Roter Baron Posted May 26, 2015 Report Share Posted May 26, 2015 Okay, folks, here is the task/ question: How do I build a Hulk-like brick who gets more powerful the angrier he gets? Let's start with STR 70, CON 35, PD/ED each 30, END 70 and STUN 70 - so quite powerful already. Now, he should Enrage/ Berserk when he takes damage and get more powerful each phase he stays Enraged/ Berserk and/or takes damage from an attack, "more powerful" meaning increased Strength, more PD/ED, more STUN and more CON (in that order) - his Endurance should not necessarily increase since I figure that the whole ordeal is quite tiresome. As an added complication for the build I would like the increases to be "open-ended", meaning: If he does not go down the increased are theoretically limitless - it does not stop with STR 100 or PD 50, as long as he is angry/ takes damage and keeps conscious he should in the end be able to wrestle Grond, DR Destroyer and Tyrannos to the ground - all at the same time. Any ideas for a power combination? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
death tribble Posted May 26, 2015 Report Share Posted May 26, 2015 some sort of absorption from damage taken that transfers to the characteristics. something along the lines of +5 STR when enraged/beserk after 1 phase on a continuing basis, similarly something for CON but maybe only +1 PD/ED while enraged/beserk. Similarly for stun. It would be a bit of a nightmare bookkeeping but GMing should not be too simple after all. You might want to make it after several phases or a whole turn. Also there is the Erraged/Beserk trigger. How common and is it 14 or less, 11 or less ? That will affect the size of any limitation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Comic Posted May 27, 2015 Report Share Posted May 27, 2015 Metaman ( http://www.herogames.com/forums/topic/90928-wip-metaman/?view=findpost&p=2418631 ) has a very low-rent 'open-ended' strength through absorption powerset. It of course has an upper limit (8x Cumulative), but what's really being asked isn't STR and PD. All the STR and PD in the world won't touch a desolid target, won't reach a fast enough speedster, and won't resist teleport attacks or drains. Absorb Cumulative to VPP or to add advantages to STR and PD might do something, but still, you're not going to get the Hulk, because translation follies. You're just going to get the strongest unconscious guy in the world. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
