Talk:When Violence is Appropriate

Kai Shen is an example of this; a philosopher-general rather than a combat wombat.


 * Spider is an okay combat character at low essence and assuming Shawn allows my suggestions on the effectiveness of Singing Staves in combat. At higher essence, fuck combat imma dragon. Emerald is a Zenith who is good at ping-spamming and so would be helpful against CoDs, but against anyone else she's likely to be all "I have high compassion waa waa don't kill the obviously evil dude".


 * Vic says: Masterful Prana of Generic Reflexive Evasion Combo, here we come!


 * Vic says: "Small escort" is still enough to use the mass combat rules! And don't forget summoned elementals, who can follow us around incorporeal until shit hits the fan. Materialize for 1 mote? Fuck yes.


 * It won't happen overnight, but Shen is going for Knockout Blow - once he's Essence 3 or 4 that should 1-shot most Dragon-Blooded. Added bonus that we can then brainwash them into servitude. Even easier, we send some minions to grovel before the angry Terrestrial, appease them with booze and hookers, and jump them in our specially-prepared DB-jumping Suite.
 * DB-jumping Suite aka Worldly Illusion! Poor little guys, what with their lack of meaningful Integrity charms.
