Next verse, same as the first
https://imgchest.com/p/na7konjjwy8

I want to run a couple experiments, would anons mind making builds to see if they balance things better?
>Experiment 1: Talent Discount
Making a builds where your talent rating in one aura type provides a discount. This is to make basic techniques cheap, master techniques slightly less ecpensive, and leave legend techniques largely the same.
Compare your "G" rating to the rating required for a technique, if you G rating is higher it subtracts it's value from the point cost.
Example:
Seismic Strike costs 5 poimt to buy.
Your build has G3 in Core.
Seismic Strike only requires G1.
Seismic Strike now only costs 2 points for you.
>Experiment 2: Aura Burst Mode
Kufoku mentions you'll be able to Double your points after completing an Aura Burst campaign, so why not make builds for that?
Make a standard build for your freshly summoned conscript, then making Another build for your conscript after completing all their campaign missions.

The second build gets build and equipment points equal to their starting "Potential"(45 for talented, 35 for mutated, etc). They get no bonus alterations.

Given how the "Prodigy" alteration works,, double these bonus points points for your second build, but equipment points are not doubled

Upon learning the spirit acolyte technique and needing a spirit to bind, kofuko knew just the spirit to give to his wayward conscript. Deep in the tribelands lay a forgotten shrine housing an an old and terrible fox demon spirit. Once imprisoned at the shrine as a guardian, it grew powerful and wise on mortal worship and sacrifice, yet as time went on the people forgot about him and his visitors dwindled. Today even the beast tribes do not visit his area, and it has been several hundred years since last he had visitors. Intrigued by this new conscript and desperate to escape his prison-like home and walk the world once more, he accepted a bond of servitude as a spirit acolyte.

As a greater spirit and a bestial guardian, his abilities are primarily physical, strong, fast and wielding powerful core and phase techniques aiding in giving him terrible might and rapid speed to tear through enemies. He is also a potent wielder of the purgatorial flames, and has a plethora of minor abilities and blessings accrued over his long life, perfect for protecting his master and punishing anyone foolish enough to stand in his way.

I'm quite happy with this I think, I even came up with a description for the acolyte.

If you take heavenly instrument and apply faithful soul and resurrected to it, doesn't your "conscript" basically get access to all your techniques alongside their own?
Heavenly intrument counts as part of your body for a technique when that's benefitial for you, allowing you to use touch techniques through it and letting your passive effects empower the weapon.
With faithful soul, they now have their own techniques and aura pool on top of that. They're both you and themselves at the same time.

The post you're replying to is correct. Years ago I did the whole song and dance with this shit, just like others have: push them to use a separate general, complain, etc. I think it's reasonable, but that really doesn't matter. Nobody here is going to do something unless they're enticed to or it's the path of least resistance - which is fine! While I would prefer the Spirit Conscript people gave it a rest, none of us have any more claim here than they do

Spunds like another question to annoy PCAnon with.
It could be read that since:

Then a faithful soul using self incarnation on the seord will count as using it on You and spread the effect to your body.
Faithful soul + heavenly instrument might be fucking amazing if that's the case.

It's an interesting idea to imagine someone so directly equal to me, given the daydreaming usually has me thinking of myself as separate to the world and thusly to others
I think I would be very psychologically different if I had a twin, although there's a fair chance I would be much worse if it meant I resigned myself to poor circumstances and fully attempted to escape the world with someone else

I wish more larger cyoa's would have things like this, where someone is actually genuinely important to you, but I see how it could be difficult to do well
Build:
Age:
Young (-1)
>Let's start again, if we are to do this. It wouldn't mean much if they actually showed up yesterday so I'd hope to go back as far as I can

Appearance:
Sister (-2)
>I desire female affection. Woe is me and all. I think it would be more interesting to not have sex with her though
8/10 (-2)

Personality:
Strange (-3)
>Chuuni as fuck, but very kind on a personal level
>I like the thought of doing things you think are cool even if other people don't agree. The idea of treating fashion and asthetics as something individual feels far away and yet it should be the base state of things

Dynamics:
Twins forever (-2)

Odd powers:
>The cyoa hasn't put us in a magical world for these powers to make contextual sense, as of such, I'll chose myself:
>This is a world of yokai and espers. Most ghosts are harmless and intangible things only seen by the spiritually attuned, but some learn to feed on the psychic energies of others and can cause all manner of emotional issues in smaller cases and physical disruptions to the world in larger cases
>To combat this, secret groups of exorcists exist in every human culture to remove the malicious or harmful spirits
>A ghost with little ambition or lots of love can subsist peacefully on the passive emissions of a person.
>Ghosts don't have any physical desires, and when they run out of energy they don't die but become a part of the background noosphere

Contrasting powers:

>I have spirit sensing and telekinesis
>She has 2 second precognition and a spirit sword

Drawbacks:

I could, and it's nice that it has that story telling tool ready, but I would also like more focus on that type of thing. More structure but not too much structure

I think more cyoa's need to lean into the writing prompt area after having all the mechanical optimisations. It would be great if I could both autistically maximize my powers for a given set of plans and ideas, and I had more things to directly say about said ideas. As it stands anything you do in that area is sartre stuff

>>98818664

>>98818663
True, and since you can't form a spirit body until your heavenly instrument is destroyed, you're just kinda stuck.

>>
>>98818669
So you'd need both special and signature together in order to do anything cool.
So it basically costs 2 alteration slots just to make a single technique stronger... much balance, many good mechanic...

IDK, the great and higher martial arts start doing things that full core, phase, and flow techniques do. Dragon tantrum is basically blazing of the heart by another name, laceration touch + blade thst cleaves the world lets you replicate the rending scission conduction mode, etc.
>>
IMO the reason most people don't take a special/signiture technique is that only a few techniques are really in the range of being a good one. Most legendaries wouldn't benefit THAT much from one and conversely most of the basics are limited in scope such that empowering them would create something very narrow even if it is really powerful. Most decent possibilities are in the great range and you really have to be dedicated to whatever you pick. Limited alteration slots also mean very few weapon users would pick a weapon art if it was competing with the heavenly instrument itself (and heavenly instrument builds really need limitless meridians as well even beyond potential maxing considerations for the weapon links or even beloved name blessing).
>>
>>98818716
Anon, your examples are either one tier higher or require multiple martial arts to replicate One technique. Pure Body is an uphill battle to stay relavent.

