It's in Saurtavoir's notes.
To accomplish this, he set his eyes on the subjugated former Republic of Landis─in particular, Mannatheihwo, the only city in the republic to boast its own company of mage-knights. Though it was common practice for the Garleans to disband the knight companies of the nations it conquered and absorb them into the imperial army, their hatred of all things magical compelled them to quash the mage-knights of Mannatheihwo entirely. Fearing for their lives, these sorcerers had fled their homes and scattered across once-proud Landis. Knowing this, Legatus Gabranth set out in search of them.
There's an order of mage-knights from there.

Fabineau is Mannatheihwon as well, (I think that's the adjectival whatever the hell is Sarty's and the Augur's X Flame cast is named)
Fabineau's notes also confirm "Soranus" is a common name in the region, which means Annia and Julia are likely Mannatheihwon as well

On Sartauvoir in the Dalriada, I also like his "Basch! I hope you're watching!" line,
also how Lyon calls Menenius "Boy," in some lines
I mentioned yesterday how I felt Lyon's interactions with Menenius and Noah lost that "mentor/father figure" vibe so I like the lines that lend on it

Don't think that's right either.... the way it's worded suggests that the diablo armament was abandoned or something, and that they never successfully summoned diabolos into it or at all

Is anyone else really annoyed by the Timeworn Artifact bottleneck? Like yes, I do understand that the idea is that we have had months to work on that step, but still its crazy that Loathsome memories can come in a chunk of 5 from a relatively quick Castrum run and Raw Emotions come in 2 from DR and 3 from Dal and you can only get one Timeworn from DR
unreal wadi
yes
stark abyss
Like if you run DR a lot you're going to outpace the timeworn with the raw emotions
unreal wadi
you're not the only one, no
balmy mesa
I was expecting the last step to be the bottleneck, not the timeworn step
stark abyss
You're going to end up sitting on extra raw emotions, literally
where you cant even spend them because you haven't advanced a weapon far enough due to the lack of Timeworns, its dumb
stark abyss
It isn't in the short term, but what happens when you are trying to do every weapon?
You'll end up throwing raw emotions on the ground at the end and that feels hella bad
balmy mesa
some could say that it's intentional
stockpile to 255, then just turn it in
then you can blast through the rest of the relics
stark abyss
And it actually kind of invalidates the emotion grind alltogether. If you HAVE to do DR for Timeworn (PotD not withstanding) and you get 2 emotion and only 1 timeworn the emotion grind literally doesn't exist if that makes sense
It just feels very bizzare you don't get at least 2 Timeworn from DR to match the Emotions
balmy mesa
I wonder why DRS doesn't drop timeworn as well
stark abyss
Yup, and they could have, although didn't necessarily have to, added it to something in Zadnor like CEs, even on a small chance

If you are bottlenecked by timeworn while you're working on Raw Emotions, if you do DR for the timeworn, you will hae the Raw Emotions for your current relic AND the one you were doing Timeworn for.
plucky musk
What’s the best actions for summoner? I’m using noble ends with chainspell and sometimes font of magic and for essence I use ordained or skirmisher is there any better than that? For normal raids
stark abyss
If you are bottlenecked by timeworn while you're working on Raw Emotions, if you...
That would be great if it was a 1 to 1 ratio, but when you get double Raw Emotions its just sucky to have to end up throwing some away
on top of getting a lot out of Delriada
It works for people who already did a lot of Timworn grinding
distant sonnet
That middle step felt especially awful.
maiden lodge
That would be great if it was a 1 to 1 ratio, but when you get double Raw Emotio...
Actually it's good.
You have one at Raw Emotions and one at DR step.
You do 15 DRs.
You know have 30 raw emotions, and 15 Timeworn.
You now have two complete relics.
stark abyss
No, you only have 1 because now you have to do 15 MORE DR to get another weapon even able to use the emotions
maiden lodge
No, you only have 1 because now you have to do 15 MORE DR to get another weapon ...
So you do a total of 30 DR.
distant sonnet
Well.. no. You had to have a weapon past the DR step to start the emotions.
stark abyss
Right you do 30 DR for 2 weapons, but you have 60 raw emotions, 30 of which are paperweights
distant sonnet
So getting 30 emotions plus 15 timeworn completes the first weapon and a second.
Past that you're kinda boned.. but.
Good time to get a couple glass pumpkins?
stark abyss
Right, short term its fine, but when you get to the point that you don't need any more raw emotions it just doesn't feel good
maiden lodge
Well.. no. You had to have a weapon past the DR step to start the emotions.
Step 1: Get 15 DR, get to emotion step.
Step 2: Do 15 more DR on a different relic. Now you have two complete relics.
Alternative:
Step 1: Do 15 DR, get to emotion step.
Step 2: Do something else for Emotions
Step 3: Do 15 DR, get another thing to emotion step.
Step 4: Do something else for emotions.
30 DR < 30 DR + 2x emotions
stark abyss
If you want to get every weapon you need 255 of each item total. If you run 255 DR you get 255 Timeworn and 510 Raw emotions so you're just throwing away the raw emotions at that point
grave raft
in the long run, you're just throwing away excess emotions
distant sonnet
Or what Im planning to do is just.. build up emotions from doin new castrum and ignore DR grinds until thr inevitable nerf next patch.
stark abyss
assuming you started after 5.55
maiden lodge
If you want to get every weapon you need 255 of each item total. If you run 255 ...
No no no
Step 1: Do 15 DR get something to emotion step.
Step 2: Do 15 DR on a different weapon, now you have 30 emotions, use them.
Step 3: Do 15 DR get something to emotion step
Step 4: do 15 DR on a different weapon, use 30 emotions.
distant sonnet
Imo they should just add Timeworn for like 150 poetics, at this point
maiden lodge
Literally that's the optimal path. The way it is now, you can actually work it that the Timeworn step is the only step you need to do
stark abyss
If you stagger your quests correctly you will ALWAYS be earning both items from DR

