>>96823674Those two are expicitly called out as being unstable, Spirit Stones aren't. Otherwise you'd just explode once you reach too high a stage.
>>96823707if you tried to take in too much energy without the proper foundations you would explode
>>96823707your plan is retarded, you're justifying creating more energy than the universe contains within a month by exponentiation because "the cyoa doesn't explicitly say i can't do this"it's the worst kind of bad faith reading you can make

Creature of the Night V2.1 UpdateIMGchest: https://imgchest.com/p/6eyra829g4pGoogle Drive: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/11zQPtzIqdddoYDd8N1cG8_7PQjbANJ9m?usp=sharingWill try my best to keep changelog page relevant:>Made highest of gen vampires less cursed per new lore info>Better explanation for daysleep(which was always part of your unlife) was written in Torpor and Unlife info boxes.
>>96823726I remember this CYOA. The goddesses had anons seething for over half a month.
>>96823751
>>96823758>Incorporated some of V5 alternative banes which was already the original plan, but was on the fence; Hierarchy, Terror, Skittish and Psychosomatic became a Bane at tier 2. The Cold was made less severe as a bane.>Eligible bloodlines for Camarilla was updated as the storyline is not 100% in line with lore anyway.
>>96823758Neat. I guess I should get around to making a build now. Thank you for the OC Sylen.
>>96823769
perfect guardian + dharma weapon + void bodythis way you can fight people 3 ranks above your nominal rank
>>96823763>when some fresh-faced newbie says "i remember this!" about something that happened basically last teusday
>>96823770>Added a new page “Unnatural Embrace” to flesh out this section and turn it into a page instead.>Features many merits and flaws from V20 revisioned for a CYOA format>Impairments of the Blood section added to be able to choose more Unnatural Embrace choices>Unnatural Embrace now features ways to be a vampire in the middle ages or antiquity>Unnatural Embrace now allows you to make sireless builds for those that just cant be bothered with that aspect of the CYOA
>>96823781>4 new banes added>Daysleep was renamed to Deep Torpor to distinct itself more.For last page(forgot)>Those that loathe rolling now have the option to discard their rolls post-rolling through an Unnatural Embrace choice (or just not roll at all?)
>>96823707Take a wild guess as to why the energy is unstable, you profoundly retarded faggot.
>>96823793Nothing new!
>>96823801Same as before! Wow! (so consistent)
>>96823798...Obviously not because there's a lot of it, since the Place of Power isn't the only nexus on earth?
>>96823816>Moved forward for consistency>nothing added other than that(woah)
>>96823828>4 new sire personality options added>allows for sire to natty blood sorcery>allows for sire to be a bigger fish in a small pond
>>96823836nothing new added after this page
>>96823780I've been here for... I don't remember not being here, even before the eternal summer. The CYOA release was before the Exalted Conquest announcement, so I would agree it's recent. You've got to remember things near and far though, otherwise you'll get dementia.

Thanks for creating a multiversal depression by printing money anon!
>>96823861Guess my next CYOA
>>96823873PoP 2?
>>96823873Capeslop?
Can I use spirit stones as grenades?
>>96823894You'd probably need to crack them properly? I think they'd count as artifacts at that point, even if extremely basic ones. They might not have enough force to do real damage otherwise.
He does realize that if he tries to cultivate with a spirit stone with several times more energy than he can handle, he will just pop like a ballon, right?
>>96823929He just want to buy stuff at the Bazaar
>>96823873HELL cyoa, where you choose the type, intensity, and duration of torture, and then why you're there?
>>96823873Pikachu Cumslut 2?
>>96823929It depends on how spirit stones work in the setting.>>96823940That's a really shit way to make wealth, literally any rare ingredient would produce better yields.
>>96823951There is no wisdom blessing, sadly.
>>96823959Another reason why kill the heavens is the superior cultivation cyoa. Brainlets can just grab the true wisdom advantage.
Would you sex this?
>>96823974Is that your deviated form or your primordial bloodline?
the dao of heaven counters everythingexcept the dao of humans, which counters heaven
>>96823951I agree it's an unoptimized way of making money. Peoples problem with it is kind of funny as their concerns apply to anything the tree could produce. Spirit Stones aren't some special item that has to have special rules. Creating something from nothing is bullshit and in defiance of entropy no matter it actually is. That's what makes it fun.
you can just make lotus bombs using the tree
>>96823974Hus this is too much even for me.
>>96823974Obviously, this is baby-tier shit here.
>>96823993Tree can only Dupe raw materials
>>96823974Do I like her personality and do you mean vaginal sex or blowjobs?If I really really liked her then I would
>>96823983No, it applies specifically to things where RE gets produced in runaway quantities. If you just make your hunk of iron stronger and stronger forever it doesn't really matter and/or runs into material metaphysics limits. If you make spirit stones infintiely then you're producing more energy than there is in the entire multiverse before you get to stage 3. Breaking entropy isn't itself a problem, it's in doing it so cheaply via rules lawyering.
>>96823881>>96823945All of this has been done before. Maybe I will try and do it better.>>96823878Impossible.>>96823949Pikachu Cumslut 1 was a box office flop. I cannot incur additional financial loss.
>>96823873Adopted by a horrible eldritch cultist waifu who wants to groom and mutate you into the scion of her god.
>>96824009You do realize magical materials are infused with RE?
>>96824021Yes, but is it in a runaway manner? It could be a negligible increase in pure RE, and more of a matter of the metaphysical structure and "insight" locked in the material. If your material gets 10% more RE per stage it isn't really a problem even if it can go up indefinitely. If it gets 100% per stage, then it becomes a big problem if the limit on how high it can go isn't something like stage 10.
>>96823873Another WOD CYOA.Likely mage or maybe werewolf.
>>96824042>It could beLol, LMAO even.
>>96824069Are you high, anon? Yes, it could be. We don't know. The CYOA doesn't say anything specific on this topic. I'm not sure it even says anything vague on increase rates at all. DIfferent xianxia settings do it differently. Just like we don't know how spirit stones work, we don't know how material energy content works.
>>96823974I would but the logistics would take some time to figure out. I'm also an autistic xenophile, so representative of around 0.1% of the population and 3% of the /cyoag/ population.
>>96823998I-Yo-I suppose you know when I post certain characters
make a robotput it in your time palacehave it repeatedly use the Tree and the Essence Furnace on every single item within the palace for thousands of years???profit
>>96823836>didn’t change humanity intact or the path chroniclethat’s it I’m bringing out the UV lights
>>96824098Hmm Might need to take perfect servant for my LL build.
>>96824098>>96824127do you even need a robot? doesn't the thing that grows just keep growing into a pile?even if it doesn't you'd be better off just making a simple minion through your own means, not wasting a treasure for this single purpose, though if you want the servant for other reasons too then it's an alright choice, not really minmaxy but not really that bad either
>>96824012Man, I really enjoy your style, both in writing and the art you chose for this cyoa. I just dislike the whole vamp thing so much, I'm not interested in playing it, even when I know it's a good cyoa. Hopefully I'm still around for your next work so I can make a build then.
Better Spirit Stones are physically larger than lower quality ones. Eventually they would be too big to fit on the little bonsai or even inside the forge.
>>96824154You graft a "part" of the material onto the tree to start the process. Though this begs the question if that makes the spirit stone explode.
>>96823758Hi Sylen thanks for the update. I can't promise I will post my build as even just the shopping list would be difficult to compile but know that I enjoyed this.
>>96824164Either it could be what stops the exponential loop
>>96824154in some settings they don't grow
>>96824186Either way*
>>96824186What stops the exponential loop is not reading the CYOA in bad faith. Clearly the two simple treasures aren't supposed to be a reactor that outpowers the entire multiverse. We don't need to pretend that makes sense.
>>96824187Yea we don't know but I suspect there would be some sort of end point one way or another to trying to dupe better spirit stones.
>>96824218not necessarily, in some settings they don't grow in physical size but go up foreverthe problem isn't the nature of the stones, the problem is >>96824199
>>96824199You are still thinking too much like this is a scifi setting with Dyson Spheres or something
>>96824239No, I'm thinking in a worldbuilding and CYOA making sense. It would be completely retarded to make some random quirk some retard found and is now emotionally married to more powerful than all the other choices in the CYOA combined.
Is incompetent really that bad? If I have lost legacy and Yesod, the only thing that i'm really losing technically is like pill creation skills, but you can still cultivate through just raw physicality like Hirak and stuff does, right? You don't really *need* pills and stuff.
>>96824252It isn't more powerful though. Spirit Stones can only really be used as money and to aid in cultivation. You are thinking of it as pure power which it isn't.
>>96824271Yeah, if you aren't going for a crafting build it's fine.
>>96824271I took it on one of my builds. It stings but not being able to craft if it isn't your focus anyway isn't so bad.
>>96824272It's exponential growth. It produces more energy than in the entire universe in a few days. If the multiverse is merely millions or billions of universes and not actually infinite, then it would only take a few weeks to make more energy than there is in the entire multiverse.
>>96824199>What stops the exponential loop is not reading the CYOA in bad faith.>If the CYOA says you are gay it means you are gay stop thinking!
Rolled 20 (1d20)>>96823770Momma didn't raise no bitch.
>>96824301More like>if the cyoa doesn't say you're straight you are absolutely gay! no way of arguing against it!Silly explicitfag
Rolled 4 (1d20)>>96824307>Rare BloodlineOh. Oh fuck. Here we go...
>>96824294There you go with the word energy again. Even if anon had a universal equivalent of energy in spirit stones he couldn't really use it for much. He can't be a type 3 civilization or anything dumb like that.
>>96824310More like>If the CYOA says its balanced you can't see its unbalanced aspectsSilly lobotomitefag
>>96824314Congrats, you are THE villain of the setting.
>>96824315Type 4"
>>96824315He can still power the entire multiverse, in principle. It's a more powerful result than all of the GIs and all of the methods combined.
>>96824314>BaaliFuck it. In for a penny, in for a pound. Nomine Satanas, let none survive.
>>96824314Kill him with something else, fire won't work.

