The Tier Focuses

by **Game Master** Sun Jul 29, 2018 11:30 pm

Welcome everyone~ We have a new system up in place for our missions! We call them Focuses. What are they? Well I'll tell you. Focuses focus upon one aspect of your character. As in, they will help you gain extra money, do magic, help with combat and talents. It's a lot of information, but trust me,it's going to be worth it.

We have 4 Focuses to pick from: Innate Ability, Combat, Talent, and Wealth. Each Focus consists of unique abilities your characters will pick be able to earn as you progress. Think of it as a standard RPG class system. Once you make your character, you decide what you want to do and how you wish to build your character. Some are more work than others, but all are worth it. So let me break it down every single one of them for you.

Innate Ability:

Innate Ability is a large focus. It allows you to do nearly anything your mind can create. In this Focus, you focus upon Magic, Technology, or some kind of Ability that is unique to you. Examples would be Fire Magic, Shadow Magic, Building Robots to help you do things, or Nijutus of some kind. At each new tier, you gain the ability to add a new ability/spell that will fall into one of these 5 categories: Support (Healing), Control (Buff and Debuffs), Offense(Set damage/damage dice toward a single or multiple targets), and Transformation (Altering and Transformation). While there are many different things you can do, and please, go ahead and do whatever you can, most things you are attempting to do will fall into one of these categories. As well, we have a tier layout of what you can expect from each tier:

Tier 0 Magic: If you take Battle Magic, you gain a Tier 0 Spell that acts as your weapon. It works like normal weapon after.

Tier 1: (Can be used as many times as you want in a mission)
Heals: Heals 5 damage
Damage: Deals 5 damage
Buff: Lasts 1 post (Roll tier die for buff effect) (minimum +1 effect)
Debuff: Lasts 1 post (Roll tier for debuff effect) (minimum -1 effect)

Tier 2: (1 times with tier 2, 2 time with tier 3, 3 times with tier 4, and 4 times with tier 5 per mission)
Heals: Heals 10 HP
Damage: Deals 10 Damage
Buff: Lasts 2 (Roll tier for buff effect) (minimum +1 effect)
Debuff: Lasts 2 posts (Roll tier for debuff effect) (minimum -1 effect)

Tier 3: (1 time with tier 3, 2 times with tier 4 and 3 times with tier 5 per mission)
Heals: Heals 15 HP
Damage: Deals 15 Damage
Buff: Lasts 3 posts (Roll tier for buff effect) (minimum +1 effect)
Debuff: Lasts 3 posts (Roll tier for debuff effect) (minimum -1 effect)

Tier 4: (1 time with tier 4 and 2 times with tier 5 per mission)
Heals: Heals 20 HP
Damage: Deals 20 Damage
Buff: Lasts 4 posts (Roll tier for buff effect) (minimum +2 effect)
Debuff: Lasts 4 posts (Roll tier for debuff effect) (minimum -2 effect)

Tier 5: (1 time per mission)
Passive: Doubles efficiency of one type

This isn't a perfect system, just a guideline, but this is the layout we'll be following. As stated before, this is more of a guideline rather than a 100% strict rule. Mod/Admin must approve the write up of this section before you may use it.

In this Focus, we are allowing you to pick one of three at each tier. This way, you can build your combat character any which way you want, within what we are giving you. Follow this tree and you will be fine.

Talent:

In this focus, you are focusing only on your talents. Instead of gaining special extra abilities that let you do things, you can now apply your talents, as well as gain a few more, in a whole new way. Unlike Combat, you only get to have 1 thing. However, you get to pick which talent you would like you apply this to. You can mix and match any way you want at any time.

Tier 1: (Once per mission per tier)
Talents in Combat (roll extra attack die for each tier) (You use a talent to help with an attack. If you succeed in the extra talent roll on top of your attack roll, you get to deal extra damage thanks to your advantage in the talent)

Tier 2: (1 time with tier 2, 2 time with tier 3, 3 times with tier 4 and 4 times with tier 5 per mission)
Reroll Talent (You get to reroll the talent if you fail)

Tier 3: (1 time with tier 3, 2 times with tier 4 and 3 times with tier 5 per mission)
Auto Talent Success (1 Talent)

Tier 4: (1 times with tier 4 and 2 times with tier 5 per mission)
Extra Talents (2 extra per level after obtaining tier four)

Tier 5: (1 time per mission)
Auto Talent Crit (Can be used for all talent checks in a post, max 3)
