[X] Refine a basic weapon- the initial step of creating something greater, of enhancing items use, its nothing special but it is the base upon all else is built. For a weapon of war, the ghosts of wrath may harness their inherent nature to substitute for Qi Cost: 2 Qi per time taken special: for +1 Qi to the cost non wrath Ghosts may roll as if this action was in their category. [0/20] gain: a basic enhanced weapon (+2 to combat rolls) which can then be further refined and turned into an actual artifact weapon.

[X] The life line- with some work and adaptation the wrath ghost can crave a path into Guang Li lifeline making drawing the power of blood for his body far easier, by necessity they would go slow as to not hurt him [149/300]. Reduce the needed progress for the cut away life by 5.

[X] craft a Qi siphon [0/7 crafted]- with their knowledge the ancestors can manipulate the Qi around Guang Li spiritual roots into a whirlpool drawing in ambient Qi into his dantian without his or their intervention, unfortunately without active guidance they cannot take advantage of the clear meridians to draw even more Qi.

I'm not sure we should be spending so much on gear for this mission, we're expecting basically the same payout as a mission we handled pretty well last turn, so I expect that it's going to be roughly as difficult?

Life line 178/300 = 149+12+10+7

We're getting so close. If we just had a couple more wrath spirits per turn focusing on this, it won't take many more turns.

Please swap to the updated buy plan. The previous one is over budget.
 
[X] Refin Guang body. variable cost.
-[X] Refine his nerves. Cost 1 Qi per time taken [22/30]. Refined nerves (+1 Dexterity).
-[X] Use 1 Fire Qi

Should probably improve our body if we're going into combat, and we have the Qi (I think), so more Dex it is.

DInfinity also rolled a 12 for that action, so with yours it's now complete! Hooray!
 
[X] Screams of death- with the refinement of their blood lost, the ancestor may now focus their power to fell even great enemies. Result dependent on total roll.

[X] Clear a meridian acupoint. Cost 5 Qi per attempt DC 15 (18/21/24) [3/670 Cleared]. +1 open meridian. (note: 0 failure's so far)
-[x]autofail

I'm back on the Yin Meridian Grindset. I know people are excited about qi siphons but there's no way 7 qi per turn will be enough, so investing in meridians means that we will be able to gather extra qi faster.

You can also set them as different things. Like, the siphons are element-specific. You can have the siphons give you nothing but water, and then focus your meridian work on non-water things.

Heard the water qi siphon finished so time to get that meridian going :p.

Also I thought we werent buying anything to save for the auction, and if we dont buy anything there then we could buy stuff latter. (and Idealy not at inflated prices, How do we join the alchemy hall again?)

Would this help with the Auction at all or would it be too impersonal?

So the weapon is refined and the Screams seem to be doing well. So should I do the Life Line or add more scream power?

Feels too early to commit when the thing I would have been super OK committing to(the weapon) completed without me.

Yeah, and the plan to buy stuff spends almost as much as we would get this turn with the mission, while also buying something we are like halfway to getting for free.
 
Alchemy 3 would take several turns to finish even if all out wisdom ghosts helped so I'm helping here. My ghost was a pill master, every form of alchemy and refinement was learned by him

Edit: though it looks like his teachings were drowned out by the calls for blood and the pain of meridian clearing

Posting this before I go to bed. Things are actually going pretty well for us so far this turn, with a fair number of tasks being completed and a good start to screams of death. We should probably gather a little pure qi to get out of debt/get ready for more meridian clearing, but I doubt that'll take more than 2 people to accomplish with how easy it is to do.

Honestly at this rate we might as well craft a Pure Qi siphon as well.

I'm thinking from now on I work on making Spirit Qi from Fire and Yin for Mind Refinement. Or Ice for further primary cultivation. Ice seems easier, and we don't know what Yin Mind Refinement is available, so yeah... Ice, probably.