>>96824326Don't worry you are part of the secret rulers of tremere
>>96824324This power scale of Xianxia is fucked anon, it inevitably reaches universal scales and becomes dumb. Rake didn't fix this problem, he just left it open ended, so it isn't surprising that if anons look carefully they will find something that triggers your matterfag autism.
>no no don't worry, i - i mean *he* - can't really do anything with infinite power, nothing silly like crowning myself as the heavens will happen, just stop paying attention to what i'm doing
>>96824339He hasn't reached a high enough level.
I don’t want to be a vampire I want to be a WIZARD
at which stage do you all guess hunting grounds stops being stealth mission and you become the hunter?or do you all think the dangers constantly grow to never be safe in there?
>>96824380Stage 1 if you're not a bitch.
>>96824360It's not a problem.
>>96824377yeah, mage is way cooler than vamp>>96824380i'd say they don't grow but this also isn't earth where stage 8 is the highest, you're pribably looking at sneaking around for the first 10 stages at least, but definitely not all the way up to 20, so let's split it at 15?
>>96824380Stage 1, pussy
>these two random artifacts that aren't even top tier will give me exponential growth and infinite top tier materialsfate will fuck you in the ass raw for this level of arrogance and retardation
>>96824252>worldbuilding in xianxia sloprelax, dude, setting consistency in this cyoa is not that important
>>96824407there would inevitably be consequences in a narrative, and fate is all about narrative
>>96824380There isn't a solid answer, but I would say you could start hunting weak beasts at around 3-5 RE.
>>96824407I shall kill the heavens
>>96824417you can start hunting weak beasts at re1, because they're also re1
>>96824418>his pocket dimension meth lab suddenly explodes
>>96824430Kek
>>96824430Too late, the heavens are already dead.
>>96824407>You don't understand the CYOA says it is balanced STOP NOTICING EXPLOITSANd the funny thing is that cultivation trives in exploits
>>96824377Vamps have Blood Sorcery. Disciplines at 10 are basically dynamic magic anyway.
>>96824407>>96824415Yea something would narratively stop anons long before things got out of hand.
how to roll
Are spirit stones even considered raw materials?They're made out of condensed RE, wouldn't that make them processed?
>>96824439Yeah, but as a CYOA it thrives in the extremely broken things it deliberately gives you.>>96824445"dice+XdX" in options field
>>96824453it has been confirmed
>>96824453they are
>anon makes giga nigga level spirit stone>he tries to cut it and graft it to the tree>...>he's not strong enough to cut itproblem solved
>>96823758Finally, I was getting tired of waiting.>>96823873Cultivationslop?
I don't get the obsession with killing heaven.Wouldn't it be better to rape heaven?I bet the place is full of cute girls there is no point in wasting them with murder.
>>96824479Very shoddy patch. I still say the energy has to come from somewhere and the tree isn't creating it out of nothing. By the moment anon craetes his stage 17 spirit stone, the entire planet he's on might run out of energy, and then he gets hunted down right after. That's a real solution to the problem. No, I don't care that ex nihilo creation of energy exists in other parts of the CYOA.
>>96824503Um no. This is xianxia. Object and concepts don't need to be represented by groups of people around them. They literally get human avatars for no real reason they can shapeshift into.
>>96824503>incelslopcringe
>>96824519>>96824503>heaven is some cunty karen that needs a dick in the mouth to shut her up alreadymakes sense
>>96824509>No, I don't care that ex nihilo creation of energy exists in other parts of the CYOA.Anon destroys his own cope argument
>>96824535Nope. I don't care about that because it doesn't matter. There's no reason to believe the tree is making energy out of nothing.
Who says you can upgrade spirit stones like that?You can't upgrade iron by just cramming more atoms into it.
>>96824573really scraping the bottom of the barrel here
>>96824573Nobody says you can do it to spirit stones specifically. The essence furnace says you can do it to materials in general.
>>96823656>Yea Earth lost the war when the portals opened because their weapons had no RE in them. Use MT to infuse RE into a nuke and now you are cooking. It also means finding good types of new but mundane tech (like on the Ash-Planes) is worth it once you infuse it with RE. It's what really keeps MT competitive.No, Earth lost the war because they were completely fuckin blindsided with massive portal storms all over the place. Any military response that could be mustered up couldn't possibly take on the entirety of the portal storm situation on their own, most soldiers and military equipment were killed and destroyed before they even knew what was going on.
you know, the lotus bomb says it destroys EVERYTHING around youdoes it destroy the entire universe?
>>96824588yeah but it's not just gonna spit out a spirit stone +1what if it makes a spirit ingot or something?
>>96824602It doesn't say that it doesn't. So yes.
>>96824605It's possible. All sorts of different arrangements of spirit stone progression exist. Some settings only have one type. Some have a spirit crystal next and that's the end. Some go indefinitely. Some technically have higher stage spirit stones than can possibly arise in your current multiverse because it's not powerful enough, and some asshole from the multiverse above this one will arrive to kill you if you make one through your cheat ability.
>>96824602It would if the universe was small enough.
>>96824637what do you mean small enough? there doesn't seem to be any limit to the blast radius
I am probably not going to make anything by the 25th. I do not consider the WIP abandoned, I have an idea and I know how to work toward it.
>>96824592Perhaps but tech is fundamentally limited by RE and stage as much as any other method. You can't side step that.
>>96824694Wow I sure hope you aren't talking to the idiot who thinks mechine transcendence doesn't use RE and that's what makes it powerful.
>>96824602You are so stupid lol
>>96824701Yea that's what I am alluding too.
>>96824602If it did Rake would've written it in there.
>>96824708how so?>>96824714but he did, by not giving it any limits?
>machine transcendence = techRETARD ALERT!
>>96824719no one actually understands what anything does bro
reminder that you die to small arms until re-3reminder that you cant dodge bullets until re-6reminder that you die to conventional explosives until re-8reminder that nukes can kill you even at re-10this makes inferior cultivators seethe, but its the cold hard truth and you have to accept it
>>96824719it says technology in the description though?
Anons act like CC having the cope line of "this is balanced" means something and it's not something that's supposed to be assumed it's the intention behind every single CYOA.Lmao.
>>96824725>energy gatherer problemsgigachad body refiners win again
>>96824728bro that one REALLY mindbroke you huh? you've been bringing it up this entire time? that really sucks man, i hope you get better
Rake confirmed that it does in fact take longer to copy stuff with more RE. So it still works, you just need to stop before it starts to take too long.
I just realized/learned something about the Danmachi cyoa and it makes me want to hate it now =\
>>96824746it was made by a brainlet, that's normal
>>96823758Neat. I think I will probably try to make an image build for my currently nameless unvampiric vampire, though it always takes me a fair amount of time to put those together, so it will not be around especially quickly.
>>96824744Hmmm that effectively means it loses it's utility at a certain point but it's still a nice starting bonus.
Is Rake an actual rake. Does he hate leaves.
>>96824744Well that's pretty much what I thought, just phrased from the other end. It also makes the plan to target spirit stones specifically just as dumb as ever. Copy something more valuable with it. In fact, now you can try to see what has the best ratio of copying speed to market value, since it might be something surprising.>>96824768Not at all. It's just slower than in the early stages, but you can just copy a material that otherwise takes a thousand years or something to grow. It's always going to be amazing.
>>96824680Sad, but I understand.
>>96824746Is it the fact that a certain elf can steal all of your spells, and cast them way better, if you also happen to be an elf?
>>96824771He's a rakish lad.
>>96824726MT uses RE (because it's a cultivation technique) to build and integrate implants.Retards think this means that all technology must use RE or it's useless, for some retarded reason.
>>96824776You know anything valuable is going to be powered by RE, right?
>>96824789It must. It's sci-fi tech, that's not going to appear out of nowehere if it isn't using RE. Also more broadly, stage 1 iron is going to lose to stage 6 iron every time, and using one over the other is in fact using RE.

