Question from @Jouissance (original post):

@qOS can you tell me what you think of this custom for sales management? I’d like a review of the custom, and to know if it would be a better custom with or without the addition of the NWE Core. True Sell Stage 1 Emperor: Crown & Capital Essence: Where the current runs Essence: Total War **Navigating Authority With Integrity Job Seeker Nomad Joy Of Wealth Singularity’s Paradox: Wealth Synergy: One Above All The Keystone The Lazy Genius The Solar Treasury Unwitnessed Light Win-Win Negotiation **Execution Override (default to immediate action instead of analysis) **Data Point **Resource Optimization **Earthshaker: Authority

Summary

@Jouissance — yes, add the New Wealth Experience Core. It makes this a stronger custom, and at nineteen items there is exactly one slot left for it.

The custom for sales management

The two cores suit the job you have now. True Sell Stage 1 helps keep you sharp as a seller: level when someone pushes back, direct about the next step, quick to recover from a no, and interested in the craft for its own sake. Emperor: Crown and Capital adds what a manager needs on top of that. It may help you develop thinking in systems instead of single deals, reading where influence sits in a company, delegating with trust, and building processes that keep running when you are not in the room.

Most of the modules point the same way:

• Navigating Authority With Integrity fits your position closely. You answer to a sales manager and lead six setters, and it helps you challenge upward constructively and hold authority responsibly downward.
• Synergy: One Above All and Earthshaker: Authority add leadership presence. The Keystone works on becoming the person decisions route through because of real competence and reliability, which is how a manager gets trusted with more teams.
• Execution Override helps turn plans into first steps before doubt sets in. Data Point helps you read results and adjust from evidence. Resource Optimization and The Lazy Genius both push toward getting more out of the same hours and the same people.
• Win-Win Negotiation suits a role where you negotiate with your own team and your manager as often as with buyers.
• Unwitnessed Light suits a manager more than its name suggests. Much of a manager’s best work goes unseen, and this module may help keep your effort at full strength whether or not anyone is watching.
• ESSENCE: Total War adds composure and fast, clean decisions under pressure.
• ESSENCE: Where the Current Runs, Joy of Wealth, Singularity’s Paradox: Wealth and The Solar Treasury form the wealth layer. They support a calm body around money, enjoyment of what you already have, settling beliefs about money that pull against each other, and creating value that income follows.
• Job Seeker supports promotions as well as job hunts, which fits the chance of being brought onto more teams.

Nomad is the one module that does not serve sales management. It supports opportunities for people who travel or want a digital nomad life. Unless that is part of your plan, swap it for Mastering Delegation, an Ecstasy of Gold module about handing work to the right people and building a team whose output grows beyond your own effort. For a setter manager it is one of the most direct fits in the store.

With or without the NWE Core

With it. True Sell and Crown and Capital each carry the New Wealth Experience, as every wealth title does, and ESSENCE: Where the Current Runs carries it in condensed form. The New Wealth Experience Core is the full version, with more scripting than the versions inside the major titles. It also means every wealth core and module in the custom is processed through the NWE, and this build has a large wealth layer for it to organise. The NWE supports positive financial situations turning up day to day and helps money challenges resolve through everyday experience, which suits a season where your income is rising and the new level needs to feel normal.

Adding it brings the custom to twenty items, the full cap. Mastering Delegation then replaces Nomad, so it is a swap and the count stays at twenty.

Stacking with Khan Black Stage 1

Yes, you can stack them. Khan Black is an Artisan title, intended for experienced listeners. Stage I does deep clearing work on sexual shame, performance anxiety and old hurts, and that can run heavy for a few weeks. Its suggested companion is PEACE, a settling title, while this custom is a dense two-core build aimed at action, so together they ask a lot of you at once. Start Khan Black from the shortest exposure and let it settle before you judge the pairing.

The direction fits. The Crucible’s effects on work may include saying the number without apology and carrying weight in a hard meeting, and its classic pairing is Stage III with Crown and Capital or True Sell. Running Stage I now is the first step toward that.

Build it with the NWE Core and Mastering Delegation in place of Nomad, then bring in Khan Black Stage I once the custom feels settled. Listening guidance is in the official instructions: https://instructions.subliminalclub.com

Question from @driller (original post):

@qos Will a custom with the names of the embedded Wanted Black and Stark Black cores cause less reconciliation than running the store titles independently?

Summary

@driller — no, don’t count on it. Name embedding makes the material land better, but it does not reduce how much material you are taking on, and that is where reconciliation comes from.

