gatz posted:Celerity with guns? Explain your playstyle to me a little more. With celerity, your guns speed up with you. So you can fire a whole lot of bullets, very quickly, and keep away from enemies. Toreador also get auspex which is "press button for more gun damage."

Tehan posted:What I'm hearing here is that Ghostbusters is a plausible MtA campaign. It's a great Technocracy campaign. The sinister mage cabal has been riling up New York and convincing the populace that ghosts are a real thing with small scale manifestations and natural hysteria, so the local amalgam turns their own tactics against them with "cutting edge ghost busting technology". It was the NWO guy who decided to make few bucks off the headache and stay in the black.

Slashers like Gimble are crazy and usually stronger than they have any right to be, but he's still just human and gets creamed pretty quickly in game.

TheMcD posted:That fight is the first boss fight in the main quest, right? Gimble was only part of a sidequest and is fairly easy, but the first boss you're required to go up against is one tough motherfucker. I think - it could have been the second one you fight, too. I think he means the one in Knox's sidequest.

Sword Hunter Gil posted:No. The mass enlightenment of the human spirit into what may or may not be collective supergodhood via the manipulation of money and the concept of money as an underpinning definition of reality and thus the Consensus is the Syndicate's theoretical endgame. With very slight modification, this describes all the technocratic conventions.

So, X-media is a Russian youtube partner and pseudo umbrella group that is known for being trigger happy when trying to "protect" the LPers that produce for them. You are being hit by an automated system. You could try to dispute the claim and end run to someone at Google. Also, bug X-media and try to get them to reverse their claim, although who knows how that will work.

I get how much he puts into this game, like, whole entire sets of first person wavy-hand animations for disciplines, but some of it really disrupts the flow (like aforementioned hand animations stopping me from spamming blood magic.) It wouldn't be a problem if I didn't like half of the stuff in the plus patch and dislike the other half.

The Technocracy may need to model their magic as Enlightened Science (and they do, all their stuff works on some kind of scientific principle, however much they cheat) but there's nothing stopping a techno that's been thrown out an airlock from using some of the experimental telekinetic techniques that the neurology team have been working on. It's just something that's not done often. In fact, a Technocrat probably has a number of ill-defined low profile devices that can be hand-waved into all sorts of "non-locality effector field" bullshit implanted in his body. They'd just trigger paradox if a normal, un-Enlightened citizen saw them, unlike his super-gun or scanner drones.

Wanderer posted:There are colonies and chantries all over the solar system that are populated largely by mages, their families, and their allies, most of whom are Sons of Ether or Void Engineers. Unfortunately, once you go live in space, you're trading the dangers of Paradox and human society for occasional raids by the Nephandi, Marauders and various Deep Umbral critters, which means you're now playing a bizarre hybrid of SPACE: 1999 and Call of Cthulhu. Post Anima Storm, a lot of those far-away sanctuaries were destroyed or cut off from the rest of humanity. That's why the leadership of the Technocracy are gone, and it's why the Void Engineers have grounded everyone else and are incredibly overworked fighting Threat Null.

You wouldn't have to get below the blast, just far enough away from it. Enough Celerity and you could pick out a nearby rooftop to aim for.

You really have to admire all the work Jack put into this stuff. People wouldn't normally freak out about an old sarcophagus being turned up, but it ends up surrounded by a bunch of guys who look like they were killed by a vampire, because they were, and looking like it was opened from the inside, because that's where Jack was. Then he filled it full of C4 and swam ashore. Maybe took a boat, he's a pirate. Then he just waits for the lucky winner to blow himself to pieces, which they're going to do because they can all sense Caine and think it's a 3rd gen.

Kulkasha posted:So is there a specific term/race for vampires that only feed on other vampires, aside from the andedeluvians? I'm thinking something like the hinge-jaws from Blade 2. It's not really in the mechanics for OWoD, just a thing that is in the setting. It's a consequence of a high power stat in NWoD, but they don't look any different.
