I do agree math is easier

real onyx
#

all of you got me and own me bruh

#

yall got it

hybrid gazelle
#

what?

slim belfry
#

lore you have a lot to consider that's not always formulaic

hybrid gazelle
#

story writing can be hard because you gotta keep up with the time of the writing too

main dust
#

I think you just need to be someone that cares about writing and understanding the world around it without needing it told to your face - Writing shouldn't have to tell you everything on the planet.
You need to care about it in it's whole - that's not to say I have an issue with you at all but if you want to understand you need to be someone who is willing to dig down.

Understanding a world is difficult but it's worthwhile, I really think when you become someone who cares a lot about writing you learn to really love the ideas people make up - it's really worth it.
I'd love to see how you feel later down the line when you get through more quests.

hasty spoke
#

the new lore has been much better

main dust
#

I appreciate you coming to the channel, some people wouldn't - it's good to see people willing to ask questions on things they don't understand.

#

You'll get better, everyone does.

real onyx

#

Maybe teach me maths sometime, I suck ass.

real onyx
#

need to think in an orthogonal way

hybrid gazelle
#

there also like

real onyx
#

too hard

hybrid gazelle
#

a ton of soverigns before 1000 AP

#

Rieke, Giteph, Xima, and more

#

i keep forgetting that one owl dude

#

Ornstel?

#

he was a owl member

real onyx
#

owl mf was annoying af

hybrid gazelle
#

I am not talking about Rurie

main dust
#

You probably haven't seen the portraits of them yet.

real onyx
#

no the owl sovereign whatever fog forest soverieng

hasty spoke
hybrid gazelle
#

that not rurie

#

rurie is not a soverign

#

he is captain of the canopy LOL

#

he just part of an owl clan

#

but I am talking about the soverign who was the leadero f old owl clan

#

before the canopy being formed

real onyx
#

idk too 4d for tiny brain like mine

#

i understand what i see

#

no imagination

#

idk how yall spawning in characters from the same text i read but yall beyond me

hybrid gazelle
#

YEAH

#

Caetal

split night
hybrid gazelle
#

that mention these characters like secrect discovery

real onyx
hybrid gazelle
#

you can just play the game

#

the sotry literally like

real onyx
#

if i wanted to read i'd make my gf mad rq

split night
hybrid gazelle
#

does not prevent you from enjoying the game

real onyx
#

ye thats true

#

but tehre's levels apparently

#

ye yall got it

split night
#

just play the game and ignore the story if it isn't your cup of tea

#

they really need to add skipping cutscene to fruma quests

real onyx
#

it is I want to understand a lil

split night
real onyx
#

but ig for pea brain its too much

main dust
#

@split night I'd just say it straight, if you're going to be mean you gotta dedicate to it - That's not me dissing it because I agree with you (seriously, I do) but I'd rather someone who is straight than someone who half-dedicates to being mean - being real.

Same with me though @real onyx , I'm only recently someone who can type like this - come here more often if you think you'd be happier knowing more and understanding more, there are people that genuienly want to help and bring you up to the news of stuff.
I'm happy to write but I will be someone that writes tons

I think everyone should become more informed because all it takes it learning and understanding to find out just how much you didn't know you did enjoy but never had the chance or people around you that could teach you to understand.

#

Auree is right though, Wynn is entirely fun without reading - it's a game too.

#

And while I want people to love it as a whole I'm still someone who didn't care about the Wynn/Gavel/Realm Wars stuff at all - Fruma is exclusively my passion.

hybrid gazelle
#

I hate how my hyperfixation on wynncraft

split night
#

I just like wynncraft because of its story ( and how i can manipulate it to make a new one ), gameplay is more of a flavour on the cake for me

hybrid gazelle
#

uck wrong pic

real onyx
#

ts lore shi too hard for me imma need some high iq specimens to fill me in

slim belfry
#

wynn lore is like crack to me

hybrid gazelle
#

Meant to post this

slim belfry
#

I can't get enough of it

real onyx
#

read through on 2 classes and still don't understand shi apparently

split night
hybrid gazelle
#

then IDK man

split night
#

xd

slim belfry
#

I had 3 dreams about wynncraft

real onyx
slim belfry
#

during the past month

split night
#

they just kinda fix that incoherent-ness wit the introduction of fruma

real onyx
#

too hard

split night
tepid blade
hybrid gazelle
#

missing pieces is actually renowned as one of the most saddest quest in wynncraft and favorite quest of many

split night
#

force feeding fantasy story to a random bystander belike:

hybrid gazelle
#

which is cool

#

because it was fucking horrible in beta

#

but I happy how far it come

tepid blade
hybrid gazelle
#

the timeline is fucked up

split night
#

im glad i didn't play beta

hybrid gazelle
#

we dont know what een happen so it fee llike

real onyx
hybrid gazelle
#

Syndra undercover as rooguhwork worker to arrest Elise

real onyx
#

it was funny idk why

hybrid gazelle
#

even tho taht we know Elise is her lover

#

so that owuld not make sense

#

so like IDK

#

it mumbo jumbo, it does not matter now

real onyx
#

why was elise getting arrested in first place

hybrid gazelle
#

but just know it literally was such a mess inbeta

#

because it was test of Syndra's loyalty

split night
#

to test her loyalty

tepid blade
hybrid gazelle
#

the crown want Syndra to arrest Elise to prove that she loyal to the crown

real onyx
#

ig i missed that

tepid blade
hybrid gazelle
#

Echo of Change

real onyx
#

was this in EoC or missing piece

hybrid gazelle
#

you ened to do both quest to understand the full story

real onyx
#

i swear I read everything and did not see any mention of this in missing piece

hybrid gazelle
#

from both Elise side and Syndra side

main dust
#

Elise is getting arrested just because Syndra was involved in all the drama with her job - It's not that Elise did anything wrong it's that Syndra had a choice: Kill your lover as proof of the fact you'll serve my nation or be a criminal - Syndra chose wrong.

