Dynamis - Limit Breaks

[Dikatis]

But it's not dynamis that lets them do it. The EE specifically states that the BLM LB3 is cast by:


Last Bastion, though...

So that one might be Dynamis.

Final Heaven is specifically aether, and references reaching beyond mortal limits.

WAR is aether from allies,
DRG is purely internal,
BRD is aether from allies,
NIN is gathering aether scattered around the battlefield,
WHM is allied aether with the WHM's life force,
SMN is actually Bahamut's aether which a whole new snag,
SCH doesn't explain anything,
DRK is some random aether source suffused with inner darkness,
MCH is described as purely mechanical, no aether at all,
AST is celestial power, which I'd have to research a little to see what that counts as,

When we get down to it, different LB seem to come from completely different sources. I think it's too simplistic to just say 'Oh, Dynamis opens the gates to all of these', especially MCH. I know that it was published before dynamis was truly a thing, but we still need an actual true bit of confirmed lore that says LB come from Dynamis. The EE promotes the synergy theory only: that a bunch of adventurers can 'pool' their energy together to create massive effects in most situations

Effectively, we can't retcon existing lore, and the people who can, well, they're not talking.

Dynamis is a means of empowering the user to achieve things (i.e. gathering enormous amounts of aether for extremely powerful attacks) that they would not be able to. The attack itself is made of aether. The means through which the aether is gathered is through dynamis. Granted, this is my idle speculation since dynamis has been foreshadowed since the Omega raids as the critical piece that allows beings with far less aether to match and triumph over empirically stronger beings.

I feel like this would be huge to figuring it out, getting the right translations of all the other languages. It's how we were able to confirm some other things in the game.

Not fluent in Japanese and it's hard to hear due to the reverb, but the Endsinger says something to the tune of, "Ima wa dynamis no kagayaki!?" or "This is the glow/shine of dynamis!?"