If you stagger your quests correctly you will ALWAYS be earning both items from ...

Is chainspell an iconic spell from previous FF's?
maiden lodge
Is chainspell an iconic spell from previous FF's?
It's the iconic RDM trick.
It was the capstone ability for RDM introduced in FF5 (sometimes called Dualcast or MagicX2), with Chainspell's implementation remaniscent of the FF11 version of it, RDM's signature 2-hour cooldown
dawn basin
So I said to spare Misija's life
And she fucking dies anyway!!?

maiden lodge
As well, in the Lore, Chainspell is the name of the techniques RDM uses to use one spell to speed another.
dawn basin
Dualcast is called Chainspell?
maiden lodge
Dualcast is called Chainspell?
Dualcast and Chainspell have been used for the same ability.
Chainspell is the lore name for how a RDM gets off so many instant spells in general. So it's already a RDM thing in the lore.
gaunt star
So in Zadnor if you're a RDM it's Dualercast
maiden lodge
I do need to grind some out and then go ham with Watchers. is it optimal? I dunno. Is it halarious? Absolutely.

Breaking damage has always been the best thing to do in stuff like this looks at that video of the WAR who did 56 million damage in Eureka
maiden lodge
it watchers better than the pure essence tho?
In general, no, but 100% uptime on Chaincast is tempting
also who cares it's fun
gloomy shale
has anyone run the numbers?
maiden lodge
Well you're comparing to Elders
gaunt star
My raid dps might be shit, but my bozja dps is fire
gloomy shale
err yeah i meant elders woops forgot the name
maiden lodge
Elders is 50%, not counting Cure IV Bravery, and Watchers+Chaincast is 45% but never using your bad spells and also being a ranged physical-level of mobility.
brisk quail
I still think ranged BLM is the most fun
gloomy shale
so elders is probably better but less fun
maiden lodge
so elders is probably better but less fun
Depends if you need the defensive benefits. 1.45x(never jolting) is more than just 50%
gloomy shale
true
brisk quail
You underestimate how much a dps gain just chaincasting ver aero/thunder is
maiden lodge
You'd want one caster with Elder though, for Cure IV

Solo Chain is king.
In group, elder has a strong case.
And even in a group. You don't really need that many elder bravery
maiden lodge
Solo Chain is king.
In group, elder has a strong case.
Elder IF you pair with Cure IV. If you're in that situation, Eldercure is just toooooo good.
But yeah, if someone else is on that duty (the summoner, cause the summoner gains nothing dpswise from Chain except the bonus damage)
gloomy shale
what do you bring with chain then?
maiden lodge
Probably something like Noble Ends

The fact that a bunch of mobs are from eureka/ivalice is kinda funny

the IVth legion stole a bunch of auracite
gaunt star
Fair

Gosh, i wonder if we'll meet Mikoto in Sharlayan
Marsak mentioned that everyone went home
Cid also got clarity on what actually happened at the Bozja Citadel
distant sonnet
We did just.. straight up leave those auracite laying around after we killed the bosses in Ivalice raids

Probably not in MSQ, but she'll probably be there for whatever Matsuno has planned for 6.0
distant sonnet
God we're dumb as hell.
gaunt star
Make Mikoto a scion or we throw riots
distant sonnet
Mikoto is boring as hell, change my mind.
distant sonnet
And also kinda dumb.
unreal wadi
Bozja was also locked behind the "Return to Ivalice" alliance raids
gaunt star
Mikoto is boring as hell, change my mind.
Yeah but she precious so

And also kinda dumb.

