Phillip not being stable enough to keep it because there were doubts in his mind or smth

[split beacon]

Phillip wasn’t stable enough because his conviction wasn’t absolute, yes

He was still a coward and he knew deep down that his bravery was a facade, if he had doubled down and said “even if it’s a facade I’ll keep going, even if I’m afraid right now I’ll face this despite being afraid” he would’ve gained a true EGO

Interesting idea
Restoring memories undoes the permanent wounding effect

[stoic fjord]

real bravery type shit

[split beacon]

It’s possible that restoring the memories undermines the blade’s properties sure

[split beacon]

It’s not about doing it cuz you’re not afraid anymore

[stoic fjord]

how do you build Xiao

[lean fjord]

so the obvious one is you make her a big burn build

[stoic fjord]

like how shit is this

I assume it's too light on burn'

[stoic fjord]

that's probably what I wanna go for

[lean fjord]

another option is to just use her for Smoke, and deal Burn through passives and use her for her unique EGO pages

[stoic fjord]

I'm confident enough in the keypages, I just want better combat cards

[lean fjord]

I think you're a bit too heavy on the high cost cards for how much econ you have there

[stoic fjord]

gotcha

[stoic fjord]

what's a good xiao burn build?

[dusty sigil]

Unironically, I’d say get rid of one of the frontal assaults and replace it with a will of the prescript

You don’t have to commit to singleton

But like, if you already have all but 1 single card

Might as well add in a will of the prescript

Also replace the other frontal assault with multislash

Because at that point, might also grab that

[stoic fjord]

how's this look?

It’s simple to accept the Index. However, an Ego must come from the depth of your own heart, not from an external source. So it should be impossible for an egotist to be an index proxy yet

[stoic fjord]

@hyojin_en

[cloud wadi]

From Carmen’s description, to be an egotist and an index proxy

Your mind must be so insane

That your thoughts and index’ Will must be one and the same

[stoic fjord]

Sora is probably top 3 most deranged people in the City

[cloud wadi]

So Sora is basically a personification of the Will of the Prescript

Which is why Don in her uptie often wants to do what her prescripts tell her to do before she gets it

And is frustrated by the delay

[ebon forge]

I gotta wonder if the prescripts ever just tell someone shit like, “flirt with the girl you have a huge crush on” and they just get to live a happy life (until their brutal murder 37 days later or something)

PRESCRIPT IS CALLING. . .

[split beacon]

Okay thinking about Rien some more

I think his wordplay gimmick is a lot more important than we realize

• he seems to understand language as a weapon as well as a tool for getting what you want, which is important considering his job is to interpret and carry out Prescripts, implying he’s a master at twisting the language of the Prescript to his benefit (and that’s why he’s the scariest Index agent we’ve seen)
• Gebura’s Courage is coming up and Gebura is the Sefira of what floor again?

[atomic steeple]

So, mountain of smiling bodies seems like it requires sustains to fight. That's a lotta damage

[split beacon]

yeah you want healing

oh also why the fuck ain't Rien got an Index cloak

not even a short one like a Proselyte

[gentle mulch]

he has his own proxy is something someone brought up

my crack theory is that he gets the prescripts, he sends a different prescript to the pager that just works out

to fulfill the first prescript and something something for himself

[split beacon]

I guess it would answer what the Proxy is a proxy of

[cloud wadi]

Yeah I suspect ||bloodfiends just have self cleaning ability too||

Just roll blood over their body to remove grime and dirt

And blood can just be absorbed through their skin

I’m getting the impression

That Nursefathers are|| also taking on the role of Yoshihide in the original work||

As a ||father figure who’s villainized by the narrative, wanting his daughter back||

There’s actual evidence for this

||Yoshihide is working for Lord Horikawa. It’s implied that LCA knew and allowed the attack on LCE to happen||

It’s possible that ||LCA and Nursefathers have some kind of deal||

Especially since ||Nursefathers somehow know how to use Wayfare Corp tech||

Something we know ||From Saude that only a few people do||

||udjat Outis suggests a prescript told them how, but we also saw Thumb nursefather operate it||

[ebon forge]

||Hmmm, in which case, then Sora being the Owl would fit perfectly||

[cloud wadi]

I think ||Hohenheim is the owl||

[ebon forge]

Yeah, that also tracks

But tracks best if you assume ||Iori will make an appearance||

Makes sense though, given Leviathan

[cloud wadi]

I think ||Ring nursefather is gonna let him peck at Albina for artistic purposes||

[ebon forge]

||Same||

||Tbh though Hoheiheim is awfully tame of a person, normally||

||Shock centipede is about survival, and his distortion…||

[keen palm]

Iori is the only one who really fits the bill for the initial reason Valencia was even able to show up

[ebon forge]

mmm

[keen palm]

Someone from Vergilius past that would attack him or he would attack on sight and be able to significantly wound him without dying

Like thats One Person we know of

[sudden arch]

||we haven't heard anything from the bozo trio since the intro. Wolf and co||

[cloud wadi]

Vergil was notably ||wounded/tired from a limbus company operation before meeting by valencina||

A noted direct competitor to limbus company that can pose a threat to a color would be, yes

||Iori||

[ebon forge]

