That's all now -Updated-

CONGRATULES

I've added the AP-buyables auto-assigned to the Grabbyfest crew to the list of AP-buyables in the Rules thread, albeit separated. Let me know if you don't want them to be initially-buyable, and I'll remove them- they look fairly okay as-is, though, with the more-potent ones being expensive (or outright unreachable) or requiring specific PC-types.

[Lord Gadigan]

Assigning them as broadly-buyable is good. Thank you!

[Lord Gadigan]

Here is the big weapon subtype reorganization:

Derivative Subtypes are now a thing. Presently, they are only in Weapons, although I expect to expand them to Armor and Accessories. They likely aren't going to Spells, Elements, Entities, or Transformations at this time, although that could theoretically eventually change. Half of the number of abilities a character possesses in a base subtype apply towards all of its derivative nonbase subtypes for prerequisite purposes. Half of the number of abilities a character possesses in each derivative subtype apply towards all its base subtype for prerequisite purposes. These properties are not transitive, and they do not double-up. This means that one derivative subtype's abilities don't count a quarter of the way toward other derivative subtypes of the same base subtype. Additionally, it means that if a character has an ability that unifies two subtypes for prerequisite purposes, neither of them benefits from the derivative subtype benefit on top of that. Items with derivative subtypes also count as being the subtype they are derivative of in addition to their own subtype (although some abilities may change this for PCs who want to get the base subtypes out of their actions/calculations).

If a character currently has classname in a formerly-base-weapon subtype that became nonbase, that character gets:

Classical Training in Standard Combat Utilizing the <Weapon Subtype>- (Passive Ability, <Classname>) Possessor may treat <Weapon Subtype> as a Base Weapon subtype
Not Available

After a fair bit of work (and some help from chat), the new weapon subtype organization is ready.

There are now no non-Imaginary T2 weapons. There will be an ability gated behind Adept that can serve to increase any T1 nonbase weapon to T2. Once someone has at least one corresponding nonbase weapon to T2, that unlocks the ability to also bring the base weapon to T2 by buying a similar ability.

If a character currently has an ability in a T2 subtype, that character gets:

Peerless Understanding of the True Power of the <Weapon Subtype>- (Passive Ability, <Classname>) Possessor treats <Weapon Subtype> as a Tier 2 Weapon subtype. Other entities treat instances of <Weapon Subtype> wielded by possessor as a Tier 2 Weapon subtype.
Requires: Adept <Weapon Subtype> Wielding<, If a Base weapon, also 'Peerless Understanding of the True Power of the <Any Weapon Subtype Derivative of this Weapon Subtype>'
Cost: 30,000,000 Gold, 30 Weeks

Class entry requirements are not currently changing. If you want to get something that moved from base to nonbase, I encourage you to add it to your training queue before new costs are up. Characters who have it in-queue can keep it in at the old cost/prereqs.

More weapon subtypes are still potentially appearing in the future, given the BA's continual expansion in content, but for now, I am going with the following weapon list/categorization.

Minor Issues
Some of those derivative classes share a name with an already-existing ability. I recommend having the already-existing ability become <Name> (2) so we don't end up with an entire tree going the way of being appended with (2).

Clown
Reliquarian
Hypnotist
Rancher
Judge

Larger Issues

Historian is mentioned as a prerequisite for some abilities in the shop already, although this may have been intended to be 'Resonant Historian', the Memory class.

Basic Instrument of Retribution Knowledge- (Passive Ability, Other: Instrument of Retribution) Possessor's Aisurii pets and summons gain +100 HP, +100 MP, +10 to damage dealt, and +10 to all stats
Requires: Champion of the Upper Realms, Monk, Warrior, (Summoner of Beasts Unheard OR Temporal Primarch OR Historian)
Cost: 5,000,000 Gold, 30 Weeks

Basic Precursor Knowledge- (Passive Ability, Other: Precursor) Possessor's Ancient pets and summons gain +100 HP, +100 MP, +10 to damage dealt, and +10 to all stats
Requires: Theoretical Mage-Scientist, Historian, Archmage of the Ancients
Cost: 60,000,000 Gold, 30 Weeks

Explorer is already a classname for the Edgelander subtype. Alternative suggestion for the Machete class: Trailblazer.

