[2 Dismissals: Archived]Bottled Water & Stamina

[Fortport]

The idea is to make bottled water affect your stamina. During a run, you could down a bottle and it would help you out in one or another way.

It could:

• Immediately replenish some of your stamina
• Allow your stamina to recover faster so that you can get back on the run sooner when you've slowed down
  
• Lessen the amount of stamina that you lose by running.

 

Let's discuss this?

I approve of things that will let me unathis sonic speed more than 5 seconds at a time.

Less of that. I'm thinking more along the lines of "run sonic speed for five seconds, more often than normal." It could just accelerate the resting period.

I would really like an item that would make moving quickly more feasible. As it stands (as far as I know) the only thing that could even remotely help you is hyperzine, which is difficult to get unless you're a chemist. I would like to at least be able to run to another part of the station and back without being half dead from running.

I mean, I wouldn't want to disrupt the balance that we have. It's reasonable to be really tired after sprinting halfway across the station, but the water would give you a realistic benefit to help you recuperate. Think of it as reducing the cooldown for your next spell. At least, that's one way of looking at it. This could even extend to other drinks that don't have much of a purpose, with water being the best option.

Think of packing some water and then running to lose that extra weight or being prepared for your escape from security.

One sugestion per thread please.

Our current movement speed is higher than intended and will be going down

There are several chemical aids to boost movement speed. Hyperzine, caffiene, and inaprovaline are in one category, synaptizine is in another, and alcohol is in a third. One effect (the strongest currently active) from each category will stack and allow you quite considerable boosts in your base speed and/or sprinting costs/speed. Effects within a category will not stack, so hyperzine and coffee has the same effect as hyperzine alone

The alcohol effect only triggers when you're slightly buzzed but not overly drunk, you have to drink in moderation for it to work.

If you want to go faster, drink coffee. There's coffee machines everywhere

Are you talking to me or TheLetterH? That's not what my suggestion is about at all. To clarify, it's not about making water allowing you to run faster.

It's having water making your stamina recover faster after a run in one or other ways.

[Ron]

Voting for dismissal. I don't see how water would make you able to run longer. (at least it doesn't for me)

[Alberyk]

There are already some ways to help you in sprinting, and I do not think that water would do anything about it.

Also voting for dismissal.
