Homam / Nashira armor possible source

[divisortheory]

This is something I posted to Alla, but cross-posting here for visibility. The more I think about this the more I think it's correct.

I have a strong theory on how these two armor sets are obtained:

First off, it involvs Limbus. We did Limbus the other day and after clearing it, a regular Rare/Ex item dropped called "Ivory Chip". The description said something about indentations, can't remember exactly. Anyway, near the entrance to Limbus, there is a message when you click something that says something like "There are multiple six-sided indentations here."

2+2=4 right?

What I think is that you gather some combination of these chips, trade it to that target, and boom, something happens.

But what happens?

Well, consider this:

There are 2 Limbus areas, Temenos and Apollyon
There are hints in the DAT files of battles against 2 boss type monsters, Ultima and Omega.
There are 2 sets of mysterious armor, Nashira and Homam

There are 5 pieces of Homam armor.
There are 5 pieces of Nashira armor.
There are 5 items in the DAT files related to "tissue from Ultima".
There are 5 items in the DAT files related to "tissue from Omega"

There is an NPC in the middle of Al'Taieu named "Esha'ntarl" with no known way of getting to him.
There is a zone in the DAT files in the Lumoria region called "The Last Stand" (fitting name if that's the where the real boss of Limbus is, eh?)
There is text in the DAT files for "The Last Stand" that has references of "fighting", and text for menus like "Do you want to give up?"

So put 2 and 2 together, and I think you see what I'm getting at.

btw Homam Jobs + Nashira Jobs + God Armors Jobs = 15.

BRD is in there twice. BST don't get shit.

Edit: Brd isnt there twice.
editx2: In the year and a half ive been in end-game. I never knew BST could wear an osode/god gear.

[layoneil]

BST don't get shit.

BST can use God Gear.

So far we can enter only NW, SW, NE, and NW. Central Apollyon must open up after you complete the four sub-areas?

Tyche <3's the edit button. Not an excuse, but we've never had a BST in our LS, so i'll use that to excuse my stupidity.

Central Temenos, no one's been there yet.

Some text that may relate to the chips.

edit:
The Last Stand is in the Rise of Zilart .dat folder, so it probably isn't related to Limbus.

way to steal my chip theory

[Demetrios]

So you collect 4 chips to enter Central Apollyon and 3 Chips to enter Central Temenos? 3 Chips are left unused.

Anyone tried them on the strange apparatuses yet? Probably doesnt do shit, but who knows.

I did earlier. Tried smoky chip in the maze with core and doctor status...nothing.

[NynJa]

3 chips, 3 broken apparatusses.....

Actually there's 10 chips in the dat files.

BTW, where did I steal your chip theory?

lol, yea, that looks pretty bad i guess. I actually never read that final response until just now cuz I couldn't find the thread again, once i learned of the chips and the message I started trying to piece together my own idea of what happens, which is why mine ties in with Esha'ntarl in the middle and the others tie in with Central Apollyon, which I didn't even know about. The Ultima & Omega ideas were also my own, and so was the armor trading for their body parts, but I imagine it doesn't look that way after reading other posts in that thread Anyway, w/e life sucks i'll get over it.

[Kaylia]

Almost everyone who checked .dat made the same theories Not a good idea to start arguing about who find out first.



For Esha'something, it just means she is in a cs. It might as well be a cs after both mega then before. Or maybe there is a completely independant quest that will be implemented later with her.

Dun dun dun...
