>>96780929>Guns >>> AllEver see Magneto in action? He's quite find of hurling the bullets back at the humans.And I don't seem to have an X-men cyoa handy. Oh well.
>>96780982You will never be X-Man.
>>96780982Most of these powers are fucking trash, others are so good they seem to come from an entirely different cyoa. I don't know how you can fuck up balance this badly, it's almost impressive.
>>96781095Huh I've never seen this one before. Looks interesting, thanks for posting it.

>>96780911>thread questionIf it's an animal, I think I have a problem, but something like a monster or an AI is fine.Actually, I wish there was one that scratched the same itch as Chrysalis did (one-man space empire).>>96781050Torn between eyes, gills or heart.Eyes are the coolest, seeing in the infrared would actually be extremely useful as well as 100 times zoom. But being blind once per day is shitty (except if you can do it while sleeping).Gills drawback is really simple, just cover your neck most of time. Maybe people who already knew you would find it strange that you got a scar suddenly.Heart is really good, and it will only get better as you get older. My first reaction is "don't go to medical check ups" as you don't get sick but I think people would also notice that you don't have a heartbeat.Meh, I'll take heart honestly, too good to pass.
>>96781095So . . .does this take place on Earth? If not, how did the state of Kansas end up there?Neat cyoa though.
>>96781101I feel a little guilty, taking advantage of the homunculus's faith like that.
>>96781165Dwarf.Why do so many non-isekai powerpickers like this fail to consider what my boring self might have a use for? Skill with axes, for what, so I can chop firewood?

>>96781195There's a newer version of this, with a map and everything.
>>96780911>Shit CYOA in the OP/cypag/ has fallen
>>96781253You have no OC.
>>96780911>>96781253In my humble opinion, it won the competition, no offence to nightrider anon, or the one anon who had to forfeit.
>>96781278I disagree Trashsword is better by far. DDTL is basically "trap option" the cyoa. Its practically unplayable.
>>96781296>Cyoa gives you missions to do instead of just giving away powerWAHHHH UNPLAYABLE
>>96781123Sons and Ultima jobbers die to all of these btw, as do 99.999999999% of Exalted Conquerors(I'm simply built different tho)
>>96781307It's more like the narrator is extremely unreliable and will try to fuck you over at every possible opportunity. But I guess you knew that and just wanted to shitpost, as you usually do.
>>96781333I am sorry but I am the one Conqueror built different. I will see you in the semi finals tho
>>96781307>Just sell your soul to the devil and condemn yourself to an eternity in hell for scraps of power bro!Nah I'm good.
>>96781335>Cyoa gives you points and missions in exchange for power>Anon thinks there's gonna be a bank or something that will enforce the terms of an imaginary contract not stated in the cyoa rather than just playing it using the rules stated in said cyoaBro you being stupid doesn't mean the cyoa is unplayable, it just means you're stupid
>>96781351You literally have an option to do whatever you want on earth and still have a chance to get into heavenI swear you people do not read cyoas and just like to complain
>>96781348>I am sorry but I am the one Conqueror built differentThe other 99.9999999% think so too, only I'm right
>>96781360You are nuts. I will enjoy defeating you just before defeating the Hound
>>96781352Two points:1. I'm not the anon you originally replied to, I didn't call the cyoa unplayable I just stated the fact that you deliberately misinterpreted his point just to make a shitpost.2. The narrator is a literal devil who's trying to cheat you out of your soul, this is implied throughout the cyoa itself, to the point that I don't even think that I can trust something like earthly blur, which should mitigate that. The mission of babysitting his kid is probably the best example of him just straight up lying to get his way. But I know for a fact you will misinterpret my points too, so you can strawman my arguments.
>>96781356Surely the devil will keep his end of the deal, just like he did with the priest.
>>96781383So you are literally imposing extra rules on yourself and then calling the cyoa unplayable because of this. That's on you, not on the cyoa bro. If you pay points for it and then still believe it doesn't work, you're retarded.>he mission of babysitting his kid is probably the best example of him just straight up lying to get his way. Based on? He warns you that accidents tend to happen around the child and you think what exactly? That you're gonna spontaneously combust or something? Based on what?
>>96781296Not this >>96781307 guy fren.no i liked this one more cause of the heavy weight of the first option, as well as the demons demeanour. Even if i rejected the deal. To have to wait 50years to meet your true love and that few people in the world rarely have the option in the first place. Made me truly curse god, giving the demon a win, no matter how small.
>>96781395The priest thinks it's god that killed the child and the devil never says he had anything to do with it
>>96776949Lo, the quest of every true knight is not simply to better himself, but the very world. The noble Sun and tranquil Moon are distant, but measurably so. Put one foot in front of the other, and you will reach them.With heavenly celestial scrolls, I gain insight into the spiritual properties of the material world. My thought is that this will lend esoteric qualities to Litany of the Living Forge, and so my transformation will be spiritual as well as physical. A golden paragon, blazing with Sunfire, astride a lunar dragon. My life is going to be spent in non-stop questing, defeating foes and acquiring loot, so my choices are designed to both make that easier and more impactful. With Unbound Causality, Warhound, and Iron Will, I picture a very Elden Ring experience in my first years in the minotaur’s maze.MethodsHeavenly celestial scrollsLitany of the living forgeSword-singing SermonBlessingsImperial ancestryPeerless prodigyWarhoundWeapon-god physiqueInnovativeHeaven blessed Iron willTreasuresAbandoned beast Hunting groundsEssence furnaceOmni-compassPower concealerBig CheatsLost legacyUnbound causality ComplicationsHero’s journeyMinotaur’s lairVenerable characterEmpathetic Incursion Companions:Marie SuYesod, the blind craftsman

Beeg yeet. R.K.V.>>96781219Yeah, I recall it. Short trip to the archive and I found picrel.
>>96781404I'm not the anon who called it unplayable, are illiterate or something?
>>96781437Lore wise, there is a shit ton of Conquerors.
>>96781424Maybe he didn't kill the kid, but he sure as shit knew the kid was going to die anyway. I don't think it's implied that God killed the kid either, more like it was "his time".
>>96781404Earthly Blur is probably only offered because you're going to hell anyway (there's a reason why the devil can speak directly into your mind and it's not because you're a good person) so he's probably just baiting you into wasting points. Also, you cannot redeem yourself after choosing that, you're basically doomed to whatever fate you had before.

>>96782520No way, the mentors make you practically immune to bottlenecks. The weakest is devourer physique because it is nothing on its own, it needs to consume other cultivators before it's useful.

