That isn't really the case. I'll once again TOOT the fuck out of my own horn... if I can get approved for exalted spell with 0 dangerous encounters, 0 events, 0 non-restrained fights, and like one 'training' / sparring log... I think anyone can as long as they go in with the right kind of mindset.
I don't know about Spires, but Eternia 3, there is no "danger" requirement. You just need to have a good story and a good enough reason to justify a power boost.
18 logs sounds like too much, to me. Like you just slapped together a bunch of random scenes that had something interesting happen (a fight, an event, etc) rather than pivotal character moments, true character development (not the shitty Eternia 'dev' lingo, actual literary character development).
Apologies posting from phone but while that's a fair assessment I'm not someone who really engages with the verb system of the game so that's kinda an unfounded stab at me.
It's TRUE I get pretty anxious about posting apps and I sometimes take entire days to agonize over tiny details that noone gives a crap about like finding a nice pic for my app etc... but my dev for that character involve long conversations about the nature of Necromancy with every other necromancer in the settlement, followed by medical dev and formal necromancy training then followed by personal experimentation and prayer to Azrael. I save every app I make and I can show it to you if youd like when I get back from D&D.
The random fights got me the ability over all that work I put into it is my punchline.