Parasite already exists as the classname for the Needle weapon subtype, although Needle's new classname is Acupuncturist. However, it's possible that current Needles are supposed to be Syringes instead. Tolva currently has as much of the Parasite tree as exists, due to the Abominable Murmur's Needle aspect. There may need to be some subtype-reallocation happening with those abilities and extant Needles.

Calculator is mentioned as the classname for both Catastrophe Mind and Remote. Alternative suggestion for the Catastrophe Mind or Remote class: Manipulator. (Alternative suggestion for Remote via Not-Dave: Rigger)

Captain is already the classname for the Vessel transformation-subtype. Alternative suggestion for the Buckler class: Rodelero. (It's a historic descriptor for warriors that used bucklers prominently)

Warden is already the classname for Binder Magic. Alternative suggestion for the Geostave class: Lodestone-Bearer.

Fisherman is already the classname for Fish weapons. Alternative suggestion for the Hookrod class: Angler.


We may want to alter new weapons going forward (or suddenly-becoming-derivative weapons) into having the form (Weapon, Type: Derivative), for example Book: Card. This may need to extend to derivatives becoming separate-but-linked subtrees of their overarching subtype, for example Scholar: Card Mystic.

That's an awful lot of work, though, so it may be best just to make a note in the subtype-heading instead, for example:
~Card (Derivative of Book)~
~Card Mystic (Card) (Derivative of Scholar)~

Going through the entire Shop to alter existing Weapons is likely going to be too much work, save for those that explicitly have the derivative subtype's name in their... well, name. Uniques and Artifact Aspects are probably doable, though.

[Lord Gadigan]

New abilities approved.

[Lord Gadigan]

We may want to alter new weapons going forward (or suddenly-becoming-derivative weapons) into having the form (Weapon, Type: Derivative), for example Book: Card.

This I support.

This may need to extend to derivatives becoming separate-but-linked subtrees of their overarching subtype, for example Scholar: Card Mystic.

That's an awful lot of work, though, so it may be best just to make a note in the subtype-heading instead, for example:
~Card (Derivative of Book)~
~Card Mystic (Card) (Derivative of Scholar)~

I don't have a strong opinion on this at the moment and am open to mod ideas on what would be easier / preferred.

Going through the entire Shop to alter existing Weapons is likely going to be too much work, save for those that explicitly have the derivative subtype's name in their... well, name. Uniques and Artifact Aspects are probably doable, though.

Please don't change existing items at the moment. The BA is set up in such a way that a lot of individual items can be relics of times and places when the cosmos was different. Some of the new subtypes are potentially relegated to specific worlds/regions, and there are items that even have the words in their names that won't be the new subtypes (even though a lot of new items will). Essentially, while some items may get a revamp in the future, this isn't pressing and there are currently intended to be outliers.

[Lord Gadigan]

Some of those derivative classes share a name with an already-existing ability. I recommend having the already-existing ability become <Name> (2) so we don't end up with an entire tree going the way of being appended with (2).

Abilities in question:
Preacher
Basic Poisoner Training (as Blowgun is going to need that)
Clown
Reliquarian
Hypnotist
Rancher
Judge
Gourmand
Tactician
Pirate
Knight
Teacher
Shepherd
Gardener
Fencer
Samurai
Juggler
Painter
Carpenter
Tinker
Gravedigger

Yeah, that works. Thank you. I considered trying to rename the classes, but there's several, good class-name words are getting progressively thinner on the ground, and this seems straightforward.

[Lord Gadigan]

Historian is mentioned as a prerequisite for some abilities in the shop already, although this may have been intended to be 'Resonant Historian', the Memory class.