So he’s the owl and the snake is literal

It wasnt the operation

Ahhh I see

[stoic fjord]

I feel like this interaction would be unique to Lei Heng and Valencina, because they're maybe the only two thumb members who do not care about etiquette beyond what's absolutely required for their superiors

[fickle crown]

Valencia was then found reenacting the 5 minutes and 30 seconds of pain the next day she did this because Lei Heng laced his shit with enough laxatives to kill an elephant

[dusty sigil]

Honestly, I’m not even sure Valencia cares about what’s required lol

Maybe it’s just due to her, semi exile into the house of spiders

But she was shit talking Vergilius

oh yeah true

[dusty sigil]

Who absolutely outranks her in the city’s hierarchy

[stoic fjord]

it's probably unlikely that she's even interacting much with like, Thumb hierarchy anyways

[dusty sigil]

Lei Heng is still giving courtesy to those who outrank him at least

[stoic fjord]

||hrmmm... Jia Qiu might not be the Jade Qilin then... Lei Heng didn't seem to act like Jia Qiu outranked him||

[dusty sigil]

Yah, it seems like the house of spiders nursefathers are sorta, exempt from a lot of the normal rules of their fingers

[stoic fjord]

it's interesting

[dusty sigil]

I mean, he was still himself but he never actually insulted Jia Qiu when talking to him

I think because his personality is sorta, naturally associated with impoliteness a lot of what he says could come off that way but his actual words were kinda neutral towards him

[stoic fjord]

true

though with the examples of the Thumb we saw in Ruina, it seemed to moreso be outright deference to superiors

though also I imagine that's moreso like, classic thumb members, which Lei Heng is not quite that

anyways I just wanna see Thumb members with guns again so we can get more ammo IDs please

||read the passives. They tell you what part to target to disable most of her mechanics||

[gentle mulch]

fight guide spoilers ||work those legs until they fall!||

in general it seems like PJM wants us to lean more towards like

thinking about what attacks to let unopposed instead of clashing everything

[vagrant dove]

Yeah I do appreciate those additional calculations this canto's enemies seem to want you to make

It fits the tone of fighting a superior force very well imo

Even if some can be a bit annoying on first playthrough (the apple)

[wild mango]

when the limbus gamer doesnt read

[vagrant dove]

Horrified (and excited) to see what they'll throw at us in pt 3

[gentle mulch]

it does feel like fighting more on ruina rules too which i looove

[wild mango]

I beat it btw, ||kill the legs first, then it's cake||

unrelated ||YOOOO AENG DU GOT HIRED FUCK YEAH||

(not made by me btw)

[stoic fjord]

it'd be so fucking funny if Kim just still looked distorted

like

he's fine, just looks like that forever now

[gentle mulch]

I would love that actually

just indistinguishable from before

[stoic fjord]

Glowing blue eye and everything

[stoic fjord]

Praying he gets some proper gear instead of genuinely just normal fucking metal sword

[gentle mulch]

Ezra: btw here's a cool sword

[stoic fjord]

Bro was using starter equipment he needs an upgrade

[stoic fjord]

He's gotta use it and like. Genuinely handle that shit flawlessly

[golden meadow]

cuts to thumb members running away in fear
Kim: "GO AHEAD, WIN THE CLASH! WIN THE CLASH YOU FOOLS!"

[stoic fjord]

Bro loses a clash and the battle music changes to his like Gebura E.G.O activation in LoR

[golden meadow]

i hope we also get him as an ally in fights

[keen palm]

KIM THE THUMB ARE BURN/TREMOR

YOU ARE COUNTERED BY BURN TREMOR KIM

THEY HAVE UNBREKABLE COINS THEY DON'T NEED TO WIN CLASHES

[golden meadow]

[stoic fjord]

boneclaiming does like 800 AoE damage and his stagger bar is like halfway down his 4000 HP he'll be fine

[keen palm]

You say that and yet I have litterally not once seen him use it in my time playing

[split beacon]

TCTB?

[keen palm]

ya

[golden meadow]

how long have you been playing?

[keen palm]

that's a good question

[stoic fjord]

I experienced it once and lost the fight next turn

but yeah fair enough

[keen palm]

Since Canto 7 I think

[split beacon]

that's a shame, the animation is really cool

I should like

go back and lose the fight with Sora so I can see her Mang of Immanent Yearning attack animation

also cool note: the attack name "Procuration: Annihilation - Mang of Immanent Yearning" does not contain a typo

[gentle mulch]

an animation gallery for enemies you've fought would be so nice

[split beacon]

it's a direct reference to how Sora's EGO is symbolic of the unity between her will and the Prescript

"immanent yearning" meaning that the Will of the Prescript is immanent to Sora's personal desires, i.e. that the will of the prescript naturally arises from her desires

[gentle mulch]

rien you asshole she's a prescript generator solely for you

[split beacon]

I kinda think Rien’s pager just regularly sends her garbled nonsense and the “ciphers” are just random interpretation like how the looms work.

[stoic fjord]

Price of Silence is so fucking evil

[dusty sigil]

Kim will always be the strongest person to me because he was the first time I was hard stuck on something in this game

ignore how I only had a sinking team at the time

[golden meadow]

you didn't get stuck on ricardo?