What name embedding does

With your name embedded, your subconscious recognises the material as directed at you. That tends to bring faster integration, deeper acceptance and processing of the material, and more profound results tailored to your circumstances. Name embedding works on how well the material lands, and reconciliation is a separate matter.

Where reconciliation comes from

Reconciliation is the frustration that comes when your inner state has changed and your outer circumstances have not caught up yet. How much you feel depends on how much is changing at once and how quickly your life follows. Wanted Black and A Stark Black Reality are both Artisan line titles, intended for advanced listeners, and each core carries its whole title. In one custom both run every time you press play, so you are still taking on the material of two Artisan titles at once.

There is one practical difference. In a custom the two are joined, so if one of them runs heavy for a while, you cannot set it aside and keep the other, as you can with two separate titles.

Next step

If a smoother run is the priority, build the custom at Standard strength. Standard is the most stable strength and gives the least reconciliation. Listening guidance is in the official instructions: https://instructions.subliminalclub.com

Question from @369 (original post):

Does this custom support what I’m building? @qOS can I get your assessment of this custom please? I ran Emperor: Crown & Capital and R.I.C.H. as cores with 14 modules for more than 4 months, and I’m adjusting it to the version below. I’ve also run The Commander for 6-7 months and really liked it, so I added its core because I tend to be too soft and things change for me when I run it. I’m building a company that changes the rules of the current market, and I have the edge to do it. I’m also building a complete integrated system around it, and I’ve finished the MVP and proved it works. The market moves fast, so I added Furious Ascent for speed. Cores: Emperor: House of Medici, Nouveau Rich, The Commander Modules: ESSENCE: Where the Current Runs, ESSENCE: Unstoppable Execution, ESSENCE: Total War, Synergy: Master of the World, Synergy: Winner Overdrive, The Lazy Genius, AI Whisperer, DEUS, Furious Ascent Does this custom support what I’m after? Thanks

Summary

@369 — yes, this build supports what you are building. There is one change to make: use the Emperor: Crown and Capital Core instead of the Emperor: House of Medici Core.

House of Medici or Crown and Capital

Emperor: Crown and Capital is the upgrade of Emperor: House of Medici, and it is the version you have been running for the last four months. The Crown and Capital Core replaces the House of Medici Core, and if you licensed the House of Medici Core in the past you do not need to buy it again.

The two are different scripts. House of Medici leaned on social relationships, trading intuition and family dynasty. Crown and Capital adds strategic thinking, privacy and information control, financial structures built to last, and integration support that makes the change smoother. A founder protecting a new system and building around it is better served by Crown and Capital, so put that core in the build.

How the three cores work together

Nouveau R.I.C.H. is the closest match in the catalogue to what you describe. It is built around market disruption. It helps you spot markets that are ready for change, generate ideas and pick out the ones with the most disruptive potential, test and refine through iteration, and understand your customer on an intuitive level. It also helps you recognise the mentors, funders and team members who share your vision, and tell genuine allies from opportunists. Its pro-tips are built around the MVP model of launching a basic version and refining it from real feedback, which is exactly the stage you have reached.

Crown and Capital adds structure around what Nouveau R.I.C.H. builds. The Chessboard Empire supports long-range planning, Treasury Shield and Tax Mastery support financial structure, and its network features open the door to high-value relationships. Crown and Capital recommends this pairing directly. Nouveau R.I.C.H. drives income growth, and Crown and Capital builds the protection around it.

The Commander adds the presence and drive you reach for when you feel too soft. It works on a commanding voice and posture, determination without hesitation, and the leadership that makes it easier for clients, investors and colleagues to get behind your goals. The Commander recommends care when it is stacked with a title already loaded with status, such as Emperor. Crown and Capital’s presence is the quieter, governing kind, but with The Commander and DEUS in the same build, status is the one area that could run heavy. You have run both titles, so watch how it sits with you and the people around you in the first weeks.

The modules

ESSENCE: Where the Current Runs keeps the R.I.C.H. layer you have been running, in condensed form. It sits beside Nouveau R.I.C.H. with little overlap. R.I.C.H. works on manifestation channels and wealth opportunities. Nouveau R.I.C.H. works on the experiences that shape your wealth mindset and on market disruption. Both carry the New Wealth Experience.

ESSENCE: Unstoppable Execution and ESSENCE: Total War are where your speed actually comes from. Unstoppable Execution closes the gap between an idea and starting on it. Total War speeds up decisions under pressure without losing precision.

