    Aether Measuring Devices

    The scions all carry these masks with dials that allow them to see and measure aetheric flows, and at least one of the Garlean generals (Nero?) had a device on his gauntlet that measured aether. Is there a proper name for these devices?

    I don't recall the Scions referring to their Sharlayan-made devices as anything but goggles, off the top of my head. If I had to guess, I'd say Aetheroscope. Nero's device seems to be slightly different, as it measures some objective power level as opposed to just rendering the aether visible.

    Nero, what does the Scouter say about his Aether level?

    I don't know how much of 1.0 you paid attention to, but this is one of my favorite memories:

    Haha, that is hilarious - I never played 1.0 though, so I hadn't heard of this before.

    The monk questline reveals that they're called aetherometers.
