Here's an image I took for it. Unfortunately, this is just like Lightning Facility.



Don't know why I took a picture and posted it, but I guess evidence helps.

It's not a bug in-game, more of a fault with the weaknesses.

Gemini Man is weak to Needle Man
Needle Man is weak to Gemini Man

See a problem? Gemini Man should have the advantage here, but it seems not to be the case here.

I would make it Earth. Crystals themselves form from the Earth's minerals. Plus, it could be a nice nod to Magnet Man's type-shenagins we had, considering Magnet Man is Gemini Man's weakness in the Power Battle games.

Course, heat would work just as well, and we see Pharaoh Man's Pharaoh Wave be his weakness in Power Fighters: Electric Boopalop. Not only that, but in real life, if magma cools down quick enough, it forms an igneous rock with tiny crystals within. If I recall correctly, it breaks shortly after due to the heat. Plus, the weakness cycle isn't affected either, due to lack of fiery bots la Mega Man 3.

Brorman is the best at what he does, but I can't see the reasoning here.

It's sad when Gemini Man is KOed first by Needle Man.

@MegaBossMan : That does seem counter-intuitive, but Brorman put a lot of effort into balancing these so I think we should run it by him first. Mostly just to see what his thought process was and if we can change it without breaking anything. Maybe send him a personal message? When he updates it in the spreadsheet, I'll run my admin script and we'll be good to go.

@TailsMK4 : Surprised I didn't notice that typo when I was running the import script. :S Thanks for catching it though, and it's been fixed now.

@Spinstrike : Fixed the view more link for mechas. Thanks.

@TheDoc : I fixed the Dust Crusher bug, but I've thus far been unable to replicate the Metal Blade one. I tried in my file and in a few other files and it's always 1 WE for me. I'll keep trying different things until I figure it out. Sorry. :/

The Metal Blade WE is resolved; I had assumed that you fixed it, but perhaps I mistook Metal Blade for another weapon. In any case, I'm glad that it's taken care of. Sorry for all the hassle I put you through.

@MegaBossMan : Of course, I knew I'd mess up at some point, well... Cutter was supposed to be Gemini Man's weakness just because of balance reasons, and because he gets some extra damage from Shadow Man's weapon, so kind of a nod to that direction too.

I'd say change the weakness to Flame, no messing with weakness cycles yet the type is really common. This does remove his Flame resistance, and goes a bit against Adrian's original idea, but I'd really prefer it this way.

And really, no, I am not the best at what I do lol, also sorry for late responses, been away for a few days.

Can't blame you, Mega Man 3's weakness chart is really...messed up, to say the least.

(Oops, pointless comment.)

I used Attack Shuffle, and while my robots' stats were changed, the enemies' stats were unaffected. Am I missing something?

P.S: Sorry about the quality, but you can just make out the difference in the stats it SHOULD'VE been compared to the actual stats they ended up having. If you can't, then I'll just tell you: Protoman's attack stat should've been 485, but instead they're 195 or something.

OK, now I'm 100% sure there's something wrong with the Crash Bomb, as I was battling a Lvl. 10 Bass, reduced his attack power to just 1 point, and yet he killed my Quick Man that had 3599 defense and full 595 HP with just one hit. HOW?

Starforce? It sounds like a Player Battle.

Also Crash Bomber is not reliant on Attack, which is why it's not especially good for Crash Man.

its percent based just like acid rain correct? which means atk stats wont matter with it

It wasn't a player battle, it was the Chapter 3 battle in Light's game where you fight a Lvl. 10 Bass and Disco. Even if it was percentage based, how can it take away 100% in one hit?

So THAT'S how it works! That answers so many questions, but the thing is still a bug, or at least an oversight, because the weapon's description says it makes damage based in base HP, not defense, so there's still that.

My newest issue is forum-related...we actually don't have 5,000 characters to use in our posts. I've found it very annoying sometimes even when I've removed some of the formatting in my posts to get all of the way down to 4,800 characters in my post, and it's still rejected because the post is too long. :/

Is the limit really 5,000, or 5,000 was just a number that is close to the actual character limit?

I can vouch for Tails's claim; I've had this problem numerous times in the RP thread. I'll get to about 4,700 or 4,800 characters and it'll say my post is too long.

So....this was strange.

I had a Bubbleman and Ringman during a Player Battle, and the enemy had just summoned a Peng. I used Rain Flush as Bubbleman and all heck broke loose. I'll list them in the order they occured:
1.) The Rain Flush had no effect on Peng. That's fine.
2.) The Rain Flush did NOT hit any other enemy.
3.) The Rain Flush hit my Bubbleman and said that it "did 595 damage" without actually hurting him.
4.) The Rain Flush hit my Ringman and killed him...
5.) The Peng did a Peng Tackle and killed itself.
Here is an image of the aftermath along with a small amount of the log (I tried to get as much as I could but Chrome has this bad tendency of scrolling too much for me).

Also, If I tried to attack with Rain Flush, an invisible Peng would revive, 2 & 3 would repeat, and Peng would die again.

I'm gonna make sure I don't use Rain Flush on a Peng ever again in my life.

@TheDoc : That'd be a good idea, as Pengs have an affinity to Water attacks, anywho. x)

I don't know WHAT happened, there, but, I'm gonna assume that this affinity had SOMETHING to do with it.

@ThatGuyNamedMikey : That's what I was thinking. This hasn't happened when I Rain Flush Bubbleman iirc, though. I'll keep Rain Flushing different robots with Water affinities and see what comes up.
