Snow White did nothing Right

Revenge Upon The Doctor, The Last Remaining Purpose

I'll drink to that.

I'd like an option for Velvets...Semblance? Aura? Weapon? Whatever that was. Mostly because i'm a big fan of copying powers and techniques.

>Mages

>Have a spell for any situation, can function on offense, defense, or support
>Can do lots of useful, everyday tricks outside of combat
>Get sweet robes
>Can summon up minions whenever they feel like it
>Studying the mysteries of the universe is more fulfilling then just working out every day

Seriously, why would anyone not do a magic build?

Because there's a visceral thrill to punching something in the face. That said, it's often possible to use magic to enhance your face-punching skills, so still study it even if you want to be a face-puncher.

I'd like an option, admittedly high CP option, to be a maiden. Season powers a best.

>Copying a weapon/power that copies other weapons/powers.
But yeah, more Semblance options would be nice.

>Not being a Warrior
>Not having muscles so hard that they can break magic
>Not having muscles so big that they can FUEL magic
Haha, what a nerd.

>Not crusading for the holy land on your jetpack in the name of *Garbled whirling sounds*

Fucking unclean filth

>He can't use muscle mystery to do all that and more
laff

>doing any sort of specialist build when diminishing returns exists.

I'm working on my Board of Directors and Central Branch (my Dimension from Occult DC) right now. GENOM is growing.

Perk to be a Maiden in exchange for it being expensive and coming with a mandatory drawback.

Something to replicate Raven's portal opening thing and her and Qrow's power to become a bird. The whole Summoning thing Weiss and her family have. Maybe Silver Eyes, since they don't seem to be that big of a deal given that the Salem WTCH Project doesn't seem to see them as a serious threat?

Is the Belt of the Infernal Battle Armor just as indestructible as the Aegis of the Overlord? I prefer my armor invulnerable.

>Not taking a social build
>Not getting a million billion allies to do all that for you

Probably not as indestructible, given that the Aegis of the Overlord is designed to be tough as shit, but artifacts in Exalted tend to be ridiculously tough.

In general, artifacts in Exalted are extremely durable. They're not completely unbreakable, but armor will almost never fail in the line of duty, someone has to be intentionally trying to destroy your armor instead of hurt you directly in order to do it.

A cybernetic limb(s) option under Augments, probably discounted to Students and Military. Also, I guess something else discounted to Drop-ins and Criminals to even it out.

My only concern about that is that their powers are still so vaguely defined. Maybe all our questions will be answered before the season's up, but I wouldn't count on it.

Maybe ask for the jump to let you swap genders for free, then you can just go collect the powers yourself?

My main concern is that I don't want to be naked after being hit with some horrible fuck off beam. Would it be more durable than a physical focused jumper?

Enough Semblances so that if you import a Full Team, they can each buy and have a unique Semblance. Maybe have two for each Origin, on top of Represent and Abyssal? And not just carbon copies of canon Semblances.

An option like Aura Implants and Dust Grafts that makes you a Grim Hybrid. Maybe make it discounted to Drop-Ins and Criminals, complimented by a Cybernetic Enhancement option as suggests for Students and Military.

>Maybe ask for the jump to let you swap genders for free, then you can just go collect the powers yourself?
The gender swap isn't a problem so long as it's offered or you can shapeshift. The issue with acquiring it yourself is that the process doesn't guarantee that the maiden abilities will work outside of that jump.

I'll grant that they're partially undefined, but making it an expensive option and spelling out that they're season-themed powers would be enough IMO.

>he whole Summoning thing Weiss and her family have
That's kinda covered by the Abyssal Semblance

YJ_user,
Can you transfer memories with Deal With The Devil? Skills?
If you use healing magic with Faustian Bargain, does it go back in time? Would a resurrection spell make it like they had never died? Would a curse show up years before the deal?
Can you transfer Spirit of Justice with a Devil's Deal?
If you retcon a kingdom with Faustian Bargain, does it retroactively use your policies?

