Should we have a level system?

[Halan]

ok so it was the thing we where talking about in the admin thread last night

[Adena]

so far...I dont know EXACTLY what she is planning, but its close, and its going to be equily as simple, we'll see today though

but more to the point...this woman has played every damn table top rpg and such and alot of web ones so I trust her most to know what would be the best, and easiest

[Rayken/Hk-62]

no lvl systems plz

[Adena]

actually, it has nothing to do with a level just RAW skill....as I said I'm personally going to wait and see what is actually perposed, but I DO think we need to do something about people who suddenly think they are gods....

can a mouse droid take out an HK?....hell no...but I know of a few people who would scream and fuss that they could..

so I really suggest seeing what might come up.....I promise it will NOT change how anyone playes will NOT require any math or anything

the only other option is really really jumping on munchkins untill they learn what they can or cant do or get utterly ignored whenever they act stupid...I dont know about other mods, or admins but I get ALOT of PM's about complaints about things like that

[Rayken/Hk-62]

This would be my system skill for hk
Strengt: 12 Speed: 7 Dexterity: (dont even know what this does with droid if it is the same as speed: 7)
intellegence: 10 tactical abilty: 9
dueling: 12 Blaster skill: 12
Charisma: 2 (yes that low he is very offensive against people)
Force skill (none - weakness)

[Rayken/Hk-62]

i do like that idea your suggesting adena

[Adena]

see thats along the line of what we are THINKING along.... most people know that HK's are bad news...and they have major weapons skill..but this way you just cut down on the chance that some A-hole who knows nothing about HK's can dodge everyshot unless they are like 7+ in force ability, and even then, its hard
hk units are.a little slower than a human, so on this scale it would be like 3,4 for dex.......harder for you to dodge....but then again, HK's dont die, they go offline and get repaired

[Rayken/Hk-62]

and we have a hard armor too that makes up for the dex

[Rayken/Hk-62]

and the max for skills should be 20

[Adena]

YUP.thats exactly why your dex would be low..1 your a droid, 2 your heavy armored

..Darius perposed one version, and Lirreka is sorta twieking the Idea to be abit cleaner and more easy....like, 1-10 or 1-20 (like the classic old school stats, thats easy)scale..and focusing on the main skills .and it cuts down on arguments that take up like a page of an RP

I do know that the characters will actually be studied..so that the final stats are dead on to what they should be......so I do promise to let anyone who has suggestions have a voice, and will bring out several differant versions in a poll, and let you guys to actually SEE what could be, If it turns out to make things suck....we dump it, but it would be sorta fun at least to test them out first

see...I duel Dex in a clean duel.....I have a duel of 4..say he has a 6....it might be a good long duel...but Im out skilled, and it would be hard to beat him...unless he chose to lose for some reason..or something happened that might tip the scales.....but I'm going to play alot more realistic, and have no reason to complain if he schools me

[Roarron]

im now finally on again

[Roarron]

err back on subject

err levels i think it would be too compilcating

[Adena]

thats why its not a leveling thing, requires no math, no dice rolling, no XP. just a stand alone rank for skills, that all you need to do is look at the screen and see someones ....dodge....that way common sence yould tell you how hard they would be to hit....its more of an aid...and happens to drop the WAAAAYYY to common ooc arguments still



like I said though...Well put a few of them to gether (all simple as hell) and let you guys pick one..try it for a week....if it sucks we drop it

[Roarron]

err in engilsh plz

[Adena]

okay..lets say it's you and me in a classic duel, no force powers, just a duel:

look at my sig ....
I have a duel of 4, but you have a 6...
Im out matched, we fight but the chances are you are going to beat me...I COULD beat you with luck but the odds are against me...of course you have the option of letting me win,
This way I cant go complain to a admin or mod that it was cheep...



I have rp'ed for a long time and am WELL known to take hits, and damage when it feels right many times...but there are people who act utterly untouchable when every single person knows they suck or there is no chance in hell that the character would be able to do some ungodly thing