Basic Instrument of Retribution Knowledge- (Passive Ability, Other: Instrument of Retribution) Possessor's Aisurii pets and summons gain +100 HP, +100 MP, +10 to damage dealt, and +10 to all stats
Requires: Champion of the Upper Realms, Monk, Warrior, (Summoner of Beasts Unheard OR Temporal Primarch OR Historian)
Cost: 5,000,000 Gold, 30 Weeks

Basic Precursor Knowledge- (Passive Ability, Other: Precursor) Possessor's Ancient pets and summons gain +100 HP, +100 MP, +10 to damage dealt, and +10 to all stats
Requires: Theoretical Mage-Scientist, Historian, Archmage of the Ancients
Cost: 60,000,000 Gold, 30 Weeks

This was meant to be a Scholar ability named Historian that potentially never got made/released.

Keep it Historian, please. It will use the new class.

[Lord Gadigan]

Explorer is already a classname for the Edgelander subtype. Alternative suggestion for the Machete class: Trailblazer.

Approved. Almost want to rename the Edgelander class, but we'll go with that.

Parasite already exists as the classname for the Needle weapon subtype, although Needle's new classname is Acupuncturist. However, it's possible that current Needles are supposed to be Syringes instead. Tolva currently has as much of the Parasite tree as exists, due to the Abominable Murmur's Needle aspect. There may need to be some subtype-reallocation happening with those abilities and extant Needles.

This got addressed in chat at some point well in advance of the actual post here, but the information doesn't seem to have carried forward. The weapon previously named 'Needle' is now named 'Syringe', as you suspected it might be.

Calculator is mentioned as the classname for both Catastrophe Mind and Remote. Alternative suggestion for the Catastrophe Mind or Remote class: Manipulator. (Alternative suggestion for Remote via Not-Dave: Rigger)

Manipulator for Calculator class, please.
(Remote -Aeromage)

Captain is already the classname for the Vessel transformation-subtype. Alternative suggestion for the Buckler class: Rodelero. (It's a historic descriptor for warriors that used bucklers prominently)

Sounds good. Let's go with that.

Warden is already the classname for Binder Magic. Alternative suggestion for the Geostave class: Lodestone-Bearer.

That sounds too slow-focused and negative-aura-focused compared to what I want. Let's go Landkeeper on the new one.

Fisherman is already the classname for Fish weapons. Alternative suggestion for the Hookrod class: Angler.

Approved.

[Lord Gadigan]

Thank you for reviewing and updating this stuff!

[Aeromage]

[17:38]Gadigan: It was proposed that I leave this open for a short bit to let people get things
[17:39]Gadigan: I'll give people a week on this stuff. Possibly longer on actual prereq changes
[17:39]Caelzeph: Will that also extend to queued-up buys?
[17:40]Gadigan: If stuff gets into queue before I redo the prereqs on this stuff, it's getting into queue and being left alone unless the queue gets revised / cancelled
[17:41]Gadigan: Getting the count-as-T1 / count-as-T2 does not extend to queues
[17:41]Gadigan: Those were meant for characters already invested in something whose build was being impacted
[17:41]Gadigan: Not people who theoretically wanted to expand into things but don't have the spheres/resources for it
[17:42]Gadigan: If someone has had one in queue already for a while, talk to me about it

In other words, we've got until the 18th to get those auto-buys in to qualify for the Classical/Peerless abilities!

[The Nottest of Daves]

[21:20]Gadigan: New ruling (can be posted): If an existing PC has selected something that became a derivative subtype as a core subtype or wellspring/inundation subtype or associated subtype or something similar, it also gets the base. This also applies to the auto-pick lists for Detective and stuff in case anything odd got into them
[21:20]Gadigan: This only applies to previous and automatic selections for now, not new ones

[Lord Gadigan]

Scepter on the new one, please.

[21:48]Ordo Hereticus: Quick question:
Darkspawn Attract Cults- (World Law, Herald of Lunacy) Darkspawn may, at the start of each round, summon up to 20 Humans that are 5 or more Levels lower and fightable for drops on the Enemy List
Requires: Herald of Lunacy, Delver of the Forbidden, Priest, Warlock, Ritualist
Additional Requirement: Task: Set up cults of at least 30 members (at least one of whom must be unique in each) for 5 unique or notable-for-their-area Darkspawn
Cost: 5,000,000 Gold, 4 Weeks

Does Lurky setting up a cult for himself count as one of the required cults for this task?
[21:50]Gadigan: Interesting. Wasn't entirely intended, but still fits the general flavor of something a unique Darkspawn would do and doesn't just entirely get around the task, so I'll allow that. Generally, though (note this when posting the approval), you can't quest for yourself to get rewards.

