Forge of Destiny(Xianxia Quest)

Switching vote due to new plan having shaman bag and scouting.

[X] Plan Find Meridians
 
You know, we now have two types of mist - with different ranges and potentially different lists of friends immunized against said mist.

I can just imagine isolating a bunch of allies from MotV, but not doing so for AE's most because of the cost.

"Get under cover of my mist, guys; it will hide you from sight of our enemies. Just, uh, make sure to stay out of the inner purple haze. Right; just stay in the 10m outer disc.

"Oh, and I'll probably need to move around a bit. My speed is around 30 right now; hope it's not any trouble!"
 
[X] Plan: Surprise! I'm secretly invincible!

I wouldn't mind delaying Guangli to next week if necessary to fit in other minor actions, since we do have a month+ before green. I expect to be spending actions fairly continuously on this issue, rather than sprinting to complete them all.

Has music, has bag, has Sun scouting...makes me pretty happy. Other than Zhengui left out again, but that seems common to almost every plan. Guess that people are just sick of the action tax.

[X] Plan Find Meridians

Has all the minors I want. Id rather talk to our friends first before we start spending actions with cai and GG instead of doing it in same week.
 
The storm spirit mission. It is a lot easier to catch spirits if they are unaware you are coming. We sneak up on them and catch them, that will be the quickest way.
The point will still be the combat clash with the spirits.
The Li Suyin spider summons minor. They might remember that we were there before and that we stole their silk. Might be best to be as stealthy as possible.
The point of the mission is to defend her when and after she does her suplication ceremony, being sneaky about it doesn't really help since it's not Ling Qi but Li Suyin that's the target here.

Honestly it's the equivalent to saying we could train stealth by being sneaky when we go have tea with her...

I'll go with:
[X] Plan: Surprise! I'm secretly invincible!
I much rather go with CRX instead of double SuSu. (+ meizhen and AS trade)
One issue though: without an Argent Art we're missing the vent bonus:
Provides 5 automatic successes per week during the cultivation of 'Argent' techniques.
changing TRF or FZ to AM or AC would be best.

Switching since Thor's plan isn't getting enough support to compete and I really want the music minor.
 
Cliff notes reactions:

- why do I get the feeling we'll have the option to bind Zeqing down the line when we're Cyan+.
-- She did us a massive favor here, even if it was a big risky. Should do something nice for her (as simple as keeping her company).

- While Xiulan does training from Hell with her sister and Jian with his tiger, we're getting powerups from this random 4th realm spirit of ice and darkness.

- Jiao is like "getting tired of your shit Ling Qi", what with how Xin keeps paying more attention to us than him.
-- Xin is actually really helpful, not even counting that we got FVM/SCS/EPC from her hands.

- Holy hell is AE powerful for a 1st step Art. Look at those passives and compare to like FSA (which is kind of shit-tier compared to even Fleeting Zephyr)
-- kinda really want to get 1sr level in both AC and AS now just for the passive benefits, AM is nice and they should be on the same level, maybe better (because melee and self-buff).
-- "momentum"-style bonus dice might explain how Liling got that ridiculous 31 dice attack back in Thunderdome and nearly-as-high AoE.
-- probably don't want to fight Renshu face to face considering he probably maxed AE for his level and specializes and even more minions.
-- Still no Mantle art. Minions are ok but all the cool girls get Mantles.

- distinctly getting the vibe that AE is a trial gift from the Bloody Moon where SCS was Grinning.
-- then again SCS is very much becoming an assassination Art (massive 1st strike dice bonus, escape/stealth spec.. Just missing a melee nuke art to take proper advantage)

- who wants to bet the Argent Arts give nice permanent bonus passives when mastered?

- Fan Yu: o (Pity)
-- man if there's anyone with worse SL hell than Ling Qi it's Han Jian.

- Zgengui is so living up to his name. Maybe Xiulan is convinced now that Ling Qi wasn't joking when she named him?

- [] Try to figure out the locking formations on the last bag
-- sure would be embarrassing if this here contained some tier 1 cultivation drugs or something and we didn't get it before green, considering the little book of bone minions was less guarded.

- no "continue studying formations in the shaman's book" action? Not saying it's a good idea this week but it should be there.
-- when we do get to it we should pick up proper formation writing/etching tools (if they're a thing)
-- also give Suyin that fancy pen we found in YR's desk already.

- Ling Qi's issues with being touched seem to be building up to something.
-- seems to tie in with Zeqing and letters to mom. No idea where it's going though.

- no Meizhen music action ;_;

I would swap the Gan Guangli minor for the Su Ling one, but other than that I'm happy with it (bear in mind that I don't even bother trying to figure our the majors these days).
 
[X] Plan: Surprise! I'm secretly invincible!

It is a plan that finally has Qi spending time with Guangli, but more importantly it has the Renxiang action, because I suspect that beneath the expectations her mother had, and the duty she rigidly adhered they're kindred souls who both grew up alone. Admittedly given her childhood I doubt Renxiang consciously realizes this, but it won't take long for Qi to realize it might be true.
 
I just realised that cai is the only person who knows where we actually came from. We never opened up to anyone else that hey we were a street urchin. Like everyone thinks we were just some lowborn peasant .

Not even bai truly knows why we are the way we are

Xiulan knows that we escaped from home.

And Suyin know that our mom is a protitute.

Aaaand that's it.

We haven't been very open with our friends, no.

Suyin knows our mom's a prostitute and we were raised in a brothel. She also knows we're a bumpkin.

I'm also pretty sure Fu Xiang knows just as much as Cai does.
 
Ling Qi looked down with a grimace. "I'm sorry, that was unfair," she admitted quietly. Shifting her stance uncomfortably, Ling Qi considered the best way to change the subject. "Seeing her like that just…"

"I get it," he replied with a tired sigh, scrubbing his hand through his short hair. "I am going to go on like things are normal. She doesn't want pity, especially from me."

"That's… probably for the best," Ling Qi admitted. "Are you going to start doing group stuff again then?" She asked.

If your hoping that trading AM will result in Gu getting it, I think it's wishful thinking.

He can't just give it to her for the same reason we can't. She'd take it as pity and get upset.
