This isn't enough to unstagnate us. We're currently at .6x XP stagnancy. Popular alternative seems to be RRB.

Can I just swap 4FSoP for RRB and call it a day? Or do I need to include other information?
I figure we can just tell him 'turns out I can make stone that looks like the GS-stone, but whatever makes it suitable for 3D sealing is something else' and he'd accept that. Doesn't spill the beans on PS and he's going to figure out ES anyways.
Okay, great, I'll put something similar to that in.
Yeah, seal testing grounds should probably be outside the walls, so I'll remove those. Koi ponds and water channels Koi can easily escape into... that does not seem like the kind of thing we could actually get away with, in practice. I think if the Wakahisa found out they would see right through it and not accept it as an accident (or if they did, they would simply demand we kill the extra koi). If we're going to cheat the deal, I think the right move is to simply have a second secret Koi pond they won't find out about.
Paper asked us to specify how we want to design RRBs. This is the popular choice
- SC SSA: Reusable Rocket Boots
- Six uses.
- Boost bonus, then additional uses until challenges stagnation.

@_The_Bomb I will no longer be updating my plan as @FaintlySorcerous has added a Sealing section.

Please keep 4FSoP where it is. There's a literall cabal that will earn you my, @RandomOTP's, @Twinnstars', and I think @RandomX2's vote for it.

Turns out it's hard to fit into <300 words, this might need to go into a normal action plan.
I was initially under the (false) impression that Cannai implied we would have trouble doing this with human ninjutsu, but this seems like a good idea. I'll add it in.
This looks good, I'll make the edit.

I think your use of apostrophes broke the tagging.
Un-stagnating seems like a big deal as we're pretty darn stagnant. Do you have ideas as to how to get both of these in there? Again, I'm not up on the mechanics and I'm really just looking for someone to tell me what to do.
I absolutely see the case for 4FSoP and want to get going on it, but there's only so much time in the day, even with Shadow Clone.
Does this mean your plan is depreciated, or that we've diverged far enough that you won't be picking up my updates? Even if we've diverged (e.g., you don't like how I'm handling the sealing end of things) I'd encourage you to look at the content changes as I think they're strictly better than what I had.

Yes.
I like your plan, and re-thinking about it do want to do something with Yuno, and adding a Sealing section advances the other plots enough that I'm not worried about things. My plan is deader than Akane.

For the additional +3 calligraphy? It wouldn't hurt. Good looking out. I recommend everyone who has a plan with that to swap the position of those two seals.
Edit:
And yeah, MS8 was just chunin level. Unless MS8.1 is wildly more difficuly (and we have no reason to believe it will be), it won't be enough to unstagnate us.

It doesn't actually have to be SSA since it's reduced to chūnin difficulty with notes. As long as it's full prep, we are good to go!

I wouldn't worry about the genin seals, especially since we have notes for most of the ones proposed.
Kagome will be assisting with MS8.1, so thats an extra 6-7 on that roll. With prep and SSA there's likely no chance to fail the sealing roll. Callig is likely fine as well with full prep.
RRB is the actually challenging one. We will hopefully have the dampener seal done by then, so that plus the IN +3 on callig should hopefully be enough to avoid any possible issues. SSA plus full prep makes me not worries about the sealing TN. If the stagnancy challenge TN is meant to be around our sealing score, with +16 prep we can't fail even on a -12.

[X] Training Plan - Noburi: Mednin 40 -> 43 (126 XP)
[X] Training Plan: Kei Deceit 20 -> 23 (-66 XP)
[X][Notes SOP]: Finish the job
[X][Estate] A Good Foundation
[X][Aburame] Spend 1 day per month making telescopes. (+50% production)
[X][Hyūga] Finalize the deal: Hazō will provide them with sapphire and diamond only, in exchange for a healthy income stream.
Man, lotta things to vote on this cycle. And I haven't even figured out which Action Plan to support yet!
I'm not gonna claim that it's at the limits of our abilities and we definitely need that +3 calligraphy, but I want us taking these seals seriously. "It sounds easy" is the bane of sealmasters, and we almost got killed by that exact mistake with CATEARS. (granted, we could have survived a resultant sealing failure, but they can be no-save lethal just as easily)

We're modifying it to do something that the Minato chain was never doing. Kagome is deferring to us because he doesn't trust his skills enough when we're an option. We made rather slow progress on MS8 until Kagome started lending his support.

I endorse this and encourage people to change their votes accordingly. Boosting it for visibility.
Good to know! Although it would make me feel better if plan authors specified that Hazou should use the Dampener when researching RRB.

Yes -anding this, can I ask what the rush is on the MS8 varient? We're definitely not going to the rift until RRBs are finished, and personally I think that's suicide without 4fsop, CATEARS and sub seals.
There's really not a reason to research the ms8 varient until we're actually ready to get measurements, while pretty much everything else will be useful right away. 4fsop and rrbs together, then catears and the rift latching seal make more sense, imo.

I did some light analysis on the rolls last night. The TN was likely around 60 and Kagome's direct help gave about a 30% discount on the TN. I'm not sure if we were given a discount for Minato's notes, though I definitely think we should have been.
All that to say... Yeah the TN isn't low, but with full prep and SSA and Kagome's help we're rolling base of 74+16+6or7=96. I don't think the TN will be anywhere close to that, likely not even in range to fail on -12.
Definitely a good point, I would also include that if I were a plan author.
