00:00 * Schism headtilts at Dappled. "That implies that you're a girl."

00:00 <Schism> Or at least non-binary.

00:01 * Dapper_Dappled is non-binary, but presenting Fem is a lot of effort and risky in conserative land.

00:01 * Schism mmnfs. And hugs the Dappled.

00:01 * Dapper_Dappled hugs.

00:01 <Schism> Presenting as femme full-time is certainly not something I'm brave enough to do _yet_...

00:02 * Dapper_Dappled wears women's jeans pretty much full time.

00:02 * Schism also provides the Dappled with some pancakes with apricot jam and maple syrup.

00:02 * Dapper_Dappled happily noms.

00:02 <Schism> I can't wear those typically, though narrow-fit is nice.

00:03 * Schism is a large sort.

00:04 <Schism> Not BMI-wise, but 6' is hard to escape.

00:04 * Dapper_Dappled 's close to it, IRL and my diet has given me a bit of a gut.

00:04 * Schism nods, "Going to have to do crunches..."

00:05 * Dapper_Dappled hisses at actually exerting effort.

00:05 * Schism is in the meantime focusing more on seeing how certain medications treat her before she goes off on a health tear.

00:05 <Ali> And hten the body changes

00:05 <Schism> Which is why I now need to take 15u insulin.

00:05 * Ali bleps

00:06 <Schism> Ali: Yes, which is also why I haven't bought clothes, much as I'd like... 5 days is not enough to provide a decent idea as to what puberty will do to me.

00:06 <Ali> Cause you never know how much more you'll get

00:06 <Schism> Or how much less.

00:07 * Ali pat pats the Schism

00:07 * Schism grumps, "Is gonna have to be 6 months before I have at least SOME idea..."

00:07 * Dapper_Dappled is jelly of Schism. Is glad for her too.

00:07 *** Joins: ChaosMageX-HTPC (CMXHTPC@Pony-nc32n2.tx.comcast.net)

00:08 * Schism hugs the Dappled. "I hope you're able to get something for yourself soon..."

00:21 <Cepheid> Bleh.

00:22 <Cepheid> I think I can just barely solo Alatreon.  Barely.

00:22 <Dapper_Dappled> That's much better than me.

00:22 <Cepheid> I can do enough damage with a dragon element weapon to weaken the nova, but just barely.  Need to strengthen the weapon using augmentation.

00:27 <Cepheid> Guh, why does my face hurt so much?

00:31 * Cepheid alternates back and forth between two regions to spawn new monsters in the guiding lands. Faster than using the balls.

00:33 <Cepheid> C'moooon Ruiner.

00:35 <Cepheid> ...

00:35 <Cepheid> Wait, how do I have 11 Ruiner Nergigante lures?

02:01 <Cepheid> I have no words for this.

02:01 <Cepheid> https://i.imgur.com/8NfdUpW.png I did it.

02:02 <TormentedDragon> well done!

02:03 <Cepheid> Freakin' hell.

02:03 <Cepheid> This is the first Monster Hunter I've completed to the very end.

02:03 <Cepheid> To be honest I wasn't sure if I'd make it in time for Rise.

02:04 <Cepheid> ... Geezus christ.

02:04 <Cepheid> Fatalis Beta+ has 3 level-4 slots on all pieces.

02:06 <Cepheid> His weapon is...  From an elemental perspective, it's garbage.

02:06 <Cepheid> From a physical damage perspective, nothing beats it.

02:06 <Cepheid> 1,225 raw physical attack for the ultimate Fatalis weapon.  Only problem?

02:06 <Cepheid> -30% affinity.

02:07 <Cepheid> It's one of those weapons that you forge and then fix the affinity on with augments or Critical Eye.

02:09 <Cepheid> Oh, by the way, TormentedDragon, an interesting tidbit about the Excitable A-Lister.

02:09 <Cepheid> He's the Ace Cadet from MH4U and MHGU.

02:11 * uni flops

02:11 <uni> good morning~

02:11 <Cepheid> Morning Uni.

02:28 <Cepheid> Yeah, I kinda realized it when I went back to GU the other night, and talked to the Ace Cadet.

02:31 <Cepheid> Anyhoo.  At this point I need to lay down.  My face feels like it's about to explode.

04:55 <Sunrise_Flare> hihi

04:56 * Ali gasps and huggles Sunrise_Flare lots!

