Making this For all of us now.

 

[Dread]

Just for clarities sake and to note it here, @anzat17 has agreed to edit her post in the morning so anyone involved in the fight please hold off on replying. @Cazar @One For Sorrow

Also if the Lords want to chit chat maybe create a separate thread so this fight doesn't get cluttered. xD

 

[anzat17]

Edits have been made :)

 

[Cazar]

My main comment so far is that th pistol is being drawn at the same time as the lightning so I won't be distracted and impossible to dodge you because of that. It's a meanwhile not an after.

Other side comment would be I'm not really sure what you're doing with your first force move. Can you clarify that a tad?

Thanks!

 

[anzat17]

Alright I'll edit to reflect that, also, there isn't a first and second force move? She dodges and then uses the force blast.

 

[Dread]

Just one other issue. Knowing how fast a bolt formed and moved in canon, and because we are so close to each other, I do not think it's possible for Serie to simply dodge out of the lightning blasts.

 

[anzat17]

I would agree, but she's not reacting to the lightning, she's reacting to your characters first starting to use the force to hold Vincent in place and activate her light saber then use the lightning, even if she could do all of that very quickly I'd still say 5m is enough for her to dodge the attack as you have stated it is coned, not spread out covering the room or anything. It wouldn't have spread out that much by the time it had traveled 5m.

 

[Cazar]

That's good for Vex but I also fired my lightning instantly so you have mine to deal with too.

 

[Dread]

Vex is holding Vincent and using lightning simultaneously (mentioned in my post), which is within the ability of a level 3.

edit: Because you replied, my post is canonized regardless if you agree with it or not though.

 

[Dread]

I noticed (think?) you edited in a completely new defense after we pointed out that we don't think you can dodge the lightning. From my understanding if you don't originally provide a defense it defaults to an auto hit. I don't think you can edit it in after?

While she was moving, she brought up her hand to her left side and started to channel the force in tutumenis, absorbing the lightning coming her way and using it it bolster her already built up strength.

I'm not sure that's how tutumenis works either? And I don't believe you can absorb a level 2 and 3 combined force lightning.

Since we're having so many disagreements I'm just going to report the post and let the rp admins decide how we proceed. That way we can move on with the fight quicker. No hard feelings. I think this will just make things easier.

Excuse posting order... Evandrus is going to escort Levi from the room before he decides to be a party pooper and bring the ceiling down on you all :P

 

[Nefieslab]

With a report it's on pause for those of us in a fight. For those of you not in the fight you can post to clap or something, I think. I'm not use to threads with some people pvping and others not. xD

Okay, first time doing a PvP ruling and there's a lot to cover. Hold on to your butts, kids.

First, there is a question of if Anzat can edit in an entirely new defense after Dread and Cazar pointed out that she lacked one. In simple terms? Yes. Good sportsmanship to point that out, but if you point it out (before it's locked in) and the poster in question edits, then that's on you. That being said, Anzat's edits stand.

Now, onto what I think is the more important question of the report: Tutaminis and lightning. There is a lot happening here, so I'm only addressing the specific issues raised in the report, but this is what happens: Vex uses the Force to hold down Vincent, but fires a burst of lightning from her fingers (her hand is around her lightsaber) at Serie. At the same time, Nayeli fires lightning at Vincent which is meant to arc (chain) off of Vincent into Serie, who is behind him. Serie moves away from Vincent and out of range of the lightning chain from Nayeli, but then absorbs the lightning shot at her by Vex.

There's a problem with this, though: Nayeli's lightning "arcing" to hit Serie is contingent upon it first hitting Vincent, as that is who the attack is first aimed at. As Vincent has not replied yet, and thus has not had an opportunity to respond to any of the attacks aimed at him, I cannot take Nayeli's chain or arced lightning into account here. So, what happens is as follows: Serie successfully moves away from Vincent and absorbs Vex's lightning, which is weaker because she is dividing her focus between blasting Serie and holding down Vincent.

All of that said, I'll be blunt. The wordings of these posts were pretty confusing. Try to be as clear and descriptive as possible when writing your attacks. State clearly the action you are preforming and exactly who it is aimed at (or who you are addressing). When there is four people involved here, you need to be clear about who is who, and what is being shot at which person. Use their names lol It makes deciphering what is happening so much easier.

This ruling is final. @Dread @Cazar @anzat17

 

[Dread]

Thanks Malon! Sorry for the bad wording. I've been tired lately.

To clear some stuff up Vex's Force lightning is also aimed at Vincent's (@One For Sorrow) lower body, and it merges with Nayeli (@Cazar's) lightning.

This is from Cazar's post:

and the pair of force lightning blasts would combine and arc in the middle.

And from my post:

Simultaneously she raised some fingers off her left saber and unleashed a wide cone of blue lightning. It snapped and hissed ominously towards the pair since they were so close together. The blast was aimed lower, but it would still reach their midsection.

 

[anzat17]

A couple of problems with your post @Taz

As a lvl 1 I don't see your character being able to redirect a force blast from a lvl 3 character in such a short time span, if at all, especially given that she has a 1 rd charge plus what your teammate gave her via force lightning to her tutumenis. Furthermore this is not how the conservation of energy works as you would need to be laying directly in front of Serie to do so, and do so with greater force than what she is currently exerting to even move the blast, let alone send it to the ceiling.

My opinion on the matter is that he would not be able to accomplish this, as he again is a lower lvl than my character, and I'm not entirely sure he would be able to even use a technique like that in the first place, but maybe I'm wrong about that. I don't think I am tho. If you could please edit your post, if you still want to go with trying to stop the blast you can, but again I do not agree that your character would be able to do anything about it tbh.