I think the best way to help is to get evidence and support of the dialogue boxes - word of mouth is great but I think we need someone with it direct, either content team or just a screenshot hoarder.

split night
#

play the game in content progress will make the story most coherent for you really

tepid blade
real onyx
#

maybe if I get some time this summer

split night
real onyx
#

i might do it again on rw mage

main dust
#

Hmu if you do it, I'm willing to answer shit while you play

real onyx
#

yeah prolly will do, thanks for offer!

#

all this stuff is beyond my head

#

if I don't understand something I usually discard

#

bad habit

split night
real onyx
main dust
#

Nah they're being straight - they just need someone who understands to help them get the picture themselves more often.

real onyx
#

i will never understand on my own prolly. Just not gifted in literature. got farmed b's and c's in hs

main dust
#

It's like, the shit I went through too.

hybrid gazelle
real onyx
#

in ez literature classes

hybrid gazelle
#

trying to figure out how golems would be like

limber swan
#

how old are the leaves?

hybrid gazelle
#

I really like the idea of them having supplies strapped to them

split night
limber swan
#

like what age are they

split night
hybrid gazelle
#

but war golem is really big

#

since they are like a tank

limber swan
split night
slim belfry
#

they're all young adults though

#

mora and syndra being much older though

split night
#

neat then

hybrid gazelle
#

outdated deisgn

#

but this is how big paladin is

slim belfry
#

I think the children part is because of the queen calling everyone children

split night
split night
hybrid gazelle
#

also the leaves are young adult yeah

#

like the younger members

#

no children here

slim belfry
#

true the children are not allowed outside their houses

#

why do you think you rarely see any

split night
#

the dad of one of them really hate zhiroak for some reason

slim belfry
#

wait yeah I noticed the youngest people you meet are like the leaves, soosu, and university students

#

coincidence?

main dust
# real onyx i will never understand on my own prolly. Just not gifted in literature. got far...

Though this is a thing I care about replying to.
Anyone has the ability to learn, it's harder for people that get the B's and shit but all that means is that you've got a few more steps to go up to get to the top - those extra steps makes you stronger at the end of it, I believe.

Someone who has to work to understand like you might will understand more than the people that were there from the get-go, it's a skill to be proud of - you can learn, it's about the right people being around you and the right things you watch and read to learn from.

slim belfry
#

high school letter grades...

#

those dont actually matter anyway

main dust
#

I'm Australian so the American grades mean nothing to me - it's just an educational bias made to make people feel stupid when they're not.

real onyx
#

it does when im only one getting b's

#

my teachers did hate me though

main dust
#

Then your teacher didn't care about helping you learn.

#

Yeah.

split night
#

i kinda wish Aelumia have its own Choral Chamber really, kinda sad that Hyloch is the Choral Chamber of Fruma xd

real onyx
#

idc about my grades but i def was not talented in literatures, history, english etc

main dust
#

Teacher's need to see people like you struggling and help you grow, you shouldn't end up worse-off or with no improvements, right?

real onyx
#

why I am 10x better in college

#

nah it's not like u could help my high school self

#

some things u can't help

slim belfry
main dust
#

Well fr I don't know you or your life and you're absolutely right.

real onyx
#

i didn't want to learn and observe so its on me

split night
hybrid gazelle
#

looking back at old paladin desing

real onyx
#

i try to pick up some bits and pieces but all this is beyond me

hybrid gazelle
#

I feel like I kinda predicting flower in somway LOL

split night
real onyx
#

ig i'll never think like a "normal" person, but it's not in bad way

slim belfry
#

I like how the battle monk archetype is the only seemingly normal warrior

real onyx
#

i just have to learn and pick up what I can

split night
hybrid gazelle
#

you have to draw segment

#

to make his body more robotic

#

also play with propotion

slim belfry
#

segments and more like rocks?

split night
main dust
#

Fuck off with that shit, I'm autistic as shit with the attention span of a peanut and need weed to understand writing - my husband taught me how to read, he writes essays and watches four hour French films - he's proof to me that it's about who you with making you change for the better.

'Normal' means nothing because people that care, and I mean care about things like this aren't treated like they're normal, they're ridiculed for caring too much about 'silly' things.