[split beacon]

Yo it’s me Roland from Library of Ruina on the Nintendo Switch

[lean fjord]

Price doesn't copy passives IIRC, so through Power passives you should generally still win clashes

and then it's mostly just putting in pages quickly

you can also give Hokma a weak keypage, and exploit its weakness with the rest of your decks

[split beacon]

can you imagine doing price on console

[dusty sigil]

Nah, he took me like 2 tries

[golden meadow]

Damn

[lean fjord]

also IIRC it only spawns one ghost thing per turn at first?

if you can just consistently kill one every turn, it doesn't really do much
and you outnumber it

[stoic fjord]

dude it's fucking Hokma what power passives

also wait does it specifically steal from Hokma or what

like

[lean fjord]

it takes the resistances of Hokma's keypage

[stoic fjord]

would it be a disastrous idea to run clone rapid gashes BHK

[stoic fjord]

ohhhhh ok

[lean fjord]

so give Hokma a keypage with fatal weakness to a type

and then do that type with the rest of your builds

[stoic fjord]

I'm thinking slash

or pierce

[lean fjord]

and just onesided the Remnants as much as you can and they should just die

[stoic fjord]

though with pierce I would have to hard spec into it

because the main one would be stilleto which fucks over every other dice type

[lean fjord]

you can just do like Pierce PT, Allen and something

give Hokma the pierce fatal Rat page, with some good pierce combat pages

[stoic fjord]

how do more people have Impuritas than have beat Xiao

how does that work

[stoic fjord]

Mang-chi?

[lean fjord]

yeh

[stoic fjord]

why would i want to give him good pierce combat pages again

[lean fjord]

so he can still clash and fight

[stoic fjord]

oh yeah fair enough

okay this is way easier lmao

[gentle mulch]

i hope we get an ID that constantly bickers with another ID

[stoic fjord]

how the fuck do I do Blue Star

[gentle mulch]

stagger people

badly

[stoic fjord]

oh wait I just need to stagger the worshippers

and not die

[split beacon]

yes

[stoic fjord]

fucking DINGGGGGG

DINGGGGGGGG

DINGGGGGGGGGGGG

I KNOW YOU HIT A DIE PLEASE STOP

[uneven canopy]

ding ding ding ding ding

[lean fjord]

Blue Star is just stagger people and don't get staggered yourself yeah

[vagrant dove]

YuRia save this man, give him the coolest fucking sword please

(I know she's ||the only member of Moses' crew not to show up in Linbus yet, but we can hope)||

[uneven canopy]

||i wonder if she's still a bear||

[stoic fjord]

first try

this fight was lowkey relaxing after all of everyone else's bullshit

[uneven canopy]

||i wonder if she got herself a robot suit to pilot as a bear||

[wild mango]

||im getting fucked up by this moth||

[vagrant dove]

||that'd be cool as fuck honestly||

[gentle mulch]

||Wings, ignore body||

[vagrant dove]

Yeah a lot of the ||abno fights you've gotta focus on specific parts to prevent them using their gimmick||

||esp with four sinners||

||often best to take your chances with an EGO clash against the moth's nuke skill, since winning that can help regulate the burn situation if things get really bad. follow the general strat of attacking the wings tho||

[stoic fjord]

okay

Hokma floor realization time

before I even finish Judgement Bird

because that prick is fucking impossible

[eternal gull]

that is actually sad jeez

[eternal gull]

my sinners are as optimal as my patience

[stoic fjord]

oh god

[stoic fjord]

||we're starting with Whitenight apostles||

[vagrant dove]

I tend to use the ones I find cool and have the patience to grind for

[eternal gull]

I mean their attacks

I literally only got my first non base EGO today

I do not have any ids to be building teams with

I have the crush team and that it is
-# I do have index don though so she is carrying me through canto 3 and 4

[vagrant dove]

I currently have a pitiful selection of egos and like

1 team

[eternal gull]

mine isnt even pitiful its non existant

How do you even grind xp bro

https://tenor.com/view/thanos-memoji-gif-23490017

[vagrant dove]

Luxcavations

The only way to get exp tickets regularly (there's also evens, the battlepass and the refraction railway)

[eternal gull]

my poor enkaphalin

[vagrant dove]

Yeah

[eternal gull]

tbh I only do them when I cant progress on the next story mission

so usually half way through a story dungeon

[vagrant dove]

P. much the same way I do things

Since obvs story content is preferred to just grinding and pressing the winrate button

[eternal gull]

yeah 😭

and whenever I do mirror dungeons it genuinely takes years off my lifespan

although thats really only for the id's so could be worse

-# I just want index proselyte faust xd

[vagrant dove]

I don't have her yet unfortunately

I have InDon and Udjat Outis

But the gacha does not want my ass to get her

[eternal gull]

fellow inDon haver 💪

[eternal gull]

real

tbh I dont want her for any reason I just like the index aesthetic

[vagrant dove]

Valid

My team is just tremor with the basic theme being "i like their vibe"

