Spirit Conscript?
https://imgchest.com/p/na7konjjwy8
>>98787788I want to run a couple experiments, would anons mind making builds to see if they balance things better?>Experiment 1: Talent DiscountMaking a builds where your talent rating in one aura type provides a discount. This is to make basic techniques cheap, master techniques slightly less ecpensive, and leave legend techniques largely the same.Compare your "G" rating to the rating required for a technique, if you G rating is higher it subtracts it's value from the point cost.Example:Seismic Strike costs 5 poimt to buy.Your build has G3 in Core.Seismic Strike only requires G1.Seismic Strike now only costs 2 points for you.>Experiment 2: Aura Burst ModeKufoku mentions you'll be able to Double your points after completing an Aura Burst campaign, so why not make builds for that?Make a standard build for your freshly summoned conscript, then making Another build for your conscript after completing all their campaign missions.The second build gets build and equipment points equal to their starting "Potential"(45 for talented, 35 for mutated, etc). They get no bonus alterations.Given how the "Prodigy" alteration works,, double these bonus points points for your second build, but equipment points are not doubled.
>spirit conscript, you stink like unfettered ass, you need to get the fuck out of my thread>it's called aura bruh
I try playing spirit conscript, get all my alterations and my eyes just glaze over when it comes to techniques.

>>98787790Wait, forgot lust-provoking image so anons don't skip.Please read survey I am replying to.
>>98787804
>>98787798So you get to the only good part and are anchored by the exhaustion from the bad parts. I understand.
>>98787808>Hot Succubus MaidHmm, what was I supposed to read? I got distracted...
>>98787819
>>98787824
>>98787829
>>98787788>>98787790So if the aura burst is only 108 hours long, wouldn't the best strat be to invest heavily into Eon Reversal and Eon Convelusion so that I can Train in the Aura Burst for as long as I want to maximize my points multiplier?
>>98787836
>>98787819always hated how aesthetics were married to mechanics so i could never make a build that i like in mechanics and the way it looks

>>98787847
>>98787842this really depends on exactly how extreme the regen is, which we don't knowhowever it has the extra problem of wasting a gigantic fuckton of aura on time fuckeryby pure technicality, it would be better to use spokeless cosmic wheel during the aura burst for getting four trillion years of aura burst (that wouldn't reasonably work either, but try telling anons that)>>98787852 >>98787819yeah! we need more space for our profound lore discussions!yeah
>>98787854
>>98787842At that point just use cosmic wheel on yourself and train for 4.2 trillion years.
>>98787861
>>98787831the real reason aura burst may be shit is because everyone else gets super strong too, yeah, depending on how it actually works (which we don't actually know despite the many different canons of headcanon we've developed) you might find yourself way less important and capable relative to other people
>>98787852>>98787857

So far it seemed like I'd never want to make a build that wasn't in the age of truth, but I think the age of trigram is interesting at least. Getting away from the aura burst may be a good thing. Spirits being the strongest is actually less threatening than a faction war, because their heavy focus on alchemy is way more predictable than the factions doing everything with every affinity.The problem is I just don't like the wheel effigy subplot. What a waste of time, but you still have to do it so someone else doesn't fuck you with it. The same as the fairy star. At least the aura burst is spread out between everyone.And I successfully talked myself back into maining age of truth without any deviation. Great.
>1000 hecking posterinos wasted on some shit cyoanot sure to say if cyoags back or worse than ever (skubwar not counted)
>>98787899I feel profound disgust.
>>98787842Logically eon reversal has to actually just lock you out of all aura regen in the past, because I remember there being items that can fully regen your aura and you would just regain them.

>>98787788Every build I've seen minmaxes wrapons, but what about sheilds and armor?What are the best weapon traits to stack on armor. Which ones are great for your 3 ancient armor slots(cause lets face it, no one is taking heavenly instrument on armor) and which are best kept for beloved name blessing?

"O"rdion Island CYOA>>98787798I feel the same way. I've tried to make a build four or five times (including this week), but the quantity of techniques puts me off. It's a bit bloated and doesn't feel as essential to my character. In general I find myself less drawn to "spell" sections in any CYOA. I think what it comes down to is that I enjoy imagining my builds or characters as potentially outside a certain epistemology, and physical/practical options are less prone to limiting that than forms of magic>>98787905It's mangled, maimed, breathing>>98787930You have to applaud it. I don't like the escalation of hostilities here but it is always a pleasure to see how anons adapt
>>98787942
>>98787941
>>98787943is this the power of a 4chan pass?
>>98787928>but what about sheilds and armor?There are a lot of unconventional combos for armor.Dragoon lets you basically rocket-jump and whe pair with Green Dragon Crescent it lets you fly at rediculouc speed.Ultima Launcher with that would be hilarious.

