Is there any point to Training Dummies?

[Agramahad]

So, there I am with a newly built training hall. I set my guy up on a training dummy and then go out to the kitchen to get a drink. I come back about a minute later just in time to see my guy dead on the floor before the game loading back to the title screen. Wondering what the hell just happened I reloaded my game, started training again and moused over my character to view the stats.

I found my spirit stat going down by ten points about every four or five seconds. This means after about a minute of training your character dies unless you stop to rest and regain spirit. What the hell is the point in that? If thats how they work whats the point in having training dummies at all in the game. At least when your character used them in Kenshi it stopped to take care of basic needs (If the AI was on at least, I admit its been a while since I last played that game).

Am I missing something or is this feature in need of a bug fix or update? As it is, the training hall I just built is pointless.

If you want to afk train you need Chi of Harmony level 5.
This will make you immune to hysteria. (which is what kills you when you run out of spirit and keep training)

Level 3 of Chi of Harmony is enough. After level 3 you stop loosing health of hysteria.

You need inner techniques.
For better gameplay i recommend learning Primordial Chaos, it is usually on some sects, and usually in worlds that are 50 plots. So create a world like this and learn it.
The easiest is Art of Harmony inner kungfu. The second is Drunken Immortal it is in a Drunk sect, it is very useful together with Wine drinking song fist.

I'll add a little more detail for you and others in case it comes in handy. Though it might not be PERFECTLY accurate.

The chi levels from inner kung fu's afford you some kind of immunity at 3 and a doubling of the applied effects of certain skills, or damage of again certain skills at level 5. For harmony, I believe acupoint block lasts 2 turns instead of 1 in terms of shutting down their skills as it states "Chi of harmony bonus"

The reason people will tell you to get drunken immortal and drunken fist inners is for 3 reasons.

1: It up's chi of harmony level, for the immunity to hysteria. Once at level 3 you can train indefinitely without dying.

2: If you get the drunken immortal and drunken fist INNER kung fu. As long as drunken immortal is activated, you'll also use the right nodes to activate drunken fist (I think that's what its called) so it's a freebie with zero extra effort.

3: Drunken immortal, stops you staggering when drunk so it's less annoying. But also raises the stacks you can get before you pass out drunk. Wine drinking skill itself which also increases that, is VERY slow to raise. NPC's usually don't have it early on nor the drunken immortal inner. So what you can easily do once you have it is. You talk to npcs who aren't teamed up with you. Request they follow you, go to the tavern. Once they're close enough to you while you're sitting at a bar for 2 or 4. You can do a special "cheers" interaction for a tiny bit of gold and have them take drink with you.

Do that a few times and you can make them pass out because you can drink way more. Then you can simply rob them blind or even take their heads.

As for art of harmony, it's a handy early game inner kung fu for chi of harmony level, which ALSO increases your chi itself. So extra energy for leaping about and swimming.

Primordial chaos, is a HUGE power spike. Simply learning it, increases your meridian field itself and grants you more meridian points. You don't have to do anything to activate it, simply learn it and it will always be active.

A true gentleman does not rob or take heads, he makes people uncoscious in battles and feed them poop.
