Life of a Colossus - DMSI v3.1 A

[Shannon]

It doesn't matter as much how attracted she is to you as it does how attracted you are to her. Both are taken into account in the sniper, but the vast majority of results depends on how attracted YOU are.

Can I ask what you mean by that? Wouldn't she be very attracted if she was hit by the sniper? Or are you talking specifically about the snipers targeting mechanism?

I am misunderstanding what you mean

The sniper is triggered by and adjusts it's power according to a long list of considerations.

Both whether and how much you are attracted to the other person, and how much they are attracted to you, is in that list. But because we don't really care if someone else is attracted to us as much as we care how much we are attracted to them, the sniper gives a lot more focus and weight to how much the user is attracted to the person being affected, instead of the other way around.

So if you meet a woman who is a 3/10 and she's REALLY attracted to you, it will increase how much she is affected only very slightly. But if you meet a woman who is a 10/10 for you, and she is completely uninterested, the sniper will power up big time and blast the hell out of her until she is attracted, and then power up even more as she becomes more and more attracted.
