I'm imagining you blocking hits at me lol. Unless they're swinging for my knees your gonna need a hell of a jump lol I'm twice your size.

Did you watch bleach?

[IamanElfCollaborator]

bleach
BLEACH
BL-
Yes. The anime's pretty meh. Don't mind the manga.

Also, the solution to that would be platform shoes.

[BlitzDungeoneer]

Probably gonna rename that skill, too, Sacrifice sounds a little... Bland, I guess.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Name: Bob Lovecraft

Gender: Male

Appearance: Bob looks... odd. That is the only way anyone who has ever seen him has been able to describe it. For all intents and purposes, he looks like a completely normal teenager, if a bit on the pale side as far as skin goes. But everything about him seems off. The black of his hair seems just a bit too dark, his teeth just a bit too white, his eyes ever so slightly too wide.

Personality: Despite his appearance, Bob is pretty friendly for the most part, although he enjoys creeping people out a bit too much. He can usually be seen with a smile on his face, although just like everything else about him, that too seems... off. During combat, he enjoys to talk at his enemies, usually attempting to unnerve them, although, against AI, that doesn't work too well.

Stats: Distribute 100 points between 6 stats. Minimum is 2 in all.:

Strength: 12

Agility: 29

Dexterity: 24

Endurance: 20

Resistance: 5

Luck: 10

Sword Skills: Ritual of Accuracy: The character takes damage equal to 20% of their max health. In exchange, their next attack's to-hit chance is doubled. Limited to dagger- and knife-type weapons.

Skills: Leave this blank for now. These raise as you perform actions.

Equipment: Kitchen Knife, Basic Clothes

Money: You start with 100 Units (Does someone remember what they used as money in SAO?)

Beta Tester: No

Anything else I should know?

Still working on it, but eh. Only got a sword skill to work out.

Edited the sword skill a bit. Is that any better?

Definitely the absolute last edit(but not really).

[FallacyofUrist]

One day somebody's going to make some random manga-based character and it's going to be accepted, until late in the game someone caught the reference.

[Patrick Hunt]

Remember the captain with the little girl lieutenant riding on his back? That's us lol.

But I have a great idea for a combo sword skill ;p. If an ally other side of the room is gonna be hit I'll toss your midget ass across the room to block the attack.

[IamanElfCollaborator]

Bradley/Shiina confirmed.

You mean, non-SAO, right? Shiina and Tzuboi are basically a braver Sachi and a cuter Klein.

[BlitzDungeoneer]

Bradley/Shiina would probably be a bit awkward...

[IamanElfCollaborator]

Depends. If anyone can find Sachi's canon height, Shiina's about two inches taller than that.

Although that's still probably awkward.

[Patrick Hunt]

Hey are you doing pure tank or tank/ something else?

[IamanElfCollaborator]

Pure tank, for the irony.

[Patrick Hunt]

Lol yup that works then im doing a mix of tank and a few supporting effects to make enemies easier to hit or make them less accurate.

Twin how will loot work? Individual loot for each person or joint loot for us to distribute amongst the group?

[Adragis]

I suppose I'll have to edit my sword skill now that we've vetoed non-potion healing?

[Patrick Hunt]

I think it was specific to his skill of stabbing himself then someone else to heal them. But probably best to check just in case.

[Flying Dice]

Twin: Have you thought any about this:

Use the d100 percentile roll as a multiplier. Multiply whatever base stat is being used by the die roll taken as a percentage, and turn chance to hit into opposed rolls. Here's an example:

Player 1 has 120 AGI with no bonuses to dodge. Monster 1 has 95 DEX and a weapon with +25 Hit. Monster 1 has a base to-hit of 120, Player 1 matches that. Player 1 rolls 34, Monster 1 rolls 56. Player 1's effective AGI for the attack is 1.34 * 120 = 160.8 = 161. Monster 1's effective to-hit for the attack is 1.56 * 120 = 187.2 =187. The monster hits successfully, and you proceed to roll damage and check it vs. the player's resistance and health.

Eh, maybe it's complicated, and maybe there's a problem I didn't spot.

'cause the d100 as a flat addition to the relevant stat is going to work, but only for a little while, unless you're capping ability scores at 100 (which is sort of silly, because everyone would max out their two or three main stats fairly early on, and would also leave you nowhere to go with monster and equipment scaling).

Unrelated: How are you going to manage Switching? It was pretty damned core to SAO's combat, arguably even more so than Sword Arts.


e: Also, I'm down for a playtest this afternoon.

[Patrick Hunt]

Was it? In the anime I don't remember it showing up much after the first boss battle other then with Kirito and Asuna