'Tabarnae' appears to be a typo of 'Tabernae,' but even this would be the plural (taverns, shops, inns), while I assume you mean the singular Taberna to be most similar to Night Club.Also, question on the Impairments of the Blood here - there's a standard benefit of "one more beneficial choice OR +1 hook +3 blood," but then the individual choices ALSO frequently list benefits e.g. +1 hook. I take it these are in addition, you get the general + the specific?
>>96824776>It's just slower than in the early stagesGiven the exponential nature of stages and treasures it will reach a prohibitively long wait faster than you think. Lost Legacy non occupied time dilation will help but even that will eventually be overwhelmed.
>>96824832This general has a collective mental IQ of roughly 70~ and this is not good …
>>96824836>"one more beneficial choice OR +1 hook +3 blood," but then the individual choices ALSO frequently list benefits e.g. +1 hook. I take it these are in addition, you get the general + the specific?Yes, its additional. But you only get the +1 hook and +3 blood if you dont pick another Unnatural Embrace or dont have it unlocked to begin with
>It's strictly sci-fi type tech, but the Method cheats using RE in a way you usually can't>in a way you usually can't>you usually can't [use RE for tech]uh oh
>>96824875This still assumes that the amount of RE in things grows linearly.At worst, it should match the time frame of the given stage in general. If it's expected for you to cultivate for five hundred years in a particular stage and the common resources take two hundred years to grow in that stage, then the tree should take a proportional time to that to copy them. If it took 1% of the normal time to grow a stage 1 material, then it should take 1% of the time to grow a higher stage material. This also assumes that the reason the tree is slowing down is just an innate slowdown. If the slowdown is for external reasons, such as a need for energy, then that's superficially worse but actually better, since you can just move to a place where there's more energy and/or supplement the energy through stones.
>>96824924Bro it's a method of cultivation. Therefore it uses RE. Give up. You lost before this even started.

>>96824946I accept your concession.

>>96825291I would say that is reasonable. These drawbacks are meant to be hooks that flesh out your build and that is a great example of that. You get to imagine how your first meeting goes with her and how you would be clueless until then, etc.
>>96825463>At least he won't be too hard to manipulate.That seems, uh, optimistic.
>>96825757True. Less manipulating him to act on my plans, and more pointing his rages in another direction
>>96823781Potential ambiguity, I realize now, in combining choices from this page that require you to increase a curse with those that require you to choose a bane. E.g., suppose I pick Bound Willpower (choose a curse at tier 1 or elevate by 1), and fulfill its requirement with T1 Rare Taste. Could one then pick Cursed Beyond Reason (choose any curse at its bane tier) and fulfill ITS requirement with T2 Rare Taste (bane), thus effectively negating the downside of Bound Willpower (since I'd be at T2 anyway)? Or does/should 'pick a bane' choices require that it's the bane level of a curse you do not already possess?>>96823793Another small typo (which I'm sure you love to hear after just finishing a 'fix' version...), but the Bane tier of the Addiction curse. It says blood becomes euphoric akin to 'heroine' (should be 'heroin' - heroine is just the feminine form of hero), and it also says draining a victim by accident is a concern you must 'content' with (should be 'contend')

>>96823793Does Bestial Tier 1 make it more difficult to resist frenzying?
>>96823758Does the Upgraded Powerful personality trait for your sire give them 20 blood points in total or 10? Like do they get both the stuff from the unupgraded perk and the upgrade or only the highest upgrade?
>>9682618020 in total, I believe.>>96823758Btw, does anyone know around when antiquity starts? I'm thinking around 500-0 BCE
>>96823836Actually, this is a problem that probably does need to be fixed. One of the new Traits & Personality options, "Impressionable" (roll of 20) has exactly the same name as an original option, "Impressionable" (roll of 6)In fact, when I commented previously on someone's roll build, I thought they had the former when they actually had the latter.

>>96826235>obtain immortality through the regular magic version of Vicissitude.What?
>>96826180I originally was thinking still 10, with the only difference being that they can unlock an obscure discipline, but I see now looking more closely that the upgraded specifies an 'additional' +10, so I guess that must be 20 extra blood. Powerful indeed.
>>96826245I'll use life magic to make myself immortal again.

>>96826275>You're trying to have your cake and eat it tooCome now, I'm sure all his plans will go swimmingly smooth, particularly given that he's combined powerplay+ with master in shadows+.
>>96826275>>96826299>he jobs in his own fantasyngmi
>>96826226I believe, incidentally, that your favor level at least is wrong, it struck me as surprisingly high.Gen 6 sire, begins at -5Humanity intact+ rounds that down to -2Preferred sex: +1=-1Gregarious: +1=0Scholastic: -3=-3Loving Embrace:+5=2Powerplay+: +5=7Turf Wars: +2=9Master in the Shadows+: +5=14Eager Servitude: +3=17I think you may have taken +5 favor from turf wars (what you get if it's upgraded) rather than +2; that at least would be consistent with the difference. A lot of numerical benefit to those choices, especially power play - I figure it comes with corresponding risk that should be taken seriously.

The guy in Living Forge's icon kinda looks like he's got a huge boner.
>>96823836I don't see why powerful and Scholastic are mutually exlusive, it makes no sense. Also did nobody notice that now there are two Impressionable? One is the new one opposed to mimic, but the other one was already there.The curses were not fixed, there was just a stopgap measure put on it in the form of a different option you have to pay for.
>>96826382Master in the Shadows has another +3.I prefer grand risk-reward over low risk-reward grinding. I have the capital to do this, mastering Auspex and many sorceries and having good relations with powerful beings.If I didn't take the risk of Powerplay+ and Master in the Shadows+, I'd be at Favor 7. My relationship with my Sire would be night and day compared to now, I would have two less sorcery ranks, and I would not have the Major Boons toward two very powerful beings and consequentially not have what they would have done for me—such great benefits, how can they be gained without risk? If you want to obtain them without the cyoa, you will still have to take risks down the line and spend a lot of time.
>>96826414He's rock hard.
>>96826560>Master in the Shadows has another +3.You mean the +3 you get at the default level? I...well, I was certainly under the strong impression that those are superseded by the upgraded effects, not that they're added on to. Wonder if I'm wrong on that, it would certainly make some upgraded choices incredibly impactful.
>>96826586The default effects being superseded doesn't make sense because there are many upgrade effects that are the same or worse than the default effects. See: Preferred Sex, the first option of the page.
>>96826597Yes, I think you must be right in that. I had originally taken that to mean just that there's no 'stat' difference, just a flavor/plot difference, but there'd really be no good reason for the parenthetical bit at all in that case.
>>96826586You always got both, it's the whole point of upgrading an option, and it's how it works in the other Sylen cyoas, it's a Sylen thing by now.
>>96826623Not to mention how scarce of a resource upgrades to traits are, why would you spend something so precious to get something straight up worse than what you had before?
>>96826538Sylen hates fun
>>96826221>antiquity starts?Somewhere around 1200BC methinks.
>>96823758I if take the new much needed anti-rolling option, do I still flip a coin if my Sire is a Diablerist for the unupgraded Rumored Diablerist personality trait or can I ignore the randomness aspect and choose?
>>96826637Well, that one's not especially hard, you could take it because you like the non-numerical effects of the upgrade.
I think I am picking only Ajax as a companion. The rest of companions could fill her head with useless things. She is a blank slate now, its the best time to make her your perfect wife. Adding other companions will only make it harder. Imagine Marie Su tells her Karen things or anti harem ideas
>>96826655Which are usually also worse if you don't consider them on top of the base option, and most of the time they don't make sense narratively if you consider them an alternative insted of an upgrade.
>>96826688The correct course of action is to pressure both of them into having sex for a few months/years, then banishing both of them. Why would I abandon my oaths for some random future harlots?

