hard choice hhmmmm

Gonna be impossible to get a q2 gold bar


as gold bars have no quality...

[xTrainx]

even charisma and dex.

Pardon me if I'm stupid, but what would be the general use for dexterity?

my bad, i was under the impression farming affected trees and crops at the moment of planting it

[GamingRAM]

I am genuinely confused by this.

Can someone explain to me how this is better than the old system?

When it comes to gold and silvers, the ancestors will in fact be happy with any quality.

Can someone explain to me how this is better than the old system?

There's a way to inherit your stats other than burial?

[GamingRAM]

So....
The base % retained is reduced from 30% to 15%, but you can make sacrifices to gain back points?

Yes, basically.

EDIT: Whoops, even I misunderstood it. Confusing update but it'll be much better this way I think.

The base % retained is reduced from 30% to 15%

Read the OP. It's reduced because it is now calculated as if you inherited the equivalent number of LP/FEPs put into a stat, rather than straight stat numbers. 15% equivalent LP is more than 30% straight stats:

• The new regime is more lenient than the old regime. Conversion between the two isn't entirely exact, but, for comparison: under the previous system, the baseline inheritance was -- in terms of FEPs and LPs spent -- about 6.5%, with the inheritance from a full burial clocking in at around 40% of total FEPs and LPs spent. Old system thus (sans State Funeral) ranged from 6.5 to 40% inheritance, with the new system instead ranging from 15 to 45%.

I did read it, a bit confusing on my end as a player.

But that helps explain it a bit better.
Could I in theory, regain all my stats back if I make enough sacrifices?
