MSQ Needs Further Condensing

[Sauteed]

Against Igeyorhm and Emet-Selch.

Nah, that was all some one I won't mention, but he was the guy we wound up fighting anyway. He sucked them up in order to power himself.

Perhaps you should re-watch some cut-scenes because you seem to be misremembering details.

Igeyorhm was killed by us using White Auracite and Nidhogg's eye
Lahabrea was the one who was 'sucked up' to power someone else.
Emet-Selch was killed by us using White Auracite and the excess primordial light within our body.

Nah I won't, I've got WAY more important stuff to do like argue the point of -needlessly- excessive MSQ time could be trimmed. And the cutscenes aren't entertaining enough for me to rewatch anyhow. Admittedly I started skipping them after the first time I did them years ago and the newer SHB sucked so bad (in my opinion) they were insta gibbed. I gave the 5.4 cutscenes a chance, and glad I did. Merlwyb gave great speeches.

And in 4.x there WAS no Ascian (except...uh... in the backstory for Eureka and got dealt off off-screen), so we've in fact used White Auracite against all Ascians we've faced since its introduction, it's just that Lahabrea and Igeyorhm surprised us when we only had 1 on us.

Complains about story details, doesn't watch the story... Sure, Jan.

No i watched it, got bored with it. Didn't watch it repeatedly, and won't watch it again because it is boring. And the ShB story is in my opinion the worst, and earned itself some instant skipping when the cut scenes start. I will be purchasing story skips for all future characters for ShB btw if I'm still playing by then. Just that unenjoyable.

We used white auracite to kill Igeyorhm, and were forced to let Lahabrea get away—we only had enough for one Ascian, not two. But Lahabrea wasn't quick enough, and Thordan betrayed him, feeding his soul to Nidhogg's (second) eye in Ascalon.

Emet-Selch wasn't even introduced at that point—his first appearance is late in Stormblood. And his death, too, involved white auracite. Specifically, Thancred broke up the piece Urianger brought with for the fight into shards and impaled him with them. There's even an item in-game referencing this: The token dropped from clearing Hades EX is explicitly one of the shards used to bind him in place.