>>96827340Fighting my way through the Dima base will be a challenge but its not something that i and most importantly my guardian cannot not handle, especially once we reach Ajax it will all be more easy, the first thing i will do once outside is sell the ingredient looted from the corpses of the undead to the grand bazaar to at the least have some higher grade spirit stones and reach the closest settlement/city to find a place to stay (which I assume it will be easy since the majority of the population is dead) for a week or so until i reach at the least stage 3 once reached it i and my 3 person group will start wandering from settlement to settlement and searching for opportunities to get stronger while also trading from time to time in the bazaar (i think i will set up a stand assigning the Perfect servant to sell ‘lower’ quality products that for a reason or another might not be worth transmuting with the essence furnace), i assume this is when i will meet the other 3 and all the adventures/events will take place.Eventually i plan to escape the low RE shithole that is earth as soon as possible but not before getting a surgery to remove the parasite from some still alive surgeon, or in a more likely scenario i could convince Marie su to perform surgery on me and reward her with a pill if it goes smoothly, with her luck i’m sure there will be no problems. (i will do this only once i will reach the middle stages of cultivation, since body refining methods help getting rid of the parasite).Once I reach the War-torn world, me and my companions will join one side or the other, i don't really care as long as i eat. I assume each side is going to heavily invest in someone if they think they could be useful.

>>96827421Five Fold Madness Method or Five for short has a profound interest in the melding of methodsIn the pursuit of this expanding information networks is a necessity, therefore interstellar to interplanar communication array infrastructure will begin to quietly pop up akin to (>>96812826 )'s suggestion. Thereby providing the foundation for a cultivators network to blossom, eventually giving rise to a Netivate App if enough cultivators end up opting in.
So many jobber builds lately.
>>96827409Based and truthpilled
(1/2) Finally got around to reading it, here's my build:>>96824803Sen Secret Stain (染秘密汚点)Methods:Akashic Ascension RecordsPrismatic Radiance ManuscriptShadow-Spirit SutraThe main objective here is eventually forging an inner world to send tulpas in my stead, gathering resources, collecting information or fighting while I cultivate. until then, I use both the Prismatic Radiance and Shadow-Spirit as my main forms of defence. I'll try to stay under the radar of the bigger fish—and if I'm discovered—using illusions to try and disappear. If all else fails, I'll employ guerilla tactics, always avoiding direct confrotation. This junior does not courts death.Blessings:Imperial AncestryThird EyeSeventh SensePeerless ProdigyPerfect ConduitMutated DatiansLowly JuniorMostly for better, long term cultivation, but Seventh Sense is useful for avoiding being surprise attacked and Lowly Junior to avoid the attention of powerful cultivators.Treasures:Store of WealthPower ConcealerTraining ArrayMiniature PagodaExtradimensional LibraryThe most important treasure here is Power Concealer, others are just useful, in special the training array, as I'm avoiding combat, so I must train harder to offset the lack of actual combat experience. Grand Inheritance:Heavenly Conquerer FoundationVoid BodyHaving three methods seems too good to pass as it gives you more options, as well as Void Body in case I'm in direct combat.Companions:Iska, The AlmagamationAjaxHonestly, I don't think companions help me in this case, but I have to pick two, so I picked Iska, who is a valuable ally once she gets a body and Ajax as a bodyguard and friend. I'm also weak to the father-daughter dynamic.
>>96827550(2/2)Events:Place of PowerCorrupted ZoneHopefully, these will be easy enough while giving opportunities to grow my method.Misfortunes and Maledictions:ValuableFinger-Licking GoodLonelyTrue-Loyalty (Ajax)If I'm another face in the crowd thanks to Power Concealer, I won't be noticed by greedy cultivators, as well as creatures and so on. At least until I become a big fish, but that takes time.World:Corpse CavernsOnce I transcend earth, I should be cunning enough to make my moves from the shadows, carving my place among this world.Fun once you get around to reading it, but not as fun as Luminary honestly. Largest risk is getting discovered early or getting pulled into a conflict thanks to Ajax. Otherwise, should be smooth sailing till upper RE's.
>>96827557>but not as fun as Luminary honestlyWhat was better about Luminary?
>>96827336>>96827327Was that the second page of Tok's VTM build or did someone actually post pedoshit here?
>>96827606The former; probably not also the latter.
>>96827606I didn't see it but my instinct is that they're freaking out at 2D art again.
>>96823836Surprised there's no 'Archaic' personality where your sire doesn't know modern culture at all and that leads to issues.>When you ask your Sire if you can go to the club and she hands you a mace.That type of shit.
>>96827175>>96827219Isn't that the point? Every Method has been scrabbled together by DIMA from disparate sources, and IIRC your ability to use multiple Methods at once is an anomaly. They literally were never intended to be used together.But anyways I disagree with "machine + akashic" dont synergize well. Literal ghost in the machine cyberspace/singularity LARP is a perfect theme for a build
>>96827589Mostly the theme I guess, for the most that I try I just can't get into xianxia (which should trigger my number go up autism but it doesn't). Mahou Shoujo is very familiar for a weeb.I also liked the factions in Luminary, while the world feels kinda static in CC, it would be more interesting if there were specific sects and/or named antagonists but it's 'government', 'DIMA' and bandits.I usually don't care for companions, but I think they're better in CC. But as my build is agnostic for their existence, they're just 'there' for me.I have mixed feeling about powers/methods: there was more possibilities for synergy in Luminary while I think they're more limited in interaction in CC—they're more flesehed out, sure, but you can't toy with them as much I think.All in all, CC is not bad (any cyoa that manages to make me post a build is at least good in my eyes), I just didn't find it as fun.
>>96827606Just Tok being Tok. It was also just allowed to exist last time, so I don't know what happened now.

>>96825950I'm using diagrams dot net.
>>96823758Why does the "From Torpor" start take away your sire too? What if I want to also have a sire? What if we woke up at the same time?
>>96826235>obtain immortality through the regular magic version of VicissitudeCan't you just make an immortal body with Vicissitude and then abandon immortality?
>>96827983>abandon immortality*abandon vampirism
>>96827983>cure vampirism with vampire magic
>>96827998Huh? Is the Path of Golconda vampire magic?
>>96827992Not an expert on the lore but it seems pretty clear that vampirism in this setting is tied to your soul, so body hopping would not do much.
>>96828005I meant make your body "naturally" immortal and then use the Path to Golconda to abandon vampirism.
I wish there was an extremely simplified tool to make cyoas, kinda like canva is for video editing. I have many ideas I would to work on but I don't have the time nor the energy to spend learning image editing from scratch
>>96828024cyoa studio
>>96828024Oh there are. They just all look like shit.
>>96828012Trying to swindle GodDo you happen to wear a very small hat?
>>96828033
>>96828024You want diagrams.net with its drag and drop text box features.
>>96827983No, Tzimisce himself has tried that but it doesn't work. He's a city-sized lump of flesh and in many ways has 'transcended' being a mere vampire, but he's still subject to their specific curses in spite of that.
>>96828033God in oWoD is an evil Celestine and not all-powerful anyway.
>>96828038I forgot to >greentext the first sentence, forgive me, senpai
>>96828038Small hat means jewishHe is referencing all the bits in jewish folklore where they trick god into persecuting a chicken instead of them (And similar tricks)(Apparently god knows that they are bullshitting but he finds it funny so he doesn't send them to hell for the crimes they have commited)
>>96828040Why would one deliberately turn themselves into that and get stuck underground permanently like a retard?
>>96828053He picked up that autism fleshwarpers sometimes get where get obsessed with absorbing minds into a kind of overmind and is now mostly concerned with giving that 'gift' to everyone rather than trying to maintain a discrete form.
>>96828012The question is really whether you can fleshwarp something into being immortal, and the answer is yes. Vampirism and Golconda don't matter in so far as the immortality granting goes. Doing so would just be redundant while you are still a vampire.
>>96828084Isn't part of reaching Golconda giving up everything you have as a vamp? I think the idea of becoming a mage is more tangible because the enlightenment you get from Golconda might actually bring you close to the mindset you need to be a mage.

I can get waifus later on, for now I am a roaming death machine training and doing good deeds like some kind of toxic dragon goku. I have every advantage in combat against people alongside overwhelming power, and extreme variability in poison techniques, it would take someone far above my level to bring me low, but I don't think it will be a problem on earth and by the time I leave I will be high enough that I can mostly do whatever.
It's possible to experience advantages of mortal flesh without truly overcoming your condition. For example Possession (Dominate 5) + Power Over Life (The Path of Conjuring 5) for guilt free body to possess, you can even keep access to your mental and mystical Disciplines if you are skilled enough. It's not cheap or easy, but it's not even Elder-tier bullshit (less of an issue in the cyoa)
>>96828103>I think the idea of becoming a mage is more tangible because the enlightenment you get from Golconda might actually bring you close to the mindset you need to be a mage.Or you can just go straight to Heaven without any of that Wraith business, sparing yourself any more misery that the World of Darkness can bring.
>>96824803>>96812423Finally finished my build. Didn't change as much as I thought I would. Gonna let List Anon name me.Tried to go for max friends without abusing drawbacks and a general lucky adventurer vibe.Methods:>Fated Shot Doctrine>Prismatic Radiance ManuscriptI'm a sucker for the 'bed luck in your favour' options and I feel like these two work well together.

