The issue is that money is mostly only relevant for the protag. I doubt that ysrillar bothers to track how much money each outside characater has, earns and spends, means each fight we'll enter will be against someone with a free ~100Qi on hand.
I'd rather start on figuring out what the ??? bonus actually is and where it came from, though we might have to wait until we see Ling Qingge in person.
There's also the issue that we currently are working on, at least four elements already, arguably up to seven.
Yes, I am much more interested in developing Ling Qi as her own person with the elements that fit her than trying to find the elements that fit her bloodline the most.
Yeah, the good thing about our talent is that we don't need to focus on the elements we find easiest, though in this case I'm more interested in Qi's background for narrative reasons than mechanical: I'm honestly curious what it is, and I think it's worthwhile for her to spend at least some time looking into it herself.
So far ??? has given us bonuses to Wind, projectile attacks, dexterity and heaven.
That's the tradeoff for choosing the streetrat with absurd talent and no resources instead of the noble with mediocre talent but lots of cash. Given how absurdly powerful talent is, in order for the starting backgrounds to all be balanced there needs to be powerful advantages to having money that the street rat can't take advantage of. Something like a pill that the nobles can use casually but that we have to ration our use of carefully fits the bill perfectly.
For those interested, the choices are Elder Zhou, Sun Liling, Su Ling, Han Jian, Gan Guangli.
Speaking of, approximately when will we be getting a reply to our letter? *vibrates in anticipation fast enough to start boring a hole to the core of the planet*Saving her for you actually meeting her in quest
Anyway front page and market are updated. I did bump up the prices on a couple of the old pills a bit to match the new paradigm better
Dex/Manip/Stealth/Athletic/Dodge/Archery should be unlocked I think now, as well as bronze cultivation.Saving her for you actually meeting her in quest

I don't suppose Su Ling has offered us a price yet for additional Silverblood pills?Saving her for you actually meeting her in quest

I think there are two goals here: get us to choose the Moon route at all and choose the New Moon route in particular.
Probably not. We need to finish getting to EPC5, and then I believe EPC6 is gated behind Green 2. Which would mean that EPC7 could be gated behind Green 3, which is extremely unlikely.
EPC6 is also early green, but likely gated behind a moon quest, which is actually slower for us. So we need EPC5, then moon quest, then EPC6, then EPC7 in appraisal. At best this would be 4 actions (moon quest), 4 actions+ actions (EPC6) then 4+ actions (EPC7), so it's just not doable.
On maximizing end year fighting power, yes, it's not useful, but it impacts Xin and Elder Jiao's assessment of us and is more efficient on longer timescales.
