Hey, part of the group that's helping @cerulean smelt playtest. I have a question and perhaps some feedback about Dagon. With the Haunt free action granted by #_UR Packet, can you destroy ANY digital construct, or only one created by the Yellow Signal? If the latter's the case, that should probably be specified.

#

Actually, after looking at it harder, it's clear that it's specifically Yellow Signal constructs.

the other theme of the build was fucking around with heat

yeah Wednesday is fine. right. today is Tuesday for most people huh.

covert surge Dec 19, 2023, 8:38 AM

And when touching all drones that are touching counts as entangled to the main rat

You essentially select your timezone, then click and drag over the times you'll be available

And the thing overlays everyone's availability

Basically all of RK shenaningan are keyed to drone specifically

"Eraticate The Tyrants In Bloodstained Robes"

cerulean smelt Dec 19, 2023, 9:03 AM

#

That's so metal

#

I love it

rain topaz Dec 19, 2023, 9:03 AM

#

the first name idea i had was something with "ratican"

#

ive dubbed the pilot callsign "Nosoi"

#

greek spirit of plague and illness

#

now to figure out the build

#

oooooh

#

ive had an idea

#

perhaps something with mines

cerulean smelt Dec 19, 2023, 9:06 AM

#

oooooh mine king

rain topaz Dec 19, 2023, 9:06 AM

#

then i attach a detonator to my sputniks

#

just will need to see how much it would cost to do this

#

can rat kings throw reverse guillotines?

#

no but wait, all at the same target

#

cant get a guillotine wall

#

how does the unraveler interact with target acquired?

#

how does it interact with the sacrificial spear?

#

yeah im starting to really lean towards making the tank of rat kings

cerulean smelt Dec 19, 2023, 9:19 AM

#

Rat Tank

#

Honestly tempted to try a Blackbeard Rat King

rain topaz Dec 19, 2023, 9:20 AM

#

does hyperdense armor's half damage extend ot sputniks?

#

like would i be dealing with halved, then halved again damage?

#

cause i think im gonna try and get atleast 3 ips-n licenses

#

casue the core bonuses are just so good for making a tanky thing

#

must resist the urge to grab the blackspot targeting laser

#

already made a rat king build with that

#

mix it up

#

oooh

#

sharanga missiles

#

would the sputniks benefit from being able to target 2 people?

#

honestly

#

if someone wants to synergize

#

ill invest in getting formorian and mule harness

rain topaz Dec 19, 2023, 11:39 AM

#

i think im going to focus in on creating burst areas

#

i wanna kinda build a like advancing tide i think

#

holy crape

#

the invigorates one could pull off with this team

#

should i go blackspot targeting laser or veil rifle?

#

okay, i have my tentative rat king build

rain topaz Dec 19, 2023, 12:11 PM

#

just a second flex mount

the whole build is basically a slow walk towards the enemy as i saturate them with missiles and build up a drone army

rain topaz Dec 19, 2023, 12:12 PM

#

this bad boy can throw out about 13 drones at max

#

7 sputniks and 6 regular drones

#

actually 14, with 8 sputniks if i pop core power

#

can you tell this guy is a revolutionary

#

have i layered enough rebellion themes onto it

#

bro also has a wooping 7 repair

hushed fieldBOT Dec 19, 2023, 12:14 PM

#

I barely understand it but I love it.

rain topaz Dec 19, 2023, 12:14 PM

#

hes kinda a controller, but only so much that if you move towards him, he will start destroying you

#

i truly hope i get to use puppetmaster to move like 30 drones at once

#

if i had more licenses levels/sp i would prob have sprung for an assassin drone, to feed into the bombarding theme

#

but yeah, i think im only gonna equip sputniks with the blackspot

#

cause the most damage the sharanga can do on a sputnik is 1, and the sputnik also doesnt benefit from its 2 targets thing with sputniks either

#

while the targetting laser could deal up to 2 energy damage, and one the sputniks hit things it buffs there next attack