Updated build to have a few more disciplines, couldn’t afford to increase them however. They’re all quite useful, especially Obfuscate. A little combat-oriented than might be needed, but more so for self-defense and intimidation purposes than anything. As a fledgeling low-gen, it very well might quite necessary. Abilities and attribute were chosen to complement my sires. Curses are a lot, but the core weaknesses have been lessened somewhat. The Banu Haqim bane is quite the annoyance, but not so bad compared to most, and if I’m feeding on the deserving then its not so much of a loss if an exsanguinating frenzy occurs. Outside of this: I am unable to be recorded, very tasty to other vampires and my beast is, well, beastly.[1/3]

Contacts are just who I like; I have always enjoyed the Tzimisce & Malkavians, and the Salubri should teach me Valeren if I assist him in exacting his vengeance. A couple of the Dark Gifts might have something to do with my sire’s acquisition of Obtenebration. I don’t know how she managed to bind a Lasombra methuselah’s soul to its skull after she drained it dry, and I’m not sure I want to. My sire also maintains an old property within the Carpathian Mountains, and the ancient library within it, which I’ve been graciously provided. Aside from the painting vampire the Chronicles aren’t of much interest, whose heartsblood I will store away instead of diablerizing, as I could eventually trade that away. I can rely on my sire for support during my early nights. I have no idea how sects work in antiquity, so I’ll just say that it means my sire is an active part of her clan.I do find starting off with so many dots in disciplines to be a little immersion-breaking, but it's not that bad. Antiquity does make it hard to imagine how some of there build translates.[2/3]

She Embraced me after She clearly focused on mastering a wide selection of disciplines, and has the skills & attributes you’d expect a methuselah of this calibre to have. She’s a master schemer & social genius, and most likely only uses Presence sparingly, not that she needs it. Aside from that, she’s an Elysium owner, as well as probably incredibly terrifying in-person. For whatever reason she’s been suspected of diablerie she did not commit, which has made her unpopular, but I suspect my Embrace is to some degree a part of solving that issue… somehow. Or perhaps its in service of deeper machinations. The only real downside is her controlling behaviour, but that’s manageable.[3/3]

Vicissitude isn't really a combat discipline, right?
>>96829308
>>96829311
>>96829312
>>96823758Wait, why do Caitiff have to gain a curse? Isn't the whole point of them not have one?
>>96824803Did Rake ever mention how weak our current Method options compared to the top tier Method of the Three Thousand Worlds? The mentor ring says there are methods beyond the player comprehension so if they leave Earth and travel to the Immortal Realms, won't they job to cultivators with much better method there? It's a trope that weaker Methods heavily limit progression in later stages. So everyone who doesn't pick mentor ring for the top tier Method will be stalled eventually when they try reaching Stage 11+
>>96829421It is stated that they are all high class and that none of them will leave any harmful marks on your foundations. So while the mentor should offer better methods, the only thing that seems to slow the player down, is the need to develop them such as through the Innovative Blessing or find a method for higher stages. Also it doesn't say they are beyond the player comprehension, it says you need to gain enough comprehension first, as though you need to progress to some extent through your methods before you can move onto the ones the mentor can offer.
>>96829421you're confusing quality with stagewe start with high quality starter methods that aren't suitable for higher stages
>>96829468we also get the methods blasted into our heads for free instantly and in a pristine state, which isn't the case if you're going to try learning them from somewhere else, even a great source like the mentor
Rolled 1 (1d3)>>96829403Please don't be furry
>>96829551>starter methodsAre you sure? One of xianxia main gimmick is that the protag always get an ancient hidden broken method which allows them to overpower everyone else. I never heard of the starter method concept or swapping methods being a good thing
>>96829333Sylen said you're allowed to not take the curse if you also don't take the free affinities.
>>96829584yes, it's pretty clear that's what's going on from the blurb, your methods are all good and you know them so perfectly they'll be great for you in particular, but they're only useful up until like stage 9 or 10, then you need to get new ones for the next whatever number of stagesthis is why i think the 9 listed stages are really just the first major realm in xianxia terms, this is qi gathering and next you go to foundation establishment, though the scale is pretty different than usual in xianxia, and the cyoa calls the first 9 stages the foundational stages, so you might consider them a molding of the classic qi gathering and foundation establishment realmsat least sort of, i kind of doubt explicit golden core and nascent soul analogues are coming next, but there are visible parallels regardless
Are the treasures you get from Lost Legacy already inside the pocket dimension you get from it? Or is someone who has LL basically forced to also take the pocket dimension?
>>96829606it's probably intended, but it wouldn't really be a problem if you declare it works differently for you
>>96829584Ignoring whatever bullshit comes up in other xianxia, the only thing Rake wanted to tell is that your starting methods aren't the limit of your cultivation. They will work perfectly well until you reach their cap around stage ten and then take a more advanced method that might as well be a continuation of the ones you were using, once you travel to other worlds or develop them on your own. Mentor Ring even says that you can only move on to the better methods once you have enough understanding to do it.
>>96829613yeah, just because you need to use higher stage methods once you're stage 10+ doesn't mean those methods would be useful to you when you're stage 1-9
>>96829584It's not universal, but in most Xianxia stories you have a method for the first realm, then you get a new method for the second realm, then you get a new method for the third realm, etc. >>96829613You aren't guaranteed to find a continuation method. You could just end up needing to swap to a somwhat different method. If a continuation method is what you want, your best bet is the innovative blessing and making it yourself. Even the mentor isn't going to be able to give you a bespoke method.
>>96829584Depends on the story, some have methods that only last for so many realms. One series I like has had the mc have to steal, trade, and seek out methods several times. He was actually really disappointed for a while that he had to use orthodox methods, because they wouldn't be compatible with changing his spiritual root to ones he stole from his enemies.
>>96829606The pocket dimension from the treasure section and the one from LL are described quite differently. The treasure stops time inside, while LL's has it accelerated.
>>96829653the LL one is a little world with its own RE flows and everything, it's a completely different thing
>>96829606wait, did you mean you're assuming LL is talking about the treasure section's pocket dimension? fuck no, those two choices have nothing to do with each other
>>96829403Gender 2: Tank. Aesthetics are secondary to functionality and performance.
>>96829653>>96829664I was asking if all or the treasures you get from LL were already inside the pocket dimension you get from it. Because if they aren't, then you kinda need the Pocket Dimension from the treasures section just for the logistics.
>>96829791why?
>>96829584Dont take me tap the sign.
>>96829791i'm really having trouble figuring out what the fuck you're even asking and since you aren't answering i'll just explain in generalboth of them are xianxia storage treasures which means that you can just wave your hand and teleport uncontested things in your vicinity in or out of them at will, among other useful features like being able to sense their contents from outside without needing to open themthe treasure pocket dimension is tied to the ring on your finger so its entrance is always with youthe LL pocket world is tied to your soul or something else in a non-physical manner so its entrance is always with you
>>96829824what sign? This isn't /pol/
>>96829865he probably meant the tg sign, not the pol sign
>>96829791They may not start in the palace, it's never directly stated even if it's the logical assumption, but what is stated is that they start in "storage treasures" so transporing them is not going to be that difficult. Strorage treasures are usually stuff like rings/necklaces or small boxes, if they are as high quality as the rest of the stuff in LL then they should hold a lot of stuff. So you don't get a dimension and a mountain of artifacts that you need to slowly move in there, you get maybe 4-5 small boxes or something, probably divided by resource/type if the old guy was organized or just filled with random shit like the average minecraft base.
>>96829865It's either "have you tried not playing DnD" or "it depends on the setting". Which one do you think makes more sense in this context?
>>96829877i doubt it's boxes or bags, that's low quality crap for low-stage cultivators, it's probably in all sorts of jewelry instead
>>96829865>>96829869>>96829878Someone made a meme that says "CC is not just like your chinese webcomics, it's a setting on its own" or something along those lines.
>>96829888Oh, that schizo. He's wrong and can't tell he's wrong because he's genre-illiterate. Don't worry about him.

