Dedicated Thread for Patch 2.55 Story Discussion/Spoilers

I cried at the end, God I hope Thancred isn't dead.

/damn10characterswhy!

[SPOILER]My Thoughts, i do not think any of those Scions are dead. I think they were taken in the light because they still had the blessing. They will re-appear before us sometime in 3.0[/SPOILER]

we may get a hint on 4/11

All I can say is WOW... I am speechless. Thoroughly Enjoyed it!!

This sums up everything for me. Soooooo many things happened that I don't know even where to start!!

So, I'm curious...

Anyone without a Level 50 CUL and haven't finished the CUL quests? I'm curious to see if they changed anything.

Given that the focus in the expansion is going to be primarily on Ishgard, I can't see there being a ton of scenes involving the Echo as (AFAIK) none of the Scions have had any sort of real interaction with Ishgard before 2.4. I also don't think he would be saying he was doing a significant amount of dialogue if it was just Echo flashback scenes.

So here's hoping...

I agree. Mostly just grasping at straws as far as possibilities go. I think Kyomagi probably has it right.

I wonder.. if we saw some of the new upcoming moves in the cutscenes:
Ilberd's flameslashthingy, yshtolas superholy, papalymos limitcharge...

strategy on the steps of faith fight, mild spoilers!

I really am curious about this too given, y'know, The Things That Happened. Square's usually pretty good about referencing events but in this case it'd kind of require a complete alternate way for that quest to occur.
