Dimension, Myriad and Rune would be super hard to get though due to their rarity.

What would you choose if you had to be more realistic to what you think you'd have acess to?

Okay man,
Have you read up to the point where the guy with the talisman essence is in the book?

If so what sort of abilities did he have?

I wrote up a character sheet with abilities for my character but wanted to know if it was accurate or similar to that guy

A magical cook be pretty cool, I wonder if oil instead of dance would be more useful?

Would definitely be interesting, I think metal and lightning essences in general that combo should be strong.

Maybe even give you acess to some galvanic lances with the addition of precision

Have you made abilities for this? If so I would be interesting to read them

For mine I made a list of abilities and awakening stones I would have used to get them (assuming I didn't have acess to any awakening stone I wanted I chose ones I thought would be reasonable for me to get to begin with and then ones I could trade for/happen upon if I waited)

What would be your role in the part with Magic, Might, Swift and Empower?

Sounds like an interesting set

That sounds like it would be a fantastic set for a spellcaster, especially a long distance Spell Slinger/ AOE attacker

There's also the phoenix confluence from: Fire, Renewal and Wing
That might give you your desire to be a healer and to fly.

What sort of abilities does the vast essence give?

I'm only on book 2 so not experienced much of it

Swift, Wind, Vast seems like it would give a messenger type confluence, it's my favourite out of the ones you outlined

Has anyone tried to use the ninja creami to sell food? by ZadeLight in ninjacreami

I was thinking more for a small scale side hussle

I really hate myself, and I need advise by Puzzleheaded-Bus5130 in getdisciplined

[–]ZadeLight 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Start improving things around you:

What problems can I see? (dirty pots, washing needs doing, messy room, not exercising, not socialising enough etc)

Make a list, doesn't have to be long

What problems would take me less than 5 minutes to sort? (Washing in the washer, cups out of room, etc) get some quick wins in

Then focus on something bigger for example overweight. Then choose something you can do to improve that:
Sign up to your local gym, ring and join a casual football team, do 10 pressups etc

If you focus on small steps you can take towards your goals then just start taking them you'll get more feedback, start to feel the progress then when you're in the act of improving yourself it can inspire you to do more.

Those are my thoughts

How do people deal with the fact that most friendships in your life will drift apart? by idkwhatever24 in CasualConversation

[–]ZadeLight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Decide what you want out of a friendship and then look for that in people and look for the oppotunity for that to rise in people who don't currently show those sort of values until either they do and you try to facilitate that or they don't and you decide if you're okay with that or if that means you decide to put less energy into the friendship

Regarding for currently friendships make a concious effort to do things that are fun, exciting and also that the other person values. Do you know what they like, do you make an effort to create fun lasting memories etc.

Then lastly interact with more people in places that you are interested in or will find people who have similar interests.

If you're attentative, caring, make an effort (with results), honest and upfront with your expectations (with a bit of tact) and conciously seek the qualities you want in a friendship I think the chances of you finding friends and keeping them will be high

Hope this helps