>>98818722
Yeah, Signature Technique isn't bad it's just situational.
>>
>>98818716
Yea and regular builds can stack those things like Kikuro. Throw in the potential for legend statuses and pure bodies lack of esoteric defenses and it isn't worth it imo.
>>
>>98818721
>or require multiple martial arts to replicate One technique.
To be fair, he's reflecting a flow technique at Much lower aura cost. Flow gets screwed until you're a thousand year old master or focus on weapon techniques. instead of spells.
>>
>>98818724
What?
>>
>>98818731
It's a bit lower, but it's also weaker.
>>
>>98818726
>it's just situational
For an alteration slot, that is bad. Alteration slots are so limited and have do many fantastic alterations competing for space that "Situational" puts one at the bottom of the list.
>>
>>98818726
That's the issue anon. The rest are so much better that signature Becomes bad by comparison.
>>
>>98818736
>>98818742
Situational in the sense that it's not for every build, the same way you wouldn't take Heavenly Instrument if you aren't doing weapon stuff.
>>
>>98818736
Which is a shame because situational is basically a synonym for build specific. We don't have any really diversity in alterations at all. Between prodigy, limitless meridians, sacred fountain, and perennial lotus there is very little left to define a build. Sometimes a build will skip on one or at most two of those but overall it's just a matter of if anons try and squeeze in a heavenly instrument or something.
>>
>>98818735
>but it's also weaker
At base sure, but msrtial arts and weapon arts scale up in power if you also mundane training in athletics, acrobatics, martial arts, and weapon arts. Flow techniques don't scale off mundane training to the same extent.

flow scales harder than martial arts after you have OSI and EWA, for which you don't need to be a thousand years old, even a non-overpowered build could squeeze them in, you just add more conductions and every one of them makes you both stronger and more diverse at the same time, so while i'd say martial arts has the advantage if you only halfway focus on it, flow has the advantage if you autistically stack the same approach into the sky

Mai vs Niwamaru
>>
>>98818912
mai wins easily, niwamaru would need one of the alchemy martial arts to target durability and regeneration to be able to hurt mai
>>
>>98818928
Niwa has seismic strikes though.
>>
>>98818933
mai has the ability to automatically reduce a specific type of damage by 80%, 96%, etc., and the obvious choice there is the one that's dangerous

something like divergent lifestreams would get through it, seismic strikes wouldn't
>>
>>98818938
That only works on body damage, not soul damage.
>>
>>98818940
strike damage to the soul is still strike damage
>>
>>98818949
It specifically only deals with bodily degeneration.
>>
>>98818955
and how do you make the soul damage separate from the bodily damage?
>>
>>98818959
....It's separate by literal definition. Soul damage does not degenerate your body.
>>
>>98818962
if it comes as part of a strike it's stil strike damage
>>
>>98818963
Strike damage to the soul, which Immortal Coil won't help against because it only protects your physical body.
>>
>>98818971
i don't agree, i don't think the damage is separate
>>
>>98818973
The point is that Immortal Coil specifically only adapts your body.
>>
>>98818977
if the soul damage comes in the form of bodily attack it doesn't matter, adapting to strike damage adapts to all strike damage
>>
>>98818962
>Soul damage does not degenerate your body.
Yes it does? You can get aged from it or die from it.
>>
>>98818981
>f the soul damage comes in the form of bodily attack
Again, by definition soul damage is not a bodily attack. Seismic strikes allow you to attack the body and the soul, but they are still seperate things. You're just doing both at the same time.
>adapting to strike damage adapts to all strike damage
No, Immortal Coil adapts your physical body to getting physically slashed.
>>
>>98818990
No, your bodies lifespan and soul's lifespan are different things.
>>
post dragonfall
>>
>>98818992
attacks and damage aren't the same thing in the first place, but if a strike causes soul damage and mai is adapted against strikes then there's no reason for it to not treat strikes as a category as its adaptation
>>
>>98818999
>mai is adapted against strikes
No, Mai's BODY is adapted against strikes.
>>
>>98818994
An aged soul's lifespan being close to running out still degenerates the body and makes it grow old and frail ahead of whatever body lifespan says.

I was going to make some kind of potential-maxing build, but then I realized I probably would be too lazy to actually do any training.

>I would say that soul damage and soul manipulation are two different things. Seismic Strike and Jing Elixir, for instance, are specifically in place to prevent excessive durability and regeneration from being the most powerful mechanic in the CYOA and turning the optimal build into a human rock. Again, when in doubt the CYOA is inspired by JJK; soul damage in that series exists because there are so many characters with regeneration that soul damage eventually becomes the only way to actually hurt them.

i agree with him, that spirit acolyte is stronger than any companion, assuming you're devoting around 40 aura to it, then maybe if you removed two of the master statuses, then it would still be a very strong spirit acolyte but it would make sense

>>98819962
i'm already beyond your grasp silly
>>
>>98818080
This anon made me think, what are the craziest conduction combos you can pull with Flow?
>>
>>98819966
Signature technique makes it much stronger than normal. Its fine.
>>
>>98819968
with reified champion and medium sublimation combos you can pull off anything you decide makes sense

even some really humble things, like comboing reified champion and aura sensing together with medium sublimation, could let you directly observe the meridians of others for example, to the point where you could just point at a random non-user of aura and go "oh hey that guy has the potential for phase g3, if only he applied himself..."

>>98819973
i guess
>>
>>98819966
>assuming you're devoting around 40 aura to it
At that point it's a waste of aura. That's enough aura for a flow build to nuke the city between.
>>
>>98819978
>i guess
It takes it from a "strong spirit" to an "extremely strong spirit". Spirit acolyte is one of the best use cases for signature

>>
>>98819968
Conduction Form is overlooked why to much. It basically turns all your conduction forms into physical boosts on par with core/phase techniques on top of boosting the shit out of conduction forms for cheap. Conduction form + omnipotent syncronicity lets you maintain a medium conduction of everything for just 6 aura. If you take this with reified champion, you physical abilities get double-boosted by raw stats and whatever conceptual boosts your element is associated with. Combine further with things like coronet, superdynamic state, or conduct connection and you basically become Muscle Wizard.
>>
>>98819986
That Acolyte could give most builds a run for their money with just whats listed. I would be interested in a full or semi-full technique list you were thinking. I do agree though, spirit acolyte is a power that benefits probably the most from signature just raw super-stat boosting it.
>>
>>98820011
reified champion is the more important of the two, it's not only stronger for physical boosts, it also gets its aura cost rolled into omnipotent