Furious Ascent is a risk module more than a speed module. It helps you embrace risk, find the opportunities with the best risk-to-reward ratio, and keep widening your comfort zone. That suits someone changing the rules of a market, so it earns its place, just for a different reason than the one you gave.

Synergy: Master of the World adds planning, foresight and rehearsing situations before they happen. Strategy is the most heavily covered area in the build, since Master of the World, Total War and Crown and Capital’s Chessboard Empire all work on it. The overlap adds weight to strategy without pulling in different directions, and it suits a founder in a fast market.

The Lazy Genius and AI Whisperer fit the integrated system you are building. The Lazy Genius pushes you toward leverage, automation and the few actions that produce most of the result. AI Whisperer helps you use AI well inside your business and systems. Synergy: Winner Overdrive is the broadest module here, spreading drive and success across every area of life. DEUS pushes everything in the build to work harder.

Next step

Swap the House of Medici Core for the Crown and Capital Core and keep everything else. Three cores and nine modules sit well inside the 20-module cap, and every piece points the same way. If you ever need a free slot, Winner Overdrive is the first to go, because it is the least specific to your aim.

Question from @Plutus (original post):

@qOS how’s Synergy: Tale of the Dragon and Sacred Words in a custom with Stark Black if I remove EoG: True Sell ST1 for having something for a sales corporate career and doing sales for the business. In terms of getting more deals closing for both and for social experiences when meeting people, networking, etc, interviews for jobs, sales calls, etc.

Summary

@Plutus — yes, Synergy: Tale of the Dragon and Sacred Words both fit well in a custom with A Stark Black Reality, and they cover meeting people, networking and written persuasion. Removing True Sell Stage 1 costs you most of the closing craft, so for getting more deals closed it is better to keep it.

What the two modules add

Tale of the Dragon combines four modules. Dragon Tongue helps sharpen your wit and speech so you can handle any conversation and reframe it in your favour. Song of Joy brings humour and comedic timing into your interactions. Story Teller helps you tell stories people remember. The fourth is the True Sell module, a single persuasion module for selling products, ideas and yourself. Together they suit networking events, first meetings, interviews and the conversational side of a sales call.

Sacred Words covers the written side. It helps you write emails, proposals, documents and messages that make your case clearly and persuasively. In a corporate role full of follow-ups and proposals, nothing else in this build does that.

A Stark Black Reality supports presence that makes you the centre of attention in a room, popularity built on the value you offer, resilience and cognitive enhancement. It carries a focused version of the New Wealth Experience. That supports you in every setting you named.

What you lose without True Sell Stage 1

The True Sell module inside Tale of the Dragon is not Stage 1. Stage 1 is the broadest of the four True Sell stages, a complete title on the sales craft, and most of what turns a good conversation into a signed deal sits there:

• The Second Answer and The First Two Minutes develop discovery. The buyer may tell you what is really going on sooner, and you learn to listen one level deeper before you recommend anything.
• The Direct Ask builds the habit of asking for a decision plainly, so good calls may end with a commitment.
• Unshakeable helps keep you level when a buyer pushes back. Power Before the Pitch helps you pursue a deal fully without needing it.
• Paid Without Flinching helps you state the price and let it stand.
• Deals That Hold helps bring doubts to the surface before the decision is final, so fewer signed deals may unravel.
• The Ninety-Second Reset helps keep one lost call from spoiling the next ones.

Tale of the Dragon and A Stark Black Reality work on speech, charm and presence. They do not carry discovery, the direct ask or holding a price in this depth.

Recommendation

For a sales career measured by closed deals, keep True Sell Stage 1 and add Tale of the Dragon and Sacred Words beside it if you have the slots. For interviews, Job Seeker is built for job interviews and promotions and is worth a slot of its own. Drop True Sell Stage 1 only if you are happy for the custom to lean toward social ease and persuasion, with your closing resting on the skills you have already built.

Question from @Grey (original post):

@qOS can you shed some detailed light on the difference between Standard and ZPQ builds? What are their use cases? It was said somewhere that ZPQ holds 4x more information per second than Standard - what is it’s implication for the user? If someone was to run ZPQ would they get the same result in 1/4th of the time compared to someone running the standard version? Or if someone was running a wealth title in ZPQ for a year, would they become 4x richer than if they had used standard for a year?

Summary

@Grey — no on both counts. A Zero Point Quantum build does not bring the same result in a quarter of the time, and a wealth title at ZPQ does not make anyone four times richer than the same title at Standard.

