The Ability and Proficiency System
This page involves the Abilities and Proficiency system, which is a core part of how Combat Roleplay and "Competitive" Roleplay works on Massivecraft. To see an explanation of general Rules, Terminology, and Mechanics used on this page, read the Abilities page. To see a broader explanation of the Abilities and Rules used on this page, read the Proficiency Page. To see an indexed list of all Abilities, read the Ability List Page.

Command Point Buy is part of the Proficiency System. Command Point Buy is specifically designed to allow a character to sacrifice all offensive capabilities in favor of command support on the battlefield, and directing the flow of battle. Command Point Buy Abilities require the Stance Ability provided for free as soon as a single Point Buy Pack is purchased from this selection. Command Point Buy is only recommended for people who feel like they can pay attention and don't get overwhelmed by Ability usage in Group Combat. A lot of Command Point Buy involves paying attention to Link Powers established on Allies.

Stance Ability

The Command Stance Stance Ability is required for all Command Point Buy Abilities. This Ability cannot be point-bought, but is included for free as long as at least one Command Point Buy Pack has been purchased. This Ability does not do much besides enable further Command Abilities, while adding some baseline buffs. As a general ground rule. Stances cannot be Countered, Prevented, Canceled, or interrupted in any way. Please note, if your character has this Stance Ability, they cannot acquire any other Stance Abilities, regardless of their source.
