Path of martial arts: leaked sneak peaks, and discussing thread
- Thread starter Foulwarden
- Start date
I'm going to surmise this is like pre-pre-pre-pre-pre-alpha and just a showcase of what the new mechanics might look like. Some of these checks are actually impossible from the little I've played and the damage is too high.
I think karma more diversited than we think. There definitely personal or relationship karma as we seen in TW flashbacks (Blood King her karmic ties with TW through marriage with Tang Xue) or with Fu Bing relative. There definitely Heaven karma as we know. Most likely there also good/bad karma as we seen with DES and their formation against evil.
Isn't martial artist also use Dao? Their spells and arts is also Dao, their problem is with lack of qi, meridians and dantians to cultivate properly. Other arts not exactly the truth, art it just number of actions you need to use simplified version of Dao path. Learning art not equal to Dao comprehension or learning Truth. Cultivation truth is how exactly they use Dao path that they comprehend, LB give example with 2 fire cultivators how they use same Dao path differently. Dao comprehension and learning you own truth is different things.
I agree, dream is a good way to balance the lore between routes, on one hand we have LB who have a bunch of interesting things to say about the Dao and stuff. On other hand only thing we can get out of Tang old fart is “LB iS sHen LonG mU, I’M SuRe Of it”.
I’m just against the way the game make the Wu Heir gain power so passively via sleep very hard. If not some flashback about the Qi manuals, maybe learn to utilize our GS to its full potential or something.
Its just the blood hunter fight or yeong is ready too? also what does this rework means for the next updates? will he keep working on the tournament or pause it for some time?
It's just the BH fight and about the other things....I don't think anyone knows
I played the newer version, it has both fights, cool stuff, biggest difference was the yeong fight but It didnt really changed that much, the new attributes are qi force (probably to used to reduce the difficulty of the spell power checks) and spell power (it represents your dao and checks that use it, for each dao lv you get 100 spell power)

Is the nimble feet girl from the arena
I have to say, Nicky is to be congratulated on these new changes to the fights. He really did it right this time. The fight against the vampire was already the best in the game, and even then it felt like an extremely difficult and painful fight, but now, with enough stats, you even have the option of basically giving Yutai a one-sided beating, without taking damage even once. Here, look at the difference between the original ending and the alternative one (I think the bloodier ending is cooler, but I also like the alternative):
As for the modifications to the fight against Yeong, it's nowhere near as amazing as the one against the vampire, but being able to finish her off with a single blow and the option of being able to defeat the Shangtian ghost without too much difficulty is great too. And, of course, finally being able to pass a stat checks without taking damage right afterwards is beautiful.

Kind of like the Heavenly dao, human dao LB speaks of. Makes sense.
Martial artists use a very simplified broken down version of Dao arts, using actual dao would require immense concentration and qi on top of that so TW broke down actual dao into IE arts. I think dao in itself is detached from cultivation, yes to use dao to its full capacity i believe one must have qi but i think the dao seed enables one to use it more effectively, strengthen the art and reduce the exhaustion it causes for IE users. I might be wrong but how i see it is that dao is basically truth of the universe. For example, we'll take fire element as our dao. Fire is real and true to the universe but how we comprehend that truth is different from others. When you start to understand what that dao path is with extreme relevence to the universe, you start to form a dao seed in your mind, which stores what you consider as the absolute truth about your dao. Ruo was gifted sword dao by the heavens, he has an innate understanding of the sword from birth. But when that understanding develops the more he ponders on the sword is when he starts to form the dao seed. when it completes, it becomes his version of what a sword is supposed to be and never deviates from that. All of his sword arts depend on that understanding to take shape. Thats why i called the GS as kind of a blueprint. Depending on how deep that understanding is, you get the level of you dao seed. Our Dao is transcendent, so its the closest it is to the absolute truth of the universe instead of being a part of it. We dont see Wu Heir ponder on that understanding because thats a game mechanic called comprehend dao with the dao exp. So dao comprehension is learning your own truth from the absolute truth.
Imma be forming my own dao seed by the time im done here.

To be fair I feel like book one is pretty close to ending. Seeing as it'll be over soon after the Ruo fight in the tourney.
Finally a actually good and fun option that goes to show mc aura
