Chapter 407 - Big Pineapple’s S-Grade Talent
Chapter 407: Big Pineapple’s S-Grade Talent
“A Tyrant is not as weak as these people on the forum expect. Not only is it worse than Commander monsters of the same Level, but it is also even more powerful in combat power. It not only has rad strength and 100% HP recovery ability, but also has a very high attack power. Although it only uses physical attacks, even a Heavy Armored Warrior with good equipment using a shield definitely would not be able to hold for long.” At the square of the abandoned military base, Feng Luo, with a serious expression, gave Big Pineapple a theory of the fact that one should never underestimate a Tyrant.
The mission this time was to go into Silvermoon City and save someone, it was very likely to encounter a Tyrant. If Big Pineapple really thought that it would be so easy to face a Tyrant, then even if he had astounding defense power, he would also possibly suffer great loss.
“As for the so-called weakness analyzed by these people on the forum, well…” Feng Luo smiled, not continuing with the second part of his speech.
“I see, Tyrants are actually very difficult to take down…” Big Pineapple revealed a tinge of disappointment, but right after, he seemed to have thought of something as his eyes rolled around before asking Feng Luo. “But Old Feng, you said that this Tyrant only has physical attacks?”
“That’s right, it has no Energy attack skills.” Feng Luo nodded. Most Commander monsters belonged to a single unit creature or an Energy-type creature, only a minority possessed both attack methods.
“Then if I were able to hold against its attacks, are you able to make use of the sniper rifle’s long-range attack and finish it like previously facing the Hunter T-750 in the killing game?” Big Pineapple asked.
Feng Luo froze slightly, then suddenly recalled, with Big Pineapple’s rad defense power, holding against a non-mutant Tyrant’s attacks head-on was really possible. If under the situation without awakening one’s Force, who else in War would be able to take on a Tyrant head-on? Feng Luo felt that among the players he knew, there was really only Big Pineapple, as his Talent was likely to be S-Grade.
“Hey! Old Feng, you should’ve already guessed my Talent type.” Big Pineapple said with a smile that was very wretched and self-satisfying,
“Should be a defense-type Talent, and the Grade must definitely be pretty high. If not an A-Grade, it’d be an S-Grade. The chance of an S-Grade should be exceeding 80%.” Feng Luo had a guess on Big Pineapple’s Talent long ago, hence gave a confident reply.
“F*ck, seeing how there’s completely no shock whatsoever on your face…I know that my guess is correct, your Talent is definitely also an S-Grade attack-type Talent.” Big Pineapple sounded a little bored.
Clearly, Feng Luo’s expression did not reveal any shock was unable to give him the satisfaction of finding a triumph card in which he was most self-satisfied with to reveal to others.
“My Talent is called Heavy Armor; it can raise the defense coefficient Grade of the equipment on me by an entire level.” For the first time, Big Pineapple said out the complete attributes of his own Talent in front of Feng Luo.
“Heavy Armor Talent, raises equipment defense coefficient by an entire level.” Feng Luo could not suppress his shock. Now he understood why Big Pineapple was so rad in defense.
Other than the defense power attribute, players’ defense equipment also had the defense coefficient attribute, the correspondent of the attack coefficient of attack equipment.
If the attack coefficient was lower than the defense coefficient by an entire level (referring to high Grades like B and C, and not lower Grades like B- and C+); for example, say a dagger of attack coefficient D was sliced on a C Grade chest armor, in comparison to a chest armor with the same defense power coefficient but with a D Grade defense coefficient, it would typically suffer around 50% the damage of the latter.
Of course, this was an approximated calculation concluded by players.
In actuality, the difference between the coefficients of defense and attack powers was much more complex, as players’ normal attacks had differences in strength, speed, angle, distance attenuation, and others; whereas skill attacks also had the effect of enhancing or reducing destruction, defense coefficient.
Adding on to all sorts of active and passive defense skills of the Heavy Armored Warrior profession, the damage reduction attainable by this Talent of Big Pineapple’s was even higher than 50%.
Besides, Big Pineapple’s equipment now was clearly very decent. After auctioning off the Rare equipment earned from the killing game last time, Big Pineapple had similarly enjoyed rich returns.
Other than accessories, the equipment on him as of today clearly should be full-set Rare equipment; even though not considered quality, they were still much better than normal Heavy Armored Warrior equipment, plus the enhancement of this Heavy Armor Talent.
To hold against a Tyrant’s short-period attacks was not considered to be too difficult. However, Big Pineapple’s mindset was still a little too simplistic.
Although Tyrants’ brains were not very useful, they were still not the kind of AI monsters which vengeance would be easily triggered.
Even if he was able to hold the damage, it was still impossible for a Heavy Armored Warrior to maintain the vengeance, the Tyrant would very likely jump straight over him and attack Feng Luo at the back.
With the powerful leaping ability of Tyrants, even if one were to shoot at one from more than 100 meters away, even long-range professions would not have much time to react.
Of course, to talk about such a situation, Feng Luo was not really afraid.
The day before, relying on Ghost Weep’s combo skill of the Force Skill and Life Protozoa, under the control of 24K, one would even be able to triumph over a Tyrant plus a horde of zombies.
Today, although the Life Protozoa had fallen to Level 1 and the Symbiotic Stats enhancement had reduced, he had earned a new third Force Skill Master Martial Arts, he would definitely have had some resistance against a Tyrant. Especially with the “includes Force damage effect to a definite extent” statement in the description of this Master Martial Arts.
After Feng Luo had carefully looked at this attribute, the more he felt a little excited to test out the power of this Force Skill after it was strengthened. At the same time, he understood Big Pineapple’s mindset.
The attractiveness of the Permanent Enhancement Potion was much higher than typical Rare equipment, as the exorbitant price of it from the Huan Yu Company auction half a month ago had made many players essentially put it on the likes of Legendary equipment.
Big Pineapple’s character had always been one to be a little money-faced, it would be strange for him not to be lured in by these things that were able to fetch money.
As such, he clearly wanted to kill five Tyrants on this mission to accumulate the Authorizations to exchange for the T-Virus Permanent Enhancement Potion; or if his luck was good, it might even be produced just in the process of killing a few Tyrants.
As the Heavy Armored Warrior that he was, it was impossible for him to take a Tyrant on solo even with a second profession, he would have a possibility to achieve this only at least with the partnership of Feng Luo.
But this time, it was completely impossible for Feng Luo to place his goal on killing Tyrants or earning points.
During the flight, he was finally clear about the identity of the mission target, that little girl known as Sulli Parkins.
Although she was a little different in age from the role in the Biohazard Crisis game on Earth, the plots in War were not completely the same as on Earth.
Feng Luo felt that there was a huge possibility that this little girl was the daughter of the William Parkins who had invented the G-Virus.
“The G-Virus!”
To Feng Luo, such a basic virus as the T-Virus without mutation was already not much of a use.
But the G-Virus is more powerful and very likely an Intermediate virus that has an important significance.
He was now still shouldering the Epic-Level mission of helping Lin complete the “W (Perfect) Virus.” The G-Virus as a famous and important virus in the Biohazard Crisis game should be of some help to this mission.
An Epic-Level mission.
Not mentioning any others, just looking at this scene of the Biohazard Crisis plot, the position of an Epic-Level mission could be estimated.
This mission of saving the little girl to him was much more important than killing Tyrants to exchange for the T-Virus Enhancement Potion.
