Skill Six - First Tier AD Skills
Dec. 1st, 2011 02:45 pmOkay, I am TOO LAZY to figure out which of these Dawn would actually have access to based on his stats. However it doesn't really matter because a bunch don't apply because he is either not a caster, or this isn't really an RPG.
What is really AMOUNTS TO is he is overall more efficient in battle: he blocks more damage, takes less, does more, is more agile, less likely to be staggered or have his guard broken, and recovers faster from anything that gets him off guard. He combos much more efficiently and can really wail on someone now.
Abilities pertaining to artes still don't work because he doesn't have those back yet.

Fourth Skill - Minigames
Jul. 24th, 2011 11:01 pmThis skill is Luke's debateably illogical ability to be good at tests of logic or skill you would generally figure are beyond him. It does not make him SMARTER ACROSS THE BOARD, but if you put him in a room and make him move around boxes in a complicated manner? He is SET. This also applies to dungeon-traversing problem solving. So stuff like playing notes in a particular order to open doors, so on and so fourth. It will also help his problem solving skills when dealing with QUESTS. Aaannd it may pop up in a few totally random places for hilarity.
Third Skill - Level Appropriate Stats
Jul. 1st, 2011 12:16 amOkay! At the end of my first play through of ToA, here were Luke's stats:
Lvl: 73
HP: 5138
TP: 390
Physical Attack: 1361
Physical Defense: 582
Fonic Attack: 388
Fonic Defense: 406
Agility: 481
Enhancement: 48
Luck: 83
Now, obviously! Most of this is well above human, so it will be power capped. However, it does mean he is physically at the power cap limit in just about every area. However, I will be keeping his stats relative to each other. So he is not suddenly as good at Fonic Attacks as Jade just because they are both capped by the power limit. His PRIMARY STRENGTHS are definitely in Physical Attack and Defense, with a butt load of hitpoints and okay agility. He has SOME PRETTY GOOD magic/magic defense but other RPG characters or characters whose THING is to be really good at magic will still definitely be better.
However, this does mean that he won't really have a problem with individual monsters (in groups they will still be an issue).
Notice that! ToA lacks a strength category. While Luke is definitely stronger than most people, he isn't 'RPG strong', because ToA doesn't really work that way. He can't punch holes in the ground (unless it's part of a Strike Arte, which he needs fonons for), or lift cars over his head. He is on the muscly side and can do what muscly people can, but he doesn't have super strength even with his crazy RPG stats.
HE CAN HOWEVER run up trees and do wall flips and and bounce around between tree branches and jump like eight feet straight up and shit like that tho.

Second Skill - Albert Style Sword Artes
Apr. 30th, 2011 11:37 amBasically, Luke fights in the Albert Style. There are no actual artes included in this. Much like how Luke starts the game and knows how to fight, but has to acquire his arts separately, his Strike Artes in another skill. However, he will be able to do basic sword fighting now! Which is pretty much everything he can do in the game without pressing circle.
Note that he is still, statwise, about level 10. So the local monsters will still be a hassle for him, as will fighting anyone on who isn't equally depowered. But his SKILL in swordfighting is pretty high.

First Skill - Cooking
Mar. 29th, 2011 03:24 amThis is basically all you need to know.
But just to use MORE WORDS, Luke's cooking is ENTIRELY EDIBLE! It does not taste bad and it will not make you ill! It is probably bland and uncreative and periodically just a bit ODD, but it is still considerably better than "throw all the meat into a pot and boil it" which is what Ruby has been doing so far.
Oh right, this also includes all of the recipes available in Tales of the Abyss, which I will look up later, and general knowledge about food products and a few basic do's and don't's of cooking.
