Has anyone started to pray to the gods yet?

If these claims are true, then perhaps there is still hope.


Shall we? ^^

They're urging us on so that we make the next change the in the sequence happen.

I picked up on the same phrase as Nariko. (/wave) (/cheer)

Follow the lore, the hints, and the nudge from Twitter and make things happen. Not in Carteneau Flats, but at the shrines. I plan to visit all 12 tonight. Even the one well guarded by morbols. If I'm wrong, I had fun.

We fought a great buffalo (well I only logged on for about 15 minutes) for an hour tonight, barely knocked off 30% off its health, and it started evading all our attacks and its health climbed back up to 95%.

Pointless endeavour.
Surely this point of time isn't just about getting rid of the new mobs that have raided our worlds?

Has any server managed to organise groups of adventurers to visit all 12 shrines... at the same time? (e.g. 4 people at 1 shrine... total 4 x 12 = 48, just wonder how much is "enough")

The words have been written... no harm trying.
But I can't do it alone.... Masamune?

There are about 10 Lvl50 Imperials at Azeyma, the Warden's Shrine, southeast of Camp Drybone. They were never there before during the Living on a Prayer quest. Surely SE didn't just put them there......

I've been making a point to pray occasionally at the Mark of the Matron; Nophica being my guardian deity.

Nothing as of yet.

That's what a number of us have been doing... to pray individually. But I don't think that's gonna work...otherwise something should have already happened.

you guys are taking lore posts too seriously.

But what else is there to do? Killing the super-bosses aren't cutting it, even with a 100 people on a mob.
After all this game HAS a story..... why not follow to see if things do actually happen?

If there does turn out to be something to the praying to the gods thing, wouldn't it be cool to be a part of it rather than just hear about it after the fact?

I think so. ^^

Get to praying, people.

We did try praying at our own guardian's stone while wearing the rings we received during the Living on a Prayer quest... but still nothing.

The guardians' stones are giving off more light, and the one in Mor Dhona is resonating quite loudly now.

There are imperials near all of the ones we've re-visited.

Something must be up... or coming, perhaps within the next few days?

If you can... get more people to pray to their deities (and even better with their rings on) at the same time! (and I mean at ALL 12 shrines). So far I have two people in my party LOL.....

at least something concrete that we can do.
Unless someone has a better suggestion?

We've started an LS on Balmung and also have a thread here on the Lodestone.

So far all I've heard is that people have traveled as individuals to the altars. No serious group efforts have been made. We're going to try something tomorrow 11/03/2012. Full Party to pray at each stone in the same order as "Living on a Prayer".

Great!
I've also started an LS "Prayers for Eorzea" here on Masamune, but of course, almost everyone is fighting mobs for hours.... then again the people whom I play with are all not around sigh....
..if anyone of you on Masamune are keen to give this a shot, send me a tell ingame.

I faintly remember YoshiP addressing us about "the end of the world" and how we needed the efforts of EVERY SINGLE ADVENTURER in this game to brave through it! I can't find that post... I don't think it was in a Letter from the Producer or I could be very much mistaken.

I hope a full party of 8 praying at 12 shrines simultaneously can happen.

Update this (and other similar) thread....keep it alive and on top! The key to surviving this onslaught has to be the power of prayer!

I heard one of our Golems spontaneously lost a lot of health and died. Did the Twelve.......?

Everytime a pilgram finishes his journey a golem dies... possibly a kitten too

Is there any truth to this??? We need evidence...

On Masamune we had like 5 Vanguards die randomly....and then Deepvoid mobs spawned in their place.

So.....>_> Don't know about that.

I refuse to pray!

You have no idea who you are really praying to...

Demon's Souls as a reference, what you may think is divine may be the most evil of all the -Gods/Goddess-.

I do what I feel is right! That should be enough to slay anything.

To be fair, this game isn't nearly as mean as the Souls series.

I might send a prayer to Halone if I can sneak over to her stone.

How do you insert pictures from your SS?

I don't know, I mean they developers made people fight and kill neutral goblins and quirqins.

Kind of reminds me of Saint Astrae and Queelag from Demon/Dark souls. Both of them were important to others because they were helping people by taking in dangerous materials into their bodies.

We kill snurbles for the best items with no choice if we want the best gear at the moment.

Atomos is the Old One, needs constant Aetheryte (souls) to create the deepvoid (undead).

You're onto something here. Living on a Prayer spoke about how summoning the Twelve will drain Eorzea's Aether, so our salvation is also our doom. Which is why I think that the Aether Atomos is absorbing will be transferred to a future time along with us, so it can be used to rejuvenate the land that gets ravaged, after the Twelve save it from being destroyed completely.