>>98820018
>reified champion is the more important of the two
Anon, without conduction mode you're devoting 12 aura instead of 6 for the same conduction level.
Conduction form's biggest boosts are making medium conduction cheap and adding a level beyond max conduction for when you need to nuke something.
>>
>>98820039
i don't really consider medium relevant, my build is going to be capable of running max either way, and since we're talking about devotions under EWA it can run it all day either way

reified champion grants more comprehensive physical boosts even before you count the conceptual combos, while with conceptual combos it's unbeatable for utility

even medium sublimation doesn't create conceptual combos out of nothing like reified champion does, it only has conceptual effects if the technique it's comboing something with is already conceptual itself, otherwise it's just an elemental addition
>>
>>98819968
One thing I think people tend to overlook is that Omnipotent Synchronicity lets you combine your conductions in impossible ways and even create entirely new elements outright.
>>
>>98820065
because conductions already do that by default, it just enhances what's already there
>>
>>98820065
I can tell you why, that requires anons imagine new effects they csn't just read off the page. The discussion around signature and special technique should tell you how creative anons normally are.

A partially full list without going crazy is like:
Reconciliation of the Immortal Coil, Illumination of the Heart, Seven Immortalities of Wukong, Master Status—Unstoppable Force, Master Status—Immovable Object, Master Status—Fluctuation, Balance of the Heart, Vanish, Sense Enhancement, Sensory Cyanotype, Sense Karma, Initiate Status—Resolute Center, Initiate Status—Oscillating Motion and then a few flow abilities, specifically like Conduction Form with Purgatory Flame Conduction with a smattering of series techniques and minor abilities like Monarch of Hair to talk to foxes and wolves and such. Being an older spirit its got good skills and such, but probably no martial arts techniques as a quadrupedal form doesn't seem conducive to those and more towards raw aggression good for protecting and attacking but with very limited application outside of that. I would like to think an Oblative gesture for him would be similar to Aki's Kon from csm.

I think a legend status is obviously too strong for him, but imagine if I could somehow convince kofuko to teach him consummate self incarnation and waning lunar eon...
>>
>>98820133
It is "any melee weapon I desire", therefore I do. I could have also picked a lighsaber, stormbringer or mjolnir (or whatever else). Maybe one of those sentient swords that give you mad skills.

And this is why you define "any mundane melee weapon" or "any non-magical melee weapon".
>>
>>98820141
So that some guy doesn't whine about it?
>>
>>98820141
Unfortunately you still don't have excalibur.
>>
>>98820145
Im not whining, just pointing out it breaks the cyoa. Its like that old chaos vs order cyoa where the vampire got to be "any vampire from fiction" and could therefore pick broken metaverse comic book shit, and the juggernaut could have "any mount they want" and therefore also do that, or just make weapons that could oneshot got because the scaling examples included demonbane (the giant mecha designed to beat azathoth in a fight).

That was "gold" for oldfags? No wonder SC is winning.
>>
>>98820161
Look man, everyone else is successfully reading the CYOA. You're the only one failing at it.
>>
>>98820132
It's probably best off using the more innately versatile conductions like Twisted Flesh, you could likely make conductions out of each individual aspect of biology.
>>
>>98820132
Reified Champion + Stoic Archetect + a high damage conduction + any of the 4 "living" conductions
Example: Lusterous Explosive + Fae Spore
Your explosions are now solid living things made of "continuous explosion", that eat the material they destroy to reproduce and make more of itself.
>>
>>98820171
e.g combine Twisted Flesh with Hollow Void for bones that disintegrate whatever they pierce, or something like that.
>>
>>98820176
...That's fucking horrifying.
>>
>>98820176
Reified champion really turns everything into a game of weird-ass conceptual bullshit doesn't it?
>>
>>98820176
>>98820191
nah don't worry, this would still need extension and expansion to blow up everything everywhere, and those two techniques both cost a whole 3 points each
>>
>>98820094
if you are smart the zombies challenge can be abused to make you so much stronger, especially if you have the machete upgrades through training, letting you kill them from afar
>>
>>98820132
Combine Hadron Prism with Gamma Energy, so instead of just dispersing energy that attacks it, it converts that energy into Gamma Energy and throws it right back at the attacker.
>>
>>98820202
technically it only makes conduction boosts to your own body conceptual

there isn't any unrestrained way to make anything at all conceptual, you need to play within the bounds of your body with reified champion, and that's the closest thing there is, the second closest is medium sublimation, but that is technically only an elemental addition and only becomes conceptual if you're adding elements to some technique which is itself already conceptual, such as illumination of the heart
>>
>>98820140
Seems strong enough go take on most PC builds and come out on top against a fair amount of then but doesn't go over the top more than necessary. Seems fine to me, if you take the "empowered to the point of insanity" part literally it could be even stronger.
>>
Radiant wave is the best combo conduction because it fully boosts any other conduction or group of conductions without interfering with their theme
>>
>>98820212
Anon, reified champion is a conduction mode.
Using it with omnipotent syncronicity allows you to fuse concepts into external conductions and using it with medium sublimation lets you fuse concepts into all your techniques.
With all three active, your abilities become fucking eldritch.
>>
>>98820168
I told you to stop the falseflags. You're the only "fan" that's obnoxious.
>>
>>98820224
If you combined radiant wave with medium sublimation, wouldn't it treat all your techniques like you spent/devoted extra aura to them proportional to your radiant wave conduction level? Or would you also need to add reified champion for that?
>>
>>98820240
That might require both reified champion and conduction form. But it's a possible combo at that point.
>>
>>98820216
Wait, so then do you think I should give them consummate self incarnation and waning lunar eon?
>>
>>98820315
I don't know about should but giving it two legend statuses would be insane, which is exactly what signature technique empowers it to
>>
>>98820315
No, that's not enough. Give it encompassing world avatar and universal sovereign too. You can never be sure.
>>
I think given the way Prodigy and Sacred Fountain are worded, Signature Technique just doubles the strength.
>>
>>98820132
People really don't read the flow master statuses closely enough. When you use them with anoth conduction form, you're amplifying another conduction form by a number of levels equal you your conduction level in that master status.
This means that if you're in max sacrificial blood conduction with max stoic archetect, you can create blood constructs like you had gained 3 full conduction levels above max blood conduction.
This normally isn't normslly too OP because 1, the master statuses only amplify one of the 3 aspects of a conduction mode and 2, trying to stack conduction modes is a quick way to 0 aura. It'd normally be a quick, short-lived super-mode.

