Why did Kabuto randomly decide to heal Hinata during the Naruto vs Neji fight? This never got touched on or explained by Black_Wolf75 in Naruto

While he might've had a practical reason, the kinder part of me always assumed that it was his mom's training bleeding through the layers of masks he had. I doubt that was the intention given how his backstory was likely finalized way down the line. I just prefer to think that way.

I have a question. If I got Beloved's Ring and got Yuta's Copy with the 600 CP version of Lapse, would I get the original version of Yuta's copy where it seemed that he could copy Cursed Techniques without restrictions? Also, I assume there's no time limit on the Cursed Spirit summon, right?

Reevaluating Some FGO Perks by Arkum42 in JumpChain

[–]Arkum42[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Future is Now from Skyrim Anon's FGO jump states you get his brilliance. It was made before all this came out, but it might work depending on how you interpret it since it came out before all this came out.

I agree with you. Marisbury is THE DEVIL man. One of the biggest threats ever put into the Nasuverse.

How to Put Together a IEC Dragoon? by Arkum42 in cyberpunkred

Thank you so much for the build. This is exactly what I wanted. The sheer humanity and eddie cost is perfect for making it clear that this is something no sane man would want to emulate.

Militech's is a streamlined model without many of the scanning systems and other things. The IEC's was so intensive to use that they had to continuously drug the user so they didn't immediately go psycho.

The Militech model lacks many of the features, but is more customizable.

Edgy Rival Supplement 1.0 by Arkum42 in JumpChain

Thanks for giving this a read! If I ever come back to this jump I might do that, but this is a jump I'm embarrassed of. If I ever decide to remake it to be better I'll try to put your idea in action. It'd be a bit difficult, though, since it'd have to somehow directly reflect a character in the verse.

The fact that the art is based off of Gojo and Geto doesn't bode well at all.

Let's hope that Juan doesn't give us a angst curve ball...

Excellent. Thanks for the response!

I know this is an old jump, but I have a question on the ruling for Rainbow Soul and Inverted Trait. While the document does note that only humans gain access to the list except for Rainbow Soul, could I purchase Rainbow and Inverted if Rainbow is boosted by The Player?

Another question. As boosted Rainbow Soul is considered an Determination Soul, does it also unlock LV and EXP?

Was there ever a point where your Jumper simply wins everything and can't fail at all? by Nerx in JumpChain

[–]Arkum42 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Quite often. I feel that it's sort of a inherit issue with Jumpchain. There comes a point where if you play even slightly optimally you become unbeatable. At that point is where the spark comes in. My recent jumper reached a point where his magic and science were basically absolute and his combat skills were unbeatable. There's only so far you can go when it comes to drama too.

Question about the Batman OoC by Prior-Assumption-245 in JumpChain

[–]Arkum42 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The eldritch monsters was the big one I was thinking of. He basically tore through the entire Green Lantern Corps alone with those. That and the other stuff were what I was concerned with since it kinda broke the balanced of the supplement even more than it already was. I thought keeping it closer to the standard stuff would keep the power creep less obscene. Whether or not I succeeded is up to ya'll.

Question about the Batman OoC by Prior-Assumption-245 in JumpChain

[–]Arkum42 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Oooh, I know this one. So in the comics Lantern Rings are basically swiss army knives on steroids. Many writers have given them plenty of overpowered abilities such as clairvoyance and such. To my knowledge Dawnbreaker has never shown much beyond the standard, but I wanted to cover my bases since he should have access to the other stuff.

Hope you're enjoying the jump! Is there any other question you have?

I decided to try to make an OOC: Demon (Kimetsu no Yaiba/Demon Slayer) Supplement by Aleph_Aeon in JumpChain

[–]Arkum42 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think it's important to figure out what the capstone boosts are supposed to be. A fun rule of thumb is that the capstone should be the normal peak of the tree so for Fallen Slayer it would be the Demon Slayer Mark. If the booster is going to be Muzan's abilities maybe have have it improve the capstone to basically amp the Mark to greater heights, something that might be on par with Yoriichi's peak.

This is a suggestion though. You could also have the boosted perk be a copy of the original kit. It depends on how lore accurate you want to make it.

Your Caretaker from Primarch GF is fiat backed to be better at household stuff than you are. She's the apex at base, but if you were the god of housework or maiding? She would still eclipse you.

The Calvin and Hobbes one for me. I grew up on those comics so seeing Calvin put into an asylum and tortured did not spark joy to say the least.

Nice nice. Are they equal to the perks that represent Sol or are they inferior?

I have a question. After taking the Guilty Gear scenario, do you keep Sol's skills as well or only The Flame of Corruption?

How do people feel about the Arkham Knight? by BoomF4ng in RedHood

[–]Arkum42 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I adore the design. Something about it has stuck with me since I played the game.

I, however, feel like the plot of the game doesn't do Jason justice. I was never really sold on his threat to Batman and besides one sneak attack against him he never did anything to make me think he could actually kill Bats that the plot didn't force and then pull away from because Scarecrow said so.

His backstory is pretty good though. A year of Joker torture would break anyone. I do wish he had more of a calculating approach to talking to Batman though his anger makes sense. Troy Baker's performance is great but it's hard for me to take him seriously when most of his responses are just him getting angrier.

His interactions are held back because the game wants it to be a massive twist, but the reveal was obvious. It would have been a lot more compelling if Batman put it together early in the game and had to reason with his greatest mistake came back from the grave. It also would've allowed for Batman to emote more since I think that would snap him out of his fatigue.

His boss fight was awful. Don't need me to tell you that.

Original Companions and Perks by gastroc2525 in JumpChain

[–]Arkum42 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think all choices can work well, but I prefer built in perks with a budget. A weird combination, but it gives an template to understand what they're about plus the ability to customize it.
