||idk, I just didn't see the S3 border, maybe S2s were there? same for verg||
Also man, based off all of the color skills so far
The indigo elder probably has a skill that’s just “get 99 poise and poise count”
he'll take a puff from his cigar and get 99 poise count
I love blemor in mirror dungeon
it's so funny to deal like 300 damage on clash win with peggor
did you catch some hands
I winrated ebony queen and won so clearly you guys just suck /j
I did win
(5 of my sinners out of the 11 I had in deployment order survived)
but only after losing 6 sinners
YEAH SAME LMAO
dude
fucking
200 AoE every other turn
on a threadlux
is criminal shit
okay well more like 100 since I broke the coin but the one time I didn't
ourhg.
I'm sorry for disrespecting her as a WAW
and I'm sorry for calling her a fraud after Brazen Bull was harder because now it's not anymore
get out the Ebony Queen's Apple apology forms...
Pilotnet issuing an apology for ebony queen stating quote
"i was not familiar with her game"
crazy how 8 cantos later we're filling out Ebony Queen apology forms
it's definitely not one i winrate
Imagine doing the canto 1 mirror dungeon pack and surprise the ebony apple is the upgraded version there
what will the moth do to me I thought it was easy in the story but maybe it'll fucking kill me
On Floor 1
agreed
ebony queen jumpscare
Also man, it is really funny to me that ||Rien tells Ryoshu “don’t worry daughter, in my heart you solo the rest of the sinners”||
Thanks to eventhubs for uploading the picture and theme.
Everything in this video belongs to Capcom and/or Marvel.
GAMING
Also man
||Ryoshu is a lot younger then I thought||
||I thought she was like, in her forties||
||But it seems like she’s in her late 20s to early 30s||
she does look the part
we were talking about that higher in the thread earlier
||there might be more after the big judgement cut....?||
||theory is that it's some kind of childhood memory in the safe and not a live daughter because the little girl Ryoshu wants to protect is her own past self||
||but you can't ever safe your past self from childhood abuse, just face it and sever the thread||
I feel like ||hearing a name immediately disproves that theory though, right? and that's what we got at the end of this part||
||It seems like her as a child and her daughter having the same voice as well as it being seemingly impossible for her to have ever gotten pregnant or raised a child in the span of time she served as an assassin to when she left point to the child being a representation of herself yeah||
It would also point to why in her EGO she's cradling her sword on the floor like that, it's her vulnerability
damn that was quick
heh
||only Big Bird I believe ||
yeah, it's Lantern, not Twilight
||Nah, gonna be revealed Marton survived and him and Alyssa are wearing punishment bird and judgment bird EGOs||
||Trust||
that's what I said earlier lmao
but also ||Marton fucking blew up so not likely||
at the same time
top 10 fanservice of all time
This canto has been fanservice central lol, trust the plan
Trust the vision
Unironically this canto has so much fanservice I love it
It’s awesome
Seeing the DD characters come back was crazy
Let alone Aeng Du and maybe Kim
first ALEPH appearance this canto trust
Nothing there appearance trust
Also legitimately, I am wondering if ||we’re gonna fight abnormalities or pectatula this dungeon||
||unless the house of spiders was also built over an old l Corp branch for some reason||
||which like… actually is a distinct possibility||
||if la manchaland was built over one who’s to say anymore||
don id spoiler. ||A god huh......||
Testing the new Don ID out in a solo run
So I think I get the gist of her gameplay
She's much more punishing outside of solo play from my understanding, especially because she plays a lot like Dieci Hong Lu where you're forced to consider the opportunity cost of her skills
Also plays weirdly like a mix between Wildcliff and Philclair
Basically after getting enough unlock stages she triggers a stance change, then immediately cancels stagger if she's suffering from it. She gets -2s (and a -3) for her skills, absolutely massive power to boot
That said she definitely doesn't like it if you don't fulfill her prescripts
You can ignore a few but it's gonna catch up fast if you repeatedly refuse to follow that blue flower
You must obey the will of the Prescript
*sometimes
You can get a little bit of bad karma, just don't get too much
Also her counter is apparently a Clashable counter in her unlock/EGO state
Which is interesting
Be aware that her counter is going to gather that karma status effect though so be careful about that
Also can I make an absolutely wretched joke?
From @ yongsadragon
go for it
Literally Index Don
I am brain poisoned
I'm not gonna lie though that's literally her fucking story lmao
...I haven't gotten to see this apprentice yet but why do I immediately imagine him sounding like fucking Zack Hadel
her
I
Oh my god
I'm going to explode in a corner now
My brain has been fried this entire week
She’s 28 years old
I'm more annoyed that I got the gender mixed up than the voice thing
Like that part was an obvious joke
Also man I got spoiled now...