....now enter Omnipotent syncronicity. Combined with all 3 master statuses, all your conduction modes are now all active and affected by all master statuses you now.
...now remember that master statuses are conduction modes, and thus valid targets to be amplified by other master statuses. A sacred metal, stoic archetect, tandava scourge flow master in max synchronicity can make damaging constructs like swords(since it's a destructive creation, thus prccing both master boosts) as if they were 6 full conduction levels higher. This application is even more hyper-specific since you need to fulfill multiple status requirements to get it(the previous example wouldn't work on armor since tandava scourge only boosts destructive uses), but it can create exponentially powerful combo abilities.
>>

This is why radiant wave is so good

So if I have radiant wave, all 3 flow master statuses, conduction form, and omnipotent synchronicity, what happens if I max release omnipotent synchronicity and then shift into conduction form?

Can't you just add medium sublimation and ignore this completely? MS would add all your conductions to every conduction, so it should alwsys meet the requirements for master ststus amplification.

>>98820381
it doesn't add the conductions as a whole phenomenon, it adds their elements

>>98820359
You win. Congratulations, you did it.
>>
>>98820359
Well, you basically added a 4th confuction level to synchronicity, which added a 4th level to all your master statuses.
For a perfect flow technique that was destructive(tandava), a construct(archetect), and close-range(champion), your conduction would habe a power output 13 levels above max radiant wave.
>>98820381
I want to disagree, since that's overpowered as fuck and breaks the cool restrictions-for-power theme, but I can't think of how.
>>
>>98820410
you're just randomly assuming you can add the exponents together, i still think you should be adding the final power of each of your conductions together instead

A new flow build, this time built around my favourite conduction, Absolute Force. I'm lacking in Trainings but my telekinesis hits like an absolute nuke. Also I believe this is the first time I didn't go Institute Apprentice, since this one is less about optimisation and more about imagining a fun combat style. I basically just run around doing odd jobs, biting every plot hook and generally having random adventures while training to become The Strongest.

>Flowanon proving the haters wrong after 5 straight threads of slander
That fucking retard from the last few threads was basic his entire argument off stacking flow States. Conduction Modes and Series Techniques are cheap as fuck.
Not sure why Glow States specifically cost an arm and a leg in both aura and points though.
>>
>>98820516
because they're strong?
>>
>>98820504
Ram my nose in his [REDACTED]
>>
>>98820524
Not That strong. Pure conduction builds are way stronger for less.
>>
>>98820508
Honestly it makes sense. It doesn't just give you a bunch of techniques but also teachers and above all, a safe place to learn (which is vital if you're potentialmaxxing and thus not that strong at the start).

Absolute Force Supremacy

Softie is a scalie nerd irl idk why u all drool over him
>>
>>98820550
Because he's incredibly fat- I mean soft. Incredibly soft.
>>
>>98820516
Shifting and Harmonic state are fairly priced I feel, It's really Super Dynamic and Ultra Conversion states that are overpriced.
>>
>>98820558
I think you mean fluffy
>>
What do you even do with holy harmonic state? How do you make that the centerpiece of your build, which it needs to be given its cost?
>>
>>98820567
use it? It's basically self sufficient.
>>
>>98820576
Okay, it goes on the get this eventually list under technique collection campaign entries in my universal sovereign builds because it has some totally existent synergy with universal sovereign.
>>
>>98820567
Isn't that one basically just Coduction: Divine element? Just take a couple of the something Series to have extensions like normal conductions.
>>
Also I just noticed Holy Harmonic State is only g2 which is funny.
>>
>>98820516
>>98820535
Stacking all the states is a monstrously powerful build in it's own right.
You become an energy being that fires out energy beams/bullets that increase in power the farther they travel, are wrapped in a kenetic barrier that amplifies your melee attacks with the force of a tectonic plate, can teleport anywhere you see, are immune to ranged attacks, and can switch aura concentrstion to massively amplify either your attack potency or defense.
All of this requires 44 aura devotion, but that's well within acheivable.
If conductions are spellcasting, then states are psychic powers. Stacking all of the states makes you into the ultimate psion.
>>
>>98820591
I think Flow is the only one with G2 legendaries. The Weapon Injection is also G2 I think.
>>
>>98820567
Also HHS only spend aura when you actually use it so theoretically you could just stay in that state all the time.
>>
>>98820591
>Holy Harmonic State is only g2
The fuck?
I geuss ascending the wheel and becoming equal to the ancient gods is just a thing moderately talented senguru can do.
>>
>>98820603
Nah they all have G2's.
>>
>>98820606
Nta. The tech itself also mentions that, and then mentions some reson why you wouldn't want to do it, but if I forgot what that reason is then it means it must not be compelling enough to listen.
>>
>>98820608
Don't fuck with the wizard dynasty.
>>
>>98820608
Eon reversal is also G2.
>>
>>98820610
Really? I didn't notice. Outside of the fighting styles too?
>>
>>98820613
It's just 'if you use it extensively or recklessly you may run out of aura', so if you just don't use the powers when you don't need to you'll be fine.
>>
>>98820621
Ya. eon reveral, blood offering to the glory god, chimera egg, almighty limb and the paper sigils.

>>
>>98820593
>If conductions are spellcasting, then states are psychic powers. Stacking all of the states makes you into the ultimate psion.
So the old wizard clan is also psychic. Great.
>>
>>98820642
>doesn't taking damage just count as the sort of expenditure EWA gets rid of?
You're thinking of Superdynamic State.
Holy Harmonic State doesn't have automatic defenses. You have to consciously spend energy to stop attacks or people.
Both are made free by Encompassing World Avatar though. EWA is fucking awesome.
>>
>>98820642
>like, are you even mortal in combat with EWA and HHS?
Barely.
> doesn't taking damage just count as the sort of expenditure EWA gets rid of?
I think that's more Heavenly Regalia.
>>
I just thought of something, wouldn't Holy Harmonic State boost the shit out of the power of Noble Commandment? I can't really thing of a better technique-alteration style action to amplify NC than literally becoming one of the divine beings you're trying to mimic the words of.
>>
>>98820656
>Heavenly Regalia
Heavenly regalia is pretty shit compared to superdynamic state. It's not a state, so it doesn't allow you to create fusion techniques, only adds defense without any other boosts, and doesn't get mitigated by EWA.
>>
>>98820643
It’s all magic retard
>>
>>98820656
Heavenly Regalia creates a buffer the moment you use it, then the hits take from that buffer. Since you are not spending aura at that moment EWA doesn't mitigate it.
>>98820678
>Heavenly regalia is pretty shit compared to superdynamic state.
It's pretty shit in general compared to most techniques considering the required invenstment to use it and the alternatives. I would call it the worst legendary but I remember a couple more were worse.