#

and it can apply lock on, further buffing the turret drones

stray thistle Dec 19, 2023, 12:19 PM

#

Sharingas would do 2 damage, you round up

rain topaz Dec 19, 2023, 12:19 PM

AH

#

thank you good sir

#

though on the plus side, sharanga and blackspot have the same range

Ah, going more hydra then, with the tactical dismenberment

#

Themeing wise, all of the Eraticate's drones are exactly the same

#

They are all bulk-ish walking turrets

#

With the sharanga more of a big handheld mortar situation

#

I might replace sysop if someone wanted to get bonded with me

If I didnt have to walk to an appointment in a few minutes I'd probably be putting together a max ll version of Eraticate

@rain topaz @cerulean smelt @raven socket hey gays girls and gamers I fucked up. totally entered the wrong available dates on the sheet . I am not gonna be available here in 12-ish hours like I wrote that I would, I'm still at work during that time. hit me like a truck. my bad.

just shift all my available days one spot to the right. if we can do it Thursday at the same ish time, that would be fine by me

my bad, I'm sorry

#

I had gotten so used to looking at & using my work schedule, and since I work between days (I start shift at 10pm, end at 8am), I had gotten so used to thinking of the next morning as the same day, that it didn't even occur to me

#

Oh wait

#

I'm stupid

#

Nevermind we're fine? Sorry for the ping!

#

boy, I really thought I fucked it up. I guess we're good

quartz sail Dec 20, 2023, 11:51 AM

Had an idea for making a small firing squad with dual paracausal weapons. Def not using anything involved to its highest potential, but could be funny. Would probably be more effective with just the one paracausal weapon and more drones, but f-it we ball.

clarification

#

with target acquired, do you make a separate attack roll for each sputnik?

#

and also, are all the sputnik attacks considered to happen simultaneously

#

or could sputniks benefit from a blackspot bonus from another previus sputnik?

#

(also, should i replace sysop with house guard 2?)

#

ive also figured out more about ramese's backstory

cobalt sonnet Dec 20, 2023, 12:14 PM

yes

rain topaz Dec 20, 2023, 12:14 PM

#

Born on an Armory world, Ramese worked as a sanitation worker, before he discovered that during a routine physical checkup, the Armory had taken some of his DNA and used it to create flash clones of him. After a mysterious Horus affiliated hacker, called OMUS, showed him the evidence, he decided to construct a chassis, with help from OMUS, from old disposal drone parts and various salvaged armory materials. He is now on a quest to find the flash clones of himself, while screwing Harrison Armory over in the process.

rain topaz Dec 20, 2023, 12:14 PM

#

cobalt sonnet ...do we need one??

no, i just put way too much effort into one-off characters

#

it is unlikely that any of this comes up in the game, its just both fun and important for me to make

#

his rat king is very bulky

#

which is funny, cause even though i put nothing in evasion, it still has 5 speed

rain topaz Dec 20, 2023, 12:17 PM

cobalt sonnet 1) yes 2) believe so, yes 3) probably 4) yes. hg2 is goated on this thing

do you have your build yet?

how the fuck did you get 14 out of that

you need to place a normal drone

you start with 1 free

cause i have enough movement at base

#

the way im flavoring my cat and mouse stuff is through my things have a sorta mist/smoke thing that just makes its hard for sensors to tell where exactly i am

quartz sail Dec 20, 2023, 1:08 PM

#

Do a Fate/Stay Night party. HA Arthur, IC Acastus, MOI Medea, and IC Heracles.

rain topaz Dec 20, 2023, 1:08 PM

#

i call dibs on Acastus

cerulean smelt Dec 20, 2023, 1:09 PM

#

not even a second

#

i get it tho

#

would love do go Arthur for that lmao

rain topaz Dec 20, 2023, 1:09 PM

#

i love a boy who pulls out 15 swords in 1 minute

#

also, ive realised, turret drones dont trigger through lock on consumes

#

what thing am i think of that does that?

#

(its not a talent)

cerulean smelt Dec 20, 2023, 1:10 PM

#

I genuinely wanna play in a campaign where it's just a bunch of knight mechs 😭

#

uhmm

#

doesn't ring a bell to me idk

rain topaz Dec 20, 2023, 1:10 PM

#

hm

#

does anyone wanna become bonded?

