...There's an "Edit" button.

Yah, but that doesn't remove posts altogether

It's more to say that there was no reason for you to multipost at all.

What I'm saying is. This should be causing severe longterm brain damage and possible strokes and seizures in the shortterm. There is no way in hell something that does the listed effects is safe.

Come to think of it, it reminds me of those Combat Stims that Marines can use in Starcraft series. It hurts them quite a bit but they seems to run a bit faster and shoot a nice bit faster too. Need to be paired up with medics to heal them, though.

And I can see this as an equalvant to Nitro-injection for cars, Gives a boost to speed and RPM in a hurry temporary, but it definitely can't be healthy to the engine.

And about the time-to-activation. 3 seconds sounds a bit fast, since I believe Inhaling Cyanide takes about 7 or so seconds before you lose coincoiusness and die. And that's the fastest acting chemical in the world that's sole purpose was to kill you.

I could be wrong, of course.

Not to mention the combat stims in starcraft are specifically used on Convict Troops (The majority of the Terran troops are convicts lorewise.). Implying that it's so dangerous that they don't let nonconvicts use them. Likely due to the longterm effects.

[vkiNm]

You don't see the Medics or the specially-trained Ghosts or any other non-convict units use them, yeah. Not even those Vulture bikers!

Mercenary Marines uses them, though. Maybe they wanted to go down blazing?

Kevak. Please stop trying to grind out all fun with logic. We are in a universe where you just fought a dragon on the other side of an alien portal. I don't like how you try to apply logic only to things you don't like. Furthurmore, you can think that the drug causes seizures or whatever, but i don't see the point in trying to snuff the potential out of a really good resource for the team.

Also: @VK I'm changing it to 10 seconds then.

[vkiNm]

I think we can make it work after some balancing.

[LordPorkins]

Ok, thats what i like to hear. Whats your thoughts?

[~Neri]

Outside of the relatively small number of supernatural things. Everything has been highly realistic. Down to the way injuries work. I'm not grinding out fun with logic. I'm grinding out things that based on the current level of realism, make no sense.

It works after major balancing. As previously stated.

So... how did he invent the serum, when he has pretty much no chemical making skills (aside from First Aid I, which doesn't really count)? I don't actually have anything against the serum itself, I just don't see how he could make it.

[LordPorkins]

There weren't any chemical related skills save herbology. Also, the skills listed are only ones several people have access to. Im the only chem guy at them moment.

[~Neri]

Now that I look at it. He doesn't have chemistry knowledge. the "there wasn't any skill listed for it" excuse doesn't really work when you have a different made up skill of "pressure points" there.

[vkiNm]

Could swap pressure points out and maybe some other skills in favor of more Chemistry.

Or we could say the drug was a pre-existing thing already and that he didn't invent it, that might work too.

[~Neri]

Still gonna need major major drawbacks.

[vkiNm]

I'm thinking some sort of muscle burns and brain numb. Or a really bad hangover headache at least. After some hyper activities maybe?
