NaotoKuroShiro Report post Posted November 17, 2015 Both naoto (that cross up kick...) and hibiki look extremely hype! hopefully naoto fills the sour void that I had after realizing how boring I found bullet, he looks exactly like how I thought a character like her would play.

AchedSphinx Report post Posted November 17, 2015 Nine sounds interesting with that amount of spell combinations to remember on top of combos. I hope all the combinations have at least some situational usefulness. Though considering how video games are, she will have a set of spell combos that are far more useful than the rest.

BlackYakuzu94 Report post Posted November 17, 2015 Jesus Christ, out of twenty something spell combinations, I'm certain at least 2-3 of them are going to have some type of situational use. Really curious to what types of effects her spells have. Do some freeze? Do they lock opponents down? So many possibilities. It looks like she'll be the "difficult, but rewarding" type of character to contrast Naoto and Hibiki's simpler playstyles. I can imagine how much hell its going to be to memorize and setup the right combinations of spells. Oh yes, I might not even play this character and I want to know more about her.

oh no, he said Report post Posted November 17, 2015 There's a decent chance I will not be playing nine because jesus chirst that sounds insane to manage, but at the same time I am incredibly hype to see people get good at her. The versatility of having 20 possible outcomes is kind of the most insane thing I've heard, especially if some of the combinations are more utility spells than outright attacks.

Well duh, you should always learn about your potential enemies, and Nine is totally going to be a common pick when CF lands on consoles. My only wish is for her to have an obvious weakness despite this "You have the options for everything" design, and since she seems to take a lot of time to get her best magic, that sounds good enough to me. No one wants to have another Kokonoe-like "Well, she's supposed to be strong in the story, so let's give her everything" design. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

oh no, he said Report post Posted November 17, 2015 I don't think order of the stocks matters(that would be really complex for a character who already looks insanely complex). Assuming combinations of two are possible since a singular stock produces results, you get this: Spoiler Fi/Fi/Fi Fi/Fi Fi Wa/Wa/Wa Wa/Wa Wa Wi/Wi/Wi Wi/Wi Wi Fi/Fi/Wa Fi/Fi/Wi Wa/Wa/Wi Wa/Wa/Fi Wi/Wi/Fi Wi/Wi/Wa Fi/Wa Fi/Wi Wi/Wa Fi/Wa/Wi Granted, that's still 19, not twenty, but it's possible there might be an outcome for having no slots. Like a tao taunt level magic spell or something lol. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Karsticles Report post Posted November 17, 2015 Likely, only the 3-element spells will matter: Fi/Fi/Fi Fi/Fi/Wi Fi/Fi/Wa Fi/Wi/Wi Fi/Wa/Wa Fi/Wi/Wa Wi/Wi/Wi Wi/Wi/Wa Wa/Wa/Wa Wa/Wa/Wi Everything else will be weaksauce, like Dormammu's non-maxed spells.

Kikirin Report post Posted November 17, 2015 Looks like I was sniped, but I do think no-stock makes the 20th. Spoiler No Stock (1 combination) None 1 Stock (3 combinations) Fire Water Wind 2 Stock (6 combinations) Fire x 2 Water x 2 Wind x 2 Fire + Water Fire + Wind Water + Wind 3 stock (10 combinations) Fire x 3 Water x 3 Wind x 3 Fire x 2 + Water Fire x 2 + Wind Water x 2 + Fire Water x 2 + Wind Wind x 2 + Fire Wind x 2 + Water Fire + Water + Wind Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
YoYoCheese Report post Posted November 17, 2015 I think you guys are right, I forgot about Fire Fire Wind and the like. I feel that level 1 and 2 spells may have some situational use (like, say, you get caught on defense and only have one or two charges to defend yourself with) or maybe, say FFF is only slightly better than FF and players wind up going for FF more simply because it can be used more often. I say we wait until we wait until the game hits and people can start experimenting with stuff. There are a ton of different ways optimal use of her spell system can work out.

Tokkan Report post Posted November 17, 2015 6 hours ago, spesialo said: Translating the rest. Correct me if I'm wrong though. The stock can hold maximum 3 type of magic. The combination of the stock will change what magic would appear when pressing D. 1 fire -> Coral of Wrath 3 fire -> Rubellite of Rage (appears like powered up version of Coral of Wrath) 1 water + 1 wind + 1 fire -> Nephrite of Demise The magic can reach up to 20 combinations. That fact made it seems like it would be most important to memorize the combination. Being aware of the icons during battle is also essential. Other than magic, there's also the special moves and DD. Some of them will change according to the slot. Special Moves Flack (Black?) Snatcher: get a buff according to the active slot. Crimson Raider: rush/charge attack Exceed Accel Scarlet Vein: the arm of Hi no Kagutsuchi crushes the opponent. Distortion Drive Azurite Inferno: crucifix the opponent and shoots magic orbs at them. The damage will change according to the stock. Last, she turns into a phantom when dashing. Wait, is it "Flack Snatcher" or "Flux Nurture"? The kanji name implies it's should be nurture... Also considering the "kanji name" for the Exceed Accel is " 嘲笑う真緋の虚栄 " (Sneering Scarlet Vanity") shouldn't the "katakana name" be Scarlet Vain instead of Scarlet Vein Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NaotoKuroShiro Report post Posted November 17, 2015 I know I'm probably wrong but is nine's drive like ramlethal's combination attacks? that's the idea I'm getting off of this, still she sounds really really fun to try out at least. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Litherain-XIII Report post Posted November 17, 2015 for some reason i got a swinging feeling someone is gonna find a spell combination that creates oki with her and is plus as hell on block. out of all those 20 combination....come on son. its gotta happen Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Litherain-XIII Report post Posted November 17, 2015 most likely. seems like the higher the number is to 10 the more the opinion of said players making them out to be pretty good. if you scroll down one of them gives naoto a 4 as he explains he believes hes not all that good really in his opinion so he gave him a 4. theres a 2nd opinion by another player by that as well which explains the 2 numbers rating for each character.

That's why I fucking love this character. Looking forward to the new Terumi. The fact that a very good Azrael player is telling us and Arcsys that Azrael didn't need a DP and giving him 11/10 tell a lot. Hibiki got my very close attention. He is really fast, which I like but most of the time I prefer mid range chars. His movements are amazing and his normals are fast. If they don't give me Jubei by the console release. I may add him to my army. So They gave Mu-12 and Kagura a 7. I can take that since it is coming from Mitsurugi. Relius won't be low tier again in his life, lol.

I took it more as how satisfactory the character was in terms of game design. They clarify multiple times that they can't tell you whether they think the character is good or bad so far.

She just seems to be a bit weaker and we still have to wait until more players can try her out and try utilise the princess' new tool more efficiently. Spoiler Interesting that Hazama and Tager have such a low rating. We all know that the changes to his Ouroboros-Drive were multiple slaps to the face but still... And many assumed after the first two location tests that Tager will become even stronger in Centralfiction with the new mechanics and the buffs. It intrigue me what they have changed.
