Septerra Core: Legacy of the Creator
« on: January 16, 2008, 12:09:21 AM »
PC RPG stat topic number 2!  Slightly different from PS:T, in that the stats and everything are far more console-ish.  First, the usual notes:

1) Levels
Levels are not taken equally, since every character levels at different speeds.  I took levels at an arbitrary experience point total of 2056481.  This works very well - taking the average of everyone's levels at this total gives an average level of 54, which is only 2 levels below Maya's level at this point ( Maya being the generally average character at everything ).  Led levels very slowy ( level 32! ), while Selena levels very fast ( level 72! ). 

2) Equipment
As per the usual, just best store-boughts or uniques.  Granted, this does slightly inflate the couple characters who don't share weapons ( Led, Badu ) or armour ( Badu ), but not by too much overall.  So, who uses what:

Weapons
Engines: Maya, Grubb, Runner, Araym, Lobo
Swords: Corgan, Selena 
Wrenches: Led
Knives: Badu

Armour
Human Body Armour: Maya, Grubb, Corgan, Led, Selena, Araym
Robot Body Armour: Runner, Lobo
Primitive Body Armour: Badu

Human Leg Armour: Maya, Grubb, Corgan, Selena, Araym
Robot Leg Armour: Runner, Led, Lobo
Primitive Leg Armour: Badu

3) Statistics
HP - OMG DEATH!!!!
Strength - Physical power; factors into HP, Armour and Power of melee attacks
Vitality - Hardiness; factors into HP, Armour and Speed
Agility - Speediness; factors into Strike for physical attacks, Power in general and Speed
Perception - Awarness; factors into Strike, Core, and Power of ranged attacks
Psyche - Intellecutal ability; factors into Strike for spells, as well as Core

Strike - Accuracy
Armour - Defense
Power - Physical Power
Core - Functions as MP, magic attack power, and magical defense power
Speed - Actual speed value of a character; this can be taken literally, as characters twice the speed of another will actually be twice as fast in building up their attack gauge

4) Speed Notes
The game uses an ATB-esque system to dictate who gets to act when.  The bar that indicates this is divided into 3 sections.  When the battle starts, all allies and enemies have the bar set at 0, and it fills up based on their speed.  Once you reach the end of each 1/3 of the bar, you can perform a tech of that level ( level 1 techs at 1/3, level 2 techs at 2/3, level 3 techs at 3/3 ) or any lower levels.  Using any tech at any level of the bar ( i.e., using a level 1 tech at 1/3 fill or using a level 1 tech at 3/3 fill ) will reset the bar to 0, and start the filling up process again.

For what actually constitutes a "turn": I'd say that, upon their turn ( based on speed ), 1.5 sections of the bar would be filled.  This works out quite well: vs. endgame enemies, Araym tends to have nearly his full bar filled ( missing only a tiny sliver of it ) before the opponents get a chance to act; on the other hand, Runner has a little less than 1/3 of his bar filled by the time all enemies act.  Corgan and Maya, the two closest to average speed, get about 1/2 of the total bar filled before enemies get to act.  So this works out well: their speed indicates when they get to act, and each action, they have 1/2 of the bar to work with ( so if they save up for a round, they can use the level 3 techs ).
