The Real Problem With Multi-target Attacks

The Real Problem with multi-target attacks

Link: (Pointing towards two Manectric) "Alright, use Earthquake, Strong Style!

Gliscor: (Screeching his agreement.)

(Gliscor's pincers begin to shine with copper light. He screeches again, and the pincers are now surrounded by a burning orange aura almost too bright to look at. Roaring, Gliscor brings his pincers down to the earth, sending HUGE tremors everywhere. The two Manectric, once eager for combat, try to flee, only to be caught up in the shockwaves.)

Gliscor:(breathing heavily) Gli Gli!! (Turns around but Link is gone)

Gliscor: Gli? Scor? Scor?! (Flies away)

If Gliscor had looked a bit harder, he would've noticed the hand sticking out of the rubble. as it were, however, Link would never use a Multi-target attack for the rest of his life.

Is Melnath's shoulder ROTTING?!

Is Melnath's Shoulder ROTTING?!

It's weird because none of the other Titan remains show muscle tissue. For all intents and purposes, every other Titan is just a rock formation. It's ONLY Gormott that looks like this

So a funny thing happened during my XC2 playthrough...

Before starting the World Tree, I leveled up my party to level 70 because I didn’t want to be constantly harassed by the enemies in there. An unintended consequence is that all the Indoline troops that were supposed to be trying to kill me were completely ignoring me instead since they are all in the high 50s to low 60s. And since I had Zeke in the party, I had a random thought: maybe the in-universe reason they’re not attacking is because they’re scared of him?

I mean, think about it. Zeke has been living at the Praetorium for at least a couple years now, so anybody who lives/works there has probably heard of him and the kinds of shit he can pull. So when Amalthus tells them to go and kill the party, the entire army has a collective moment where they’re all like “ha ha, us, kill ZEKE, that’s a good joke, ha ha - you’re serious aren’t you?”

Furthermore, I like to think that most of the Praetorium has basically adopted Zeke, both in a “yes he’s an idiot, but he’s OUR idiot” sense and in a pseudo-big brother sense. Yes, he can’t step five feet into the Titan pens without being mauled, and nobody is quite sure what to make of his fashion sense, but he also gives great pointers in the training room and picked up the pipe organ on a whim and is shockingly good at it and they would rather not see him dead if they can help it. Not to mention, Zeke is like, one of two, maybe three people that Amalthus shows any kind of real fondness for, so its pretty weird that HE of all people is trying to kill him.

Speaking of Amalthus acting weird, he’s been doing that a lot lately. And not his usual brand of weirdness, the “puts ether in his coffee” weird or the “can hear someone talking shit from opposite ends of a very large room” weird. Now its more like “suddenly has a way-too wide mouth filled with Piranhax teeth” weird or “is caught having a shouting match with nothing” weird. 

(The night after Fan’s funeral, the two guys assigned to guard his room came back with thousand-yard stares. When asked, they said that the moment Amalthus locked the door “he started screaming and ranting about all the things he was gonna do to Jin when he caught him. It was the kinda stuff I feel sick just thinking about. And he kept breaking down into laughing or sobbing or promising Fan that he would avenge her and it went on for HOURS.”

That was just the first of many tales like it.)

When those stories starting making the rounds, many found it a good time to bail and handed in their resignation. Many more were considering the idea before the battle in the skies above, and the order to kill Zeke was their final straw. 

When the Indoline Stars went to commence their assault, several broke formation and flew off in the opposite direction. A closer examination showed that along with their designated rider, most of them were also carrying civilians on their backs.

Angsty Xenoblade 2 au idea- Addam, due in large parts to his recklessness and royal heritage was 'advised' (read, forced-) to resonate with a blade specialising in healing. When Pyra meets Nia 500 years later and supposedly not a Blade, it's an instant double take-
