With new information, I propose we extend another shadow clone to use prep on Force Wall as we do our other sealing projects.

You want to have two different Shadow Clones working on different projects, in addition to Prime working on his own?

We, uh, don't have the Stats to do that safely. Not without a mountain of FP for rerolls...
 
[x] [Yamanaka]: Buying the Freedom to Act

Offer: Up to 3 days-worth of Goo Bombs. Less is fine, not more.

Request: Yamanaka will help squash the rumors about Hazou's Jashinism, and bolster the clan's reputation for a period of 4 months (defense against the Hag/rival clans, freeing Hazou to act elsewhere).
Request: Ino (or similarly powerful Yamanaka) comes on a Goketsu-led Scroll Hunt + forfeits their claim on anything found.

Boosting this. It's a cool action plan, and lots of cool kids are voting for it. You want to be cool, right? 😎

I'm joking, I'll still think you're cool, even if you don't vote for it

I will vote for literally any plan that has us finding out Sasha's preferred build and native Element, just ping me about it. If it is taken out later on to conserve wordcount, you will lose my vote.

Do you have an agenda you want to push? Here's your chance to earn at least once vote for it.

Boosting this.

I have several different build plans for Sasha made, but without knowing her Element or build-preferences, they're rather unrefined/un-optimized.
 
I very much doubt Hazō has fine enough control to make something that small, but I can add it in I guess.
It doesn't have to be true nanothread, just as small as he can make it. If it doesn't work, it doesn't work.
Sealing
  • Protocol: Hazou-pilot's best judgement
  • Shadow Clone: Finish Minato Seal 7, then Minato Seal 8
  • Prime: Rocket Boots
  • Non-SSA SC researches Earth Pillar seal
  • Ask junior sealmasters to assess and identify Sarubetsu/Isan seals
Could you please specify that the Minato Seals SC and Prime are using SSA?

I figured the +16 on prep would be our safety net, if I'm wrong then...nvm.
Base sealing is 50, non SSA max prep is +12, so 62 total. Even with the maximum -12, we're rolling a 50 which is right in the middle of the chunin TNs. As long as we're doing anything on the less difficult half, we're fine. Having said that.... @acidshill, could we add a non-SC also prepping and researching CATEARS as well?

Let's go on adventures and make unforgettable memories with Ino! We really need allies that we can trust with ALL of our secrets, and nothing is better for bringing people closer together than life or death situations.

Does anyone want any further changes to this? And would someone who understands the sealing rules better than I do please confirm this makes sense, will not lead to disaster, and will properly convey our intentions to the QMs?
 
Not a fan of this, too many seals at once will stretch FP too thin. Additionally extra prep days will slow RB and MS7/8.
If we use prep, none of that research will need FP except for -12s on the RB, and that's only if a 46 is indeed a failure there.

As far as it taking more time... Well, sure, it will take two to four days longer and we get CATEARS out of it. Sounds worth it to me.

I'm hoping "Hazou-pilot's best judgement" and "if possible" will result in Hazou selecting a course of action that's relatively safe... but that does depend on whatever the QMs want to do. Ughhh I hate this. I personally do not understand the sealing rules well enough to tell what is a good idea and what is not, I'm relying on other people to tell me, and everyone seems to want something different...
 
How long will 4FSoP take?

Cycle 1 (no FP): Sealing 50 + 24(SSA) + 16(prep) = 90 (Base)

However, we can speed things up with FP. As @Paperclipped discovered and @Inferno Vulpix so eloquently put:

To optimize the results of a single roll (with no regard for anything that happens before or after), the rule is as such: When you have 38 or more FP, reroll anything less than +12. When you have 9 or more FP, reroll anything less than +9. When you have 4 or more FP, reroll anything less than +6. When you have 2 or more FP, reroll anything less than +3. When you have only one FP, reroll anything beneath 0.
Let's say we're willing to use a maximum of 2 FP on this. Meaning our FD odds look like:



We therefore have an expected FD value of +3.114 for a maximum of 2 FP expenditure (on average we're likely to spend much less than that).

So, if we have a few FP available, our cycle one infusion roll looks like:

Sealing 50 + 24(SSA) + 16(prep) + 8(Outdated Aspect) + 3.114(FD) = 101

Since the notes reduce the infusion to a Chūnin level seal, we know the infusion TN ε [30,69]. Looking at higher end of that spectrum, we get:

TN 4061 overflow~20 progress
TN 5051 overflow~17 progress
TN 6041 overflow~14 progress

Guessing conservatively (TN 50 itself overlaps into jōnin level sealing and implies this was a hard jōnin seal before the discount), we're making around 17 shifts of progress on the first cycle.

The original Infusion TN ε [50,89], with values in the Jiraiya range (TN ε [70,inf)) becoming increasingly unlikely as they approach TN 89.

Assuming 1:1 values, we can estimate our Complexity to be in the same range. Assuming a TN of 70 for a conservative estimation, we'd get nearly a quarter through the research on this first cycle.

In the true worst case scenario, these conservative guesses hold and the calligraphy is hard enough that Hazō has to do the slowest-progress full prep, and needs to do this another threeish times (for a total of 32 days to complete).

In actuality, we're probably getting slightly above 20 progress on the first cycle and will only need another two cycles, meaning a total of 24 days.

If we're a little lucky, the Calligraphy is easy enough that we can cut off a good chunk of our prep and do only around three days like RB (which is really safe on rerolling Calligraphy <= -6). Then we'd need around 8 + 3 + 3 (+3?) = 14 to 17 days.

EDIT: @Paperclipped would we get veterancy on this from, say, Air Dome seals?