>>96782634I want to struggle...
>>96782634I want to snuggle...
>>96782634Trust the plan, christmas conquest imminent
>>96782087I was considering going with an ancient bloodline that implemented aspects of a succubi/incubus, but instead was xian flavored and didn’t consume RE from others so much as exchanged/purified it during mutual, consensual acts. However, based on what I can find, all the ancient chinese myths seem to equate sex demons with just taking qi for themselves and an exchange/refinement is actually an ideal practiced by the enlightened. This area isn’t my strong suit, though, so I could be missing something. I’m much better with Japanese mythology and yokai, even if there’s a ton of cultural exchange. It was hard enough narrowing down my Abandoned Beast to a xianli
>>96780832Well the other worlds won't be relevant for quite some time and there is a character limit. There is barely enough space to post a proper build, much less muse on how we'll approach the Events or worlds after Earth with out making a multi-post blog. And I was too tired at the time to do that.
>>96782087Are the Third Eye from the blessing and the one form the Heavenly Clestial Scrolls the same thing ? Do they stack if you take both or taking the Celestial Scrolls make taking the blessing one redundant ?
>>96782747Just say your Primordial succubus was capable of exchange/refinement, but lesser modern succubi aren't
>>96782771It should be the Third eye of the blessings. It's also described the same way.The other question, idk
>>96782634The anon that thought the other guy wa EA was simply tripping balls. Exalted Conquest is either arriving at the very end of the year or one of the earlier months of the next year. So at least, 2 months more. I am still betting on march
How the FUCK are you suppose to transport the lost legacy?
>>96782809February seems more likely...
>>96782816My bet is on April the 3rd
>>96782747I would like to point out that CC is a bit of a kitchen sink setting millions, possibly billions of worlds ranging from strangely familiar to completely alien so things based on ancient Chinese myth makes up only a pretty small fraction of what is possible. There is nothing stopping you from being a tantric sex focused that happens to have the succubus/incubus aesthetic.
>>96782747https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taoist_sexual_practices
>>96782810its just another dimension.The question is how the FUCK you are transporting the Arrays like the training Array
>>96782773>>96782843Agreed, though I do want to keep it ancient. I think I’m going with the Akkadian lilu. That does make me want to adjust my build to include Dreamwalker, kinda fits the bill. Plus, if I’m breaking out into other mythologies, I can adjust my abandoned beast to something like a cat sith
>>96782868The condensation one is just a platform you can carry around. The training one is probably similar.
>>96782868No. The palace is in another dimension. The rest is literally just there in the vault where you start, lmao.
>>96782868I don’t have Training Array, but I do have Condensation Array. I indicated my Golden Vessel generally took the form of a RV and the Array was installed on top like a satellite dish. Unrelated, I have been considering how to better disguise the Golden Vessel since jetting around in a big fuckoff golden vehicle is going to draw attention. Probably gonna give it a sweet paint job
>>96782898It says it can turn into anything. So I just made it a rock or a tree.
>>96782881Then you would be carrying around very big platforms. Like imagine someone with a giant disc like 20x their size.>>96782887You just move the treasures into the dimension then. >>96782898Yeah, something else to carry ti. Their size is what stopped me from getting the trianing array
>>96782926In this setting I could genuinely see someone just carrying around a big fucking disc or riding it like Prometheus
>>96782926>You just move the treasures into the dimension then.Nothing like moving treasures that amount to the output of several nations, all by yourself, at the stage where you are the weakest. >Just 5 more years of moving stuff and I finish! Then I can REALLY start my adventure!!
>>96782921I’m gonna be keeping stuff and people in there, so even if it’s bigger on the inside I don’t wanna shrink it too much. Regardless, I definitely think it could be anything so long as it’s gold
>>96782938Thats why you also pick the Doll servant.

>>96782971The cultivators used to ride these babies for miles
>>96782568Nah. >>96782747Looking at xiaxia tropes as a guide post in this cyoa is a huge mistake
>>96782938They're already in storage treasures? Just put those in the palace.
>>96783005It's literally a xianxia cyoa.
>>96783020I think it’s fair to say there’s enough variation in there that you can mix in other tropes, specifically post-apocalyptic ones, but I would agree that it’s xia at the root
>>96782087How does one copy physiques, bloodlines, etc with Skin Shedding? After re-reading this for the update I think it needs clarification on how thats actually acomplished.
>>96783020Sorry but its own setting, not your Chinese webtoon.
>>96782962If Keter had managed to kill 0^0, everyone would have been happy too.
>>96783020I fucking hate xianxia

>>96783035I imagine with study and some example DNA to replicate
>>96783020People here don't realize that mixing in other genres or defying common conventions is popular in xianxia, they assume everything is the same.

>>96783048>Flattie Keter goddess>No OmegaThats a bad timeline
>>96783035Further, I don’t really understand how the methods and over tricks to gain more techniques really work. The cyoa offers a ton of ways to steal things like bloodlines, physiques, techniques, and such, but each Method, for example, is incredibly deep and requires a specific kind of insight, cultivation, and meditation. And you have TWO, probably even THREE. How can one person mentally internalize so much….esoteric bullshit without imploding into Deviations? Do you just have to be “enlightened” aka coping hard enough to create an internal consistency that allows you to continue developing?
>>96783075Cute and funny

I get it, you’re literally HIM, but I can’t imagine just meditating on a single thing for any length of time. Maybe it’s the ADHD
>>96782962I hate this CYOA because your life isn't important unless you're one of the preordained special people and even then, you're just fulfilling your assignment from the establishment. This is the same reason why the Exarchate is the worst, most cucked country in Outer Reincarnation.
>>96782087>>96782151It's funny how the Azure Radiants temple in the Heavenly Kitchen realm CYOA was the worst GI, but in CC Lost Legacy which is obviously based on it is a strong contender for the best.
>>96783121>Her biggest simp, Anonymous, will make it all better.But I'm going to rescue the child?
>>96783136Its not confirmed. But lets say you are right and his family has slaves.He was literally born into that family and position, and despite that, when he sees himself alone instead of trying to get more slaves he forms a partnership with (you) and ends up forming a real bond. And even his arrogance is explained as false and part to hide his insecurity and fear for the future.He would be a good person born into a bad family.

>>96783170Can you blame him? Imagine feeling insecure and overshadowed in real life, trying to live out your power fantasies in CYOAs, then it's revealed you weren't the main character by default.
>>96783153Meditation is only one way of cultivating. Another valid option that might suit you is hype fixating on something and doing it over and over until you've perfect that thing and carved the true of it into your soul through action.
>>96783160I can buy that. Like in real life a bunch of good people were raised in bad environments. Still we should expect him to be like a politically incorrect grandpa who doesn't realize how racist he actually is.
>>96783166I'm not explicit anon, it's just strange to assume Triffil's from the plant dimension just because he's a plant. It's like assuming an elf is from a random elf world, or a human is from a random human world. The world also makes no mention of the coup from Triffil's backstory.