We got her birth date
And we know the current year from Dante’s notes I think
Ohhh righg
It does make it somewhat unlikely ||for her to have a child||
||it's just occurred to me that Valencina might be part of why Ryoshu doesn't eat much||
||esp when you got whole five nursefathers managing her every aspect of life||
||and I highly doubt a pregnancy was part of their plan||
I mean ||her kid has been shown to be like, 5||
||the main scene we have of her is her learning how to read||
for index don
you can get unlock 1 by turn 2 in a focused fight
which is pretty cool
man...
what a peam act 2
||So this does soft confirm that the Nursefathers seem to be like members of the fingers that got like ousted from their postion or something like that? Like the Valencina thing, Matthias saying how is not in the Biz anymore and isnt in his prime||
Like uhh
||I can't tell if they got kicked out or if the deal is that their superiors went "you're old and busted get off the battlefield and into a school so you can pass your skills on before you bite it"||
||they aren’t out of the organization but they are basically in exile||
||hmm yee. I think for the Ringfather I could see them not fitting in cause their style doesnt go with the three big ones?||
Kinda the same energy as being promoted to a director of a facility in Antarctica
yeah
||I do love Matthias, Ringfather and Rien having the fucking time of their lives while our female nursefathers just fucking hate everything about their current live||
also ||fucking Matthias twoshotting a waw abno jesus christ.||
||the boy-mom nursefathers are definitely more, uh, attuned with the whole theme of being forcibly married off and losing their place as individuals||
yeeee
Valencia is the female abusive father rep we need in the world today
Moses mentions that ||Kira had to learn to play video games and comics because that was the only way she could get Matheas to interact with her||
||Matthias is a dumb manchild who can't fulfil Kira's need for parental attention, Ringdad we don't really know about well enough but it seems like Ringdad doesn't really treat Albina as a daughter so much as a coworker underling and studio apprentice, and Rien...||
He’s the type of father who’s totally absorbed in his own world
the correct dating system
||the less said about Rien's approach to parenting the better||
based
he do be indexing
man the Index is one of the sickest thing project moon has created for sure
they are so good
Rien ||seems to have intentionally fucked with a girl’s minds and did some kind of fucked up pavlov training on her to get her to develop ego||
truly we have been granted some fire index lore for our patience
||Also I cannot overcome the fucking broken Malkuth moment.....||
ALSO
bets now
||IS KIM GETTING AN EGO GEAR FOR SPIDER ASSAULT?||
We love to see a woman excel in a male dominated field
Effloresced.
tbf we do manage to 3 turn WAW abnos already…
also gimme the ||redux kim id asap||
He’s still stupid strong, don’t get me wrong
Like most index has to interact with messengers for their prescript and get directives from paper slips without every knowing for sure they are doing the right thing for the index
ye but he also soloed it, attacked the facilty and beat up the recon team
Yuh
||she gets directives instantly an constantly from a pager and it instantly tells her whether she got it right or wrong||
I’m just noting that our sinners aren’t ultra mega impossible outclassed ourselves
She got that instant gratification
||the "13 sinner beside me" line is sending me||
Carmen tries to explain how it works
when we fight rick dias it will be on even ground...
But she realizes she can’t explain it yet because th world starts glitching
So she doubles back and gives a simpler explanation
Which is a very human depiction of her lmfao
“Anyways this works by ^}€~* and {%|*.—oh wait, I can’t…”
“Anyways this works by simpler and more enigmatic explanation”
That E.G.O, which is a proxy of ■■■, a god of the City, is quite similar to a Distortion.
A concept, perceived as "Prescripts", ■—
Oh. This isn't yet…
Effloresced E.G.O::Procuration.
Just as it was the case with the Nursefather of the Index, whom the child follows as her "Master..."
... it is interesting, how even the E.G.O that bloomed from her own is an imitation of something else```
Yep. The Sinners are no longer weak, Limbus Company is simply in a position where they’re fighting top-tiers who have had time to set up
Question is
also, whats the strat against ren and albina
I wouldn't say top-tiers, but yeah we're definitely not fodder anymore
my rankings are: 7, 8, 4, 6, 5, 3, 1, 2 in that order
How are we going to obliterate the spider house
Kill ren and then kill albina
does that last line mean rien has a similar ego?