#

You're going to become better than that.

hybrid gazelle
#

I exggerated the golems propotion to be more wider and bulkier

#

and their head VERY VERY flat

main dust
#

You already are better than that by a significant margin

hybrid gazelle
#

play around with anatomy

split night
real onyx
#

not in bad way

hybrid gazelle
#

do not always go for corrected one

real onyx
#

just not as talented as others in certain aspects

#

but way more talented than average at others

hybrid gazelle
#

bigger arm, smaller legs

split night
hybrid gazelle
#

no

#

dungeon meshi

real onyx
#

reading comprehension is just one of those things I'm not good at. like teaching a monkey how to fly

split night
#

oh neat

hybrid gazelle
#

dungeon meshi is actually pretty good if you want some inspiration

#

it's good anime

#

or manga if you can find it

split night
#

yeah i know about it

real onyx
#

never bothered me

split night
#

im just really slacking off watching it for the longest time

real onyx
hybrid gazelle
#

the writers/artist actually is a good inspiration for artists because of her design focus on character facial feature

#

allowing them to stand out despite in different cloothing

#

which make her deisgn more realistic because obviously people gonna wear different cloth like irl

real onyx
split night
real onyx
#

doesn't hurt to be realistic

hybrid gazelle
split night
#

I feel like you gonna

hybrid gazelle
#

not really

real onyx
hybrid gazelle
#

fruma character already have unique facial feature in their protrait

real onyx
#

everyone is extremely talented in their own ways

split night
hybrid gazelle
#

the aritsts that work on the protrait is very skilled in making everyone have different facial feature despite the limitation

real onyx
#

just have to find the right ones

hybrid gazelle
#

it pretyt impressive

#

knowing the size of grid they use for each protrait

split night
hybrid gazelle
#

this also used to convey story

#

because in game you can actually see Jiro being a changeling

#

if you compare his protrait from pre EoC to EoC

split night
regal spire
hybrid gazelle
#

or how each protrait of Gikyo's disguise is off pixel

regal spire
#

I tried looking at the differences and didn’t see any

hybrid gazelle
tepid blade
hybrid gazelle
#

Rurie Gikyo you can see their smile actually like

#

go all thew ay too high

#

it very like

#

it very sloppy

regal spire
hybrid gazelle
#

we dont know

#

but seeing he is noe the one who escape the prison

#

yeah

#

he either dead

#

or somehow alive somewhere

regal spire
#

Or they forgot about him 😭

hybrid gazelle
#

I dont htink the brothers would forget about Jiro

split night
hybrid gazelle
#

consider how important he is to the Steel Feather

regal spire
split night
hybrid gazelle
#

so yeah Jiro likely actually just dead

#

which is scary

summer bluff
regal spire
hybrid gazelle
#

let me show you

summer bluff
hybrid gazelle
split night
hybrid gazelle
#

look at this changelong

regal spire
#

I actually think changelings might have a more sinister method for getting their forms

hybrid gazelle
#

"Fixed a few erroneous Jiro portraits."

#

that them adding Changeling Jiro

summer bluff
#

.. oh i thought you had pics

slim belfry
#

oh yeah I saw the difference in Jiro lol

regal spire
#

Because, so far, every scenario we’ve seen of a changeling taking a form involves them killing them

hybrid gazelle
#

uhh

#

let me find

regal spire
#

For people*

#

Other than Gik, ofc, who only killed 1/3

#

Actually, wait, no, 1/6

#

Or was it 7

slim belfry
#

and the general's orders changeling

#

that was funny

regal spire
#

Yeah, this theory is without any foundation

#

But, it’s not unlikely with Burning Bonds and Jiro having enough context clues to imply a changeling took their form, and then killed them after

hybrid gazelle
#

here

regal spire
#

Oh, dang

hybrid gazelle
#

@summer bluff

regal spire
#

It’s subtle, I would’ve never noticed, even knowing

slim belfry
#

yeah I was like
what the's dif
OH

regal spire
#

He got a nice haircut

#

Or just used some pomade

split night
#

his eyes

#

his eyes lost its light

regal spire
hybrid gazelle
#

the yellow eyes is him being changeling btw

split night
slim belfry
#

I bet one person out there noticed immediately that something happened to their Jiro

regal spire
#

I’m gonna be honest, my phone is, like, 80% greyed rn. Saturation is nada

#

I cannot see a difference in the eyes saltroll

hybrid gazelle
hybrid gazelle
#

she said how Jiro acting out of character

tepid blade
# hybrid gazelle

I also notice that the changing is standing up taller than the real Jiro, which is good character depiction, the real Jiro is more defensive in posture, while the changeling Jiro is like standing attention, like a soldier would to a commanding officer

slim belfry
summer bluff
regal spire
#

How many Frumans actually know about changelings

#

Seems even the people of Aldwell have some skeptics in there

hybrid gazelle
#

not many

split night
hybrid gazelle
#

only Aldwell people know

#

not even the leaves know of it

regal spire
#

Not even, some of them think they don’t exist

tepid blade
split night
regal spire
#

Aldwell citizens*

main dust
#

Changeling's are exclusively a Mistwood's secret as of current knowledge - Publically Mistwoods isn't supposed to have citizens.

hybrid gazelle
#

the changeling that complete their trainning are very skilled

#

so that mean

#

anyone you meeet in Fruma could ba changeling

regal spire
hybrid gazelle
#

that how good they are

regal spire
#

They’re not all skeptics ofc

slim belfry
#

what if

#

I'm a changeling

regal spire
#

Are you perhaps Giky?