[eternal gull]

my team is just CRUSH

-# PREPARE THYSELF
-# THY END IS NOW

[vagrant dove]

https://tenor.com/view/ultra-kill-minos-prime-minos-free-at-gif-26917154

[stoic fjord]

yo

Hokma floor realization

is

kind of hard

[split beacon]

you just gotta lock in and maybe use Kizuna

[keen palm]

Hokma balls

Hoktua

[eternal gull]

hoks ma rock at you

[wild mango]

Wait, ||where the fuck has hong Lu been this entire canto?||

||has he not had a single line of dialogue?||

[neat cedar]

||not really, though that's not too uncommon for sinners right after their canto||

[keen palm]

He has had lines

[stoic fjord]

what

[split beacon]

Shi Association passive

When an ally is slain, permanently gain 1 Strength

[stoic fjord]

ohhhhhh

okay yeah makes sense

hrm

[lean fjord]

Hokma realization should be pretty by the numbers mostly

just prepare for losing two nuggets

[stoic fjord]

tbh it's pretty much just that I don't actually know what I'm supposed to do

like I assume stagger all apostles

but then like

Paradise Lost has 650 HP and I do piss poor damage

[split beacon]

Kill the main boss as much as you can while its defenses are down

It loses its damage resistance when you down the Apostles

[stoic fjord]

ohhhh okay

[stoic fjord]

like, all of them?

[split beacon]

yes

[bronze zephyr]

We got the last season preview before caposault right?

[wild mango]

||ugh, the pinky nursefather is tough||

[bronze zephyr]

Yeah so we should get s7’s soon after the canto ends..hopefully..maybe..

[wild mango]

||but i get that i need to clash with silent regard with the units that rolled higher on speed to make her other stuff easier to clash with its just tough. i keep loosing against her big aoe skill and that means a reset basically||

[stoic fjord]

finished floor of religion realization

[wild mango]

||this is wei but worse. am i missing something?||

[stoic fjord]

okay yeah how do I do Judgement Bird

[fluid whale]

are you on level 60 with all 7 deployed units, Punch?

the big thing is that like Ricardo, this is a fight against someone of a higher level who is not holding back, so the offense-defense level difference is going to mean a lot more

[split beacon]

other than doing the green skills thing, the main way to find a W in this fight is to manage your SP carefully to make sure you'll have someone who can win the critical clashes

[fluid whale]

And it does help that Ryoshu's passive is fully on against the enemy

there's also some stuff you can do with Clash Counters/Guards; ||because of her passive meaning that she does half damage against defense skill users, you can use that vs. the unbreakables that inflict afterimage||

[split beacon]

-# u/TinyReputation4196

Rodion being a OHKO gambler is so perfect, Ryoshu showing up with the intention of causing unlimited suffering and pain to the community also tracks

after all, F.E.A.R. is a SANGRIA right

[cloud wadi]

She was shit talking the CONSIGLIERE

Even if consiegliere is like, outside usual command structure for mafiosi

She would still be someone in capo di tutti capi’s inner circle

And|| Valencina was shit talking her lmfao||

[stoic fjord]

I hate that stupid fucking child and her friends

[dusty sigil]

Oh shit right yah

Yah she’s absolutely gotta be considered like, outside of the thumb

Shit talking the consigliere is like, execution worthy normally

At the very least the punishment has gotta be more severe then just ripping out their tongue

[uneven canopy]

ough, petty retirement beef

[split beacon]

see

[cloud wadi]

consiegliere is technically a person who’s not part of the mafia. But it means Counsel. Aka, they are mob lawyers

They don’t have any authority within the mafia itself but are in a position of advisor to the big boss

[split beacon]

I really hope we learn more about how the Nursefathers ended up in the House of Spiders lol

[dusty sigil]

That does seem to be part of the set up

At least for the Dihui star

[cloud wadi]

Yeah

And ||valencina||

[uneven canopy]

5 washed up fingers walk into a bar...

[dusty sigil]

The origin of her resentment is that she was stuck raising Ryoshu instead of traveling the world

As befits a member of the pinky

[cloud wadi]

It kinda seems like spider house is like a place of exile where people embarrassing to each finger gets sent to

[split beacon]

I mean what's embarrassing about the nursefathers so far exactly

[uneven canopy]

what's that mean for the apprentices

[dusty sigil]

Yah, other then Valencia’s blatant disregard for courtesy, all of the other nursefathers embody their fingers well

Matthias is the archetypical big brother, the ring nurse father’s lectures on art are in line with the ring, Rien still seems loyal to the prescripts

[split beacon]

Valencina can fight a Color to a standstill, you can't exactly embarrass the Index, Matthias is normal for the Middle, mystery Ring nursefather is practically exemplary and Shiomi Yoru seems like she's just really fucking salty?

[cosmic gorge]

Maybe they show their flaws and hypocrisies?