i did that but ig i didnt focus fire enough
I think it’s referring to his transforming style weapon
it's an imitation of the god of the City
oh balls
Yeah
that makes Sora a living idol of that god
considering she gains horns and a halo, as well as a weaponized tail, while her EGO is active
Yan also did have his distorted form resemble a large being with two massive hands
Hmm, ||after it being brought up, I still do think Ryoshu’s kid is real but I am thinking how she’d have one. And the more I think, I do kinda think that the kid is apart of the Spider’s plan. Specifically, that she was basically next in line to inherent Ryoshu’s position.||
||Right now a big part of the canto is essentially, motherhood being used as a “trap” of sorts. Dihui Star was stuck in the house of spiders because she was chosen to help raise Ryoshu, and now Ryoshu’s kid is being used as bait to have her come home. I think that the house of spiders set up this system, intentionally. That the blade that cuts all would have a child they’d raise to become the next blade, and so on. Forcing them to eternally stay bound to the house of spiders.||
||Ryoshu, by hiding away her child, was attempting to stop this cycle. She’d be able to escape and once she destroyed the house of spiders, she could raise her child, not as an anchor weighing her down, but instead independently as her own person||
I'm all in on the god being Yan, either as an abno or distortion
canto 8 spoilers ||the garion cameo was crazy||
tbf I think that's because both Yan and Sora have this major theme of agency and the ability to change things lol
repeated symbols because of similar problems
"a" god
like neurosis becoming lightning
so possible
I don’t think abnos are gods
big yan has big claws no
Carmen certainly won’t call any abnos gods
but would the index call em that though
I think she’s referring to actual gods
they both have these huge, shackled hands that are symbolic of the Prescript's power and will
Which we know exist
I think she's referring to what people call Gods of the City
Roland mentions encountering one or two back in the day
Roland met two
He what
see
hwhat
Roland's a fucking Color Fixer you guys
VERGILIUS HASN'T MENTIONED MEETING GODS AND HE'S A COLOR
He knows everyone and everything
one of the best Fixers of his day largely on the basis of information gathering
his job
Yah but Roland specialized in information gathering
was to know everyone and everything
It’s not like gods are anything special guys
and holy SHIT did he ever
It’s just a god
His job was essentially to meet people
He tried to talk to the sweepers
It didn’t work
Oh yeah fair lmao I forgor
But he tried
I mean he kinda succeeded in the end
But yeah Roland mentions he met a god or two back in the day specifically in the context of bringing up weird beliefs like index
like the thing is
Roland has the whole Sakra-al-Djinni boast on lock
And becomes a phenomenon called god
which ttrpg has that ruleset again
Mage
he's spoken with Solomon, he built the walls of Karnak, Uruk, and Prague, etc.
Roland has been everywhere and done everything that guy is a FREAK
But yes
Gods are a known phenomenon
So Carmen here is most likely specifically referring to an actual god
bro at some point we gonna be playing How To Kill A God
He’s probably like, the second well traveled guy in the city besides like, Bari
Not an abno or a distortion
(actual manhwa)
the head is God
Whom she usually calls her children
Paradiso probably
but has probably travelled further and seen more weird shit
ok can I ask someone that I find curious
like she has the Bloodfiend connection
Dante is both luciferian and messianic
and the Head is both God, Demiurge (same thing to the gnostics) and the three headed Satan of the cold pit
||What is the point of training and filling a person with 5 finger knowledge to be the perfect killer and then give her a sword that requires memories to swing and kill?? Like am I missing something. There must be more to this||
But isn’t welcome in the high halls herself
One of the 12 paladins
adapatations of the inferno should give big tri-satan bug wings because bat wings do not flap that fast that it creates ice
Most honored knight of the city
the real way you can tell Roland is so knowledgeable is because he knows all the best restaurants in the city
yeah he's the fucking Knower
Not a miss “thrown in the forest to literally fucking die”
he's a michelin restaurant reviewer...
Roland is just the equivalent of those “ex hitman reacts to Hitman” video
He sees the wackiest shit imaginable and goes “yah I knew a guy who did that once”
oh my God I want the Roland running commentary version of Limbus Company
“Ex Grade 1 fixer reacts to Color Fixers”
where he's just like "ah yeah see this is a rookie mistake you never go straight into a basement like that"
I’m still giggling|| at Rien considering sinner power scaling to be “her report card”||
and just glowers when Vergilius is there
||The whole train person to be killer and then give her a sword that requires memories to pay plan is sending me||
It’s so funny
I fucking HATE this callback gag
DESPICABLE
amazing
I mean ||the one thing that doesn’t seem to leave her is her knowledge of murder||
||Kinda? But Valencina does confirm that she forgot a lot about her sword style which is why she trains Textbook right?||
Also Chatroom, what do y’all think of this idea?
Yeah Ryoshu forgot ||a lot about her own sword style||
see I feel that it's absolutely what we're being primed to expect
but I don't know if that's what's gonna happen
Yeah
there hasn't been a huge gutwrenching twist in this canto yet and I feel one coming on
Like there must be something deeper about the ||sword|| why it is worth to use the sword or there is something that ryo is missing or is untrue
has it been hard confirmed that ||daihu star/the pinky NF is her bio mom or nah||
I’m starting to doubt
Nah
But… idk probably
||the most tragic thing is ryoshu being able to protect but her daughter choosing sacrifice anyways||
They do rather|| sound alike||
||it leaves unrecoverable wounds, I guess? Shiomi Yoru said it does but then she was like LOL I LIED so who knows||
||she could also just be a projection though||
||it’s very hard to tell with her||
||she could be lying about lying||
But dihui star ||kinda states that the responsibility to raise Ryoshu was suddenly thrusted upon her||
In a manner ||that kinda suggests that Ryoshu isn’t her child||
yeee
||also man, how much was Pilot fucked up that ampules can’t fully heal him?||
||genuinely what’d they do to the guy?||
Well ampules can’t seem to heal ||Aeng du and saude’s arms either||
I wonder why that is
i kinda call bullshit on that
Otherwise ||st least one of the sinners would have given them their own ampules by now||
||because guido could just keep majima'ing back after whatever||
Yeah I feel like there's some fishy shit going on
And they did heal Dante after they lost like
||so i dont necessarily believe it's consistent writing to be like ohhh an arm cant grow back||
Half of their own body
spoilers for spring cultivation
||it does seem to be less effective with amputation||
yeah
Welcome to the minigame of all time
Princess maker
Princess maker!