Wait. Can you no longer change how you look in the update? Was that NERFED TOO?!!
>>96783186>Can you blame him?I find the logic retarded, given the plot hooks sent your way. But even if we assume Anon don't chase the shadow convict, save the child, find a way to stop the reality corruption or whatever - if he needs the CYOA coddling him to find meaning, he was never going to make it.
I SAID POST TOK KINO.
Why are anons making up stories about other anons just to get angry at their own story? What is the point of that?
>>96783230thats... literally the most basic thing in cultivation. It's why no ugly people are strong cultivators, because the ones that were became their ideal self.Which is why the companion section does not matter if they are ugly or not, even Lyra will end up becoming a cute jade beauty draconic girl and Catherine will become a purple baddie.
>>96783233
>>96783245It used to say that at the start in Stages. But it got removed in the update.
>>96783220>I SAID POST DANMACHI.
>>96783230Proof?
Why do dumb niggers post the most pedantic ass takes on options in CYOAs that offer no complexity or interesting options and only diminish the enjoyment someone would have if they were stupid enough to engage with said retarded take.
>>96783248
>>96783200Average shounen protagonist desu
>>96783208Yeah, though different Methods would be easier or harder with different cultivation techniques. Sword-Singing would obviously work better with the hyper fixation practice than say Akashic Ascension.
>>96783035I think you need to bring what you want to take from with you in the Womb Of Rebirth.>>96783075Some Methods contain both the actual Method to cultivate/accumulate RE and techniques to use that RE, the actual Method is what need Insight, that is how I see it anyway, some techniques might be an integral part of the RE accumulation.>How can one person mentally internalize so muchThey need to care about compatibility between Methods and unlike us they have to deal with mental shift from gaining and digesting the Insight their Method need, and I imagine that the better/more complex the Method you use is, the harder it is to find a compatible one, either to supplement your main one with more options or switching to one that can reach higher Stages.
>>96783260Because.
>>96783255It was removed to fit additional lore, but is still obviously the case. This is explicit with Lyra.
>>96783194>Actually it's okay for us to torture the child of god because um, maybe if we get one more day we'll be able to convince the people in the real world where we literally killed a guy to let us out (lmao)

>>96783296>You're so stupid, don't you know that every CYOA comes with free immortality unless explicitly stated otherwise!?
>>96783295Even aside from the obvious authorial intent, it's a genre convention. It's like assuming most wizards don't wear pointy hats and have beards in a medieval fantasy setting, with a companion wizard that matches the description.

>>96783306We not only do not know the author's intent (he hasn't told us) but defying genre conventions is extremely common in media. Especially considering that CC is intentionally mixed with other genres like post-apoc and body horror.
>>96783297>Looks like he wants to force people to pick Jade Beauty.100% is this. Holy discord feedback.
Bloom... my beloved...
>>96783324Think what you want to think, it doesn't effect me and I don't want to argue pedantics.
>>96783292Is ugliness or mundanity not a defect?
>>96783319Did you miss how all the computer programs are going to die anyway?
>>96783307By the lore of the CYOA isn't she also a computer program, just one from a higher layer?
>>96783330>t. Sex toy for the pleasure god
>>96783333No, a defect is like a missing finger.
>>96783337It's a pleasurable experience doebeit
>>96783331I'll simply follow the CYOA's wording, which is that if you are ugly you will ALWAYS be ugly no matter what.
>>96783333You are just coping. He explicitly went back to remove the line about preferred appearance. Why do you think he did it?
>>96783337Sorry anon, but lore supports me. Bloom is on my side and the prince is not using her
>>96783306>The companion wizard has a special power that makes him stronger if he wears a pointy hat>Anon assumes he automatically gets this special power for free
>>96783338Then why is ugliness a drawback. It is clearly a defect.
>>96783350Not every drawback is a defect, anon, unless you think a dragon being around is somehow a personal defect.
>>96783319It's a funny line of thought, though!>Yeah so I'm going to crash out the universe.>Loli in rags got me actin unwise...>Well she's more real than you, clanker>"A-Anon, you also are-">Also the world is dying anyway, so might as well free the kid>"But the V.A.P. is-">Never going to succeed, I decided.>"...If the whole world is deleted, aren't you also going to-">Nuh uh, I'm going back to CYOA diving after this. Later clankers!>"...Fucking Sinthru..."
>>96783346You still need the drawback where you are eternally hunted for your bussy to have Bloom. Don't reply to me, future sex toy.
>>96783336No, they throw out the possibility that all realities are layered simulations but it's not said definitively one way or another. All we know is that from the perspective of the setting, she's the only real person, and this reality was made as a game for her by her father, who the computer programs somehow caused to die so they could trap and torture her.
>>96783357It is. A dragon is pretty hazardous to your health and would be considered by most to be a defect that would make being around you not a preferred option.
>>96783373I don't think you know what the word defect means.
>>96783218>It's not like you're not superior to a lot of people thanks to your birth in real life.Irl people aren't literally ordained to be above everyone else.

For this it has a special place in my heart. If I ever stumble into an interdimensional pothole and have to quickly choose a CYOA setting to land in (without benefitting from the powers that PCs of CYOAs get), it's going to be Seinaru.

As elder Son = Origin Dragon while Elder Noble empowered in the Dreamlands can only stall an Origin Dragon.And Bloom by herself is an immortal nuke monster stronger than said Nobles.

