FunkyFjord posted:Hey what is ceruleum, I may have missed this somewhere or just forgot it if its explaoned really early on. It's basically just magical oil. Extremely powerful, extremely extremely explosive. The fact it is found in limited places may or may not yet be a plot point but the entire reason for the Garlean Empire's rise (at least as presented) is that they were a group of non-magic users who were forced to settle in the shittiest place in the land and it just so happened to be full of magic oil. The fact that we now know that the Garleans were basically a big ol' plot makes it seem pretty likely the entire thing was manufactured.

This patch just hit last Tuesday so people reading discussions from Monday might not have gotten to it yet. Yeah, just seems weird thing to do in a thread specifically made so you don't have to do that but not a big deal

thetoughestbean posted:Cid started making weapons again thanks to the Omega raids and the two things he made were a gundam and a pulse that makes ceruleum explode. Jesus Christ, Cid Technically The Gundam was just salvaged and refitted, its an Alagan Weapon. You even broke it in the first place on one of your many dungeon runs. Its the Ultima Warrior from Fractal Hard.

Ultima Weapon has a cockpit, Gaius gets in it when you fight it in Prae, so presumably all these variations do too. I guess the prototype in Mhach is being piloted by one of those zombie black mages

They all seem to have some autonomous mode. It’s not like the Allagans didn’t have AIs and artificial life all over the place.

Cythereal posted:Finished 5.5. I'm expecting the 6.X stuff to be a lot of us helping our friends settle into their new roles now that everything is over and they all keep asking us what we're planning on doing now and our character not really having a good answer. I want a patch or two of us wondering what our place in the world is now, maybe spend some time crashing on the couch at House Fortemps while we find ourselves. Then at the end we meet some adventurers planning an expedition to The New World or wherever and we decide to come along, thinking it'll be a fun little adventure, maybe kill a few monsters and find some treasure before returning home to our friends. Then smash cut to some mysterious figure in the new expansion going "haha, some wild poo poo is about to go down, sure hope no legendary heroes decide to pop up anytime soon!"

Its Rinaldo posted:Not to start an argument but why do people use spoiler tags in the spoiler thread? I thought that was the entire purpose of the thread? I sometimes forget to unbookmark this thread right away after a new patch comes out so I appreciate it for the first day or so. It's probably cool to stop at this point though.

I don't think a specific rule needs to be in place but I think spoilering stuff for a few days is nice, especially since there's multiple avenues of content/story and sometimes might want to discuss MSQ immediately but need a few days to clear Bozja or whatever

It's kind of weird to be spoiling thing in the spoilers thread, especially when there's a main thread already. This thread is ostensibly here to discuss spoilers, it's in the title.

I think Bozja is also a bit of a weird case because it takes significant time investment to complete it as opposed to the couple hours to catch up on the MSQ patches. So someone might wanna talk about MSQ spoilers and speculate on where the main story is going but hasn't had time for Bozja yet.

Yeah, I normally find the use of spoilers here (other than when talking about a non-FFXIV game in the process of discussing FFXIV) to be a bit silly -- there was someone upthread spoilering pre-5.5 stuff, for example -- but I'm in the camp of people who haven't finished Bozja yet despite finishing everything else from the patch, so I appreciate the continued spoiler tags.

Algid posted:Proto-Ultima is a giant cyborg reptoid (Zurvan worshiper race). Don't know how they got him that huge, maybe Sephirot tech? Also I guess he was chosen since the design consideration was mashing up the Ultima Beast and Ultima Warrior and a reptoid looked the most similar to that. Allagans built a lot of robots in the form of their enemies, Kaliya was dragon shaped for example and it was designed to fight dragons. Allag has been depicted as arrogant enough to do something like this to just add insult to injury. "Stop hitting yourself" the weapon.

 Go gently caress yourself, Blizzard, and your stance of ''Eternal genocidal race war is actually a good thing that makes all societies involved stronger and Azeroth would have been destroyed otherwise.'

Yeah it doesn't slow down until the second zone unlocks which is...rank 18 I think? And it didn't start to feel like a grind until the third zone which is...22?

cheetah7071 posted:where's the dragon rep Dragons seem to prefer to work through mortal intermediaries. They may also just be really hard to gather in time. Besides, Vidofnir probably couldn't fit in the room. It does make me wonder, actually, if the Ishgardian superstition that dragons can take human form is real, or just is a misunderstanding based off the Heretic situation.

Why are people using so many spoiler tags in this, the spoiler thread? Edit: - Nevermind, seems someone else already brought it up. Its Rinaldo posted:Not to start an argument but why do people use spoiler tags in the spoiler thread? I thought that was the entire purpose of the thread? ZenMasterBullshit posted:I think it's mostly just for things that are like....immediately new.

Roll credits on Shadowbringers. For the most part, a really good expansion. Most part. Zenos is one of the lamest villains I've ever seen in a video game, and Fandango isn't much better.
