I think this skill line is probably my favorite skill line in the game and one I have no complaints on. Even if you don't want to put put all your points into this branch, the first two are still extremely useful by themselves to bring., which is great. Overall, really good set of skills and I'm extremely happy these skills haven't been touched.
 

I have some different opinions on the understanding of the Pipspook Questz skill branch.
However, first of all, I believe this branch is absolutely necessary because everyone knows that Pipspook is a content that leaves a poor user experience. But the core of this poor experience lies in the fact that 'Pipspook is completely disconnected from other content' and 'Pipspook is very monotonous and boring'.
On this basis, I am very dissatisfied with the way this branch solves the above problems. It purely attempts to solve the problem by "increasing production", and even occupies 3 insight points.
Instead of addressing the issue through more sincere means, such as using process selection to expand the acquisition process (group burning and soul piercing/phantom explosion), as seen in the case of Vello and Vortex.
I have seen a post that provides a relatively detailed description of the problem and proposes a solution. I hope you are interested in learning more and can share your thoughts.

I think that's an interesting way to look at it. I do think the idea of the Pipspook changes could be really fun. Sadly, I do think this is the best we will get for Pipspooks. This is mainly because I don't think Klei wants to rework the Pipspooks from their role of toy hunting. Plus, I think the devs would prefer them to be pathetic (hence the pun on pipsqueak) and weak, especially now with the introductions of Bigspooks. Klei is very infamous for making certain branches of the tree just quality of life to address the real problem with characters rather than fixing them, with this 100% being the case. A good example of this is the fact that, rather than reworking Woodie's weremoose to be viable, Klei locked it behind 4 skills in his skill tree. Maybe that's why I and a lot of people don't really rip into this branch, the process is so mind numbingly bad for little payout that a branch that fixes it is automatically good. Still, I do like the idea of Pipspooks bringing your inventory for you and forming your own Pipspook civilization. Cool idea all around.

I'm sorry, I'm a bit lost on this one. Is there a skill that increases the Sisturn's sanity gain? Sisturn 1 only extends the duration of the Sisturn and Sisturn 2 decreases the sanity drain Wendy and her friends receives

The only thing I can think of is if you combine the crown with the Sisturn

I think it has something to do with the second perk causing sanity aura to be less effective? I think it had the unintended consequence of upping its base sanity. I’m out of the country so I can’t test it, but use insight and check out how much it gives without blessed sisturn 2/3
