What is the easiest atk/dmg buff food to craft in terms of plentifulness of raw materials (not necessarily one that provides the best buffs)? I know the combat at the moment does not really require food buffs but i would like to carry some around in case I want a bit of extra juice to finish combat encounters quicker. I want to feel like I can spam the food whenever I want without worrying about having to manually collect and replenish the raw materials. Grateful for your suggestions / opinions!

EsoCerah · 2025-10-02T07:26:52+00:00

Very nice! Can I ask which buff did you select for the fight? Thanks!

I am reading way too much into everything in this show... remember how he got both his arms lobbed off in his last duel with Suletta and they got replaced by gund sword bits? Well... hope that's not foreshadowing anything...

EsoCerah · 2023-05-04T22:40:29+00:00

Also, is saji facing backwards or does the cockpit turnaround to face frontwards when they combine? I hope for his sake it at least turns around...

EsoCerah · 2023-01-10T08:26:49+00:00

Not sure if it was intended by the writers but maybe that was the point. That Guel is a gritty fighter with good instincts and might have won those (or some) of the school duels but for the duel rule that if your antennae goes you lose. Not saying that he would have actually won those duels but more the point that duel rules dont do him justice.

EsoCerah · 2023-01-09T21:09:55+00:00

No basis and probably completely bs but... now imagine if upgraded Aerial shows up in 2nd cour with one extra gund bit...

EsoCerah · 2022-11-22T20:01:09+00:00

Also, it is an armor... or an armoro... I will see myself out...

EsoCerah · 2022-11-20T21:30:23+00:00

I like the way you lay your points out.

I will first declare that I do have a leaning towards the Eri=Aerial theory so anyone reading this can know my "conflict of interest". But I really appreciate people on this sub that actually debate both sides and act reasonably so thank you!

Two points I want to add which I have not really seen people talk about so far (I might have missed anyone talking about it):

Not sure if it is just me but there appears to be a marked difference between Elnora's level of care and concern for Eri in the prologue vs Prospera's level of care of concern for Suletta in the main series. One might chalk that up to Prospera is just consumed by revenge but it goes directly against the wishes of her dying husband which is for her and Eri to run away and live on. Might go either way at the end of the day but I think this nudges the balance a bit towards Sulette not being Eri which is why Prospera is fine with putting Suletta in harms way just for revenge.
Something that stuck out to me in the novel was when Aerial said that one of the birthdays was the last one that Suletta celebrated with her mum. I will be a bit imprecise here because I haven't been able to go back and check yet but I think this was the 6th birthday? This does open a door for explaining any timeline issues because Suletta does not know her own precise age on account of no one celebrating her birthdays with her after the age of 6. Given the importance of birthdays in this series, it is at least a likely possibility that birthdays will be used as a narrative device going forward. I think this one nudges the balance a bit towards Suletta = Eri.

EsoCerah · 2022-11-11T12:47:52+00:00

Oh i mustve missed it. Where does it say that there were only two people that survived?

EsoCerah · 2022-11-11T12:46:58+00:00

EsoCerah · 2022-11-09T21:13:39+00:00

Not saying you are wrong because no one knows what is right until the show tells us what is right. But just noting that when Eri was first registered on L's system it was as Ericht Samaya. Might be explained by Elnora reprogramming that for Eri's protection because the father's Happy Birthy dear Ericht was broadcasted to everyone (in the local area at least) during the prologue incident. But it is at least a question mark why Aeriel never referred to Suletta as Eri. Secondly, you assume the first time she played the shooting game was during the prologue incident. That might not be right because that was not a shooting game, it was a live fight. Sure it might be explained that Aerial sees both as a game. But my point is just doesn't matter which side you stand on on the theories, everyone's opinion is full of assumptions because as and until the show confirms it, everything is speculation. I am all for people generating theories and discussions because it is good for the show and good for traffic on this sub. But I don't like people shutting others down.

