@TrueWolves That sounds like a solid build for this kind of thing, but who should the third advisor be for this? It's possible to have three advisors at once nowadays instead of just two, due to town bonuses (HQ level 8 in particular, if I recall correctly).

Forge 100 for everything is currently impractical, but doable. First visit each area until all local gear is at level 100. Be prepared, though, getting the Kite & Rapier will take at least a few months. The optimal build to doing so is:
- Have at least level 12 Scroll & Forge History and Records Archives, preferably 13, In Area 1
- Have Hongren (Area 3 Monk) as the Co-founder and Martin (Area 2 Attack 5) & Darius (Area 2 Defend 2) as your Masters.
- Make sure all jobs are within 1 level of each other and have Yukimura (Area 3 Samura) & Tateoka (Area 3 Ninja) as Advisors.
- Once at level 2k, Sword & Shield the Rapier & Kite until at 300 fam in both, then make that fighter a master until all 3 masters have 300+ fam in Rapier + Kite
- Set scroll research to only be on Rapier and Kite once everything else is at 30+
- Wait 4~8 months using secret lineage buffs
However, as this'll take months, you may be better off maxing all the advisors for the passive effects and fame bonus along the way.

@nopus1 I believe the Rapier and Kite Shield show up as import gear in the shop for all three areas as well, and I think that's intentional. What'd be weirder to me is if either of them suddenly started showing up as local gear.

For the purpose of forging, it looks like Rapier and Kite Shield are considered foreign gear in all three areas. Is that the case for other people?

@jethan0823 Area 3 is just that hard, coming from a defend stance main. Opponents at high levels have even more award power-ups (or "Abilities") in Area 3 than they would at the same level in Area 2 and especially Area 1. You can see these by clicking on the opponent's rank icon. As for getting everything to forge level 100, you may want to go for that in the area that you have the most historical fame in; that will result in faster production speeds, thanks to job archives increasing job level-up speeds.

@DylanS392 I get it. You have to move your mouse & click, twice, every time you manually save your game. That gets annoying. Until it saves you. Not to discredit you, but it's possible even with the popup to overwrite your main playthrough with a save file that you made of a different playthrough entirely (if you have 2 playthroughs of Sword Fight going at once). An option to remove that safeguard could result in 1 misclick costing you a LOT of progress (some people don't always know where their cursor is) or set an error in stone (say, you accidentally make a new school just before you get a difficult award & you hit save instead of load because you're too used to hitting save). The prior could also happen to a lesser extent between 2 versions of the same playthrough if you haven't manually saved your progress in a while. I hate to say it, but I don't think this idea's going to become reality; some people don't know they need the inconvenient safety net until they fall.

@GunHusky each percent of weakness is 1% less in your stats after all other calculations. E.g., you have 500 health and 100 all other stats. 1% weakness would make that 495 health, and 99 all other stats. 50% weakness would be 250 health and 50 all other stats.

I really don't understand the weakness system. Could you please make a video and upload it to YouTube as an example? It's really hard for me to understand. Thank you very much.

For anyone who has been playing this game for a while and is trying to figure out how the new forge works, you have to turn tutorials on first to unlock it.

for some reason chromium based web browsers sometimes fail to load webgl2 content, easiest bypass i found is making a shortcut with cpu emulation, "C:\Program Files\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe" --use-gl=swiftshader" this worked for me but still dunno why it happened in the first place

Man, I love this game it's Great!! When you get a chance put this on steam. However I feel there should be a option to have a button to see how to conquer, scout and invade maps to just review.

@Askei omg thank you so much. No I honestly have been playing on and off for some 5 years or so. Apparently I had not finished South Blight 3 part 2, only scouted, so it seemed finished. The campaign seemed weird, needing 2 weeks to scout an area.

also for old trade route 4, you need to go on each side of the map and conquer the flag tiles there to unlock the next two maps. can't fully scout it yet. and then conquering the middle flag in either south trade route 1 or 2, will make Old Trade Route 4 and the rest of the South trade line much easier to complete.

@dj14100 only conquered or scouted? have you been purging the maps? unlocked by doing south blight 3 part 2, 3 and finishing the Purifying Training. Completely purging a map make adjacent map much easier. Require to have all three zombies to be purified. for purging progress to be gained. To more efficiently do that, I recommend putting in their Fighting Tactic ''Enemy Condition Not Purified - Other Weak Attacks'' and ''Other Chance Always - Other Boost 10% Purify''

How in God's name are you supposed to finish the final campaign? I have conquered or scouted every map except for South Blight 8 (necromancer, can't even invade first level -> no BP income -> useless) and Old Trade Route 4 (Blight pulls me down so far I can't even invade some tiles 3-4 tiles away from start. There are still 6 locked Goals I have no info on and I really don't know how to progress at this point. Base game is still awesome and love the third area but not knowing what the reward for finishing the campaign is bugs me a lot.

(4.1) QoL Request C: Please add a profile section or a settings option, maybe requiring awards unlocks or lineage upgrades, to save rival master skill-allocation between schools - they already save between runs within-school so why not between schools? (4.2) QoL Request D: Relatedly, please add an (unlockable) option to auto-allocate all three masters’ mastery skills according to "Active Profile's Template" when I swap out any rival master, so I don't have to manually do it 3 times every time. Thanks, sincerely, a braindead assault-stance user.

(3.1) QoL Request A: Please add a setting to disable the popups like "Can't spar until the current fight has ended" and "You Can't Replace a Rival Master at the end of a fight" - I'm not trying to cheese and swap masters turn by turn like in year 1. The setting would just make the button not work but alleviate the obnoxious popup punishing me for pressing the spar or hire button 0.1 seconds too early. Either that, or have the setting make the popup go away on its own when the fight ends. Maybe it can be part of "Fight Reset Warnings: Off" which currently does not address this problem. (3.2) QoL Request B: Relatedly, please add a setting to disable the rank-up popup.
Thx for the suggestions. I should be able to add a setting to disable the Rank pop-ups. Not sure if I can completely disable the other pop-ups, but I'll look into it

Feedback about recent changes: (1) I appreciated you adding the HQ training room, a weapon, and a trait to help with familiarity, which previously bottlenecked every school because it didn't scale with anything except highest level ever. Now, the only non-scaling "bottleneck" left are advisor skills, though they are for super-long runs anyway. (2) I appreciated the proper scaling in the new area. Even with my beefed up master levels, beating up Diaz only got me so far. In my current super-long run, I spent weeks maxing out some advisors and have been grinding against the razor's edge. I relied on lucky wins to get to training level 1915 and barely inched to level 1810 with secret training. Today's update hits and, using the new Genius trait, I already got to level 1810 at training level 1842, so it should now take fewer weeks to get to level 2000.
