Yup.
Yup.
Maybe I'll give it a go tomorrow then. If it means I can bypass cryptlurker weapon farming
Usually the last EX trial before a new expansion is easier because most people will already have access to BIS equipment.
Nice. Wish I could find a group of people my server but between me playing severely casual now and not trusting the typical "We got an active FC" bullshit claim seems like more trouble than it's worth.
We got an active FC = You're gonna deal with a lot of drama and immaturity.
There are plenty of learning groups for Diamond on the PF right now. I just watched a guide video and joined a learn party, we ended up clearing after 3-4 tries. No drop though
Normally when I get a claim about an "active FC looking to do stuff" it means the FC had only 5ish members online with an even larger portion being logged out for weeks and months. Even then the online users are never actually active in said FC.
Sucks I moved to Ultros back when and then again to Siren when I came back this time around under the same hollow promise. Maybe I should just return to Hyperion on some point and say "the hell with it".
Some reports out now of people with epilepsy being triggered by flashing light patterns in the third NieR raid tier, oops
Too bad for them, I guess.
People data mined the Zenos scene to try to find out what weapon he picked up. The results?
Spoiler: show
I really don't see the point of hiding the weapon. The Japanese love their damned secrets a little too much for me but I'm also not into speculation like some others are.
Did the katana he was using in Stormblood have some significance? I vaguely remember something about a prophecy, did you need to be on SAM to get some extra details like DRG in HW?
Speculation is that the weapon Zenos uses will be the weapon for the new physical dps job in Endwalker and they are waiting to announce that at fan fest.
Zenos was trained as a hand to hand fighter in his youth until the invasion of Doma when he picked up the katana from people he defeated there. I think they go over it in some of the flashback cutscenes with Asahi in the 4.2 or 4.3 story.
So maybe it will be closer to how he was trained to fight considering SE was very obvious about Zenos not being particularly good at using katanas. He's just strong as fuck for a mortal.
Look at the WandaVision thread and how people were performing the craziest mental gymnastics in speculation lol.
Just played through all the expansions and the only prophecy I remember was something about the rise and fall of the sun that Urianger tells you before you take off for Kugane. Zenos also repeats it later on. Can’t remember exactly when.
But it wasn’t so much as a prophecy as it was a proverb from what I can recall. Didn’t seem like there was anything deeper to it.
Found it.
"Look ye where the sun doth rise, see crimson embers, darkening skies. Look ye where the sun doth fall, see azure lost amidst the squall."
Better than my speculations. I thought maybe it would be Hein's katana given he was in the promo art but nowhere in the MSQ.
Given the timing of the next fan fest and the reveal of the job (mid May) and the release of 5.5 part 2 (end of May), makes sense why they would hide it
