[up]Mercury's last name is Black. You keep calling Blake "Black".

[up][up]Didn't bother to since everyone seem to understand "Black" was referring to Blake. Mercury is normally referred to by his name.

[down]That too.

I just realized, going by Coco's Aura in the fight, Emerald's blow was a Critical Hit. Or Coco has shit defense. I'm just surprised it took me this long to notice that.

[up][up]Or she has a naturally low Aura? Pyrrha did mention Jaune did have a lot of it, so the possibility of Aura levels differing from person to person exists.

"So what abridged series characters would the rwby cast be "

I only saw Yu gi oh and Weiss would be Kaibe, maybe coco would be duke deblin?...or maybe Sun..

"Zwei is a member of the space corgis"

so that would mean Ruby is a corgemancer?

I THOUGHT REDDIT WAS THE EDGE QUARTERS!!!

"Roman: Swaglord "

Nah, he is the pimplord, Mercury is more of douche-lord

In all honesty, the fact that Emerald took out Coco with a single attack (that being said it was In the Back) kind of implies Coco is a Glass Cannon.

[up][up] A hunter's weapons channel their Aura. Coco's firepower is going to be Aura-channelled.

[up] Or it shows us that Emerald knows how to land a blow, and/or that certain types of strikes are more effective against Aura than others.

Coco could be a Glass Cannon or not, but i would guess that because Emerald is like a rogue, they specialize in one-shoting people anyway

It's implied aura works better if you're deliberately channeling it rather than using it passively. Emerald got a sneak hit in when her guard was down.

Wait why is Emerald meh lady? She's cool. And keikaku lady? Weeb more please.

I like Coco but she's more flash than substance combat wise. Bullet spam is shown to be much less effective than running up and smacking/slashing somebody.

#33247: Apr 30th 2016 at 3:26:31 PM

A hunter's weapons channel their Aura. Coco's firepower is going to be Aura-channelled.

However it doesn't show how much or efficient someone is at using it.

Ren is pretty much the only real gauge we have on someone actively using their Aura in combat. As I it stands his best feat has been barehanded, but we also know he tends seem exhausted and gets knocked out quickly.

[up] My post wasn't a commentary on effectiveness or efficiency either. tongue

All we know about hunter weapons is that they're supposed to become an extension of the hunter's Aura. That might mean a hunter's weapon should tell us something about the hunter's true personality.
