Trunks Sword Overpowered

[SuperSaiyan]

I think Trunks Sword is Way over powered Trunks is Like the best character in esf because he can transform at 1 mil pl he has a sword which is unblockable andis mostly used by Trunks character like 80% of the time and NOT 20%

Sword is tooo overpowered so it should be changed alot eg making it so that its only used 10 - 20 % of the time or trunks can only use it in SSJ and he needs 2 MIL to go ssj cause its way to used to much and basically ur toast if hes ssj and uses sword

 

[Goten-son]

yea i agree it is to overpowered cause a lot of noobs tend to use him and when i attempt to block when they melee me i always forget he can get you and i know teleporting should be used but its hard to get used to lol

Well think of it this way, is the Trunks in ESF any good at anything else? He's got one high powered blast when he reaches SSJ, except that, what's he got other than his sword?

 

[SuperSaiyan]

He hasa High Powered Finishing Buster which is Stronger then a Kame Hame Ha

He has a Fast Charging Burning Attack which can take off small damage but blinds the enemy like Solar Flare

He has SSJ Very quick so he can take out people very fast

he starts out with about 800 K pl so he needs to kill like 2 people and hes SSJ

He doesnt really need the sword or at least make it its proper value where its only used 20% of the time and not 80%

He cant move while charging his Generic Beam but its Stronger then other peoples Generic Beams

because he can go ssj so fast hes probly the msot used character so he won't need his sword

He has Unblockable Meelee attacks and because of this u have no chance against a SSJ trunks

His Finishing Buster Blast Radius is Huge it charges pretty fast as well




These r a few points of why trunks wouldnt need a sword hes got every good and his sword Should be changed so that its used 20% of the time + 30% Meelee damage but +70% chance it can be blocked

-It might be, it's ball attack, it's nice, woohooo for that.
-It's not that fast charging, it will blind for less than how much you need to connect something nice, and cause it's so weak it will almost always be deflected.
-Ummm, you know... Gohan is as quick at SSJ as Trunk is, and he is slower in SSJ mode than other SSJ :]
-He starts out with 700k PL and that's a glitch cause it should be 650k acording to the ingame menu.
-You dug your own grave there, you're saying he doesn't need something he uses all the time in the series just cause you don't think it's fair.
-Yes he can and why would it be? Don't be fooled by the two-handed charge animation.
-Ahem, Gohan, Ahem. Need I remind you that melee is not all about PL? Watch the show and then talk about needing the sword.
-Don't I? I play Vegita most of the time, want to come be Trunks and get yourself a w00ping?
-So? Are you a beam/ball spammer?
-The only thing I get from your percentages is ... nothing. Be a sport, use melee while thinking, only newbs think Trunks is "TEH M3l33 G0D".

The most I would go for is a chance for higher PL people to block the sword like some do in the show. The whole *caught your blade between two of my fingers and I can do mostly anything I want to you now* is kinda cool. Sorry if i didn't make much sense, I'm new here.

Edit: I got your percentage thingy but usually those add up to 100% and swords tend to no be blocked by wee little no-PLs who would actually most likely be chopped in two by the first hit.

*sigh*

you should know its not the sword that makes the man

first of all his sword IS blockable, just not if your under 20% of you HP, and you know what? if your down that far anyway you wouldnt have survived for much longer anyway.

i get this all the time when i play trunks. "omg that sword is so cheap" "your such a sword lamer". you know what really shuts people up? when i change to krillen and still rape them. its not the sword, its the player.

trunks is one of the slowest people even in ssj.

burning attack is useless untill they fix it and make it a ball.

finishing buster is suposed to be a beam.

now as for supersaiyans argument points

- the finishing buster is a beam. a beam is dependant on Power Level. the finishing buster is not always stronger than a kamehameha. it has nothing to do with the character itself.
-burning attack blinds you for perhaps a second making it useless against any half decent player.
-as Xer has said, gohan gets ssj as well, with a kame nuke.
-as Xer has said, he starts with 700k not 8. normally i can kill around 5 people and attain ssj. it also depends if all the people in the server are playing as buu or playing as lower levels.
-im not sure what you mean about the sword. in the show he used it whenever he could, why not in the game? if your talking about the gib value... it is 20%. ive never gibbed someone with with the majority of their HP still in tact.
-he can move with his generic beam, i do it all the time. and again, beams are dependent on Power Level. it has nothing to do with the character itself.
-its true he gets ssj quickly, but so does gohan. and i dont see all that many trunks's or gohan's around in the servers.
-again his melee attacks ARE blockable just not under 20% of you HP. and what makes you think you would stand a chance against any ssj? it also depends GREATLY on the player behind the game.
-again... beams are dependent on Power Level.it has nothing to do with the character itself. its true it charges fast, but so do many other powerfull attacks. ever heard of special beam cannon?

as for your percentages... im not sure what u mean.... ill say it again. the sword can be blocked, just not under 20% of your HP.

if your talking damage wise this whole time, well then. come to a game with me and meet a krillen up your ass. whats that? my bald head was blinding you? gettin sick of the lame excuses. "the sword is too powerfulll :cry: :cry: :cry: "

 

[Xer]

I've noticed something in Pain's post. We should start a "Krillin needs hair from the start" thread, that bald head just blinds me. And the way he hits you in the nuts with it, ouch, that's not fair either.

