Even if the Predator's Plasma Caster inspired it, the Aetheric Pulse Cannon could still be Tier 7 or 8. That little thing can blow holes in armored bulkheads. Though I did imagine the Star Army's as larger than that nonetheless.I think it would help a lot if we had art for this weapon that shows it's not the Predator's little shoulder shooter but a big bazooka looking weapon every bit as large as the railgun that is it's main alternative.
That video you just linked… That’s tier 5Even if the Predator's Plasma Caster inspired it, the Aetheric Pulse Cannon could still be Tier 7 or 8. That little thing can blow holes in armored bulkheads. Though I did imagine the Star Army's as larger than that nonetheless.
Yeah. I'm not sure where the continued "nuh uuuh" is coming from. Pretty irrelevant. This proposal to nerf the Aether Pulse Cannon has essentially been turned down.I'll admit I've been scratching my head at this lack of consencus at what kind of damage the Predator's plasma caster did, since Wes had mentioned that his intended weapon was meant to be larger anyways. "Why are they saying that? Didn't Wes mention he intended bigger?"
I’m down with it doing that kind of explosive damage. Really, it’s what I’ve been saying, I really don’t wanna Nerf it. It’s just that that is not what tier 7 and 8 would look like.View attachment 22287
Those holes straight through thick steel plating look far more powerful than Tier 4 or 5. But Wes said it wasn't based on the Predator's plasma caster. But even if the Aetheric Pulse Cannon were based on it, something that small could justifiably be that powerful.
It’s changing nothing in RP unless you have literally been playing this as fully automatic artillery. I would love to see some examples of this being used in your RP. T7-8 is used on tanks so you must be describing a weapon that is firing aether pulses the size of a 100 gal propane tank rather than “small aetheric pulses.”I don't want to negate past RP by explaining away a sudden shift down two tiers and would not enjoy seeing one of my most veteran players have one of their mainstays nerfed in the process.
I don’t really get why a compromise needs to be made on this. One of us has used this weapon in RP for years at the DR it has been presented at, and the other one simply wants a nerf to satisfy a headcanon about what DRs are supposed to be. It’s ridiculous that my RP (and that of others through the years) is being retconned by some player who has never even used the weapon in RP.Raz wants Tier 7, Rizzo wants Tier 5, I'm going to compromise and rule that it's Tier 6.
Dude, tier 6 is what the inventor of DRv3 suggested. I ask you again. Have you been portraying this weapon as a full auto howitzer?It's for the Mindy, but the Thought Armors can use all Mindy accessories because they lack many of their own.
Nobody's RP is being retconned, that's completely and provably untrue.It’s ridiculous that my RP (and that of others through the years) is being retconned by some player who has never even used the weapon in RP.
If you look back in the thread in Post 12, Fred suggested Tier 4, Light Anti-Armor.Dude, tier 6 is what the inventor of DRv3 suggested. I ask you again. Have you been portraying this weapon as a full auto howitzer?
