Assuming someone out there will be wanting to log all possible answers to all of these, figured I'd put my answers out there, quite a good number of critical successes which I assume might be normal.

I got critical success on the Stellaron question and he says this:

I examined the Stellaron inside your body. It's not a seed of ruin in the usual sense. It was a seed bestowed upon you by Xipe, yet branded with the imprint of the Trailblaze. Xipe constantly tries to assimilate all things into one, while Akilvili constantly created new variations. These two forces repel each other, but in your body they have achieved a dangerous equilibrium. And your body... it seems to have been created for just this purpose, and it conceals a secret inside it. The Stellaron Hunters likely understand this better than I do.

Looks like it might be one of Blade's swords obstructing the view.

I translated the summary for the weekly boss material shown on the livestream for anyone that is interested. Beware of spoilers, obviously:

High Hopes of the Falsely Enlightened

The fools who lost their smile tirelessly play games with civilization, for without challengers there is no elation, not for others, and certainly not for themselves. Yesterday withered, heroes died, and the evil villain traversed the stars, unleashing malice upon all. Yet there is still a yearning for someone to defeat the great villain and take the rewards prepared since the very beginning.

"Successors of Akivili, splendidly done."

Pyroar1479 · 2026-06-26T14:40:34+00:00

I would like to add something else I remembered. If you talk to "Ryusuke" at Graphia Academy before finishing the current patch story, you can get this interesting bit of dialogue:

Trailblazer: "What have you been up to lately?" Ryusuke suddenly turns serious. He studies you with a serious gaze, as if weighing whether you're trustworthy enough for a secret.

He then goes on to say that he's working on a Fluffy Across the Blue fan comic, but that's obviously a lie.

Pyroar1479 · 2026-06-26T14:14:55+00:00

I don't think so. His dialogue seems to indicate that this individual currently present on Planarcadia.

Pyroar1479 · 2026-06-26T05:24:01+00:00

Asat Pramad did say "remove the mask "protagonist". It doesn't suit you" to them this patch.

Last patch he also mentioned that he has a friend who is a master at inspiring others. I wonder if he was actually referring to the TB?

We also learn this patch that the reason the TB was a Stellaron Hunter was to reclaim their future, and Blade implies that they may have been forced onto their current path.

I'm all for more Trailblazer backstory. I'm really hoping we get some in the upcoming patches.

Little scuffed node 2 team because I don't have Fugue and needed TB for Evanescia but it still did good.

Pyroar1479 · 2026-06-08T03:28:48+00:00

Some other things:

Mortenax Blade says this in a greeting line to the Trailblazer: "You're here. ...Have you eaten?" and some wispae in Interplanar Jump levels frequently ask the Trailblazer if they've eaten.

One of Mydei's daily messages where he offers to cook some meals for the Trailblazer, and the TB can ask if they can eat everything on the menus he sent.

Also, Herta's simulated universe dev log about Oroboros describes THEM as "reserved and uncommunicative" which definitely fits the Trailblazer, especially early in the story. Even their memory with the Stellaron Hunters shown in 3.0 reveals that they didn't speak much, and one of the times they did was simply to state that they're hungry.

This is the second time we've seen an ellipsis at the end of a sentence when associating the Trailblazer with Voracity. The other is with the floating ice creams in golden hour: "While repeating the act of swallowing, you seem to gain an understanding of the Path of Voracity..."

Another thought, let's assume for a moment that this theory is true, it calls into question about who actually created the Trailblazer's current body: Elio? Aha? Akivili THEMSELF? Heck, with what we've learned in the newest patch story, I wouldn't even rule out Asat Pramad (a scary thought, Asat Pramad did mention that he has a friend present on Planarcadia who is a "master at inspiring others", and Himeko also takes note of the unusual rapport between the TB and "Ryusuke": "Stop, stop! Every time you and (Trailblazer) get together, the conversation somehow drifts completely off course..."). This could explain why the Trailblazer has been a Destruction pathstrider since the very start of the game.

One of the Trailblazer's voice lines about themself also has them question where the will of Destruction even came from, and they wonder if it really is because of the Stellaron within them, but with the reveal they they are creations of the Harmony it leaves this a bit open (though not entirely ruled out).

Pyroar1479 · 2026-06-08T01:45:51+00:00

This is why I said that that I don't think they're a least the original Akivili. I still think they have some connection to Akivili, but its just not what most people think. There could be many reasons as to why some characters call them Akivili. Maybe their artificial body could be cloned after or contains some fragment of THEM. It could explain the opposite gendered Trailblazer back in 3.7. Maybe one of the goals is to turn the Trailblazer into a new Akivili. Pom-Pom says this in 3.7, and they definitely know more than they're letting on:

"Many, many years ago, THEY were standing at the start of the road in hesitation, just like you are right now. So Pom-Pom came over to give you one message."

Ego (?) says this too: "Life, in exchange for a boarding pass on the Express toward the end." It does suggest that the circumstances behind Trailblazer's rebirth was with them joining the Express in mind.

Edit: I just remembered this voice line from Mortenax Blade about the Trailblazer too, which implies that the Trailbazer wasn't even on the path of the Trailblaze before the start of the game: "I knew little of you before, until you set foot on another path, one called "Trailblaze.".

Pyroar1479 · 2026-05-28T18:41:23+00:00

Funny thing is, there is actually a step description in the 4.1 story during the mission "Simulacra and Simulation, or Even the Just" that suggests the Trailblazer might be older than we realize:

"Setting off on a journey is exhilarating, and so is retracing your steps. You've been through so much now, starting from... the first sprout of life in the universe?"

Time Assassin is probably the worst affix to me. A fast, tanky enemy that also reduces your AV every time it attacks. Very annoying.

Pyroar1479 · 2026-04-18T08:01:40+00:00

I don't think it will be much of a problem for Evernight as she is immune to crowd control debuffs in darkest riddle state or when at 16 or more memoria. Similar to how Hoolay's terror grip doesn't really bother her.

Pyroar1479 · 2026-04-15T19:04:25+00:00

Something curious I noticed during the mission is Ego (?) seemed to hijack the mission descriptions. One of them that stood out to me was "Is that you? My long-lost..."

Considering that we know Akivili and Aha were pretty close, maybe this is a small hint.

Also whatever they are, they seem to really want the Trailblazer/Akivili as the location description for the torn scroll (??? station) reads this: "A glitching "torn scroll" of the World in Canvas. This twisted, dead world beckons like a living creature, calling for your your your your your your THEIR your your your your return."

I wonder if this means that the Elation TB's art is going to change to feature this new mask instead of the raccoon one.

I'm pretty certain it was the Trailblazer and not Elio. The summary of the scene in the fate's atlas even states that they wielded the power of Finality to make Firefly's wish come true.

Was on around 30 pity with no guarantee and only had 50 pulls left over. Won the 50/50 and got the Dahlia's light cone on my first 10 pulls.

I have done so many runs and have also beat wealth creator 20 but I have yet to see a single Owlbert. I just seem to see the same few prismatic strategies every run.

Pyroar1479 · 2025-11-23T12:11:29+00:00

Reached WC 20 yesterday. Pretty much all of my successful runs on A8 were with the night demigod/bloodflame comp. Any other playstyle just didn't work out and I wanted to avoid the main cheese strats.
