So couldn't create a big dome around someone (big enough that they couldn't escape it before it formed completely, since materialization isn't instantaneous) then just fill that dome to trap them under a small mountain of metal?<br /><br />It seems like it would work better than creating the metal directly on the enemy, since they can just use their superstrength to rip through it before it forms completely and traps them.Bobbynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3731978491355560966.post-66987355627842629852014-09-18T17:51:46.747-04:002014-09-18T17:51:46.747-04:00The Servant Emperors are about 600 years old, yes....The Servant Emperors are about 600 years old, yes.

The whole soul deal is what allows strong servants to amplify their physical abilities and not... die immediately because someone's filling their body cavities with molten metal. The shield is a very double-edged method of getting around the second, but the first comes with time alone.<br />However, when most of the bad guys can wipe away Hector's iron like rain off a windshield, he'll need to get extremely creative with how he approaches fights. Right now, he'll work best by hanging in the back and controlling the battlefield from a high vantage point using iron constructs as distractions while the alteration and destruction users take potshots and the transfiguration and mutation guys go in as infantry.<br />What he needs is some practice with making hot, cold, and moving iron.<br />Can an element be created at a particular density and state, but with a temperature far above what would normally be possible for that, so that it basically explodes immediately?Michaelnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3731978491355560966.post-77624767812644492952014-09-18T12:50:22.350-04:002014-09-18T12:50:22.350-04:00I like seeing the lies in the story, it sorta driv...I like seeing the lies in the story, it sorta drives home the point how absurd hector is. At first the lie was about 3 times longer then the truth (indicating he was three times stronger then someone like roman was after a month or so, since roman did passive training mostly), and then he fights off someone much older then himself, and then fights him off again with the other guy getting a bonus resurgence. And then he at least stalls Harper. He stalls Mr. Insta-kill. Now he's telling people that hector is over 6 times stronger then he should be? So what, in a span of 5x he becomes 2x stronger then the normal linar projection says. So 40 months he should be 12 times stronger or so. 3 years and change, stronger then a 40 year. 200 months and he would be about a 400 year. Assuming the trend holds without some big change (like having to fight a Harper to the death and winning), which would make it faster. So yeah, lie away while you can Garoval. You're on track to be the strongest set in the world in less then thirty years.Clever-name McGeenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3731978491355560966.post-8726730064746181332014-09-18T12:33:47.900-04:002014-09-18T12:33:47.900-04:00Oh I understand he's had an accelerated growth...Oh I understand he's had an accelerated growth rate due to all the combat, but the greatly inflated time periods garovel is giving......even money says it comes back and bites them in the ass lolSatannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3731978491355560966.post-40006428056563176832014-09-18T11:04:30.085-04:002014-09-18T11:04:30.085-04:00Fixed now, thank you.

The his is too much in the sentence.<br /><br />And again Garovel is lying about the duration of the servant relationship. First was to Roman (I think he said 5 months when it was barely 1 or 2) and now it's 3 years. <br />In that context: does soul synchro go up in a linear fashion? We already know that soul synchro only increases over time and there is no way around that. But we never knew the "growth rate" of that. But now we can take the usage time as a meter for growth. 3 years = 36 months = 4.5 * 8 months. And 6 minutes is 1/5 of 30 minutes... which would mean a very linear and proportional increase over time. With that said, we will never see Hector permanantly soul empowering something or passively defending against servant abilitys without the shield... at least not without a major time skip in the story. Which IMO is unlikely ^^Abravalisnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3731978491355560966.post-12815402925305162242014-09-18T05:00:18.523-04:002014-09-18T05:00:18.523-04:00Hes been constantly been getting in fights and ach...Hes been constantly been getting in fights and achieving emergence.
