Like Touji said, the STR boost isn't all that great. Sure, the Hero gets a 15% Boost, but the rest of the sword's stats aren't that great. It's like giving the Hulk a stick that gives him an extra boost in gamma energy. So what happens if the Hulk swings that stick? SNAP! It would be better to...
Have you ever read prison reports on inmates who are sentenced to solitary confinement due to bad behavior? Most try to avoid that and would rather be put on the chain gang. Being forced to a small, cold room with little to no light can really mess with your mind, even for a short while. The...
Exactly. Solitary confinement can lead to serious and lasting psychological damage. Physical and social isolation, coupled with sensory deprivation and forced idleness, create a toxic combination. Deprive a person of being able to do anything, and he/she will pretty much lose touch with one's...
Correct. A trebuchet is a type of catapault. Both are used to lob projectiles over obstacles and barriers to hit the target. The gunpowder version of the catapault is the mortar.
Yeah, I'll admit that the design of the cross-guard looks pretty crappy, but it could still be wielded. Meyer was about to hold it in Chapter 23.1. Most likely, the 15% strength boost can offset the awkward position of the cross-guard.
Clothing doesn't do anything to the body. Adding on stuff to make Goleo different by changing its body shape could be seen as damage. Again, adding more mass just makes Goleo heavier, and as we saw in chapter 20.2, Goleo doesn't like to be called heavy. It's like answering yes when a woman asks...
If the sculptor's work can be undone, then Touji's skills might be the same as well. Touji doesn't really know, and trying to craft familiars is unknown territory. Touji only knows from the games he played.
Putting in extra mass is going to be detrimental for Goleo. Think of it this way. You're going to add on several coats of paint, wax and some filler to your car. Now you just added some extra weight and the engine is going to be working harder to compensate. Now imagine adding on several hundred...
Don't think that would work either. Remember that Goleo will go back to the default body when in recovery. Again, game mechanics. Besides, adding more mass to make Goleo more feminine will just mean the dress would have to be made bigger.
