A successor to first Strive For Power game, currently at alpha stage · By
Hey, strive. Just wondering, with the inclusion of this new spirit system, is there a way for it to increase or regain over time? Because I, as most of us, are new to this system, I'd like to know if there's any way of increasing it, because most of the slaves reach half spirit before getting the specialisation unlocked.
Kind Regards.
About half an hour after writing this, I discovered the best way of maximising the spirit system. If when training a slave, you aim for the dating perk (The flower) you're able to use dates to increase loyalty by 20+ a time, also after a few successful dates and intimate talks, you'll unlock them naturally wanting sex, so you only need to train 3-5 times, and then date farm until you've unlocked all of the perks. Make sure to aim for what specialisation you're wanting with the slave in question, worker, sexual or fighter, when using the train feature. Then date until all is unlocked to complete the training.
Best of luck, Masters. :)
Cheers for this, was struggling to see how you'd be able to unlock everything for a Slave without having their spirit break.
I'm hoping the Spirit/Training system will get another tweak in the near future. The fact that no action can raise spirit seems odd, I would have though some of the Positive actions (Day off and Gift especially) should have a chance of raising their spirit somewhat, unless their disposition is Resist to Positive. Also would have thought that any action with a Kink disposition would have a chance of raising their spirit too.
Personally I didn’t have any issue keeping their spirit above 80% if not near their maximum, you just need to choose carefully.
However I agree that it is strange that when choosing a positive training option categorized as kink that there is still a chance of loosing spirit.
That said, I would also want to point out that the Maid Dress give a +1 for spirit.
Yeah I kept a few items to swap onto slaves when it was training time: Maid Dress for +1 Spirit and +1 Loyalty, Lacy Underwear for another +1 Spirit and Leather Collar for +2 Loyalty. Definitely helped get the points for Break and Date.
Since the advice regarding using Dates for most of the Loyalty gain, past the first 2 unlocks at least, I've had few issues keeping their Spirit up. I really only have problems if the training type(s) needed for the specialty I'd like have started off at Resist. I was pretty happy when I found out that you can switch trainers though, it's allowed me to swap in a caster trainer to use Mind Read a time or two to figure out some of their Dispositions before hitting proper training.
One question I still have though is the Spirit Status that displays once their training is complete. So far I've seen it say "Preserved" and "Retained" I'm assuming one is for training completed at high Spirit and the other is for closer to the 50% point, there's no tool tip or info to suggest there's any functional difference between the two. I've yet to complete screw up the training yet so I can only guess there's at least a third type, "Broken" would be my guess, but it'd be nice to get some confirmation on whether there is a difference between the first two.
@Kaito707, yeah, you need to complete her questline for it to become available to get the specilization and group one. Initially I was perplexed and hypothesized that was the reasoning behind it, so I speedran it and after making her choice to stay after the ramon kidnapping I could finish her loyalty slave training.