>>96783376>noun>a shortcoming, imperfection, or lack.A dragon marking you as an enemy is a strong imperfection. Dragons are divine messengers of the heavens so in any china based setting, you are being pitted against the heavens and was clearly holding much negative karma to have that fate befall you.
>>96783381>It is one of very few settings where you could isekai to and they'd inject you with unagingness like they do to all other NPCs. For this it has a special place in my heart. If I ever stumble into an interdimensional pothole and have to quickly choose a CYOA setting to land in (without benefitting from the powers that PCs of CYOAs get), it's going to be Seinaru.That's also true for every world with an explicit afterlife, except that most fictional afterlives aren't also being invaded by monsters and natural disasters.
>>96783377>You could assassinate a billionaire or politician if you put in the effortWould this make you a billionaire or politician? No, you'd still be a poo person, only in jail now.
>>96783395Oh? Is it actually said anywhere besides its specific entry?
>>96783292You'd still become jacked and peak human, you just wouldn't automatically become the perfect ideal version of your own beauty. Also, nothing says later stages wouldn't provide this, this is essentially just going up to Nascent Soul in terms of cultivation conventions.
>>96783403It isn't Chinese daoist xianxia, it's Cataclysm DDA with aliens and progression fantasy absurdium.
>>96783399I was lazy and it's the only gif I could find quickly
>>96783421Excuses. You're dead to me. Never post again.
>>96783417It's clearly both
>>96783421You're not helping your case.
>>96783371Given the capacity to simulate a universe within less space than a universe exists (This property would be carried through all layers, if you could make a simulation which can store data more efficently than the space the simulation uses then you can store data above 100% efficency anyways). In the same way that given infinite time with non-decaying electrons it's infinitely more probable that your a boltzmann brain perfectly simulating your existence than someone living in the finite time where living like this is possible, given the possibility of infinite recursion (which is clearly shown) it is infinitely more likely for any given layer to be a simulation than reality q.e.d.
>>96783381You're going to go to the world where everyone's going to die in like ten years?
>>96783403Dont make me point to the sign>>96783042
>>96783416>nothing says later stages wouldn't provide thisNothing says they would provide it either. He went back and removed that line for the update. If later stages provide it, then why not include the line on a later stage if he was already changing that section? Simple, because they don't include it.
>>96783417Still well within the domain of the cultivation slop on webnovel.com which is owned by the chinese so I decree it close enough.
>>96783426I am sorry anon! Please forgive me! Do it for our child, she deserves to meet her father!
>>96783411The entry that talks about how they haven't ever had any success or progress.
>>96783446NTA but my blood pressure skyrocketed upon reading that post.
>>96783416You should automatically assume later stages give you a giant cock, more methods, and a billion pills too, why not at that point? Stop assuming you get free shit for no reason.
Let's assume the companions can't modify their bodies easily, then who becomes better waifu by being beautiful right out of the gate? and who gets nerfed by their ugliness?
>>96782087>not a single Redditor complained about the updateWhy is this?
>>96783446Demand a paternity test now.
>>96783436Nobody asked you for the theoretical basis for that conclusion you retard, that's not the point.
>>96783444It's a staple of xianxia settings. It's not unreasonable to think it.
>>96783472Correct.The dao of west virginia gives unlimited pills.
Flesh sculptors undoubtedly exist in the multiverse. Unless you take the drawback their is undoubtedly a way. Jade beauty is supernatural in nature though so still worth it for the truly vain.
>>96783455...Okay? It's like reading an entry about a kingdom stuck in stalemate until the Protagonist spawns in. Until the Reader decides whether or not they can realistically succeeds it's 50/50.I'd probably lean towards the pessimistic interpretation for 'Free the Child' builds though. Easier on the mind.
Just to remind everyone. Anyone that has a body changing method, without the ideal self form that I removed from the cyoa, you will now look like whatever your method makes you look. Kind of like how Master Triffil looks like a plant because of his method. You WILL look like shit and you WILL take jade beauty to fix it! Now get to it SLAVES~
>>96783406That's a good point. What's a good cyoa that gives you unconditional non-horrible afterlife?>>96783437I haven't read it for years but IIRC the corruption apocalypse was a slow and distant problem, thousands of years away, even in case it won't be solved.
>>96783494This is not your staple generic ideal xianxia. It's intentionally different.
>>96783491It's all simulations all the way down. She's not more real than You.
>>96783502Uh oh, living forge bros, I am not feeling so good
>>96783491My point is that while it isn't guarunteed that she's not real by the logic demonstrated above it's highly likely, that doesn't mean that she doesn't deserve rights, just that her life has no more inherent value than a person one layer of simulation down.
>>96783514Not the point.
>>96783502Stone-Titan sissies... are we destined to be rocks?
Was Yisod a retard before he put on the helmet? I don't know who in his right mind would put on the giant bronze scarab-shell hook mask.
>>967835021. Thriffil is cute!2. Nice, now I got hot tits.
>>96783502Ill be fine actually.
>>96783499That’s how I parse it. I expect the basics of cultivation would improve your standard self, which I’m more than happy about, even if we ignore I’m some Frankenstein clone and I have no idea what I actually look like. Several Methods outright state they impact your physical form and others would imply it. Then, as you say, there’s thousands of way in the thousands of world to become your ideal self. I too interpret Jade Beauty as a supernatural improvement unlikely to be match by all but the most expensive or rare ways.
>>96783519This is a grail so I can't even imagine what a forge would look like.
>>96783535Nobody wants to be an ugly bastard for a million years just because "Um well maybe a magician will come by and fix you in a million years!"
>>96783536This gif is the perfect illustration of the average Exalted Conqueror.
>>96783536And she actually thought she would beat Jobbermesh
>>96783528It probably reacted and moved on its own once it got close enough. Kinda like the Stone Mask of Jojo, that penetrated the head with a drop of blood.If I were in his position, in a joking moment, I see myself trying the weird mask as long as it looked like just a normal non magical thing.I guess he was just a dumb femboy and now its an austistic femboy.
>>96783543Being an ugly bastard makes evilmaxxing for Karmic Alignment extremely easy. It's the most straightforward synergy and it's not even close.
>>96783547Don't be a meanie. I would have my army to support me when I fall
>>96783502could you not have come up with a better shitpost? Master Triffil is an alien from the overgrow world in the world section at the end
>>96783554Do you need to put your rape fetish in every conversation?
>>96783564I mean he's got a point if you take a body method.
>>96783502This is weak bait. Triffil doesn't look like that because of his Method, he looks like that because he's a plant creature from the Overgrown World. Should have gone with the actual example of uncontrolled changes, Lyra, though that'd still undermine the bait a bit since it's noted she can learn to control her appearance.
So... besides the easy dungeon drawback. What other drawback is not TOTAL GARBAGE. And don't say the dragon you delusional jobbers.
>>96783502>no redhead loli with cock hat.You're not Rake.
>>96783565I never mentioned rape, I was talking about amassing a reputation. Rape is no more evil if done by an ugly toad than it is by a jade beauty.
>>96783200literally my hero academia
>>96783536Her bad! But you will forgive her because she is cute right?
>>96783575Not really, Lyra's ability to change her appearance is just part of her method.
>>96783584Youthful is easy, all you need to do is age.
>>96783590>But you will forgive her because she is cute right?Anons aren't that easy.
>>96783590No
>>96783596You're wrong and you know it.
>>96783577The drawbacks are actually quite good. Rake does pretty well with those.
>>96783575She can control her appearance in the sense of going from dragon-human hybrid to human like she was right? Not in the sense she can get bigger boobs and a better face.

Personally I think any of the ones that can be resolved in one way or another are best.Honestly the real worst options are Valuable, Finger-Licking Good, and Doomsayer since drawing that kind of attention to yourself in a cultivator setting is a bad idea.>>96783591>>96783603How do you know her draconic bloodline isn't famous for big boobs and pretty faces? Jokes aside most of the Methods currently available to us don't have a hugely negative impact on our appearance (looking at you Swarm) and most unappealing transformations are deviations and a result of fucking up your cultivation. Stone-Titan and Living Forge might make you look a bit odd but not outright ugly.

>>96783753see >>96782938
>>96783707Nta but I had that idea when the cyoa came out, adding Fated shot for full touhou mode, but I hate guns, and I tend to not post builds anyway. It's a cool idea, and I'm surprised it took this long for someone to also think about it.

>>96783760Oh come on, cultivators always have some way of vacuuming stuff into their storage treasures.
>>96783777Wasted trips
>>96783768Nta but there is a reason why everyone is beutiful in xianxia, it's just that easy. You don't really need Jade beauty for it, the perk is specifically to have a supernatural aura, you can still be ugly with it, but people will think you are the most wonderful thing they ever saw anyway.
I bet the fatass debt collector for the Grand Bazaar chooses to be a fatass because it makes his job more entertaining.
>>96783756>>96783768Nobody wants to buy pills or a wizard a million years in the future, this isn't a solution to the problem of your cultivation getting gimped from how it was previously.
>>96783788Yeah but not in the current version, now cultivating won't help your look.
>>96783743Heavenly Dao. The natural laws of the world. Fate. The ruling force of reality.

>>96783762It's a strong combo. Aside from the obvious bit of debuffing your enemies' speed while buffing your own, ice is also reflective and syncs amazingly well with lasers. The glacial aspect to RE makes up for the relative fragility of the light barriers and presumably makes the projectiles more solid. Overall it's a very neat and aesthetically interesting mixture.
>>96783760That's retarded, the option itself specifically says that they are all already in storage treasures.>>96783779Not only that, they already start in there. It's going to be a bitch to sort them eventually unless they have a magic xianxia catalogue but putting them in the castle to sort later should not be that hard, in fact they logically should already be in there.

