I was visiting the memorial today [3.0 spoilers]

And ran into an old friend!

YEP
THANKS SQUEENIX.

/cry

Can't I at least get the option to give the poor guy a hug? ;__;

;___;

I also noted that the knight that mechanic immediately after the LB in thordan EX is the same one that killed Haurchefaunt. he also says something about killing him.

What, did you really found him near his grave?

Yes, whenever you go visit Haurchefant's memorial now Francel will be there paying his respects, speak to you briefly, and then leave.

He'll also come back periodically if you linger there, as I tend to do while waiting for Void Ark as a tank or whatever.

Yes, Francel's visiting there ever since 3.1. As Cilia said above, he comes back periodically.

Yeah... Zephirin ò.ò
He appears in an earlier phase of the fight as well; the one you have to dps so that his attack won't one-shot everyone (sorry, forgot the name...). I really enjoy suffocating him with my Winds, spitting at him with Fluid Aura, and then throwing Stone III at him for good measurement :D

Heh. I do that frequently, too. Been one of my favorite spots for some time; now even more.

"You deny the only one true god!
You shall fall as did your ally!"

and then he readies the spear that slew Haurchefant ;;

I saw Leofard and his right-hand woman (whose name escapes me at the moment) in there once, but only once. Have yet to figure out what throws the flag that triggers their appearance.

Perhaps it's random, or perhaps it's only once after completing the Void Ark... don't know.

He's even using what looks to be the same attack he used to try to kill us with had Haurchefant not stepped in. Square, playing with your feels since 1987.

Actually, this has been present since 3.0.

As someone who occasionally visited Haurchefant's memorial after the ending of 3.0 and before 3.1 hit, I promise you it was only added in 3.1.

I tried /soothe /comfort and /pray (in front of the grave) but saw no reaction from that.

I have been up there every day for a while, it's been one of my favorite spots for well before Heavensward. Never met him until I went there again the day 3.1 launched.
Yes, I admit it, I'm crazy.

The monument itself has been there ever since I finished 3.0, yes.

when i saw that attack, i genuinely wanted to kill him specifically.

I wonder how our departed friend is going to play part in our time in 3.0.
