Gonna have to agree.

When I sparked in Dragonball, my age was 54,260. I had done 570 jumps, could have done more but it was time to go home.

I needed a hotter forge, so I used Hell itself. Heaven took exception to that.

I remember the bullshit being Confuse Ray. Fucking Zubats, 50% of the time my ass.

Part Polish
I'm a mutt, but my Last name is VERY Polish
Let's see I've got Pole, Irish, Italian, Spanish, Mexican, and Native in me I think.
First three from my father
Last three from my mom

I loath my father

When you walk into a bars do punchlines automatically happen?

Do you mean resemble, as in are like that remark, or resent as in you don't appreciate that remark?

Never been in a bar. But I assume so yes.
Don't like beer.
I DO like Whiskey on the rare occasions I've had it.

Then again I liked Whiskey as an infant. I was teething and my Father's Uncle put a bottle of it in my mouth rather than just rubbing some on my gums, I apparently would not let go of the bottle.

"I resemble that remark" is a common joke response.

When people say "resemble that remark", they're making a joke riffing off of "resent that remark".

The idea of you getting really drinking and slurring something about justice and love is hilarious to me.

Shit. . .

All of the Witcher perks are just becoming especially good at things that all Witchers are at least somewhat skilled at anyway and the capstone is having to pay an extra 300 points for what should be free with the origin to begin with.

This means that in practice not only is the Witcher origin three times more expensive than the stronger Magic User origin but it also has no capstone perk!

Anons why haven't any of you tried to get Miller's Recipe for the Chemical Burger? youtube.com/watch?v=KUSpk-gjEuA

Last time I drank, coquito, I just got very sleepy.
I honestly wouldn't be surprised if I'm that guy who drinks, then falls asleep hugging the bottle.

But I don't drink often. Hell I haven't had anything in years.

I'm more annoyed at the diminishing companion cp, personally.

>Eniripsa

>Wakfu
Hips ahoy Captain!

Never pegged you for a taco, honestly.

Best race.

Personally, I hate that Of The Elder Blood is 800 CP but only gives meh teleportation and shitty time manipulation without the better abilities that should come with it.

I look very very VERY white.
My sister looks Mexican.
Looking at us you'd never guess we're related.

It's the worst, user.

This post has helped me to finally discover Crona's gender.
Crona is a CUTE.

You might not be.

>Best Race
>Not Xelor
Plebeian

But your taste is still acceptable, because there is no Bad race....except for Rogues, anyone who likes Rogues is shit-tier.

I have three half-siblings
The sister I'm talking about shares the same mom as me, the one who is mexican/spanish/native.

My brother and other sister share the same father as me.

While that might be a bit much it is far less egregious than a 600 point origin with no capstone while still being weaker than than the next most expensive origin that costs 1/3 the price.

Stop the Patriots, and their memes.
Defend the FOB.
Acquire Kazzy Patty.
Start from the beginning, see it through to the end.
I could only do three...
mfw those mercs used my FOB like a damn grocery store...

I have the nill tolerance going on. Second shot, and I'm out like a light.
Makes for a cheap sleep aid, though.

Well Ciri had this ability to basically teleport. You ever play Twilight Princess, Wolf Link lays down a circle. Then when you release the button Wolf Link like teleports from enemy to enemy. That's what she can do. She can also teleport like World of Warcraft's Blink.

Most her prowless comes from being trained by Geralt to be a Witcheress. She was also a Sorcereress but she gave up magic. I agree it's way too much for 800cp, it seems to be more along the line of 600cp with other capstones.

That sounds hilariously similar to myself and my sister. We look NOTHING alike, she looks full blooded.

Kon is a treasure.

>Makes for a cheap sleep aid
....
.....
>I suffer from insomnia and drinking makes me sleepy
>I never considered this
GOD DAMN IT. I'm a god damn moron

It happens.

Except the Witcher one which is just paying an extra 300 points for the basic features of an origin that already costs 300.

You'd be better off just taking the witcher capstone as another origin.

Nah, Ciri's abilities are way more than that.

Most obviously it also essentially makes her a pseudo-Planeswalker. That's like the whole reason the Wild Hunt wants her. Well, and making more babies with her powers.

It also gives huge magical reserves. Remember what she did at Later Morgen?

That is actually true, just to be a real Witcher you would have to pay 600 points. the same as the perk without the origin. Why not just abandon the shit Witcher tree and get the discounts for a origin with perks that aren't shit.

Fuuuuck, this place would be nice if I weren't forced into celibacy for a decade. Oh well, guess I'll have to make due with hand holding. It should be a simple 10 years of making friends around town. All I have to do is put up with the witches screwing with me all the time. And make sure that the people don't get corrupted by Meenah. Or Vriska. Or Terezi. Sigh... At least I'm forced to stay happy through it all anyway.

