Welcome to the Rifts ripoffs page.

you are one of to visit this site.

Firstly, Superpowered Juicers are a nono. The reason for this is that there are lots of superpowers that can drastically increase a juicers dodge bonus(sonic speed and sonic flight come to mind). This, combined with the juicer's auto dodge, make it a little too sick.
A Superpowered Elven Juicer.

If it has more MDC than a GlitterBoy(TM), disallow it. Glitter boys(TM) were designed to be semi munchkin, i.e. have lots of MDC and dish out large amounts of MD. on the flip side, however, they cannot dodge when using the boom gun(TM), so that evens it out a little. Something with more MDC (or even as much) that can dodge will unbalance any game that isn't very high powered.

A dodge bonus of 23 in anything with an auto dodge or more than 6 attacks should be handled like this.

  1. Ask to see the character sheet
  2. get out your lighter (always carry one to a game)
  3. burn the character sheet!!!
  4. say "I guess it didn't dodge that"
once again this is due to the "haha you can't hit me" nature of such characters. Refer to the bit on superpowered juicers for more info

This one gets Really Sick!! The sickest character I've yet seen in Rifts is the full size Zentraedi(TM) Mega Juicer(TM), slightly weaker are the Zentraedi(TM) Dragon Juicers(TM).
Just think, Dragon Juicers get an MDC that is based on their P.E., which with good rolls and well picked phys skills can be up to or even over 40. this gets to be 4000 for full size (full size get *100 P.E. and P.S.) which gives at least 4000 M.D.C. which gets *100 again for being full size Zentraedi. 400 000 (close on half a million) M.D.C. (and you thought Glitter Boys were bad!!!!!)

This is allowed within the rules since by rifts definitions Zentraedi, being interbreedable with humans, are human, and able to become Juicers. Although they would cost more by needing a drug harness 10 times the size of the standard one
Note: Mega Juicer's version is sicker because they get an M.D.C. based on 4*P.E.(approx. 1.5 to 2 million, ouch)
disads: It costs more for refills(100 times more), that's it!

coming soon: Mega Zentraedi Juicers(mabye not they might not be a good thing to let into the public's eyes.)
