Endless Sea (Alaki Nuva) Posted October 5, 2014 Share Posted October 5, 2014 Depends what it is I guess.Laser vision travels at the speed of light, heat vision travels at the speed of...heat Nooooope. Laser Vision, contrary to what physics might say, does not travel at the speed of light. Not even close. Substantially slower than that. Still quick, but it isn't an unavoidable speed of light strike. That would be very OP. So.... Maser vision? That just makes it more powerful! I'm curious about the thought process that led to that response. 1 It is not for us to decide the fate of angels. Dominus Temporis, if you're out there, hit me up through one of my contacts.

Toatapio Nuva Posted October 5, 2014 Share Posted October 5, 2014 Lightspeed is probably variable anyways. Time and space are quite obviously warped in the BZPRPG.Indeed. In Bzprpg, minutes can take days and weeks may pass within mere hours. Someone must've broken the mask of time.

Keeper of Kraata Posted October 5, 2014 Share Posted October 5, 2014 A Maser is a laser that's goes slower than the speed of light. It passes through things slower, doing more damage. It was a joke, regardless of my disuse of smilies. The times, they are a-changing... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Not Quite Dead Posted October 5, 2014 Share Posted October 5, 2014 (edited) Hmm, spacey-timey distortions make me wonder if gravity users can make themselves invisible in some way. Some sort of bending space-time to reflect electromagnetic waves. EDIT: Although I doubt anyone understands this IC >__> But if anyone, gravity, magnetism and electrical elementals probably have the most science knowledge.

Nato G Posted October 5, 2014 Share Posted October 5, 2014 On the subject of gravity users, BS01 says they can create Black Holes. Is that still doable in the RPG, or was it removed for being too OP?

Geardirector Posted October 5, 2014 Share Posted October 5, 2014 A Toa of Gravity can only effectively create a Black Hole by way of a Nova Blast. Nova Blasts are banned, so no black holes. Any other species with elemental powers (Skakdi, Turaga) probably wouldn't be powerful enough to pull it off anyway. BZPRPG Profiles Nuparu-Ferron-Mar-Zelvin-Wiremu-Farzan-Mako-Krex-Tamachan-???

Keeper of Kraata Posted October 5, 2014 Share Posted October 5, 2014 (edited) No, a gravity user can create black holes, I aksed earlier in the thread. They are small and controlled, but it is possible. I was under the same impression; I just don't want to consider what a nova blast's destruction is like.

Not Quite Dead Posted October 5, 2014 Share Posted October 5, 2014 Do you really see a black hole as being anything but overpowered? It's instant gameover in the same way if everyone just channeled elemental powers into people's head. ...but close to it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keeper of Kraata Posted October 5, 2014 Share Posted October 5, 2014 1) takes a while for the singularity to form, easy to tell. On top of that, guess what the Toa is doing all this time? 2) event horizon is tiny. Can be resisted before that. The times, they are a-changing...

Krayzikk Posted October 5, 2014 Share Posted October 5, 2014 Black holes, as far as I'm aware, are banned. What is permitted, though I had to do some chatting with my colleagues to verify, is a bit more along the lines of what the Snowshoe Lord did back in Ko-Wahi. Make gravity, within a certain area, pull towards a certain spot. Similar to a black hole in effect, but there isn't an event horizon to be concerned about. And it can be resisted, though with difficulty. Anyone tries to pull a black hole, though, I'll be watching very carefully. It happened once, but it was a whole team of Ba-Toa, and it was part of a staff smite, not everyday use. So, as far as I'm aware, no, it is not permitted. 1 On this eve, the thirtieth anniversary of that first colony, many are left to wonder; is the world fast approaching a breaking point?

Nato G Posted October 5, 2014 Share Posted October 5, 2014 A staff smite? That sounds delightful. Thanks for answering my questions; it seems my dead-but-not-dead-cuz-I-read-something-wrong Dark Toa of Gravity will not be sucking anyone into any black holes anytime soon. Oh well.

shadow pridak money gang Posted October 5, 2014 Share Posted October 5, 2014 (edited) I don't remember asking any of you. Stop. Thing 1 is right, and black holes aren't allowed out of the sheer reason that they're black holes. It's not our job to inform you of common sense ruling. Anyone who contests it can come to me.
