Sorry it's been a while, does this mean every additional Dot of alchemy cost 3xp or is that something else?

As I remember, a long time ago during the arc against the Fomorians, Molly found their alchemy laboratory. And it gave a discount on the purchase of third alchemy dot. This discount is likely reflected in the current price.
Demon The Fallen rulebooks.
New Lores are 7(favored) and 10(unfavored) to unlock, and 5*(dot level -1)xp to buy.
Faith is Current Level *7; buying Faith 4 is 21xp.
Abilities, Attributes and Merits are normal costs.
I have to check the costs of Apocalyptic Form powers; I forgot.
Fairly sure it should be 3X*current dot rating. Everything else scales like that. So, it would be 6 XP to buy Alchemy 3.
I still don't think we are meant to just buy merits mid-play.
Yes we are using Demon the Fallen
New Lore, from the demon's House*: 7
New Lore, from another House*: 10
Lore: Current rating x5
Background, with Storyteller approval: Current rating x3
Virtue: Current rating x2
Faith: Current rating x7
Torment, per point lost: 10
The Lore of the Fundament and Humanity are in house for Lash as well as Transfiguration and Awakening.
It's labeled under special has story information with it and sorcery is already listed with normal price that's why I asked.
QM hasnt objected.
Furthermore, we didnt have control of Lash or Lydia during chargen, and Lash can explicitly do that kind of thing with Flesh 5.

Might want to get rid of this bit. It's outdated.

I found the post. This is the reason why we have 3 XP cost for alchemy 3/ At least it started here. Maybe I remember wrong and it was something else...

Dinosaurs came in many flavors. Like potato chips.
Curse our low awareness.
It kinda devalues VEE if we can just buy merits normally with XP.
We can't use verdant emptiness endowment on ourselves though.
No it doesnt.
VEE is for minions, mooks and the like. Its not supposed to be used on your party members, whose character sheets you have influence on. And it cant be used on yourself.
Pretty sure that pushes us to E4 which is a big deal.
Splintered Gale Incarnation, Is a must have with Lash able to make separate pacts for each clone.
Verdant Emptiness Endowment. Also something we should get. Between VEE, and Lash we can majorly power up our forces. Also a must to take advantage of the deal for magical training from Winter, by granting the FFCF people the Legendary adept merit prior to starting the training.

In exalted proper you could grant your own wishes.
Dresden has Agg damage thats unhealed.
Molly is probably buying Alchemy 3, if not Alchemy 3+4, in order to access Regeneration Potion.
True, but it's more "in general" kind of situation. Why would VEE need to be able to grant merits, if merits could be bought with XP? At the very least I would limit the number of merits that can be bought very strongly.
I don't think we can buy story merits like followers backgrounds and things like that using XP but I think we can buy Personal merits like acute senses or tough or something that are contingent on us.
VEE can be used once a year.
And after being used three times it makes the beneficiary your minion for life.
Merits have to be bought with XP.
I dont actually see the issue.

I think you need to clarify about the price of alchemy. I just see that I found a discount on the fourth dot...But I vaguely remember either a retcon of this into a third point discount or a 3 ХР point discount separately somewhere. Or maybe I'm just confused. Do you happen to have a list of discounts for ХР?

Seriously? VEE is a 5 dot charm with a number of limitations, like only being usable once per year. Its core function is to grant people merits. If merits could simply be bought with XP, VEE's value would be near-worthless.

Its probably a good idea to spend a decent chunk of our xp on getting some abilities and/or attributes.
