First and foremost option 2 is the best as it’s application are far more vast and synergize well with biome domination in my opinion. Plus since not flying isn’t coming back anytime soon, run away in the sky shouldn’t really be an issus, and survivability doesnt matter if you can be countered every time. But I disagree on the notion it only has to be one option and not the fusion of two. Hear me out guys, if he get the cultivator nature, then fuse it with the Gold Kensis with the Mudropper’s help he can get a golden cultivator’s body but with the a limitation on a 7-10 kilometer range instead of 18. However it wouldn’t be an issue because of the split his body into two he can be cover more range. We have been showed nature can definitely be fused since Brangara (tho through evolution did it)but most importantly Wittral. So with this fusion, there will be a trade off of 18 kilo but compensate with survivalability.
I’m leaning towards option one because it’s the only thing that sounds close to body cultivation. Based on what the Transcendents said a while back, Sumatra has only implemented 1 of the 3 modes of power. Personally, I don’t think it’s a good idea for Inala to lock in a nature till he’s been exposed to those other paths and begins to see how he can incorporate them and then judge what he needs. But I’m also more of a “jack of all trades, pseudo master of most” type of guy in character building rather than “specialization”. The more you can do without having to specialize/sacrifice options seems more valuable to me and the cultivator nature fits that.
From what I had read previously, stacking bodies increases the range of control. It seems to me the best way to really make use of his nature of being able to move from silver to mystic would be to have cultivator as a nature and cultivate to 10 life, building the bodies at silver grade and slowly bringing them up to mystic and as each gets to mystic grade, stacking the bodies would allow his range to grow while he gains extra lives as well because killing him in that state only kills one body.
i would say option 1 the other option 2 can still be get by evolution and base on with am reading I he already gets option 3 for free it . if he plays it right he can get all 3 of the option he just to create a skill to increase option 3 chances and evolve again or get more data from the paths to get option 2
option 1 is the best in my opinion . option 2 massively upgrades his range and gives him video game boss level aoe attack range but its something he can substitute with special zingers and other bodies from the life stage to get the same effect albeit a little loss in effectiveness . option 3 is ok but someone just needs to eradicate the quin tribe and the safety net with having a spare body somewhere else that can act independently is much better than a body that relies upon the existence of something that could become a burden , like with boar king and his family they were necessary for his evolution but they are the same reason he nearly died . option 1 massively upgrades his versatility which is what in my opinion inala is best at plus that way he could also experiment with cultivation techniques and skills much more than if he was just a beast and benefit from both sides human and pranic beast , very resource expensive but the path is pretty similar to what inala has taken uptill now with his evolution to mystic grade so it's not as much of a problem . plus i mean maybe he could evolve once more with this nature , I mean the boar king evolved twice why not inala do it as well ? virala is going down the mystic human route , yarsha is going to become even more stronger , the new emperor too is a human and he is evolving his techniques as well , orakha too if he could be used by inala his nature could be very useful in helping inala better understand his mystic skill creator which is the very foundation of his evolution , there are just so many new and strong competitors that are human and are probably going to reach mystic grade level that inala if he could use their data could really become extremely strong and possibly have another evolution . in the future , I think the nature of cultivator combined with the data of the human empire ,yarsha and so on could really be enough for inala to plan a further evolution into expert mystic grade and the nature of cultivator could somehow fuse with the mystic royalty nature and that effect could be very interesting . so guys vote for option 1 , i wrote this thesis paper just so i can convince you all please choose tertiary cultivator .
dont vote for 3 because inala could create a technique that can give his people a nature like the weaponisation of mammoth clan , the technique would give his people a nature lets say in which they could be used by him to revive from them or let his people sacrifice themselves to revive inala . so it would be like orakhas revival checkpoint but much better because inalas whole clan would be his check if they all had the nature and imagine if his clansmen reached 10k or something like , dude would practically be immortal
maybe this is just me being greedy, but I don't see why he can't get both options 1 and 2 if he's able to get Ganalla and Maroppa to help him, might not even need Maroppa's help since he integrated a lot of her data and energy and stuff into his evolution, might be able to do a similar nature fusing/refining prime skill on his own, but mainly they were already doing work on finding out how to erase primary natures to weaponize secondary natures, if they succeed, which Viralla's kid might be able to help with if she has any like inherited memories or knowledge from the previous her, specifically about how she stole a nature, then what's to stop them from taking a young iron or silver grade pranic beast, giving it cultivator, removing its main nature, and then weaponising it, not to mention using that to give the entire tusk herd cultivator permanently, Inala could gain the Brimgan Royal nature he devised, take one or two cultivator nature weapons, fuse em in his tertiary nature slot to make 'Royal Cultivator' or something, maybe make the cultivator aspects tiered to his grade like everything else is, maybe like 3 bodies for base form, 6 for Gold, and 10 for Mystic. Revival would be a good way to preserve both complete knowledge as well as life compared to trying to do the same with just another body through cultivator, but it doesn't feel like its worth sacrificing a whole nature slot for givin the time and resource requirement to even prep it, plus it kinda sounds like the groundwork for it has already been stably set up in his primary nature and with the two rules he incorporated into his existence, I feel like he could get this as an easy freebie if he makes himself evolve a minor stage from beginner Mystic grade to intermediate Mystic grade, maybe advanced at most. oh and I assume it wouldn't work this way, but in the hypothetical that it does, if Inala had 10 bodies at the mystic grade with the 18k range per body, resulting in a stacked range of 180k, would that apply to the biome bombs too, like could he have a small kingdom sized biome bomb that he just carried around with him? or would the stacked body range not affect that like I assume?
