| + | ===== Breakthrough ===== | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | To breakthrough (to [[tao:arts:originintegration:realms:qigathering|Qi Gathering]]), the Essence of Heaven and Earth | ||
| + | needs to be collected and stored in a more raw form inside the body. As such there is a plethora of technique that | ||
| + | assist in this endeavor. The steps are as follows: | ||
| + | |||
| + | - The cultivator must truely percieve the Essence of Heaven and Earth. (Arcane + Perception check with DC 14) | ||
| + | - The technique being used must be understood and executed correctly. (Comprehension check with DC 3pts) | ||
| + | - The raw Essence must be withstood and controlled during the process. (Constitution check with DC 30) | ||
| + | * Up to 2 fails are allowed. On a fail, [2d10+4] damage is taken and a Arcane check (DC 10) is made. If this successes then the process continues; on a fail the Essence dissipates and the process ends. | ||
| + | - The technique's energy loop that stores the energy must be stabilised. (Arcane check with DC 14) | ||
| + | |||
| + | There are many benifits to breaking through. The most immediate of which are: | ||
| + | |||
| + | * Essence has been collected and converted to Qi. Increases max Qi by [floor(physical stat average/15)]. | ||
| + | * The mind is cleared and Essence can be more easily sensed. Increases intelligence, wisdom and charisma scores by [floor(physical stat average/10)]. | ||