>Not being a Magic Knight with Magitech Equipment.
It's like you want to be taken off guard when someone with decent Antimagic shows up.

I think the Armor has more chances of surviving a horrible fuck off beam than the jumper wearing it.

In universe, it requires a ridiculous amount of effort and charms specifically designed to destroy them to...erm, destroy them in universe. Yes, it will be more durable then most physical focused jumpers.

Yeah, but Weiss can seemingly summon anything she beats/kills. She summoned the sword of that one knight thing from the White trailer to slice a mech into pieces.

Doesn't Drain No mean there's no such thing?

Because it's more fun for me to go Punch-Fight.
But Gamer is a Magic Build, kinda. He more focuses on Summoning and Buffs, but he's a Mage.

That's why I said "kinda" not "is"

Generic fantasy world. Crush drawback enemies then have adventures.

The real draw here is finding the Dofus so I can become a god. My followers, Jumper's Doves, look like Homestuck Trolls. My commandments deal with peace and justice.

I'm a little shy about being worshiped though. The people willing to worship me are the ones most willing to follow my ideology anyway, and turning them into aliens is just going to put people off and turn them against me. Plus I'm a really shitty god, what with not being able to hear prayers.

>Military: Boost
>Passive Semblance, the physical boosts granted by aura are much stronger for you than they are for other people

How are these? I'm stuck on drop-in, which probably needs another "meta" Semblance.

Given the hardlight nature, I think Highlighter would fit better.

>Not wanting to be an alien

That doesn't seem like it would stop effects that act on the spell rather than you.

>Eniripsa's Hands
This takes me back.

Eh. Forgotten Realms as a Cleric, then learn to be an Initiate of Mystra, then. You can use magic even in places where magic doesn't work. Of course, you have to be a Cheater of Mystra, but whatever.

Excellent, that will serve my needs well then.

For Drop In, what about something like Ozpin's ability, which allowed him to move so fast (or manipulate time) that he created after images while he destroyed the projectiles that Cinder threw at him.

...actually, how did Cinder win that fight? From what we were seeing, he had the upper hand and was winning almost casually.

Maybe he used a lot of Aura for each of his abilities and she just outlasted him?

>Ozpin threw the fight so Cinder would destroy Arkos
It all adds up.

From what some people assmad about the plot last season have told me, there was literally no one capable of causing her any significant problems, so clearly it was her plot armor.

But what is his true ship?

He ships a Yang/Jaune/Sun threeway. He has a thing for blondes.

Would the If It Bleeds perk work on Dementors if your "knife" is a lightsaber? Because, well, heck, I want to go lightsabering my way through an army of Dementors.

Hmm. What's the plural form for Dementors anyway? Army? Horde? Nest?

Lancaster. Ruby has silver eyes, and Jaune caught Tyrian's interest, so there must be something there. Pairing them together makes sense.

Drop in can negate supernatural powers with Jam, maybe they get one that lets them do the opposite and supercharge the supernatural?

Might be too powerful for companion focused builds, however.

There's a capstone perk for that in M:tAw. Unbound Casting, I think? I'd reckon it'd work on magic armor.

>Ozpin is a Shipper
I'd buy it.

Besides, he wouldn't be the first monstrously powerful yet mysterious figure to Ship people.

Harry/Hermione for life!

A sigh of dementors.

So, I started getting into jumpchain finally after meandering around wondering if i should start or not, and after a handful of jumps I'm wanting to categorize the pdfs i pulled from the drive better, but first I want to pull out all the final jumps

so other than drangonball, which jumps are fully considered final jumps?

That's the only one. Any other endjump has a scenario, +0 Drawback, or something in that vein.

Cthulhu, go back to working on gamer.

