    A better method to achieve that goal (to make it so you can't just "handily meet" your potential) would be to remove all the fixed number caps and instead make training methods simply get harder and...

    But would the "preparation" have required grinding? Like with the willpower -- would 10 (without the corruption) have been enough? If not, what about those potential maximums?

    Wasn't the original idea that led to the potential system being adjusted to have it so that herbs (and corpses?) could train the stats all the way up to the potential, i.e. no more "25" limit, and...

    How high a level do you think the PC should have to be to gain membership? (As some of the feats suggested here -- robbing shops, robbing the water dragon -- require a fairly high level to pull off.)

    On UD: 2:

    You stumble upon a statue. It is covered with permafrost and is too cold to
    touch. An inscription at the bottom reads: "I long for eternal frost and
    black winters."

    Interesting, but how do you prevent the "considering how high the stat is" from making it too hard to raise the stat higher even with an "excelling" potential and the stat still a good ways below it?

    Well, I'm still level 12, so I have to grind out a little more (maybe explore the remaining COC levels above the DH/AF split zone?) to get to 13 and thus have the pyramid ready?