>>96829907Rake's the one who uses those genre conventions to communicate, so nope. Some guy just seethes that everyone other than him knows what's going on, but he doesn't care enough to actually figure it out.
>>96829885It could be a wide range of storage treasures form low level bags that hold little more than a person can carry, to rings that could easily store several warehouses, or even beads that can store mountains. It probably doesn't have anything like the pocket dimension that is effectively infinite, unless you get the pocket dimension from it.
>>96829853>both of them are xianxia storage treasures which means that you can just wave your hand and teleport uncontested things in your vicinity in or out of them at will, among other useful features like being able to sense their contents from outside without needing to open themEven ignoring the xianxia part that's usually how any kind of inventory works in general so even the guy that says CC isn't xianxia has to shut up about it.>>96829885Probably, the main worry is just if they are orderly or not, since high quality storage has convenience built in it could be a mess because the old guy knew what was in there but you don't, so maybe reordering them when you have more time would be a good idea. I know that my storage would be a mess if I was at that level.
>>96829925the more important part is that those storage treasures are probably doubling as other artifacts as well, like an amulet storage treasure that also produces a personal shield
>>96829820Because it's a fuckload of treasure that you need to drag around? Considering the sheer scale of it you could spend weeks just moving shit into your LL castle >>96829853Thank you, that clarified it. Nothing on the LL option outright states that all of your shit was inside the castle dimension. I could deduce that it was the case but I wanted confirmation.>>96829877This is effectively the same thing as having it inside LL dimension. Just slightly more inconvenient but you can just that stuff and deposit inside the dimension without an issue.
it would be pretty funny if you had to carry boxes for the first three months to make use of LLa good time to meditate on your internal drawbacks like pseudo-fallen and possessed, not really an issue
>>96829993It's a massive issue, actually. You could spend that time inside your LL cultivating so you don't get killed by a stray bullet the second you step outside the bunker.
>>96830009i mean you could still do that, it's not like anything important will change if you exit five years later, even the companions are just fated to meet you either way
>>96829993Even if the LL pocket world didn't count as a storage treasure you could just find another storage ring and suck all the boxes into it
Reminder to everyone that if you don't take machine transendence you will job. Technology is superior to cultivation up to stage 6 and after that it is equal. So u less you want to die to random bandit with gun you must take machine transcendence.
>>96830015Giving a massive headstart to the people of the world is a problem, anon. It means that there will be more stage 9 psychos running around fucking shit up.
>>96830049>gets mindfucked by akashic>gets soulraped by celestialYeah, no thanks, fag
>>96830049nah, nobody's getting to 9 in a long time, at worst you could assume something like incursion and nemesis would cause problems to kick you out of there, but since you're presumably in your pocket world they can't do that
>>96830044>Technology is superior to cultivation up to stage 6This is the main thing selling me on going for the machine/transcribe/forge trio, all three have shown feats of allowing people to punch above their weight class in exchange for being material hungry.
>>96829403If there's ever a transhuman cyberpunk future, then all meaningful human interaction will move to the Internet. This means, realistically everyone would in time transfer to 2, me as well. You can have popstar and furry chimera avatars on the internet just fine, no reason to cripple your irl capabilities because of it.
>>96830070he's shitposting, all methods are roughly equal, machine has the benefit of flexible and diverse techniques and also being body refining, making it basically the same as talismanic for example
>>96830049Nta but that's arguable. Stage 8 at most, even you with your special stuff need some sort of event to get to stage 9-10 because earth just doesn't have enough RE density. Most people on earrth don't even have a method so they are limited to the basic scale, and that is inherently worse than any method. So it's a problem, but not that big of a problem.
>>96830088The DIMA guys are the only ones likely to get to stage 9 if they're willing to take some risks
>>96830096not in five years, maybe in five centuries
>>96830088Where does it say RE 9-10 is hard for us on Earth?
>>96830102They might already have a stage 8 cultivator so who knows Rake wasn't really clear how fast cultivation is
>>96830096Not exactly, there are stragglers from other worlds and spirits, those can also grow, but as this >>96830102 points out the timescales don't match. Maybe it's not centuries, but 5 years doesn't seem a big deal in the timescale of cultivation, unless you are MC level like the player or similar stuff. Also remember, 5 years for them is 50 years for us in LL.
>>96830070Machine jobs to every single method in their own field and it massively jobs to forge in it's own field. You need to face reality, it kinda fucking sucks.
>>96830115Stage 9 is achievable anywhere on earth but for stage 10+ you will need dense RE pockets. 1 page stage section Re-10+ description
>>96830121it generally corresponds to lifespans for average cultivators or else the entire scarcity model doesn't work outso you can bet that the most average cultivator out there is basically spending 90 or 95 percent of his potential life span before breaking through to the next stage, and since stage 9 is like a thousand years (i think?) you can fairly reasonably assume that the average mediocre cultivator would only be able to get there when 900 years old, while a more talented one could still take 300 to 600 years
>>96829892>>96829920
>>96830142Nice try heavenly court, true techGODS are immune to your gaslighting
>>96830115The intro blurb that describes the basic stages for those without a method, stage 9-10 says that there is not enough ambient RE on earth to support people getting there, unless you find some special concentration of it like a portal storm or other event. The event section lists several of these high concentration spots but they are not common and need to be actually found/searched for, so most people will hit a bottleneck at 8 and not even know why they can't grow.
>>96830161not exactly a bottleneck since that's a specific term that means something else, but yeah
>>96830142You don't really take it for fighting you take it for tech creation which has a fuckton of utility as you can just create sci-fi shit. From some fancy home appliances, machinery for your factories or plasma guns and power armor for your peasant army
>>96830175no, you take it for both, it's body refining, it makes your body stronger passively
>>96830165I remembered after posting that bottleneck has a very specific meaning in xianxia/cultivation, but the general concept remains. Earth is a backwater plane and we should be getting out of there as soon as we hit stage 9-10 or become immortal if we want to get any stronger. Or neetmax and use a couple combination of treasures and GIs to ignore that limitation, but if there is something this cyoa does well it's feedom, you have options. Ascending earth should also be possible with the right methods/treasure/GI combo, if you want to do that for some reason, but that would probably cause another cataclysm if you don't prepare really well.
>>96830182Well yeah but it doesn't seem fully combat oriented still your pretty much a superhuman borg but the description doesn't give super combat oriented powers but the same can be said about the forge method. But in the end it doesn't matter much as the battles are mostly who has bigger RE number or more hax
>>96830161It says there is no other RE9 on Earth, not that it is impossible. I assume it would be easy for the player, provided they have enough RE. Another reason why Lost Legacy is broken
>>96830197>Ascending earth should also be possibleThis probably gets 90% of the remaining survivors killed if you don't spread some methods around, bare minimum
>>96830208>super combat oriented powersThat's whatever tech/artifacts you can absorb, so if you take either without Auxiliary master then you're begging to lose.
>>96830197>>96830212There is probably also the option to direct large amounts of the RE on earth to a smaller area, where higher stages would be possible. However doing so is probably more difficult and resource intensive than just going to another world.
>>96830197it's actually kind of vague in xianxia in general, this cyoa uses it as a specific termi agreed on what you were saying, i just didn't want you to confuse someone who was clearly already struggling with the concepts>>96830208it kind of depends on what you use your cybernetics for, even if in principle you can be a swiss army knife of tools you can also just make yourself fully combat-focused instead>>96830210it's especially not impossible with shit like LL and the market, in principle you could stay on earth forever and just keep cultivating up stages, it's just going to be slower than if you went out and fought for your gains unless you're using a market jew build of some sort i guess>>96830212it might be a worse tribulation than usual to go from 9 to 10, but not necessarily
for the last fucking time, CRAFTING IS COMBAT
>>96830212The problem only happens if you do this stuff in a very quick manner just slowly raise the ambient RE levels over the span of centuries
>>96830228In xianxia, everything is combat. Even painting/music stuff is combat. It all depends on whether you have a technique to make it work
>>96830228Crafting is the backbone of combat. It is separate and far more important than its object of creation’s application. The barrel of a shotgun is first forged by the smithy.
>>96830228Crafting is for women.