The legend statuses don't uncap your training limit. They make you mind-bogglingly powerful, core legend ststus literally starts you off at maximum release meteor drive as a passive bonus, but you can't train above your body's physical maximum without resolute center(though you can steal it from others with it's devotion). Waning Lunar Eon is the most strapped by this, because it has no way to increase it's base speed at all.

I will go for regeneration, even if it is slow I don't have to worry about getting permanently crippled

since I don't have to worry about finding food/water and I can heal wounds relatively quickly it means I can grind zombies more efficiently. even just going up a building in a crowded city and throwing stuff down is bound to get me plenty of kills

I've noticed most builds create combo powers within a single affinity, but what about cross-affinity combos?
For example: Conduction Form works by infusing your element into your aura and then creating a compressed layer of that element around your body, together these effects amplify your conduction mode one step and boost your physical stats.
What if we comboed that with Medium Sublimation and Living World Refolding? Now your entire reserve it attuned to your element and you can stack multiple layers of it on top of each other. Throretically, that should amplify both the stat boosting and conduction boosting effects each time you add a layer.

Singularity Spiral + Waning Lunar Eon. You create singularity repulsion around your body.
Gojo had Waning Lunar Eon, Singularity Spiral, Paradox Point, and Inner Realm if we go off the power descriptions. The fact reversed cursed technique was an active-use power and had limits on how much it could heal leads me to believe he also had Panacea Specialist too.
Going off the anime technique usage, he'd have had roughly 59 Aura at minimum to pull off the stunts he did in the fight vs sukuna.

Meteor Drive:
>In the Apocalypse stage, even these seemingly godlike feats are dwarfed, and the user’s strength is only comparable to high-output explosives. It is said quite accurately that being hit with such an impact is like being struck with a flying comet, hence the Technique’s title.
Consumate Self Incarnation:
>With the attainment of the highest level of the Core Affinity, the wielder of the Consummate Self-Incarnation becomes a living archetype of force. Their body moves with the FURY OF A COMET, the fortitude of a mountain, and the persistence of gold.
CSI's baseline is Meteor drive's max output. They can stack together to go higher, but in a vs consumate wins easily.
This should have been obvious anyway meteor drive is a great release technique, it can't compare to a legendary status.

You can't bypass things like Living World Refolding with this combo, but can with Inner Realm. Inner Realm is also specifically one-sided touch, while Extention makes you vulnerable to such tricks yourself.

I don't think you know what trap option means. The negatives are clearly spelled out for you. Its not the author's fault you can't read.

>>98821519
Efficiency refers to aura dispensation anon.
Release techniques section:
>The established efficiency and potency of Release Techniques are to be considered baseline. A skilled user can optimize the strength and efficiency of their Techniques by leaps and bounds beyond their stated limits. An unskilled user might also bastardize the strength and efficiency of a Technique into a crude mockery of its stated limits or use it at an inefficient dissipation.

Urban phantom is definitely a cult classic with a very dedicated group that loves it. Living God permanently changed my power gaming ways as that CYOA made you something so strong that for the first time I actually had to ask myself; now what? Is it even fun if you are so powerful that there are no true challenges? Several other extremely high power settings have been made but that one really drove home the endgame.

Fine that one is an example of a Faustian Bargain more than a true trap option (which he also does).

Flow and Alchemy work well together, Fae Spore or Corrosive Acid with Toxin Pearl, Nature Acquiescence with Bewitchment of Skies, Sparrow Blades with Gates of the Emperor's Dwelling, Alchemy can enchant weapons and Flow got the Weapon Link.
Conduction with Tracking Body Sigil, Watching Paper Sigil or Enchanted Mirror of Darkness.

Assassin's Secret Cupboard with Origami or Doll Servant is a funny one.

>>98821127
Special Series Extension with a Conduction like Revealing Light is better if you have the aura.

He is THE WEAKEST in our Overpowered Aura Farmers group. Both Vamp Tranny and Imugem can easily defeat him. At the start and, especially, in potential.

>>98821583
I liked chimeralord better. The summoner build is one of the stronger overpowered builds but its pretty meh flavor wise.
>>
>>98821617
Isn't that like the FIRST build posted mere minutes after SC originally dropped? I'll cut it some slack for not being in-depth even if its too coom-y for my liking.

A Challenged difficulty Aura Slave build with the Pure Body, Klutz, an ambivolent alteration for inhumanity 3rd eye with Withering Blossom, Shallow Pool, All G0s.
You literally can't buy anything except mundane training, have nothing to devote aura to in order to activate pure body, and finally your aura will fade away forever soon.
>>
>>98821609
Artifact armory, resilience, fast learner (without buying any training), and rebirth with a shallow aura system for alterations. Didn't buy any affinities, and spent all the remaining points on multiple basic weapons with a single badly chosen trait.

>>98821734
IDK, but stacking Karmic Outlaw, Lone Warrior, and Demon Seed on top of the Klutz and Withering Blossom in your maximum pain build should make up fo it and then some.

The ultimate planeswalker, able to go wherever I want whenever I want. Like Wanda said in MoM, being able to travel the multiverse means always having an answer.
Stuff to do based on the Rentry:
>Gather Induction Vials for later study and replication. Very easy given my power.
>Go treasure hunting in general, scouring the planes for cool stuff and storing them in a distant dimension.
>Kill monsters. The Titans, Reaper, Cataclysm, Revenant, the Iconoclasm, Nobility and the like need to go, the sooner the better. I should be strong enough to do so at little to no personal risk.
>Unfuck Eigenfield, because I feel bad for them. These guys are weak so it should be really easy.

Everyone talks about the best techniques, the most OP ones, but what are some underrated techniques? Some techniques that are simple or cheap but surprisingly useful.
As an example, I like Pace Reversal, it's not much but it's passive and has a lot of utility. You can mimick some of its effects by going fast with Oscillating Motion or Lunar Eon, but you can't stop and stand on a wall with those.

The Aura sink on a lot of techniques is definitely a problem how about this:
>Experiment #3
The Aura costs of techniques is reduced by taking Training. Each training reduces a specific category of techniqued by 1 star at initiate, 2 stars at master, and 3 stars at legend.

