Timageness Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 Not really a big thing, but I've been seeing some people confuse arrows and bolts lately, so I thought I'd bring it up in order to clear some stuff up.Arrows cover more distance than bolts, and are for bows, while bolts are about a half to two-thirds as long as a normal arrow, and are for crossbows; the two really aren't all that interchangeable. While an argument could be made that the weapons could be specifically created to fire ammo of the other type, a crossbow that fired arrows would be unnecessarily large and cumbersome, which would affect its manueverability, while a bow that shot bolts would make its wielder look more like a Cherub (a.k.a. Cupid) than a terrifying killing machine.

The UltimoScorp Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 Agh no bad You don;t pull arrows out. unless maybe they're smooth tip arrows.

Of course, the ropes would have to be incredibly thin, otherwise they'd weigh down the arrow too much for it to be particularly effective at mid/long distance. Naturally, if that were the case, said ropes could quite easily be broken.

Khromatose Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 (edited) I just realized that use have a Rahkshi Staff of Shapeshifting?Technically characters don't start off with one. You'd have to get one ingame. And the crossbow could basically act in the same way as a grapple gun. It just has more offensive value. Maybe I could do that with Bullseye's and Toxin's grapple guns.

Sergei Rahkmaninoff Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 (edited) Did you read the Kraata powers chart? http://biosector01.com/wiki/index.php/Kraata_Variations Check level two Shapeshifting (that's what you are.) You can probably stretch a bit, I might even say go so far as to say you could grow blades out of your fists, Wolverine style, but becoming a magma beast, or a Manas, or a Tarakava, is not going to happen.

His opponent had said no controlling the gym... he'd brought it down on himself. Fighting through the pain, Mantis willed six thick pikes to emerge out of the chambers walls, aiming to stab Rail just enough to get him to let go and let them continue battle. Dude, you can't use the gym to directly attack people. That's just plain unfair. Besides, Rail only created those walls to stop other people interfering in the fight; he didn't break his word to Mantis.

Whether it's spikes coming from the walls, moving pillars that try to crush people in between them, or simply manipulating the floor so that a falling adversary lands in a pool of acid, these are still direct attempts to use the gym to damage a foe, thus treating the gym as a weapon. Under that previous statement, the remaining things we'd be able to do with it (such as slightly changing a character's elevation or creating more adhesive surfaces beneath their feet) would be so miniscule and unnecessary that we might as well not be using the room's functionality at all.What I actually agreed to back when that conversation was taking place, was that the gym shouldn't be used to block attacks unrealistically (insta-walling a projectile so that it doesn't hit you would be a fine example of this), since the gym couldn't react fast enough to prevent an attack in progress. Since Aerixx did not do that, I personally have no issues with the way he attacked because it wasn't an auto-hit and it was completely and realistically dodgeable, thus keeping the attack inside the realm of fair play.

I've always thought that the gym could only create stationary objects, to be honest. Nothing that moves after its finished.... growing.... or whatever it is the gym does to create them. As I understand it, (and maybe we should get a final ruling from Ultron to settle this once and for all) the agreement was to stop using the gym to directly intervene in fights: blocking attacks, and delivering them. For example, there's a difference between summoning up a wall and hiding behind it, and creating a wall in front of you just in time to block an enemy's attack. Likewise, creating some spikes on the wall and trying to push your opponent into them is different to creating spikes that grow towards your opponent while you try to hold them still. The gym is supposed to be the ground the students fight on, not an active participant in their battles.