#

Ik a dude who wants to talk to ya

split night
hybrid gazelle
#

if you think about it

#

it highly likely taht whoever Gikyo and Azeal take the form from

regal spire
hybrid gazelle
#

their current sprite likely deformed version of their original

split night
slim belfry
hybrid gazelle
#

so what I am saying is

regal spire
hybrid gazelle
#

Azeal likely did not meant to have that creepy smile

regal spire
#

😀

split night
regal spire
#

“See, Kris? I’m smiling!”

split night
slim belfry
#

gosh I love Azael smile

#

it's so funny

regal spire
tepid blade
slim belfry
#

only evil people chose that

split night
hybrid gazelle
#

Changeling probably one of the beset spieces wynncraft added

#

they are not even full on sapient

#

well they have capability to be sapient

tepid blade
hybrid gazelle
#

but yeah

regal spire
split night
regal spire
#

I could never 😭

hybrid gazelle

THEY LITERALLY

Gikyo have less screentime than Azael 😭
I lvoe Azael though, no complains

regal spire
#

Not even cool colonizers

split night
slim belfry
regal spire
#

This is very important

split night
tepid blade
#

What I have always wondered is who does Gikyo get their form from?

slim belfry
#

yeah villagers having a term for non-villagers is CRAZY LOL

summer bluff
#

Inject the changelings directly in my veins and then watch me die bc tar was injected into my veins

regal spire
split night
regal spire
#

Grian approved ngl

#

Salted, Jumla, Grian all coming up with the single greatest lore-accurate slur

#

Also, why tf don’t the villagers call elves “big ears”

#

We’re small noses, but dwarves are dwarves, and elves are elves

summer bluff
#

Knife eared buggers

tepid blade
#

Something I find funny about the villagers religion is that they are the only race in the universe to my knowledge to have a belief in hell

regal spire
split night
hybrid gazelle
#

can we have Gikyo holding Croquin like a baby

#

fat fuckign frog

summer bluff
summer bluff
#

I might draw that

regal spire
summer bluff
#

But like

split night
summer bluff
#

maybe bc I've been drawing so much other stuff

regal spire
hybrid gazelle
#

I wonder if Gikyo actually feel sad for every changeling that failed their trainning in mistwood

slim belfry
regal spire
#

Cannot wait for villagers to be gone gone gone

tepid blade
#

and do it for fun no less

hybrid gazelle
#

they do have capaicty of empathy

slim belfry
#

they probably did at one point

hybrid gazelle
#

their entire motive is started by Ophriel's immolation

#

it certainly imply that their violence tendency likely just a justification on what people of Aldwell done to Changelings

regal spire
#

Gikyo hasn’t really ever had the capacity for true empathy. They’re sympathetic at best, but they’ve always been sociopathic

hybrid gazelle
#

consider how they build fort hegea on top of the immolation site that once burn Orphiel

summer bluff
tepid blade
split night

hybrid gazelle

#

I also headcanon that they're at least a bit afraid of fire now

hybrid gazelle
#

I hope we got more Gikyo lore from Azeal

split night
#

i mean i would be afraid of fire if it can burn me too

summer bluff
regal spire
hybrid gazelle
#

the album art depedict gikyo looking at the flame

#

they still cling onto that past

summer bluff
hybrid gazelle
#

so it likely they still motivated to justify all the changeling killing

summer bluff
#

..oh

hybrid gazelle
#

but oyu can look at protrait art

#

they actually do hae meaning in mind

summer bluff
#

Ik they do... I just like words......

hybrid gazelle
#

Zhiraok album art depict his struggle with burden of expectation

#

honestly IDK how to read sosu art

summer bluff
#

Everyone says that they're a sociopath but the only person that we have that word from in-game is majin

summer bluff
regal spire
summer bluff
regal spire
#

And they also used a pokey electric claw on someone

hybrid gazelle
#

Gikyo definitely have more depth to them than being violent funny killer

#

they definitely have capacity to feel empathy or at least not motive by sadistic pleasure

regal spire
#

Idk about you, but the only people ik who were comfortable enough to use what is essentially a very sharp, serrated taser on people have been complete monsters

summer bluff
regal spire
#

Or, idk, a water balloon

We all want an evil-alignment character
one who is just pure evil for no reason huh? 😔

I’m not sure at all, because we don’t actually have enough info to tell us how their cultures may have interacted. But, I’d like to think the Olm and Fruman’s had both coexisted, and fought for more land. They’ve seem to have some common ground and partnership, though, with the architect shrine implying this, and I think this can reasonably lead to linguistics similarities, and maybe even a merge and creation of modern wynnic as we know it

split night
#

real question
is english a real language in universe or is it gameplay mechanic

regal spire
#

Gameplay, yeah. Just imagine that it sounds like that

split night
#

they just babling in a central language and the game translate it for us

#

new head canon

regal spire
#

Correct, actually

#

Actually, given Gavellian being Gaelic, and The Eye speaking “eyerish”, it’s very possible that a lot of Wynn peeps have Irish accents, or that Wynnic is—quite literally—structured as English

Ok canonically how do u think the sovereigns would react to that one gif of the queen confessing (not mine) lemme try to find it

#

That one

split night
#

but yes sovereigns would react like that

hybrid gazelle
#

Two already know

#

Majin likely too full of himself to care consider how he do not react at all in Two explination

