Hi everyone. I've been playing this game for a few days now and have gotten myself into a bit of a mess. I'm a 26th lvl Ronin duelist (ex Akodo) and cannot leave an area (City of Rememberance) because my koku went from 5 to 1 and I've encountered a cut purse. I have to resolve that before I can leave, but I don't have enough koku to sell any tea, pearls or silk to lvl up and raise my athletics skill et al. Is the only way to raise my koku to add FB friends or is seppuku my only way out?
Thanks in advance.

there is some koku-granting equipment that you might have access to as a lvl 26...Gunso? Badge of Authority?
Alternately you can feel free to add anyone in the "Add Me" thread to your dynasty. Once you have your dynasty up to a point where your koku pool is decent, you can actually unfriend them -- they'll still be in your dynasty in the game.
Also, even if there are 'bad' effects to some random encounters, it's generally okay to do them once or twice -- it's the first level of mastery that really starts giving you bad stuff*. If there's an action that costs nothing but gives a glory/honor hit, it's generally not that big of a deal to do it once when you're stuck. Does every action for that random have a cost, either in items or koku?
*Excepting, of course, Pekkle no Oni and Low on Supplies.

I think even the 'robbed!' option costs koku, if what he's saying is correct. I'm not sure -- it's been a while since I came across that particular random.

Ahh yes... I've been rich for so long that I've completely forgotten about the meaning of 3 koku in the beginning, you are correct Mai. As you've counseled, the best way to escape this situation is to either equip a koku granting item or to add at least 6 people to your dynasty (1 koku per 3 people).

It's possible through equipment to not have to have anyone in your dynasty, so if you don't want to friend strangers or harass your actual FB friends with requests to join the game, you don't have to. For the purposes of not having to start over though, I'm just saying that friending people who play the EE game can be a good temporary measure until you are able to find such equipment. ![:)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/smiley.png) It's possible that Jay just didn't realize with the recent addition of ronin chars that this job could very well be impossible for low-leveled players. Maybe it can be changed slightly so there can be an option of having the 'robbed' action cost all of your current koku pool or something. Or maybe the life of a ronin will just be hard at first. ![;)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/wink.png)

Thank you, everyone. I appreciate the help. Here I thought 26th lvl was an up and comer, but I saw the 100+ list and am humbled again. someday....
I'm off to look for that add me list so I can forget the City of Rememberance.
Thanks again.

Also, since we're talking about koku, you might want to know which are the items that give the best koku rate. According to our list, they are: Koku:HAND - Miya Map (2 for Hunting 10) BODY - SYMBOL - Fan of Command (3 for Battle 20 and Glory 250) +100 Glory /unavailable/ - Badge of authority (2 for Etiquette 10) KATA - Otomo technique (5 for Courtier 10) FOLLOWER - Travelling Peddler (5 for Courtier 10) POSITION - Governor (10 for Courtier 10) SOUL - Ki-Rin's Blessing (3 for Meditation 10 and Taint<100) +50 Honor And you can find the places/missions where they can be acquired here: rokuganee.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=faqredux&action=display&thread=2030

List should be updated with: FOLLOWER - Imperial bride (5 for Etiquette 10) POSITION - Imperial (10 for Etiquette 12) Unfortunately it is not helpful for Hiroie-san (but may be helpful for Joji-san).
