Predictions for 5.3?

Like many have said, I'm guessing we'll be waking up Source G'raha. They kept talking about the Allagan blood in previous patches, so we'll probably be carrying it to the door via the crystal that Exarch G'raha has been fiddling with. Pretty sure the trial is gonna be against Elidibus, no way they are gonna just let us end the arc on the First without eliminating the last threat to it.

On that note about CT, Natsuko Ishikawa posted a interesting tweet some days ago: https://twitter.com/kinacchin/status...76393267847169

Google roughly translate it to:

Chronicle Quest: After clearing the Crystal Tower, the equipment used by Nero when investigating the tower is on a "certain map" that will allow you to go after the jet black (Shadowbringers). As a member of Noah, why not look for it?

Anyone interested in a treasure hunt?

About that last thing

Nero's beacon that he had in 2.0 and CT quests is in Syrcus Trench at the very far end.

Have you got an exact location for it? I looked around but couldn't see it. I assume it must be quite small, and there are annoying bits in the floor texture that look like something until you check them closely.

That does remind me though, re. "things that changed state during CT", that Nero's scanner would be another thing. Interesting that it gets brought up now.

It never quite made sense (once the truth came out in Shadowbringers) that the mystery object detected by the scanner could be the beacon - because assuming G'raha could only put it there after arriving in the First, he couldn't have done that until after Nero threw the scanner down there.

(Unless it's some oddity of time flow and that scene with Nero didn't happen until a lot later either, I guess... if we don't get a proper resolution to that mystery, I'm going to go with that idea.)

Here's a picture from someone on Twitter who found it. I'll try to give a more exact coordinate location later.

In the bottom right just in case you missed it.