#

actually i think most of older soverigns know about what the queen is

rough flower
#

Probably

#

I mean you would have to assume so right

frozen turtle
#

pretty sure just once u become a sovereign u probably learn

#

i'd assume Tasim knows as well

regal spire
#

I thought that all the sovereigns knew what she was

#

Tasim doesn’t seem all that surprised by what she is, so I’d assume Zhiraok and Soosu would know, too

Oh, crap, I just realized something:

Our character, very rarely, goes out to search for perspectives. We actively take on the role of the supporter, if the person who’s offering the quest does their best to be—or deceive us into being—an ally (or a protagonist). Because of this, we are incredibly influential to a narrative, and will basically entirely flip on a whim, if offered a convincing enough chance.
Anyway: What if Orphion knows this?
What if Orphion knows that we are this malleable? What if it knows what exactly we are, and, if it behaves as if it is an objective benefit to a narrative, we have literally no choice but to support it. Maybe that’s what AHC is, too? Saph’s weird attempt at turning the narrative, and grabbing hold of our power?

How did the fishers in fruma get high enough level to fish sturgeon and mahseer

#

There’s no gudgeon in fruma

#

They can’t even start leveling

#

This is an IMPORTANT piece of lore that must be answered

wise thorn
regal spire
#

It explains why we don’t have a choice to join Ana, too, because she isn’t aware of this attribute of ours, and is so antithesis to the very nature of her existence, she has no choice to be an antagonist/villain

cedar kernel
#

So we’re special in that we have to level up our professions

#

The player is special in that they will eat fucking anything

#

Eat or drink

regal spire
#

Grains and fish + 6 globs of sewage

wise thorn
cedar kernel
#

Literally

#

Something has to be special about the player

regal spire
#

“Fucking incredible”

cedar kernel
#

Worse: it’s somewhat alive sewage

This some Hermes Conrad type inspection

Straight up murder?

Or, weaken their party

Oh the cinfras royals

hybrid gazelle

Hashr barely count

#

his kingdom alrady long gone

#

and he is titled as usurper for a reason

#

he likely no longer a prince

cedar kernel
#

Idk about any orcs and such because that’s a case of war rather than politics

hybrid gazelle
#

war is political

#

so tyes

#

that count

regal spire
#

I’m debating if Takan counts

cedar kernel
#

So every single orcish and similar species commander you kill

hybrid gazelle
#

Takan count yes

#

you literally being hired

#

to kill Takan by admiral

#

so yes

#

that the most poltiical assassination you could get

#

it's assassination done to not only save face of Almuj army

#

but also to prevent bandit from gainning power

#

and also to stop Takan from kick start his rebellion against the admiral

#

so yes

regal spire
#

Yeah, nvm, had a different definition I was going off of, when defining it

hybrid gazelle
#

it's political

regal spire
#

Forgot that there was alot of cover up going on in that quest, and that he wasn’t just a defect admiral

hybrid gazelle
#

he is a commander

#

he just a part of nemract army

#

well

#

he WAS

regal spire
#

Right, commander

#

Ex-commander

cedar kernel
#

Killing mayor of olux as directed by Orphion

regal spire
#

Maybe if he was an admiral, he wouldn’t have defected

hybrid gazelle
#

you did not kill mayor of Olux

#

that just a vision thing

#

it fabricated by Orphion

cedar kernel
#

It’s a depiction

hybrid gazelle
#

mayor did not actually die

cedar kernel
#

They said depiction

hybrid gazelle
#

then yes

regal spire
#

I did say depiction, yes saltroll

#

What are we at, now? 6? 7?

#

Yeah, 6

hybrid gazelle
#

war of the rose

cedar kernel
#

Hmmmm did the elves ever do one

#

No

#

They just were idiots

hybrid gazelle
#

elder prometheus

#

but like

#

he die of old age

regal spire
#

They did more of an act of terrorism

cedar kernel
#

Killing guardian of the forest didn’t count

hybrid gazelle
#

so maybe not

regal spire
#

Accidentally, ofc

cedar kernel
#

There’s all the commanders you can kill in fruma maybe that counts?

regal spire
#

We slimed a ton of commanders (to the complete and utter dismay, and subsequent ambivalence (funny necklacesaltroll) of the dwarven king) in DnD

cedar kernel
#

Idk but it’s not political

#

That’s just a case of self defense

#

At least the first one

regal spire
#

It’s less of a political related assassination and more of general acts of terrorism

cedar kernel
#

The rest of them eh

#

Yeah

#

All the sovereign deaths are acts of terrorism/self defense

regal spire
#

And, depending on the class, war crimes

cedar kernel
#

What archetype does the most warcrime

regal spire
#

Trickster, bro

cedar kernel
#

Trueee

regal spire
#

Mustard gas fr

cedar kernel
#

Mustard gas and false impersonation

regal spire
#

Fr

cedar kernel
#

There’s no laws on using cosmic rifts to render your enemies asunder so rift is fine

regal spire
#

Rift might actually be considered a war crime, if I read up the Geneva conventions rq

#

Lightbender is also technically against it, since you burn people alive slowly

cedar kernel
#

How does ophanim technically deal damage anyways

#

It’s like water

#

Isn’t it just magic

#

Like pure magic damage

regal spire
#

I think it’s like compact balls of wiggly flashbangs

cedar kernel
#

Light magic?

