UFO spotted in Sea of Clouds - The Truth is out there

[dragoelete]

I'm getting a horrendous mental image of a horde of Lala DRKs running around with Thordan's sword about five times their size...
Still, the comedy value would be there at least.

ikr when i thought of it i imagined seeing a lal in my guild carrying it ... the said lala chose the smallest possible size so it would be more along the line of 6 times his size... it was a rather amusing mental image.

The world used to be one. Obvious ff5/ff9 reference too. They want to fuse the moon back with Hydaelyn probably.

Also the Warrior of Darkness is the Hyur Male whom had the echo from the 1.0 Trailer and whom watched the battle of silvertear lake. He then went off and recruited the PLD, BLM and BRD in the ARR trailer, and now he's in Ishgard as a DRG. They show a Hyur WAR in the ending of the credits on the moon.

I can see them adding the Moon as the new Crystal Tower.

Maybe it'll be divided into 3 parts:
Labyrinth of the Ancients= Lunar Surface
Crystal Tower= Lunarian Palace
World of Darkness = Lunar Subterrane

4 Fiends/Zeromus!

Also Omega is usually presented with Shinryu, but not always. But a God Dragon like Shinryu would be an excellent addition to an expansion revolving around Dragons.

Bahamut was the primal of the Merycidians, but perhaps Shinryu is the primal/Eikon of Dravanians?

The Ascians have never said "the world used to be one." Not that phrasing. What they always say is that if their plans succeed the world will go back to "the way it once was and always should have been." We don't know what that means exactly.

Common theory is that Derplander is the Warrior of Darkness, but we don't... really know what that means yet either.

I don't know if they'll add the Moon as the new Crystal Tower. At the very least, we've been told the 24-man of 3.x will not be a throwback dungeon like the Crystal Tower was (though they could have always been lying).

No mention of Shinryu has been made (yet), but I'm pretty sure he's not the Dravanians' primal. They don't seem to have one, being ancient and wise enough to know that primal summonings are a really bad idea and just create a phantasm of the summoner's desire (see: Hraesvelgr, Tiamat).

Also hope he's not one of Middy's kids, because I hope they keep the Norse names going. Bahamut and Tiamat stick out like sore thumbs, even if they're mythology fanservice.

The Ascians have never said "the world used to be one."

Specifically what they say is, "What was once shattered will again be whole."

Surprised Fafnir hasn't been mentioned yet. Maybe they'll also retcon Jormugand since they use him as a generic mob I think in CT.

Jormungand is another name for Midgardsormr, so probably not.

There's still dragons names like Gizamaluke, Evrae, Yazmat, etc to use.

The UFO goes from west to east in the northern out of bounds area of Sea of Clouds, disappearing sometime around 8pm Eorzean time (I think an earlier post said it shows up around 4:30pm).

I wonder if there's a way to track its movements throughout an entire day cycle and maybe learn something about it.

I have seen it in the sea of clouds its truly odd, deffs want to know what it is lol.

Okay I got a nice good look at it. Yep got this close.



I can confirm several things.

1. It moves from northwest to northeast slightly away from the zone.

2. It appears during Umbral Wind

3. It is getting closer. It was not possible to get this close before.
It might land soon. Maybe two weeks from now when the last part of 3.0 hits.