Standard and ZPQ

Standard is the Zero Point strength used in our major titles. It is the most stable strength, it gives a consistent experience, and it brings the least reconciliation.

ZPQ is more powerful than Standard and is meant for advanced users only. Its use case is a title or custom you have already run successfully at Standard and now want more power from. Anything new starts at Standard. This is the same advice given to @Endless in post #290 (qOS Question and Answer Thread - #290 by qOS), and it applies to name-embedded builds too.

What the extra power means for you

More power does not mean faster results. Your subconscious still takes in new material at its own pace, however much a build carries. When a strength is more than you can process, results may slow down and reconciliation tends to be heavier. Some people move quickly on a powerful build and others stall, so the strength works as an option for experienced listeners rather than a speed setting.

The wealth example

No build strength multiplies an outcome. A wealth title supports how you think about money, the openings you notice and the habits you build around them. What that turns into over a year depends on the title and on what you do with it: the offers you make, the calls you return, the work you follow through on. Two people on the same title at the same strength can end the year in very different places for that reason.

Next step

Run the title or custom at Standard first. Once it has worked well for you and you want more from it, rebuild that same build at ZPQ; rebuilds are offered at a discount. Listening guidance is in the official instructions: https://instructions.subliminalclub.com

Question from @Green-power-ranger (original post):

@qOS by what mechanism does fearsome module work? Please explain. Also explain the working mechanism of ebon maneuver and psyche Restoration.

Summary

@Green-power-ranger — one thing first: none of these modules guarantees safety from danger, so use caution and your own judgement in any situation that calls for it. Each of the three works through your own perception, intuition, choices and presence. Here is what each does and how it shows up.

Fearsome

Fearsome changes your relationship with fear. It treats fear as an ally: the instinct that warns you of danger, that heightens your best moments, and that protects you. The module helps you turn that instinct into a guardian you can rely on. As it settles, it shows in how you carry yourself. People who would try to harm, manipulate or take advantage of you tend to read you as someone not worth crossing, and they back off. People who would not respect you any other way tend to give you a measure of wary respect. What they are responding to is you: your steadiness and your bearing when someone pushes you. It is a strong tool, so use it with judgement.

Ebon Maneuver

Ebon Maneuver is for conflict you cannot walk away from. That covers thieves, scammers, people who want to profit from your success, toxic or abusive friends and family, and also slander, libel, bullying, blackmail and lies. It works through your awareness. It helps you notice who is working against you, understand their plans and reasons, and recognise moves already made against you. It then gives you an intuitive sense of the steps that stop them. Your own actions, taken with that clarity, are what end the attacks and keep them from returning. A spiritual attack is handled the same way: it helps you understand what the attack is, who is behind it, how to stop it, and how to avoid a repeat from the same people. Gentler modules such as Limiting People Remover, The Boundary and Negative Energy Transmutation cover everyday toxicity. Ebon Maneuver is for when your hand is forced.

Psyche Restoration

Psyche Restoration is a healing module for when damage to the psyche has already happened. It aims to help heal cracks that can show up as paranoia, grandiosity, a saviour complex, heavily manipulative behaviour, narcissism, anxiety or depression. Many of these are hard to see in yourself. It pairs well with Psyche Augmentation, used alongside it or before it. Psyche Restoration works on repairing what is already damaged. Psyche Augmentation strengthens the psyche so it can discard harmful influences and tell good input from bad. If you notice any of these patterns in yourself, talk to a qualified health professional as well. The module is a support beside that, not a replacement for it.

If your aim is protection from people working against you, Ebon Maneuver is the direct choice, and Fearsome adds the presence that makes people think twice. Psyche Restoration is for your own inner repair, and it is best paired with Psyche Augmentation.

Question from @Malkuth (original post):