>>96830253Jobs to even the weakest weapon user at the same stage
>>96830212Something like that yes. That's why I said if you don't prepare carefully.>>96830221There is a treasusre that does exactly that, and LL may have similar stuf in it.>>96830222I get it, it's difficult to be understood sometimes when the medium uses terms that have a different meaning normally.>>96830231That's probably the safest bet. Or you could try to rally the survivors and prepare them for a faster ascension, but that would be more difficult and unreliable.
>>96830256Elves are crafters. You have dainty crafter hands.
>>96830260nah, they're pretty much equivalent, RE is neat that way
>>96830252>Do all that>Explode because your body was not ready.
>>96830228Well not necessarily it can be used for combat but not all crafting is for combat it can be used for other utility purposes. I am just saying that a method fully focused on fighting is probably better at fighting at straight up fighting than a more broader method, but that doesn't mean a broader method can't win against such method if the tools are properly utilized.
>>96830271A common occurrence sadly.
>>96830253I subdue the naked vagrant with my slave collar trap (crafted) and place him into my blood/RE farm (crafted) pocket dimension (crafted) where he will be tortured for eternity to fuel my cultivation.

>>96830269But the weapon user would get extra RE power from their weapons, armor and artifacts
>>96830288Are you the same guy who was seething about sci-fi technology having RE in it? You have the same way of making yourself seem wrong no matter what you're saying by yelling like a retard instead of trying to communicate a point.

>>96830256>he doesn't know what kind of hands do the crafting
>>96830312that's talking about giving yourself cancer with the wrong type of energy, not that you can eat the universe in a single gulp at stage 1
>I didn't take auxiliary master, so I'm sure to win!
>>96830266>>96830322I didn't know blacksmiths had dainty handsLearn something new every day
>>96830289Yes if you fully focus on combat than yes, you will be pretty much the same combat capability as other combat method. What I mostly mean that a combat focused method forces their user to do combat so they must partake in combat to progress while a broader method would allow a user to branch out. So it's mostly just comparing the average users of these methods. But in the end it matters little as RE number is the real indicator of power.
>>96830327bad post, i can't tell what side you're trying to be on
>>96830324>if you eat something too powerful, you will explode!!!!Source: anon's headcanon
If I create a method that let's my Guardian use my blessings, is it a good limitation that I lose acess to them while he uses them?
>>96830333>RE number is the real indicator of power.>He can't cross stagesHand in your protagonist credentials right now, all the other xianxia protags are ashamed of you
This whole discussion reminds me of the one manwha where the protagonist has to eat the horns of boss mosnters to get special skills. It takes weeks because the horns are massive.
>>96830337no, that was the other guy, what i imagine happens is you get a special power from the heart but not that much cultivation
>>96830332Let me look at those hands anon.... hmmm...yes...you'd make a FINE potentate.
>>96830344Personally I would just use Mastermind to do that.
>>96830344i wouldn't put that limitation there since the guardian is you already in the first place, if you're putting in the work to make a whole method around that then you should just get full benefitsnot that those benefits are as huge as they could be, since this is your guardian we're talking about, it doesn't need most of your blessings
It's a common misconception that crafting increases combat strength. You can't create pills that raise your cultivation, or weapons, or talismans, or arrays to be used in cultivation or combat. Rake mistyped the description of treasures. They cannot increase combat strength, so please ignore them.
>>96830345Oh.. I interpret RE number differently than stages, as you can have hax that improve your RE number higher than your stage actually is, most of the protagonist just have these hax that boost up their power level higher than their stage
>>96830352Also nta, but I would guess you get raw stats but not much cultivation progress. Maybe some skills or other stuff if they had them. Devourer doesn't really say it helps cultivation directly, it's like being able to raise your stats without raising your level in an RPG.