it's hierarch musume time
Well, “minigame”
Welcome to Princess maker
LMAO (canto 9 spoiler)
the uma is on vacation sorry
it counts as a minigame
COMBO COMBINATIONS??
The Matthias scar is very hot it has to be said
yeah
The new Battlepass EGO lends itself to very funny text.
||Matthias truly is just a yakuza character||
Yes. Have fun discovering all of ‘em and their names
I ❤️ scissoring
she dotes on her favorites
She’s playing Rimworld while everyone else is playing warhammer 40k
holy shit, all railways
I should update my corporate roster with index Don
If only
She had better poise and gloom. Egos
Hmm
Wonder if we could extract an ego from a god
shes everything ive ever wanted
Missing one.
I only joined the game during Canto IV.
Being an Udjat sounds like a pretty nice gig so far as the City goes
welll
You can tell due to how scuffed my completion is for RR2.
bro here with the jesus EGO
until you get your gear sabotaged
ryo is already holding the One Sin
Okay well I was probably dying at some point anyways
if the evil woman who lords over me decides i die today so be it we are just stepping stones for her ascension
True!
Me and ICEOUT are gonna be the best Udjat in the world
I wonder if we'll get any more LCA IDs
guaranteed
we're gonna get more heishous with the bokgak
then we'll uhhh
get more vanguards
||OH MY GOD THEY PLAYED D&D||
they sure did
||https://youtu.be/nMjZtwhIuIA||
9-30 spoilers
00:00 Phase 1
01:34 Phase 2
04:13 ENTER
||Someone soloed the Didui Star too||.
||Or whatever she's called IDC||.
||Doesn't deserve to have her title remembered||.
oh man no wonder they all took w ryoshu
Evade
I am loving getting so many more sprite cutscenes
It's awesome
I really love them
Index proxy
If you start winning, they get stronger
If you start losing, they get stronger
Index do work in mysterious ways
Even failure to comply with a prescript leads to benefit for the index and their proxies
Will of the city always wins
Man chat, the more we ||see Rien, the more I think Ryoshu started talking using acronyms because of him||
||his insistence on words inbetween words and his general manipulations||
Rien and his fpoon
Fpoon is a deeply evil word
fooon wouldve been better
||but also legitimately I think him teaching Ryoshu words a metaphor for weapons feels like it’ll be the origins of Sangria||
f/oh/oo/n
spring cultivation spoilers, asking for help ||jeez, what the fuck do i do against wei?||
||he has negative coins, and bodied me on turn 2||
Are you using a sinking team?
||oh wait i just learned something about rien, they might've JUST stolen the safe||
||like, needing to steal wayward EGO gear might possibly be important?||
but im more willing to bet its ||Sora||
no???
Ah ok, just making sure
||i just won the clashes on t1, and the negative coins fucked me up||
Because otherwise it’d be way worse
Really, him being negative coins isn’t to bad
Most of his skills have a pretty low cap
Generally 11-14
It kinda is just a win the clash scenario, one of his passives makes him gain sanity on clash loss
oh
I’d recommend just making sure to always clash his higher rolling skill with a skill 2 or 3
And use skill 1s on his 11 rollers
If you have none or not enough, consider using a defensive skill
Evades especially
It’s better to go for the defensive skill then a neutral or worse clash
Whew
What a part 2
Just finished 9-35
That was peam
To be fair, he ||literally just took the examination, like he was the freshest one could be from something like that||
Lmao
He says the opposite, actually
The ||limited tests done says he's more than fit to use it||
My goofy ass used TotB while he was on 1, forgetting about the Bleed 😭
Bro really just went poof
Canto 9 part 2 everything spoilers ||keywords "not fully and thoroughly tested", he's been known to make decisions that work out in the moment but suffer consequences later like using tedious components for the energy grid that he spent a while repairing at the cost of Marton||
I hunger for more of this tbqh
||Oh I'm not saying he's to be believed||
I'm just pointing out that tendency of his that you mentioned
||He does in fact hype himself up a lot lmao||
||he really likes obfuscating how much he's winging it on uncertainties||
Might wanna label what node this spoils
Just incase someone gets jumpscared by that last line
||said he could survive for some moments after dying to the ring nursefather as if that'd buy marton enough time lmao||
||Hey look he knew the alternative alright||
ill just spoil it with the everything so if there's literally anything you dont know youll be less likely to click it
||said i could solo with AEDD, dear researcher: we're so fucked||
||unfortunately he did take the alternative, not willingly||
||Marton just out sacrificed himself ||
||His goal wasn't to solo tbf, just to do what Marton did in his stead||
Canto 9 part 2 everything spoilers
||one of em was dying at least, they both knew that||
||Poor Hohenheim though
How many times will his assistants sacrifice themselves for his sake ||
||he's still got one left||
||Aye. Would this perhaps have gone differently if Dante hadn't wished so earnestly...||
||so at least one more time||
||Up until he himself dies yes. I feel like he's the type of person where, as his subordinate, you just feel like reciprocating what he's doing||
||He's already so afraid Alyssa is taking the Moth EGO into the raid ||
||Maybe this is why the Smoke was such a big deal...||
||remarkably more socially appealing than faust in canon, she maddd||
||Ngl I would be too, I've used ABS Faust significantly and from that "argh" she does not sound like she's recovered enough to not resort to the explosion||
i mathematically can't win every clash???
