I recognize the art style, but can't place the artist...very 70ish-80ish Marvel Star Wars.

As in Shark Week? Adding.

On the topic of a rarer game... Traveller.

Traveller really isn't about the space ships or the psionics or anything. It's about a bunch of homeless guys in more debt than some small countries trying to hawk cargo.

One of my friends is using the Half Dragon image as his character portrait in an Anima Beyond Fantasy game.

[IrnBruAddict]

Got a source for this? :3

It's a pic of Hakurei Reimu, a Shrine Maiden (or Miko) from Touhou (A bullet-dodging old school shoot-em-up game for PC which branches off into many many manga and music videos, set in a paralell Japan full of ancient spirits who don't act like ancient spirits). She is the main character as well as one of the strongest, taking on Gods, Deamons, Oni, Vampires and anything else you throw at her, so I always love to see her badass and since she uses divine magic I think her closest class is cleric. She must be Tier 1 as she's the only one to beat Yukari Yakumo in canon who is pretty much beyond God level power and the only Phantasm level boss in the entire series. (Sorry if I'm rambling, I just love Touhou and know quite alot about it, if you wanna know more just PM me).

If you mean pic source then its by an artist called chama (painter) and I found it here: http://safebooru.org/index.php?page=...view&id=655594

Awesome stuff, thank you. She totally looks like something to base a character off!

[Doorhandle]

NOW PRESENTING: MUSCLE MARISA! MOTIVATED!

A strength-20 (dragon) sorcerer is actually workable in 4E, as it adds bonus damage to their spells.

…Granted, they’ve dropped a few tiers in effectiveness, even considering how the magic classes were nerfed when it was made.

[Rorrik]

The CLW demotivational is from there. The Cleric demotivational is not.

My bad, didn't see the other demotivators inside that spoiler.

[IrnBruAddict]

Bored, done more!

And best till last

Don't you wanna know what the last one was looking at?

Marisa as a 4e Dragon Sorcerer? Damn now I want to start a 4e Touhou themed campaign! Reimu Cleric, Marisa Sorcerer, Alice as a wizard, China as a Monk, Satori as a Psion and Suika as a barbarian! Sounds do-able.

[Doorhandle]

Well, knowing her behaviour, I think Marisa as a wild-blooded sorcerer would make much more sense, especially as that one adds dexterity to damage, and has more lazery/sparklike attacks.

Also, going to shamelessly plug Legend right now and offer the theory that this was the game Red mage was playing in 8-bit theatre, as opposed to regular ol' 3.5.

Hey now, Master Roshi was a lot higher than a mere level 1. He's got to be at least in the teens, and maybe even low epic. It's just that everyone else ended up taking his level and adding a few zeroes to the end for their own level.

Tier 5, and fairly solid Tier 5.

[Tavar]

Note that it's talking about a different system, namely Legend.

[TheCountAlucard]

Note that it's talking about a different system, namely Legend.

Yeah, yeah, but Legend players haven't gone and made a tier system for their classes; the motivator itself is clearly in reference to the D&D monk (even if Doorhandle states otherwise), and frankly, I'm starting to get really annoyed at all this arbitrary hatred of the concept of class tiers.

Emotional baggage and whatnot... Lemme go make a poster for you guys...

Pretty sure this could make a good demotivator. Anyone got an idea for a witty caption?

[IrnBruAddict]

Well, knowing her behaviour, I think Marisa as a wild-blooded sorcerer would make much more sense, especially as that one adds dexterity to damage, and has more lazery/sparklike attacks.

Cosmic magic could also work because of all her star and moon imagery but you're probably on the nose with wild magic. Also might have to rethink Reimu (possibly an invoker in 4e, dont know bout 3.5).

Love that Haagar pic but couldnt think of something good enough for it, I tip my hat to you good sir.

In DragonBall then yes, his Jackie Chun fight was at LEAST lvl 13 (probably closer to 16-17). But if we're only talking about DBZ I would use Goku vs Frieza as the first Epic fight meaning the battle vs Vegeta and Nappa was probably for a lvl 5 or 6 party when you look at the power gap. Master Roshi was too weak to fight in that fight. He was weaker than Yamcha at that point. YAMCHA! So he must be between lvl 1-3 on the DBZ power scale. Just depends what power scale you use.

And for the tax:

[/SPOILER]

Where do people pull all these high levels from?
Granted, they are ridiculously powerful, but somehow I think Roshi was level 13, or even mid-level... I think everyone was under level 10 in the original DragonBall.
Do you have any basis for these numbers?
I know that the main characters' and BBEGs' levels get arbitrarily high later on, but that Roshi part is bothering me...
