Ok, this is my last and final post towards this subject in this thread.Grant Herion wrote:Its irritating when someone tells you your perception is poor and you need to play by the rules Keikan set up? Then you shouldn't be playing this game if you play your character with only his advantages at heart. Just because players with bad perception literally can see as far as anyone with good perception doesn't mean that players with the bad perceptioned character shouldn't roleplay the rules, because then you ARE persona playing, you are so attached to your character you are thinking, "oh well, I know Kasume better then anyone, he really can see well despite I didn't put any perception levels into it when I made him". It would be best, to stop this hulkamania we have in this game, by making the screen of view smaller for people with bad perception, but i doubt that is possible at the time, but it would deffinetly stop people from making monster characters.
I've gone into the character sheet and have decided. The flawless acts that K mentions, is almost impossible to do if you follow your character strictly based on stats.
For the situation that K mentions, for there to be no flaws, no possible chance of being noticed, they must have max:
-Agility
-Dexterity
-Intelligence
-Perception
That completely uses up your 60 stat points given to you before set anything else. Meaning you're left with all the rest at 3. Meaning that with 3 strength, you probably cannot even pull the string to let the arrow fly at reasonable power.
Low constitution meaning being drastically hurt by just a wooden shovel. And catches illnesses very easily.
No essence. Meaning that your character has little passion for anything. Which I see little of that role played. Though I doubt anyone ever puts points into essence, including myself (I wish I knew my stats
).No willpower. No sense to actually commit this act on your own. You may have been able to think of a reasonable situation and figured out the dynamics of commiting the act without being caught, but the will do actually commit the act is not there.
Now you may wonder why you need the stats that I mentioned above for the situation to be flawless.
Agility - Able to turn the corner and back shooting the arrow in a mino second. Requires much agility if you're not to be noticed at all.
Dexterity - The ability to actually aim for your target. If you want to make the shot count towards a one hit kill, I suggest you're going to need good dexterity.
Intelligence - To actually think of the situation diligently with no flaws, you're going to need extreme intelligence and knowledge of physics and other things. So I suggest a good brain. A very good one if you want to be flawless and not be noticed (this also includes knowing areas in which will kill someone with just one, not just simply knowledge to aim for the neck).
Perception - For one thing, this is night time in the situation. And most likely in all situations if you actually do not want to be seen. Especially if you want to make the shot kill in one hit. You're going to need good eye sight. This sort of ties with Dexterity. But isn't quite exactly the same.
Now I've formed this character, that might make little sense of to how this perfect man could commit this crime without being noticed. This is for a regular human player.
Agility - 18
Constitution - 6
Dexterity - 18
Essence - 5
Intelligence - 9
Perception - 13
Strength - 10
Willpower - 7
That took me about 30 seconds to whip up. Some may not make sense. But I think it's a fine character for pulling that situation with few errors.
But my real point is, that you're going to have to RP flaws, such as being noticed. You cannot be a perfect character. That's just complete nonsense. And it really just lessen's the game's fun to have perfect characters such as those.
Karmane, I find that you are being completely hypocritical about this. For starters, you say that your character is unintelligent and will never be able to read books. I find this just a bit tiring, because NO ONE likes to read books in this game. No one in this game has a character that constantly reads books and is intrigued by them. So honestly, big whoop.
Your character seems intelligent enough to lie to men's faces with quick thinking and is able to use the weapons with much knowledge. Which I find, ridiculous. Especially when you're sitting there getting technicalities about stats and skills.
I personally do not get technical with skills and stats. Mostly because the game limits boundries of my character if I followed each and every rule of the technicalities. Yet Kasume is no where near perfect.
Do not sit there and speak of a perfect man like it's OK. I believe I've made my point. If any clearifications, PM me.