Can you share it with the class por favor
||truthfully, like wholly and truthfully, the non sinner wounded should probably not be a part of this raid but the city's the city and if youre not dead youre dying||
i cant even get out of turn 1 without him winning at least one clash and cascading from there
whatchu got trouble w
I recommend bringing SP support to bolster your numbers
whats the team looking like
I'm not entirely sure about recommending that you field Gripper Faust but that may very well be necessary
||wait--final battle or wei||
because those are two separate fights
Oh oops I forgot
Latter
||Was Saru mentioned more than once? I only remember the name being exclaimed by Araya, saying that her name isn't as random as it||
1 sec
||saru means monkey||
So the accusation ||of “that’s such a lame name” is probably right if it’s a name for a monkey||
MD Star?
i dont really have anything else
zweiclair's self tremor is gonna fuck you up here
You have N Sang too
im just using him for his passive
if youre fielding nfaust then that may be your problem
i really doubt n sang would do better
TIL, thank you
I really hope this one ends well
ringsang's skill 1 is also just like
Like I highly highly doubt it
i was fielding kk lu and he was clashing like shit too
painful
But I still hope for it
kkhong lu is also a sufferer of clash bad syndrome
part of the new kk duo is having the older kk IDs die because they kinda suck at staying alive
i wanted to try and do it without supports but naaaah
Clashes better
just support em
i'll put up index proxy don
its all good, i spend the enkaphelin on modules anyways
you can also use nsang to get nshu synergy
or double slot one of the bloodfiends, ideally meursault
or peggor
i havent used him but he's a walp id
Why not ManaDon?
thats what the support is for
you could do that
drop outis
double slot mana
it's less likely barber outis is going to ramp up before people start dying
Double slot?
Bringing 1 less Sinner than the node allows you to in order to give the one you deploy first an extra skill slot
That only kicks in turn 2, mind, but it can be very very potent
take less Sinners into a fight so that your #1 deployed gets multiple skill slots
They only ever get 1 unless you deploy...was it -3?
okay let me be more clear ig
you take less sinners so the remaining skill slots will get added in deployment order
ie at 6 Sinners / 7 skill slots, on turn 2 your #1 deployed gets 1 extra
at 4 Sinners / 7 skill slots, on turn 3 your #2 gets the next extra skill slot, then your #3 on turn 4
at 3 Sinners, on Turn 5 your #1 will get their 3rd skill slot since you need to fill all 7 slots with just 3 Sinners (eventually)
Aha, so -4. ok ok
I love the banter between these two
I honestly interpret that as ||Dante quoting someone else's words. Dante themselves is sinner #10 after all||
||I feel like that was a technique Moses pulled rather than a person||
I haven't read DD though so I wouldn't know
sora
Nay, ||she did that to herself. The commendations were well deserved imho||
Oops
Didn't see that you were already corrected my bad-
god, this is sucha volatile fight
if you loose one clash on a bad skill you just loose
I mostly attributed the Proselytes. I do still use their later keypages though
This is probably because 'tis around the time PMoon felt that we should be seeing the Sinners die some more by amping the difficulty
I recommend using EGO to win clashes even if you go negative next turn
Getting ||Wei|| to higher SP is more important
LCE EGO have a more flexible sync limiter. Agent requirements stil exist to ensure that stuff like the Faelantern incident doesn't repeat itself
It's not even the sin most tied to her
It's just her name!