04:56 <Cepheid> Hey Nelos, I got something from a crazy lady for you.  A glove from her.  You robbed her, and for some reason that made her all enamoured with you.  *Wanders back*

04:56 * Sunrise_Flare hugs back

04:57 * Sunrise_Flare has to go to work soon tho

04:58 * Ali nuu's, just as Sunrise_Flare comes back they get taken!

04:59 <Sunrise_Flare> it's good to see you though

05:04 * Ali misses Sunrise_Flare

05:09 * Cepheid claims Drarayne Thelas' house for herself, murdering it's occupant after solving their cave rat problem.

05:12 * Dapper_Dappled appears to breifly hugs Ali and Sunrise_Flare. Good friend ponies.

05:12 * Ali snugs Dapper_Dappled too

05:12 <Cepheid> Man this lady was crazy about pillows.

05:35 <ConfusionRift> Hello everypony.

05:39 <Finwe> Lt Cdr ConfusionRift, Mlles Ali, Filly_Nightmares and Schism; Messrs Cepheid, Lumindia, PinkieShy, Sunrise_Flare and Dapper_Dappled.

05:39 <Finwe> o7

05:39 <Cepheid> Hey Rifty.

05:39 <Finwe> Good morning.

05:39 <ConfusionRift> RAdm. Finwe. (salutes)

05:40 <ConfusionRift> Cepheid: And I see you killed the great big bad omen. :P

05:41 <Cepheid> Yerp.  To be honest I didn't think we'd pull it off.  Not until the fifth nova anyway.  And even then I had reservations.

05:41 <Cepheid> Fatalis hits hard.  Really hard.  One-shot-kill hard.  With 50 fire resist and 1200 defense.

05:42 <ConfusionRift> They reaaally beefed that thing. I mean, it used to be hard, for the wrong reasons. Now they made it hard AND painful.

05:44 <Cepheid> The worst attack is the jet turbine fireball.  The one that sounds like a jet turbine spinning up as he prepares to fire it.

05:45 <Cepheid> Before the second nova, it hits for around 75% of my health.  After the second nova, it one-shots me.

05:46 <Cepheid> The nova is mostly easy to deal with.  I say mostly because during the kill quest, I ended up too far away from the barrier.  I got blasted to oblivion.

05:47 <ConfusionRift> Eech.

05:51 <Cepheid> Worst part for us was when he got two hunters in one jet turbine blast.

05:51 <Cepheid> They were at full health too, so yeah.  That goes to show how bad that one fireball is.

05:52 <ConfusionRift> Jeez, man. That's 2/3 out for that one quest. Then again... I know what a full wipe looks like. It really sucks.

05:52 <Cepheid> This was the special assignment, so 2 out of 5.

05:53 <ConfusionRift> Oooh. Still.

05:53 <Cepheid> Yeh.

05:53 <Cepheid> My advice if this Fatalis makes a return, or you get to it...

05:53 <Cepheid> Either build up that fire resist, or learn his attacks and dodge.

05:53 <ConfusionRift> preferably both. :P

05:54 <Cepheid> That works too.

05:54 <Cepheid> Gotta say though, I do NOT know how shield-users manage to shield as much as they do.

05:54 <Cepheid> I always find myself getting caught in attacks that I cannot roll or dodge out of.

05:56 <ConfusionRift> Probably extended guard with leveled stamina.

05:57 <Cepheid> .... Oh my gods.

05:57 <Cepheid> The Palico armor.

05:57 <Cepheid> First off, the palico armor made from Fatalis parts dresses the cat up such that it LOOKS LIKE FATALIS.

05:57 <Cepheid> But it gets better.

05:57 <Cepheid> There's a little doll of a hunter on it's back with a knife out.

05:58 <ConfusionRift> Okay, that's awesome. :P

05:58 <Cepheid> https://i.imgur.com/kjwNTlr.png

05:59 <ConfusionRift> Yeah, I was looking at it. That is 100% a scaled down Fatalis. They should do that more often.

05:59 <Cepheid> ...

05:59 <Cepheid> The Fatalis weapon is a hunter doll.

06:00 <ConfusionRift> Yep. Looks like the bone blade, and one of the starter armors.

06:00 <Cepheid> "A Fatalis weapon that after seeking unparalleled destruction, turned into the very hunters it destroyed.

