Clearly you've never played a Rogue in Dn D as they hit hard and fast but don't take hits.

Granted that's more Blake, but I have a hard time seeing Weiss as a wizard when she relies on melee and speed alot of the time vs dust attacks.

"or well Yang until she went up against Neo or Adam. "

Yang can hit things, is just Neo use all her point in dogingtongue

"Once she gets a swiss army robot arm and goes ss2 she will be again "

And she will lost the other arm unless there is somthing new she can bring aside of puching stuff

also is clear in remanet there isnt wizard clas except the maidens and Ozpin, who is clearly the DM of the game

wild mass guessNeo is like Sans in that she is incredibly powerful yet goes down in one hitwild mass guess

wild mass guessInstead of a beast mode how about having Blake have a "Jack the Ripper" persona a la Raiden that can only be defused by Yangwild mass guess

[up]x3 You're underplaying how Rogues have higher HP progression than Wizards/Sorcerers in Pathfinder and I believe Dn D. They don't die that fast.

I see her becoming more aggressive which reaches its peak when she beats Mercury to near death and only stops when she acciedently lashes out against Ruby and Blake

Expect the opposite. Yang being overly cautious emotionless and cold since being her firey self ended up getting herself wounded. Eventually she's able to regain her passion but controls it now instead of letting it control her. Thus she burned too hot, and then won't burn enough, before finally getting balance.

Or she learns Clear mirror still water.

And that will be the moment when Yang fully forgives Blake. She's been gradually rebuilding their bond but this is the moment she realizes they need each other. Of course they won't become an official couple right away. That should come one or 2 volumes later. I want the ship to be a slow burn(ughhhh).

Singing or performing in combat is the important part, and she lacks it. Besides, Bards aren't really known for coming from the upper class.
There's non-musical and non-performing variants of Bards, they're exactly called Bards, but they have the same abilities.

And that second part is just RP fluff in all honesty.

You're underplaying how Rogues have higher HP progression than Wizards/Sorcerers in Pathfinder and I believe DnD. They don't die that fast.
Ooooh, a d6 or d8 (rogue) instead of a d4 (Wizard/Sorcerer). So much tankier.

Honestly, in D&D/Pathfinder Weiss would be best depicted as an Arcane Duelist Bard.

If Yang turns to the dark side or gets tempted by Cinder/Salem to betray humanity considering what has happened and all the fucks up Ozpin and crew have done. I could see Yang and Ruby's relationship becoming an twist on Dante and Vergil's relationship from DMC

cinder might attempt to recruit her and she might consider it but will turn down the offer forcing them to attempt brainwashing her. they almost suceed but blake and ruby are able to snap her out of it.

I hope we get a scene of Blake snuggling up next to yang

[up][up]Meh, it made not sense for Yang become evil since the other team have the person who cut their hand and the one who kill Phyrra....

Now I can imagine her being more reckelss and agresive after that and just sorta exploding with everyone around: with Ozpin for use them, with Orow for being a shitty uncle and being in leauge with him instead of his own family, Blake for running away after all they have done(I think this is where she confest her feeling toward blake, in a heartbreaking fashion) and maybe her mother...Yess, I can see that....

I actually think that Yang will go the other way. This will be the start of her becoming serious about what her heart truly wants, which will end up being to protect. It'll begin when she hears that Ruby's in trouble, and that'll get her back on her feet and determined to go to the rescue.

I'm not saying she'll entirely lose her sense of fun forever, but she seems to have the potential to become the next Qrow. Perhaps not quite as crusty, but certainly the character who ends up with the life-scarred mentor wisdom.

Yang has been the character who believed in taking risks for herself. The original Summer Maiden was a person who believed in taking risks to benefit others. That's what Yang's on the path to learning. Meanwhile, Blake needs to learn the Fall Maiden's lesson (to be thankful for what she has). Before anyone thinks I'm saying Yang is definitely going to end up the Summer Maiden, I'm going to point out that she ended up being given the same falling maple leaf tease that Pyrrha kept having after the Maiden story was revealed, and that she also needs to learn the Fall Maiden's lesson, even if the fire and fun associated with the original Summer Maiden does fit Yang better than anyone.

That said, we're into winter now, so we're probably going to learn more about the Winter Maiden in this volume, and I'm sure there'll be a lot of focus on Weiss's situation... just to continue the theme. Besides, I think Weiss needs to be in Atlas so that we learn more about the secret of Penny's creation, including why Penny suddenly wanted to move to Beacon. There's also the company's shady practices to explore, so I think there's going to be plot importance in Weiss being in Atlas.

[up][up]So.....she is going to be like her mon? anyway I think Atlas is the next city to be hit since everything point out in that direction: with penny existence reveal, whetever they should or should not repear her or make another, and the shady pratice of both schnee company AND Atlas goverment, it seen the perfect place for the next target

[up]Well, I saw the trope page of the story...there isn much they could adapt from the show,as the story is pretty simple so aside from her flashblack there isn going to be something else

Also I think they will adapt more of snow white in weiss right now in this volume, maybe the little dwarfs?

Mother Atlas will never fall! All hail Atlas!

I mean, Vale didn't fall as a kingdom, just beacon. Or maybe the tower's destruction could've maybe taken down the kingdom in a way.

The thing about "mages" is that we've never seen anyone doing particularly "mage" stuff except for Cinder and Amber (who are the definition of special case). All There in the Manual says that Velvet's a mage, but we've only seen her weapon. Glynda and the Schnees each have a "magical" Semblance and a weapon, which is no different from, say, Pyrrha.

Does "mage" mean Weiss' combination of glyphs and occasional Dust stunts or is it more than that?

#30321: Mar 11th 2016 at 8:17:07 PM

[up][up]How close Beacon is from Vale? sometimes look they are in the center of the city, other times they are far away, that would help

And even them is grimm infest city right now, and with comunication shut down, Ozpin missing and distrust and chaos of the thing...yeah, things are pretty bad.

Also one question, what D&D type feat the chararter better? Weiss is bard, Ruby is a ranger, Yang a brawler and Blake a rouge, Nora a barbarian, Ren a monk, Jaune a fighter and Phyrra....I dunno

[up]Pyrrha's is a Fighter. Maybe Psychic Warrior because of her Semblance, but her fighting style is very vanilla.
