Do I or Don't I? Malefactor.... - Retane - 04-16-2015
Do I or don't I? A question for the masses.
Anyone can give me your opinions.... In the upcoming Event, do I take the Artefact, or do I leave it behind?
It's a toss up. I mean its a risk losing it. But I'm not sure if Retane would take it off and leave it. I mean I know a few ways to do it, and in someways it may even seem right at that part in my storyline....
I'm not sure? Whats your opinions? Would you like to see The Horsemen walk into the Abyss with the risk of succmbing to the Abyss in an entirely different way?

Bring it. I'll gladly take it off your hands if we face2face. =O! =P!
On a nonspam related note, it is a SERIOUS advantage for you to have and could better your overall performance in the saga. It's kind of like going for a roundhouse instead of a boxing combo: high risk, high reward. You could gain more artefacts simply because you brought it, but also, you risk losing it all together. It's a tough call that only you can really make, mate.

Well I'm sure there are multiple risks and benefits to taking a artifact into the eve-
Ah frack it, YOLO

Technically, the orgosynth isn't that big of a deal for me. Losing it or not. It's just a peice of writing material.It's technically a Tier 2 Power up for the price of a Tier 1.
Im more looking at the storyline value.... It's a hard choice that way....
Re: Do I or Don't I? Malefactor.... - Retane - 04-16-2015
For those that don't know what my Artefact does, its in my roster, it cost 1 Sp to use and gives you +2 to each stat. The sonsequence is the staff rolls 1-20 Randomly. If it ever rolls 1. it possess you and you have to do what the staff tell you.
Each time you win the roll, the next activation roll is one less.
Re: Do I or Don't I? Malefactor.... - Sasuke Uchiha - 04-16-2015
Actually... thinking back on this I would highly advise you to use the artefact. I mean, it is only a temporary gain in the fist place as it will, sooner or later, try to kill you. So, being that it is only a limited time benefit for you, what better time could you use more odds in your favor than in DA?

In my opinion, it entirely depends on whether or not your character has regained any of his memories regarding his previous life, especially in relation to DA. Your character is one of the few to come from the same universe that DA originates from, so Retane has an actual history with the event, which would no doubt influence his decision.
If he hasn't recovered any of his memories, then he might assess the situation with a clear mind and could potentially regard the artefact as too valuable/volatile to be used in an event like DA. If, however, he HAS regained his memories, then he very well might be eager/desperate enough to win to take it with him.

Enroshia mentioned it as a "Stay away from anything called Dante's Abyss"
He's had flashbacks small ones of Tapion. Most of them were the first meeting with Jack and getting the Malefactor... All but 1 involved the 2007 DA in some form or fashion>_>
Re: Do I or Don't I? Malefactor.... - Proto Man - 04-16-2015
Bring it.
If anything, it'll add another fun variable to the island.
Re: Do I or Don't I? Malefactor.... - Retane - 04-16-2015
YOU WOULD Make me GO insane on purpose>_>
Re: Do I or Don't I? Malefactor.... - Proto Man - 04-16-2015
That's for the Random Number Generator to decide.
Although I'm not saying that I wouldn't think it awesome and entertaining if you did fail that save and turned into some like, crazed, symbiote version of Retane.
Re: Do I or Don't I? Malefactor.... - Retane - 04-16-2015
Lol Isn't that usually how Retane turns out anyways?

Hmmm, while I can see that as a good reason to join DA, I wouldn't consider it as a particularly strong motivation for Retane to go to any lengths to win.
I guess then it pretty much comes down to how willing is he to throw all caution to the wind.
Re: Do I or Don't I? Malefactor.... - Retane - 04-16-2015
You haven't read any of my stuff, I assume.... He has one objective.... Get Stronger.... Get Stronger.... Get Stronger...
He knows who he was... He knows some of what he has done... His instincts are driving him right now.
The End Game is one day to be as strong as he once was, to find out a way back to his own universe...
Winning DA... Means getting stronger...
Re: Do I or Don't I? Malefactor.... - Dark Link - 04-16-2015
I've read some of it, but since I've had so much trouble with keeping up with just the stuff I have to do, reading hasn't been my highest priority. So you'll have to forgive me that I'm not very familiar with your current storyline.
Then, if that is already his mindset, he could very well be determined to win DA at all costs. And if that's the case, then using the artefact seems like a no-brainer. Plus, what Sasuke said is true; the Orgosynth only has a limited number of uses and has a chance to backfire. If there was any environment where you could use it with relatively few repercussions if you failed your roll, it would be DA.

I am not sure I am comfortable with this.

Lol, why? Because if Retane fails a roll, you'll be the first person his frenzy assaults? xD
*Said this in a joke, but in all honesty, alliances with someone who has a mind controlling parasite could prove troublesome.
Re: Do I or Don't I? Malefactor.... - Proto Man - 04-17-2015
Or this is all just an elaborate ruse for Jack to lull Retane into thinking he's a pliable sidekick.
Then we hit the end of Day 2 and BAM! Biggest shocker ever.
Re: Do I or Don't I? Malefactor.... - Monkey D. Luffy - 04-17-2015
My opinion is simple: What's the point of even having the artefact if you don't pull it out during big events? Sure you run the risk of losing it, but it gives you an advantage. If you're certain you'll prevail, go for it.
Re: Do I or Don't I? Malefactor.... - Caira Ayryn - 04-17-2015
If you are trying to play it safe, don't bring it.
But if you do bring it you will have a significant advantage. Not to mention you can always steal it back. You could even win a better artifact because you ended up bringing it.
I like the idea of bringing it because you might have more fun in the competition, as well as add a surprise variable to DA. It's not as fun to hold back in a fight but there will be those who try and steal it from you. It's a great challenge and its a nice incentive to not loose the competition and also have Retane himself grow stronger.
