Rhapsodies of Vana'diel [Missions]

[Aumaan_Kujata]

I don't think anyone's mentioned it directly, though I might have missed it, but that extra CS on the Empyreal Paradox goblin isn't some kind of "oops that's for Rhapsodies III" mistake. It plays normally when you re-enter the area via the central elevator, just like the one in Alzadaal. (Maybe you have to get the Alzadaal one first? I dunno.) Has anyone found a similar scene anywhere else? Throne Room, the arena in Walk of Echoes, the Celestial Nexus all seem at least possible. Probably not Hazhalm, since apparently Odin's just chilling in Alexander's shell for... some reason. (In-joke related to the track names for Odin and Alexander being backwards, maybe, or is that giving them too much credit?)

Why were they draining power from Odin when that's Alexander?

Spoiler: show

Basically using Alexander as bait to draw out Odin and leech Darkness off him. Ditto with Promathia, Atomos, etc. -I'm surprised they didn't go after Fenrir or Diabolos for the same reasons.

I'm not sure if this is related to the issue of getting past 'Sacrifice' for everyone, but in case you haven't seen the last known issues:

- An issue wherein it is not possible to properly progress through the Wings of the Goddess missions "Edge of Existence" or "Forget Me Not" while undertaking the Rhapsodies of Vana'diel mission "Sacrifice".

- An issue wherein players who have accepted the Wings of the Goddess missions "Edge of Existence" or "Forget Me Not" while undertaking the Rhapsodies of Vana'diel mission "Sacrifice" can only leave The Walk of Echoes by Teleport or Warp.

Thats what was broken fo me. They did emergency maintinence on the 3 areas outside jeuno along with their shadowreign versions and fixed the conflux in WoE to let people leave. Maw CSs work now as well so long as u click the maw twice. 1st time gives the TP option so cancel and click again to trigger the CSs.

Spoiler question about Volto Oscuro's weapon of choice.

Spoiler: show

During the CS when Volto Oscuro throws his weapon, the camera lingers on it and clearly shows it's an Excalibur. That fact elicits a surprised comment from Iroha later on. He also uses it when you fight him. Considering the revelation that comes later about his identity, it made sense in my case because I own both Excalibur and Aegis. I'm wondering if he shows up with different weapons depending on which (if any) relics/mythics the player has.

[Gokulo]

It was the same for me and I don't own any. I think it's always the same.

[The Old Man]

Then I guess it was just a coincidence. It would've been interesting though.

[Seha]

I admit I would have felt a bit weird if he threw a gun at me.

TAKE THAT! *stabs gun in the ground* ..derp?

Spoiler for the equipment:

Spoiler: show

Is the Future Me's equipment always Tessera Saio?

[Gokulo]

Yes

My only R/E/M is Mandau. It was an Excalibur still.

Question, about latest missions:

Spoiler: show

One of the heroines mentioned that the player and themselves were free of darkness/emptiness from fighting Promathia. Is that true? I can't remember if that happened or if we just accepted that all the races had to have some emptiness in them to hold Promatia, and those that try to take their emptiness away had big side effects

Or, am I mixing up the plots between Kingdom hearts?

Spoiler: show

You had your individual race trait cleansed after climbing the tower, but you still have emptiness.

[Commskywalker]

The cutscene made it look like they spawn right at K-9, but it's not nighttime so I can't be sure where to look for them

[Spira]

yup am waiting for nighttime too

[Commskywalker]

None spawned here at K-9, but there was some structures that looked like this place back earlier in the zone, so they might be there

[pairak]

Im at H-7, they spawned at 20:00.

[Commskywalker]

I see them at K-9 now, I expected them to spawn at 18:00 for some reason

[Mojo]

After you kill 3 naraka, click on the stone door thing again for a cutscene and one of the rhapsody key items. Then head to east adoulin and speak with Ploh trisbank, then zone into ceizak battlegrounds.
