marshzd 48 Posted October 5, 2017 (edited) I went to make a Doji Courtier and noticed that I end up with a wasted point going down a particular path, which doesn't make sense. It's actually better stat wise to be an Asahina Courtier, than a Doji Courtier, because of the ring point dispersion. Doji Courtier -- +3 Air, +3 Water Crane Clane - +1 Air Doji Family - +1 Air Doji Diplomat School - +1 Air (Air is already maxed at 3, so this is where it gets wasted), +1 Water Standing in school - +1 Water Asahina Courtier -- +3 Air, +3 Water, +1 Anything Crane Clane - +1 Air Asahina Family - +1 Water Doji Diplomat School - +1 Air, +1 Water Standing in school - +1 anything you want This could be on purpose, but it stood out to me. EDIT: Clarified, added some color, and fixed a couple numbering mistakes. Edited October 5, 2017 by marshzd Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mobiusllls 43 Posted October 5, 2017 Doji Diplomat can choose other ring to put in place of the wasted air point. Same thing will happen to Hida Hida Bushi, i think, but with the earth ring 1 Bazakahuna reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Richardbuxton 7,319 Posted October 5, 2017 I believe there's text to say if you hit 3 and it would increase more you may choose a different Ring to increase, in trying to find that bit though 3 Bazakahuna, sndwurks and BrambleLamb reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vutall 128 Posted October 5, 2017 Page 26: If a choice would result in a ring rising above rank 3 during character creation, then you must choose a different ring to increase instead, as long as that ring would also not be increased above rank 3. 4 Bazakahuna, jmoschner, rsdockery and 1 other reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VaeVictis 1,107 Posted October 5, 2017 It's right on page 26 under "Core Identiyy (Clan and Family) "All characters begin with 1 rank in each ring and 0 ranks in each skill. You cannot rais e a ring or skill above rank 3 during character creation. Ifa choice would result in a ring rising above rank 3 during character creation, then you must choose a different ring to increase instead, as long as that ring would also not be increased above rank 3. Similarly, if a choice would result in a skill rising above rank 3 during character creation, then you must choose a different skill that is not already at rank 3 or higher to increase instead." 2 Magnus Grendel and player2885333 reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