regal spire
#

The federal building in my city started flash banging protestors 😭

#

The officers shot a window and used that as justification to start attacking people

cedar kernel
#

Can depiction be written in text or does it have to be actually seen

regal spire
#

It’s technically depicted from a secondary source (if it’s not a biography)

wise thorn
regal spire
slim belfry
#

me when literal trapper ult is less of a war crime than other stuff

cedar kernel
#

Lmfao

#

Ravens carpet bombing shit

wise thorn
cedar kernel
#

Would bolt be considered a warcrime

#

Just insane impaling

regal spire
#

Carpet bombing is okay, though. Especially when it’s used on the Balkans

cedar kernel
#

Could you even constitute fallen as a crime

#

Like

#

You could plead that you were overtaken by forces of corruption or smth

regal spire
#

May a collective 300 mothers and infants rest in peace, after the bombing of a maternity hospital in Beograd

cedar kernel
#

How tf does corrupted fighting anathema even work

#

It doesn’t make sense

regal spire
cedar kernel
#

Fallen

regal spire
cedar kernel
#

Huh

wise thorn
cedar kernel
#

I need to finish all content sometime

#

I have almost all the prof levels for it

slim belfry
cedar kernel
#

Just need to actually do all the world events, boss altars, and secret discoveries

slim belfry
#

that's why anathema doesn't like them either

#

corruptor of worlds taking out bak'al's forces

#

everything of corruption is prone to purely messing with anything

cedar kernel
#

I forget what corrupter of worlds was

regal spire
#

It’s very existence is basically made to hate itself, so I understand why it’s like that

cedar kernel
#

And how you fight them

regal spire
wise thorn
regal spire
#

Anyway, they’re a skeleton with a random ass dragon head made by a 13 year old

wise thorn
#

Used to be the strongest boss back in like 2015

slim belfry
#

I do find it funny to fight anathema as fallen

regal spire
#

And they’re holding a MC skeleton skull

wise thorn
#

How the fuck did Rymek Luke get an update but people like Bob and CoW didn't

cedar kernel
#

What’s the lore of half moon island and the lunatics

#

Is there any

regal spire
cedar kernel
#

Does the island just exist

#

Cosmic nmmmm

regal spire
#

Think a meteor or something fell on the island

cedar kernel
#

Skeins island is pretty much just a jail right

#

Like a really big jail

regal spire
#

Correct

#

It’s a fort jail

hybrid gazelle
cedar kernel
#

What are the locations where you can find the “dernic grain” kind of block/entity/grass

#

Ofc in SE

#

But I’m more curious about like, where in dark forest it might appear

#

I know some of it can be seen in Garvan’s lab

#

Where else though?

wise thorn
#

or festival of the spirits

cedar kernel
#

They import things from dark forest for that for sure saltroll

mystic fulcrum
#

aledar is back

wise thorn
#

The Beyond (Festival of spirits location) and maybe places with a lot of decay?

cedar kernel
#

I find it funny how the dark forest is all spooky and then kander just bumps that up to eldritch

#

Does any of it appear in void?

#

Some random speculations: Did Aledar or Tasim ever visit Kander Forest? Where in gavel did they actually go to? When did Aledar learn of light and dark? Did Tasim only learn of it in Fruma or was he already aware of it?

hybrid gazelle
#

he already aware of it

cedar kernel
#

Tbh if the whole SE expedition team first went to Kander to prepare they maybe could have fared slightly better

cinder cedar
#

Aledar did make it to the edge of Kander Forest when you meet him and Elfaba and most likely went further

#

I have no idea what Lucio has been up to before the expedition, I have no memory of him before it.

cedar kernel
#

Lucio is exclusive to AJB

#

Tbh SE probably could get a half decent overhaul eventually

hybrid gazelle
#

SE questline need overhaul

#

which should not be too much of work

#

it probably be like nearly half of Fruma quest work

#

or quarter

#

i dont know

#

I wish AJB/AJF rework come with TNA quest and EO rework

#

i think EO just suck narratively wise because it make 0 attempt to follow up from AJF

#

it just

#

straight to gameplay

cinder cedar
#

Would be nice if AJB would feel more like a car crash in slow mo. You know it’s not going to end well but you cannot stop it.

cedar kernel
#

It would be also nice if the lead up was better

#

Like, if you could meet Tasim and Aledar in later quests in parts of gavel and Wynn

#

Since rn it’s just spider questline and that’s it

#

Well, spider questline and recover the past

cinder cedar
#

We need more Tasim and Aledar meet ups in general

cedar kernel
#

Yeah

#

Seeing them randomly in gavel would be really great

#

Or even not necessarily random

cinder cedar
#

I was expecting to at least see Tasim in Cinfras when I first got there :c

cedar kernel
#

Tasim being a friend kind of feels like he’s being too much of a friend for how long ago and how little we did things with him

cinder cedar
#

It does feel like Tasim doesn’t actually want to be our friend

#

Man’s too focused on his bf that changed his life upside down

hybrid gazelle
#

Tasim see us as his friend

#

it just a lot of thing going on

#

and also compare to Aledar

#

we just on lower pio

cedar kernel
#

Aledar moment

#

I wonder how the confession path will be different

bold geode
#

Remember how we saw tasim killing everyone in the trailer and we got none of that in game?