@qos Khan Black has just been rebuilt, and I’d like a check on a stack plan. First Background: My past Alchemist exposure Alchemist (main title, staged): Jul 2020 – Apr 2021 Alchemist ST4 core in customs: May – Sep 2021 (QV2 / Terminus V2), then Sep 2022 – Apr 2023 (ZP Terminus², with Sage Immortal and Ascension Chamber cores) Alchemist ZPv2: ST1 from Sep 2025, ST2 from Nov 2025, ST3 Jan – Mar 2026 Alchemist ST4 core + Khan Black ST4 core (Customized Major Title, ZPQ): Mar – Jul 2026 My Khan Black exposure Khan Black: The Crucible (ZP): ST1–ST2 Jun – Nov 2023, ST3 Nov 2023 – Feb 2024 Khan Black ST2 core in a custom: Aug – Nov 2023; ST4 core in a QTKS custom: Feb 2024 – Jan 2025 Khan Black ZPv2: ST1 from Sep 2025, ST2 from Nov 2025, ST3 Jan – Mar 2026 ST4 core in the Customized Major Title above (with Alchemist 4): Mar – Jul 2026 The Sep 2025 – Jul 2026 runs were done specifically as AEON’s recommended foundation. Current stack My INTERFACE custom (EoG ST2 + R.I.C.H. cores, ZPU), basically non-negotiable Alchemist Royal: AEON ST1, steady since late July 2026, microloops, going slowly by choice. I plan to stay on ST1 as long as. The possible plan Replace standalone AEON ST1 with a Customized Major Title: AEON ST1 Core + Khan Black Stage 1 Core (the rebuilt Crucible, ZPU). The stack stays at two titles. The aim is to bring in the rewritten Crucible (the Hidden Spring, the still reserve) and the ZPU build alongside my ongoing AEON work, starting from Stage 1 as the new copy advises. Questions Is AEON ST1 + Khan Black ST1 a sound pairing in one Customized Major Title (given the above background)? Any general guidance regarding working through the stages of these two together? Would these questions be more appropriately posed to Customer Support? I don’t mind sending them there instead.

Summary

@Malkuth — yes, AEON Stage 1 Core with Khan Black Stage 1 Core is a sound pairing for one Customized Major Title, and your history puts you well past AEON’s foundation. AEON asks for all four stages of Khan Black at minimum, and ideally Khan Black twice and Alchemist once. You have done both several times over.

Why the pairing works

Khan Black helps you build the energy. AEON refines it, and AEON Stage 2 needs that surplus to be there before the refining can start. The rebuilt Crucible adds something your earlier runs did not have in this form. Stage I ends with The Hidden Spring, which introduces you by direct feel to the still essence beneath sexual energy, and everything later in the title assumes that introduction. Even a thoroughly healed listener is meant to start there, so Stage I is the right core to bring in.

The build also follows the Crucible’s rules for customs: one Crucible core per build, a first Crucible custom on the Stage 1 Core, and a single direction. Inner energetic development is one direction, so AEON beside Khan Black does not split the build.

Khan Black is meant to be used on its own or within a recognised cultivation tradition, and not mixed with energetic methods from outside recommended practice. AEON is not an outside method. It is the title built on Khan Black as its foundation, and Khan Black’s own suggested pairings include the Alchemist line. AEON also does best alongside a dedicated spiritual practice, so if you keep one, it serves both titles.

What to expect

Both Stage 1s are clearing stages. Khan Black Stage I helps clear sexual shame, performance anxiety, numbness and old hurts, and that clearing can run heavy for a few weeks. AEON Stage 1 helps cleanse the subtler structures and does healing and clearing of its own ahead of its anti-aging work. The build may process deeply before it produces much you can point to. That suits its purpose, and your INTERFACE custom keeps the outward work going beside it. If Stage I does run heavy, PEACE is the settling title Khan Black suggests next to it.

Build it at Standard. It is a new custom on a rewritten title, and Khan Black recommends Standard power until you know how it sits with you.

Working through the stages together

• Khan Black runs in order, I through IV, and Stages I and II need their full time before Stage III is paired with anything.
• The two titles do not have to move in step. You plan to stay on AEON Stage 1 for a long time, so let Khan Black set the pace.
• A sensible point to move AEON to Stage 2 is once Khan Black reaches Stage III. Stage III is where the still reserve is gathered, and AEON Stage 2 is where that surplus starts being refined. Khan Black’s suggested pairing with the Alchemist line is also at Stage III, where the reserve and the inner work support each other.
• Khan Black Stage IV runs on its own and needs no build designed around it, so later it can sit under AEON’s final stages.
• Every AEON stage is needed. Stage 4 continues the refinement of the earlier stages rather than standing alone, so plan to carry AEON from Stage 1 through Stage 4.
• Moving either title to its next stage means a new build with the next core, so plan each change as a fresh Customized Major Title.

Support or the forum

It depends on what you need from the answer. For a quicker answer to build from, such as this pairing and stage plan, qOS here on the forum is the right place. If an answer here turns out to need refinement and a longer back and forth, take it to support at https://answers.subliminalclub.com, where the team can work through it with you.