[suffering]
is there anything harder than ||wei|| so far
Frankly felt that the trio fight in canto ||7|| was harder
So what I'll say probably won't map to you
ok, granted i got carried by the ego gifts in that one
Especially if you uh, happened to remember your Durante abilities existed unlike me
I beat the main bosses of part 2 without them but also what the fuck man 😭
I think nothing has been as hard as even ||Wei|| as long as you're able to read carefully and clash on the level it expects
just read index don's uptie story what th efuck
Yeah it turns out the kids are not alright (I have not read the uptie)
Thank you for blursing me with this ???? of a video
I'll be sure to pass this onto whomever I'll find that it'll apply to
To add to Blue's advice, use Ryo as a tank, especially against ||Deathedge||, the wrath skill
Clash her green skills first when you can
||For me it was use fast skills to clash against the first ones that lower her clash power on lose, then clash the aoe unbreakable last,||
Curiously, that affect doesn't apply at all to the ||arm she's holding the bough canister with||
To be fair, the branch came later, it's just that ||La Manchaland just so happened to be built there too before it disappeared||
Also
If Jia Qiu shows up somehow
||We know the nursefathers are gonna get absolutely fucking NUKED||
he’s gonna become Antifraud Virgilius with how much wrath there’ll be /j
That wasn't the ||sword she was to wield, supposedly. Remember that project the Ring NF showed her?||
Caught up backreading!!!
welcome back to the present
maybe
What are the stakes gonna be in Paradisio
Considering we're having a tough time by outnumbering our betters and using tricks on them...that's probably too early
Unrelated: I can't help but feel like the ||glitched Malkuth ability was caused by the Index fucking up the flow||
||The whole plan was noted to be by Rien after all||
||Vespa clashes average 25~, 38 on S3||
||With an s1 he ties/trumps our EGOs||
Given that that’s our current sinner’s S3s…
Nah that’s S1, S2
Also that's just clash power
Like okay
This is futzing with how exactly a personhood is spread between the combat stats but
Yeah but I’m just noting that we’re growing hella fast now
And given that we do get IDs for SoTCs (Caposault) and EGO / Shin being options now…
And Caposault clashing for 30 on S3-2
Yeah there’ll be a a possibility that we get IDs on the level of grade 1s
Huuh
Ishmael…
thinking about the nursefathers
i think matthias is like
Potential Dad
deadass
dude needs to make Kira his Special Interest and boom
perfect dad material, right there, lmao
That'll presumably only happen if Ryoshu permanently dies unfortunately
yeah sadly
Actually hrm
I hope it ends up with Virgilius adopting them all or something silly like that
i really hope Ryoshu crashes tf out and somehow her blade cuts into their "bad sides" or something
and makes them realize the weight of their own actions
but yeah right as if
Have any of the bluman cantos had good endings
lets see...
Yi Sang's is bittersweet more than anything
Ish is close but yesh
ishmael's too, actually
Ish is second purely because Ahab is an ass
but i feel like ishmael's is also, not quite the same kinda "good" we're looking for
True yea
her story isnt complete either
only hong's is a closed good ending
Ahab is still alive, afterall, with N Corp fucking around
Stakes being addressed?
yeah
basically
ishmael's current story arc is over but theres some plot points needing resolving (ahab, n corp, mostly)
complete enough
heathcliff, his story goes onnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn
and its sad
hongler's is the only one where i dont see his story having those "open" points of conflict
everything would have to be someone new, basically
You know
I realize now that ||sora nitpicking Kira’s comics was probably her trying to engage with Kira||
huh
autism to overadjusted communication
also
wait
that means they did indeed read through the comics
and enough to make a critique of it
Yeah
That was her attempting to engage with Kira and sharing her hobbies
Kira just never noticed because as middle members she literally can’t take any criticism
the middle is kinda moronic for that imo
like
i get it
you wanna beat the shit outta rude shits
and i agree
I’m of the opinion that middle actually is the worst syndicate
For a variety of reasons
but you gotta learn to take the l sometimes
i think if the middle had a better threshold for their actions
they would be actually pretty chill
like
Nah for me it’s also that
world's craziest lawyers who beat you up with chains while sharing a blunt together?
They actually do understand love and loyalty and kindness and friendship
They just actively refuse to show it
Which makes them more morally bankrupt than other fingers in my eyes
mmmm
At least others genuinely are insanely devoted to their one principle
Index have no morality nor do they pretend to it
non of them are morally "wrong", so to say
Middle will preach to you about righteousness and justice
While killing you for spilling ice cream
yeah
Also incapable of taking criticism
Thumb will kill you for being impolite but they are internally consistent and apply their own standard to themselves (even if the standards are insane)
The middle won’t
Uhh
We dont know much about pinky still no
the pinky just do their own shit
and then they're like
"btw get together we got shit to do"
and then they do the shit
and
the rest is whatever, lmao
It’s noted to have been quite a while since the last time a caucus was called
I guess last time it was called was during ruina
also, they're "good" enough for jia qiu to stay, so they're probably not morally bankrupt in a way
Jia Qiu claims that pinky is founded on humanistic principles
Whatever that means atm
he's probably not wrong
probably
i mean he's strong enough to talk to like, what
wing leaders and shit
Yeah he’s doing his own politics n
I’m guessing he’s angling to call a new pinkie caucus
Apparently the Palm is an in universe conspiracy theory
That the fingers are in fact controlled by a single organization
I normally would of course laugh at such silly claims
i feel like it could be true though
But then valencina mentioned that Central branch of fingers exist
which is funny
And the idea suddenly seemed a lot more believable
mmm
Would be a lot easier to manage just five central branches all located within abc corp territories
No, this is a distortion in DD
🎄"Maybe, just in this small moment in time, we can all come together." 🎄
I wanted to make a more heartfelt animatic for Connor and something nice for the holidays! Thus we dive into Connors past and his growing apathy for the holidays... just then his friends surprise him and treat him to an unforgettable night. It truly isn't about the p...