06:01 <ConfusionRift> Oooooh.

06:01 <Cepheid> It's not a small set, either.

06:01 <Cepheid> Stands to about half the hunter's height.

06:02 <Cepheid> But yeah, that's likely a lower resolution version of the actual Fatalis model, just with the felyne skeleton applied to it instead.

06:03 <ConfusionRift> As I said, it's just a scaled down model of Fatalis. It would look weird if it was too small. Also, seriously, that hunter has starter equipment. Whomever this hunter was, had balls or was that skilled.

06:05 <ConfusionRift> What would really make this a killer set is if they put out a way for them to snapshot your equipment and character set, and added that as "the hunter".

06:05 <ConfusionRift> But the set alone is a really nice trophy.

06:05 <Cepheid> Heh.

06:05 <Cepheid> Speaking of armor, Fatalis' Beta+ set is ridiculous.

06:06 <Cepheid> 3 level 4 slots in all pieces.

06:07 <ConfusionRift> This is it. This is the set, the final set.

06:07 <Cepheid> More or less.

06:07 <Cepheid> By the by, they actually did make the original Fatalis worse, and not in a Red/White Fatalis manner.

06:08 <Cepheid> Frontier has a variant called the Blue Flame Fatalis. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gs6rIRKpNUw

06:08 <Schism> Ohey, new episode of Helluva Boss.

06:08 * Schism also waves to everyone. Is still le tired. Something's completely futzed up her sleep schedule.

06:09 <ConfusionRift> Using Frontier is cheating. :P

06:09 <Cepheid> Heh. :P

06:09 <ConfusionRift> Hey there.

06:10 <Cepheid> That attack at 3 minutes man.

06:10 <ConfusionRift> Seriously, Frontier is just pure chaos. It's where hunters are tested or die trying.

06:11 <Cepheid> Probably a test bed for mechanics.

06:11 <ConfusionRift> The hell?! That was an aura bomb, I swear!

06:12 <ConfusionRift> The precursor to the meteor strike from you-know-who. :P

06:13 <Cepheid> Heh.

06:13 * ConfusionRift remembers those stupid lightning strikes.

06:15 <Cepheid> I wonder what White Fatalis was like in Frontier.

06:15 <Cepheid> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X168h-LKzP4

06:16 <Cepheid> Chaos, apparently.

06:16 <ConfusionRift> Doooood! This guy just waling while at like 2% health. That's a big, nope on my side!

06:17 <Cepheid> Hold on a sec.

06:18 <Cepheid> !link https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oeHb3ek1CaU

06:18 <DerpyBot> I need to ask Twilight about that one.

06:18 <DerpyBot> Twilight told me this video is about Monster Hunter Tri - Alatreon Solo in 9:40 (Heroics)

06:18 <ConfusionRift> Also, that's the original music playing. Well, remastered.

06:19 <ConfusionRift> ...with a hammer...

06:19 <Cepheid> A hammer, and at around 5% health.

06:19 <Cepheid> The entire time.

06:20 <ConfusionRift> There's a buff that increase damage while on low health.

06:20 <Cepheid> I am under the impression that the video is either a TAS run, or a player who has really planned things out.

06:20 <Cepheid> Because I couldn't hope to even pull something like that off, even after 10 years of constant playing.

06:21 <ConfusionRift> Likely not their first venture. (sees "Heroics" and "We out here breaking records seven years later.") I don't think this is a TAS. Some players are up to this level.

06:22 <Cepheid> I dunno.

06:22 <Cepheid> The timing and positioning is just too perfect.

06:22 <Cepheid> There's also some incredible prediction.

06:23 <Cepheid> Like, the player seems to know which attacks are coming.

06:23 * ConfusionRift starts seeing some misses. "I dunno maaan. I have seen this sort of craziness before."

06:23 <Cepheid> Yeah, but the prediction's insane.  He seems to know exactly which attack is going to be, where it'll stop.

06:24 <ConfusionRift> Most monsters are telegraphed. If you know all the moves, everything is kinda predictable. Not gonna defend it too much, because it COULD be a TAS, but again, I have seen this sort of gameplay in person before.

06:25 <Cepheid> Mind, I'm comparing it to World's telegraphing and reactions, and honestly..

06:26 <ConfusionRift> World is not as predictable, in terms of how monster react and attack. Also, that game is running at a higher FPS, so reactions have to be quicker.