#

i have an open talent point

#

i also have house gaurd 2 so the accuracy i think can be gotten easyier

cerulean smelt Dec 20, 2023, 1:11 PM

#

i'm a little too all over the place for bonded

rain topaz Dec 20, 2023, 1:11 PM

#

true

#

lemme find something then

#

oooh

#

i could take combined arms 1, but i dont thing i wanna be engaged enough to use it

#

maybe exemplar

#

maybe leader

cerulean smelt Dec 20, 2023, 1:13 PM

#

leader could possibly be a nice supporting buff

rain topaz Dec 20, 2023, 1:13 PM

#

ooh, stormbringer could be good aswell

cerulean smelt Dec 20, 2023, 1:13 PM

#

Oooh yes!

#

Love stormbringer!

rain topaz Dec 20, 2023, 1:14 PM

#

yeah, that hooks into my locking on and my sharanga

cerulean smelt Dec 20, 2023, 1:14 PM

#

Launchers my beloved ❤️

#

Also I want to apologize in advance, but this oneshot will be my first time as an actual player

rain topaz Dec 20, 2023, 1:14 PM

#

honestly, me aswell

cerulean smelt Dec 20, 2023, 1:15 PM

#

Cause I've been DMing Lancer since the start of the year

#

Now I get the opportunity to play and I'm so hype

rain topaz Dec 20, 2023, 1:15 PM

#

its very exciting

#

im kinda in love with the vibes of the Eraticate

#

its kinda inspired by this image a bit

cerulean smelt Dec 20, 2023, 1:16 PM

#

ooh?

rain topaz Dec 20, 2023, 1:16 PM

#

yeah

#

the Eraticate is a large lumbering armor thing

covert surge Dec 20, 2023, 1:16 PM

XD

covert surge Dec 20, 2023, 1:16 PM

#

honk honk 🤡

rain topaz Dec 20, 2023, 1:17 PM

#

that and kindat he morter titans from titan fall 2

#

atleast the sharanga is

#

when i make a character i generally like thinking about both the mechanics and how they are represented in the fiction

#

like the targetting laser is shoulder mounted, the drone are manufactuer and popped out of the back

#

they all have kinda chunky legs, cause moving the drones around is a big thing i wanted to do

quartz sail Dec 20, 2023, 1:19 PM

#

Also, because I thought of it after my Fate/Stay Night suggestion, you can also do a Fate/Apocrypha party with RKF Mordred, IC Atalanta, IPS-N Vlad, and MO&S Frankenstein.

rain topaz Dec 20, 2023, 1:19 PM

#

atalanta's cool

#

i love its take on a paradox being not "oh god, temporal stuff, we need to be so carfeul not to make a paradox", but instead "dear god, we just started researching this thing and now we have all the plans, and if we dont spend the next 70 years making this we will rip apart spacetime, im going to punch who ever is going to have done this in the taint so many times when i find out"

he uses a lot of liscnese to do what he does

#

had to do a little searching to find a ll1 system that only toke 1 sp, but i eventually landed on the IFF Spoof from painted lady

cerulean smelt Dec 20, 2023, 1:59 PM

I love the Spoof

raven socket Dec 20, 2023, 3:49 PM

I need to get a battlemap made for tomorrow

rain topaz Dec 20, 2023, 3:56 PM

what for?

covert surge Dec 20, 2023, 4:00 PM

#

Shape terrain like an amogus

raven socket Dec 20, 2023, 4:00 PM

#

rain topaz what for?