I also have to sing to get the best results out of all work I do from now on, and my singing is awful. Going to have to keep my workshops isolated from now on.

It does, it's just a thing that amused us over the years. Except she got all the recessive genes. Liquid Snake forgot to mention that ipart includes cancer, now I understand why he was so pissed off.

Except you don't become Ciri, you just get a perk that does none of those things.

>Thinking this the first time I've commented on my stupidity
YOU FOOL!

>Cancer
How my Mom, and her Dad died. It might be Genetic, we aren't sure yet.
So I have that to look forward to.

So much salt so early in the thread, good lord.

Just a reminder that Old Witchers and New Witchers aren't a thing. It is just an excuse to lock the basic features of an already overpriced origin behind a pay wall and not give it a capstone.

I cannot find generic builder in the drive can someone point me to it?

One person going on a tirade like he thinks it'll get him his way. Five year olds and their tantrums.

You mean you didn't communicate it enough in the first 50 posts?

Tell us more about the problems in Witcher and throw salt about. Certainly it will enlighten us poor, stupid cavemen.

Liquid... Mexican....

Your sister is a Mojito?

So we saw that one guys mana generator but what other big project combos have we got floating around? Have you guys built any huge massive megaprojects?

Liquid mexican is tequila user.

Which is my point.

Bruh, I'm on your side, but you need to shut up.

You know, I'd be willing to accept the perk as is for less than 800 cp, and for that matter, I'd even accept it for the current price with a mandatory Wild Hunt drawback if it worked how it should/how you'd expect it to.

...

Everyone is getting fed up with the rant. Keep it concise, keep it in one post, bring it up when the jumpmaker is around. A rant just makes people unsympathetic to your wants.

Can confirm it's not on the drive.

Same here, even though we're only half-related.

She's short, skinny and very granola. I'm...none of those things.

This, there are some good points but this whole thing is starting to seem like an angry circle jerk of people who are mad that not enough people are salty about what's pissing them off.

What can I say? A healer build's a healer build, and every little bit helps!

I don't see that Perk anywhere.

FRIENDSHIP!

Ah. I'd mostly seen people misusing it, meaning resent but saying resemble. Some instances of it make a bit more sense now. Learn something new every day.

I've got a small solar system. It works like this: Start with the scenario in Biomega that gives you an extradimensional space the size of Jupiter. You can't store things in there, but living organisms can hang out just fine. So build a biological spaceship in there, taking advantage of the full space to grow in. Make sure to make it sapient, so it counts a companion. Now, take it through the cliche size upgrades in Supreme Commander and Five Star Stories. By my rough math, it should now have something around 400 times Jupiter's volume. Many more times Jupiter's mass, on average flesh is denser than the substance of a gas giant. So you take it to X-Men Movieverse and buy it Omega Self-Molecular Manipulation, and have it rearrange its parts. Split off about fifty Jovian masses for a dwarf star, another two or so for planets, and the rest to go into a halo of asteroids and interstellar gas.

You may want to suggest your family get checked, they can do interesting things with genetic sequencing to assess your risks. Assuming of course that your insurance will pay for such.

I do not

First things first adjourn to the warehouse and see what I can learn about Tameranean genetics. After setting some computers to crunching the numbers while I contemplate my own observations we go to meet the Teen Titans, Raven especially. I ask about the possibility of an information exchange with her. I am rebuffed at first, but after occasionally helping the Titans for a while she finally consents letting me look through her collection of books and collect a genetic sample from her in exchange for looking through my library. I also offer to balance her demon side with some angelic dna, however she is rather leary of making drastic changes to herself. Meanwhile I move my base of operations to the Skaian Battleship which I place outside of Pluto's orbit while leaving a teleporter at titan tower. While there I do some testing with clones and tameranean genes to make sure I can safely augment myself with them, I successfully crack the key to the project right as I get word that Trigon has entered the human world delaying my augmentation. While my team and I aid the Titans in assaulting Trigon I manage to hack off a finger and place it in my minecraft inventory and drain a fair bit of his energy before being stopped with the assault force. Shortly thereafter Raven comes back and kicks daddy's butt home. I ask again if she wants some angelic balancing of her genes, but she claims to have made peace with herself. After the battle, when I return to my lab I finally get around to augmenting myself gaining a Tameranean's Flight, Omnilinguistic Assimilation, Self-sustenance, and Environmental Adaptation. Using the genetic material from Raven and Trigon I manage to further augment myself with Teleportation, Intangibility, and Dimensional travel as well as enhancing the durability and regeneration of my body. My friends and I continue to help the Titans on occasion, but don't really get too much further involved before it's time to leave.

off to Undertale, Soul Eater takes it's place in the queue.

