Avatar Exclusive bending abilities?

[nutterbutter]

So, this is a pretty wonky suggestion, so if it gets instantly denied I won't be sad lol.

We all know Avatarstate improves your bending abilities tenfold, and there are a couple of nice avatar only skills (spiritbeam, elementsphere, etc).

But I was thinking, instead of just improving upon abilities, have some abilities from each element, ONLY usable in the avatarstate.

Have abilities such as "Tidalrush" or "Earthslam" that take huge amounts of concentration, but utterly devestate your enemies.

I'm not trying to make it too op, but as we've seen from the show, avatarstate is nearly unstoppable, so I think being able to perform feats deemed impossible without the avatarstate, in the avatarstate, is well, fitting.

An example of this would be Ozai vs Aang, or Korra vs Zaheer, and almost any other fight where the avatar goes into the avatarstate.

Thanks for reading, all feedback is greatly appreciated.

Edit - For some reason I can't upload a gif right now, some sort of error is popping up, but before people ask "what would it look like", take for example when Korra firejets onto a small mountain while fighting zaheer, and spins around it carving off the giant mountain (in the avatarstate) and then launches it at Zaheer. Stuff like that is my basic concept for this change.

Placing Looking Into because I do feel there is a spot in the plugin for Avatar based abilities.

 

[Austygen]

Yea this seems reasonable to me

There already is an ability for Avatars, I believe it is called Element Sphere or something of that sort.

I addressed this quite clearly in my post. I said while there are a few AVATAR abilities (spiritbeam, elementsphere, etc), that there should be one or two abilities from each seperate element that you could use only in the avatarstate, like say an ability called Tidalrush where you have to concentrate and slowly build up a humongous damaging tidal wave. Stuff of that sort.

That, nor spiritbeam are in the core plugin.

Sorry I skipped over that. However, if you're going to suggest getting abilities for Avatar State, you should thoroughly explain each move and specify that it can only be used in Avatar State. This thread is really vague.

He did say it was only usable in avatar state. Maybe instead of only him coming up with the abilities there could be a separate thread for those. This thread was simply stating that there should be abilities that are only usable in avatarstate.

This is what I was saying.

Actually you said the thread was vague yet he was just suggesting the idea of abilities only usable in avatar state. Not the actual abilities

I was only stating that this thread is pretty much useless as far as even "suggesting" it. I might as well make a thread saying we should make new abilities. He should make suggestions for new moves and state that they can only be used in Avatar State.

 

[Pickle9775]

Also, you can only have one move/idea per thread.

My apologies. I'm new.

Why are you telling me my thread is vague if you skipped over it without reading it through? But I admit, it's pretty vague. I did say, though you might of skipped that too, that it's just a "basic concept". Sorry I didn't detail it very well, it wasn't a single move suggestion though, it was just a perk for the avatar state I though might be cool/useful.

Thanks for defending me (somewhat). I hope you enjoyed the idea.

Sorry I'm not trying to offend you. I just thought this thread should've been more about the abilities because it doesn't help the Project Korra team very much if you don't give them more to work with. I didn't mean to come off rude. <3

Understandable, and sorry if I came off rude aswell. Like I said, I won't be sad if it got instantly denied, and I'm still in shock Easte put this into "Looking into".

I just thought the avatar should have more of a kick to it, to show off the true power of the avatarstate. Not just big surge shields and unlimited firejet. Thanks for reading

Maybe It's possible to reduce the global cooldown of the player in the AvatarState, so he will be able to bend elements at the highest speed.

 

[djmyernos]

I think this sounds pretty good.

 

[Rain Drop]

Nice idea, here are a few suggestions.
Instead of having separate moves for the avatar state, there should be combos that use current moves. (for example: you mentioned something like earthslam, so that would be raiseearth (shift) + earthblast (click).
So basically, avatar combos. I think it would just feel simpler, because taking all that time to bind moves that you can't use out of the avatar state seems impractical, and this way you'd be able to have so many combos using so many different elements, without having to replace your slots with avatarstate moves that you'd have to unbind once you weren't in the avatarstate.

I think the avatar state in general could use some improvements first, to make it more realistic.