06:26 <Cepheid> Yerp.

06:27 <Cepheid> And with Alatreon's mechanics in World, you don't really have time to be watching for the telegraphs.

06:28 <ConfusionRift> Huh. Noticed the head hitbox is bigger than the actual head.

06:30 <ConfusionRift> Huh. Ceadeus armor, with a pickle hammer. That armor has part breaker and earplugs.

06:31 <Cepheid> Yeh, part breaking is kind of important with Alatreon.

06:31 <ConfusionRift> The horns, right?

06:31 <Cepheid> Yeh.

06:32 <Cepheid> In Tri/3U, it controlled whether it'd go into flight mode or not.

06:33 <Cepheid> In World, it controls whether after the next nova, it switches to the opposing element.

06:33 <ConfusionRift> "Sometimes increases damage taken." And strotting with 5% health. This guuuyyyy.

06:34 <Cepheid> Well, to be honest, at 5% health, no matter what, any attack will cart you.

06:34 <ConfusionRift> Yarp.

06:35 <ConfusionRift> ...why must you hype me for MHW? :P

06:35 <Cepheid> Heh.

06:36 <Cepheid> I can't wait to see what bull*YAY* is thrown at us in Rise.

06:38 <Cepheid> I need another coffee.

06:42 * Ali doffs over ConfusionRift

06:43 * ConfusionRift patpats Ali. :P

06:45 <Cepheid> I am so exhausted I don't even want to be lazy.

06:51 <ConfusionRift> Fatalis: "Please help, my back itches!"

06:51 <Cepheid> There was an actual literal moment where I was running in circles during the slaying quest.

06:51 <Cepheid> I wasn't sure what Fatalis was doing, so I started running in a circle before I attacked after I realized what was going on.

06:52 <ConfusionRift> I do that a lot when I'm not sure what to do. ._.

07:17 <ConfusionRift> Not yet, and was contemplating starting over. I know, the DLC takes place right after, but still.

07:18 <Schism> I hear you.  Maybe a NewGame+ then instead of starting ALL over?

07:18 <Schism> (With Apollo shouting at you the whole time...)

07:18 <ConfusionRift> Then again, the DLC is part of NG+. :p

07:18 <Cepheid> Another day, another dead Fatalis.

07:18 <Schism> Nah, DLC is its own thing.  Postgame and all.

07:19 <ConfusionRift> I might get to that. Hmm.

07:19 <Schism> Also costs monies, but we expected that.

07:23 <ConfusionRift> The big bad is dead. Rejoice! | (writes on research, and does some calculations) "Yes, it is official." | What is? How skilled of a hunter I am?! | "That, and this species is extinct." | Oh... thanks for the sour note.

07:24 <Cepheid> "Oh, wait, another one has appeared."  "What?"

07:24 <Schism> "Thanks for the sour persimmons, cousin." //Daffy Duck

07:24 <Cepheid> I find it interesting how despite the knowledge that this thing exists, and will attack again..

07:24 <Cepheid> They don't bother to clean up the arena AT ALL.

07:24 <Cepheid> Unless it's like, non-canon that it shows back up or something, and we're just re-enacting our most famous hunt.

07:24 <ConfusionRift> "Ah... miscalculated. THAT is the last one... it looks upset... oh god- RUUUNNNN!!!"

07:25 <Cepheid> Like, the arena is...

07:25 <Schism> I'm a tad more concerned about how, after you capture a wyvern, they start carving pieces off and provide you with a chunk.

07:25 <Cepheid> The Dragonator and the Barrier are closed off, as in the original quest.  Like, why?

07:25 <ConfusionRift> Closed off? Oh, those lazy...

07:25 <Schism> "Yes, we're going to study this dragon, here are its arms and legs." "Study it HOW?!"

07:26 <Cepheid> Schism:  It's implied that there's a parent organization for the Hunters.  Those chunks you get are likely from other hunts where they take their fare share of the monster.

07:26 <Cepheid> It's payment for services rendered.

07:26 <Schism> I know, I know.  But I do feel slightly concerned when I see the dragon sleeping next to the farm, not knowing what they'll do with it from there.

07:26 <Cepheid> The Guild is basically responsible for organizing the hunters, all the quests, and the like.