Lucio becomes a powerful distortion and we distract him with an aleph abno
I want them to survive and live together
I don't think we have comfirmation of what the dominant ring styles are
Also, they work as a distraction when he isn't giving her attention
She is desperate for any crumb of affection from him, and knows she'll be kicked out once he gets ryoshu, but hopes she can earn a spot in the family
I really want ryoshu to call her sister
And she looks like an angel and demon
The smoke monster may have been one
The what
Bug wings dante
Bug dante
Reaction fic with roland and kali giving the most commentary
Might be ampule grade
K corp must have different levels of healing ampules
It'd be more profitable if they did yea
||I think if they weren't literally fucking homeless and poor they'd be a decently high up SotC tier||
too good and it would probably risk trouble from more prosthetic focused corps.
At the very least, Kim’s squad of blade lineage were royal guards
So it makes sense that they are cracked compared to most
I doubt that all of the blade lineage is so skilled
The way they are described seem to imply they are pretty varied in skill
With Kim’s faction being just weirdly skilled
there's other blade lineage groups out there?
diagetic reason why BL has varying ID effectiveness /j
Yeah, that makes sense
Granted, some people choose to replace body parts for reasons
And I think ampules restore clothes, and probably restore prosthetics.
(Also k corp itself likely has its fingers in the prosthetic market)
Ah shi don has no shine in her eyes
... Why does she have no count
Who
Shi don
Art Source | TL + TS by me
The BL are large enough to have different factions?
Considering the apparent absence of boluses in K Corp and HP ampules in H Corp I feel like this is one of the last things they need to worry about
Within their respective nest, corps seem to have total monopoly in their own field
Sorta
When Bl scattered from S Corp they went in every which direction
Aha
So stands to reason not everyone followed Kim specifically
And some of the BL ids don’t talk about Kim or his equivalent as a leader
(Outis is the leader of her chapter I think)
Though she’s not a mentor
I want to hug her and tell her everything will be okay
I need to see all of the Nursefathers dead by the end of this Canto or I will riot
The contract must be fulfilled
But also the flow is getting fucky
No worries
Will of the prescript will guide us down the flow
Unerring
Inevitable
Ordained
This is why the index nursefather is pissing Ryoshu off
To incite destruction upon the rot of the spider’s house
Anyways the events of this Canto and the realizations we've had have successfully made me stop thirsting for Valencina and just vehemently despise her
Thank you KJH for breaking my habit of being too into toxic women
Sora though deserves ice cream
Agreed
Even though ||she did totally murder ravi||
I think that the apprentices are going to be the only ones affiliated with the spider house besides Ryoshu who survive this Canto
Or at least, some of the apprentices
We are just not ||gonna talk about Ravi’s untimely demise||
Don needs to romance sora
Go for every sinner's little sister
Gregor: But my sister is dead, so she doesn't count. Right? ... Right?
||do you think Sora will get hired by LCE after||
I imagine ||Sora genuinely just doesnt know anything beyond following the prescripts||
She’s like a clicker trained puppy, yes
||I think it's definitely possible, especially with her E.G.O||
I’m not even certain if her prescripts are real
The uptie got me thinking they're not
The sinners put it well enough imho
That she’s ||getting her prescripts on a device is very odd||
||it might just be Rien giving her fake prescripts||
Especially since unlike most prescripts ||it immediately tells her whether she got it right or wrong||
I like to think that ||Sora and Kira could be friends in a world where they aren't part of the Spider House. If they weren't affected by shitty parents and being treated as secondary and lesser||
||she doesn’t even get a sword, only thing she has is a closk||
||and you know who else is conspicuously missing his index cloak?||
I need a world where the 5 apprentices are just friends. I need that very much. It would be nice, I think.
