B-Brochefant. :c

I finally ran the vault as only a newbie tank can. And my group said "hey brace yourself for what comes next."

Ah...welcome to the community trauma :'>

spoony bard
it hits different when you play a healer main there
Kaysper
I thought I took some screenshots but befitting the occasion, they have vanished.
E.S. Levi
The fandom as a whole is still grieving this man.
Kaysper
though I'm now unlocking Dark Knight on the basis of "well I guess the entire church needs to die now."
Kaysper
"BUT ESPECIALLY YOU, MISTER JAVELIN THROWER."
E.S. Levi
My WoL picked up PLD after the Vault, because she wanted to take up Haurchefant's blade and use it to avenge him :-D
spoony bard
i picked up DRK even though i don't consider it canon for my WoL in RP
spoony bard
all the nasty vengeance feelings just got fed into DRG and the influence from the Eye
E.S. Levi
Meanwhile, DRK IS canon for my WoL, while DRG isn't, because DRG would've given her a pre-existing bias against the Dravanians and being a formerly mostly uninvolved party in the Dragonsong War was a significant factor in the lessons she learned from it.
E.S. Levi
(She was...very murder-y toward Garleans after the slaughter at the Waking Sands, and discovering the cycle of vengeance behind the war with the Dravanians...well, let's just say she saw an uncomfortable amount of herself in Nidhogg.)
Kaysper
y'know. maybe I'll pick up Paladin too.
Kaysper
WHERE THERE IS LIGHT, THERE IS DARKNESS and all that.

(what, you all thought I'd make a KH reference when I could go for Skies of Arcadia instead?)
Kaysper
I think gunbreaker is my fav tank still because... it's 3 DPS in a trenchcoat, and getting to go SNICKITY-BOOM is fun. But people keep saying "do the Dark Knight quest line, it's the same gal who wrote Shadow Bringers, do that!" so here I am, doing that now that I have a very valid reason to want to raise some hell in Ishgard.
E.S. Levi
DRK is a great storyline.
E.S. Levi
PLD...is Not.
Kaysper
PLD I mainly want because it has sparkles.
E.S. Levi
There's also a shield glamour you will want.
Kaysper
...............you telling me they stealthed a fire emblem into this game.
Kaysper
did they do that somehow.
E.S. Levi
No, but there IS a House Fortemps shield glamour item that I have a glamour plate exclusively for.
Kaysper
OKAY. I was having a moment of "...wait. wait did they pull that off?" though to be fair there are plenty of FE cosplays out there, which makes me happy.
E.S. Levi
PLD is the only job that has a shield at high levels, so it's the only job you can use that glamour for beyond level 30.

spoony bard
i know they explained WHY healing magic couldn't have saved him, but the joke is still funny
spoony bard
also, goddamn, look how big giraffe hands are compared to Hyurs
Kaysper
I actually really love hearing that this spear has an actual mechanic in an upcoming boss fite? that it lessens the potency of healing spells?
Kaysper
I just really really love when lore and mechanics get weaved together.
spoony bard
it is mostly relevant in the EX version of that fight, but yes
spoony bard
it basically blocks your aether flow, which means it shuts down your healing factor entirely
spoony bard
because magical healing just speeds up the body's natural healing factor, which requires aether (as all things do lmao)
E.S. Levi
Thus, it's not actually a plot hole that your healer main can't save him.
E.S. Levi
Now, why your healer main didn't cast Esuna on Nanamo as soon as she started choking...
✧ Navigator ✧
That’s easy, no healer in ARR remembers esuna
EsperBot
The debuff icon didn’t have a line over it
Kaysper
...TO BE HONEST THO, POPE GRANDPA HAS A PRETTY GOOD VILLAIN MONOLOGUE.
Kaysper
I'm finally advancing the story and seeing the echo flashback.
Kaysper
And I like that Evil Pope Grandpa has JUST enough rationality and principles to justify some fucked up stuff and conspiracies.
Kaysper
I like that he's not doing it JUST because "mwahaha power good" he's doing it because according to his principles, sins of the fathers need not apply to the following generations, and rather than be punished people should believe in a glorious lie to give them dignity and a will to accept their fates-

Kaysper
............YEAH PRETTY MUCH THAT.
Kaysper
This is good though. I like this. I like this a lot.
Kaysper
Even if I cried when Brochefant's dad cried. That messed me up.
Kaysper
Which of course means that good villain monologue or not, Evil Pope Grandpa is still going down.
