Next decade is 2021. I hope we don't have to wait a whole year.

Wow, she REALLY wanted to get rid of that poison, huh.
you are right, formally a decade starts at 1 and ends at 0. However, common language use where I come from tends to have decades start at 0 and end at 9, so by that definition 2020 is the next decade. I suppose that is true for quite a few others here too, so I guess we will just get the 'end of the decade' jokes two years in a row

@yrsillar I have a couple of questions for clarification regarding PLR's next level.
My first question is whether Ling Qi can move the Revel to her current location (A) after having it remain still at another location (B)? Next, what is the max distance between A and B for the revel to move to Ling Qi? Is it close, far, very far, distant, or something indeterminate? Furthermore, how would the Revel travel to Ling Qi, does it cross the space between A and B or does it just appear at A?
Emphasis added.

So where are these new abilities of Sixiang's listed? Maybe I just overlooked them, I'm kinda under the weather right now.

Ah thank you. Now that I see that, it leads me to my next question. What do the new advanced skills that I see here do? Color of Mind and Dream Step?

A new challenger approaches. We've dealt with Zhengui, CRX, and Sixiang. Now it's Xiulan's turn. (god, I hope there're no rolls for this one)
Some "rolls for fun",
Currently Ling Qi has to remain within its range so if she would leave it, it moves

Well folks, that's it for me.
All aboard the Moon Ship! May our voyage have puns galore!
10/10, that is so Ling Qi I love it!

Is it bad that since we learned that Ling Qi can now use Dream qi, my first thought was about creating a FVM like art but even more nightmarish?
Just imagine the possibilities!

That made me think, can we at some point make an illusion feel so real that our enemies doesn't know they are in a illusion? Something Sosuke Aizen or Shisui Uchiha level?

... What?
First, where did "everyone has at least A ran perception" come from?
Second, a 20% miss chance is incredible. Something that had even odds of hitting LQ now has 10% odds of success.
Adding an entire second conditional to getting hit seriously tilts the math in our favor.

She sounds like a Black Hole with the mist being the accretion disc...once she latches on she never lets go.
This goes right back to the Yellow breakthrough insight: Fear of loss stems from having things you value. If you have nothing you can lose nothing. Free to be nothing.
And Sixiang was nothing in truth till they found something they valued.
Immortality through remembrance.
Perhaps in the future, the song may be passed down to a worthy successor.
Hmm, so the conflict was reconciling being transient with character development? Like, you don't have to be either wholly permanent or wholly transient. You can change how you look and present yourself without changing your core, or vice versa.
Everything that lives is impermanent in its own way.
You can wait a little. Eternity is a long time.
*snort*
She got better at it. Less obvious now.
Open communication!
And hmm, a valid concern for a muse.
They play up the mystery and intrigue to extend interest normally.
Just that once Ling Qi adds you to her little family she'd never let you go.
Oooh yeah, Zhengui is right around the teen-ish mental age now.
Thats going to be a right stinker for a
Hmm, given the feats of cultivators, spirits and formations...yeah.
The difference is mostly that the waking world has a nice comfortable default its resting in. If the Dream is water, the waking world is clay. Just need to make it wet and you can mold it in ways that water would never support.
And theres the start to a manifested avatar!
[Moves Sixiang up the husbando rankings]
Thats a pretty specific band of results.
Does it work on those as strong as you are or stronger?
Also why doesn't it work on those more than 2 levels below?(or is this because with that big a strength gap you don't need the technique to force them down?)
Next level has true scrying!
Awesome, thats good enough to recon for overt threats at least.
Probably more difficult in qi heavy environments I bet though.
And everyone and their grandmother will have formation wards up for anything important
Oh hey a new advanced element. Wonder what we could do with it. Lucid dreaming for a start?
Ling Qi must be getting exceedingly confusing to view for those with low res Meridian-perception.
Woosh. This is a bloody nightmare to interdict. Once she gets in close she could pop out anywhere inside a Close range sphere without any additional effort. Limited for now, but I expect the Festival radius will grow as we advance it, since basically no form of physical barrier could stop her if it can't stop the party.
Sable Crescent Step lets us drop it onto a target.
Lunatic Whirl lets us 'equip' Zhengui onto the festival, where he can replicate his dancing tortoise feat from the party, and then Sable Crescent Step over and YEET a couple tons of Big Boy onto the attacker's head when we pop the party out in midair...
...or we pop him somewhere and he uses Stealth Rock under the cover of the Festival.
Say...if Sixiang can disguise as Ling Qi(Shapeshifter, shouldn't be a problem), it might be very funny to have people waste their attacks on a Physical Immune projection.
Does this mean we can give Six equipment now?
Banish them to the Shadow Realm!

Something that had even odds of hitting LQ now has 40% odds of hitting LQ. It isn't "20% less chance to hit LQ", it's "If it hits LQ, it has 20% to not hit us". So 20% of 50%, rather than 50-20=30%.
The way it currently works, it's a anti-group mook skill, as it can't work against either non-mooks or non-groups (as a 1vs1 against a mook still won't have it spend more than 1/2 charges at most and be generally useless). I really expected EDD to either begin at like 80% chance to fail or/and to have "When opponent's perception is greater than Ling Qi's stealth".
This is just... awkard.

@yrsillar , am I wrong, or are final multiplier missing here?

2 things:
- We can totally expect everyone to have B+ and likely A+ perception:
- Green 1 challenge targets already had ~B baseline perception, with some peers like Kang running near A.
- We're now green 3, soon to be green 4. In terms of potential foes we already know the barbarians have strong perception focus.
- EDD in practice is gonna contest effective perception, which means with enemy techs up, and guess what, PLR just lost the perception filter and debuff (and BKSD doesn't have one thanks to @AbeoLogos complaining).
- Your math is wrong, 20% miss rare on top of 50% hit means 50% x 0.8 = 40% actual hit rate, and 10% chance of using one of the charges.