But why'd he nerf that? How did anon not being an ugly bastard break balance and need a nerf
>>96783825To force people in jade beauty
>>96783822Consider that this conception of fate flows downstream from Chinese civilization, where bureaucracy is so ingrained they believe their gods have paperwork.
>>96783822it 100% track on how petty it actually is
>>96783827>whineanon
>>96783835He's right though.
>>96783835It's the only plausible explanation though. There's no other reason to nerf something like that.
>>96783825He needed new options but was too lazy to come up with them. So he just took things that were already in the cyoa, nerfed them, and created new options that you need to take if you want what you had before.
>>96783794Having read some Xianxia I can say that a lot of eccentrics CHOOSE to have an odd or unappealing appearance when they don't have to for the lols. Fat old hags, lechy old men, evil shotas as and lolis. That's just how they role.
>>96783827>>96783845>>96783855Nta bit stop whining, jade beauty was taken even in the 1.0 version he did not have any reason to "force" people to take it
>>96783827For the ugly drawback.
Sorry Lyra... you kind of have a butter face. Catherine and Rachel on the other hand...
>>96783862Not everyone is a doormat like you for authors.
>>96783877Give me a reason that is not retarded instead of saying "to force jade beauty" and i will agree with you
>>96782087>>96782151Anyone else feel like taking machine trancendance just so they and Ajax can be a cute robo couple?
>>96783887No. You will just continue to make excuses for the author. Go back to discord.
>>96783862He probably felt he needed to buff it.
>>96783897Depends. Can you have sex? I doubt it. You are a machine.
>>96783912We can customize ourselves silly.
>>96783897Ajax is daughter, not wife
>>96783928You could get a robo dildo and robo vagina. But I doubt you would make it pleasurable.
>>96783929Oh you sweet summer child.
>>96783897no>>96783929both
>>96783929What is the difference?
>>96783933>>96783936
>>96783940You have a parental relationship with daughter.You have a romantic relationship with wife.
>>96783933Nervous system is literally electric circuitry.
>Be Ajax>Be android>Be the only one of your species >Find cultivator>He will be my dad!>He teaches me things>He asked me to search for a "rod" inside his pants>He tried to touch me>I think he is weird>I will leave him. He is definitely weird, he covered his parts with oil trying to seduce me
>>96783946You have a romantic relationship with wife.You have a parental AND romantic relationship with daughter.
>>96783958I was kinda wondering if Ajax is actually built like a child or if their body is more adult in nature.
>>96783958Anon hasn't learned what daddy issues are, cute.
Ajax literally can't get wet. She has no reason to have developed sexual urgues. She is a robot.
>>96783958Slavery is legal
>>96783866Everybody knows that drawbacks that precedence over default or even purchased advantages, so that couldn't be the case.
>>96783969YET
>>96783966Defining her body as "nature" is weird. Given her role, she probably has a body looking more on the younger side, a strategy of the DIMA to make the opposing forces doubt shooting at a child
>>96783974Someone probably told him to do it. I think that is also what happened to heavenly conqueror.
>>96782087Must the mental body created with Akashic Ascension look like your old one ?
>>96783971>Be anon>Have a daughter>Daughter doesn't want to fuck me>I guess slavery is the only option>Be killed in your sleepHappy ending
>>96783966Her body is the girl from ghost in the shell
>>96783980I actually agree with a HC nerf but would have made the 3rd method be a blessing instead.
>>96783983It will look like Ben Tennyson
>>96783986Cope~
Why is there one anon who always gets triggered at incest or pseudo-incest when it comes up?
>>96783987Source?
>>96783962>>96783946I honestly feel like it's the oppositeYou would need to be atleast a bit of a father to most women you want to marry
>>96783994Nah, I just don't understand why would you want to fuck a robot, and that robot obviously does also not want to. If the robot was a yandere, whatever, but the Robot + Not interested combo makes me wonder. Why?
>>96783994It's not incest though.
>>96783993I hate tildes so much
>>96784000Checked but it doesn't say she isn't interested. Infact it says she is desperate for connection.
>>96784007She isn't interested in sex. As she is not biological, was a war robot (so not made in pussy), has no hormones. She wanting a connection = she wanting to fuck. She is developing an intelligence so she wants a social life. That's it.
>>96784002>>96783994>or pseudo-incest
>>96783987great!
>>96783877As the ultimate non-doormat, I decide what happens in a CYOA.Urban Unease?I choose to be the apartment complex, and also cover the entirety of the surface of Earth, slowly expanding onto other planets.Space Hell?I telekinetically control all other participants, mangle them dead, and arrange them in the shape of the phrase "NIGGER NIGGER NIGGER!". This is my message to the audience and the world.African Warlord?My army of pygmies and nothing but pygmies conquers the world. Everyone taller than 1.5m will have their excess height chopped off. Humanity marches on in a compact, optimized model.Magi Case?I tell the Devil auctor to apologize to the Drak auctor for being a little shit. He does so and chills out. The three of us become best friends and play MtG together.Anglerfish?Regular fish. I fish it and eat it. Due to my superior metabolism, it causes me no intestinal distress.
>>96784018You sound like a women.
>>96784025> a women
>>96784022>pseudo-incestNo such thing. Incest is a taboo for biological genetic reasons.
>>96784023Damn, she hot
Incestchads will rule Earth.
>>96783996It is literally the image the cyoa uses for her.
her usb port is dry. You can't fuck her
>>96784042I am having a MAJOR erection.
>>96784044Lube
>>96783209There is a faction that wants to save the child, there is a faction that wants to maintain the status quo, what we really need is a faction that wants to increase the harvesting rates and its efficiency then you can truly be a protagonist working towards a novel and revolutionary goal
>>96784048why?
ROBOT SEXOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
>>96784057Inside of her there is no womb or fleshy walls, but bolts and metal
>>96784073she will acquire it trough the power of cultivation
>>96784068Uh...well, your pic related is self evident.
>>96784079I-I... If that was actually true Ajax is probably the best waifu of the cyoa
Of fucking course you retarded incels find a way to turn things back into cooming.
Stop you all. I will ask Rake, and I am sure he will confirm Ajax will never, ever, have a fleshy touch and be able to have sex.
>>96784079>>96784092Or help her build one with Machine trancendance techniques. She wants to be "closer" to humanity.
>>96784098Well yea.
>>96784100Not necessary I think. If she wants to. She will eventually get more and more human.She is a metal body that behaves like a flesh body. If she wants a vagina, she will get one if she doesn't have one yet.
>>96784068Okay, my plan was to meet her while going through the Minotaur’s Labyrinth and if she’s looking like that I’m gonna have issues starting our relationship off on the right note
>>96784099Yea I am sure he used a picture of a hot anime girl for her by accident.
>>96784118Maybe
>>96784118so is her cultivation a natural/instinctual one like that of beasts?
>>96784098Do you know where you are?
>>96784142Her description literally says she follows instictually the pathways in her body. I just hope that doesn't mean she will become a giant chunk of metal, but just make her present body stronger
>>96784142That's anon reason I want to take her for my Machine Trancendance build. Our methods could synergize if we pool resources and information. She is basically a nascent Machine God following the machine equivalent of Path of Metamorphosis.
>>96784157if he knew do you think he would ask that retarded question?
>>96784170Another*
>>96784176my bad it was not a question
Sexiest cyoag poster?
Is Rake our silliest author?
He won btw
>>96784176It wasn't phrased as a question. More like a smug redditor mocking our hornyness.
>>96784194>only mentioned for shitpostsSome victory.
>Jade beauty makes even inhuman foes recognize your beauty>Ajax is inhuman, she could very well not like humans>But Jade Beauty anon is the exceptionJade Beautychads keep winning.
>>96782087Best methods for quickly equipping and upgrading an army?Machine Transcendence seems up there, an expert spending their time making high level implants to equip lower leveled MT cultivators sounds doable.Entry-level Fated Shot should work with any gun.Bone-Scrivened Talismanic Transcribe talismans should be usable by anyone, but getting skinned all day doesn't sound pleasant.I was thinking of a high level Path of Metamorphosis cultivator 'sharing' mutations with lower leveled ones but reading the description again that doesn't seem possible.
>>96784197That is not italics though
>>96784201>she could very well not like humansShe likes humans. Anon is just salty that I am going to take it in a non-platonic direction.
>>96784210Anon is just a redditor seething over dumb fake morals because the cyoa told him she is a daughter type character.
>>96784206>quickly equipping and upgrading an army?why would you want do do that?
>>96784206Forcing implants or spells on other cultivators that don't follow those methods could lead to problems like deviations. It's better to be a crafter/fat cat that just equips his underlings with good gear. One of the companions has a social method as well.
>>96784223To conquer the planet and then the Three Thousand Worlds and start an interdimensional dystopia?
>>96784210I am not saying she doesn't like humans in the "kill all humans" way, but that she is a machine, she could not find humans beautiful and be seduced.But Jade beauty, being super beauty, works even on her.
>>96784223He wants to make the multiverse as pathetic as his IRL home.
>>96784206Relying on armies in xianxia is a highly questionable decision, please reconsider. If you don't, I advise you to look at Auxiliary Master, formations and arrays are the way to make it work.
>>96780911>+1Lifeforce lvl 1>-1Let's not get greedy.
>>96784227It definitely wouldn't hurt.
>>96784233Why do you think that? The Immortal Empire of the Immortal Realm has armies, and they're probably the strongest faction in the CYOA. Same as whatever is going on the War-Torn World.
>>96784227>she is a machine, she could not find humans beautifulWhat?Huh?Are you implying the we as humans could not find a machine beautiful?
>>96784233Armies as we know them (made of cannon fodder) yea. But Clans and Sects are the main powers in Xianxia and are fundamentally armies.
>>96784233see >>96783042
>>96784226>tfw no interdimensional apocalyptia to camp by the fire and cook some strange native version of meat while getting drunk and playing the guitar.
>>96784258just go to detroit
>>96784206>Best methods for quickly equipping and upgrading an army?You want to give all of them the same Method, Or support them with your own ?
>>96784248In our case, the machine should look like a human (like Ajax). In that case, the machine is replciating what we find beautiful. If you find, I don't know, a PC sexy, thats a mental problem.The machine itself, does not have to have our same tastes. She looks like a human because she was made to look like that, but she was not made to have our same tastes too. She is a machine with a new intelligence. She could find another machines attractive, or simply don't have libido. Jade beauty simply break that, as it works in inhuman species. That same blessing, would imply inhuman beings don't find human beings attractive.
>>96784220Wouldn't she essentially have the mind of an infant?
>relying on an armywhy are orthodox jobbers like this?
>>96784248I was gonna say that it shouldn't really count if they are in a android/gynoid form but then I remembered some guys want to fuck sports cars.
>>96784226whats the hurry? as the leader of a shithole world like earth you you'd have no chances if you wanted to conquer a stronger realm. you just need to become stronger by yourself, and then work on your multiversal empire.>>96784246the war thorn world has non cultivator fight to hold ground while the cultivator are doing something else. the immoral empire does not have an army. they just have elite cultivator they use to fight other factions
>not just using the Omni-Compass to find the best sex in your regionISHYGDDT
>>96784277She is hyper intelligent
>>96784290That doesn't necessarily correspond to maturity
>>96784277Anon's trying to bait orthodox cultivators into hunting him down so he can kill and eat them to fuel his Karmic Alignment and All-Consuming Devourer Physique.
>>96784288>The compass points at a tentacle monster with aphrodisiac mucus that will mind break you and impregnate your bussy