The category of Techniques a Training effects are specific. As so:
>Martial Arts training affects Martial Arts, but not Weapon Arts or Improvization Arts
>Weaponry training affects Weapon Arts, but not Martial Arts or Improvization Arts
>Technique Artistry affects Spent aura on any technique, but not Devoted aura
>Acrobatics affects Phase Release Techniques on physical stats, but not Martial, Weapon, or Improvisation Arts
>Athletics affects Core Release Techniques that boost physical stats, but not Martial, Weapon, or Improvisation Arts
>Ceremony Boosts blessings and curses or summoning techniques used on spirits, but not creation or summoning of chimera, angels, demons, abyssal lords, etc.
>Scholarship ca boost a variety of techniques, but only if they're relevant to the study. Medicine would affect chimera creation/summoning, healing/poison, or conduction modes for plants/fungi/flesh/blood.
>Deceit affects phase illusions, body sigils, and altering techniques
>Tinkering affects crestion of physical objects with alchemy, conduction modes, or series technique
Skill Trsining can reduce aura cost for a techniques below 1, but doesn't make a technique free. Techniques with on aura cost below 1 have a cost from 0.75 to 0.25 of one star.
>>98822013
How about this:
>Experiment 4
You may by Alterations with a listed point cost as a technique by paying twice the point cost.
You may not purchase alterations with 0 point cost or that give points this way. Adfitionally, these alterations can't be made into techniques:
>Pure Pool
>Corrupt pool
>Harem Mode
>Charismatic
>Limitless Meridians

Does that work for you?

At least 128 points in one power, more than x2 your Overpowered budget.
It really isn't fine from game balance perspective.

That's less than my overpowered build costs.

I obviously don't include freebies in my definition of Overpowered budget.
It isn't fine at all anyway.
>>
>>98822235
Its fine, that's exactly what signature technique is for.
>>
>>98822256
nta but i think it's clear based on stuff like Prodigy and Sacred Fountain that Signature Technique is only meant to be like a 2x boost.

Anon, you fell for wronganon's bait.

>>98822301
Yea if you make something cool, fun, and thematic there is a bit of wiggle room. If you are trying to create an exploit not so much, but not zero either ;)
>>
>>98822309
Still less than my total build by a a fifth and took the alteration to make it stronger.
>>
>>98822317
I think anon was confused and though you were reducing the cost to buy techniques with build points instead of reducing the aura cost to use a technique.
>>
>>98822332
NTA but softie seems fine to me. Now if he was tacking on legend statuses...
>>
>>98822341
No he's fucking retarded for doing it in intervals of entire points when that's not what would happen. Congrats shit like transfiguration is completely free and costs no aura.

>>98822344
Nah its good as is.
>>
>>98822308
Is it believable that there are spirits like that? Yes. Is it belevable that you'll be eventually able to subjugate someone like that in play? Also yes.
Is it balanced to have something like that from the start? Lol, lmao even.
>>
>>98822333
Softie your build is Overpowered that doesn't mean anything. Also a technique and a 0 cost alteration is not worth that many points, come on now. Just look at Koha's sprit acolytes and compare.

>Congrats shit like transfiguration is completely free and costs no aura.

And before someone says it, I am not saying that the Koha's have Signature Technique.

>>98822367
Why is it not balanced?
>>98822370
She has three whole acolytes that each have a full conduction + whatever else each and doesn't have an alteration making them stronger.

If anons are so butthurt over softie using a vague power as intended what the fuck are you thinking the point total for acolyte should be? 20? 30? 40? Those all sound way too low to me.
>>
>>98822381
>She has three whole acolytes
Yes, as in she 'bought' the technique three times.
>each have a full conduction + whatever else each
...So like 8 points.
> doesn't have an alteration making them stronger.
Again, that doesn't do as much as you think it does.

>>98822381
Because it makes point costs in thae cyoa a complete joke.
>>
>>98822388
>Again, that doesn't do as much as you think it does.
Why? It says it does. Doesn't even reach my point total on my own build, all it did was make a strong melee fighter with some minor extra shenanigans.
>>
>>98822387
Just compare to Koha's Spirits.
>>
>>98822397
They weren't already?
>>
>>98822397
Point costs are already a joke.
>>
>>98822398
Again I don't know why you keep comparing a 10 cost power + an alteration to literally an entire Overpowered build like that means anything?
>>
>>98822002
Harionago's Locks

every strand of hair on your body is now hard as steel and can be moved independently, and this is baseline without enhancing it further to increase strength and speed.

it's essentially the difference between having 2 arms or 100k arms.
although I do suppose it means you need to have long luscious hair if you want to use it effectively.
>>
>>98822413
If it doesn't mean anything then why do you keep saying it's imbalanced? It's a power that gives me essentially another enslaved build to call on and give aura too just like the servant and dead calling powers, except I actually get to design it. Why is it imbalanced to spend on both the power and an alteration for the power that says it makes it much stronger?

Unironically it sounds like jealousy, why is this spirit specifically overpowered compared to other things other builds did?
>>
>>98822414
>although I do suppose it means you need to have long luscious hair if you want to use it effectively.
Yep it says as much. It thematically clashes with a lot of my build ideas but it has crazy untapped potential.
>>
>>98822423
They are jealous, you followed raw and authors intent imo. Anon just doesn't like that a spirit might btfo him out of the gate but would accept a martial artist build doing it.
>>
>>98822438
I mean I don't want to be too mean but that's unironically what its sounding like when they can't articulate why its too strong other than "muh points".
>>
>>98822423
Don't mind him anon. It's lore consistent. A spirit can be as or often more powerful than we are and we can potentially gain control over multiple. Yea that's powerful, my heavenly instrument build is an exorcist because he isn't about to ignore the spirit capturing weapon link (which can only hold one).
>>
>>98822438

classic Dark Sovereign munchkin.
Yeah, thats too strong but after so many discussions with him I give up in convincing him. I always need WOG to do so, so I know its pointless.

Good luck you all, good luck trying to tell him why his acolyte is overtuned when Koha's 3 acolytes are like 3 techniques between them all and hyper specialized.
His 1 acolyte is above those 3 canon acolytes so much that the kohas would need like another 5 to compensate.
But as I said, he is the kind of guy you will never convince with arguments. Its pointless. Don't try it.

That's really funny. Always loved being able to get that pelt in traveller's tale.

>>98822526
I think >>98822551 Its a good explanation. A technique that had a few strong techniques or 1 extremely good technique, ended up having 2 extremely good techniques, 5-6 strong techniques and like 10 basic techniques.