Warhammer 40k: Freelancer
Gurren Lagann
Tenchi Muyo
Darksiders
Heroic Age
Devil Survivor 2

40k Freelancer.

i guess that makes things a lot easier then in terms of categorizing

thanks

on an unrelated note, shoutouts to Tropico, Sitcoms and Futurama for making my first few jumps and base build hilarious

should have guessed for 40k and Gurren since they are outrageous in their own ways

Change Military to something Movement related. I'm not sure what, but none of the current Semblances are movement related. I like Parasite, i'm bored of precog Perks but I'm not sure what else you could change Sight to (although I like the idea of Student having something that makes them better at gathering information). Make it so that the Drop-In Semblances works similarly to Blake's Semblance, but instead of your self, it somehow allows you to generate Clones of enemies.

Is arcane fate from sidereals worth taking? The 'written records of you fade away' part is making me want to take it, but I don't really have the cp.

No. Dementors have no special vulnerability to lasers or plasma. You'd need something which could actually damage them, like (for example) magic weaponry from D&D

Some sort of enhanced sensory power? See through walls, around corners, into other spectrums?

Did you even read the perk?

I'm getting this feeling right now that I need to point out, you can't replace/update someone elses jump. Only the jumpmaker can do that.

Cinder/Emerald
He wanted his hurt/comfort damn it.

So what happens if I imported a Companion as my Unwoven Coadjutor, and then via The Face of the Titans I subsume them?

No, but it's the one that lets you kill things if you beat them in a fair fight.

You dick.

since when is tenchi muyo a jump that grants you a spark? the endgame scenario is for a setting specific uberperk after which you continue your chain.

This is the worst fanwank I've ever seen.

For those of you who have jumped Hero BBS, is it common to companion anyone besides the Dachi sisters? Seems like the swords are really popular, but I'm curious to hear about other choices that jumpers took.

I'm probably going to grab Tsundachi anyways, but since I'm going to start a new chain with Hero BBS, I'm considering inviting along a veteran or retired Hero as a mentor and possible future romantic interest.

I'm assuming Sky Garden's Magician is popular for his brand of powerful magical insanity, but I'm sort of wanting to go for someone different (or in addition to). Maybe Princess Shrine Maiden with her drunken antics, one of the Battle Maid trio for scary violence, or Legal Loli for foul-mouthed shenanigans?

Anyways. Who did you companion from Hero BBS?

>is it common to companion anyone besides the Dachi sisters?

A full set is expensive and I think they're a must have.

>since when is tenchi muyo a jump that grants you a spark? the endgame scenario is for a setting specific uberperk after which you continue your chain.
You are both retarded and a newfag. Congratulations, you have discovered a way to multiply two negatives and get a negative.

Dumbass.

Why then does "Dimensional Technology Mastery" give the usual "this doesnt give you the power the jump/travel universes independently" that other dimension travel perk do.

Is there one build in Infernals that didn't go Devil-Tiger. Even remotely one.

No, because not going Devil Tiger is stupid.

Yes to memories and skills.

The healing would, but the resurrection would resurrect them after they died instead of making it look like it never happened in the first place. Curse is okay if they agreed to it.

Spirit of Justice can be transferred.

As for the kingdom, that's a no; it'd still be in the same state as it was when it was traded to you, it's just that others would think it was you that ruled it instead of the king. You could change policy afterwards though.

Look guy, it's a 3 part jump with the final part being an end jump. Those final three perks are purely part of the end jump scenario. You get them for taking the end jump scenario, not for finishing it. Which is to say that you can use them during the end jump.

It's been that way since the jump was created. There has been zero change from when the jump was first created and hashed out in thread. The jump maker is gone and no amount of complaining about it months, if not years, after the fact will change that.

Find a new bone to chew.

So with continuing to improve your soul whether through perks like Strong Soul or just things like making it a self contained universe and all the other stuff you do as an Exalt/Devil Tiger, do you think Aura scales?

I used Orphan-Cub to effectively inherit a Devil-Tigered Exaltation from myself, and became a Yoziclone of what I would have been as a Primordial.