[cloud wadi]

Maybe Matthias is overly selfish though

[dusty sigil]

So far, the connecting thread for why they left is just, age

[cloud wadi]

Only cares about his interests

Not the interests of the little bros

[split beacon]

yeah its just the unc house

[uneven canopy]

nurseuncs

[dusty sigil]

Matthias said he’s retired, Valencia has a history going back to the smoke war so she’s pretty old probably

Rien’s hair is going white

[cloud wadi]

Yeah

[neat cedar]

Rign father seems to be

either a conspiracybtheorist

[stoic fjord]

I would still argue that Valencina occupying Vergilius is not a merit to her strength in particular due to the fact he was not using anything besides his gladius, and the fact she had a hostage who Vergilius was not going to risk harming

[cloud wadi]

Absent minded

[neat cedar]

||or someone who knows more than theybshould||

[split beacon]

merit to her effectiveness at doing her job though

[cloud wadi]

Saying shit that no ring maestro should say lmfao

[stoic fjord]

True

[cloud wadi]

Still

[dusty sigil]

Yah, the ring maestro referencing the idea of the palm is concerning

[cloud wadi]

Ring nurse father is more insightful than he seems

[neat cedar]

ans for index NF

[split beacon]

sure the ring maestro is fucking weird and fringey but like

[wild mango]

||what the fuck do i do against her turn 4 skill? i win the clash and it still deals 300+ damage||

[split beacon]

isn't that uh

[cloud wadi]

He identifies|| the cause of sinners losing consciousness immediately||

[split beacon]

expected

[dusty sigil]

Yah, based off what Vergilius said I think hostages are well within the “courtesy” of the thumb

If you were good enough, you wouldn’t have been taken hostage anyway

[split beacon]

||Space Rend?||

[bronze zephyr]

Oh I forget did he?

[stoic fjord]

I think mainly I'm wondering about Rien, Matthias, and Shiomi

[cloud wadi]

Yeah

[wild mango]

||yeah||

[dusty sigil]

Yah, he brings up to Hohenheim the idea that the fingers are in fact all one hand

[neat cedar]

||I think Rien is not as dedicated to the prescripts as othrr Index||

[cloud wadi]

He suggests ||if you trace each Finger to its roots you might find a same hand controlling each||

[wild mango]

alright, great

[neat cedar]

||I think he follows them, but his interpretstions are a lot more for his own venefit them that of the index||

[stoic fjord]

Ehhhhh, I doubt it

[wild mango]

great game design kjh

[dusty sigil]

Which like, definitely still a possibility

The highest ranking finger member we have is Kalo still

They’re being very cagey on the high ranking members

[neat cedar]

||I mean aestheticallt, he inverts their color scheme||

[split beacon]

||[On Hit] Consume all Bladetrail -Afterimage- on target and deal (Bladetrail -Afterimage- consumed)% HP damage against each target, respectively||
this is what's deleting you

[neat cedar]

||The Index, even sora, are mainly white with black accents, but he wears an all black suit||

[stoic fjord]

I just kinda doubt it because of how the Index is

[cloud wadi]

And we now know ||Central Branches of fingers exist, which means even the fingers we assumed was decentralized do have kind of a head organization||

[neat cedar]

||I didn't say he doesn't velieve in them||

[dusty sigil]

Yah. I guess whatever branch is located in A B and C Corp

[neat cedar]

||But his conversation withnryoshunis about blending to things together and manipulating language||

||Fpoon or a spork||

[cloud wadi]

Rien is ||very creative in interperingprescripts ||

Yeah

[split beacon]

||you need to cleanse Bladetrail Afterimage by clashing against Phantom Step or Space Rend will just murder your Sinners even on a clash win||

[stoic fjord]

True...

[cloud wadi]

Even ||Sora, while an avatar of the will of the index, is a very flexible person||

She’s always ||trying to interpret her prescripts in a way that causes least damage||

[split beacon]

yeah I think the thing about Rien is that he isn't unfaithful or anything

||he's just mastered the art of twisting Prescripts to mean whatever he wants them to mean. Fpoon.||

||Your words were very "effective".||

[neat cedar]

||And that is absolutely something thatz while the index can use could lead to exile||

[cloud wadi]

She got a prescript to ||help her family, and instead of helping them by killing their enemies, interpreted it to be “well I’ll just be in the local area and help them out if absolutely necessary.”||

[split beacon]

||He clearly has the mindset of someone who regards language as a tool and a weapon rather than a means of communicating with right and wrong interpretations||

[neat cedar]

||I also am.wondering if the prescripts Sora gets are evn genuine||

[dusty sigil]

||I still think that skill is the reason for Ryoshu to use sangria||

[split beacon]

oh its definitely related

[dusty sigil]

||Acronyms can’t be changed, they just mean what they mean||

[neat cedar]

||Vecause from index don, we ge that they come from the Nurse father through the pager||

[split beacon]

||also the fact that this is the Gebura Canto and Gebura is the Patron Librarian of the Floor of Language||

[cloud wadi]

It might not. ||She claims it comes “ciphered.” We haven’t seen a ciphered prescript before||

[dusty sigil]

Yah

[neat cedar]

||Ciphered and through a device rather rhan a pape cloth||

[cloud wadi]

She might legit ||just see a random string of letters that she then imbues meaning to ||

[split beacon]

||tbh I suspect that the cipher is meaningless and that it's all wordplay and seeing things where there isn't anything||

[cloud wadi]

Yeah

[neat cedar]

||Like given the religious nature of the prescrips coming from the weavers, it seems odd to change the delivery method so drastically||

[split beacon]

but also, the Index ID stories imply you can get Prescripts in all sorts of mediums, not just paper slips like the ones Yan delivers

