If you don’t have an Outer Animal and want to sign up as a fighter, [u][url=https://www.bungie.net/en/Forum/Post/251577612/0/0]go here[/url][/u]. If you’re looking for the Master Post, [u][url=https://www.bungie.net/en/Forum/Post/251577583/0/0]go here[/url][/u]. If you want to look at available arenas, [u][url=https://www.bungie.net/en/Forum/Post/251577846/0/0]go here[/url][/u]. If you want to see some examples of the old loadouts for ideas, [u][url=https://www.bungie.net/en/Forums/Post/244129986?sort=0&page=0]go here[/url][/u], though you’ll have to scroll quite a distance before you start seeing loadouts. Keep in mind that the old loadouts are not necessarily guaranteed to follow these new rules. Now that you have your Outer Animal, post your loadout here. These rules will likely change over time, but remember, anything goes, except: 1. NO FIREARMS! Projectiles like arrows are probably fine, but in honor of the original rule, I will be banning all firearms. 2. Only 1 gimmick/ability per person. This means that no matter how much you want elemental abilities AND be able to summon a Death Star to your aid, you can only pick one. For example, my old character had invisibility and armor that blinded my foes. In this season, I would only be able to pick one. 3. Vehicles and mounts will count as a gimmick/ability. This includes mechs, tanks, spaceships, etc. Though I would recommend against having full-on drivable vehicles like tanks and spaceships since combat arenas are designed with man-to-man combat in mind. But if you wanted a mount such as a horse or a giant dog to ride, that’s fine and dandy, but that would have to count as your ability. (Vehicles and mounts will count as passive abilities) 4. I’m only allowing a few uses of any active Unique Abilities per battle. These are basically akin to Supers in Density, so make it count! If you have a loadout you want to use, but aren’t sure it’s legal, go ahead and post it and I’ll work with you on it. I’ll tell you right now, you might want to write it out on a Google Doc or a Notes app before posting it here so you can easily go back and fiddle with it while writing without being annoyed by Bungie’s interface. And also so you don’t accidentally delete all your work. This is quite a long process and quite a bit of thought should be put into this. Here is a skeleton frame to work with so you know what I need for loadouts: [quote][u]Weapon(s):[/u] [u]Defense(s):[/u] [u]Ability:[/u] [u]Attributes:[/u] [u]Entrance:[/u] [u]Appearance:[/u][/quote] The “Weapons” category would be where you put any and all offensive weapons and abilities that your fighter uses. The “Defenses” category would be armor, shields, and other defensive abilities that your fighter possesses. The “Ability” category is where your unique ability that your fighter can call upon is described. This ability can either be passive, meaning always in effect, or active, meaning your fighter has to consciously activate the ability. Unique abilities are things like summoning a Death Star, turning invisible, having permanent immunity to a certain element, etc. This is not to be confused with weapon and defense abilities which serve as basic attacks and defense. The “Attributes” category is a little more complicated: this is where you describe what 2 traits your fighter focuses on out of 4 choices: [b]Strength[/b] (power of your character’s basic attacks with their weapons/abilities), [b]Endurance[/b] (number of hits you can take before going down & how long it takes before your character gets tired), [b]Speed[/b] (how fast your character can move, dodge, attack, etc.), and [b]Tactics[/b] (the efficacy of environmental actions like hiding in a bush or climbing a tree). Also, be sure to label one choice as a [b]Primary Attribute[/b] and the other as a [b]Secondary Attribute[/b], so that I know what your fighter’s priorities are. If you want a more in-depth explanation of what each attribute does specifically, [url=https://www.bungie.net/en/Forums/Post/251633338]go here[/url]. The “Entrance” category is where you describe how you arrive in the arena. What’s your theme song? How awesome do you look upon arrival? Is it like a javelin in Anthem or more like Snake coming out of his box? Go crazy with the creativity here! The “Appearance” category is pretty self-explanatory. This is where you describe, to the best of your ability, the looks of your character. Give me [i]ALL[/i] the badassery that you want. I will embellish as I see fit, though, since all fighters deserve their own time in the spotlight.
