Shugenja Wedding planning.

[Kyosei of the Isawa]

So, who wants to make the final earth roll? I can commune pretty good, but the actual level 5 casting roll is a bear. Not sure I could ever make it. Ah, it's been changed to level 3, a little more reasonable.


Who is the officiant? For Lore Theology, if I use Fire Kami's Blessing first, and a void, I can roll 10k5 on the Theology roll. Anyone better?

My base theology, before any changes, is 6k4.
My base Commune on Earth, is 8k4.
My base Importune is 6k3.

I have 3 void, and Fire Kami's Blessing, and Earth's Touch if it's needed.

[Jin]

As long as we have a number of Shugenja participating and succeeding the Earth Importune hopefully won't be too bad.

Theology: 5k4 after Void not counting any buffs that might be given to him
Earth Commune: 7k5 after Void not counting any buffs that might be given to him
Importune: 7k4 after Void not counting any buffs that might be given to him (skill), 7k5 after Void not counting any buffs that might be given to him (casting)

I suspect we'll have someone better for each though so Jin will probably just be adding to the regular Commune pile.

[Seidou Satone]

I know Haruyo has Earth 5.

[Canary]

Adjusted to TN 30 as it was originally meant to be.

[Hanzou]

Base Theology: 4k3
Base Commune Earth: 6k3

[Seppun Chisei]

I roll 9k5 on Theology before any modifiers. Which I think is good enough to allow not spending a void, which we'll probably need for later.

Will do my best to add +5 to the big commune roll!

[Jin]

The base commune is just TN 10 so makes sure you jump in if you're a shugenja - we'll need all the +5s we can get,

[Nozomi]

I know Haruyo has Earth 5.

I was going to say that either of the blind characters are probably the most logical choice. One is an Earth primary with an Earth of 5. And the other, I believe, can hit 9k6 on their Earth tests. It's kind of funny, but the blind girls are actually high quality leaders for this roll.

Is Haruyo Dutiful, or is she Self-Taught?

[Seidou Haruyo]

Self taught, I'm out here straight flexin' on my Earth Roles.

[Seidou Satone]

I'm not sure, though she is tapped for the Portal Closing event I believe as well.

[Nozomi]

Self taught, In out here straight flexin' on my Earth Roles.

Ok, so, at this point I'm just going to assume you're IR 2 as a shugenja, which means with Void, you're rocking a 10k7 spellcasting roll on the Earth Commune. That's approaching early Tadaka levels. So, just saying, when it comes down to the base commune control roll of a Mastery 5 spell, you are almost certainly the most qualified for this roll in the game.

[Jin]

From my understanding the portal event is a different 'timeslot' - we can be in both.

Just don't burn all your void if doing both.

[Seidou Haruyo]

Perhaps. Though, I don't know if I want to steal the spotlight of this show. I'm not IR2 though, so that might help even me out a little.

Edit: Then again I do have the talent for Earth basic trio soooo maybe that ups me again.

[Jin]

Do still join for at least the basic shielding commune though - that has no character limit.

[Seidou Haruyo]

That much I can do.

[Nozomi]

From my understanding the portal event is a different 'timeslot' - we can be in both.

Just don't burn all your void if doing both.

This is my "Non-Shugenja" understanding as well, that first all the shugenja we can spare from fighting are working to make the shield happen so we don't all die horribly, and then we're trying a last ditch effort to seal the pit with Fu-Leng's help. So, as long as the key shugenja (Haku for Void, Haruyo potentially for Earth, you for Water...) still have slots left and don't blow all void, we're fine.

And haruyo, 9k7 v 10k7 is still *laughs* 9k7. Hah, I don't think anybody is going to outstrip you and Haka for the Earth Commune ability.

However, it probably is not a terrible idea, since the "Portal Closing" event is not listed if you guys just double-check with Canary birb-sama if it will be a separate event or how that'll be handled.

[Jin]

Remember you need to join the thread before it opens - so about two and a half hours countdown remaining.

If you're a shugenja please be there so we can at least get the commune bonus.

[Ongaku no Ryoko]

I'm going to be there, but not super likely to hit those rolls, because, being a non-traditional-shugenja, I don't have spellcraft.

[Jin]

Honestly we just need as many bodies on the commune rolls as possible so we don't autofail if monsters get through and take one or two of us out.

[Jin]

Looks like Kyosei and I are tied for Spellcraft/Earth - anyone beating a 6k3 before void? (Haruyo, I assume, if she does join)
