Tribute to Statesman - New Judgment Power

So we're killing off Statesman.

I was reading the post about the new SSA, it discussed the decisions behind it and so on..then I reminisced about the few times I teamed with Statesman.
I am referring to the good ol’ Maria Jenkins arc – Hero’s Hero. During this arc you’re trying to rescue Statesman from capture. My favourite mission is the last one. You face Tyrant, defeat him and release Statesman from capture. What I like to do for this mission is ghost to the end…release the big guy and then clear the map! There are many times where I won’t lay a finger on the mob but instead just lure Statesman close to watch him lay waste to the mobs and just enjoy the show.
Of course doing this I noticed there’s one attack that he has that I’d LOVE to see as an option for a Judgment power. I think its called Hammer of Justice (not sure) but it’s the one where he slows his animation slightly and then punches the ground sending cracks all around. It has a great sound effect, great animations (electricity highlights) and is an awesome PBAoe strike.
I just think it’d be a nice tribute to him, and would go great with my melee toons. I know we currently have an alternative animation to Footstomp that mimics this attack but to make it a Judgment selection would be epic in my mind. I know I’d replace many of my current Judgment selections with this one if it came out.
Food for thought?

are you saying there's an alternate animation for void judgment that looks like Statesman's Hammer of Justice?

He's being cynical over the fact that Statesman appeared in that promo video using the Void Judgement instead of his trademark Zeus' Lightning.

Ya just watched the video.
So that attack is called Zeus' Lightning. That's the attack I'd like to see ported over to the Judgment attack.

It looks awesome!

We will honor the past, and fight to the last, it will be a good way to die...

Huh. The most interesting thing I got out of that link, is that I have been pronouncing "Numina" incorrectly. I always assumed it was "New-Mee-Nah"




Thank you, Champion.

For some reason, I always miss that 2nd n when I say or read that name. Half-mistakenly said/spelled it Numia even though I've heard it said correctly before.

It's okay. I don't understand why, but I always mispronounce "Synapse", though only in the context of the character. I pronounce it and read it correctly, if I were to see/say "chemical synapse". For some reason, my brain doesn't reconcile that it's the same word.




Thank you, Champion.

Ill motion for a hellz yes . Power is nowhere as lame as void judgement and shouldnt be compared to its lameness. Wanted the power ever since I saw it in game a few years back when I did my 1st RSF

Upon Statesman death part of his Incarnate power is released from his body back into the world (universe, etc).
At a later date (i23?) other Incarnate beings feel this power and can attune themselves to it (2 E.Merits??) allowing them to harness and use the Fist of Statesman instead of their current Judgement power.

I like. I'd also pay 2 E. Merits to unlock too, or some sort of way to earn the use of it.

I for a long time said "Archanos" not "Arachnos" LOL