||Rien||
Yeah
So what if ||Rien is just conning Sora into thinking she’s a proxy when she’s not||
||I wonder why Rien hasn't been executed or smth by the prescripts yet||
I dunnow maybe because|| he’s a SotC by himself or because he’s upholding the will of the prescript who knows||
||or otherwise punished||
Makes sense
||Sora and Kira babysitting araya at limbus while ryoshu is with us||
Anyways
They had the opportunity to choose but didn't exactly had a better alternative
We are gonna need a palate cleanser after this canto
So the next intervallo better be quirky
Just normal kids doing normal kid things together amd having real connections
Yan wasn't
||Okay yeah true he just got distorted||
Yeah index doesn’t punish you for not following the prescript or otherwise betraying it
It’s got its more esoteric criteria’s
Imagine rien ||trying to kill araya but Sora, due to ryoshu being genuinely kind to her and also seeing her younger self in the kid, rescues her and runs, clutching the kid in her ego||
At her current state ||Ryoshu is more likely to deliver total extermination than kindness to any obstacle in her oath||
Much can happen in part 3
Will ||Jamila survive part 3||
Methinks we will fight actual index proselytes next part
||I hope so...||
I wonder if we'll get to see any of the ||Ring NF's students, if any. I'm curious how Students of the Corpolist school go||
Considering the apparent size of districts within nests...okay the number surprised me a little but not as much when I realized All That Ocean is U Corp
It’s an underground facility
And then some on the shore too
That’s kilometers wide
I'd sure hope it is what with how many fuckers we found it to house!
I wouldn't be surprised if LobCorp HQ was like, depicted to be unfathomably large in comparison were it not built on a budget from a failed kickstarter
That’s bigger than the Cheyenne mountain complex!
That’s an absurd amount of space lmfao
Lobcorp hq actually is pretty massive
It's housing some of the most absurd things in the City
I’d say it’s about the size of daguanyuan tbh
It towers over everything else in L nest
Also limbus has space tech
Nugget travel speed doesn't make it feel that way
I'm talking when it was still underground
it is so funny we got the (potential) usurper name from udjat outis uptie before ingame but makes sense we got it from an lca member
||I hope so...||
Oh that’s IMMACULATE
Outis and Rodion got me acting up
-# @1ofAgnesDigital
What sin is Gold Ship most associated with?
Heathcliff is holding two wine glasses because hes still hoping to give the second to who he lost
ryoshu rocking the pantsuit
also subtly rocking the highest heels
faust and rodion are close but I think slightly shorter
Three stagger bars no...
“No, you’re supposed to obey me!”
The 7 centipede souls
FUCK
clear within 10 turns
you’re shitting me
well
that was good
I was looking for that one
I have... 2 identities for don quixote...
regular donqui and monitoring donqui
having a Volatile EGO ID as one of your starting IDs to play with is actually mad funny I think
forget vanilla Limbus Company mechanics we're going straight to the advanced concepts
We're skipping straight to thermodynamics fuck algebra
Tbf the don id is fairly straightforward to use I feel
I am lamenting the 5 shards I need for ut4 xd
Early season pain
Ye
that does simplify things
Canto 9 spoiler ||I do think it's funny that they went with yellow harpoon instead of like yellow stinger||
I hae thought the exact same thing from the first second I saw it
Oh btw uh for the uptie story of that don id I would skip it and read it once you reach canto 9
Its fine I know about it alr
While I havent watched anything of it I have a vague understanding of the concepts
Have you guys noticed that all the Beastmen/Monsters of the outskirts we've seen so far all seem to ttie to an Abnormality
Have they?
I don’t know that the sheepmen we heard about in sheep don’s uptie are related to any abnos
Cool. So what ids and ego you have?
Don seems like a good poise id and can be used for sinking
There are sheep abnos but the wei heishou don't seem specially connected to Electric Sheep nor Void Dream
Well the Gnomes seem to be related to Sandolph, and the Cuckoo Spawn seem to be related to Apocalypse Bird
Oh like purely the ones we’ve gotten eyes on
Well, we sandolph is an aberration of rudolta, that seems to represent a general vibe of not getting the same joy others have on christmas
Actually, the birds and christmas abnos kinda touh on the same theme of the city itself, I think?
For the gnomes, the city shuns them and keeps its resources to itself, plus the way the city exploits the outskirts.
So the giant and the gnomes started taking it out on humans shunned by the city while opportunistically also attacking city humans. Then they'd make presents for their fellow mosnters
The birds are weird
The abnos represent the head that sought to protect humanity but became a threat upon it
while the cuckoo spawn, as we know them, may be a threat but don't seem like a big problem in the outskirts? At least from what I know.
Well they seem like they'd instantly wipe out any human settlement
And it was enough of a threat that the Head sent more to deal with them than they did to deal with the Library
Oh true
Like significantly more
Sorry I’m still reeling over don’s uptie story mentioning ||procuration ego and the gods of the city||
But it's abit odd we only see them once.
The cuckospawn may have been supressed in the outskirts due to their sheer multiplication
The Head's objective with the Library was different, though
You know
I reckon the cuckoo spawn are significantly less dangerous in places where they can’t explosively multiply
It still says a lot about the Head's allocation of forces
Compared to an absurdly dense city
It’s possible abnos are from the collective unconscious and that that collective unconscious includes all sentient beings not just humans? But
Where one escaped specimen could cause an absolute shitstorm
(Hence the need to surround and contain them with an overwhelming force)
Yeaaaah
