It would be pretty sweet if you had King Crimson.
>moshi moshi, Araki-san, we reviewed your manuscript for part 5 of JoJo and noticed that King Crimson is just Dio again. Will you change him?>no
Nah for me I want this dude
>>287342807king crimson would be cooler if araki was smarter
>>287342807Nah. He's gay.
>>287342807you'd need epitaph too

>>287342807You can't go wrong with any of the main big bad villain Stands. They all have top notch abilities. for the world in which they inhabit at least.
>>287342807I'd like to have Crazy Diamond
>>287346260This.It only really gets mega good with epitaph
>>287342807For me it's The World, the original time fuckery.
>>287342807Idk outside of combat and avoiding people it's not useful enough that I'd take it over stands that are weaker combat wise but more useful utility wise.
I want Hermit purple to spy on people and take psychic photos of them in the shower
Killer Queen is my absolute top favorite stand but I can't think of a use for it other than murdering people. It's not like I'm in need of small and controlled explosions in my day to day life, let alone an industructible heat seeking bombtank or Bites the Dust.
what does king crimson do
>>287349582Time Stop but more complicated
>>287348931You could maybe day trade with it if you can find someone willing to blow themselves up, go back an hour, and tell you "Yeah, this stock is going to go up five percent, now get Killer Queen to go back."
>>287349582IT MAKES YOU GAY
>>287349582Weaponized ping.
>>287348785The World only works so well with a vampire master, because it gives you durability and healing to survive whatever bullshit you don't see coming before activating it. KC is the much better stand for a normal human, and much more useful in day to day life.
>>287349582It skips time, like pressing the right arrow key on a YouTube video. The complex parts are simply how Diavolo interacts with the rest of the universe while the ability is active.
>>287342807What's the skill ceiling for The Hand?
>>287351409But Dio was defeated when Josuke attacked The World directly and completely bypassed his durability and healing. Plus in the end he ended up gaining The World's powers anyway.
>>287352431And Dio was able to make far better use of the power than Jotaro ever could, not even factoring in convenient stamina jobber writing. Dio gets his skull caved in? Just stop time and crawl away. The World wouldn't do shit for a normal human in that situation, while KC would always prevent it from ever happening.
>>287342975It's different, though. King Crimson is more like a defense-oriented version of The World.
>>287352369https://youtu.be/hilIqqxwghg?si=EailPMD237mMMUL9
>>287349582Time skip but each use is completely different because Araki is schizo when it comes to early story stands and how they work.
>>287353128>za hando za warudoFucking kekReminds me that Crazy Diamond is also a really handy Stand, really good specs and you don't have to worry about collateral damage for the most part because you can instant fix stuff.I don't like the look much, but it's a really good stand.
>>287353167>early story
>>287349582>braindead explanationle time skip>correct explanationexemption from fate
>>287353363He's schizo in general, but more that he's so completely inconsistent on everything and thinks chapter by chapter instead of having any concrete plan on how anything works from the getgo.
>>287353400to be honest i thought you meant "earlier parts" instead of "early within the part" so my bad
>>287349582what does pot of greed do?
>>287353503gets banned
>>287352369You must be able to talk to it.
KC is just a shittier and more convoluted The World
>>287342807As far as regular use goes, the order is something like:Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap >= King Crimson w/ Epitaph > The World > King Crimson w/o Epitaph > Killer Queen Bites the Dust > Made In Heaven > Killer Queen > Wonder of UI imagine that MiH is fine if you can use it in small bursts to accelerate for specific purposes or to literally pass the time, but it's so easy to fuck things up with that I'd be scared to use it most of the time. With Bites the Dust, Killer Queen becomes a lot more useful because you can just loop back an hour really easily because the trigger is easy to set up. Kira chose to use it in a convoluted way so that he could just live a normal life until his enemies were dead, but he could easily just use it like he did when he first awakened it and rewound time to undo Hayato's death.Wonder of U would probably be an active detriment if you want to live a normal life because you'd probably accidentally kill people all the time.
>>287349582basically time stop for the user, but then reality accounts for the lost time
>>287354473a lot of stands in part 5 were just more convoluted versions of older stands. sucks that moody blues is stuck in such a shitshow of a part. that one could easily be a protagonist stand or at least get a spin off like Rohan
>>287349582It's a lagswitch
>>287348825If you could King Crimson for more than 10 seconds then you could have a lot of really good IRL applications if you test with how it interacts with various things. Like one thing I'm thinking is that if the time stream is "buying groceries" then I'm pretty sure KC would let you skip the actual purchasing part and just end up with the stuff you want in your possession.>>287349582Under Jojo's cosmology, everything that is going to happen is fated and KC lets you step out of that "fate" time stream but since it's fated to happen the effects will still remain.When Diavolo gets shot at during the Metallica fight, the bullets are fated to pierce both him and Nero but he exits that part of the time stream so that he skips the part where the bullets pass through him. He ends up not being shot, but Nero gets shot. That's probably one of the most easy to understand sequences that shows how it works.
