Right, my bad

[Tyrath]

Are Gold Nopon coins used for anything good in endgame? I'm nearing cap again and don't know what to do with them

Just craft a level X gem.

[Tyrath]

Ya that was my plan. Was just wondering if they were used for anything else in endgame. I already have all the items from the nopon gold trader from other sources.

[Kachiko]

There's the Nopon trader as well, though I believe you get all of his stock from drops elsewhere. L10 gems are probably best though.

[Corrderio]

I don't recall anything really amazing from the trader. Though the only thing they sold I can remember is an accessory that allows non-healers to revive but that's 99 coins.

[Tyrath]

Yeah I already have all his items from other sources. L10 gems it is

[Tyrath]

Finally beat the game at 159 hrs. That was confusing as fuck lol

Spoiler: show

So the bad guys were the friends we made along the way? Since Z is just an embodiment of people not wanting change

I thought they were gonna save the merged world, not that both worlds would separate again at the end. Why the fuck were they all young again once the worlds separated??

What the fuck happened to N and M's baby? It never came up again

Our boy Rex fucks. Did he impregnate Pyra, Mythra AND Nia?!

Wonder what the expansion next year will focus on, I'm assuming it's gonna be a prequel again like Torna

Yep. Rex became an absolute Chad after gaining a few feet and muscle. Though I'm still a bit confused on how Pyra/Mythra are both there since didn't only one of them become the "main" entity at the end?

And yeah the ending is bittersweet. Makes me wonder what happened to the people of the City since they weren't part of the cycle. Then again I'm curious how they came into existence in the first place.

Spoiler: show

At the end of XC2 Pneuma (the pyra+mythra person), split her beings and made Pyra and Mythra individual people. It was the literal last thing that happened if I remember right.

Maybe. It's been years since I played. All I remember is you make a choice between Mythra or Pyra for which one you consider the "true" one or something like that and Rex supposedly admits his feelings to the choice at the very near end.

Yeah, that's at the last level. Then Pneuma does a heroic sacrifice and then they both show up on the new continent.

Yeah, it's a cool tragic bit that turns into a bittersweet element later. It serves the story well but I don't think I like for it for the sake of the franchise going down the line. It seems they can cross reincarnate so that might be something cool to explore?

[Druin]

So from what I understand of the ending:

Spoiler: show

Klaus did some shit and due to the experiment split a world in two: Alrest and Bionios/Mechonis World. I ASSUME that with Klaus being finally dealt with, both worlds were pulling back to one another which would have resulted in mass destruction of life of both planets. Melia+Nia+Crew created the Origin system to house digital data of everyone's souls/concsiousness. However, due to the desire for survival and safety of their current lives, their wills manifested to create Moebius Z/X/Y as some sort of defense mechanism. Z then hijacked the whole process and using the power of the Origin system, created his new world and froze time (The Endless Now). Then used clone soldiers to perpetuate the new world.. yada yada. When the 3 true moebius were destroyed, the worlds reverted back to the point prior to Z's hijack when the planets were due to merge together (the original reason for the Origin system). Because of the time rubberbanding, no one will have knowledge of the world Z and Moebius created because it literally will have never happened. Time-travel bullshit. And that's where we're at. I assume the "big" expansion will either be post-game with Noah and Mia crews finding each other post-world merge OR the founding of the City and N/M's origins as the original Ouroborous. I think the former is more likely seeing as like two expacs are new classes and it feels weird to completely ignore that. But who knows.

Edit:

Spoiler: show

I guess the True Moebius were actually the Origin System's AI that was corrupted by people's will for survival and safety. Also not sure if the planets were one before or not, but I think it was mentioned in-game. Or maybe theyre both different universe versions of Earth created when Klaus did his experiment. That might be the most likely thing actually and both UNIVERSES were pulling back to one another which means the worlds would merge.

[Ratatapa]

So far I’m really not feeling the story

I just started chapter 6 after all the battles and even though people kept saying chapter 5 bang was OMG

I felt it just ok the VA cast is just bland as fuck except for that one part

Story is kinda predictable

At least the gameplay is great

[Tyrath]

Just craft a level X gem.

Going back to this. Are there any gems that have materials harder to get than others? Aka which gems should I get to lvl 10 first using gold coins

I can't speak to which Xs are the hardest to farm cause I don't really remember (I'm sure someone will). But if it helps the Crit Damage and Cancel Damage Gems are BY FAR the most powerful and most useful.

[Corrderio]

Actually on the subject of arts canceling, is that only player thing or are AI controlled teammates smart enough to do it?

[AoE]

I think someone said earlier not to rely on AI to do it.

[Corrderio]

That could have been it. I remember a discussion somewhere about it.

Player only. Just remember if your other gems are too far behind, you'll be stealing aggro.
