The Path Unending (A Cultivation Quest)

[x] Can anything be done to slow the process?
[x] What techniques might the beast favor?
[x] Is this it's primary path of growth, or simply supplementary? what else does it consume it strengthen itself?
[X] Are there any techniques or abilities phantom points tend to develop?
[X] How has the phantom point avoided or escaped other artists searching for spirit beasts?
 
[X] Does a Phantom Point have any potential weaknesses that could be exploited?
[X] Are there any abilities that we've observed or can speculate on that I should be aware of and prepare a response for? Any particular senses it targets for its Deception-based abilities?
[X] Are there any observed effects on the Phantom Point as it continues to invest in its target? Would it be weaker if struck right on the cusp of devouring its target, or would sooner be better than later?

Well that was a great update. Didn't reduce the malus' as much as I'd hoped, but we did get a +1 for Wugui and +1 Athletics. And more Athletics rolls than expected went into Talon of Remembrance.

Looks like we have a good lead for a Steel Wonder now. So I think we can safely expect working towards defeating the Deer as working toward our goal of sourcing suitable Wonders. I wouldn't make any attempt to locate the place until we are going to squish the Stag though, as we don't want to let it know that we are on to it.

[X] What strategies would be recommended for ambushing this arsehole target?
[X] *Discreetly check Sun Yijun's forehead for poke marks* (Has your fellow brother suffered as much as you have?)
[X] Will the Phantom Point be able to do anything to Panyao when it is attacked?

Click to expand...
Click to shrink...
My idea was to use SEG for Long range tracking. We should find the Stags resting place without it ever detecting us since we'll be outside any range it'll be sensing from. And if it can detect us from that kind of range...Honestly I don't think we'd get the chance to get the drop on it anyways.
 
Why do we need to use SEG to find this Steel lair? We've got a rough location narrowed down - I'd just spend a regular explore action on trying to find it. SEG is an expensive action, and of we're going to use it I'd rather we try the "hold smoke treasure and SEG" method to find a smoke wonder. Finding a Steel wonder should be doable without SEG, while Smoke wonder is much more of an unknown.

I think this is a worthwhile question, because it determines if we can find it's lair by stalking it or we need to hunt for it separately.
 
On an unrelated note, I wanted to collect what we know about Fractal View from various statements, mostly from Discord.

1. It will start with one form. This form will be semi permanent, having an anam upkeep and taking an action to switch.

2. There is an ability to learn.other forms eventually, though we don't know the mechanics for that.

3. The new form may or may not have access to the limb techs. This may depend on what the form is.

4. Our baseline form 'under' the form remains unchanged.

5. Cteatus called it "very nice" and "a great tool in it's own right" and that "I THINK it will be in the purview of FV to get a dope form that makes you a much cooler dinosaur man".

6. Per Ves, there will be votes involved but we will not get to make up the aesthetics of the forms ourselves. My interpretation is that we will be voting from set forms designed by Ves/Ct.