>>98787788>>98787950Made another Yakuza inspired by last threads Heavenly Instrument Discussion. Tried to make him viable out of the gate but didn’t want to compromise on certain things especially since even as a core brute I don’t want to be locked out of the best Weapon Links which require G3 Flow. Still that’s a long way off and currently he is a Blind Bludgeon user that can wield 4 invisible flails who’s chains can extend to any length so that the heads of them can go flying at increasing velocities at people and hit with insane force. As a Yakuza he can also sneak his weapon anywhere with the Assassin’s Secret Cupboard.

Let's be honest. Spam anon will read the image limit and everyone will ignore the cyoas he posted in and keep talking about spirit conscript.CYOA spamming to drown discussion doesn't work. It's never worked. It didn't kill overlord. It didn't kill jrpg traitor, it didn't kill OR, it didn't kill entropistIt didn't kill the OR updateAnd it's not going to kill annoying spirit conscript skub.

>>98787928Pretty sure nothing beats Supermassive, Reflection, and Redorection in raw defense.You could probably swap Redirection for Vortex, but idk how useful that is since it's covering your entire body.
Which of the scenarios do you think is the most "default" or "status quo" one though? I feel like the age of trigram may be it, because it's the only one where the seals are locked behind dynasties and stuff, there isn't an event that HAS to change the city like in the other two. Plus, one of the campaigns actually mentions one of the seals of the wheel effigy, while the other two ages don't get mentioned outside of the ages section.
>>98787983You'te probably right that it's the default. There are multiple section talking about the unrivaled power of the trigram and how the overseers can't do much about them, which only makes sense in a Strong spirits, weak dynasty/authorities setting.
>>98787928What happens if you take Implantation with an armorset? Does your skin just Become armor?
>>98787990I assume that exorcists, overseers, etc. fall under the populace and authorities alongside Yama and Yudi. But the logic still stands.
>>98787788Why are we posting Spirit Conscript so much recently? Are we getting an update soon?
>>98787901Get one of the keys to the effigy and put it in your secret cupboard

>>98787995Probably not the best idea anon. Weapons/armor don't benefit from body-enhancing techniques unless you take very specific powers or waste heavenly intrument on the armor.>>98787928You what would be funny? Take gravitation on your armor and watch the enemy float away helplessly after hitting you.
>>98787928Elemental conductor might be cool to give you a shield type armor. Several techniques can do something similar but it could be a good idea for the right build.

The trigram will eventually become my servants, and yama and yudi wont be far behind at that point.
>>98787980Supermassive is usually a waste imo but I could see it being a good idea on a secondary piece of equipment like armor.
>>98787867Anon, That's honestly half the fun. Especially if you take the other setting disrupting events for maximum chaos.You might be less special initially, but your power cap will increase explosively and there'll be so many opportunities to Make yourself special.
>>98787983Maybe but the two prince campaigns that give points feel like the Age of Dyad exclusively but you can take them in any build.
>>98788004It sucks for another reason. It's the time when there's the most misery and the spirits are acting the worst. It's the most dystopic age of all of them, to the point it would make you want to unleash the effigy.

>>98788028For you anon. I captured the Centennial Avatar and resurrected Yakshanek.
>>98788014Fucking halo energy shields from Elemental Conductor on armor is the coolest idea I've heard so far.
>>98788030>SPIRIT SUBJUGATIONShe gonna be my collared bitch.
I'm making a cyoa about going into a huge castle/tower that has several biomes in it and you need to traverse through several of them before you face the big boss at the end and steal his amulet to make a wish.Do you think it would be more fair/interesting to have the path be determined by dice? Like, roll the dice and see which biomes you will need to fight through with whatever equipment you prepared?Or do you think it would be more interesting if some biomes led to another ones, like if you want to reach the cavern layer with town in it, you need to go through a dungeon full of undead first?
>>98787928Dismantling would make normal weapons simply shatter on an armor.
>>98788041>Do you think it would be more fair/interesting to have the path be determined by dice?Anon, RYOAs are cancer. You lose half your possible audience even suggesting dice. Half the remainder will ignore the dice and pick what they want anyway.Make taking easier paths cost a limited resource so anon have to plan out the journey carefully.
>>98788036>the problem solves itself.>t. vesuba
>>98787928Silent killer for stealth armor (would make that one with a beloved name blessing.
>>98787928WTF happens if you put Twin on an armor?
>>98788057your enemy gets one
>>98788051Combo Dismantling with Explosive and Oni Thunder for the ultimate ragebait armor.
>>98788056Ah yes so when you die in the armor you turn to ash and they cannot rape your corpse... very smart yes...
>>98787928Grappler for well a Grappler
>>98788065Anon, you're thinking of Cremation. Silent Killer makes your weapon/armor silent, it's in the name.
>>98788041The option to roll is always good, but I wouldn't make it the only option. If you go with the biome-biome set, I think the key is to avoid long chains of single "choices" and links one tier at a time rather than one initial choice leading to many others on one track. Don't think I phrased that well at all but hopefully it comes across to you
>>98788065That's cremation anon. I mentioned silent killer because it silences the item which would be cool on a heavy clanky armor.
