If you don't want people to react to your words don't put them out in a public forum.
The whole reason for posting things is so that other people will read them. You deliberately courted attention, don't complain when you get it.
TL;DR Expecting people to read your words but not wanting to read theirs is a dick move.

Nice! Really good linework.
Anyway, strength really isn't the best thing to do. With our dex-based build, we don't use it much at all (in fact, I can't remember any strength checks...).
If you were wanting to bump up physical, then stamina would be more useful - it gives us healthboxes, and we're close to another dot there.
Other than that, the other things people have said are good.

Panties, Revolution. Big Drawers. Parachute.
The condescension and superiority from them is the main complaint. Disagreement is fine and good, but "stupid" "ass-backwards" and other such comments implying that I'm some kind of moron for having the opinion I had? Not necessary, productive, or indicating that my vote was being addressed in an honest manner.
In your post in particular, you seem to be hammering in how stupid things are instead of attempting to engage properly.
Don't make this seem as if I was getting genuine engagement here and I'm being butthurt about it. I'm annoyed because I voiced an opinion and I got assholish responses in return.

Can anyone tell me what Power does in full?

It's the skill for pure spiritual arts, like AE. We didn't need it much because musical arts can make spiritual effects using Expression instead.
Honestly i would prefer rising Larceny instead. We are close to another dot and we may have trouble capping it before breakthrough.

It's a new stat, and we haven't used it much. I think it's for when we do spiritual attacks like the purple death mist from Abyssal Exhalation or certain debuffs from ForgottenVale melody, power determines chance of hitting the same way dexterity determines chance of hitting with a bow and arrow or Expression determines chance of hitting when doing a music based attack.

Ah, okay. Stamina's the favored choice then.

I thought it resisted dispels as well? Or is that resolve/resilience?

Ok, now I've got to stop you right there.
If someone says to me "The Earth is Flat in my opinion", Im perfectly within my grounds to say "Your opinion is stupid, here's why".
Just because you have an opinion doesn't mean you are free from having other people explain that your opinion is built off of faulty logic or information. And given the internet effect, expect those responses to be 100 times more agressive than normal.
It's "unarmed spiritual".
It's what things like AE, and probably Xiulan's arts use. It's also what dispels like Meizhen's art use. As noted above, we don't use it much because we use music instead.
Wow, that's kinda funny. If you actually read my post it's pretty clear that I'm stating MY opinion. I even start with 'Firstly, one of the things I like about FoD is that Ling Qi is not a meathead who thinks that she has to beat all her enemies into submission. That's a defining characteristic of hers as opposed to many (though hardly all) xianxia protagonists.' That's hardly a condemning statement, it's a statement of opinion, my preference for a sneakier protagonist over a classic xianxia one. I state that such headstrong attitudes are characteristic of xianxia protagonist, though not all of them.
If you think my condemning classic xianxia protagonists for arrogance and stupidity is such an 'assholish response' I suggest you avoid the 'Xianxia encompassing the world' fanthread in this forum which recommends xianxia fics. Also avoid most xianxia forums and reviews in general.

Then if you believe that your opinion is right, defend it.
Don't start playing victim, and go 'it's just muh opinion' all of a sudden just because I disagree, and use crass words.

Even if not, it's not her fault if a freak snowstorm just so happens to blow up out of nowhere.

That's resolve/resilience.
Dammit. We failed the perception check so we can't see how strong Sun Liling is
. Yrsillar, why do you taunt us so? .To be fair, if we just lose our dress we have plenty of time to recover before the tournament. It's manageable. And if it isn't destroyed, I would give us good odds on being able to steal it back at some point.
Like, if people think that flight is really what enables us to run away, then they've been ignoring the part where we can now cross ~75m is a single bound, ignoring terrain and going over cliffs.

Because taunting us with the things we want and never giving us to them is so much more rewardingDammit. We failed the perception check so we can't see how strong Sun Liling is
I mean, it works for major deities, and whats a God to a GM
No, power is used in dispel clashes (see how last week power got trained and the only mention of it was how easily Meizhen dispelled Ling Qi's fog).
Resolve and Resilience are used in the intial attempt to affect Ling Qi, if she tries to dispel an effect afterwards it's power (also used to protect Ling Qi buffs and debuffs from being dispelled).

I'd give some pretty serious consideration to just turning over the dress if I thought that it would make Sun Liling back off. If nothing else, I suspect we could get a better dress if we sign up with Cai as a retainer post-Green.
Sadly, I don't count that as likely.

No, that was an initial misconception that we clarified. See here:
Power is casting dispels. Resilience is resisting.
