You thought of this band stuff instead of working on the sprite comic? You're crazy! =P

Mind you, it sounds awesome! But it sounds like something quite needlessly complicated at the moment. That's like another 5 or 6 characters in the formation providing buffs in the form of music. It's pretty much extra work for you and more things for us to argue about. And that's before stuff like morale, fumble chance, what sort of effects they can do, how they work (is it multiple buffs like one per musician or is it one buff that grows more potent per musician?), if foes can interfere or even have their own band... god, this is sounding more like Brutal Legends every passing second.

Anyhow, I hope your flight and trip goes well.

I'm just surprised at how slow things have gotten. Would have figured that breaking the party into more manageable chunks would make it easier. ^^;
Ah well, everyone got their thing to do. Currently studying at the moment. After class tomorrow, I'll see if I can't come up with some suggestions for Bard/Dante and hopefully finalize a battle plan with Gem. I'm sure some of the stuff we've been discussing on PMs can be dealt with in the form of a flashback at a more convenient time.

EDIT: Bard, your plan looks ok for the most part. Entei can use Extrasensory, which Ruin types are weak against (Best to target Pulverot with Entei's Extrasensory since they are Ruin/Fighting type and thus quad weak to psychic moves). And Melanie can give Kyrie some X Attacks to boost Kirie's power. Do that enough times perhaps and Kirie can go ballistic with her multiple attack signature technique once she reaches 80 rage. Which is after 2 turns of attacking if neither Entei or Kirie gets hit. Sooner if they do. Anyhow, the Gendom is quad weak to Steel, so you could attack with that after the guards protecting it are dealt with. Too bad the Narchams aren't quad weak to anything. Dark types are only weak to bug and fighting and ruin types are neutral to bug and immune to fighting.

Brutal Legend?

... Nah, I'm thinking more like this RP is turning into Ar Tonelico.

Which makes more sense, considering AB.

I was going to change it to exrasensory, but I was much too lazy too edit it at all with all the free time I have had.

Like, if you measured my laziness in sleep, then I would have enough to knock out all of nuklear power, but instead, I used it on myself.

And I believe we have jumped too many sharks to stop now. Band buff thing sounds wacky enough to be possible.

Melanie: X-attack on Kirie

As you can see. I fucking hate Pulverot A and Narcham B.

If either one of these foes perish, direct remaining forces to Pulverot I.

There, edited plan.

Double posting just because.

Whoa, whoa.

Let's not get hasty here.

Do we really want to see the bottom of the barrel? I mean, I'm usually the first one to go for something like that, but in this case it has the potential to go disasterous. And not fun disaster, either.

Just a little reminder Bard that Medics can use two items a turn. So she could put both X Attack on Kyrie. Also, you might want to have Kyrie buffed before she attacks. That and you'd want Super Fang to hit first so to take out the biggest chuck as possible.

Proposed revision of your plan, changing nothing but the order and giving Kirie an extra X attack.

Quote:

Melanie: Two X-attack on Kirie
Charlotte: Spits to use Super Fang on Pulverot A. Hammond to use Dragon Claw on Narcham B
Kirie: Morphstrike (dragon) on Pulverot A. Entei to use extrsensory on Pulverot A.
Matt: Psychic on Pulverot A
Cassus: Dragonite to use Dragon Rush on Pulverot A. Scizorto use x-scissor on Narcham B.

Gem, reposting the battle plan for our side here. Also, I edited it slightly because I did a little rereading the past discussions and apparently Engineer constructions count as free actions according to AB.

Quote:

Lola: Chimecho form. Use Gravity. X attack on Kurika? (X defense items would be useless against Almighty Type attacks)
Whitney: Shedninja and Armaldo both use X-Scissor on Kill dolls A and B for STAB damage, while keeping herself out of combat for the time being.
Kurika: Nerve Strike (Electric type despite kill dolls not having any nerves) for super effective damage on Kill Doll C.
Mirror: Build Fire Evolith. Bone Breaker on Kill Doll F
Fire Evolith: Casts Heat Wave, hitting kill dolls D and E with slayer-ish power.

Alternatively, if you want to risk getting knocked out, Impact is out instead of Kurika and Sweeps 2 side by side Kill dolls with water or electric weapon and Lola uses either X Attack or Special Attack (depending on what attack stat you're attacking with). Accuracy won't be an issue, courtesy of Gravity.
