B.L.O.O.D. Black Team Disagreements Topic
Sat Jan 05, 2013 10:53 pm
Was suggested I make this topic for my disagreements in the B.L.O.O.D. mission topic, because I felt wronged with how I was responded to. This will contain everything I had a complaint with.
In all of this, I just wouldn't like my own capability to be disregarded, and my well-thought out plan to be thrown in the water.
- How I was detected: First alarm that went of in my head, contained in the first sentence of UHCM's response. It states that I was just 'sensed'. In my post I described the use of a device called Eigenartigkeit, which in my application is explained to be a spiritual energy suppressing device that near perfectly masks her Reiatsu, but only while not using abilities. UHCM was kind enough to explain to me how it was possible, and he detailed a "Hunter's Sense" to me that allows him to "sense that which he has hunted before" speaking of my relation to the Ziamichi, but that it took some time. It wasn't on his application, which is why I was confused at first. For the record, Nozomi was several stories above her targets and out of anyone's sight.
- Reaction Speed: Well, even if I accepted that he could sense me, another trouble came in how he managed to respond to me. My character picked a good time to attack Yako Grim (Zero's Character), because Caveman (UHCM's Character) had split off to escort an NPC off somewhere else at the time. When Nozomi caught sight of this with her Omnidou (A very powerful visual passive), she was in motion. UHCM tells me that at this time is when Caveman was able to sense Nozomi, which is why what comes next saddens me. Using my skill in Garganta to quickly open a rift from the roof of the building to the base of the building where Yako was at highly enhanced speeds, I was able to move into position in a little over a second. However, without explanation Caveman is halfway down the stairs in range to support Yako, all of their hostages are dead, and a message is written on the wall in this time span.
- Metagaming? Caveman's actions explained above also are rather intuitive. If Nozomi is sensed on the rooftop as UHCM says, it seems Caveman is automatically able to tell that Nozomi is about to use Garganta to attack Yako, and is completely prepared to release his "Suppressing Aura" as she appears. There are many many battles going on in the area and many powerful energy signatures to be sensed, and yet Caveman knows this one specific signature is about to act against them. Even if its on a hunch, educated guesses take time, time I didn't think they would have with the speedy method I tried to implement.
- Taking Advantage: To detail my action; I opened the Garganta on the rooftop and disappeared through that. The second Garganta would open seven feet behind Yako Grim in less than a second, through which arrows would fly as soon as they were able. This was because the arrows were fired off BEFORE the Garganta had begun opening. So as soon as it was possible for anyone to sense this Garganta, the arrows would already be on their path. Then I came out of the Garganta when the rift fully opened, a fraction of a second after the arrows were out. My focus in this post was all about a swift surprise attack, taking advantage of the fact that my target was lazing around and occupied. To be precise, Yako was writing in a notebook at the time my Garganta opened, so I am surprised if he is able to defend against my move too easily. I am not intending to one-shot him, but...
In all of this, I just wouldn't like my own capability to be disregarded, and my well-thought out plan to be thrown in the water.

Alright after reviewing this thread and the post's themselves I have come to this.
Caveman actions where in fact meta gaming with no real reasons. Even if one where use to sensing Ziamichi's no same Ziamichi has the same reaitsu trace, everyone is special so that machine would be only workable on Ziamichi caveman himself have met! Given that Quincys are known to be able to sneak in and suppress there own power so they can't be trace, that machine wound t even noticed a new sign for Ziamichi. Also your attack should of gone though, since caveman and Yako are not fast enough for there reaction times to effect your attacks, they can try to counter the arrows, but in that moment caveman wouldn't have enough time to release that aura.
Thus UHCM has to fix his post actions that revolve around your actions! starting with the sensing, and then the attack itself