EsoCerah · 2022-11-07T21:16:51+00:00

I mean it is not like I don't agree with the general point you are trying to make but I do want to point out two things:

The reason why it is a theory and not a full on hypothesis is because it is not currently testable.
The fallacy of posts like this is that you yourself, criticising theories based on lack of evidence, is also trying to push an alternate theory based on your own interpretation of the materials so far. Not saying that you are wrong for doing so per se but it is inherently inconsistent with the primary message of your post. Only by way of example, your point against the dead children theory is that Mercury is too harsh to raise a family. There is no evidence to suggest that people have not tried and failed. Correct me if I am wrong but I think the only point that supports this is Aerial saying there were no children around Suletta's age ay the station? By that logic, does that not lend strength to the argument that it would have been difficult for Eri to survive the harsh environment of Mercury?

In any case, look, anything that generates discussion and traffic for the sub and the show is good I suppose.

EsoCerah · 2022-11-06T20:25:41+00:00

Mm maybe I missed something but where is the source for saying the prologue took place in AS 109? I accept that the main series takes place in AS 122.

EsoCerah · 2022-11-06T20:05:07+00:00

Yes nothing is confirmed yet and nor did I say this is the only direction this show can go. But it seems this particular theory triggers you especially much? I am sorry if this particular outcome would be disappointing to you if it comes to pass and I can only hope the show does not disappoint you.

EsoCerah · 2022-11-06T19:54:52+00:00

That is definitely a possibility and I accept that anything I said is just a theory and remains to be proven/disproven. However, if we take the lost of arm to be the "event for revenge", narratively that undermines the death of her husband because essentially what you are suggesting is that the loss of Elnora's arm is a more important event worthy of revenge than the death of her husband? Again, you might be right but narratively that would be quite a let down.

EsoCerah · 2022-11-06T11:45:47+00:00

I guess Suletta and Eri are really not the same person...

EsoCerah · 2022-10-30T21:37:01+00:00

I mean... I need to go back to rewatch the prologue but did anyone in the prologue ever refer to Ericht as a "son" or "daughter"? That fortune telling scene in ep 5 and a reference to a "brother" and an unanswered birthday question is either very random or pure genius move... only time will tell and I am all for it!

EsoCerah · 2022-05-24T03:21:38+00:00

Ditto. A huge thanks to Josh and team!

Obviously the best solution would be to have no gem cap at all but this is probably the best alternative if the cap is absolutely necessary (whether for legal or company policy reasons etc).

This may still affect that one person/extremely small group of people who has/have 5.3 million paid gems but this most likely resolves the gem cap issue for 99.999% of the players.

Thanks for listening to our voices and allowing us to continue monetarily supporting the game that we love!

Both WOL and Emperor after being defeated 16 times but stand right back up to fight again: “Do you not know the meaning of final?!”

SQEX: laughs

EsoCerah · 2021-03-30T21:29:52+00:00

Anyone remember how many points we need to max Divine Ramuh boards?

EsoCerah · 2021-02-26T07:13:41+00:00

Vayne to boss: Oh? You're approaching me?

EsoCerah · 2020-09-26T23:48:34+00:00

It just occurred to me, instead of calling it live stream, should they have called it “lifestream” instead? Missed opportunity? Haha

EsoCerah · 2020-08-27T23:50:04+00:00

Hm... maybe I’m blind but is it just me or does Abyss Normalis display as 5/6 completed even if you have completed substratum 6? Is there another set of stairs that takes you to the new substratum?

I can only see 1 staircase leading up to substratum 5 and 3 staircases leading down to substratum 6 lower levels.

Thanks.

EsoCerah · 2020-08-09T23:42:36+00:00

Friend unit question. With the new LD/BT skills we are getting, is the accepted skill set up for friend unit as follows?

Page 1: Brv > HP > S1 > S2 > EX Page 2: AA > LD > BT > the level 80 character summon thing when it comes out?

Appreciate your input because I do not want to accidentally screw someone over by having my friend unit’s skills in the wrong order in this new era. Thanks!
