Need Details!

Edit: Need Covers!

Cheers for writing this up man icon_e_biggrin.gif

Now we just have to wait for a wild IceIX to appear icon_e_wink.gif

4

Oh I really love Pokemon references icon_e_smile.gif
Do you also have ‘Gotta catch them all’ in your mind if you have to collect something? icon_e_wink.gif

5

Kinda what I was thinking of. Exact layout and everything. Couldn’t be any easier, or less time consuming, for a developer. I am one, and time is definitely my most valuable commodity, so I figure anything would help.

I appreciate the time he puts into the board here.

6

You need more info? What other info do you need? Looks like it’s all up there. ::whistles innocently::

7

Haha! Thank you very much! icon_mrgreen.gif

EDIT
Any build ideas? I can’t decide which skills to choose right now…

EDIT 2
IceIX, could you explain a bit clearer how Molotov Cocktail works, please? Does it create a 2(1) turns countdown? Or does it create a countdown that could potentially go on forever (until matched or otherwise removed), which creates new Strike tile every 2(1) turns?

EDIT 3
Nevermind… answered got posted by the time I made the edit 2 icon_razz.gif

Thank you very much ^^ but I have really one other question about his black ability: generates it a countdown tile that is as long there as it isn’t destroyed and always generating attack tiles or is it only generating one of them and vanishes?

9

Awesome! 5/3/5, I think. Sounds like an awesome character.

10

It generates one that hangs around and ‘ticks’ another tile onto the board when it goes off, then resets. It doesn’t go away on its own, so it’s a definite target for board control or instant matching targeting.

11

First Idea would be 5/5/3, red is a finishing move anyway and the level 5 of the other two skills is too tempting icon_e_wink.gif

12

Thank you again, yes that’s really nasty. (perhaps a job for Bag-Man and his locking ability icon_e_wink.gif
)

13

Much obliged.

14

I vote 5/3/5. 5 on red is a must, less then 40%+8AP=death to any character. That’s awesome.
Green, there is not a huge difference between 2 strike tiles and 3 strike tiles even if all 3 are slightly stronger then the level 3.
Black has to be 5. 1 countdown for the tile means it is much less fragile and the level 4 increase for the attack tiles is not applied to just 1 tile but all the tiles that are generated by the “spreading fire”.

So 5/3/5 is my vote. That is an insanely awesome character, the highest AP cost is 8!

15

Oh another question, about his red: It checks first if the percentage is there and then decides to down the target or do damage or does it damage first and then downs the target if its low enough?

16

but think about it, 8 red ap for 2800 damage if the character has 7000 hp.

that’s too good to pass up. flat out destroyer of tanks. tickler of nontanks.

17

I used Wolverine for very long time and can’t wait to get my hands on Punisher, because he is clearly a nice upgrade.

I am really big fan of Strike tiles. Therefore I am very interested in green. In addition, green is still the least common skill (only 10 out of current 77), so it would be waste not to use this one to full potential when there are so many other red skills (16 total - most common).
Red will mostly be great against buffed characters e.g. Rag in Lightning - you can finish him with up to 8k HP. On the other hand 10% in normal cases means only up to 700 damage, which is not really a huge deal if you add to board 100+ Strike tiles on regular basis.

Retribution - Red 8 AP
The Punisher draws his sidearm and finishes what he started. Damages the target for 118. If they are below 20% of their max health, he downs them.
Level Upgrades

Sound like World of Warcraft, Warrior Execute

That 5 point in red looks nasty

19

Moonstone could have some fun with his Black ability. When I go against one next, definitely gonna see what chaos can be done there.

Pre-damage. If the enemy has 4000/10000 HP you’ll deal damage. If he’s at 3999/10000, you’ll take them out immediately.
