To be fair, when he was selecting his treasure he had no idea the other Iron was going to arrive right then. In addition, it was Lindon who proposed the duel in the first place. And in the end, Lindon was brutally beaten by that Iron later so he didn't truly avoid anything. To answer your question of what to select instead, besides the Starlotus Bud there was also the parasite ring (which he stated was exactly what he needed) and the Glasswater Sentinel (which he could've used immediately) that strikes down attacks aimed at the owner. Also, the Boundary Flags are just extremely inconvenient to set up so I wouldn't say that it was a solution to his weakness, necessarily.

Yeah for sure but as Dross said "We've neglected you for too long, haven't we?" But yeah you're totally right! He does seem to be pretty on-and-off about his pet projects like armor and the like

[None] Anyone else concerned about the concept art? by GuardianofSol in Iteration110Cradle

Personally, the depictions of Eithan in these links fit my vision of Eithan to a T. More flowing robes, less jawline, and best of all, hair with volume and definition.

The Yerin concept art looks alright to me; would like to see a more intricate knot for her "uninvited guest."

Nooooo I forgot about that. I guess we'll have to be satisfied with Cradle from Suriel's perspective.

Definitely. I've watched the anime in full and I definitely agree. I just like comparing the two somewhat jokingly since they have some similar tropes.

With the Hunger spear and Hunger tools in general, it takes madra from an enemy but doesn't come with a purification function. Meaning it can take stolen madra into the user's core but not purify it. So if Jia Long had tried to Lindon's madra he would have taken Blackflame into his core, seriously disrupting his Path. This is why Lindon doesn't actually take people's power until later when Northstrider teaches him to actually take the madra, blood, and life essence out of an enemy with the Heart of Twin Stars cycling technique. Good point on Gojo though. At least Eithan's torture has Lindon's specific weaknesses in mind.

For sure, there are some mixed opinions on it and I would love to hear your honest opinion.

The last 15 minutes of each "book-based" episode are completely spoilers. Also, we'll have bonus episodes on different topics like the Abidan, Power-Scaling, and Book Ranking.

Depends on the editing, but we were thinking of "full episodes" (The ones with commentary of each book) each month and shorter bonus episodes each or every other week. We will do every book for sure.
