Reflections of Apollo

[Apollo]

Day 4 of test stack:

Dragon Reborn ST 2

StarkQ

PS

[Apollo]

I’m having an easier time with Stark. It’s not without recon, I feel it, but much more manageable so far. However, I am bracing myself, the worst recon with Stark hit me in Week 2.

I still feel EQ in the background, the effects are still there.

the worst recon with Stark hit me in Week 2.

If it does again, what’s your plan?

[Apollo]

Shrivel up in a cocoon my friend, and tough it out. Maybe remove the batteries on my keyboard so I don’t speak in tongues here in the forums…

[RVconsultant]

NOW APOLLO!

[Azriel]

I still feel EQ in the background, the effects are still there.

What do you feel? How’s it mixing with Stark?

[Apollo]

That congruence I felt on EQ, that solid feeling, and strong work ethic. The self-esteem, and I still see that respect vibes, just more approachable now.

The change for example, on EQ I don’t have the energy to debate even the things I’m interested about, but with Stark I’m up for it and I had fun doing it. So far.

I was just talking to a friend earlier, and the conversation turned, well you know how it is. On EQ I’d have closed the app and resumed again some other time. Stark, nah hit me, let’s do this so we can laugh about it later.

Not discounting the initial high, but so far I feel better with Stark this time around after being on EQ after sometime.

Bracing myself for week 2 though.

Did you think about making a custom mixing emperor with charisma modules so you get both stark and emperor effects?

[Apollo]

That crossed my mind, or Stark with more alpha modules.

I was tempted to but I’d like to try Khan first to see if it works well for me, and then finally make my first custom.

[Sub.Zero]

That crossed my mind, or Stark with more alpha modules.

Stark and the Commander make a great combo.

I was tempted to but I’d like to try Khan first to see if it works well for me, and then finally make my first custom.

What would be your custom about?

[Apollo]

Just to perfect my well rounded alpha first, something tailored to my current needs and that I could be happy with for maybe a year. After that maybe start thinking about more wealth and intelligence customs, perhaps fitness as well or development of a talent or skill.

It will be my first custom, but I’m sure once I get started, it’s on.

[Sub.Zero]

Have you thought about making RM its heart maybe?

Azriel has reported some interesting things which sound very alphish if it comes to the use of RM:

Main Disc. Thread - Renaissance Man

Tested another loop yesterday Caveat: this might be interacting with my stack to contribute to some of these effects but these tests were RM as the first sub of the sub with a day rest in between. This sub masters the line between creative potential of chaos and the order structure of execution, strategy, and multi-faceted discipline incredibly well. Further updates There is an insane burst of creativity -it’s like pure chaos tempered with logic and execution. I’ve never experienced anythi…

[Sub.Zero]

Another thing is RM was meant to be built along with the Emperor line:

Main Disc. Thread - Renaissance Man

Fun “Behind the Scenes” development note: Renaissance Man began as Emperor: DaVinci’s Legacy. Then, we realized we wanted to focus less on empire building and more on cultivating creative self-expression and craftwork, so we expanded beyond that. By now, there’s enough empire / wealth titles to stack with RM if you want that scripting.

[Apollo]

You know the more I read about RM the more I’m intrigued. I want to develop my musical talents, and was looking at ultimate artist before hand.

Thanks buddy I just saw it right now.

@Azriel that was beautiful my friend. What a write up. I’m beginning to think we could expect more of this smoothness in Q+

Exciting times!!!

Just to clarify-do you mean Alpha-ish? If so I found RM incredibly Alpha with strong social and emotional connection and expression. I’m blown away at the assertiveness and confidence on it.

[Apollo]

Yes that’s right up my alley. Now I’m tempted to try RM even more.

I wonder if I could stack it. It’s light-ish, right? Like PCC?

[Sub.Zero]

I was considering that combo but the Alchemist is my primal archetype so… I added Mogul and the Alchemist to my custom instead.

What’s yours?

[Apollo]

Heavy stack. Almost terribly heavy.

DR ST2, Khan ST1 and StarkQ.

If I did try to run RM, I may have to forego the Ultima’s I use on that day.

[Sub.Zero]

I gave up on the idea of using DR with anything else but another healing sub. Like now I’m running DR St4 + the Alchemist St1 (which is about purifying). Although people reported great results when they combined their subs with DR I decided to stick to what Saint said about that:

Main Disc. Thread - Renaissance Man

It can, but remember that healing subliminals have a tendency to overpower everything else in a stack. They can keep you mired in the past, or in a constant state of healing. I actually alternate between a healing stack and a productivity / creative stack every few weeks to battle this. Might be better to leave ST3 out of the custom and just run it as part of the stack.

I don’t want to rock the boat I just thought you could consider what he said when working on your stack or custom.

[Apollo]

Thanks buddy. Yes I saw that. I had a good time stacking ST1, ST2 however definitely rocked the boat. I even lost some of what I think was my progress with other things, it’s was just weird, even my vibes was off, but so far, (I think) maybe ST2 is relenting, now that I’ve been on it since the beginning of Feb.

I’m crossing my fingers ST3 would be easier, but if not, then… cocoon time
