The Path Unending (A Cultivation Quest)

Now that I think about it, do you guys think we could find a dog for Nokai here: [] Daiyu has discovered that one of the schools within Jingyi's Summit is home to an order of Spirit Beast tamers and trainers, and she is interested in their methods. She's mentioned that such tips could be helpful for Kukuni as well as Spirit Beasts; I will tag along to see what knowledge I can glean.
 
Another random thought but I shudder to think the carnage that will be unleashed if Kong Zi and Nokia ever have kids. You get Nokia's love of battle and '100% completion' approach to stuff combined with Kong Zi's near monofocused perfectionist tendencies. That kid is gonna spend a month in isolation doing a single charm that is honestly minimal before killing every monster in a 30 mile radius just to find some really niche product and because it's fun
 
[X] Plan Wondrous Things

I guess I can compromise on this plan, but I'm posting the whole thing because the block isn't showing up in the vote for some reason.
Edit: nvm, I guess I can't do that.

That's on purpose. Ves prefers we only mark the plan name because the long plan blocks make the tally annoying to scroll through.

It doesn't seem like a great tradeoff for me that 70+ voters have a harder time figuring out what they're voting for or vote without fully understanding their options for the sake of a faster tally.

Scrolling through sometimes hundreds of posts on a phone to track down all the detailed lists then trying to cross-reference them across pages is a bad time.

If the first person to post it posts the whole plan but without Xs in the boxes, then you can click on the first name under the plan and go to their post and read the whole thing.

Thanks for the critical info. That'll save me a lot of time. Though I feel for the people who don't read every post and are going to miss this info without it being pinned in the tally tool or something.
 
Just posting this in case anyone wanted to get behind it:

[X] Plan: Training Beasts
-[] Kong Zhi has come to Jingyi's Summit for one purpose and one purpose alone: to test the residents for the Spark. Clerk Ni would never let anyone shirk their duties even if he were so inclined to do so, and now he calls for Kong Zhi's aid. (This counts as 3 Actions.) (This action is mandatory.)
-[] The only true way to walk the Path Unending is to cycle the anam of the world. Kong Zhi has his Natural Treasures, but Jingyi's Summit also has half a dozen Natural Wonders carefully guarded and set aside for use by traveling Artists- for a fee, of course.
--[] 2x Spider's Serum, 1x The Ache of the Mind
---[] Warhound's Cry
-[] Jingyi's Summit is Zhuan Kun's home, and as such, the local schools are held to a higher standard. That standard must be enforced, and Zhuan Kun has made it clear that I am welcome to join him if I desire to test my skills.
-[] Daiyu has discovered that one of the schools within Jingyi's Summit is home to an order of Spirit Beast tamers and trainers, and she is interested in their methods. She's mentioned that such tips could be helpful for Kukuni as well as Spirit Beasts; I will tag along to see what knowledge I can glean.
-[] Zhuan Kun's training regimen was handed down to him by a group of his family members known as the Zhuan Clan Technique Masters. He is visiting them to tweak his skills, and has invited both Daiyu and I to come along for advanced instruction.
-[] The return of the Zhuan Clan's Young Master has sparked a festival on the streets of Jingyi's Summit. Whenever it is mentioned, Daiyu stares at me with an intent I would have to be far denser than I am to misread. I will escort her through the festival, and we will have a nice time. [MANDATORY]Optional
-[] Rumors are flying on the streets of the Summit about an incident on one of the peaks. It was something about vicious, man eating birds- and that has jarred free a half-forgotten memory. Or perhaps a dream? All I know is that something about vicious birds in Jingyi's Summit strikes a chord. I will investigate it to find out why.
-[] Send personal letters (free action, -2 bronze talents)
--[] To Fa (and friends)
---[] Tell her the broad strokes of the events in the Hills. Elaborate upon how we as a trio fought and drove off a Farmer. Postscript: we somehow started dating Daiyu due to finding and sharing a technique with her.
--[] To Mom (and family)
---[] Inform her of how we met and accidentally antagonized Dun Lihan, sadly got into Garden of Beasts, and the broad strokes of the Twelve Winds incident, for which the technique that Auntie Bi taught us was crucial. Emphasize that we got the Sen's Worldstream technique, the Blue Skies card, a new form, and that the Sen are likely in the market for an upgrade to some of their lesser security systems and may be open to the Kongs offering their services. We also look forward to introducing mom to our girlfriend. Postscript: The culprit of this event was a fan of Uncle Fang, we apologize for him for having to kill them.


Will ponder voting for a different plan later. I sort of feel like I want to see the Beast Tamers, which the current leading plan does not. :/

I like the idea of spirit beasts but am hoping for some interesting synergy with worldsteam in ZK's hometown. May switch to prince or a 'mon plan if they make a good argument/run.

[X] Plan Winds and Sights
Edit: Tactical voting

I'm sure we'll get to it. Eventually. When we have fewer cool social options available. We're never crafting again
 
Not to diss 'Plan Winds and Sights', but Zhi can use 3 pills and Cloud's Breath to use up all his cycling potential for Wind anam without the use of a Wonder.
Paying the 4 talents gets us a look at the Wonder, but likely doesn't benefit the progression in any way according to known cycling mechanics.

A number of people have pointed out that trying different Wonders has been mentioned as relevant and useful. They think the price is worth it.