[Lord Gadigan]

A Radio Motorcyclist is not a BA member and is different from a BA member as follows:
* A Radio Motorcyclist is Bullfighting-Adjacent.
* A Radio Motorcyclist may not perform absorbs.
* A Radio Motorcyclist may not perform combos.
* A Radio Motorcyclist begins with 60 distributable base stat points.
* Radio Motorcyclists do not get bonus-points to assign on level-up.
* A Radio Motorcyclist may be Earth, Air, Fire, Water, Light, Darkness, Physical, Psychic, Magic, Technology, Electrical, Energy, Acid, Ice, War, Hope, Moon, Sun, Metal, Wood, Sonic, Tacky, Spatial, Time, Astral, Aether, Anime, Business, Magisparkly, Strange, Taxi, Terrorism, or Thermo element.
* A Radio Motorcyclist may be a Human, Fae, Humanoid, Robot, Edgelander, Mutant, Cousin, or Foreigner.
* A Radio Motorcyclist may not participate in Event Matches.
* A Radio Motorcyclist may not participate in Mini Quests.
* A Radio Motorcyclist may not participate in Event Matches, excluding the Boss Rush and Alternative Boss Rush.
* A Radio Motorcyclist does not obtain starting Warehouse Tickets but may turn them in if it acquires them somehow.
* A Radio Motorcyclist possesses a special Transformation called a Magellan's Vessel - it is also referred to as a Radio Motorcycle; it generally responds to effects as a Mandate Magellan's Magellan's Vessel would, but has some mechanical differences as outlined here. The Magellan's Vessel may be named by its controlling Magellan, but additionally counts as possessing the name 'Radio Motorcycle: <Controlling Radio Motorcyclist's Name>'. It is a Vehicle & Machine. It is not an item, cannot be destroyed as though it were an item, cannot be stolen, and cannot be removed from threads by effects that remove items from threads. Effects that would normally detransform a transformed individual, excluding the death of the transformation, do not detransform a Radio Motorcyclist transformed into its Magellan's Vessel unless coming from an entity that is 20 or more Levels greater than the Radio Motorcyclist. Unlike most transformations, the Magellan's Vessel has its own base stat values and calculates its stats using them as though it were a PC. A Radio Motorcyclist's Magellan's Vessel, being weaker by base than a Mandate Magellan's, begins with 50 distributable base stat points; it cannot put more than 10 of them into MIN or SPI, but it adds half its controlling Radio Motorcyclist's base MIN and base SPI to its corresponding base stats (rounding up).
* A Radio Motorcyclist gains a special track in the Ability Shop that may be used to purchase abilities for its Magellan's Vessel. The Vessel may use its controlling Magellan's abilities for prerequisite purposes but may itself only purchase Robot Traits, Machine Traits, Clockwork Traits, and abilities that have one of the aforementioned abilities as a prerequisite (or as a prior mandatory element somewhere earlier in a prerequisite tree). This means that this track cannot be used to initially purchase things for the above until the controlling Radio Motorcyclist gets the abilities that are the prerequisites for one of the above traits. A Radio Motorcyclist's Magellan's Vessel, unlike a Mandate Magellan's, may also purchase Musician and Bard abilities. The Radio Motorcyclist's vessel is slow to gain abilities, though, and requires twice as many Weeks in the Ability Shop to obtain them as a normal PC would.
* A Megellan's Vessel possesses special slots called Supersystem Slots. A standard Radio Motorcyclist's is weaker than a standard Mandate Magellan's, and by default, it begins with slots for 1 Frame, 1 Drive, 1 Reactor, 1 Field-Emitter, 1 Plating, 1 Paintjob, 1 Ordnance, 1 Module, 1 Program, and 1 Special Cargo.
