Pinned Comment (Melena): I will be deleting all comments about the fact that I'm a loli or that are inappropriate.

Comment: How many Paths exist?

Melena: 7871 known paths exist.

Comment: How is anyone expected to complete higher tier Paths when the PP requirements grow faster than the square of the tier?

Melena: Assuming you used your PP on the minimum number of Paths to reach a high tiered Path, you could complete a tier 11 Path without going over the Skill Level Total maximum at level 90, with 1315 PP to spare. It is not impossible to do so, but it would almost definitely result in being quite weak. It seems as if we are intended to get multiple low- and middle-tier Paths, rather than the single highest tier Path possible.

The One: Would it be possible to create a Path without the AT? There is a sore lack of Paths related to what I'm doing and it's hindered me greatly compared to my friends.

Melena: As far as we know, it is not possible. There were some Paths that existed before they were incorporated into Architect Tournament rewards. The highest tier Path originally was tier 4. Given that they existed before, I will not say it is impossible, but I will say that many people have tried for thousands of years to create a Path without the Architect Tournament and all have failed.

Comment: nice flowwers

Melena: Thank you. They are flowers from a world that had access to Mana before the System came, where it was a free-floating substance in the air. They cause nearby Mana to erode through any material that is not System-enhanced, which then feeds the flower. It is very hard to keep them alive in a world where almost everything is System-enhanced.

Comment: what is a normal path tier to get to?

Melena: Most builds get one tier 10 Path, but a few stay at tier 9 paths, and one build for the indecisive gets many tier 7 Paths, then caps out the build by getting three tier 8 Paths.

Comment: can you convert SP directly to PP?

Melena: It would have been better to ask this on my video on Skills, but yes. After you hit the Skill Level Total maximum, you can convert SP directly into PP by interacting with the System in your preferred method of doing so. This will result in one sixth the PP than if you used the SP on Skills. For the default verbal interaction, just say, "Convert X SP to PP," where X is whatever number you wish.

Comment: What path do I need to do Minecraft stuff like that guy in the finals of the 26-40 bracket?

Melena: None of what was visible to the average viewer was accomplished through a Skill given by a Path. He accomplished all that through System-given Skills relating his image. From what I saw, he did not use any non-Skill applications of his image.

Comment: What is the Path that would allow me to teleport?

Melena: Between recording this video and this comment, we have set up our website over at http://www.patronknowledgedatabase.com/. You can find information on Paths, Skills, and anything else over there. Currently, only our data on Skills and tier 5 and below Paths have been transferred to the site, but we are constantly adding more at a very rapid pace.

Comment: What pathy did you make when you won

Melena: I am one of the weakest Patrons in combat. I have never won the Patron bracket of the Architect Tournament.