>>98822573
nta, you can pick whatever you want but the powers you can get from it are limited.
>>
>>98822561
Honestly yea, for the cost of an alteration slot the acolyte he made is good but his subjection build would have easily gotten better ones in fairly short order.
>>
>>98822568
So then if you don't think acolytes can be strong, and you don't think signature technique can boost them to an insane degree as it says it does, what is the point of either?
>>
>>98822561

Signature is just way too vague bro.

No Gorgon eyes turning people to stone, no nemean lion invulnerability to weapons, no unicorn purification of all poisons, no pheonix rebirth, etc.

There are way more broken things you can do with Signatures. Bypass normal limits on timestop, time travel and powernull, or even obtain potentially all the Signatures with Vessel Transfer (S), but his build strikes anons directly in the point limit. That's why it is so unacceptable.

>>98822617

>>
>>98822620
>A Signature Technique is a class above its usual limits

Yeah, my interpretation is STRONG enough for that.
>>
>>98822635
Holy wronganon...
>>
>>98822584
>So then if you don't think acolytes can be strong
Acolytes have a clear stated limit in the number and quality of the techniques they have. Its not a matter of "if you dont think..." they have a few strong techniques or 1 extremely good technique. Not like 20 abilities with a lot of them strong and a couple extremely strong.

>and you don't think signature technique can boost them to an insane degree as it says it does
Signature technique always has been the vague alteration muchkin players tried to hop into. And the author ended up shutting them down. I remember an anon trying to say Signature and Transmutation lets you create a Fairy star if you had enough Aura.
Then the author came and said no, the setting is clearly limited to jjk.

Anyway, Signature technique is never going to boost a technique that massively to the point to equate buying 5-6 acolytes. Thats like saving yourself 40-50 points of the cyoa with 1 option, its clearly just abusing a vague option. That acolyte by itself would have more points than any non overpowered build ever and more points than any overpowered build not stuffed with malignant alterations to the brim.

Thats the kind of massively buffed thing you are talking about.

The point of Acolyte is having a summon with some abilities you dont have for summon builds. The point of signature is to buff your favourite technique.
The point of neither of them is to be such a munchkin build that you think signature technique improves the technique 5-6 times.

Do you think signature Seismic strike one shots the souls of everyone in 100m radius or Seismic strike and Signature technique don't have a point? thats the kind of thing you are asking.
>>
>>98822605
Wow, that's fucking underwhelming. I can design my own monster form stronger than that with great release techniques in core or alchemy.
>>
>>98822641
NTA but he is objectively correct. You get boosted physical abilities from being a giant monster and one of the listed superpowers.
>>
>>98822638
It's fucking multiple classes above it's weight
>>
hmm... I think a balanced arrangement might be that the weapon gets to spend (9+EP spent on it+AP spent on it)= [22 maximum and 12 minimum] as it's total AP budget when building it then add 1 benevolent alteration.
>>
>>98822647
NTA but the word usually debunks your first point. A spirit acolyte can be any spirit as long as you tame it. He could have yakshanek as an Acolyte if he dicked her into being one.
>>
>>98822647
I remember the idiot who thought Transmutation would let him do literally EVERYTHING. Softies builds aren't even close. This acolyte in particular isn't even a good use of signiture technique IMO and he was quite conservative with it.
>>
>>98822663
> It can potentially possess any Techniques or abilities a trained mortal can, but usually a limited number of strong abilities or one extremely powerful ability.
Not really. Acolyte is based on spirits being passed down the family. Thats the lore. They have clear limits stated.
The player skips having to be passed down a spirit, just like that technique that came from your family being racist not making sense with us but having a lore.
And if you want to tame spirits, there is a technique for that.
This reads as "if I want, Yama is my acolyte". Which is munchkin behaviour by faking being ignorant of the limits on purpose
>>
>>98822662
I am going to find another talented Conscript anon. 45 AP and 4 alterations.
>>
>>98822680
why not just find an overpowered one instead?
>>
>>98822647
I personally don't think his acolyte is a problem and signature could have brought it higher. He's got a rika, so what?
>>
>>98822684
They don't actually exist.
>>
>>98822688
Rika is a good comparison.
>>
>>98822671
He has... like 20 techniques. 2 legendaries and at least 5 high level techniques.
The technique was meant to have 1 legendary or a few high level techniques not... this. Signature doesn't justify this jump.
If you start to count all the points the acolyte would need to buy the things from the cyoa, it has more than 100 points (not counting affinities)
>>
>>98822679
Anon read the rest of spirit acolyte, you need to tame them and they can be anything tameable, it even says you choose based on different criteria. How do you think the spirit became an acolyte in the first place especially for a conscript with no lineage?
>>
niggas be like "ohh getting like 3 free conscripts is to OP!!" as if alchemists are running around with like 40k summons in their pocket that are stronger than an overpowered conscript

If we are going by anime precedent it's well within the norm, Rika >>98822688
Like anon said or Kurama if we look outside JJK.
>>
>>98822693
That's effectively what anons are saying. It's literally the jjk council deciding if rika is too op or not.
>>
>>98822719
Those are two drastically different scenarios. Rika is nothing but upsides for Yuta while Kon was something Aki paid for in every use. He can't just spam it all the time or have it 24/7
>>
>>98822719
We've seen what Spirit Acolytes are meant to look like (Koha) and Softie's is too good even with Signature.

>It's literally the jjk council deciding if rika is too op or not.

>>98822727

>>
>>98822730
>even with Signature.
Techniques amped by signature are supposed to be immensely strong anon. Softie's technique is basically just a "used 60 aura on Transmigration to lure a great spirit" level of strong. It's underpowered.
>>
>>98822730
I don't think so, he could have gone higher imo. As is this acolyte is going to get outscaled anyways.
>>
>>98822722
And that is where the balance police need to stop crying. Is anything in JJK balanced? Do they find exploits? Just a little while ago we were crying that signiture technique isn't worth an alteration slot and now we are coming down on a build that used it for something thematic and wronganon doesn't like that a powerful sorcerer could one shot their perfect flow build Spirits are actually powerful (where earlier Softie got shit for underestimating Spirits).

144 points.

144 points worth of techniques with 2 options: one alteration and 10 points.
Plus the affinities for said techniques that I won't even count. If you all think this was within PCA's view of Signature technique + acolyte be my guest. I am too tired to discuss something this obvious for the 99th time.