To play Lancer on with you three?

rain topaz Dec 20, 2023, 4:00 PM

#

ah ok

#

wasnt sure

raven socket Dec 20, 2023, 4:01 PM

#

np np

#

But yeah.. Hmm

rain topaz Dec 20, 2023, 4:01 PM

#

i dont think youve yet linked yourself in the when2meet

#

cause it only says 3 people

#

so thats why i was unsure if we had a set date yet

raven socket Dec 20, 2023, 4:01 PM

#

Ahh, gotcha

rain topaz Dec 20, 2023, 4:02 PM

#

but dope

raven socket Dec 20, 2023, 4:03 PM

#

@rain topaz @cerulean smelt @cobalt sonnet Does the slot tomorrow or the day after work better for you all?

rain topaz Dec 20, 2023, 4:03 PM

#

i can do either

raven socket Dec 20, 2023, 4:03 PM

#

(vote now on your phones)

rain topaz Dec 20, 2023, 4:04 PM

#

yeah, if we have a preference id go for friday, but either works for me

ornate verge Dec 20, 2023, 4:04 PM

#

Hey I gotta player who is wanting to run the IPS-N stealthy boy. What talents and other licenses would y'all recommend?

rain topaz Dec 20, 2023, 4:05 PM

#

i think 1 obvoius is infilitrator

cobalt sonnet Dec 20, 2023, 4:05 PM

#

either are fine

#

tomorrow is fine

#

tomorrow is probably ideal

#

i have a session thursday (evening) and friday (evening) so doing something thursday (morning) is fine by me

#

i usually fall asleep not long after the window ends

rain topaz Dec 20, 2023, 4:07 PM

#

then we just need ash

#

the session would be planned to be from 3-6 o clock correct?

#

and are we using owlbear rodeo?

#

ello?

raven socket Dec 20, 2023, 4:20 PM

#

oop

#

hi

raven socket Dec 20, 2023, 4:20 PM

#

rain topaz and are we using owlbear rodeo?

What's that?

#

We were gonna be using foundry

ornate verge Dec 20, 2023, 4:21 PM

#

I think he's going to do that and crackshot in conjunction with the anansi license to get the hyperfauna sniper rifle and the suppressor so he can fire from hidden and not lose it.

rain topaz Dec 20, 2023, 4:21 PM

#

ah okay

rain topaz Dec 20, 2023, 4:21 PM

#

raven socket What's that?

its another vtt

#

sorta lightweight, but it does have a witchdice extension which hooks into lancer

#

and it does hexes good

raven socket Dec 20, 2023, 4:22 PM

#

Eh, prefer foundry

#

Now, about bloodhound's question..

#

Anyone have any thoughts? I haven't really messed with the frame yet

rain topaz Dec 20, 2023, 4:27 PM

#

is foundry free?

raven socket Dec 20, 2023, 4:27 PM

#

rain topaz is foundry free?

For the players, yes

#

For the GM, no

rain topaz Dec 20, 2023, 4:27 PM

#

ok

raven socket Dec 20, 2023, 4:27 PM

#

But I already own it, so

rain topaz Dec 20, 2023, 4:27 PM

#

how do i access the player version?

raven socket Dec 20, 2023, 4:28 PM

#

I send you a link at game time

rain topaz Dec 20, 2023, 4:28 PM

#

ah ok

#

dope

covert surge Dec 20, 2023, 4:28 PM

#

demoltionist because lol mines

raven socket Dec 20, 2023, 4:28 PM

#

covert surge demoltionist because lol mines

@ornate verge

rain topaz Dec 20, 2023, 4:29 PM

#

the best way to hide is to make sure there's no one even remotely close enough to find you, and then keep it that way

#

which sounds a lot like, "the most powerful condition you can inflict on your opponents is dead", but thats not what i meant

#

right up there with "reactor stress is a resource"

covert surge Dec 20, 2023, 4:32 PM

#

Spotter or Orator also works if you are completely mine focused

#

prospector with infiltrator lets you dynamic entry into a group of enemy, garuntee the prone from creating the entrance, trigger infiltrator 3 to throw a flashbang and skeedadle back to relative safety

rain topaz Dec 20, 2023, 4:35 PM

#

the reason terk makes mechs is because if he was allowed to devote all his creative energy to making core lancer builds, we would have a build that can kill Ra

indigo gulch Dec 20, 2023, 4:44 PM

#

I mean, we all know the best way to take down an Eidolon/Deimosian is a bunch of Pegasus frames with Paracasual Modded weapons whilst popping Core

ornate verge Dec 20, 2023, 5:38 PM

#

Okay I will absolutely pass that on to the lad. They're gonna be running an extraction sitrep with an Artillery Bombardment secondary objective. The team so far is the IPS-N stealthy lad, a Duskwing, a shotel when things get loud/they need a distraction, and either an anansi, deaths head, or a Pharos for long range fire support( the last one hasn't decided yet)

open ginkgo Dec 20, 2023, 7:47 PM

Anansi would be my choice cause the smoking spider needs more love

Yup yup! Sounds good for me!