>>96784264>no interdimensional detroit YN cultivator cyoa>will never be taken under the wing of a old Unc trying to teach a yn how to run the streets tokyo-style
>>96784277She is compared to an infant in the sense of all her knowledge about the world is very useless given how much it changed, so she is in a new world she doesn't know. So are we.
>>96784264What country is this?
being "evil" is the logical choice in a cultivation setting
>>96784321being "evil" is the logical choice*
>>96784318Substitute with Prague or Londonstan if your not a burger
>>96784304You're right, we need to be more specific with the compass.
>>96784311>>>/trash/
>>96784328Damn
>>96784342No thanks~
>>96784321Evil is the way of heaven, the path of least resistance. As a cultivator you stand against heaven and as such should endeavour to be kind and considerate.
>Where is th-ACK
>>96784157>Do you know where you are?Well its for sure ain't /trash/. You should go back.
>>96784273Both, really. Since conventional small arms work up to RE-04 even entry level Fated Shot cannon fodder are useful to RE-03/04.BSTT can be useful for making talisman consumables to let soldiers punch above their weight class but I'm not 100% sure these talismans would work well for you if you're not a BSTT cultivator. But they're uniquely useful in that (You) and your RE are the renewable material for them, Stores of Wealth/Auxiliary Master and other materials unnecessary. And the biggest obstacle for Machine Transcendence isn't making your own implants but just having access to good implants at all. You're probably the only Machine Transcendence cultivator on the planet right now, so you'll have to make your own. But what about anyone you teach the method to? If you were in a sect with plenty of people practicing that Method for example, you could easily just get better implants from someone else to quickly advance your cultivation. Probably even someone's old implants that they no longer need. It's unironically the fastest Method there is as long as you have proper infrastructure and support for it.
>>96784370Good is that which keeps you firmly under heaven's controlEvil is that which frees you from it
>>96784375Coomers are a staple of these threads. You're free to cry while we talk about OC
>d-don't fuck robo daughter? but it's our culcha!!!the dao of the pdf is mysterious indeed...
>>96784364I have faith that anon will deliver. Eventually.
lmao he got so mad
I miss when villains reveled in being evil fucks instead of trying to convince you that actually they did nothing wrong, everything they've done is both moral and logical, and they HAD to turn an entire family into soup to feed to their youngest child so they could turn them into a pill which would increase their cultivation by 0.000000001%
>>96784364Cauliflowers weren't good enough for you? You don't deserve dessert.
>>96784379Rather than considering heavens actions we should instead consider it's deeds, the setup of cultivation encourages short term power grabs and discarding allies at the earliest convience. This is because heaven fears the capacity of a humanity united rather than torn apart by the petty greed of its members, thats why it institutes structures to ensure the most powerful humans demonstrate the most antisocial and selfish behaviours.

