Darwin

[Hiroki8]

any ideas How to reflect Darwin's powers in game?

[Epimethee]

Hmm... Scientist and Overheated attributes, the latter set to enrage to reflect the heated debates his theory created.

...OK, OK, I guess there must be a comic book character with this name – I just couldn't resist.

EDIT (after a quick search on the Net):

This kind of metapower is rather hard to reproduce; there is currently no direct equivalent in FFX.

Maybe Defence Mechanism Response set to randomResponse, Adaptative, Random Mutation/Mutator and Shapeshifter/Accidental Change/Russian Doll would make an acceptable approximation.

immortal is a good one

[Hiroki8]

I'll try those thanks..but that doesn't leave him with any attacks..i mean his power is defensive so does that mean he can only use a normal melee attack? oh and a follow up..what about Vulcan? how do you replicate his energy manipulating powers?

uhh how do you set defense mechanism to random response?

[Epimethee]

uhh how do you set defense mechanism to random response?

Doesn't it appear under the "Function" options for Defence Mechanism in the FFX Control Centre?

[Hiroki8]

mine doesn't have random response...

only strength through pain, last shot, strength through pain(again), spawn allies, create lightning storm, create hail storm, create firestorm, evasive teleport, strength and resistance through pain, resistance through pain..

[Epimethee]

The double "Strength through pain" is normal: it's displayed first because it's the currently selected option. However, the options Random Response, Energy Through Pain and Earthquake mentioned in the manual are indeed missing from ffxdefault.py. Earthquake is absent from ffx.py too, so it needs to be coded first, but the other two should only require that you edit ffxdefault.py in Notepad (backup first). Replace