#

I suspect it has smth to do with that

cedar kernel
#

Yeah

#

Joins us instead

hybrid gazelle
#

I think in ideal world

#

AJB/AJF quest liekly turn into 3-4 part quests

#

and the ending mostly end up with Aledar and the group set up camp on each regions

#

r something along htat line

cedar kernel
#

Yeah

#

Two options; increase the difficulty to hammer home the idea that it’s an unforgiving place

#

(Double down)

#

Or tone down the absurd deaths of the quest

hybrid gazelle
#

I think SE should be difficult aloneside fruma yeah

#

like oky

#

first uqest is an introductory

#

that have you get a vague idea of SE first

#

and introduce you to it

bold geode
#

I mean. You do literally kill anathema in WTP and she’s a little stronger there than her “queen” vessel

hybrid gazelle
#

likely stopping around Olmic city

bold geode
hybrid gazelle
#

or go to Lutho actually

#

like either work

#

but i think it probably work better to stop at Olmic city or before entering olmic city

bold geode
#

What I hate about ajb and ajf is that im constantly told its way too dangerous to go alone and then oneshot everything

#

in fruma you’re told these guys are strong and then they actually are

#

Majin unfortunately beating the fraud allegations

icy juniper
bold geode
#

I completely wiped the floor with that bossfight and was then, in the cutscene, shown as if I were dying

#

which is kinda 💀

icy juniper
#

Im gonna be honest Aledar was my least fav character in all of fruma just felt like the most insane heel turn of all time

icy juniper
bold geode
#

I think I died like 3? Times in Majin, at least 7 on Z2, not a single time on any of the other story bosses

icy juniper
#

What class though

bold geode
#

the former I can attribute to light pillars and Majin hitting like a literal comet and the other is uhh lack of mana sustain for constant mobility ironically

bold geode
icy juniper
#

Gma?

bold geode
#

grandmother

icy juniper
#

I think mythics shouldn't really be expected for main story content

#

The bosses felt like they needed mythic level dps and I did it non mythics

bold geode
#

I mean, levelling my warrior I was doing just fine in morph with allegiance

untold warren
#

Yo anyone got a lore summary?

icy juniper
#

But also if you have any ranged attacks the bosses become pretty easy

untold warren
#

or a story summary, something like that

bold geode
icy juniper
#

I think assassin suckss for fruma felt so punishing to do anything because you gotta be close for dps

icy juniper
bold geode
#

Acro and trick I kinda see but shade should just be able to cheese mostly anything, from experience

frozen turtle
bold geode
#

vanish is an insanely powerful tool

icy juniper
#

And some mythics usually suck (archangel, low health id cata, grimtrap)

bold geode
slim belfry
#

who tf buys tier 7 powders

icy juniper
bold geode
#

grim doesn’t suck, it’s just offmeta saltroll

icy juniper
#

You get 10 le for level 90 quests btw

bold geode
#

I remember having over 20 le after solidarity of steel

icy juniper
bold geode
#

Did grim prices rise? They were super cheap last I checked

frozen turtle
#

mythics can be really expensive + the other armour can be expensive if u want decent stats

icy juniper
#

Plus higher ehp

bold geode
#

Yeah if you backstab smth your vanish just completely resets

#

Do less backstab damage for it but functional permanent invisibility

icy juniper
bold geode
#

iirc

frozen turtle
#

so just be in vanish, backstab, vanish

bold geode
bold geode
icy juniper
frozen turtle
#

majin only insta kills for the greenlight tho im pretty sure

bold geode
#

Idk man maybe my expectations are just unrealistic cause I have like 3.7k hours on this server and fruma has more than ever felt like it’s just throwing money at me in the form of quest rewards and ek runes and just raw emeralds from WE, not to mention the scaled raid rewards giving you like upwards of 6le per run some times

icy juniper
frozen turtle
#

i dont remember that lowkey

bold geode
#

If Majin instakills your build is likely too squish for fruma (he doesn’t instakill on morph archer iirc?)

frozen turtle
#

tho ig you'd have to regen mana at some point

icy juniper
icy juniper
frozen turtle
#

mage lightbender !!

icy juniper
#

You get the small amount of damage res from the swan dive, trickster is the only one with consistent ehp but they got rid of the overheal and im petty and dont like that, and shade doesn't regen in vanish

icy juniper
#

I was using on-tier gear and had 32kish ehp and 3 shots killed me from any boss, less if they used a better attack

#

The damage scaled but the ehp did not

slim belfry
#

I wonder did the player steal the fruma transcriber or was it meant to be given to them in panic

bold geode
icy juniper
icy juniper
slim belfry
#

ok there

bold geode
#

you can make basically any build arbitrarily tankier or squishier

#

the damage may suck but but I absolutely managed to nopot Z2 with morph allegiance (random legendary weapon with some MR, unpowdered)

icy juniper
#

It is designed around ranged attacks

#

I enjoyed a lot of the fights, but some of them were just a slog to get through

bold geode
#

I was playing bmonk

icy juniper
slim belfry
#

bmonk has ranged options

icy juniper
#

Its also Z2 and not the 7 phase gikyo fight

bold geode
slim belfry
#

yep!

icy juniper
#

What im saying is buff shurikens (real)

bold geode
#

Anathema depressing weapon solo except my hands would die because that shit was bad enough on ascended guard and that actually does more than 30k dps

