Path of martial arts: leaked sneak peaks, and discussing thread

Nah been here since the beginning and though niki's writing has been somewhat inconsistent, i am still hopeful for him to not write in fake choices on a what seems to be important plot points
Today, I bring sad news, at least for poor souls like me who insist on playing Mortal and do the impossible to have an OP MC even with obstacles in the way... Nicky plans to nerf Martial Sovereign, reducing the economy from 50% (which I already consider insufficient) to 25%. According to my friend, Niky plans to increase the weekly Qi by 30% to compensate... Now, maybe I'm crazy or things have changed in the latest beta, because I remember the weekly Qi being only 15, so this plus 30% is only 20 (19.5) weekly Qi. How does that compensate for anything?
The justification was: "I just want MS (Martial Sovereign) to not be so mandatory........"
The justification was: "I just want MS (Martial Sovereign) to not be so mandatory........"
If he doesn't want ms to not be so mandatory he gotta lower the qi cost of things they're just high asf
I believe he did something like this a few months before too. He increased item costs and increased Qi per week to compensate. You're saying he's doing something like that again?
Did he say anything about lowering spell Qi costs in general? Surely he realizes that that's by far the main contributor for Martial sovereign to be so mandatory.
Regardless I don't think you should be too worried about being unable to make a strong MC. Winning by having high stats is just better than using spells in general.
Wait wtf, why would you punch yuang fang ?
Nah yue fang the moon goddess disciple
I was a Mortal adventurer like you once, then I got a Heavenly Difficulty in the knee.
60 qi per week AND you get to mostly skip the dogshit new pill system where you almost never get a +1 in the pavillion and have to spend half of your day savescumming.
Nicky should just lower the qi cost, i remember 60-80 Qi cost for spells in the arena, infusion also gets auto-spend in fights so you end spending double or triple what you expected.
If costs were a tenth of what they are it would make sense not to take MS. But they aren't so...
I know some, mostly fantasy:
-the wight king
-within your eyes
-vendetta (few and far in-between)
-vampire the masquerade: night road
There's some more but its more of magic fights instead of hand-to-hand and weapons, let me know if its your thing.
To be fair this whole martial sovereign system is a mess, old options that used to be covered by it arent anymore, like when we can gain our followers by punching with the gs, then there are times when it clearly should cost more qi but its still costs only 1 like in the fight with yu yeong (nimble feet girl)
Idk if its some hidden mechanic, bugs or just the version that im playing that is old but its certainly strange.
I've played Night Road and Vendetta as well. I enjoyed the fight scenes. I'll check out the other two.
didn't that wip die out? I haven't seen an update in forever
thats probably your dao level lowering qi costs like the other guy said
thing is its still not enough to justify not taking MS
It did, author moved on to write another if, shattered: oblivion and low and behold its also abandoned, sadly most wips are but thats life i guess.
