Let's not jump to conclusions. Besides, that is bearded rock and a Lv1~ camp. Taking that out of commission next patch will block any new player choosing Limsa as their starting city unable to use guildleves. On top of that, the concepts are for the 2.0 version which certainly =/= 1.22

Like some of the Concept art aka Chimera, and the Big Ogre with a Mallet in his hand, and it came in this patch before 2.0, This is no different. and the Nodes being ripped out from it surface is clearly apart of the Dalamud event..... in anyrate, I can't wait for all this to unfold :D

Edit: Not like there will be many new players in 1.xx anyhow.. :P

You do know that there's a very good chance that these red aethers could just be glitches with the game loading the wrong model/texture, right?
Until we see this more I'm going to assume it's nothing more than that.

I've seen glitches like this happen with the game loading the wrong texture quite a few times (including the common one where Ifrit weapons glow in passive)

Also. Couldn't find the screenshot where the land turned orange near Treespeak :(
Must have deleted it ages ago... or moved it to keep it safe and forgot where >_>

and that's why i'm spending a whole day at Camp Bearded Rock for confirmation, nothing has happened as of yet.

and the guy that posted it also said this:

many players in my linkshell have report of this happening to many areas what could this mean?

---

I've seen a lot of people use the word "many" when referring to only 1 or 2 people so I'm always skepticle on that.
Plus this person and his LS are the only people I've heard of who've seen it.

Maybe it happens in this place at a certain moon Phase something like that.. just like the first time we saw Alfgar, he was rarely seen at first, then after a patch or 2 he was showing up more quickly... well.. maybe this is the same thing.. Only see Red Athers on certain parts of the day ( Moon phases/weather or even Dalamud Clearly shining on the Aether causing it to turn red.

I'm not saying this is real, but Its also realistic to whats happening in the Seventh Umbra Event.. and thats why currently I believe this picture is real. If not.. then Jokes on me :P

Don't get me wrong. I started camping an aetheryte too xD
Just saying it's always a possibility, though I find these kinds of things interesting so I hope it's true :P

The end is nigh....

lolz same here! It nice to have something to do.. even if it is a Rumor... but I just don't fell this is a rumor... Concept Art shows Aether turns red.. out of all the colors of a possible glitch... it turns red... somehow I doubt this is a mere glitch

There's always the possibility of they having added red aether already and it's texture being loaded when it shouldn't.

But I do believe this is a 7th Umbral Era event.

It could possible be that.. but it seems to logical.. but it could be in the game by 1.21 patch.. just maybe not in the game itself... but The probability is on the side of the event.

i thought that this also could be a Bug i also said to my linkshell could be loading the wrong dat file happen a lot but not sure if this is real or not so thanks for using your time to confirm this,.

Also i can say this is in the .dat file one of my members found it in the .dat files.

Well.. if it is in the .dat file of 1.21 then that means they plan to use it in an even tin this patch of sorts... 1.22/1.23.. This is in the .dat file for this Current Version.. So at some point it will happen within the 1.xx patch.

I think i remember seeing this before patch 1.21 in the .dat system but not sure.

The game could load an incorrect texture, but an entirely incorrect .dat doesn't seem right to me, because the code should tell it to load xxx.dat, the only way it could load the wrong one is if the blue aether is for example 22.dat and the red one is 23.dat and the dev typed in 23 instaid of 22 which would cause this, but it would then be happening on everyones client and all the time.

I could be wrong with that because I am not a programmer, I have dabbled in programming so I do know you call up a file by pointing the program at it, I am also aware its not all that simple though lol.

yes and it only happen to a few members at that time who saw the crystal i have not seen it myself but my gf also report that she saw it in LL and two other members also and one of them took that screenshot.

It could be what you said load wrong .dat but should have happen to more people.

Did everyone around the Aether Saw it as Red too, not just your friends... did they happen to tell there linkshells to come see this "Red Aether" If they all saw it that way.. then Its true that's suppose to happen.. if only 1-2 saw it and the other 300 didn't then it was loaded wrong.. I assume that's the only way to test that. :P.

On a more serious note. If the 'Crystal Tower' is something thats buried beneath Mor dhona and gets pulled up because of the proxmity of Dalmund..I would seriously love for SE to give us a cutscene of this happening. The first time you load into Mor dhona, your screen pans out and you watch as the tower splits the ground and comes jutting upwards. So this way you can sort of experience the events, rather than teleporting into the zone and oh look, there's a new massive crystalin structure that wasnt there yesterday. Neat!

I like this +1

Nice lol but wasted could have been a better April Fool's joke. Nice still. :)

I wrote this in another post but, i post it hear again it's along the same line as Akujin

Bahamut we all know he is coming and he wrapped around that tower in Mor' Dhana (spell check) but it think it would be cool that if the tower rises because of Dalmund (the red moon) getting closer to the ground that we fought like the first fight of a series with Bahamut. For example the tower starts to rise and form the crystal tower (idk if this is going to happen of course i am just saying) and it awakes him from sleep. We fight Bahamut in an instance or w/e where the tower is the center and it's rising to form the Crystal tower. Land can break away from the battle field and debris could fall from the sky that you have to dodge. All this going on and fighting bahaumt would be epic. have the final cut-scene bring the tower to full position. In the cut-scene the ground is still breaking away from you and you barely make it across before the rest of the land crumbles under neath and the fully resurrected crystal tower stands in all it glory in front of you.

The dragon wrapped on the giant airship (Agrius) in Mor Dhona is actually Midgardsormr :P

It's actually Midgardsormr. You learn this from the man who gives you the monk job quests.

Edit:I'm too slow~!

It's actually midgardsormr!


Also he apparently got burnt to a crisp. What we see is just his ashen remains.

It's not out the realm of possibility that it could happen in 1.21a.

I would like this also, was awesome the first time you walked into Delkfutt's Tower after CoP and saw that cutscene.

Walking up to bearded rock and a cutscene triggers the ground starts shaking, little ewe bleating and running away as the crystals tears from the ground and the camp is destroyed. (what would be cool is afterwards there could be small aetherial monsters running around)

True... It could happen.. :O they did say that there will be Umbra related content within the lettered patches... hmmm..

Damn you photoshop!!

I'll go rub my new red subligar on the Aether and turn them red....

Ahh lol look at me sorry guy well too bad he burnt to crisp because that would have been cool!

I like this but i hope it just not one big cut scene that puts everything in order, i hope their some fights and cut-scene that mold the world around you

well i will let this die down but as soon as alfgar pops let reopen this! i don't want to miss it
