That'll work

Additionally, rewritten dust rules... again.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Dust affinity utilizing attacks are generally good for causing status buffs and debuffs.  However, you are limited by the number of dust attacks you can use per battle.  You get one rank at 5, two at 10, 3 at 20, 4 at 30, 5 at 50, 6 at 70, 7 at 110, 8 at 150 and so on.  Additionally, Your combat momentum does not increase in rounds where you activate dust effects.  For each rank of dust affinity, you may make two dust based attacks during a battle.

Fire:        Blind: -dust skill to damage%,
              Burn: 1 through max dust skill*10 for 3 rounds or forgo an action to dispel on a successful hit,
              Fire wall: If Enemies using Weapons skill, or an equivalent semblance skill to hit you while fire wall is active take a standard attack using your dust affinity.

Ice:         Freeze: damage + enemy can not attack next turn on a successful hit
              Barrier: dust skill * 10 to defense for 2 rounds
              Embrittle: Enemy takes 25% more damage per round.

Lightning: Paralyze: damage + enemy combat momentum does not increase for any reason for two rounds
              Disable: no weapon skill for 2 rounds.
              Shocked: enemy cannot active defend for two turns
             
Wind:      Sprint: Sprint: momentum +2 for 1 round.
              Bullet stop: no dust effects can harm you or the opponent for 2 rounds.
              Concussion: damage + enemy loses 1 momentum.

If you have a special dust type that you use, (like Ruby's cross marked high recoil shots)  I can make effects for it.

It's more or less what Maeve's clothes are made of.

[kj1225]

Does using dust in a non-combative way still use up an attack?

Also, Ian use a certain type of dust to harden potatoes for use as grenade shells. So like, maybe an earth dust type thing?

Actually, Void, do you mind if I respec Maeve since you're going to do all this respecing of Dust and stuff? There's a flaw I'd like to add to her anyway.

[SOLDIER First]

Oh.
Um.
Whoops.






edginess Hit first dust?

No.
Yes.  I've been meaning to make that...

Go right ahead.

I don't understand.

[SOLDIER First]

Like, a dust effect that allows you to hit the enemy before they hit you, regardless of anything that would prevent that.
Or something.

Stats: 110/110
Aura: 40
Weapon Skill: 10
Dust Affinity: 30
Semblance Skill: 30

Flaw: Sadism: Maeve can get carried away with causing pain to her opponents without regard to actual damage inflicted, causing her to gain less momentum with Dust affinity attacks. (This basically nerfs Maeve's Shniomh Scath, as it's the only Dust-based weapon that isn't necessarily limited to 3 attacks like most others due to the unique nature of her weapon).

I elected to nerf Shniomh Scath because from what I know, according to the agreement we made (treat Maeve's Dust Affinity as Weapon Skill, I'll have to find the quote somewhere later), it's the only weapon that's allowed to make infinite Dust-based attacks per battle by technicality.

Is this okay?

Unfortunately, I don't really use initiative in combat, If someone is using a skill that prevents them from taking damage in a round, I defer to that skill.  However, if you want it, it feels like it would be an effect of a blend of wind and lightning dust.

I remember that quote and I'm upset that I forgot in that last battle. 
The sadism flaw is character appropriate.  However, shadow weave is the same as a weapon, your primary means of increasing your own CM.  It has no alternative effect unlike other dust attacks and it is still your weapon skill that determines active defense.  So I see it as sort of like how Braith has 60 points in his semblance.  If you want me to use it I will, but I'm attempting balance for awesome's sake not for balance's.
Also, I see that you can select another semblance effect now.

[IamanElfCollaborator]

Alright. I'll change Maeve's weapon to rely on Weapon Skill instead. Sadism will now affect her weapon use in general as she doesn't even use Dust to begin with.

Also, I'll take back Maeve's Thunder Glyph for her new effect.
