    Fortuneteller

    Time ago, I suggested a new Gold Saucer floor based on the Serendipity area from Final Fantasy XIII-2. [link]

    Now I have an idea for this new Serendipity-like area: A fortuneteller. A woman who would see our future... in the dungeons. Let me explain.

    When you talk to her, a window similar to the duty finder will appear, with all dungeons, trials, and raids. When selecting one, the woman will tell "your future" there, or better said: a tip related with the duty. Each duty would have 3 tips, each one telling you about a strat for a boss attack, or maybe another dungeon puzzle: like read the note at Sastasha to know the right colour.

    I think this would be good for newest duties. For people who doesn't want to watch guide videos, but doesn't want to go completely blind, so they can listen three tips from this fortuneteller. Obviously, her tips should have a touch of mystery.

    Well, the AST is already a fortuneteller, with their abilities based around divining how a battle will play out and even subtly influencing events as a result, so having this as a fortuneteller would somewhat redundant. However, as far as something that helps with dungeon strategy could be very useful, maybe an extra npc at the Beginner's Hall or Adventurer's Guild would be more suitable? I admit I really like this idea.

    The reason why I suggest this as a fortuneteller is because... An adventurer from those places won't know about posible dungeon strats. I mean, how he will advice about Shinryu or Yojimbo attacks? How he will know we are going to face them?

    That is why I ask for an Astrologian fortuneteller in the GS. She will see our future on those duties, and tell us about for example Shinryu's mech with Tidal Wave, or Yojimbo's mech with the coins. Obviously, she would call Yojimbo something like: "the lethal samurai", or Exdeath as "a spirit from a tree" to avoid Spoilers.

    Also, it wouldn't be so redundant. We already have something "similar" to what I mean: the Fortunetellers from the Valentione's events (though they read another things, not future related to bosses mechs). xD
