Will we see Mythic Armor?

Re: Will we see Mythic Armor?

I could see how the "lore" isn't broken w/ ToAU jobs relic armor in Dynamis: As in, since cavernous maws appeared (wotg), you DO see Blue Mages, Corsairs, and Puppetmasters in the past, right? Isn't it the same past that accounts for all the other relic armor? Thus, perhaps the introduction of these jobs to crystal war times, gives enough reason for the relic to appear in Dynamis.

That's the weak reasoning SE wants players to use so they don't have to write it into the story.

Relic Armor was fashioned for the Hydra Corp. Just because ToA Jobs enter the past through the maw doesn't mean they were in that group.

Retcon Punch.

In fact, the way the story's going right now, it should mean that we have averted the:

Time Paradox! Don't Go Changing the Future!

Fall of Garilage Citadel. And yet, the present day one is still destroyed. If its really the past, then apparently we return to these events we undo to fix them and let them run thier original course without our presence. Or we're just experiencing the memories of the past, which means what we're participating in isn't really happening and that COR, BLU and PUPs did not actually participate in the real Crystal War. This is the mess you get into when you write a time travel story.

Re: Will we see Mythic Armor?

My money's on fractured time stream. What we do in the past changes the future, just not our future. Sort of like DBZ. I mean storywise, the timeline has already been altered, and we're not the only ones who have screwed with it. Plenty of characters, on both sides of the war, are working outside the time stream to royally muck things up. Having said that, what we do in the past shouldn't actually affect Dynamis as it in and of itself is an alternate reality timeline.

And as far as I'm concerned, Salvage gear *is* "Mythic" armor.

Re: Will we see Mythic Armor?

And thus BBQ hits the nail on the head as to why I absolutely abhor time travel stories. WotG does have some good story material I won't deny that, but the time travel element irks me to no end.

See: DBZ and Trunks/Cell @_@


EDIT:

Eh it's pretty close, but they are still shared. Mythic Weapons are unique to each job, Salvage gear isn't.

RoTZ Relic Weapons are shared, armor is not.

See, it balances out!

Re: Will we see Mythic Armor?

Yeah but Relic Armor isn't that hot for the most part.

Re: Will we see Mythic Armor?

The whole point of this thread was the line of thinking that we have Af armor and weapons, we have relic armor and weapons we should get Mythic armor to match the weapons. My point is that we pretty much have just that.

Re: Will we see Mythic Armor?

Soo, what's the difference between your Mythic armor, and Relic+1/AF+1?

Some of the Relic+1/AF+1 is totally kickass, some of it is totally craptastic, it's kind of a wash really.

Oh, and as for me, totally pissed off that ToAU relic drops in Dynamis, especially since SE made a big fuss over how the Empire didn't send over any aid whatsoever for the mainlands during the Crystal War.

Now if SE had said that the Empire didn't send over any official aid, but sent in a bunch of adventurers/unofficial aid, like those Bastokan fishermen saving the Empire, then I think that I'd be more ok with it.

They must be some fishermen to get to fish with the Hydra Corps
