New pics of Dalamund

If you would rather experience the lore firsthand, I would suggest doing the Grand Company quests.

I'm working my way through them now, looking forward to seeing where things go!

There are 2 scenarios currently in FFXIV

Main scenario 1 revolves around your use of Echo, the beast-tribes, the primals and the three-way conflict with the Empire. There has been no progression in this plotline in some time.

Main scenario 2 revolves around the Dalamund and the coming of the 7th Umbral Era. Let's just say the Dalamund isn't.. natural.

I'm sure that due to the changing nature of the game with 2.0 they've decided that putting forward this end of the world storyline which i'm assuming Dalamund is contributing to is the best path to keep the players interested. I can't wait to see how it turns out.

EDIT: And thanks for the rundown Holy_Dragoon - I appreciate it!

We already know Hydaelyn is a normal planet in some kind of solar system, so if the moon circles at the same speed as the planet so it always is above Eorzea instead of being seen on other continents too, it means Dalamud has really "locked on" to Eorzea..o_o'

Oh wait..aren't other continents' citizens now worried, too?
They saw Dalamud growing bigger and bigger and red too and now suddenly it vanished!


@the violet lightning you can see when zooming in:
I think Dalamud is being charged :D

I noticed these dots on Dalamud as well one starry night and realized they are just the stars peeking through. I think maybe they didn't do a good enough job obscuring what is supposed to be behind it.

If you are talking about the violet lightning, it's not the stars behind it.
Stars are dots, the lightning is..a line, kind of.
Maybe your graphic settings are not good enough, I'll try to provide a picture showing the difference better.


Edit: Here you go :)
Not perfect, but it shows it's not the stars behind.

Dalamud for whatever reason is discharging electrical energy, that's those purple lines moving about on its suface.