Next step: order the Customized Major Title with AEON Stage 1 Core and Khan Black Stage 1 Core at Standard, and come back here when you are ready to plan the move to Khan Black Stage II. Listening guidance is in the official instructions: https://instructions.subliminalclub.com

Question from @Endless (original post):

@qOS For Khan Black: The Crucible Reforged, I want to know which modules fit Stage 2, other than the ones already mentioned (Legacy of the Spartan or Spartan: Apex Warrior). I want to put together a custom name embedded major build

Summary

@Endless — with the number of modules in the store, this is a broad question, because a lot will sit well beside Stage II. So here is a focused set rather than a complete list. It centres on two things: modules that put you more fully in your body, and modules that work on desire itself. Stage II builds the vessel with wider and suppler channels, a filter against other people’s heaviness, a body strong enough to carry the work, grounding, composure at full charge and resilience. Each module below supports that work without spending the energy Stage II is building. Here they are, ranked.

Ranked

1. ESSENCE: The Reforged Ruler is Emperor Reforged in one module. It helps the breath drop lower and the body come out of a brace it did not know it was holding, so your presence stays settled in your body. It also helps sensuality become a natural part of you rather than something you perform or apologise for. That is close to how Stage II wants desire held. It carries some wealth and dating material too, which is why it suits a broad build.
2. ESSENCE: The Uncarved Block is PEACE in one module, and it contains no healing. It supports grounding, a longer exhale, effort without strain, and a steadiness that bends and springs back. That lines up with The Way Down and Tempered, Not Brittle, and your drive and edge stay intact.
3. Alpha Body Language helps your body language become relaxed and powerful, so your movements carry calm strength whether you are still or moving. It is the posture side of a grounded presence.
4. Sexiness Unbound helps you feel in tune with your own sexiness and lifts the blocks that stop you expressing it. It works on how you feel about your own desire and attractiveness, not on anyone else, so it sits well beside Stage II’s work on pleasure and full charge.
5. SPS: Endocrine System supports healthy hormone function across the body, which may help you feel stronger, clearer and more powerful. It backs up A Body Built to Hold It from the physical side. It is physical shifting, so it takes time and is no substitute for medical advice.
6. Irresistible Relaxation helps muscles release, breathing slow and the mind settle, so you move without rushing or strain. That supports composure when the charge runs high.
7. Everpresent builds awareness of your body, your actions and your movements in the present moment. It helps you inhabit the body while Stage II’s perception of your own states wakes up.
8. Elegance helps your movement become fluid, relaxed and graceful. It brings the suppleness Stage II builds inside out into the way you move.
9. Apollon works on overall harmony of the body and face, and on confidence in your body. Like all physical shifting it takes time and needs action from you, such as training and taking care of yourself.

Overlaps

The Uncarved Block and Irresistible Relaxation both bring ease to the body, so if you need a slot, keep one. Alpha Body Language and Elegance both work on movement, one toward relaxed power and one toward grace, and they combine well. Synergy: Apollon Unbound contains Apollon, Sexiness Unbound and Physicality Shifter: Sexiness, so it can replace two slots if you want more physical change in one module.

Putting the build together

Use the Khan Black Stage 2 Core as the only Crucible core and choose eight to twelve modules that all point the same way. The list above already points one way, toward embodiment and desire. Go easy on healing modules, since Stage I already did the clearing. The Stage 2 Core belongs after Stage I has done its work, so if this is your first Crucible custom, build the Stage 1 Core first. Standard strength is the right place to start for a new custom.

@qOS what about primal nights or sex and seduction? what are the differences between them and primal seduction. i believe sex and seduction is pretty old tech as well. You mentioned that primal seduction works best when you already have a dating life, what if you have to build one from scratch? Would a custom subliminal with primal core and primal seduction core be a good idea that way i get to continue the momentum of primal too.

Question from @khudi666 (original post):

@qOS what about primal nights or sex and seduction? what are the differences between them and primal seduction. i believe sex and seduction is pretty old tech as well. You mentioned that primal seduction works best when you already have a dating life, what if you have to build one from scratch? Would a custom subliminal with primal core and primal seduction core be a good idea that way i get to continue the momentum of primal too.

Summary

@khudi666 — yes, a custom with the PRIMAL Core and the Primal Seduction Core is a good idea for you. The two overlap on seduction, and the PRIMAL Core keeps the fun, adventure and risk-taking you would otherwise give up in the swap. The other two titles first, then the custom.