07:26 <ConfusionRift> That makes sense... but still. Why would they want me to kill a unique specimen, when someone already did it before me? :P

07:27 <Cepheid> It's likely they have a stockpile of parts sitting around, and they just throw some to you as part of the payment.

07:27 <Schism> ConfusionRift, well... I mean, nature never makes anything truly _unique_ on that scale...

07:27 <Schism> Hunter S. Thompson aside.

07:27 <Cepheid> ConfusionRift, do you mind if I spoil Alatreon's backstory a bit?  It'd give some insight into the inner workings of the Guild's mind.

07:28 <Schism> Invasive species, on the other hand, I have absolutely _no_ issues hunting.

07:28 <ConfusionRift> It was hinted that this or Tri wasn't Alatreon's first encounter.

07:28 <Schism> And it's not like we could kill Zorah Magdaros anyway...

07:28 <Cepheid> The guild disavowed all knowledge of Alatreon's existence.  They burned and destroyed all evidence of it.

07:29 <Cepheid> They are so freakishly stupid that they destroyed everything related to it.

07:29 <Schism> I have to ask.  _Why?!_

07:29 <Cepheid> Knowing that, they probably regularly destroy research documents on a regular basis, and they ask us to hunt unique species just so they can re-document it again.

07:29 <Schism> Oh, you just answered.  Freakish stupidity.

07:30 <Cepheid> "Where were those papers on Arzuros I had sitting here the other day?"  "Oh, we burned them."  "Again?  Fine.  Put out a capture quest for one please."

07:30 <Schism> Why, because hunters would go out and try to kill it or something, and get themselves wiped out?  Because documentation gets distributed to military members, then civilians et al?  Because they figure that ignoring something real makes it NOT REAL?!

07:31 <Cepheid> ConfusionRift, fun tidbit.  Adrian, the Excitable A-Lister, is actually the Ace Cadet from MH4U/MHGU.

07:31 <Cepheid> Schism:  It gets worse.

07:31 <ConfusionRift> Well, if it was like back then, there's no such thing as addendum or revision. It would be a full update, especially when it seems like in World, monsters are not acting the same way as before.

07:31 <Cepheid> After our hunt of Alatreon, it's implied by the research commission that the Guild wanted to burn the paperwork AGAIN.

07:31 <Schism> You have to ask, 'to what end'.

07:32 <Cepheid> They don't want to acknowledge it exists.

07:32 <Cepheid> For whatever reason.

07:32 <Cepheid> They would rather go "HAHAHAHA IT DOESN'T EXIST I'M NOT LISTENING I'M NOT LISTENING"  And here's a bit of regular text to get past that stupid capslock filter.

07:32 <ConfusionRift> Probably this whole "omen" behavior, or the problems with "pursuit of knowledge".

07:33 <Cepheid> Meanwhile, I bet the top of the research paperwork for our commission was whether or not Alatreon was edible.  Because the handler asked.

07:33 <Cepheid> Hum.

07:33 <Cepheid> I need 2 Fatalis Evil Eyes, and... 7 Cortexes?  That's it, for the armor?

07:34 <Cepheid> I mean, I need a Rajang Heart, which might be a problem.

07:34 <Schism> And this is when we learn that MH monsters are in fact cognitohazards, and the more people who view them, the more regularly they spawn.

07:34 <ConfusionRift> If you go looking for them, you will eventually find them.

07:34 <Cepheid> What I find interesting is that they'll burn documentation on Alatreon, they'll leave documentation on Fatalis alone.

07:34 <Cepheid> Despite the fact that Fatalis destroyed an ENTIRE COUNTRY IN ONE DAY.

07:35 <ConfusionRift> Not to forget that it was depicted as a major omen of destruction.

07:35 * Cepheid goes to poke Fatalis again.

07:36 <ConfusionRift> It seems to remain within specific roosting areas, so it's not exactly invasive.

07:36 <ConfusionRift> Alatreon, on the other hand, is.

07:37 <Schism> I'd dearly like to know if there's a single work of fiction where the government goes, "Yup, this weapon is completely out of scope for any measure of problem we might encounter, let's destroy it down to the subatomic level and eliminate any documentation save containment procedures which might be helpful in case anyone creates something similar.'

07:38 <ConfusionRift> That has been done I think.

07:38 <Schism> Instead, they go, "Let's keep it.  Just in case we need something which might be able to blow up the sun, you understand."

