All of this sounds good. Sounds like everything's gonna be good.
It's less that and more I don't really know how to go about getting art.
You can check SV's own artist commission registry to see artists willing to make art for money. Find someone whose style and prices you like, then send them a message to ask them if they can draw something for you. It's good to have reference images (images that approximate what you want (e.g. a picture of a soul reaper so the artist knows what the uniform looks like) on hand when asking. In my experience, you send money to the artist's paypal when they've finished working on the piece, but it's always best to ask about payment details before the artist starts drawing.
I don't know. Feels like we should get our blade skill to Student, just so we aren't dependent on out punching every hollow we meet.
Not influencing the vote or your build or anything here, but if I run another quest hand-to-hand isn't going to be an option.
That doesn't mean you need to raise it now, or focus on it early on because it will stay cheap to raise if you do chose to focus on other stuff.
There are other ways of avoiding damage in Bleach other than running away from it. Granted, those aren't all available to a base-level Soul Reaper, but be aware there are other options out there.
My goal is more, get the basics to a basic level(student) before we specialize. I'm raising unarmed because one of our combat techniques should be reliable, but after that, it's all in on raising Movement Arts and Reiryoku Manipulation to Notable.
Problem is that long terms plans are incredibly difficult to follow on quests, I know it, one of my plans for a quest I follow on another site is getting ignored despite having been followed until now because a shiny thing appeared, this constantly happens on all quests.
I know, I've only found one quest where everyone stays on the same page. But still, we saw in this last battle where Chiyu was undeniably the faster opponent, but was unable to exploit any of it into a reliable attack without straining her powers. A strong foundation is the key to every great warrior.