ornate verge Dec 20, 2023, 10:18 PM

#

open ginkgo Anansi would be my choice cause the smoking spider needs more love

They're leaning towards it cause a silenced hyperfauna rifle sounds hilarious to them.

#

Oh nice!

wraith birch Dec 21, 2023, 6:26 AM

#

Wait, question for the Arthur's Clarent. Does it have +1 accuracy by default or is that tag there because of the +1 accuracy it gets on the second attack?

covert surge Dec 21, 2023, 6:27 AM

#

Be default

wraith birch Dec 21, 2023, 6:27 AM

#

Alright.

covert surge Dec 21, 2023, 6:27 AM

#

Second attack goes up to +2 acc because of it

wraith birch Dec 21, 2023, 6:27 AM

#

Gotcha.

#

Can't wait for the Kishka btw.

#

and the Atlas alt frame.

covert surge Dec 21, 2023, 6:27 AM

#

Incase the fact that this is a weapon designed to fish for executioner 2 wasnt clear :P

hushed fieldBOT Dec 21, 2023, 6:28 AM

#

Is speed 8 Rat King too fast?

rain topaz Dec 21, 2023, 6:48 AM

#

No such thing

rain topaz Dec 21, 2023, 8:38 AM

#

just to confirm, the game starts at 3 pm today, correct?

cosmic steppe Dec 21, 2023, 9:40 AM

#

Does using IFF Spoof on someone count as "locking on" for the purposes of some talents like Spotter 3:
"As a quick action when you Lock On, you may nominate..."

#

It probably wouldn't count for Spotter 2 which says "take the lock on quick action", but Spotter 3 seems a little ambiguous

covert surge Dec 21, 2023, 9:57 AM

#

counts for spotter 3, same as blackspot

no idea why it says that

rain topaz Dec 21, 2023, 11:51 AM

#

weird but dope

#

we got the team

#

what playstyle are you going for?

cobalt sonnet Dec 21, 2023, 11:52 AM

#

ill probably be keeping near the backlines with all but sentinels

#

plinking with 1 burn sputnik drones

#

& spamming out with asura

#

i can spam 8 drones in 1 turn. i cant do that again, but i can do it.

rain topaz Dec 21, 2023, 11:54 AM

#

dope

#

i can cover moving all the drones forward if youd like to focus on just throwing them out

cobalt sonnet Dec 21, 2023, 11:54 AM

#

ill do what i can

#

i aint got puppetmaster

rain topaz Dec 21, 2023, 11:54 AM

#

dope

#

thats why i grabbed it

#

im going for kinda a general/commander vibe honestly

#

leading the troops forward with a guiding hand

#

but it seems like we are doing good compostions wise

#

we have someone in the back, someone in the middle, and someone presumably in the front

cobalt sonnet Dec 21, 2023, 11:58 AM

#

working on the token art rn

#

ill be done before the session

#

when is that?

rain topaz Dec 21, 2023, 11:59 AM

#

i think around 3 pm today

#

#

i should prob find a token to represent my drones honestly

cobalt sonnet Dec 21, 2023, 12:02 PM

#

right i probably should just

#

check that in my tz

cerulean smelt Dec 21, 2023, 12:06 PM

im hype asf

rain topaz Dec 21, 2023, 12:06 PM

i need a drone hex

#

im just gonna use the alt-atlas art for my frame token

#

is there somewhere i can get just like a default turret hex token?

cerulean smelt Dec 21, 2023, 12:17 PM

#

oh fuck we need custom tokens??

rain topaz Dec 21, 2023, 12:17 PM

#

i dont think so

#

i just think we need any tokens

#

ping nexa and ask

#

hey @cobalt sonnet can i borrow one of your ^ for my drone art?

rain topaz Dec 21, 2023, 12:22 PM

#

cerulean smelt im hype asf

i aswell

#

still have yet to decide if im doing a voice for my guy

#

which vc will we be using?