* Supersystems may be purchased using a Magellan's Vessel's ability track or its controlling Magellan's tracks or may be acquired through other means. Some have special requirements for purchase. Once purchased, they may be installed at any time their controller could equip non-specific carried items and may be uninstalled at any time their controller could unequip non-specific equipped items. All owned Supersystems are always considered installable if uninstalled unless otherwise specified; they are not items and do not have to be carried in an inventory.
* A Radio Motorcyclist must begin all non-RP-thread threads and battles transformed into its Magellan's Vessel if able.
* If a Radio Motorcyclist who is transformed into its Magellan's Vessel would be killed in the transformation, it, as an effect that stops the checking of end-of-battle-conditions by sides without members who are Level 100 or greater until resolved, is given the option of performing an Emergency Ejection, and, if it chooses to do so (being able to do so a max of once per thread), detransforms from the dead transformation - effects that would control a Mandate Magellan's decision may only control its decision if they could control it both in and out of the dying transformation.
* A Radio Motorcyclist may, by default, have one Soundtrack set at a time. At Levels 20, 40, 60, and 80, it may choose to have an additional Soundtrack set as part of a Mixtape Mashup.
* A Radio Motorcyclist may change any of its Soundtracks at the start of battle, at the start of a round, when it changes Stances, or when it performs a 'Change Stance' action (even if no Stance is changed as part of that action).
* A Radio Motorcyclist's Soundtracks take precedence in terms of Soundtrack-tie-determination over non-Radio-Motorcyclists once Level-band and ability-Tier are accounted for.
* A Radio Motorcyclist gains 2 bonus weeks per month that may be spent on Bard, Musician, Noise Master, Driver, Mechanist, Gunner, Gunslinger, and/or Mech Jockey abilities.
* A Radio Motorcyclist obtains an (its Level x5)% multiplier to its turn-order-determining stat sum for turn-order-determining purposes.
* A Radio Motorcyclist may initially only equip Instrument and Gun weapons. If a Radio Motorcyclist reaches Adept-Tier in another weapon-based class, it may equip the corresponding weapons, but halves all stat bonuses and attack bonuses provided by them.
* Radio Motorcyclists do not require Seal Pieces to break Level caps. Instead, they must possess given numbers of Soundtracks and Supersystems, as per the following chart:
Level 20- 1 Frame, 1 Drive, 1 Reactor, 1 Field-Emitter, 1 Plating, 1 Paintjob, 1 Ordnance, 1 Module, 1 Program, 1 Special Cargo, and 40 Soundtracks.
Level 40- 2 Frames, 2 Drives, 2 Reactors, 2 Field-Emitters, 2 Platings, 2 Paintjobs, 2 Ordnance, 2 Modules, 2 Programs, 2 Special Cargo, and 200 Soundtracks.
Level 60- 4 Frames, 4 Drives, 4 Reactors, 4 Field-Emitters, 4 Platings, 4 Paintjobs, 4 Ordnance, 4 Modules, 4 Programs, 4 Special Cargo, and 500 Soundtracks.
Level 80- 8 Frames, 8 Drives, 8 Reactors, 8 Field-Emitters, 8 Platings, 8 Paintjobs, 8 Ordnance, 8 Modules, 8 Programs, 8 Special Cargo, and 2,500 Soundtracks.
* Radio Motorcyclists initially think they are going to respawn at the Bullfighting Palace but respawn at the Battle Arena or One City instead (chosen at the time of respawn); they, unlike Bullfighters, get used to this.

Soundtrack rules:
* Only one individual's Soundtracks may take effect at once in a battlespace unless otherwise noted. If multiple individuals have Soundtracks active at a time, the highest-Level-band individual's soundtrack takes precedence (i.e. 1-19, 20-39, etc.). If that does not resolve the tie, the individual with the highest Tier ability across all of Bard, Dancer, Musician, and Noise Master takes precedence. If this does not resolve the tie, precedence order between individuals is determined randomly on a per-round basis, with a new precedence order being determined at the start of the next round and Soundtracks themselves not being able to influence this determination unless they specifically state that they do. This determination is made separately on a per-battlespace basis.
