Yare Yare....
I'm starting to think it was a conspiracy on Larsi's part to give me the yami yami over anyone else since y'all just want to use it to auto-hit people, or deal out instant death to entire islands lmao.
Alright, children, listen.
The problem is that, she can create a black hole and vacuum her targets or anything/anyone within the coverage area within the darkness' own dimension and pull them all out once using Liberation.
I cannot do this. Several issues. It is an auto-hit, it would require balancing with any other ability that allows you to dictate the behavior of your opponent--and seeing as this is not the flavor/intent of the fruit, I don't think its a useful RP approximation to waste time trying to balance that.
So, it would be more like this (which lines up with things like the hobby fruit and the soul fruit):
-can suck in NPC's of varying levels and quantities according to mastery
-blackhole/liberation used mostly to absorb, store, and expel: elements, projectiles, inanimate objects
-there is a limit to this as well, since it is not the ability of the fruit for its user to get to invent objects to absorb out of thin air lol

Superior RP can beat tho..
fixed:pepeclown:
Exactly the dark fruit is too op. I think they need to add cool down for the techniques like once a day or 5 turn cool down ir chance of failure like that..
The ability of the fruit is not to 'break the RP x number of times a day', so this is not an effective way to balance it IMO. It also isn't necessary, as the way I plan on using it means: I can't absorb people other than week NPCs, I can't create constructs or weapons to attack physically with, I can't change the shape of my body, etc etc
Maybe there should be a limit to what the yami yami can suck in.
Maybe only projectiles below a certain dpr, people below a certain level and weapons below a certain rank.
DING DING DING winner winner chicken dinner. If my stats would otherwise allow me to AoE one-shot and auto-hit you (aka fodder) then I can absorb you and spit you out like BB does. If it is an object that has been previously mentioned within the background of the situation (like a building my opponent wrote into existence and walked out of or something I wrote that was functional to the story as something other than me to absorb) then I can absorb it like BB does. If its a projectile and my stats allow me to do so, I can absorb and redirect it.

Even Frankensteins Monster DF
I just watched the Frankenstein chronicles which gives me an idea on a df for that:
Corpse fruit
-the user can assimilate and utilize corpse parts into their own body for added strength and utility.
-basically like Kid with metal but you have to touch the corpse parts to absorb them.

Can't have Darkness without Light :pepeclown:
I'd say since Darkness can absorb even Light, but Light can illuminate even Darkness--it would come down to mastery to decide if my darkness absorbed your light or if your light burned away my darkness. I don't think there is elemental superiority one over the other, in other words.

@Ziosa @Ranger @Larsi I have a question regarding future sight

If two opponents with the same movement speed and reaction speed were to fight with one having the future sight, can that person dodge most of the attacks another opponent can execute?
Future Sight=/=reaction speed.

Future sights allows the user to see one move ahead, allowing them to in character plan for that, but if the moves are too fast for them to react to, it doesn't help that you can see ahead.

In the specific scenario, of course the user with future sight will likely be able to dodge more, but there's always the option to play it smarter and trap the FS user in a scenario where they physically cant dodge.

You can have all the reaction or future sight in the world, but if there's no escape, there's no escape.
I'm pretty sure you just have to pay to unlock the right to buy mink NPC right @Larsi @Ziosa ?
I assumed you had to pay for every single NPC for different races.
@Larsi it's time to make Joby a GM. Just do it already.
Maybe if she was more consistently online lol

true, and my light is literal sunlight which creates alot of darkness aswell lol. unlike joby who doesnt have a max amount of darkness they can use, jade has a max amount of light she can use before she needs to absorb more. so long term yami will always win no matter what

Mmmmmm I don't think long term it wins no matter what! Does the amount of sunlight it can store change with your mastery? Do you decide when the sunlight is used up or is it a constant thing?

how much it stores and how much techniques use depends on mastery yeah. but it uses large percentages so it will quickly run dry if she uses it to deal with your darkness; long term yami is much better than it

yeah cursed swords that need substats should be just below A or near b ranks but have less abilites and stuff they can do in return; since they dont have as well known or easily exploited weakness(es)
