I don't even want to see what happens if you gain CHIM outside of a pre-coded system.

Hell I forgot that I'd even unlocked Eureka and how to get in, I couldn't find any record of the unlock quest and I think the ferryman has an incredibly generic name with no marker.

Managed to luck my way into a group that was leveling their buddy up to 50 and knocked the last 5 levels in Pyros in barely any time and also got enough logograms to get up to 30 unlocked. Do you also need to be caught up on the artifact weapon to buy the Elemental sets? Because… I haven’t even started on any of them, I was just laser focused on getting to Pyros ASAP.

The only mount I can think of that might be OSHA-compliant is the Rolling Tankard, since you can stay fully inside it (unlike a lot of other mounts that lack safety harnesses, seatbelts, and/or railings to keep you from falling to your death).

I'm 80% sure the Rolling Tankard has a mechanism to allow the driver to drink the fuel while they're on the go

Load-bearing presumption right here. I haven't played FFXV, but I'd never presume the car has seatbelts until Noctis and company are shown to be wearing them.

It's not meant to be ridden in, it's a portable shrine. Not having a seat for a passenger is by design. What you're thinking of is a palanquin.

As far as I know, yes, you have to complete the relic quests in Anemos and Pagos. For Anemos hopefully you have been holding on to all the Anemos and Protean Crystals you have been getting. Pagos, unfortunately you have some grinding to do.

To get the armor? I'm pretty sure they're separated but you will need various fragments from the zones to upgrade them.

You have to finish a pagos weapon before you get the option to buy elemental armor in pyros, but other than that they're separate. You also need to have made the full 56 logos actions, I think, to upgrade them in hydatos? I'm not certain though.

The armor in Anemos and Pagos is just for if you want dyable versions of AF3 gear. If you want the Elemental armor, you'll need to make 50 different logos actions (later 56) and pay some Pyros and Hydratos Crystals.

Yeah, you have to get all the logos actions to unlock it, which I don't think they actually tell you at any point? The guy just won't sell you the upgrades if you don't have them.

Decided my next job is red mage, it's been sitting at 55 for years. So question, appropriate time to use scatter vs verthunder 2 and veraero 2?

I see scatter has higher potency but doesn't build white and black levels for poo poo, but all three have the same cast time. So just curious of the situation of use of scatter.

scatter has a 5s cast time

They do not have all the same cast time. Verthunder/aero 2 are shorter and therefore you cast them then doublecast into scatter.

You're reading the recast times, Verthunder/aero 2 have 2s cast times, while Scatter is 5s. So use the verspells first then Scatter. Also acceleration buffs Scatter potency.

That said, yeah, Scatter isn't amazing. The upgraded spell Impact has a much higher potency that balances out its lower mana gain better.

Also: get in the habit of learning to leave your mana gauges slightly unbalanced. This is because when you do your spenders, you want to use the finisher spell (Verholy/Verflare) of the color you have less mana in, since that guarantees that you’ll get the buff to be able to cast Verstone/Verfire.

One then the other. When any primal dies, the aether returns to the land. (Bahamut's and Phoenix's aether restored Eorzea after the last Calamity, and summoning primals for the purpose of dispersing their aether is the entire point of Eden.) In Zodiark's case, since it was made of souls and not just free-floating aether, they start getting scrubbed in the sea after you finish Zodiark off. The first time you encounter them, it's still being summoned.

The spoiler thread on EW release was an endlessly cycling argument about who among the major characters and the writers were right or wrong about various actions and philosophical positions. Every time someone finished the MSQ they joined in and it went back to the start.