All of this while the original Acolyte was meant to be 1 extremely good technique (legendary), or a few strong ones (high level).
>>98822748
Underpowered... sure. We should give it like 2 legend status, 3 would be stretching it... maybe we should say it can have 3 or 4 alterations, benevolents ones of course. Its like we are abusing him for letting him just have 144 points worth of techniques by buying one 10 point spirit and using an alteration.

Shapeshifter as a whole is a bit underwhelming and is carried HARD by Mythic Beast so I don't really disagree. It does give a good platform to grow IMO as obviously everything else will stack on top of it (I.E built up strength, speed, regen, etc from other techniques), but all you really get out of it is being able to be a really big piece of meat, which don't get me wrong has benefits and I made a full build for, but esoteric stuff is what makes a mythic beast mythical.

We have it in another way.

Sensory Cyanotype (-5 AP):
“Reveal all secret truth, surpassing vision.”
Requires Alchemy G1+ or Flow G1+
Passive Effect
The Sensory Cyanotype augments one’s vision with subtle Aura fractures in their enemy’s weak points, weapon usage and positioning. Openings in their martial style, opportunities for a fatal blow, and exploitable injuries appear plainly before them like targets. These fractures don’t just appear in human subjects, and will appear across nearly anything that might be worthy of strategic notice—weaknesses in structural supports, advantages in the environment, confidential documents left in the open, and so on, with the caveat that it’s user would have to know they might be useful before being revealed. Anywhere a Release Technique is in effect, the user can sense the Aura dissipation like fracturing sparks of electricity around any object or person. They can also accurately gauge the remaining Aura Reserve of anyone within the Technique’s range. The Sensory Cyanotype can be used to detect and focus onto objects of interest, Aura Reserves and Release Techniques over a large radius augmented by the skill of the user, passing beyond walls, fog and other visual obstructions.

I have decided i'm probably going to take the spirit acolyte off. Anons descriptions of rika are apt, but as the cyoag discord has made me aware even in jjk rika was way stronger than the spirit acolyte I made, so I definitely don't think the spirit acolytes strength is a problem. Instead even if its strong it gets outscaled by spirit subjugation, so it feels like a waste especially for something that's supposed to essentially be a partner spirit.

I'm thinking of taking resilience, and removing eccentric and using the one point leftover for a blood alteration, though i'm not sure which would be good, maybe spirit or animal for their extra recovery options of lust or food x2?

Anon, you do know your spirit can learn new techniques just as you do right?

There are no good ways to copy powers in SC. Just questionable practices of soulstealing and fusions with summons.
Rika is impossible to replicate faithfully in the system.

Lol, you made PCA reveal he still watches the threads by causing him to crash out about power copying on the discord.

>>98823433
I did?

>causing him to crash out about power copying on the discord.
Why did he crash out about that?
>>
>>98823434
Post it. I'm genuinely intrigued.
>>
fuck it I'm for real about to take klutz to get the meridians
>>
>>98823434
If PCA is listening he should know I would support him doing a major rebalancing and the whiners can suck it.
>>
>>98823469
I would just be an addict to something stupid if I was that desperate.

Kek, thanks anon. Power copying is just a bad idea in general narratively speaking.

So appearantly he's got a chip on his should over the concept of power fantasies now?
Now my money is that whatever questions we ask, he'll come up with the most nerfed answer possible. Even if that contradicts what he wrote.

This also vindicates softie since he made a SSE build. Anons gravitate to broken powers like flies (not that we didn't know it was broken, just pointing out that his builds trigger people because they DO work). SSE is also an example why IOTH is just such a must have. You are totally fucked without it.

>>98823531
SSE?

I did not make a sorcerers servant eye build.

>>98823501
Lol PCA agrees with me!

>>98823517
Wanting a good adventure is why we are all here anon single player or multiplayer.
>>
>>98823542
Guess it was another twink then
>>
>>98823548
It forced you to kill people to get their powers which I kind of didn't like. Soul-Shattering Howl lets you store spirits and transport them back and forth from your sorcerers servant eye without needing to always have it devoted though, which the anon you're thinking of didn't do. If I was more evil I probably would have done sorcerers instead of summoning, that build requires like two powers to function at its peak like my summoner one.
>>
>>98823543
>Wanting a good adventure is why we are all here anon single player or multiplayer
Anon, this shows a lack of theory of mind. Plenty of anons here have zero desire for adventure and want an unchallenging, comfortable existence. Plenty more just want power, but don't actually have any desire to Use said power, only wanting to train eternally in their basement.
>>
>>98823585
There's also the gooners too. Some anons just want sex and don't want to have to deal with complicated relationship shit.
>>

Nay, that was moi

It gets worse. Soul Shattering Howl explicitly allows you to use shards of you that you created with Mind Splitting as separate souls.
A Universal Sovereign with Souls Shattering Howl and Mind Splitting can store an infinite amount of shards of themselves inside their own body and use them as fuel for rapid-fire Howls

Unlimited ammo, obviously.

If you've got Pain Disposition, that'll also probably take you from empty to full instantly. After all, you're still able to feel your mindshards...

That was down to points mostly, plus there's other stuff like Urn of the Dead that can do similar things and should be easy to pick up.

This just goes on to prove that PCA is a bad author who hates his own creation and should not be listened to. He's very likely to nerf shit out of spite the more he sees people enjoy them, just like he went mad over the mere notion that people may like a power fantasy more than his strange metaphisical bullshit setting full of existential dread. He still hasn't gotten over the fact people like SC and I wouldn't be surprised if a lot of the dumb wrong takes about it are him stirring shit on purpouse to make people stop talking about it, since he's also known to be a samefagger.
>>
>>98823782
If he ever updates SC it's either gonna turn into Power Creator 2 or he's gonna pull a BTG and make everything miseryporn to get off on the players suffering.

Sorry I think that people want adventure in the choose your own adventure thread. I don't think you are one to talk about theory of mind though wronganon.

>>98823594
Gooning is an adventure though. I would watch a 10 season anime about a guy in the Ninokata.

I'm glad you'd enjoy my build's story.

>>98823812
Yes but I think you mean MY builds story.

Could you use a Special Technique IotH to instead negate or bypass similar protections in others. Or just reverse engineer the technique to create superior mind controlling techniques?
>>
>>98823833
I don't think so but who knows
>>
>>98823091
Maybe you just don't have a vast enough aura pool to really beef up your Spirit Acolyte.

I was thinking of changing some stuff around and grabbing it myself.

>discord
What's the consensus there. Is it weak or just not OP?