#

that was taken from the rat king token art

rain topaz Dec 21, 2023, 12:24 PM

#

but dope, i got my tokens

cobalt sonnet Dec 21, 2023, 12:25 PM

#

an...atlas?

rain topaz Dec 21, 2023, 12:25 PM

#

the drone is wrong

#

it just fits the color scheme more

cobalt sonnet Dec 21, 2023, 12:25 PM

#

what about for your turret drones?

#

oh

#

i see

#

the atlas is

rain topaz Dec 21, 2023, 12:25 PM

#

all my drones look the same

cobalt sonnet Dec 21, 2023, 12:25 PM

#

the sputnik

#

yeah ok

#

oh

#

thats gonna be difficult to tell em apart at a glance, but i aint your boss

rain topaz Dec 21, 2023, 12:25 PM

#

no

#

the atlast is the rat king, cause i dont have a rat king hex handy, and the atlas alt fits the vibes of the character decently well

#

i might actually add an indicator of what type of drone each is

#

cause while fluff wise all of NOSOI's drones look the same, the mechanical functions should be useful to remember

#

i also need to fix the white background

cobalt sonnet Dec 21, 2023, 12:27 PM

#

i never use 2d vtts i forgot ill have to add the hex bg

#

i also forget were using hex

rain topaz Dec 21, 2023, 12:28 PM

#

i can give you a hex template

theres no time i aint making any more

rain topaz Dec 21, 2023, 12:39 PM

#

no i mean i would have made some custom ones if i could

#

but i sadly lack that capability

#

i wonder what sitrep we will be doing

#

i feel like with how many times terk has mentioned them, theres gonna be a bombard

cobalt sonnet Dec 21, 2023, 12:40 PM

#

we'll burn that brifge when we get to it

rain topaz Dec 21, 2023, 12:40 PM

we have too many drones we need to cross it

#

are you just gonna be redeploying your sentinals to get your sputniks out?

#

mama duck with ducklings on a freeway

rain topaz Dec 21, 2023, 12:44 PM

#

also be careful, if you have more than 8 sputniks out you can instantly stress yourself with 1 target aquired

#

atleast im pretty sure

cobalt sonnet Dec 21, 2023, 12:46 PM

#

wrong

#

heat goes to drones as energy damage

rain topaz Dec 21, 2023, 12:46 PM

#

@covert surge, dont you take the heat your sputniks take?

cobalt sonnet Dec 21, 2023, 12:46 PM

#

this has been confirmed before

#

drones dont have a heat cap

rain topaz Dec 21, 2023, 12:46 PM

#

ah ok

cobalt sonnet Dec 21, 2023, 12:46 PM

#

its the same as if a witch used tear don

#

things without a heat cap take energy equal to heat given

#

this is why invigorate is so necessary for me

rain topaz Dec 21, 2023, 12:47 PM

#

i could have sworn you toke their heat the same way they pull from your limited pool

cobalt sonnet Dec 21, 2023, 12:47 PM

we hittem em with tha One Burn

rain topaz Dec 21, 2023, 12:48 PM

#

i can also do it

#

eventually we will fry anything that gets too close

covert surge Dec 21, 2023, 12:49 PM

#

Gave the drone a hairspray can and a lighter to deal 1 burn

rain topaz Dec 21, 2023, 12:49 PM

covert surge Gave the drone a hairspray can and a lighter to deal 1 burn

they also deal a decent amount of energy

#

yeah it doesn't specify

#

cause i thought for a second you could only fire sputniks within sensors, but nope

#

cause i was trying to figure out if you can just fully hang back and just fire your sputniks as i march them forward

#

we are really going to be abusing flash combat data

#

sputniks dont benefit from that

rain topaz Dec 21, 2023, 1:07 PM

#

no but we do

#

i geuss specifically i will be benefitting from it i suppose

#

though i am giving the sputniks accuracy with my blackspot

#
