Need Help to Create Homage to Peter from Deadpool 2

benoitseanbenoitsean Posts: 322 Arc User
Hi guys. I would like to create an average, ordinary guy like Peter from Deadpool 2. No powers, no weapons, no special talents or abilities what so ever. Just your normal family man that just decided to fight crime in his neighborhood. Heck, he doesn't even wear a costume. He just goes out in normal everyday street clothes. I have no idea where to start on this build. CO community please help me. You're my only hope. Thank you.

    As soon as you create him strip off all powers and stats and leave the PH. Then patrol the means streets of Westside. Just be sure you never give him any powers, specializations, talents, etc. Easiest build I have ever helped on ;)

    Yea, joking aside, I'm not really sure what to give you (other than a blank build) when you say "No powers, no weapons, no special talents or abilities what so ever". I assume you aren't meaning CO's uses of some of these terms (like Talents in a CO build vs. 'talents' in a common sense). Regardless, you can RP as an average Joe, ofc, but dealing w/ gameplay is another matter entirely. Perhaps you can elaborate more on what you want this character doing in combat. Is it just fisticuffs? Cause you don't have many options there that don't look too fantastical, but it's prob still doable.

    Well I was thinking of maybe some punching and a couple of pistols. That's about it. What do you think?

    Okay, well here's some basic brawling mixed w/ some pistols:

    (Unnamed Build) - Freeform (Melee Damage)
    v3.44:36

    Super Stats
    Level 6: Dexterity (Primary)
    Level 10: Intelligence (Secondary)
    Level 15: Recovery (Secondary)

    Talents
    Level 1: The Specialist (Dex: 10, Con: 10, Int: 8, Rec: 10)
    Level 6: Impresario (Dex: 5, Rec: 5)
    Level 9: Negotiator (Int: 5, Rec: 5)
    Level 12: Coordinated (Dex: 5, Int: 5)
    Level 15: Quick Recovery (Con: 5, Rec: 5)
    Level 18: Acrobat (Dex: 5, Con: 5)
    Level 21: Healthy Mind (Con: 5, Int: 5)

    Powers
    Level 1: Steady Shot
    Level 1: Defensive Combo (Rank 2, Rank 3)
    Level 6: Bullet Hail (Rank 2, Wall of Bullets)
    Level 8: Form of the Tempest
    Level 11: Night Warrior (Rank 2, Rank 3, Silent Running)
    Level 14: Conviction (Rank 2, Rank 3)
    Level 17: Molecular Self-Assembly
    Level 20: Holdout Shot (Stim Pack, Open Wound)
    Level 23: Backhand Chop (Rank 2, Brutal Strike) (*or Rising Knee w/ FS adv)
    Level 26: Resurgence (Rank 2)
    Level 29: Demolish (Rank 2)
    Level 32: Retaliation (Rank 2, Rank 3)
    Level 35: Cower
    Level 38: Thundering Return
    Adv. Points: 34/36

    Travel Powers
    Level 6: Athletics
    Level 35: Hover Disk

    Specializations
    Dexterity: Combat Training (3/3)
    Dexterity: Gear Utilization (2/3)
    Dexterity: Deadly Aim (3/3)
    Dexterity: Expose Weakness (2/2)
    Vindicator: Aggressive Stance (2/2)
    Vindicator: Merciless (3/3)
    Vindicator: Focused Strikes (2/3)
    Vindicator: Mass Destruction (3/3)
    Warden: Slaughter (3/3)
    Warden: Ruthless (2/2)
    Warden: Upper Hand (2/3)
    Warden: The Best Defense (3/3)
    Mastery: Dexterity Mastery (1/1)

    I didn't give him Str or Con SS, just to make him not seem too resilient or strong. You'll still have suspend your disbelief a bit if you want to make him not be a pushover in combat, but maybe throwing in something like Cower (as a threat wipe and re-stealth) can help balance it back out a bit :p He can also stealth around to avoid engagements, if needed (and you can forgo using Shadow Strike if it doesn't seem like it fits here). You could also think of the self-res as someone_thing shocking him back to life, maybe.

    Anyways, you can use either Defense Combo (when up-close) or Bullet Hail (when further out) for AoE vs trash. For single-target dps, you can use Demolish to initially put up its debuff, use Defense Combo as your main filler attack, and use Backhand Chop (or Rising knee w/ adv) to quickly refresh Demolish. Holdout Shot, Backhand Chop_Rising Knee, and Conviction can all help proc MSA here as well. Gears mostly for Dex, w/ some Int and Rec.
