Emperatriz == Empress...
But when this boss is beginning to count needles, the text says it is counting HIS needles...
Does anyone know if this is a general lore mishap, if the boss is gender confused, or just the english text being incorrect?
Qarn HM Sabotender Emperatriz gender confusion?

in german it says "ihre"[ger.] which means "her"[eng.] so I asume it is a english mistranslation

The gender bender cactus. lol? Reminds me of Jurassic Park where Doctor Malcolm asks "How do you check their gender? Do you go out there and lift up their skirts?"

...any plant science nerds in real life know how to differentiate genders between cacti?
I'm an animal science nerd, so no help here. -
11-04-2014, 06:28 AMAshkendorWell, flowers technically have both genders so...Quote:

The Cardon Cactus is trioecious, which means... it has 3 genders. So... Science.

I was going to post about this as well, but been lazy. If it's gonna be Emperatriz, it needs to read "her needles" not "his" Lol. If it's a male, change his name to "Emperador". ^^b

11-04-2014, 09:08 AMNep_Nepohh right. Forgot about the 1 minute cool down. Nevermind. xD Yeah Trick looked much better when I glanced over it.Quote:

Whereas Cactaur are usually more rigid and stationary, Sabotenders are usually taller, smoother, and move around without a care. AFAIK, female sabotenders have a flower atop their heads whereas male sabotenders do not.Quote:
