How do forsaken raise punisher percentages?
I’ve never really quite been able to figure out how to use forsaken effectively, as while they can do a lot of damage, you can’t do much to the other chosen while the forsaken is busy.
Okie, I'm finally home!
Oh when I mean that I more less in a similar vein of using a specialty commander, although they have a lot more nuance and utility than a specialty commander.
Imo, the best way to use forsaken and have a plan for training or using them well is to contextualize what you want them to do and what they can do to make your work easier, which is just a fancy way of saying to give them a sort general purpose or "role" for them to do.
So let's apply this to your earlier problem of raising punisher % for hypnosis quickly.
"What kind of tactics do I know so far for doing this well?"
-We know higher pleasure will give higher % for fantasize so we should have a forsaken that can do that well, picking a good candidate and corrupting best to suit that role, maybe distorting them with Negotiation or Temptation for a Pleasure bonus would be good.
-Another good tactic is an orgy, which we can use a forsaken for that also, either using high damage output, or using an aversion distorted forsaken with her unique defiler to cause a orgy easier (albeit weaker)
So now you have you have potentially two different routes you can train a forsaken, with the main objective of their role to farm fantasize %.
-Find a good candidate
-corrupt them to do the role as best as they can
-train them to the level that we need to do the role properly
Doing so and following either of those tactics will not only do what you're asking for, but you will also have:
-A forsaken that deals extreme pleasure damage
OR
-A forsaken that helps you do orgies easier and more efficiently
Either way you have a forsaken that can help you with not only this problem, but potentially more now that they're all trained up. Combined with my earlier post about using the respective punisher for raising punisher % you can apply a lot of that logic to a forsaken made for that sort of role, with the trade-offs and benefits that come with it
Tl;dr: Try to think of a role for your forsaken to do and make your campaign easier. Once you do, corrupt them for that role and train them to do that role as best as they can. And have a good pool of forsaken that allows you the utility to try something else if a specific tactic or plan you tried isn't working out.
Sorry that its a bit long but hopefully it helps more than it confuses
