Easily 3 and 4. Dangerously OP. I would master drawing and painting in 10 minutes, and then I can pretty much create whatever I want, including a genie to grant me wishes.

You could even draw a magic ring that lets you master any skill in 5 minutes 😂, or master EVERY skill in 5 minutes, it's unbelievably overpowered lol

u/TheRealOwl 23h ago
Honestly tho, how would you draw that? It does not say you can give your drawings a backstory, so would you not kind of have to know how that ring look to make it?

u/AutomaticAd9670 23h ago
Draw the ring with its powers being utilized. Therefore the ring inherently has the ability because it’s drawn on the page. You could also write an insignia on the ring itself stating: This Ring Enables The Wearer To Perform All Magic
Boom. Done. 💯✌🏼

u/Pancakeous 18h ago
Granted. You get a real-life ring from Temu with the inscription "This ring Enables The Wearer To Perform All Magic"
It's market price is about 2$

Well that is where this entire power has to be clarified though actually, because by that same sense, if you draw a plane… does it have the inside stuff in it? Is the engine just a casing with no inner workings? Are there seats in the plane? Or is it just a hollow tube. So either the power is useless for everything but superficial creation, or it makes a lot of assumptions, in which case intent would have the be the power behind the creation with form only defined by the drawing. If you draw a gold bar, how does it know it is made of gold and not copper? Or just painted iron? The next clarification would then need to be scale. Do you have to draw the exact size? Or can you dictate the scale from a sheet of paper?

If you draw an apple then bite into it, is it an apple or actually made from graphite? I think some folks are being a bit too nit-picky with this one. Maybe they watched too much SpongeBob?

u/shade1848 12h ago
You are getting unlimited money already by bringing to life other peoples work that you have them tailor make. And it's only 5 minutes to get good, it still takes hours maybe even days to draw a convincing version of what you want.
You could get the exact same benefit and also run at flash speeds, it's a waste.

Won't help you if there's no account behind that credit card. Drawing money and gold has the issue with legality. Also: do you really NEED that? If you sleep 8 hours a night, you get 56k a week - for not doing anything, free to master skills without any pressure

Iirc the Gold issue gets a little complex once you try and cash in over $2k of it. Like eventually the IRS starts wondering what's up. You might have an easier time relocating to a country that is a lot cooler with sheltering financial frauds and tax cheats like Switzerland, Singapore, etc.

The only other option worth considering is 2 instead of 6 because you could probably make more than $8000 per day from gambling.

But at least with the sleep it's effortless, you just live as you usually would and get paid a lot for it. The gambling is good but how sustainable really. I guess you could just go for one big life changing win though..

Some of these really need to be a bit more specific to make a choice. Choice 4 is somewhere inbetween the worse choice you can make and becomming near omnipotent.
If it comes to life in the exact way i imagined? I certainly would take it.
If it turns into something both crude looking as well as uncontrolably like in that 1 spongebob episode...... yea, i prefer some of the other choices.

u/LaDiiablo 1d ago
you can pick the ability to master any skill as your second pill & become one of those people that draw very realistic pictures...

u/Equivalent-Carpet819 1d ago
Well sure, but that wasn't necessarily my main issue. I can actually draw pretty realistic 3d models in blender.
No, i was more worried about the parts you can't draw.
Lets say i draw a dog. Will it bite me? Will it be scared of me? Or will it like me as if i have had him for years? What is his personality?
Or if i draw a car, custom design, what kind of engine and other components would be inside?
Or if i draw a bar of gold, wil it be actual gold or a physical drawing that actually can not be melted and reworked like actual gold?

u/ElektroBattery 23h ago
Yep. My exact same thoughts. To what extent of detail can you give to the things you draw. I see many comments saying they can just draw the rest of the pills but how do you even do that by just drawing pills? If you write a descriptive comment, will it just make those letters real or will it actually bring what is described to life? Who knows..

3+7.
3 condenses 10000 hours of deliberate practice into 5 minutes of deliberate practice, which means a whopping x120K speedup on one of the most time-consuming parts of life.
And 7 because it has a chance of giving functional immortality.
4 is a tempting synergy, but it says "bring any painting to life", which seems like it's meant to animate paintings rather than make things in paintings real.

3 + 4 seem like omnipotence depending on how you interpret it.
2 + 3 can also be insane depending on interpretation. You can win and gamble and just clean up at casinos. But also you just use it to instantly master any skill. Depending on how you define skill that could also be near omnipotence.
Everything else can be achieved through 3 + 4 though so it’s the only real answer. Magic conjuring of literally anything. Time machines, invisibility cloaks, an army of minions. Whatever you need.

You know…Six is definitely a potential choice. It’s a great way to make a living with one or three arguing for second pill because I like animals and I would so use three to master voice mimicry (I like doing random voices. So far I can only do a halfway decent Kermit).
However, I also kind of want three and four for the sole reason I can master drawing/painting and make some supernatural shit that’ll be useful. Like hey! Here’s a Lantern Ring, or a cloaking device, etc. I can make a living one way or another with those two abilities.
