Aura Clash: leaks, sneak peaks, memes and discussion thread.

[Hackett Thrail]

I mean poison immunity in a world where Kuro users can disguise as your family and wife and than put like 40 different poisons in your body seems pretty useful.

And while Kii and Mido also have regeneration, it's not enough to the point where itll be a significant part of a fight against someone around your power level, where's the flayed god foundation allows you to keep regenerating so long as you have enough Chi, essentially allowing you to take no physical damage. Which i think is especially important as we get stronger since the stronger you get the longer the fights would be around your power level.

Again if you are strong then poison literally doesn’t work on you. Because the poison is weaker than you. Your own blood gapes the poison in your veins

That’s why at the highest level, everything devolves right back to hand to hand. Tricks stop being effective and just becomes distractions.

The only good use of it would be to protect your family from the poisons and curses and… That’s not how the Flayed God foundation works.

You make a point but I’d argue that’s such an edge case it’s practically a niche.

The same applies to normal Kii and Mido. They’ll keep regenerating so long as they have Chi in their body.

And even if our fights get longer, it’s literally harder to damage us. If you get an arm blown off, sure, you’ll be able to regrow it… But you got your arm blown off in the first place, means you’ll just regrow it again, and again and again.*

The trick is to be strong enough that you can’t have your arm blown off in the first place.

Regardless, I feel I should preface this by saying.

I’m not saying Flayed God is mid trash. Far from it.

I actually think it’s the 2nd best out of the 4 foundations on offer.

JDF’s Dragon Nest is the best, followed by Flayed God, followed by Jade Lotus Chi, followed closely by whatever TrueGold Foundation he gives.

Of TrueGold’s foundation, he actually offers some gems and a lot of mid. The Hellscape one and Lunargoth runes are the big bonuses iirc.

*To give an idea how this was deployed at a high level. When Eldra, BeastBone and TrueGold fought Guzzy together, BeastBone’s entire job was to die.



Literally.

His job was to focus all of Guzzy’s attention onto himself and keep dying over and over and over from her attacks so that Eldra and TrueGold can push Guzzy back out to sea and stop coming near the shipping routes.

 

[daha]

That confirm my guess that the "flayed God" foundation is stronger after all; in the fight against the "white tiger", when we use the "Jade lotus" foundation "dragon nest" ability, we burn through it's Chi by using more energy than it erase, but with the "Conqueror Aura" we literally subdue it.
Thank you for sharing this information with us, I've been agonizing over Wich foundation to choose.
On a side note, should I marry Sakura to Jin or kill her? And can we sleep with mitsuka?

We understand that Eldras's foundation gives us Jade chi, the ability to gain AP passively, to gain a third element, and to learn Harmony. There is no world in which flayed god is stronger.

Not to mention healing plus the free +1 to every skill as well even if that's not significant in the grand scheme depending on how you play.

 

[any name u wish]

I Agree that flayed god is trash. Anon should really buff it. I am not saying this because it's my favourite foundation.

Dumbest **** I’ve ever heard.

You say you want your brother to have discipline and money but you give him a broken mortal woman who’s broke.

They won’t even have a kid bro, she hates Jin and he hates her.

You literally gave your own brother the bad ending, Sibling of the Century right here.

Also, MC of the 3rd book will be MC’s grandchild if MC is married or Jin or Rin’s grandchild if you aren’t.

Jin’s grandchild as the 3rd book protagonist isn’t set in stone.


It’s bait bro, it’s so obviously bait that I bet Anon added it specifically for people to absorb like gluttons and it will give them a bad ending.


Lmfao, HARD agree to disagree.

Eldra is the strongest of the three by a long shot, that should tell you all you need to know about who’s foundation is better.

But whatever, that’s just me.

Do not marry Sakura to Jin. This is just disrespectful to your brother and killing her is a waste of a good asset.


Misuka, the Kitsune announcer is a fling, discord members were begging for her to be an RO but Anon put the boot down. Fling at best, and only because he’s a generous man.

You guys forget she’s a Kitsune, don’t think just cause Kitsune MC’s parents are good doesn’t mean all Kitsunes are good, they are literally outliers. So much so that MC’s maternal grandmother literally skipped out on the family like normal. Misuka just gonna dump a baby on you and dip.

Oh, and get the idea of killing Mao or Goro out of your head. Goro will be your Archon brother and it’s gonna be a bad day in the office if you kill him.

Mao even till the end of this book and start of the next will be above you, either in AP as normal MC or Experience and skill as JDF(same advantage he has over Jack).

By the time either of you are in a position to beat him to death, he’s not your concern anymore because he’s back home in the Wild Lands.

Personally, I wish we’d get the option if our relationship with him is strong to be able to bring him with us. I’d love the option for an Uncle Mao for my children Lmfao.

jin wedding day bro, he's gonna get his gyaru sakura

mao gonna get skinned alive man, just like goro, this is not poma, we don't have that weak diplomatic **** with character, stop putting them on pedestal

As far as I know, it's most likely just the lore. Archonate is a sworn brotherhood, so killing each other is obviously forbidden and I also doubt they're going to close eyes at you messing with Jack's dad, and Jack himself. Funnily enough going full psycho on them suits poma more than Ac but that'd be my opinion.

 

[Hackett Thrail]

Keep dreaming bro.

You can attack Mao all you want but the moment you join the Archonate, he’s a protected class just like your family.

Mark my words lads, the Archonate is gonna beat your asses into the ground. MC, Jack, Goro.

All of you.

***. Meet. Ground.

Enjoy the rivalry while it lasts, once Book 2 starts, it’s Joeover. Y’all gonna be taught manners by the real masters xd

What this guy said.

