Currently on Mirage Isle and scoring constant grade B because I’m apparently not doing enough damage, but the raw numbers say otherwise.

I did a quick test and applied a damage multiplier with a game trainer and even with 100x the damage, I’m still not getting more than 3000 according to the grade A requirements

Beat the game last year and attempted a second playthrough on hard as I discovered there were several companions that I missed (and lets be honest this is one of the better, more complete wuxia stories out there).

When I briefly attempted a newgame plus before I found that through the first several portions of the game I was just 1 shotting everything in a way that took some enjoyment out of the game for me. So my question is what do you guys do to keep additional playthroughs fresh?

Any self imposed challenges?

Should I just no inheritance hard or extreme?

Interested to hear all your thoughts.

Guys I completed the pili school quest a while back and I believe I got the bad ending because I didn't meet Shang Tingzhu and it I didn't have Leng and Li when I finished the quest cuz I did it quite early. I found the culprit, we had a big fight during the demonstration with multiple new characters, and Zhao An explained a lot of the missing stuff to me. Now I'm in the discipline disciple quest and I keep hearing and reading online a lot about Shang Tingzhu and how the pili school quest affects the main story ending.

How big is the impact and should I be worried? Please don't give out spoilers.

For anyone that already played through the game and want to spice up their next playthrough

I highly reccomend this mod made by members of the WS discord group!

It allows you to find almost every single unique character in the game on the map or in different locations and switches their toggle to recruitable.

Theres over 30 different characters added

from main story characters who never join the party like the other 3 great detectives
to the red girls generals to all of the evil villains

Just wanted to raise awareness of it for anyone that likes "cheating" in characters that arent normally possible

in this episode i show extensive instructions about how to get the most out of consulting: 1.every new companion must be examined about what he/she can teach you, then gifted enough, then sparred to better get skills for free without spending thousands of martial points and lastly be consulted for the rest of the arts or skills.
2. every npc should be examined too. usually sparring is again better first to get stuff for free and then check with consulting what remains. only exception the one time consumable white ideogramms arts with which its better to first consult for you main character and then spar so that a second companion can get them too!

if you pair any taiji cultivation method with this lustered gem sword (second photo) that you get to forge only in the hepu manor, then you get massive attack and crit rate boost!

I really love exploring on my own but the game is so full of branching dilemmas that for example I mistakenly took the scorpion envoy path very soon in the game and lost the herbal saint path with which I would have healed my leng wuqing!please share similar experiences!

look How many armor and helmets I need to tailor to increase my level and have some decent equipment! The ingredients for forging are so costly that I regularly sell all my fortune!

Has anybody found a better way to increase level on tailoring and forging?

what do you think about the release in consoles?will it help provide more dlcs for the game in the future?

What's the things that are missing for you in the game? for me the only thing is that I would like to have all the battle traits of a modern tactical battle game inside battles, like buffs or debuffs from the ground you stand, Elevation bonuses, Walls, stairs, Other Objects that you can interact with the environment,pushes, grabs etc

As you probably all have guessed I'm playing like crazy the game so I just discovered a little mistake from this otherwise beautiful guide that we also host here in our Sidebar! In order not to lose Bai Jin you have to go to linchang city and not to the longmen canyon! of course if you dont have quick travel to linchang city on, you need to travel through the longmen canyon as if you enter valey of dragon's slumber bai jin will die!cheers!

Who's your favorite companion (if you can elaborate on why)?