[neat cedar]

maybe

i still.thin

therr is something up with him and his connection to the index

and also i think there is definitely a reason why the first limbus only intro we get to the indez

is Faust dealing with a guy making phony prescripts

[dusty sigil]

Imagine one of the giant machines that gives out prescripts via one of those duck toys filled with water typing on a keyboard

[cloud wadi]

Like she sees STAR GAZE MIRROR BUG and assumes it must refer to the party

…

[neat cedar]

might juat be a referemce

but it seems

[cloud wadi]

Okay yeah that’s fair enough

[neat cedar]

relevant

[cloud wadi]

But still

[split beacon]

I reckon we'll find out the deeper secrets next week when we assuredly get Index Nursefather Yi Sang

[uneven canopy]

||oh the safe was time-locked, interesting||

[neat cedar]

indeed

[cloud wadi]

I’ve come to find that I really love gimmicky mini game ids like index and degenerate gambler Ishmael

I need to build a gambling team

[stoic fjord]

I've been thinking of designing an ammo gimmick ID that uses a defense skill to load different types of bullets and fire them

How'd you get the different types I'm not sure yet, but it'd be based partially on choice and partially on random chance

[neat cedar]

||abother oddity with sora's prescripts: they're very simple||

[wild mango]

||GOD||

||yeah, that was as hard as wei||

[vagrant dove]

Jeongmael is really fun

I think it's partially the sfx

Some real neuron activation there

[gentle mulch]

KOI KOI

👏 👏 👏 👏 ⚔️ 👏

[ebon forge]

last used sin affinity

[vagrant dove]

There's something about it that just hits

It's like the LOR finger snap for me

[bronze zephyr]

Every day I lament garden of thorns Gregor didn’t have better sin mechanics

[gentle mulch]

PJM likes making soundbyte cocaine

[vagrant dove]

Which I cannot get out of my head, Angela please-

[vagrant dove]

Totally, yeah

I think it's a part of what makes their battles good that isn't talked about enough

[gentle mulch]

multi attack weight sfx on staggered enemies is like ogugheuhheughugguhugggn nn

[stoic fjord]

True

Could have 4 different sin affinities, and like uhhhhh

[wild mango]

||HOENHEIM IS USING BIG BIRD GEAR???||

||what a god||

[stoic fjord]

Maybe the ammos buff the different skills enough that you can keep using S1s without them sucking ass if you get into a good rhythm with your skill rotation

[vagrant dove]

||yeah he's busting out the big guns||

||related: i've talked about this before, but that scene with marton still gets me||

[stoic fjord]

Hrmmm

Could also have it be based on team sin affinities

And each one queues up a set of bullets to load with the defense skill, maybe like... 6 bullets?

Could be kinda neat to have them be an ID that can generally fit onto most statuses though not really excelling at any particular status

[gentle mulch]

okay next week. next week for sure ill be able to get shards

FINALLY

[stoic fjord]

Triple status....

The bullets determine which status they count for ig

[vagrant dove]

This reminds me I haven't been doing my grinding as I should be, other games have drawn my limited (i have audhd) attention span away 🙏

[wild mango]

||UGHHHHHHHHHHHHH I CANT WAIT||

[stoic fjord]

Ridiculously overcomplicated but I think jt would be fun

[gentle mulch]

i usually just uhh

put on a video or something during md grinds

[neat cedar]

just finished act 2?

[vagrant dove]

Need to add the subway surfers gameplay footage in one corner of my screen /j

[wild mango]

yeah

[gentle mulch]

complicated is the name of the game here

[gentle mulch]

thats why you get two monitors!

(has only one monitor)

[keen palm]

Important is that Vergilus was a color before he got Ego

[vagrant dove]

I have a gaming laptop, so one monitor for me

[keen palm]

So she is still stalling a color by herself

[stoic fjord]

okay yeah fair

[stoic fjord]

fr? was it also before Mang?

[keen palm]

Yes

[neat cedar]

yerp

[gentle mulch]

yea

[stoic fjord]

crazy

[keen palm]

Valencia is also not going all out either

[neat cedar]

and important note

she is als9

[gentle mulch]

he got ego and mang in one operation

[keen palm]

Her goal was to stall

[neat cedar]

not.going all.out eithrr

[keen palm]

Jinx

[stoic fjord]

also true

[vagrant dove]

Yeah Valencina's playing smart instead of directly clashing him, for obvious reasons

Since he probably can't use his full power w/o risking charon, considering how close quarters the arena for their fight is

[wild mango]

||is verg going on the operation?||

[gentle mulch]

also if ryoshu wasnt in so much shock i bet she'd comment like "this plan is going to lead to a lot of us dying lol"

[wild mango]

||or is he forced to sit back||

||they gave back charon right?||

[keen palm]

She did yeah

[vagrant dove]

I still think ||the operation|| is going to end badly, one way or another

[bronze zephyr]

I want Charon screentime, ||despite being a hostage she herself wasn’t on screen much
Can the next intervallo be a Charon intervallo plz and thx kjh||

[gentle mulch]

most definitely

[split beacon]

she was presumably under Valencina's arm like a sack of potatos

[bronze zephyr]

