Screenshot Saturday: 0.3.7 Preview #47!
Good morning!
It was, unfortunately, another busy week. With the time I did get, I've been more focused on enemy data than maps this week- mostly finishing touches that I could quickly do.
Here's a look at one of the enemies!
Cyblins are the "big guys" of this area; they've upgraded themselves with mechanical armor of spell-tooled steel, though it's debated among Goblins as to whether having a sword for an arm is actually that big of an upgrade outside of battle, and the gun arm is pretty impractical for everyday use. (The hover legs, however, are unanimously agreed to be really awesome.)
In battle, their Tachyon Blade can cut right through Defense, or their Forecaster Blaster can fire a Water attack, Thunder attack and Wind attack in rapid succession.

Was looking at the Adaptive Damage TVTropes draft: https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/discussion.php?id=o6fd9nbvr8rnryh2d0oqzhcn
And was wondering how smart Dynamis Jolt is. Does it run through the whole damage calculation for each type of damage to judge which element to use? With "15 Neutral or Thunder Damage" and 1x Block Buster, I was thinking of possible rare cases where the Block Buster would make Thunder stronger than it would be otherwise.
Or is Block Buster applied regardless of damage type? Never used the potion myself.
The formula picks whichever damage formula will get the most damage. If a resistant enemy has a high enough Block Strength that the Thunder damage would be better than the Neutral damage, it takes the Thunder damage, and vice versa.
awesome!
Cool goblins!
"Forecaster Blaster" Heh, rhymes! Oh, those are powerful elements, anti-block, action cancel, and Soften!
May your weeks calm down!
