I'm the type who's into a hero with a full arsenal of powers, or close to full. Makes 'em multi-dimensional. And after a LOT of experimentation, I came up with some ideas for how to simulate Rogue's power absorption abilities, and I kind of wanted to run them by you guys to see what you think:
woman's touch (Melee): Energy Leech w/ medium magnitude, minor Energy Cost, Extreme Stun
feel up (Melee): Hypnosis swapped with Lifedrain, very high magnitude, low Energy Cost, Extreme stun
absorb status (Melee): Commuted Sentence, minor Energy Cost
I find the 'absorb status' power to be the most interesting: why didn't I think of that before?! Comments? Suggestions?
Have you used the Absorve power attribute that was included in the recent FFX update? It makes Rogue into a passable 'superman' if she touches him and stuns foes at the same time. Great stuff, very nicely coded.
BTW what would your curent rogue cost? I just have a mid 80's/90's one with super strenght but no fire wielding or whatever she does now.
Hmmm...this is the Rogue from her Jim Lee days with the green and yellow catsuit and brown jacket. With the multiple superstrength melees in addition to the absorption powers, not to mention fastidious leveling up, my version of the iron maiden is 16,950 points. Maybe it's because I'm OCD, but when it comes to the 90's versions of the X-Men, I refuse to go over 17,000 (Prof X being the only exception). Aahh, whatever.
I did try the absorber attribute, actually, but ended up not liking it too much because it's never voluntary. I know what you're thinkin', but I think that if Rogue wants to steal powers, she'll take off a glove. I'll give it another whirl, though.
Oh, that one. Yeah, I guess missed that one. Anything else.
