Absorb Android's and The Auto Update System

Problems and Ideas
1

Since absorb androids can’t self train or meditate to gain powerlevel, they aren’t able to participate in the auto train/meditate system.

If anyone has any ideas on what they could do instead, please post them.

Last night I thought up the idea that they could have some sort of repair system. Right now absorb androids don’t naturally heal over time like all of the other races do. I was thinking something along the lines of they would need to log in to click “Self Repair” once every 12 hours for 3 days straight without getting in a fight (or any other big physical activity like sparring) and they would heal to full. Or some variation of that - maybe every click they heal 15% instead of having to wait the full 3 days to fully heal.

Any input on my idea or different ideas are welcome, I’d love to add something for absorb androids to do :slight_smile:

It could also be an item they start with that has X amount of uses so that they have to do a quest or purchase more charges. That way it’s more involved in the actual gameplay.

I’ll bite. :rofl:

While I hate that the auto-update system focuses so much on powerlevel, here we are.

I think Absorb Android’s ‘auto-update’ ability should focus on something other than power level. I’ve kicked around the idea of improving their Signature move over time, and a different concept of manufacturing items. Not really a fan of either.

Character Page ‘Reprogramming’
Click to work on existing programming, focusing on Signature moves, to achieve an increase in your character signature move. Only available once your Level 1 Signature move is learned & attained. After 90 attempts, your character will gain an increase in Level of Signature move. Every time your character does a “Reprogramming” it carries a critical chance of ‘inspiration’, increasing the level automatically. (the number 90 sounds high, but when you consider 3 times daily, you are talking about a month’s timeline of consistancy.)

Character Page: ‘Item Manufacturing’
Sacrifice various items within your characters possession, for a new item at random value. Destroys sacrificed items. Example: Materials used; Brass Knuckles(100 zenni) and Saiyan Sword (1000 zenni). A random item, up to 1100 zenni value will be created: results; You got Medium Saiyan Armor.

:sleeping: Not a fan of either function… but you get the idea.

Here is a powerlevel concept, though I’m still not a fan of the character page interactions being so powerlevel focused:

Character Page: “Andriod Self Repair”.
Only available if Character has in their possession certain repair tools. You must acquire them throughout gameplay, as they are not given at character creation. Once acquired, you may click ‘self repair’ once every 72hrs. Restores current power level by 20%, has a chance to increase powerlevel by 1% as a critical ‘inspiration’.

Side note: If Andriod Self Repair is implemented, I’d say this is reason enough to add ‘repair tools’ to the pm.com items page.

An method of repairing items, like armors, would be cool; similar to the Andriod Self Repair mechanic.

I like the idea of something completely different for a race’s auto mechanic. I’m still leaning towards the repair/heal mechanic though. Mostly because of balance, but I’m not against adding your other ideas too.

I wouldn’t be opposed to the idea of giving everyone their own races a flavor of “Reprogramming” for their Signature Move.

Makes it more personal to the individual character. Gives a player another option other than train. “What do you value more right now? PL or Technique?”

Yeah this is definitely something I want to keep in mind for the future. I would love to expand the system to give players more to do between email updates.