07:39 <Schism> It probably has been done, but I can't come up with a single instance.

07:41 <ConfusionRift> I vaguely remember something somewhere. This entity that was deemed chaotic and destructive by all measures, that was destroyed, or broken into pieces. And because the one key that was used to destroy it seemed useless at the time, they destroyed it as well.

07:41 <Cepheid> That went about as expected that time.

07:42 <Cepheid> Got me with *YAY*.  Flame blast, another flame blast just as I recover.  Then a third flame blast as I recover *AGAIN*, and I can't stop the recover, so I had no choice but to fail.

07:44 <ConfusionRift> And then there was the case of "we thought we destroyed it, so we deleted everything" situation.

07:54 <Cepheid> Right, I need to play something else.  That last hunt annoyed me 'cause one player was "GIT GUD" and an asshole.

07:54 <Cepheid> Let's see if I can get into CrossCode at all.

07:57 * Finwe noms on Ali..

07:58 <Finwe> Lunchtiem? :3

07:58 <Finwe> In an hour, maybe.

07:58 * Ali ish not food

07:58 <Cepheid> I still find it hard to believe this game was written in JavaScript, of all damned things.

07:59 <Finwe> Ali ish not food / Ali ish cute / If you nom on her tail / it will make her squeak and flail!

07:59 * Ali isn't cute so the haiku fails

08:14 <Cepheid> Mmm.

08:14 <Cepheid> The melee attack is the big one.

08:14 <Cepheid> You have to have the cursor close to Lea to initiate a melee attack.

08:37 <Cepheid> Calling these "puzzles" is an insult to puzzles everywhere.  It doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out basic geometry.

08:38 * ConfusionRift chuckles.

08:39 <ConfusionRift> Yeah, later on they get trickier. Mostly not in the sense of "what am I supposed to do?" and more "that's really what you want me to do?" situation.

08:39 <ConfusionRift> You can also cheese some of the puzzles, but forgot which ones.

08:41 * Dapper_Dappled headtilts. Missed the context of the game.

23:01 <Finwe> Good night, everypony!

23:01 *** Pony_34355 is now known as Bloodrose

23:02 * Finwe curls up on Ali and snoozes.

23:28 <Cepheid> Wifi generally has spottier and spottier reception further from the router you get, and if there are things like concrete walls, or walls with metal studs build into them in between.

23:29 <Cepheid> A good way to test if this is what's causing the trouble is to ping a known website, and look for packet loss.

23:30 <Sunrise_Flare> the thing is this only happens with IRC

23:30 <Sunrise_Flare> and only when I'm on SSL

23:31 <Sunrise_Flare> I can play league of legends perfectly fine (Aside from it hard locking my computer due to a memory overclocking failure apparently)

23:33 <Cepheid> Hum, I'm getting better at fighting Fatalis.  Unlike Alatreon, it doesn't cause that massive adrenaline rush from the feeling that I need to hurry up.

23:34 <Sunrise_Flare> did you know

23:34 <Sunrise_Flare> you can block fatalis' breath attack with the lance shield

23:34 <Sunrise_Flare> it can even split the beam and protect people behind you

23:39 <Cepheid> The wide-arc breath?

23:42 <Sunrise_Flare> I can't remember which move exactly

23:42 <Sunrise_Flare> I think it might have to be a fire lance too

23:42 *** Joins: Sokolas_ (Sokolas_@Pony-8ct9nd.bb.netbynet.ru)

23:44 *** Quits: Sokolas_ (Sokolas_@Pony-8ct9nd.bb.netbynet.ru) (Quit: )

23:51 <Cepheid> Yeah, it's the wide breath attack.

23:51 <Cepheid> It can be blocked even by SnS shield.

23:51 <Cepheid> I just tried it.  It works.

23:51 <Cepheid> That said, fireballs?  Can't block those.

23:55 <Cepheid> Yeah, all fireballs require Guard Up

23:57 <Cepheid> Apparently, it's Zentai Blaze(Whole Blaze, the novas) do 500 damage.

23:57 <Cepheid> Oh, it's "Full Power Blaze"

23:57 <Cepheid> It's unblockable, does 500 damage.  Meanwhile, it's weakened blaze is blockable, does 250 damage.

23:58 <Cepheid> Er, 150 damage*