Yeah lol

[stoic fjord]

||"Spider Pyre" is not a name that evokes good things in this context||

[keen palm]

I do want this Canto to be a bad end tbh

[gentle mulch]

LCE is joining the operation with basic combat training and the injured. LCD's newest hire lost both her fucking arms

[keen palm]

We've had it too good for too long

[split beacon]

It'll be interesting

[stoic fjord]

||BHK will clutch up||

trust

[gentle mulch]

the standouts are an unsabotaged LCA, LCB (just because of revives), and DISTORTED BLADE KIM MY GOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT

[vagrant dove]

Canto 6 ended tragically, Canto 7 ended pretty bittersweetly, canto 8 i think is the only good ending we got

Time to get back to our regularly scheduled programming after helping xichun (suffering)

[gentle mulch]

LCD has a lot of trouble with the nursefather levels, too it seems

[wild mango]

||wait, kim is going???||

[uneven canopy]

||cmon jamila, don't fail us now||

[vagrant dove]

||yeah he's mentioned as an LCD member||

[wild mango]

||is vergilius going?||

[vagrant dove]

||yeah||

[wild mango]

||idk how they deal with TWO ENTIRE COLOR FIXERS||

[gentle mulch]

||Two colors and like 5 alphabet names for the LC departments||

[keen palm]

I mean they Fingers deal with it by also being that strong

[gentle mulch]

||they also have home field advantage, the nursefathers||

[stoic fjord]

||0% chance Alyssa survives this raid||

[vagrant dove]

||the nursefathers have presumably fucked with the house to make the terrain work to their advantage||

[wild mango]

||and moses seems pretty strong too||

[atomic steeple]

Ryoshu will likely ||burn up her memories of her kid to cut the final boss||

[cloud wadi]

Vergil mentions ||that just last week he was being grilled over importance of not intervening, but that today company is pretending as if that meeting never even happened||

[vagrant dove]

||come into my parlour, said the spider to the fly, ect||

[wild mango]

oh

||and im assume dhes allowed to fight if charon is in danger||

[stoic fjord]

||Vespa is a new color fixer and notably was mostly going clash for clash with Matthias, iirc||

[bronze zephyr]

||LCA should do better this time since they’re presumably prepping for this mission better,
LCB is LCB, hopefully we can take
LCD has a color and a peak strategist
LCE. Well just have to hope Big Bird EGO carries Hohenheim to the tier of a nursefather

Even if every department can take out a single nursefather that still leaves a whole nursefather and whoever else is at the house||

[gentle mulch]

||i would be so hyped if the ending was that Ryoshu was willing to forget her kid to save her and araya had to like. slowly refresh her on who she is Gravity Falls style||

[cloud wadi]

You know how crazy it is

[vagrant dove]

||gravity falls mentioned, peak||

||Hohenheim actually has Lamp and Diffraction, so he's got at least 3 in all of the 4 lob corp stats, I am willing to assume more due to the different form of the Lamp weapon and how LCE E.G.O gear just. is.||

[neat cedar]

||Yeeeeerp||

[vagrant dove]

||more survivors guilt for the poor guy||

[gentle mulch]

||foreshadowed with LCE Yi sang it's peak it's the worst it could ever happen||

[bronze zephyr]

||oh is that what his crossbow is??||

[cloud wadi]

Moses can bind even ||stars of the city for significant length of time. That plan would’ve worked if not for moonstones||

[wild mango]

||alyssa is 100% going to blow up, maybe hoenheim survives||

[bronze zephyr]

||hohenheim drives me crazy||

[stoic fjord]

||It has the same flame as the Lamp hammer, so I'm willing to assume||

[neat cedar]

||Ye.||

[gentle mulch]

||LCB Check Up event and it's two suicide Identities like they had death flags from the start||

[vagrant dove]

||if Alyssa's death flags go off next part I'm gonna be so fucking sad||

[gentle mulch]

||not to mention AEDD and survivor's guilt lol||

[vagrant dove]

||THIS HAPPENED TWICE TO HIM||

[cloud wadi]

She’s a moth heading towards a PYRE

[gentle mulch]

||i hate to say it i really do but if alyssa is on that raid it's gonna be a third time.||

[stoic fjord]

||Dude her ID literally fucking kills itself in battle and is a flaming moth heading towards an operation called the Spider Pyre. neither of those are good for moths.||

[vagrant dove]

||i know, but the hopium endures||

[stoic fjord]

||like genuinely this isn't even a death flag anymore, it's a fucking death parade march||

[neat cedar]

||Third time's the charm :^)||

||LCE fansninnshambles||

[atomic steeple]

||People have also considered the crossbow might be indicant's trial from burning duchess||

[stoic fjord]

||ooo, also true||

||either way he's got either 2 or 3 WAW E.G.O gears equipped, bro is ready to wage war||

[cloud wadi]

It’s fine ||to mix and match ego gear after all||

[uneven canopy]

||would be cool if we got more on the no show Abnos ||

[vagrant dove]

hohenheim ||might be one of my favourite side characters in general because behind the idgafer facade is someone who does care a lot about the people who work under him - see him trying to recognise the faces in the ring's "artwork" in part 1, for example||