Also, the only paths other than Devil-Tiger is to either stop growing or become a copy of someone else. What are you even expecting?

I married the queen I saved and companioned her, although I used a return to do it.

She's a good, effective leader. Very patient. Very soft for cuddles ^u^

There's no other point in the jump existing.

Unlikely. Why bother trying to assemble the powers you want out of other Yozi's themes, when you can design the exact thing you want?

Actually the clause that says "it's gotta be a pretty fair fight" is when you're fighting things like "really big gods".

Aha, here we go: archive.4plebs.org/tg/thread/35484924/#q35489860
>Go ahead, so long as it's something small enough you, personally, are using it. Being the guy aiming an artillery piece or piloting a spaceship doesn't count. The key is that; it's not magic, it's not some insta-death thing, and it's you personally. The dramatic tension is the key.

So a lightsaber should be fine, so long as Jumper plays to the camera and goes mano-a-mano (mano-a-wraitho?) against the Dementors.

Exalted's devs have explicitly come out and said that not going devil-tiger means you're getting played as a sucker by the Yozis. As much as they can in a gameline thry've also tried very hard to emphasise vagueness and personal autonomy in.

Depends on what you mean.
Didn't get Orphan Cub? I know I didn't get it
Didn't get the Inner World/Demons Perks? Those are really cool, and rather pricey. 1100 points for the full set, ignoring Akuma.
Didn't go Devil-Tiger in-universe without perks? No reason not to, at all.

You need to be able to hurt them in order to kill them. The perk doesn't get rid of all resistances and immunities, it just means that when something dies it stays dead. Dementors can't be hurt by physical means, therefore If It Bleeds won't let you kill one with a lightsaber.

Word of advice?
>^u^
No
We don't do that here

Does Aura have scales? Why don't you ask her?

I'd ask you to justify your stance or shut up, but it's obvius you're just scouting a new target to shit on.

...

It is not, actually. Check back in the archives, Muyo user said that this was poor wording on his part and it's intended to be an end jump, with those "uberperks" being post-spark bonuses like some other jumps offer.

Again, poor writing on Muyo user's part.

If you like being socially invisible then it's nice, but the side effect of being socially invisible is a bit of a pain.
Having it on a toggle is amazing in jump though since you'd be the only sidereal in setting to be able to do that.

I only plan on Importing a couple Companions. I only bought Dandachi, sans Personality. For the record, I Imported the Stake Driver from Bloodborne.

This is a tentative build I made. I try to avoid popular choices and walk the path less-traveled. I plan on using Temple of Thought from Binbougami Ga so that I can wield all of my Infernal Might with the Exaltation of my choice (which will probably be Sidereal or Lunar). Keep in mind that I'm only have about the first 20 or so Jumps set in stone, and I plan on putting this somewhere very near to the end, at least past the 500+ Jump mark. Also, my totals might be off.

You combine and become an even greater dick then you were before.

I'm not complaining and yes I understand how and when you get the perk. It's just that the jump doesnt mention the spark so I assumed that it was chain-continue afterwards.

Look. The only Exalts worth getting are either Solar (which we should've gotten before fucking Terrestrials) or Infernals for the Devil-Tiger. Until we get Solars, there's always going to be only One Build for Infernals.

My spirit familiars. The jump lets you customize what sort of magic the setting you land in has. I ripped off Totemist Quest because I miss Diarca. So I podded my most useful spirit allies.

Without out of jump methods to live longer you burn out if you don't. There's also no real reason not too. Like you dont' lose anything and gain a fuckton. It's just how infernal progression works.
Going Yozi is ID death, even a Yozi of yourself is bound by your themes.

Thank you for clarifying

Heh. It'd be ironic if Dementors could actually be easily killed by a bullet to the head, but the wizards never figured that out because of assuming if magic couldn't kill them nothing else could (and the fact that a muggle with a gun is usually too busy getting their soul sucked out to be able to shoot straight).