Sorry for the spam

 

[Evil_Trunks]

Trunks is in no way over powered. He has his sword, that's it. All his other attacks are garbage in comparison to Goku or Vegeta.

Trunks was terribly underpowered in 1.0. So they added his sword. Now Trunks can actually compete with some of the other characters.

overpowered...pfft. You guys are weird.

 

[Sonic the Vampire]

Seriously, you people will ***** about ANYTHING wont you? I know, let's have a thread about how overpowered Krillin form 1 is because of his impossible-to-charge scatterbeam.

I'm fairly certain it's all been covered already but I'll just make a few notes which will probably overlap the other two arguments.

1.) Yeah, Trunks is the slowest damn character in the game after transformation (equal to Picolo).
2.) Yeah, the god damn sword IS blockable, I don't know where you guys get off saying that it isn't.
3.) Yeah, only if you're below 20% health does it gib you and only then is it unblockable.
4.) Yeah, burning attack blinds you, but only for... what is it... 2 seconds? Solar Flare blinds you for at least 5.
5.) Finishing Buster is almost weaker than Big Bang and takes longer to charge.
6.) If you transform early on your power level will take a big hit later on when other characters start transforming.
7.) He's got no struggling beam whatsoever unless your power level is so high that burning attack can almost stopo a generic beam (at least double PL to do that I believe).

The sword is there for BALANCE. Trunks needs any help he can get, he sure as hell isn't overpowered. If you think he's so awesomely overpowered why don't you take a spin with him and see how well you do?

 

[Pranksta]

trunks sucks if not for the sword. He is one of the slowest and has the weakest moves. Name one character with a weaker move (in final form) than Finishing buster

Meha, SBC, Big Bang, Deathball, Mouth blast(?), they are all stronger, and the people who have those moves are all faster as well.

Trunks sword evens him out

 

[Hibiki]

because trunks is a melee only character he there for gets an advantage in melee over everyone else

and because all his other moves are useless on tehre own with out using melee to support them theres even less of a reason to weaken the sword

 

[Smith|]

It's funny, I bet if we had watched a demo for 5 minutes of before he came to post this, it was a moderate/good player owning him with trunks. Alot of people say trunks' sword is overpowered and I've just gotten tired of explaining it to them ingame so I ignore then, or switch to cell (which I'm 2x better as) and own them. These posts get on my nerves fast.

trunks sword is overpowered, only cause his early ssj archievement makes it overpowered. But even without sword he is still powerfull. I mean, 1 good hit of his burning attack, you pretty much done for. His finishing buster is very powerfull attack, but does need more speed as well as trunks. Only USSJ made slow. I do think trunks need more attack or atleast 1 added. Since he is future trunks, i think trunks should have the masenko ha technique.

 

[Pain]

USSJ is faster than ssj i believe, but only slightly.

fox.... i could quote almost every single post in this thread that says your wrong about the sword. people are just looking for an excuse because they get the snot kicked out of them by trunks players. "oh it must be the sword, he couldnt beat me if he didnt have the sword". gohan has an early ssj also. an ssj OBVIOUSLY is overpowering to a normal player. ok i guess you people dont understand this.... ANY AND ALL ATTACKS ARE DEPENDENT ON POWER LEVEL. THATS RIGHT FOLKS, THE HIGHER POWER LEVEL YOU HAVE THE MORE DAMAGE YOU DO. that goes for melee, or a finishing buster. and masenko sucks.

 

[Dante7524]

alright, i read all the damn posts word for word(what a waste...:S) so I might as well say this. One thing super saiyan said no1 else commented on, so I guess I will...he said "He cant move while charging his Generic Beam but its Stronger then other peoples Generic Beams", but, I'm pretty sure he can move with a generic beam charging, (not 100% since I rarely use trunks) but I know for sure that 1., his generic beam IS stronger than his burning attack, and 2, his generic beam is no stronger than any other characters generic beam. End of subject.:S

 

[Pain]

he can move with his generic beam, i do it all the time. and again, beams are dependent on Power Level. it has nothing to do with the character itself.

word for word eh? ;/

 

[Dante7524]

Sorry, my bad...all the posts seemed to be saying the same thing..:tired:
Yeah, I know, this is spam. Sorry. Gimme a warning if you want...

 

[Sonic the Vampire]

Just don't do it again...

Trunks's sword does not get more powerful when he transforms. It still does the same thing as everybody else's melee unless you are below 20% of your maximum health. He's still slower than Gohan after Gohan transforms and slower than everyone else but piccolo after they transform.

 

[Checkplease]

I think they esf team needs to completly redo trunks....does he even use the finish buster in the show?
Burning attack is a ball
His ssj should be harder to get like 1mil 300,000 at least.
He does need to be faster but just a little
he needs a beam...maybe a Khu ho (kinda charges like final flash but about 2x as strong as a generic beam)

 

[Sentient]

Agree with what has been said before, but...

Does Trunks even use his sword that much in the show..?
sure i remember him chopping up Freeza.. but anything else..?
(watched that part of the show a long time ago, so refresh my memory.. )