[split beacon]

||He's at minimum slinging Lamp and Diffraction at the same time||

[vagrant dove]

||so i am genuinely really curious to see how his subplot unfolds||

[atomic steeple]

||Bro is ready to throw down. Mix and matched ego gears to optimize||

[cloud wadi]

Wonder how they are gonna introduce an Aleph

I feel like ||if we are battling stars of the city, alephs can’t be too far behind||

[stoic fjord]

||my guess is that Hohenheim will have a pyrrhic victory and either severely wound or kill the Nurse Ringfather, but that yet more LCE employees will die, Alyssa will sacrifice herself for him, and he will be wracked with guilt for the third time by someone giving up their life for the sake of his||

[atomic steeple]

||Bro is gonna corrode or throw himself to die in battle at this rate||

[vagrant dove]

There's also that bit about ||Hohenheim asking her if she wants to use that ego, so yeah. Yeah...||

||there's still hope.... (lying to himself)||

[stoic fjord]

||I feel like even if that happens, he's gonna survive and going to have to continue to live with his crushing guilt||

[cloud wadi]

That’s what lobcorp was all about

Continue pressing on no matter the weight of sin you pile up

Who are they to judge you

[atomic steeple]

No sacrifice top great

[vagrant dove]

Ayin speechbubble

[atomic steeple]

No mouth to cry suffering

[bronze zephyr]

No buzzsaw spared

[uneven canopy]

https://www.rxddit.com/r/limbuscompany/comments/1qa1rq9/why_dont_we_just_stack_the_sinners_together/

[vagrant dove]

Lobcorp but Ayin has the interior design sensibilites of the Pale King

[stoic fjord]

every single fucking person involved in this canto is going to come out of it miserable

[wild mango]

||yeah, theyve got 5 stars of the city, but weve got TWO COLOR FIXERS, the whole udjat, hoeniem with crazy ego gear, moses, and bamboo hatted kim||

[neat cedar]

hingnlu canto: everyone.lives!!

[stoic fjord]

there's no way things turn out well

[neat cedar]

Ryoshu canto.: oh fuck

[stoic fjord]

especially with just. how the flow works. how all of this works.

[vagrant dove]

Yeah I feel like the lineup of cantos we have is uh

[stoic fjord]

||with the Malkuth glitch manifestation||

[atomic steeple]

Mutually assured maiming

[wild mango]

||yeah things are gonna get fucked up, but theyre gonna get fucked up even more||

[vagrant dove]

Probably full of Bad Things for our cast from here on out

[stoic fjord]

||with the name being Spider Pyre. with everything||

[wild mango]

||it's gonna be phyrric||

[stoic fjord]

Meursault, Outis, Faust, possibly Dante

and like

[vagrant dove]

Especially you, Outis

[stoic fjord]

all of it is going to fucking spiritually kill them

[stoic fjord]

nah

especially Faust

like

Outis? yeah, she'll have fucked up shit happen

[ebon forge]

merursault canto has 3 parts and its just dante going

"meursault"

"awaken"

"ego"

[stoic fjord]

but Faust is genuinely going to experience multiversal suffering I think

[ebon forge]

the end

[tiny cave]

Not true
||Charon will not come out miserable because Verg will give her candy||

[stoic fjord]

okay one exception

[atomic steeple]

Charon: vroom vroom
Nursefathers die

[vagrant dove]

True and valid, truly the events of this canto will be a net positive

We just need to swap her into verg's body again like in the last april fools event trust

She uses Mephi to demolish the House of Soiders instantly

My uncle's eighth brother works at PM and told me this

[neat cedar]

my bet

[wild mango]

god, im so ready to hear the new milli song

[neat cedar]

aleph either sault.ormfaust canto

fir nothing there

[cloud wadi]

I like how Sora ||has to chant “DESTINY UNLOCK TRANSCEND!” To transform like she’s a magical girl or smth||

[vagrant dove]

If it's a lullaby I'm gonna just be sitting there in silence for a bit i cannot lie

[neat cedar]

it's gunna hurt

[stoic fjord]

Mili is going to cook up something so deeply diabolical and evil that we will all take a week of mourning to process part 3 of Canto 9

[uneven canopy]

we're fuuuuuuuuuuucked

[cloud wadi]

Odds of ||Sora death anyways is about 70% methinks||

[stoic fjord]

the moment i start hearing Mili I know shit's gonna hurt so so so fucking bad

[wild mango]

||oh, ALL of the apprentices are cooked||

[cloud wadi]

We usually only get ||ids of people whose stories are done||

[wild mango]

||maybe one or two nursefathers die||

[vagrant dove]

I think the apprentice's days may be numbered yeah

[bronze zephyr]

Albinaaaaaa

[atomic steeple]

Please ryoshu save them

[bronze zephyr]

||SURLEY THIS MEANS THE GLORIOUS RETURN OF XUE PAN||

[wild mango]

||hmmmmmmmmmm||

[stoic fjord]

given the spider's thread thing

I think it's like

[vagrant dove]

Xue pan id for hongler in canto 16 trust

[stoic fjord]

god I don't wanna predict anything ever again

after fucking

"All your theories are wrong. Goodbye." with part 2 😭