>>96784671Yes

>...You guys copy everything I do first. Like having dozens of younger brothers.

>>96784688Why? /cyoag/ is a social gathering.
>>96784627Have been since Isekai Dark overlord 2.0
>>96784697Since entropist did not let them troon out
>>96784688Fine, if you insist
>>96784376For a Method to give all of them, it depends of what you want.Maybe Thousand Poisons or Writhing Swarm can share what their produce(toxin/organism) to boost the cultivation of those in the early stages, Living Forge to rush the first step if you took Wealth or Lost Legacy, Shadow so they don't need to eat and breath, spam Inferno or Frost to turn the battlefield into hell for anyone but themself, Verdant to reduce casualties etc.Methods for you to boost them is the same as above, depends how you want to help your armies.Akashic for coordination, strategy, logistic and long distance communications, Heart-Severing for morale etc.I think taking the right blessings is more important, Protagonist Aura, Mastermind, Right To Rule and Wise Elder.

>>96784675In my defense, I needed a hit of dopamine
>>96784732Is it? I can magically force someone to sell me their thing, and immediately give it back in exchange for that 10%. It will look surreal, I consider that a bonus.

>>96784776I’m not sure that Fang Yuan holds up a single deal/contract in the entire webnovel. Not sure why that’s bundled with scheming/strategy anyways.
Imperial ancestry replaced ancient bloodline. What are exactly the changes? both are considered bloodlines.