Doing the Dragonlance jump. I'm only committed to being an Aurak, so what should I spend the rest of my cp on?

Alright, before you head in, how much do you know about the setting?

I know it exists, I know I have it in my steam library, I know souls are important. Beyond that, I know nothing because I have yet to actually play it.

Good luck with that, two out of the three endings will end your chain full stop and there is nothing you can do to stop Frisk from reaching the end of the game.

Shit. o_o And here I just dedicated the basement of the warehouse to storing raw material and thought it was impressive.
...with applied energestics.
...in the form of red matter from equivalent exchange.
...with the equipment upstairs to decompress and use that material on demand.

By my calculations I can store the equivalent of 1.7*10^15 cubic meters of stone, should I need it. Less of more complex material of course. The volume of the Earth is 1.08*10^12 cubic meters, by the way.

uh. what?

He's talking nonsense. You'll be fine.

One ending rips out everyone in the setting's soul and another destroys the universe with you in it, either way your chain ends.

for some reason I'm not overly comforted.

One post. So ok.

Mad Hatter, Witcher Jump is decent as is. However there's several changes that several of us would like to see.

Drop-In Elder Blood, it's a bit too much cost at 800cp for Ciri-lite. It would make sense for 800cp and Wild Hunt mandatory drawback if it was near Ciri's level. That or reduce it to 600cp.

Witcher origin is 300cp, it ough to be 100cp to put it more aligned with Sorcereress/Sage origin.

Old/New Witcher isn't really a thing, all Witchers are "old" because they're dying caste. They no longer have the knowledge of the Trails of Grass & Dreams which are essential in making new Witchers. However only 3/10 boys survive, which is part the problem.

Become A Monster seems to be a "tax" to be a normal Witcher. Effectively making the origin cost 600cp.

Ok /JC/ what else should we ask him to change?

Why would a jumper let himself be limited to the canon? Also you're wrong about your conclusions but I'll let others point out the flaws in your reasoning.

what if you are in your warehouse at the time? then you won't technically be in universe.

Just shut the fuck up already. No one wants to talk about this or read about it anymore, just fuck off with this.

Well I suppose a jumper immune to time manipulation could pull a sans and kill Frisk repeatedly for ten years to run out the clock. . .

Well, unless you take a certain drawback, you can't get the universe-destruction ending. And since in canon one character avoided the soul sucking just by not answering his door when the evil demon-vines came knocking, you'll be fine. You don't even have to hide in your Warehouse. Just pay attention to Metaton's news channel, and if you see anything about a little human child stay inside for the next couple of days.

In True Pacifist you can literally (LITERALLY) just stay inside your house and you'll be fine.

Genocide... I don't recall if the jump or the duo of makers spoke on it, but considering how everyone who's posted builds unaffect by drawbacks treated it, it's likely that the "default" (read: Jumper didn't corrupt Frisk or strengthen Chara) ending is True Pacifist, which makes Genocide's universal destruction a non-issue.

Beer.

Okay, so, here's the thing: there's a fellow named Flowey, Flowey the Flower. He looks harmless at first, except that for half the time you'll be there he can reset time, and is a sadistic, soulless jackass who is a firm believer in kill or be killed, with the ultimate goal of becoming a God and making the world his plaything. Luckily, he's fairly weak by himself, and Sans is on guard against him, and let me tell you despite his seemingly silly, lazy behavior, he's one of the most dangerous characters in the game. The Underground is filled with monsters that want to kill the fallen humans, take their souls, destroy the barrier that the humans trapped them with, and then destroy humanity. Except they're all a bunch of lovable, loving goofballs that can be persuaded fairly easily to give up on that goal.

Wait until we see him again and we can voice our complaints at that time, until then we should drop it.
I say hypocritically as the one who started this whole shitstorm with my constant bitching about the Witcher origin. . .

Where is that? I don't see anything remotely related to alcohol.

They don't even want to destroy humanity, they just want out of the Underground. They're honestly pretty nice people. Even the "kill the fallen humans" bit is due to Asgore being really unwilling to go through with all the killing. Toriel calls him out on it, points out that he only needs seven souls to get everyone out, and he could use a single soul to escape by himself, grab six more souls from outside the barrier, then break it from the outside. But he actually really doesn't want to kill a bunch of kids, so he dawdles on it and only kills them when he feels the pressure to free his subjects get really strong.

It is noted in the jump that Frisk naturally moves towards a pacifist run, yes. So, yeah, all you'd have to do to avoid a Bad End would be to shack up in a house for a couple days and not open the door for anyone.
