    Qarn HM Sabotender Emperatriz gender confusion?

    Emperatriz == Empress...
    But when this boss is beginning to count needles, the text says it is counting HIS needles...

    Does anyone know if this is a general lore mishap, if the boss is gender confused, or just the english text being incorrect?

    I took a screenshot when I first did that dungeon to submit a bug report, but I've been lazy.

    The gender bender cactus. lol? Reminds me of Jurassic Park where Doctor Malcolm asks "How do you check their gender? Do you go out there and lift up their skirts?"

    ...any plant science nerds in real life know how to differentiate genders between cacti?

    I'm an animal science nerd, so no help here.

    The Cardon Cactus is trioecious, which means... it has 3 genders. So... Science.

    It's all right though, our epic translator included plenty of great memes and cultural references to make up for gross errors in accuracy! :^) Let it go!! xd
