Pokemon Umbral Theatre 1: Where All the Lurkers...Ah...Lurk

Yes, something regarding accessories was suggested as a replacement for Double Attack. I like how you don't specifically say what about accessories, though. I mean, which is it? The reduced cost, or the extra slots?

When I suggested accessories as a replacement for Double Attack, I suggested reducing costs since that would allow for the double attack one to be accessible without that concern of jumping Overblade's rage generation, while also opening more customization with other accessories.

Actually, I felt that one was one of the better upgrades. But that didn't seem worthwhile by itself, when you take in consideration that I didn't think the stats was a worthwhile upgrade.

That's bullshit. You said this:

And you were responding to Geminex, which means you didn't think he was saying Overblades have Double Attack.

If you look back some posts, I was referring to Post #82 where Gem was saying that accessories should be at level 4 because Double Attack was there. Then I responded saying I was fine with that change, since hell, he was the one saying it and Double Attack is cool! It was afterwards around Post #90 when he changed his mind AND added other nerfs to it.

"One level of Pokebrid" is such a damning factor because you're getting access to a whole new class. You're getting access to their entire movepool and Paradigm Shifting. Not to mention this blends in well with the Overblade 3 type immunity upgrade, because you could choose a Pokebrid form that has a quad weakness and make yourself immune to that type.

Paradigm Shift isn't quite as useful as it might seem with forced rage lock out from attacking for three rounds (which is almost an entire battle). Since we're losing Medic AND because Renny has primarily support techniques, it is one of the upgrades that I would end up never using unless it was changed so it only lasted for the turn it was activated.

The comment of Geminex you're referring to when you say that was simply him stating the obvious by saying that anyone shouldn't be able to use Trainer Actions and Pokebrid Actions at the same time.

I was fine with that, but then his explaination was that too much variety was a bad thing and that triple classing made it worse and THAT was why he opted to put 4th upgrade higher on the scale. If that wasn't what he meant, then he explained very poorly indeed.

Did anyone really say "too much Rage"?

Someone did say "too much rage generation". =P

I'm saying that any of the nerfs that may have been motivated by people having too much rage generation might be a little excessive that our fastest and easiest way of getting rage is gone.


Anyhow, a good deal of these arguments will fall on the wayside if we do have customized classes. *After waiting to see what the templates and accessories are*
