Jotari Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 It's likely given more time and planning, the next installment will be giving us a lot more unique and creative special moves for our fighters that aren't limited to the preexisting base moves. So what alternate special moves would you like to see our character use? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anacybele Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 Luigi needs his Super Jump from Super Paper Mario. I don't know why it's an alt for Mario instead. xP As for Ike, an actual shockwave for Ragnell as a standard B would be lovely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knight Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 Ice and Wave beam variants for Samus b, along with Speed Booster and the multi-missile thing from Prime 2 for side b. Shinespark for up b, and maybe some sort of bomb combo attack that elevates Samus. Boost Ball (similar in function to Sonic's) for down b as well as X-Ray visor, you stand still and shoot a triangular beam out of the visor that has limited range but can be angled and does damage per second on foes (no stun) and if shown on a container it reveals it's contents.

Elieson Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 I'd like to see majoras mask Young Link come back, and have his Goron/Deku/Zora masks to totally change up his combat styles. Everything Knight said Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I was really disappointed Samus didn't get any of her own abilities for her alts. She has such a wide pool to draw from, they could have at least called her mega bomb a power bomb. Ice Missiles would have been a super easy and fitting one to do for a side special alt. I'd also love to see her get the Space Jump as a recovery too. Imagine working like it did in Other M, infinite horizontal movement but no vertical movement. I also think sense move could be a good counter for Samus or Zero Suit Samus and if health recovery specials become more standard, Concentration could make an interesting down special.

The Wave Beam shoots faster than the charge beam and can go through walls but is significantly weaker. A fully charged one acts like Robin's Thoron and goes through opponents as well.

Mighty Kamina Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 (edited) This may sound silly, but if every character got Palutena's treatment in regards to specials I'd give Shulk Monado Purge as a Side B option. (I'd make it more of an anti-projectile projectile, making it destroy other projectiles but it would only do 4-6% if it hits, and the projectile itself would be relatively slow). I'd do the same thing for Ike and give him a shock wave as a standard B option. (It'd have the same use as Monado Purge.)

I'd love to see Shulk have Monado Hurricane as a recovery. Seeing Monado Buster represented in some kind of accurate way would be nice too.

Loki Laufeyson Posted October 31, 2014 Share Posted October 31, 2014 Monado Purge would be so goddamn broken though. The whole point of it would be to cancel a power up or immediately drop an opponent's shield. (pretty sure why we didnt get it to begin with, is because Purge would have been way OP.) Ice beam on Samus would whomp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ice beam on Samus would whomp. Well it wouldn't have to be entirely accurate to Xenoblade, as Monado Buster definitely isn't. (It's more like Monado Enchant than anything) I think it could possibly work quite well as an anti-zoning tool. (or whatever you'd call something like that) Edited October 31, 2014 by Monado Boy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knight Posted October 31, 2014 Share Posted October 31, 2014 Essentially the plasma beam, though. Wha? I'm pretty sure I described the wave beam, the plasma beam is stronger but doesn't go through things unless combined with the wave beam.

I'm pretty sure I described the wave beam, the plasma beam is stronger but doesn't go through things unless combined with the wave beam. What you described was a combination of both, which very often happens in the game due to beam stacking. The Wave Beam passes through platforms and walls while the Plasma Beam passes through enemies. Combine them both and you have a beam that passes through everything. For the purpose of your idea, calling it the Wave or Plasma beam would probably depend entirely on what colour you want it to be.
