Five Immortals Sect route notes
Five Immortals Sect is strongest when you commit first to poison or fist instead of sampling every attractive manual at once.
Use Crimson Immortal (赤仙法) as the first comparison point, then add the other representative arts only when they reinforce the same combat plan.
40/100 beginner fit means the faction is better after you understand range, recovery, relationships, or another supporting system.
