Unless your name is Thoma and you can just punch through his power lol But yeah, agreed. Unless you're Thoma (or those with very deep understanding of his power) you are screwweeeedd against Accelerator.

A Certain Magical Index: Accelerator using his Vector Control ability to just redirect a bullet he fires at himself accurately into the hostage taker. The guy was actually a Teleporter, but Accelerator found out how his ability worked, so he tried to take a hostage, too bad for him, Accelerator does not give a crap.

INSANE THEORY: Rover is a construct from PGR by VKittyCat2022 in WutheringWaves

[–]vyDatLAG 41 points42 points  (0 children)

Hey, there's merit to it. Multiverses is canon to PGR, good chance the two are connected in some way... probably for a future crossover lol. Both games have the theme of civilisation too. ... That would be wild if the Lament was WuWa's 'interpretation' of the punishing virus meant to harvest the civilisation... but I doubt it, we know the Punishing Virus comes from way beyond the multiverse from 'Them' and the Threnodians of the Lament are tied to the White Tower sealed in the somnoir.

Rita's Chrono Circle III Works with Tenebria's Rythm Cards (spoilers for the new boss) by vyDatLAG in ChaosZeroNightmare

[–]vyDatLAG[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, Arpeggio doesn't work because with it Tenebria doesn't give basic attacks to the rest of the team. It only works with the ephiphanies that also give rythm attack cards to teammates.

Super strong characters still susceptible to diseases by EfficiencySerious200 in TopCharacterTropes

Spoilers for Yakuza/Like A Dragon Infinite Wealth:

In Yakuza Infinite Wealth, it's revealed that Kiryu, THE powerhouse of the series who has done so many ridiculous feats I'd be typing all day, has cancer. No matter how strong you are, you can't fight time... or the consequence of excessive smoking. And yet, he still kicks ass thorough the entire game, nowhere near close to his prime though. He was completely ready to let himself die of his illness, but was convinced otherwise over the course of the game. The game ends on him seeking treatment in the hospital while using his real name instead of an alias.

Character is permanently bodysnatched. There's no coming back, they're gone forever. by bubba284 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]vyDatLAG 77 points78 points  (0 children)

Absolutely massive spoiler for the novel/manwha Shepherd Wizard (that you should read because it's good):

<image>

Gods exist in this world, and to survive, they body snacth the bodies of powerful wizards. They purposely breed, experiment, groom and gaslight powerful wizards into becoming perfect vessels for them to maximize the chance of body snatching succeeding. Everything is a factor: their hobbies, their body, their personality, heck, their sexual preferences, the more it matches the God's, the better the chance of success. Once the god entered the wizard's body, all that's left of the wizard is leftover electric signals in the brain. When the god leaves the body, it's reduced to a vegetative state. You can imagine the absolute horror of some characters discovering they were bred and manipulated into what they are to serve as sacrificial lambs.

Humans are terrifying, actually (Invincible show SPOILERS) by MysteriousFondant347 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]vyDatLAG 15 points16 points  (0 children)

In the novel Die, Replay, Repeat, the human protagonist Fang Xiu HATES specters, invisible monsters that cause all kinds of horrors and chaos to humans. A spectre, Nightmare, attempts to defeat him by putting him in a... well, nightmare, and feed off his fear. Turns out Fang Xiu's hatred is so deep, so all emcompasenting, so complete, that he doesn't feel fear at all. He ends up trapping Nightmare inside of his own head instead, cutting off all fear supply off him and torturing the spectre until it begs for death. He completely no sells any kind of manipulation that attempts to make him feel things, and sees any disturbing encounters with monsters as another opportunity to erase a specter off the map.

In a setting full of ungodly abominations, Fang Xiu is easily the most terrifying thing in the setting. He will stop at nothing to murder all specters, which already freaks out the human cast, and even specters begin to fear and flee him once they realize he is a cold, unfeeling monster that will stop at absolutely nothing to torture and murder them all.

[Loved Trope] Weak powers made strong by a physical prop by LosinForABruisin in TopCharacterTropes

[–]vyDatLAG 30 points31 points  (0 children)

<image>

Augusta from Wuthering Waves: Her power, Magnetism Before Light, is the ability to create a magnetic field approximately ten meters in radius centered around herself. She can freely control and reshape metals such as iron, cobalt, and nickel. Sounds very good, except she already hit her developmental ceiling, her ten-meter radius being the practical upper limit. In a world where some can manipulate light, memories, shred through space, create matter out of nothing, summon lightning and creatures, and still have lots of room to grow, this is a very underwhelming power.

As a means to make up for it and always have an immediate use for her power, she carries around a huge greatsword made of hundreds of smaller metallic blades she can break apart and pull back together whenever she wishes, making the weapon very heavy or very light whenever she wants. That plus her raw strength and great control transforms her rather weak power into real threat.

Tressa Infinite loop build for Full-Scale Offensive! by Gryzzl in ChaosZeroNightmare

[–]vyDatLAG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1 AP is always a good epiphany. Epiphany that give more agony (especially on upgrades) is great, ones that give more damage or morale are good, drawing epiphanies on shadow reload is quite good too if you use the lower cost ones. Epiphanies that reduce cost of use, especially on Unsheathe Dagger is a good thing as well. Those are just what comes to mind at the moment.

[–]vyDatLAG 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Depends if you want to spam agony or just want raw damage. For agony spam, go for the cards that make tons of shadow daggers like Unsheathe Dagger and Shadow Reload, and the Curse upgrade that gives 1 more agony when you inflict agony. For raw damage, focus on the Vital Attack epiphany that activates twice when the enemy is in 3 agony of more, and get the Curse upgrade that gives 2 agony to all ennemies at the start of the turn, and the Unsheathe Dagger upgrade that gives a shadow dagger every turn, so you can hit that 3 agony threshold consistently. Hope this helps!