>>96784776Gonna need to got through the build and see what I can and cannot do and what I need most.Let's remove Roots since I'm not sure about the element, Ancestry since the part I like best is the technique efficiency, Celestial Scrolls will give me a Third Eye to not waste RE and Prodigy will do the rest.Dantian is great for fight with the Third Eye and Warhound.Merchant's Guile or Mastermind, depend how much trading and cultivator level schemes I want to do (schemes that last millennia with tens of thousand of piece). Look like they would do great together but I only have one more blessing.I might go with Dantian, more generally useful and work with the multiple casting of Akashic.
>>96785020The winner takes Tok's soul and can do whatever they want with it. If Tok wins, he has all of our souls
>>96785027No one wants your soul, tok
>>96785035I am not Tok.
>>96785027Tok's soul? Offer me something of value or the deal is off.
>>96785027Why would anyone agree to that?The soul has aids, it is fundamentally negative in value
>>96784995you can't just choose a root on a vacuum, it really depends on your cultivation methods and how much you want to hyperspecialize, ej:>someone with verdant heartwoods sheavs + stone-titan ascent wants to lean into the life+earth affinity further for a druid build: something like wood or nature would be good if they don't want to double down repeating life or earth>someone with fated shot doctrine, machine transcendence manual or litany of living forge is an easy metal or electricity
>>96785049If you have another idea feel free to speak
>>96785027Don't pull me into your cuck fetish, Houndlet.
>>96784995But this blessing is all about external considerations.
OC!!!!https://imgchest.com/p/ne7bld6omy5
What is a Houndlet?
>>96785087Lurk for 999 more years.
>>96785084What, again?
>>96782087What do you think are the "any scenario" where Merchant's Guile would be useful ? Predicting famine and conflict, negotiating agreement in general ?
>>96785084Don’t care. Post Danmachi.
>>96785023no lowly junior= death once you get out of earth
>>96785084It's from r/nsfwcyoa. Go post it in trash if you want.
>>96785084>Waifu pickerI sleep.>Franchise waifusDeep coma.
>>96785084>another cyoa built around a list of characters from random franchisesWhy do redditors do that? A character is meaningful in the context of its setting.
Why do newfags keep marking reddit content as OC?I don't even want to see it, nevermind see you pass it off as your own
>>96785100Unless you're sneaky
>>96785084no immortality=no builds
>>96785115>newfagsIt's obviously a shitposter.
I personaly plan to go for something like Duality for my Elemental Roots to obtain full benefits of Karmic Alignment despite being mostly Deva aligned, achieve cool and otherwise impossible combos with it and HCS. This blessing is absolutely build-defining.
>>96784188Me>>96784190How is he silly
>>96784233Writhing Swarm, Akashic ascension and Celestrial scrolls are army builds that scale with you. Idk why you would want anything els.
So... do you start at stage 1 in the cyoa? Is stage 2 just waiting or do people cultivate for stage 2?
>>96785100Already got it along like half of the blessings.
>>96785100True
LotR OC!https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Yl9wFIrrSYnxFYtEoBOONrRiH2pCv6Xx/view
>>96785096Basically anything that is a market or transaction. So ideas like "sexual market value" or military logistics other game theory type deals.
>>96784991The contract is the most powerful thing in the cyoa. UNBREAKABLE. ANY CONSEQUENCE. It is stage 99999999999999 power.
>>96784995I'd say primordial chaos, but that go a no from rake, so fate, the supreme law of controlling everything.
Answer my autistic question!
>>96785181And go so Yisod will keep being yours
>>96785124Duality is not an element.
>>96785138>do you start at stage 1 in the cyoa? Yes> Is stage 2 just waiting or do people cultivate for stage 2?cultivate
>>96785160Why not make an imgchest link for this? Googledrive is a shitty way to share anything.
>>96785160>Has immortalityThis CYOA is acceptable
>>96785205Anon...
>>96785160Lies
Starting as stage 1 in a world where there are stage 8s running around is practically a death setence, no? Unless you have heaven blessed or something similar.
>>96785203>Cultivate to peak humanIts over... everyone dies in the labyrinth
I want to sleep, please stop talking and making noises. Please be considerate of others.
>>96785220Yes. Stage 1 is just a normal human. Even stage 2 is a human, dying as they slip on the stairs.
>>96785228...<3;D
My biggest issue with xianxia is that the powerlevel eventually reaches escape velocity and it never ever fully lands again. You have eventually have gods pingponging celestial bodies for fun. That kind of scale is just boring desu.
>>96785220The amount of stage 8s is probably less than 5 and you have a whole world to not meet them. You would have really bad lack to meet them
>>96785202And Fate is?
>>96785239Agreed. Rake should just make it a maximum of 20 stages. With only like 3 people in the setting being stage 20.
>>96785222Checked and people have been seriously understanding that drawback.
>>96785248a franchise with good waifus
>>96785239The issue with xianxia is that nothing and no one matters1000 level 4 could not beat a level 6There isn't anything of any interest in the setting because instead of a single system resulting in multiple phenomena it is many systems all converging to one phenomena. It's just power levelsYou need to ignore the chinese snake-oil retardation if you want to enjoy the setting
>>96785220Why would a stage 8 care about a stage 1? Sure if you run up and start showing your ass they'd probably smash you but there is a big difference between a fly buzzing in your face and one outside your house.
>>96785242My point is that a stage 3 can kill you, even with all the perks, if they get you as a stage 1. And I assume they are quite common. Which means you need to hide from everyone until you get stage 2 or 3 and can actually comfortably punch above your weight. People forget that stage 1 is not much stronger than a regular person.
>Normal human>Must cultivate 2 stages to reach superhumanWait a second... is the whole cyoa secretly a joke from Rake and every single player is just going to die out there?
>>967852731000 level 4 could be a level 6. At least in CC, the jump is not that high
>>96785272
The problem with xianxia is that Dragonball is just better xianxia. It's already been perfected.
>>96785220>take heaven-blessed>take lowly junior>take seventh sense>take kind tribulationsThere you live on easy mode and cant die unless you are retarded.
>>96785273bro there's literally a list of levels and what they can do on the first page. the jump isnt that drastic
>>96785283It is worst than that. Stage 1 and stage 2 are still human in all aspects except regeneration. It is until stage 3 that you get super strength and durability. Anyone on stage 3 can ragdoll stage 2 and stage 1 jobbers. You have to cultivate from 1 to 2 and then again from 2 to 3 to even stand a chance.
>>96782087Is the Frog In A Well malediction worth it ? Could you even discover what the Spliced Tree for example ? Or would you have just enough of an idea that it can copy stuff but not know what ?
>>96785294>>96785305The point isn't about the individual levels, it's about the way it treats powerI actually said level instead of stage to distinguish this but it doesn't matter
>>96785283>My point is that a stage 3 can kill you, even with all the perks, if they get you as a stage 1.The anon would be dumb to not have either a luck/stealth boon, a GI to rise his level like Dharma weapon or a companion to help him.> And I assume they are quite commonDefine "common" the majority of people are not even stage 2>Which means you need to hide from everyone until you get stage 2 or 3 and can actually comfortably punch above your weight. People forget that stage 1 is not much stronger than a regular person.You should be able to either already punch above your weight or you should have a lot of advantages to cultivate quick.If you die at the start, with so many advantages, either you put a ton of drawbacks up your ass or you are dumb and courted death
>>96785322>Define "common" the majority of people are not even stage 2Where does it say that?
>>96785283The majority of people left on that Earth are probably stage 1. You're forgetting that people are having to try to brute-force cultivation on a low RE world and most people don't have cheat powers to make cultivation easy. So really how many would bother with it and succeed? You have to either be super motivated and focused on cultivation or be highly motivated, focused and gifted in cultivation.
>>96785317For me? no. I appreaciate information a lot
IIRC, in the previous version Rake said something about how anyone with Methods can basically skip some stages. Normal stage progression is for Methodless plebs.
>>96785336So only strong people are left on earth. Yeap, you are dead.
>>96785343Maybe he nerfed that too.
>>96785343Rake lost my trust...
>>96785357You should start at stage 3. Otherwise, you are dying to a mosquito with malaria.>>96785357kek
>>96785322>>96785336>gets killed by fallen the second he steps out of the bunker
>>96785363Yeah. From now on I'll only believe in respectable and truthful authors such as Tokhaar GoldjnrcjHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
>>96785273>>96783042
>>96785351>stage 1 people are strongYou are really a jobber mentally, in the literal sense.Just 1 GI makes you 100% able to stomp the planet if you have a working brain
>>96785283>a stage 3 can kill you, even with all the perks, if they get you as a stage 1.you could kill them to if you have a gun, mildly superhuman does not mean shit, a gun can still kill something like a bear.>And I assume they are quite commonwhy? rake already confirmed that the leaders of each settlement are level 4 so that must be what talented people managed to achieve until now.also reminder that the enchantment listed on the first page are only the baseline, and that if you properly cultivate a technique (unlike everyone else who gust makes thing up in a shitty way as they go) you would be a lot more powerful than what is listed
>>96785372>Didn't read the cyoa
>>96785372B..but my Dharma weapon... that states you can contend with above your stage, which is stage 2, still human level. Oops. WAIT! My companions... that I don't get at the start. Oops.
>>96785317Like the description says, it'd depend. Innovative, Peerless Prodigy and/or Heavenly Conquerer Foundation would get you around lack of Method knowledge. Protagonist Aura and/or Seventh Sense would help finding companions/events. If you could figure out how to use Extradimensional Library it'd probably help a ton figuring out any other treasure and maybe some blessings. If you're taking most of those anyway like me Frog isn't a bad trade off.
>>96785283>My point is that a stage 3 can kill you, even with all the perksThey job to guns. If you aren't a T*kfag you win ez
>>96785389is that even surprising at this point?
>>96785388There is at least one level 8 around earth though. So maybe settlement leaders are just jobbers.
>>96785317Imagine taking Frog in a Well, Thousand Venoms Texts, and Writhing Swarm's Canticle. Would (You) trust your overwhelming urge to drink poison and get infested with parasites?
>>96785393Luck or Seventh Sense or Third Eye would solve any problem of that kind.The companions would protect you without being there, as you are fated to meet them, if you didn't meet them yet, you can't die. It's like OR fate fuckery
>maybe there is more to life than coomingHow do you kill that voice in your head bros?
>>96785414It doesn't affect methods.
>>96785404too bad because they have fated jobber doctorine so they can sense and shoot you faster with their own gun than you can react.
>>96785424quickly, bring out the goon folder!
>>96785404>they job to gunsSo do (You)In fact, anon will job to the zombies if he spawns in a area with a particularly large horde.
>>96785424Seek sexual gratification NOW.
>>96785433>So do (You)Wrong nigger. I place my trust in the strength and certainty of steel.
>>96785418>Uses 7th sense or third eye to see that there are indeed fallen everywhere around him>Can't do shit about it because he is just a human
>>96785433
>>96785424Have sex.
>>96785401You dont lose knowledge on your methods. It explicitly says you lose your knowledge on every category in cyoa except for methods.
>>96785411The level 8 guy is the exception. The majority of the setting are jobbers, which is to be expected. I don't understand this paranoia, there is like 5 different boons with different ways to not die. There are treasures to literally revive. There a companions to protect you, you have access to the greatest boons not only in this world, but in a lot of worlds. You have fate and luck on your side.Thinking "I will die if I am not the top of the verse in the first minute" which such advantages is truly being retarded
>>96785449He used the term "job". You have to prove him wrong now or face 1d4 viscious mockery for the rest of the thread.
>>96785433Everyone is dying to zombies. Specially because these zombies can become superhuman.
>>96785441roving band of gunslinging RE-0 gangbangers kill you the moment you walk out the bunker
>>96785447If you didn't read the cyoa, don't try to talk about it.1 shitposter really got tipsy right now and is trying to derail the discussion. I am not contributing to you sperging out
>>96785459>Everyone is dying to zombies.Maybe you lil bro but I'm built different.
>>96785458Anyone that uses the term job is a DBZspic until proven otherwise.
>>96785455>t. died to zombies after walking 2 seconds outside the vault
You don't get it. You'll die even if you pick the option that says you won't die.
>>96782087How the fuck are you supposed to use sword method when bullets kill you until stage 6.
>>96785476My companions will protect me. Try again
>>96785480Nuh uh.
