Dunno if I'm stupid or if it's a bug, but I can't figure out how to get the perks that require New Game+ working (Arcane Lash II/Iron Fist II/Archer's Stamina II etc...) I'm on my third ascension but according to the perk database I may as well just have started a new game. I have all of the regular stuff you get from ascending except for this one problem.

this looks like a bug to me

Rip. It's strange too because loading that same save in revamp has ng+ perks working as intended, but it's just borked in xianxia. I didn't even do anything weird like jump between mods mid playthrough, everything's been on xianxia up until then. Ah well.

This is probably a weird request but does anyone have a complete list of all the followers that have been added and how to recruit them. I can look up on the Wiki how to recruit people from before the Mod but I'm having trouble with everyone that has been added. Thanks ahead of time for any help given.

someone on the forms said the modmaker was done witht his mod but idk how reliable they are.
Considering the modmaker's last comments in this forum implied that it was still in the works, I would say we would have to treat it as simple rumors until the maker comes forward to confirm it. The recent changes were on the smaller side lately. Hopefully the next build will have some neat new content to play around with.

Is there any sort of resource, such as a wiki or whatnot, that could be used to quickly look at the various additions, such as TFs, perks, job classes, or otherwise?

There's this but it's pretty bare bones so you'd be better off just asking any questions you have on the thread itself.

That's about right. Can't really gouge much more info from it than was already obvious.

So, do I need the Chimeric whatever perks to get a full TF?
Cause I was going for the Raiju thing, and it seemed like I couldn't go from half to whole until getting that.
And similarly with perks, what qualifies as natural weapons for the Beast Warrior class?
Got the weasel claws, and the Claw Fighter perk, but damage still feels pretty meh.
Although, that might be the equipped shield interfering, as I have a sneaking suspicion that it would.

A lot TF's are pretty RNG based and could take a couple tries to get the full thing. There's also the possibility that you have a perk that makes it harder to transform and the Chimera perk sets it back into balance. As for the Beast Warrior class I'm not quite sure. Try seeing if there are any other perks that can increase your damage and unequipping your shield would probably be good to try as well.

Didn't have any of the anti-TF perks.
I did notice that the rate at which TFs occurred felt way lower than the base game.

As it turns out, the Beast Warrior thing is because it's a stance system that has to be toggled in the perks menu, like double attacks.
Even after you get it, it defaults to off.
Damage seemed to increase about 10% when I set it right, and that wasn't in the class mode that consumes wrath, which apparently has a separate buff that further increases power when unarmed and clawed.

The game does track how many times you've been transformed in the playthrough so maybe you gain a natural resistance to TF's as the game goes on and it simply doesn't say so. Admittedly, It usually boils down to a perk having an unprecedented effect or just bad luck.

If/when there is an update, I'll be interested to see the remainder of Liadri's stuff get added, whether it be new content or the associated expansions.
Stuff like the mind flayers and the alraune variants look neat.

Does anyone know anything about constant HP bleed associated with the Mantis perks?
Got Tracheal System and its improved version, and started losing lots of HP pretty quick.

Constant HP bleedout due to race perks like mantis perk you meantioned is caused by internal chimerism score going up with natural HP regeneration not rised enough to counter or outweight it. You can also (or maybe i should say rather should reconsider) picking lvl-up perks Chimerical Body: Initial Stage and higher tiers of that perk, which act as counter to this negative HP regen caused by race related mutation perks like Tracheal System. Chimerical Body isn't something to increase possible limit of tf effects from items.

For Beast Warrior it does allow PC to get temporal transformation into more feral shape which helps to deal more dmg with unarmed attacks. Perks from Body Cultivator line (subpath of soul cultivators) or Monk/Brawler job perks also rise unarmed dmg. Claws weapon is also one of weapons that PC can use to replace need to use natural claws for Beast Warrior path.

Resistance to TF effects kicks in after 100 tf efects triggered. So even if player overlook that msg that will show after 100th tf effect it can be always checked in Stats page where it show how many times PC transformed (Body stats section) and if there is 100 or higher number there PC should have perk Transformation Resistance perk. Aside picking Alchemist history, eating fruit that Evangeline give to PC can rise limit of max possible tf effects form each item. So yeah only having Alchemist phistory/past life perk or perk from Ezekiel fruit are only ways to increase max possible tf effects triggered after use of any tf item. At least for now as I think about giving some other 1-3 options for additional +1 to that limit.

Progress is slowly done due to many irl issues i not wanna bother any of you with it but i not wanna set expectations for you all saying stuff like new build in x weeks. Well i do certain that in may be out between 25-26th July to 10-14th August but no any closer ETA i can give now.

Thanks for clearing those multiple things up.

I'd thought I'd done something wrong with the Tracheal System thing, like having that and not being enough of a bug making them suffocate or something. Also clears up what the Chimera perks do.

Also noticed the Beast Warrior stuff after the fact. At first just saw Crinos Shape. Didn't initially realize that the actual style was a toggle, like Double Attack. Noticed that the various perks for it stacked really well with the Raiju perks, tearing through basically everything within reach, and making the lightning spell ridiculously strong to fight fliers.

Something to keep in mind with the Mindbreaker form, if you intend to add it at some point. Without the octopus legs, but still with the hair, how would that interact with other grapples? For example, if constricting with a snake tail, pounced with manticore paws, or I guess the crab grab if you opt to include the Cancer item, would the mind attack be available in the options? Like, a snake character having the options to squeeze, tease, or mind break.