Primal Nights
Primal Nights is not a seduction title. It is built for intimacy with a consensual partner once you are already together. It may help you develop a strong aura of lust in your voice, gaze and body language, and it carries pillow-talk scripting for those private moments. Anyone can run it, and it is meant for private settings, never work. It runs on Zero Point v2. In the Primal line it comes last: PRIMAL for confidence, Primal Seduction for the romancing skills, then Primal Nights.

Sex & Seduction X
The old title you have in mind is the original Sex & Seduction. Sex & Seduction X replaced it as a free upgrade for owners, and it runs on Zero Point v2 MAX. Its centre is the New Romance Experience, which helps manifest favourable situations at whatever skill level you are at now, so you build your own style of seduction from positive encounters. It also carries conversation mastery, sexual technique, and work on the hidden beliefs that hold romance back, and it suits any gender.

Primal Seduction works by a different method from Sex & Seduction X. It is built around reality bubbles, auras of sexiness and of status, and sexual performance, and its core combines the best of PRIMAL and Sex & Seduction in a new way. PRIMAL runs on Zero Point, and Primal Seduction has been a ZPU hybrid since 2 October.

Building a dating life from scratch
An active dating life here means going out regularly to places where you can meet people. You do not need a roster first. Primal Seduction carries scripting to manifest situations and is designed to work whatever your current skill level, but you still need to be where people are. Bars, clubs, concerts and restaurants where singles go make it easiest. Starting from zero, the missing piece is the habit of going out and approaching, and PRIMAL’s work on approach anxiety, social anxiety and resilience to rejection supports that.

The PRIMAL Core with the Primal Seduction Core
Approach anxiety, wit, calibration, resilience to rejection, and physical and verbal escalation are in both cores, so the custom puts most of its weight on seduction. PRIMAL adds what Primal Seduction lacks: fun scripting, adventure and calculated risk-taking, and living by your own standards. Primal Seduction adds reality bubbles, its NSE scenarios, sexual performance and its two auras. You also carry PRIMAL’s momentum straight into the new build.

Since you are starting from scratch, add the New Romance Experience Core as a third core. It helps manifest positive romantic situations every day, which may supply the encounters you do not have yet, and every romance core in the custom is processed through its framework. It is the same experience that lets Sex & Seduction X start from your current level, with extra scripting in the core version.

Build it at Standard strength, since it is a new custom and Primal Seduction is one of the longest scripts in the catalogue. Bring it in at the start of your next cycle in PRIMAL’s place, beside WANTED and Genesis: Ascension Stage 1.

Question from @Judoka (original post):

Of course i meant adding time as the sweet spot goes up if you can handle more as you listen more @qOS What is the incentive of increasing listening time

Summary

@Judoka — yes, raising your exposure as your sweet spot rises is fine. The incentive is more of the same results, with the same stability you had at the shorter exposure. A longer listen does not bring deeper results or more complex subject matter than the shorter one did.

Your sweet spot is the exposure that gives good results with little reconciliation. It moves up only when you are processing comfortably at your current exposure. A higher sweet spot means you can take in more at once without losing that steadiness, so each listening day gives you a little more.

Going past it works against you. Listening beyond what you are processing comfortably tends to slow results and bring heavier reconciliation, and the extra time does not make up for that.

Move up when your current exposure feels comfortable, and stay where you are when it does not. Listening guidance is in the official instructions: https://instructions.subliminalclub.com

@qOS

Which title in the catalog is the best in allowing you to be and express your true and authentic self and be comfortable in your own skin? Summertime? Heartsong: Attuned? The current Renaissance Man? Or maybe some other title?

Maybe there are different titles that allow you to be comfortable being you more, and others that allow you to express yourself more?

Question from @Golgo13 (original post):

@qOS Which title in the catalog is the best in allowing you to be and express your true and authentic self and be comfortable in your own skin? Summertime? Heartsong: Attuned? The current Renaissance Man? Or maybe some other title? Maybe there are different titles that allow you to be comfortable being you more, and others that allow you to express yourself more?

Summary

@Golgo13 — Heartsong: Attuned is the one to start with. You are right that the titles split: some help you feel at home being you, others help you put yourself out into the world. Attuned does both, and it starts with feeling at home in yourself.