#

This is not lore we’re discussing

#

Am I stupid?

signal bough
#

we're all stupid

bold geode
#

One thing I’m curious to know, is gikyo dead after getting ice spiked

#

They are just an evil shapeshifting slime, so idk, do they die when impaled?

signal bough
#

well he doesn't turn up again

#

other sovereigns seem to think he's dead

#

but honestly if there's any potential for 'dead fruman comes back' it would be with gikyo

signal bough
#

I must commit seppuku

bold geode
#

Too late, your family’s honor cannot be restored

slim belfry

highlands citizen interactions

bold geode
#

Majin stalking incident

signal bough
#

I do like Gikyo, and some mandatory peaceful interactions(including introduction of their preferred pronouns) are def called for prior to True Colors

formal bridge
#

Mistwoods in general feels a little less... packed than the other areas? I suppose it's to fit the vibe of the spooky rainforest, but I still overall felt it was just missing that little something

signal bough
#

yep, biggest gap is an aldwell introduction quest

untold warren

Hop on settings

split night
#

you can even make your own infobox so

drifting aurora
#

❌ wrong

split night
#

I thought syndra is at least from a familly in Hyloch

#

is this ✅

drifting aurora
#

never stated outright where she's from

unique cedar
#

Syndra is from Syndraville a secret 6th district of Fruma

mossy badge
#

Logically not roughworks, auburn, mistwoods, so most likely highlands/maybe aelumia

split night
#

should be at least high class considerng she got into the military and nearly became a sovereign

frozen turtle
#

she was a spy or smth like that (worked for the crown at least) and acted as a roughwork worker im pretty sure

wise thorn
#

How do territory bonuses work in lore?

#

Do the territory we take lose hope of freedom the longer they are held and work harder or something

edgy loom
#

syndra is a dernic construct

hybrid gazelle
#

This is not true

#

Because syndra literally said it herself that she got tansfer

#

Which is when she become part of military

#

And if she was indeed a spy

#

Then she would be inquisitor spies

#

She would not be part of division that would later get her to be a wing

#

It would make 0 sense for the crown to use one of their 3 division in military(regional, constable, or wing whatever Syndra is in during those time) as a spy

#

When they literally have division dedicated to spies

untold warren
#

Whats the lore relevance of the orcish-villager war?

#

other than racial prejudice

hybrid gazelle
#

Territory conquest

#

Thhe villager want to expand their territory

untold warren
#

So its like the toledo conflict?

hybrid gazelle
#

Which kick start the first orc war

#

And then there cease Fire

untold warren
#

Gavel is just a bunch of city-states pretending to be a nation right? Or a bunch of city-states that are either allied to each other, or want to kill each other

hybrid gazelle
#

So the most of current villager territory you see rn is the result of the first orc war

untold warren
#

Am i right on that one?

hybrid gazelle
#

Idk it not clear

untold warren
#

Because my initial thought was that each Province was united under one leader

hybrid gazelle
#

Nope

untold warren
#

Which was immediately disproven upon the existence of Troms King

hybrid gazelle
#

Not even Wynn

#

Yes

untold warren
#

Nemract is a Detlas colony then right?

hybrid gazelle
#

Wynn literally exist as different colonies with their own representatives

#

no e

#

Nemract is their own colony

untold warren
#

Okay so allied city-states then?

hybrid gazelle
#

Yes

#

Most likely

untold warren
#

and thankfully enough, Fruma is one united nation

#

With just a bunch of rebel groups

frozen turtle
narrow kestrel
#

so whats the plan after fruma

clear scaffold
#

wynn is fairly organsied with it with the only real places being outliers being nesaak and rymek, the rest are basically organised allies

narrow kestrel
#

dern expansion?

clear scaffold
untold warren
#

politics

narrow kestrel
#

then

untold warren
narrow kestrel
#

silent expanse expansion

#

then into dern itself

#

?

narrow kestrel
untold warren
#

Oh right

clear scaffold
#

not wrong tbf

frozen turtle
#

i'd imagine fruma then fixing up the earlier part of the game

untold warren
#

Aight time to work on Wynncraft politics

narrow kestrel
#

i feel like wastelands was supposed to be in d1 fruma release

untold warren
#

I'm just gonna fuckin eyeball it

narrow kestrel
#

but 7 years was starting to be a little too

#

long

#

so they just released fruma

clear scaffold
narrow kestrel
#

with wastelands tbd

clear scaffold
#

midgame though rn... yeah

frozen turtle
narrow kestrel
frozen turtle
#

so basically midgame-late pre fruma

#

first

clear scaffold
narrow kestrel
#

wynn sidequests are a boatload of nothing

untold warren
#

Theres some Gavel quests that still use armor stands btw

hybrid gazelle
narrow kestrel
#

atleast gavel sidequests have some lore to it

#

😭

hybrid gazelle
#

Thst the point of spies

#

Also syndra already said it that she got transferred

neat heron
#

honestly we should unionize and overthrow the wynncraftian overlords

clear scaffold
#

level 40-65 is just a drag with an occasional high point

untold warren
#

Fruma's only connection to the outside world is Ragni right?

hybrid gazelle
#

Syndra started as roughwork workers

i wonder if sovereign two will help the player more

since she sees the player as... useful?