>>96830360anon i'm pretty sure you're talking to people who are treating crafting things for combat and crafting things in general as two different things
>>96826180Its as stated. Additional.>>96826653Flip the coin anon. But I wont tell you if heads or tails means they are diablerist or not.>>96826957Its meant to be Deep Torpor.>>96827974It feels somewhat too powerful?>>96829333I forgot to revise, you can also opt for no affinities and no curse.>>96826645Yes. I hate fun. In fact, I make CYOA to spite you and keep you inching just centimeters from "fun", close enough to smell it, but always just out of reach.>>96826538I thought it would be too powerful, its as simple as that. Why wouldn't you pick both if you had the option and wanted a powerful sire? Why have choices at all then?
>>96830378>people who are treating crafting things for combat and crafting things in general as two different thingsWhat do they think crafting is for? Making furniture or something?
>>96830391what, you're saying that it's impossible to make furniture with crafting? or are you saying that making non-combat things is worthless to the point it never even crossed your mind?
Meng Hao walked into the McDonald's. The cultivator taking his order gave a derisive snort, but Meng Hao did not really care, because he had repressed his aura down to the Single Patty Realm, and a fool would not be able to tell his true level of burger eating."Give me... a Happy Meal!"The cultivator's face flickered before he finally regained his composure and laughed. "You couldn't afford a Happy Meal. Get lost! Don't you see that there are Double Quarter Pounder Realm eaters waiting behind you?"Meng Hao slapped his bag of holding and threw 80 billion spirit McDonald's coupons onto the counter, causing an earthquake which demolished half of the restaurant. Everyone dropped their jaws. None could see how this was possible!"I'll take that Happy Meal with a side order of fries, " Meng Hao said. He was as calm as the ocean in a painting of an insanely calm ocean. "And let me see your manager!"The cashier cultivator coughed up a mouthful of ketchup. He simply could not handle Meng Hao's killing intent, because he was only at the Quarter Pounder with Cheese realm himself. Even though Meng Hao had suppressed his aura, because he had cultivated the Heavenly Burgin' Qi, this was enough to kill people a few levels higher if he truly wanted.It was then that another man which a much more fierce aura stepped forward. "You dare make trouble here?""P... Patriarch Hamburglar!"Patriarch Hamburglar was 99 cents of the way into the Big Mac Realm, plus tax! Meng Hao was pushed back two feet, knocking over a soda machine. Powerade Mountain Berry Blast geysered outward, killing several onlookers.Of course, Mayor McCheese saw all this happen through the window.Meng Hao coughed up a mouthful of blood, snorted, constricted his pupils, and then his expression went calm. He unleashed the aura of 64 patties, condensed down to a 2 patty stack that could fit into his mouth!
>>96830354Is that right, coz?
>>96830391Who's gonna stop me from using the machine method to create a more powerful gaming PC
>>96830399Mayor McCheese coughed up a mouthful of cheese. His pupils constricted."Is this... Seeking the McRib stage??"Meng Hao had the gentle air of a scholar, but it wouldn't stop him from killing several people in a McDonald's."Burger Devouring Scripture! I'm Lovin' It!"With the first keyword of the Burger Devouring Scripture, everyone below the early Quarter Pounder With Cheese stage exploded into purple mist. The light of the immense heavenly burger shone down with the contours of a golden arch as 9 illusory burgers floated around Meng Hao's body, which is probably an important xianxia number that matches the number of lakes in some sacred Chinese province I've never heard of. But that was only a fraction of Meng Hao's power. He waved his arm, bringing forth thirty more cultivation techniques that hadn't appeared in over 400 chapters!"Heavenly Tribulation Fries! Eastern Everburning Egg McMuffin! Fruit Smoothie Guillotine! Soul McCafe Mocha Incarnation!"Meng Hao's expression was the same as ever as he slapped his bag of holding, and brought out his karmic ketchup packet, Fry Cook Lord medallion, seventeen different wooden time spatulas, a five-coloured resurrection coupon, the silk burger wrapper, various souls of lightning McNuggets that he may or may not still have, and his mask of the legacy of Ronald McDonald. Oh, and the image of a flying Chicken Snack Wrap dragon appeared. Remember that? It was basically his Main Thing at the start of the novel, but quietly faded into irrelevance. Until now!All of this takes some time to describe, but actually happened in the space of only a few breaths."What! Impossible!"
>>96830395I'm always amazed at how well you guys can manage to misunderstand and talk past each other
>>96830399at least put the effort in to adapt it for CC
>>96830391Its for making nice things for your husband.
>>96830405Meng Hao wanted to summon the parrot as well, but it was too overcome with eroticism by the purple fur depicted on a nearby poster of Grimace, and was busy drilling out a glory hole straight through the poster, and the wall it was pinned to, with its strong parrot erection.But it was more than enough. The Hamburglar's soul flew out and was absorbed into his mask! He screamed as his body was destroyed completely.Meng Hao brushed off his robe and swept up his spirit coupons and everyone's bags of holding which probably didn't have any cool sh*t inside unless I write him into a corner later, and anyways, don't worry about it for now. He surveyed the rubble that was all that remained of the McDonald's."Guess I'll be taking that Happy Meal... to go!"
>>96830403that's not even a joke, literally everyone who takes machine transcendence would just give themselves a cybernetic pc with internet access as their like second project
>>96830389>Yes. I hate fun.You can tell.>It feels somewhat too powerful?>I thought it would be too powerfulNot only it gets in the way of fun, it also makes no sense. Both of those things have drawbacks already tied to them, and no reason to be mutually exclusive, in fact it makes more sense for them to go toghether. There are tons of reaosons to not pick both, theme, the point costs, limited picks, the rest of the build, realitionship with the sire. This is the same as all the curses that are worse than in the tabletop, makes no sense and is an arbitrary restriction to fun. You already have to pay for them, and the price is already steep, there is no reason to limit them further.
>>96830403>>96830416the internet is gone niggait's a zombie apocalypse
>>96830420>he thinks "the internet is gone" is an insurmountable obstacle to someone who took machine transcendencesee this is what happens when you assume you're only going to craft weapons and shields
>>96830416Machinejeets will wire an iPhone with Chatgpt directly into there brains.
>>96830420You just need to rebuild the internet that's why you even take the machine method
>anon's only goal as the main character in a xianxia world is to get a better gaming pc for his Lost Legacy neetcaveI shouldn't have expected more
>>96830436>>96830420It's probably not entirely down. Maybe intercontinentally, but local networks would still be up for sure.
>>96830356I thought about that and considered a bit too strong, but I've just reread mastermind and it seems to be really in line with what it offers. So I guess I can make a method more to my tastes now.>>96830359It doesn't need them, but I think it can really benefit from the combat focused ones. If you combine all the combat blessings it essentially allows you to punch way above your weight and use battles as fuel for your growth. It can be really strong.
>>96830440Heh... I have a better gaming PC than the stage 56 elder
>>96830448But anon, the elder doesn't even have a PC.
>>96824803Remember to glaze the CCP so the heavenly court doesn't cancel your adventure
>>96830440It's actually hilarious how every cyoa has at least a couple of anons who use the fantasy of being granted incredible magic powers to just hide in their goon cave.
>>96830389>It feels somewhat too powerful?It's not, it's just a strange limitation. It should be optional, since your sire could be still around but have forgotten you or was just waiting for your return, they may even be the one that brought you back, it opens all sorts of better narratives. Also the fact you don't have a sire doesn't mean they never existed, so skipping the section is very strange, it still affects you.
>>96830458why do you think LL + crafting is so good? you can just craft at home
>>96830448Junior, you dare? Supreme elder xx1337h4x0r96xx is at 5090 peak stage! He has over 300 confirmed kills! Kowtow, cripple your cultivation, and surrender your gaming PC, then you might be left with an intact corpse.
>>96830419I dont understand why you single out this. I disagree. I also think the comparison to tabletop is superfluous, as no storyteller in their right mind would allow you to have access to the kind of stuff that the CYOA allows you and the sourcebooks do not in fact allow access to it. So that is a plain lie. The curses being worse than in tabletop is also a plain lie. Most of them were made less worse or are equal carbon copies, except here, you might get a powerful boon or straight up +3 blood to become even more powerful. Either you didn't read, or are trolling.
>>96830467Neets never actually do anything productive with their time though. Thats the rub
If someone is complaining about not being allowed to be "more powerful" its probably balanced well.
>>96830473they can take iron will for that
>>96830458>just hide in their goon caveIt's better for everyone that way.
>>96830477So Nexus Gateway is the best balanced cyoa to drop since 2020?
>>96830465Was it lost in translation that you unlock the power of your Sire? The options DIRECTLY make you (not just your sire) more powerful. So saying it only affects your sire is just not true at all.
>>96830470I had an ST that allowed even more. It was a wild full oWoD crossover.
>>96830480They will use their iron will to goon harder.
>be able to absolutely SHIT on vtm lore and spawn in as a GODLY vampire>its somehow still not powerful enough for /cyoag/ anonslmaolol even
>>96830481Like if you had the choice between having a NEET cultivator in your world or a murderhobo demonic cultivator who would you choose?
>he thinks life isn’t crafted by evolution It’s crafting all the way up and down
Rolled 1, 2 = 3 (2d2)>>96830498Both and they're a1. Dude2. Girlfirst is for NEET, second is for murderhobo
>>96830491Sounds horribly boring, not gonna lie.
>>96830531Yeah, I had other people who didn't play that game also say that. It was pretty amazing though. The ST knew what he was doing.
>>96830490>Was it lost in translation that you unlock the power of your Sire?You skip the sire section, so you don't get anything in there. That's what skipping means. Many of the things in that section would affect you even if the sire is not in the picture anymore because they are tied to blood not presence. If your sire had more disciplines you would still get them by blood like the rest, you just don't have a teacher anymore. Skipping the section is a massive drawback with no logical reason that is absolutely not worth 10 blood and some change in the torpor option and nothing in the no sire option.
>>96830470>The curses being worse than in tabletop is also a plain lieThe fuck!? Are you blind, or something?>>96825948>>96826764
>>96830579I dont even know what you are talking about now. Why would you skip the sire section? Why does it matter if you picked Powerful for your sire if you are skipping the sire section?
>>96830470>sourcebooks do not in fact allow access to itExamples?
>>96830651That lies on you as the one making the critique. Not my job.
>>96830659So you talking out of your ass, noted.
>>96830597Disciplines in VTM are stated not to work under the sun and fire damage is variable and stated to take months to years based on severity. You aren't exactly pointing out any /worse/ interpretations, just equivalent to tabletop.
>>96830672>Disciplines in VTM are stated not to work under the sunCitation needed.
>>96830671Are you talking about yourself now? I'm not going to look up a sourcebook just to stroke your ego. Your critique is duly note and discarded as what you are critiquing is by design and I otherwise just disagree. Simple as.
>>96830672>Disciplines in VTM are stated not to work under the sunUnless it's something introduced in 5e, false.
>>96830686>>96830702Wrong. Only select disciplines have very special cited dot powers to work under the sun which is Bardo and Fortitude. If all Disciplines worked under the sun, then why did the Authors feel special need to specifically cite that only these very specific powers can be used under the sun?
>>96830689That means you can't back up your words.>sourcebooks do not in fact allow access to itNot surprising, I suppose.
>>96830713You defaulted to insults from the start. Why entertain it with anything of substantial value? Not going to reply further, anon. If you were actually serious, try harder next time.
>>96830712Again, citation needed.
>>96830725I accept your concession, bitch.
>>96830726You get this single one. Not going to waste more time on this. Its from the V20 book, that i happen to have on hand.
>>96830742Are you retarded? It's about damage from sunlight, not about discipline usage.
>>96830762(me)And there are at least two powers that do similar things, btw.
>>96830647You skip the sire section in two instances, "curse of the sire" and "from torpor" Unnatural Embrace options. In both cases even if you "skip" the secton some of the things inside it would still affect you if picked. Poweful and Scholastic are part of the Blood of your sire, unlike Knowledgable where they can't use the discipline, so you would get the disciplines from powerful and scholastic from drinking the blood as part of the embrace like the common ones you get in some of the options like ancient. If the sire is dead or gone after doesn't matter, you already darnk the blood when you were embraced, you have those disciplines.
>>96830762Nice insult anon. Feeling insecure much? >>96830773Did I ever say that was the only power? Fortitude is also cited usable under the sun. As well as that dot power that allows melding with the environment.
What will jobbers in this thread do when I take machine transcendence and make missles or nukes killing all of them at stage 4 considering immunity to explosives comes only at stage 9?
>>96830832And here I thought I was missing something. But no, you're just a clueless bitch. Still no example of discipline not working under the sun.
>>96830862Is anon going to cry now?
>>96829625>Even the mentor isn't going to be able to give you a bespoke method.The mentor description was updated to say that his superior methods are eerily similar to ours.
>>96830847Parry
>>96830847that's only passive immunity for someone who doesn't even have any body refininga body refiner would resist them much earlier, and anyone using a technique would do so even more easily
>>96830256If that was a dig at my new build, it's way off base. Outsourcing to Yesod isn't the same thing as not valuing crafting. I LOVE crafting.
>>96829605>i kind of doubt explicit golden coreThe peak of Machine Transcendence has you create a Golden Reactor core.
>>96830919i know but that's not the same thing in either placement or its own fluff
>>96830847It's not multiplayer. Their is only ONE DIMA Frankenstein running around. It's fun to compare and contrast builds though.
>>96830847fated shot + nuke is a sure kill on almost anyone on earth
>>96830901Don't even try pretending you little shit, I know EXACTLY what all of you faggots who want to be male elves are like.
>>96830933sorry, your nuke didn't have enough RE in it and it didn't affect any of the cultivators in the areayou killed all of the mortals though i guess?
>>96830939Okay but I don't think crafting is girly.
>>96830742>>96830832>still no proof to back up his wordsNot surprising.