Just turn her into a simp. EZ money.

ppl said the same about G'raha
G'raha didn't forget how exactly his own powers work and march to his own death.
forest magnet
G'raha didn't forget how exactly his own powers work and march to his own death.
i mean he did march to his own death several times
unreal wadi
Well, technically she's back at Doma
forest magnet
And Mikoto knows how her powers work it's pointless to resist a vision when it comes true anyways.
obsidian pagoda
Hien already lost Gosetsu, he ain't releasing Yugiri from employment any time soon
distant sonnet
i mean he did march to his own death several times
Yes but not through forgetting how his power works and just going "well guess I'll die."
Yeah but her vision doesn't show what happens after she fell a bit. Obviously. Cause thats the gimmick that gets abused to save her.
forest magnet
Even though she let a war criminal escape twice
distant sonnet
Hey don't tell anyone I'm gonna fall so no one can save me with the numerous flying things we have. Kay cool thanks
somber storm
Plus you know, Yugiri still working on making Hien and Cirina a thing
obsidian pagoda
As long as they don't try and push for Mikoto/Cid, I'm ok I guess

Per Honor, the %?
Therefore after all 10 Honor = 50% HP, 50% Damage and 100% He...
It is per buff.
(3 resistance honors for 20M mettle)
The honors needed goes up by 1 for every 2 honors recieved. So honor 9 and 10 takes 5 Resistance honors.
You need 200.000.000 mettle total to get one to 10. (600.000.000 mettle to max all 3 out.)
signal vault
that ain't no comic. I can feel it

Cid was last shown getting drunk off by himself and reminiscing about dear ol dad. And then in the morning they were just gone.

distant sonnet
I dunno. Think it'll happen eventually, but not until whatever 6.1s is (totally Dalmasca.)
wet crown
funny, cuz I was sure we'd go there instead of Zadnor
unreal wadi
It has to be Dalmasca
gaunt star
But it was nice that a character actually had romantic feelings towards someone else

When can we meet Princess Ashe

unreal wadi
distant sonnet
Yeah but Fran basically looked directly at the camera and said "I will look forward to seeing you in Dalmasca in patch 6.1 of acclaimed mmorpg Final fant.."
unreal wadi
yes
pine epoch
This is my belief, the next matsuno questline. While it will probably take place in Dalmasca. Will probably be more about investigating some ancient thing. That will lead us into the finale with Lyon and Noah with their remnant forces.
We will still get a zone or 2, BA3 Maybe a trial.
wet crown
what other Allagan monster garbage could they throw at us at this point how much stronger than Ultima Weapon can it be?
pine epoch
Something Something, Noah wants the Holy Grail to cheat death.

I liked Lyon. The thing he had going on with generic garlean elf was delightful.
unreal wadi
Reminder that there are weapons like Ultima & Diablo in Zadnor
still buried underneath the rock

You know what I expect the plot hook to be for Ivalice 3?
Serpentarius Auracite

i hope they just don't expand too much
and the story of everything each just go in its own direction and no end
wet crown
hm?
signal vault
like bozjan story expand into 2 nations, then 2 nations story involve 4 regions, and so on
infinite expanding story with no end
distant sonnet
I kinda like it. Not everything in the world needs to be ascians
wet crown
it's more like we had Ivalice, which then affected Bozja and will probably lead back to Dalmasca again
signal vault
it's good but it shouldn't expand too broad into everything
unreal wadi
Its to learn about the other legions
pine epoch
RTI and STQ are connected. their like seasons. RTI is season 1, STQ is season 2.
unreal wadi
theres still garlean legions out there
wet crown
as long as they do their own thing with the elements, I'm fine with anything
I just don't want everything to be a FF repeat
in that sense, I think Eden was fantastic

effectively Southern Othard and A part of Ilsabard is Matsuno land.

Matsuno has that entire land to himself

i like all 8-man raid story, but Bahamut was the best
wet crown
like right now I hope EW won't just be FF4 with FF10 backdrops
pine epoch
I am hoping Anima, while it may look like FF10 Anima. I want it to be as Original as possible
and not just be copy paste. Oh this is Blanks mother now a monster.
wet crown
Brave Exvius did Anima well
somber storm
Anima be the only trial art that we saw
wet crown
She was a very benevolent esper until she became grossly corrupted by the war

I am hoping when Koji said anima "him" it wasn't a slip of the tongue.
