What exactly do graders mean by montage fighting/killing? I see them mention it in their gradings but I have only a vague idea of what they mean by it. I don't actually read the threads, just the gradings, so I was hoping some nice internet person could explain it. |

Basically, it comes down to mass assault of mooks or in this case more than likely characters that shouldn't be mooks. A character killing or assaulting folks dynasty warriors style in a single post when it really shouldn't. But montaging can be used for pretty much anything, destruction of a town, ships etc. Some characters are at that power level, others are not and use such a scene out of their limits. Characters that are at that powerlevel use it incorrectly and speed-up to such a point where you wonder why they even bothered to fight 1000 mooks when it could have just been 5 and be just as epic. Either way it depends on case to case whether montaging is right or wrong or just bad writing. |

Yeah, basically what Ice said. For instance, take this post I just wrote right now.
Really, if you aren't going to put the effort into describing how you are beating some enemies, you shouldn't be rping it out anyways. You don't have to make each enemy you fight the greatest fight the world's ever seen, but you don't need to write so it would have been just as easy to just time-skip past it. That's why graders will sometimes not give you as much of a bounty increase as you would normally get, because they felt that you didn't do anything to earn it.
