[Lockecole]

Nice fluff ^^

Diabolos was always badass.

"How could you possess such resolve even after losing the light of the crystals...?
A teardrop? So that's it... You heal your agony and sorrow through tears... "

{Tear of Altana}

Might need CoP entirely completed, and God I sure hope so.

oh god yes, then I can level summoner in the dunes with Diabolos and just laugh at everyone who's too lazy to do CoP <3

[GRT]

read all of the dialogue guys, they are for different people on different stage of CoP without any story spoilers


it seems you don't even need to have done any CoP at all to get diabolos

[Lasitha]

the POL page says u need to be past certain part in CoP

[Marius]

but someone(can't remember who) said that u need to have progressed in COP to be able to fight him.

its how far we don't know. ether u need to complete COP or just get past his BC i think

[SephYuyX]

POL pages says you just need to of had beaten 3-5 in terms of CoP pre-reqs.

[Lasitha]

<3 completed CoP ftw.

[Not Kuno]

POL pages says you just need to of had beaten 3-5 in terms of CoP pre-reqs.

No it doesn't. It just says:
The terrestrial avatar Diabolos made his first appearance in "Darkness Named," and now those able to defeat him at the height of his strength will learn to harness the power of dreams.


And:
*These quests can only be undertaken after progressing past a certain point in the Chains of Promathia story.


I think you just combined them.

[Marius]

goddamn my static breaking ><

looks like i'll be admiring from a far till i pick up another static

[GRT]

POL website

The quest to obtain an avatar long awaited by summoners will soon be available. The terrestrial avatar Diabolos made his first appearance in "Darkness Named," and now those able to defeat him at the height of his strength will learn to harness the power of dreams.

can mean anything i guess, but it doesn't specifically say "you need to have seen diabolos in the mission bc to be able to fight him for an avatar"

but read the dialogues for shrouded maw again:

The force was tremendously powerful--strong enough to shatter my realm of dreams.
Tell me. Who was that light coming from?
I called all of you back into my realm to learn which of you possesses such power.
You are the first to arrive.
Now I will test your power.
Prepare yourself!
This dream is no dream, but a fleeting illusion before eternal slumber!
So...you are the one who possesses the light of the crystal.
The people of Vana'diel need you in order to be saved.
I will lend you my power.

i believe that's for people who hasn't reached the point in the mission to fight him yet

and...

So you have come, confronter of the Emptiness and liberator of Vana'diel.
When last we fought, I could feel the light of the crystal.
You possess a power great enough to dissipate dreams.
I shall submit myself to your will. You may use my form in the waking world as you desire.
However, you must first prove yourself strong enough to undertake such a feat.
You shall witness the full extent of my power. This dream is no dream...
Underestimate your enemy, and this battle shall be as a fleeting illusion before eternal slumber!
Your power is impressive. I admit defeat.
I believe you can save the people of Vana'diel. Use my powers wisely.

that's for people who have defeated him in the mission

and...

So you have come, ≺Player Name≻!
How dare you thrust humanity into the depths of despair!
Why were you not destroyed in the presence of the mothercrystal?
Traitor!
Plummet into the abyss of endless nightmares!
So, this dream is yet again near its end... I despise the light in you, ≺Player Name≻.
What is it? What are you planning?
You wish to use that light to defeat Promathia?
You are a fool.
But with your strength, you may be able to accomplish your task.
I cannot tell if you will succeed. I can perceive all with the power of dreams, but only after the events have been played out.
I shall entrust you with my power.
How you decide to use it will show me your fate.

that's for people who have reached the point in the CoP missions to have seen the mothercrystal, forgot which one that was exactly

and...

I know all you have achieved from your dreams.
The Emptiness continues to disappear from the world, and souls entering my world of Dynamis have become scarce.
You have saved Vana'diel without losing your own soul. You must be proud, ≺Player Name≻.
From now on, I will concentrate my energies into restoring the cursed world of Dynamis to its original form in the realm of dreams.
But I cannot accomplish such a task without great power--power I will receive by drawing you into my realm.
Oh, but you are already a captive in my everlasting dream!
How could you possess such resolve even after losing the light of the crystals...?
A teardrop? So that's it... You heal your agony and sorrow through tears...
I understand now. I understand, because I was once like you.
Because reality is filled with sorrow and pain, mankind can also come to know bliss, joy on a scale far surpassing any placid dream.
Still, I became a terrestrial avatar in order to assist mankind, and I fully intend to continue my work.
And so I shall bestow upon you that which you so desire--a real dream.

that's for people who have completed CoP

and finally

So you have come, ≺Player Name≻.
You wish to challenge me again?
You shall have your rematch.
Bask in the power of the unattainable dream!

that's for repeatable attempts at that bc

[Sethe]

bloody good points... inspires me with hope.