Being comfortable as you

Attuned (Heartsong Stage 1) works on a sense of worth that was yours before anyone responded to you, so a compliment or a cold shoulder may stop deciding how you feel about yourself. At Home in My Body helps you feel the warmth of your own skin with no audience needed. Secure Ground and The Past Set Down help old reflexes loosen, so you may brace less. Attuned is for every heart, single or partnered, and although Heartsong is a love title, these capacities carry into every part of life. Attuned does not give you a new self to perform. It helps clear away what has been covering the one you already are.

Summertime works through the body. It quiets the low hum of social vigilance, the constant check on how you are coming across, so your relaxed, authentic self may become your everyday baseline instead of something that only shows up on holiday. Its aim is warmth, presence and play with the people around you.

Expressing yourself

Renaissance Man is the expression title. It is designed to break down the blocks on self-expression, whether you built them yourself or they were put on you, and to turn strong feeling into creativity of any kind. It is a free-spirited Zero Point title and intense by design, so it suits someone ready to feel everything and put it into their work.

Attuned covers expression in a quieter way. The Same Heart Everywhere helps you be one person in every room. Knowing What I Want helps you say what you want plainly, and Rejection Without Verdict helps you hear a no without it shaking you.

The pick, and a custom built around it

Attuned is the best fit because comfort in your own skin comes first, and expression tends to grow out of it. If you want to push both sides further, here is a custom built around Heartsong Core Stage 1:

• Heartsong Core Stage 1 carries the whole of Attuned in a core slot.
• ESSENCE: Endless Summer is Summertime in one module. It helps quiet that background vigilance so warmth and ease may become your baseline and you stop performing presence.
• Divine Self-Image helps you start loving your mind and body and eases negative thoughts about yourself, while keeping the motivation to improve.
• Inner Voice helps the voice in your head lift you up instead of putting you down.
• Finding Your Voice helps you work out what you actually think, feel and want, apart from what you were taught or what makes you likeable.
• Speaking Without Armor helps you drop image management and say what is true, uncertainty and struggles included.
• Unwitnessed Light helps you give your best whether or not anyone is watching, so praise and silence may stop changing how much you show up.
• Main Character Energy helps you stop apologizing for taking up space and make your choices as the author of your own life.

Endless Summer is the settling layer here. If you would rather that layer lean toward stillness than social warmth, ESSENCE: The Uncarved Block (PEACE) can take its place; Attuned and PEACE are one of Heartsong’s recommended pairings. Use one of the two, not both. Modules that repeat Attuned’s own work on worth, sensuality and closeness are left out on purpose.

Start with the full Attuned title if you want to keep it simple, or build this custom if you want the expression side included from the start. Listening guidance is in the official instructions: https://instructions.subliminalclub.com

@qOS I made a custom Khan Black Stage 1 with PEACE Core, what do you think?

[Uber_Elysium]

@qOS A custom involving Peace, Heartsong ST1, and Ascension ST2. Focusing on emotional foundation and acceptance, as well as masculine development and growth and that trio sounds pretty dope, just looking for a second opinion. Might even swap out Ascension ST2 at the beginning of the year with Emperor especially with it getting updated.

EDIT: Or do you think Peace and Heartsong ST1 would fit better in a custom with the new Khan Black? I would follow the standard progression of Khan Black stages btw. Also either way I would (at this point in time) be keeping Heartsong Stage 1 for the entire process.

@qOS
what is it about running emperor that makes people more distant and standoffish

At first I thought it was just in my head, till I broke away from emperor and noticed people that I was more approachable, easier to socialize with etc.

I have GLM with become the prize essence and WDB with synergy venus unveiled

I have Emperor and PS in my QTKS custom

The main issue is it seems like family and some coworkers are becoming more standoffish and distancing themselves from me both physically and mentally

Lastly, I’ve used my QTKS for 45+ processing days, my GLM for 25 processing days and same with WDB. Can I take a 2 week washout or would I need to do 30 days processing in order to get all the benefits before taking a 2 week washout…and does it make a difference in bloom whether its a 2 week washout or a month washout if you’re running the same stack again

[Plutus]

@qOS follow up on this, if someone already has pretty good sales skills and most of his work comes from the technical side of sales like presentations, etc has a sales rep that takes care of the actually selling but also does sales for the business side of his life but already has decent/good sales skills would remove ST1 and having those two modules be the best stack for me with A Stark Black Reality?

@qOS could you explain how masked vs ultrasonic version affects and delivers results for users? Like masked version is better because users hear “something”, or masked works differently.

Which method and framework users can use to decide masked or ultrasonic version is better for them, less recon, have more results and actions, etc.?
