Ascension 4 Years, 3 Months ago

Will it be possible? And if so what limited abilities would you gain from it? The second the question left my mind and I saw it in front of me I first thought 'delete stupid post' but then I thought a little longer. What if ascension was possible for higher level characters when they are killed? What if you can unlock ascension and you get one great act to perform before the others boot your backside back to the corporeal realm? Would that be any good or just annoying?

Ascension would be a good idea for when you max out your level. You could choose to Ascend, and then come back to Human form, only at level 1. Then, you could go through the game again with some kick ass abilities. The Asguard could be "recloned" instead of ascention, and the Gould could just have offspring with the same mind, even though it is possible for Goulds to ascend, it would seem odd to have Asguard and Goulds ascending. I'm not sure about Jaffa...
Whatever, I don't think they would do this, but its a good idea.

For the Jaffa it would be the whole idea of reaching Kebb. Which is ascension for them I think. I never really grasped the whole Kebb concept for the Jaffa. From the episode involving Kebb it pretty much seems like ascension to me.

sounds good, but would be hard to put an end to an endless fight if ppl can still take part of the fight, while dead.
Ascend at endgaming to reach new areas would be cool tho, so only the 50ish can reach "the lost city" or w/e. That would be after a longass quest where most would give up to kinda bring the elite (i totaly dislike this word) up there... if so my woman will be damn pissed at this game, cauz knowing myself, ill spend a shitload of nights on that lol, cauz i hate longass quest, but i hate even more givin up.

Don't ask yourself how much pain the System Lords can give you, ask yourself how much you can handle before kneeling to your true and powerfull God.

Ah yes, sort of reminiscent of the original Jedi grind from SWG. For those of you who are not familiar it originally took at least 2 months to become a Jedi in SWG and that's if you played a lot, I'm talking 10-20hrs a day. But man was it worth it for that sense of accomplishment and the amazing new abilities. Then of course it became a starting Profession and the subscription cancellations came. But back on point it could be a great end-game or super class type thing (sorry my brains shutting down).

I agree, Ascension would be the ultimate goal. But think of it, someone can't be that overpowered. However, If it comes, I think you should be punished if you interfere. If you've seen the Atlantis Episode with the girl Athar just blows up a Wraith fleet with a single tought, you might grasp the aspect...

yeah, id have to disagree with most of u and say that this is something i wouldnt want in the game, unless it was a very temporary thing, like for example, in one mission you get ascended and you use that to finish the mission and then you go back to normal after that. but really, its a pretty hard thing to get acended, so realistically its not like every human and their mother should be able to do it, and if it were a long quest chain or something that isnt gonna stop many many people from attaining it

I like this idea, as a higher level character, when you die you get the chance to ascend... However im not sure what powers you could gain, because as you say, the others ascendeds like 'oma desala' would stop you, just as they did when jackson acted against anubis.
there maybe the option to learn some specific knowledge... like a secret gate address to some new power source or armour or weapon cache perhaps...
Ascension was mentioned by the developers in the SGW official forums, but i cant remember the exact what the reference was...
But i like your ideas...

Ascension is a process by which sufficiently-evolved sentient beings may shed their physical bodies and live eternally as pure energy on a higher plane of existence full of knowledge and power.
So maybe it can be used as a rather great escape maneuver. Were you ascend to a new location in game somewhere? Might have to think about this while I am painting the den... But liking your ideas also...
