If Mihawk is defeated by a PC, does the next PC after the WSS title challenge the PC to a canon BG or something?

BGs are never canon, you will need to find them in actual canon yeah. Mihawk wont die though, since he is technically a tutor (although idk if he still gives the substat)

 

[Oreki]

Like it's more about the honourable fight not to learn something

 

[Kaka]

it makes beating mihwak pointless if you dont need to defeat him to get S+ air slashes. as the only other reason to beat him is to save EXP on substat boost

That's why I vote for implementation of an S++ rank technique, which every person can only have one of, their ultimate attack. And for swordsmen, that'd be unlocked if you can get Mihawk's slash.

It'd also solve the whole ''you can't even get to DPR 16 atm'' problem.

 

[Ziosa]

Still, the main point fighting Mihawk is to show him that you are best not that you want to learn something from him.

That's why larsi and ranger allowed us to have S+ attacks for sword

you can still have S+ attacks, just not S+ air slashes

 

[Oreki]

Give something more unique from mihawk like perk... They make more sense than just some random S+ air slash that you can get from different MA

 

[Kaka]

Rokushiki user can use three attacks in same post

Any MA can lol. If you can make sense of it in the timing. The Rokushiki hate is real. xD We don't even have an S+ technique in Rokushiki lmao..

unless its a DF or mind one, you will need to still beat mihawk to get that even if you arent using a sword

I thought all of the offensive Roku variants were S+ DPR at 120 Mastery?

 

[Ebuk]

Honestly with a bit of imagination you can come up with a better FS than Rokushiki for your PC.
Rokushiki can be a nuisance, but it isn't that OPed

 

[Frayz]

I guess it's fair if it applies to all MAs

 

[tlgRen]

With a custom MA, can you have all of your attacks with varying DPR? Like, between B to S based on how much strength the user puts into the attack? (Obviously with varying Mastery requirements too.)

You can

@Ziosa just let him get the goddamn title. it's all he wanted - fame. famewhore.


#anormalswingthatisS+


so the ultimate move is just as dangerous as the normal ones. lol.

Also, I believe that there has to be a limit as to how many S, S+ rank attacks we can do and the description of the attack should always match with the rank. I mean, imagine a normal swing that is ranked as S or S+ makes no sense. And when you already unleashed your special move which is way more fancy or well described, it is no longer that special or ultimate. You get the idea.

People with 101-120 in stamina will only spam those attacks as they are near limitless-limitless.

Combat wise, it's downgrading.

I need air slashes because S+ attacks can be get by just 100 in MA or else me buying MA boost seems pointless.

It just bad reward and I don't approve it

You have no idea how much I agree with this. The Mihawk fight speaks so well to this.

I feel like we should stop being able to rank our own techniques, and the GMs in the approval process should rank them.

Depending on how the description of the technique works, they should rank it. (and by description I don't mean fancy words or grammar, I mean what the attack is literally described to do).

If your technique goes as ''he swings the sword vertically'', that can't be a fucking S+ technique lol. That's ridiculous. xD

Makes the whole fight just a spamfest of S+ techs. It takes out the whole aspect of stepping up your game, then your opponent steps up his, then you step up yours, and it's a back and forth. Instead it's just DPR16 planet attacks from the first post to the last. It's stupid.

And btw, I'm not just talking about swordsmanship. Even Rokushiki, imo, should follow this. A normal Shigan shouldn't be allowed to be S+ ever. Each base Rokushiki technique should be B-rank or something, and then the variants can go up to S+ depending on what they do.

Cause if we keep going as we're going, every person will have an S+ technique available for any situation, whether close range, mid-range, or long-range. And it shouldn't be like that. If someone has S+ long range slash, but I use strategy to get into close quarters and prevent them from firing it off, then that should be a winning strategy for me. But instead, the opponent will just have some S+ rank backhand slap to resort to in that situation to deflect whatever close-range attack I got. It's stupid. xD

Yeah I can get behind this whole concept, it should all be about the creativity of it

 

[Kaka]

Hey if not, I'm just gonna get myself an S+ rank planet-level Shigan Finger Flick, Isshin-style.

Every time you step anywhere close to me, a split second spammable finger flick blast that's DPR 16 is waiting for you. Good luck.

Couldn't agree more.

With regards to the description, I didn't mean to impose the importance of how it is worded. It is the manner of how the attack itself is described to be stronger as compared to your weaker ones.

But we get the same atmosphere.

For the ranking of attacks, welp, I used to let Ranger and Larsi rank them but I learnt how to do it properly and I don't abuse the fucking privilege. I mean, I can submit all sorts of S or S+ ranks but I don't wanna because the possibility of me using it all in the drama is little and if you realize that you are able to throw such overwhelming attacks for no goddamn reason is ugly.

I always involve the beauty of the story, the battle rather than how strong my character is. Sure, Gambit is top 5 and by far could rival anyone in the league but I want Gambit to overcome his shit, his arrogance in battle, and find a way to story tell in an incredible fashion.

It's not always stats, sturdiness, and all.

I mean, I only have sent one S+ rank attack to each of my expertise. One S+ in each department but I am versatile so I have like a few but all of them make sense. You had BG with me, so you've seen a few.
[automerge]1608122626[/automerge]
Because I want my S+ to be special like nothing else on my list. A couple of S rank is aye.

I have some pretty cool ideas for some S and S+ attacks that combine multiple martial arts and mind stats, but it feels like i scared @Ranger away.

With a gif like that one that shows your godly power, who would not be scared of you?