Players gonna player but the lore is absolute. Our rivalries, while a big part of the MC’s journey is actually just kiddie stuff to the Archonate, they will fix all of you.

jin wedding day bro, he's gonna get his gyaru sakura

Enjoy giving your brother the worst ending for him lmao.

I’d prefer to keep the Gyaru for myself.

Side note, unless we help her, Sakura won’t be in Book 2. The time skip means she dies of old age lmao.

Forcing Jin and Sakura to marry is literally crippling yourself just to laugh for a moment.

Which is… Kinda pathetic, ngl.

You want Jin to have someone? Just you wait.

Anon isn't nicky, there's no way he'll force us to be such a weakling that we get beat down like you say.

 

[shot]

Anon isn't nicky, there's no way he'll force us to be such a weakling that we get beat down like you say.

It's mostly a matter of common sense tbh more than humiliation just to humiliate you. Ultimately Archons are above you both in Ap and experience, that'd be like trying to defy Yang, Kaito or Eldra. Most of them are nice tbh, they won't treat you like Poma elders treat you but they can trash you. However, you trying to kill your fellow brothers or well the Empire's very expensive elite soldiers , you'd force their hands. I'm sure there will be rivalry shenanigans, it just won't escalate to blood feud i assume.

 

[TheO1O]

You want Jin to have someone? Just you wait.

I've always assumed Jin would end up with the baker's daughter (?), while Rin would be with Jack...kind of like a Vegeta and Bulma dynamic on the latter.

It just feels like those are their natural partner choices if the player doesn't intervene, like marrying Jin to Sakura

 

[Odinleani]

If to be fair we could try to ragebait Mao and trick him into removing his protection status by have him either attack us or our parents.

Don't get me wrong the guy is definitely harder to trick than Jack, but I think it is possible.

 

[Hackett Thrail]

Anon isn't nicky, there's no way he'll force us to be such a weakling that we get beat down like you say.

Yes they ****ing will Lmfao. It has nothing to do with the fact Anon isn’t Nikky.

You are now soldiers in an army, you think they are going to tolerate your bullshit with Jack and Goro?*

Every single Archon in the Archonate is above you; in AP, Experience, Respect, & Prestige.

You are the new guy, the ant in a den of Godzillas.

*And this isn’t only for you, Crusher Jack’s douchebag attitude and Goro’s sniveling arrogance means both of them will get their asses beat down to learn respect.

I… Kinda feel bad about saying this but…

Jin, by virtue of being our brother and carrying our Clan name means he’s above her.

Personally, I think it would be nice for Jin to get someone who actually likes him like the Baker’s daughter.

..

…

But if I find myself a nice warrior woman for him later on that actually benefits my Clan…



Rin is something I won’t be talking about because… I don’t wanna talk about it

Don't get me wrong the guy is definitely harder to trick than Jack, but I think it is possible.

You want to ragebait the guy who almost ragebaited you into getting yourself killed by him?*

Mao isn’t a scrub like Jack. He actually grew up among real masters in the Inner Kingdom, he knows the game from nobles.

And worse of all… He actually follows the law unlike other Wild Landers. He won’t fall for you.

*Back in Thunderfall, he didn’t even lift a finger when you beat up his son, he just called Jack weak and moved on.

He only did something when you almost killed him. Even then, it was within his rights to kill you for that, he didn’t.

Instead, he petitioned the only Noble and leader of Thunderfall Village to handle you, as the law demands.

When your Mother shot him in the head with a Crossbow, it was well within his rights to rip her apart, he didn’t bother.

When things didn’t go his way, he tried to bait you into attacking him so he had just cause to kill you by saying he’s gonna grape your mother.

MC was going to attack without the player’s input. Without Khan’s intervention, MC is dead.

Mao is an ******* but… He’s just an *******, not a monster.

Despite how he may look, Mao isn't stupid. He's the one who tell you about the danger of Honsha politics at your arrival on Nanhou. It'd be better to use his enemies or rivals Masters of the Wild Lands against him. However well good luck not getting caught by your bosses, his rivals are prolly older by centuries and politically savvy and by the time you reach that level... is it even worth being that petty? I do respect the hatred tho.

Just get him to accidentally commit tax fraud and see how the archonate switch on him

They might be above in terms of the other 3 but without cheats can't you min-max up to hundreds of thousands of ap or even millions? I do understand for normal people it would be the case but the player is special enough to make the argument that they wouldn't be any worse off than the archons (but if anon makes the creative decision to make it so you aren't that strong I would understand, it would just leave a little bit of a bad taste in my mouth)

???

What is bro smoking???

Whatever AP you have right now is just fluff, bro… The narrative reigns supreme and even best case scenario. MC at the end of Book 1 will max out at…. I can’t really remember but it might be 5k AP, that’s normal MC.

JDF maxes out at 8k AP iirc.

This is the end of Book 1.

The Archons in the Archonate, the weakest ones are 10.5k iirc.

They are the weakest ****ing ones, the dudes who probably graduated before you. 10k.

They won’t be the ones teaching you.

People like Eldra(SnowSteel), Kaito(BeastBone) and Yang(TrueGold). They are basically the pinnacle of the Archonate.

My memory is weak rn but iirc, Eldra is currently 18k AP, Kaito is 14k~15k AP, and Yang is 16k~17k AP.

There could be a few 20k Archons I believe but they are about to ascend so their business is their business.

So again, the AP number when you play is just fluff. Past 5k, it’s all fluff. You are only as strong as the narrative, the narrative is your god and you dance to its tune.
