    Estinien in 3.0

    So with Estinien as one of the WoL companions through out 3.0, with Lady Iceheart, Cid, Biggs, Wedge, and Alphinaud. Do you think he will survive 3.0 and beyond or be killed off like most important NPCs in MSQ?

    Considering we will get more lore about Estinien in 3.0, as the Dragonsong trailer shows that we will have echo visions about his past, I hope they don't just kill him off as their excuse to remove him from the MSQ considering he still play his role in the Dragoon lvl 30 to 50 quest if players did not complete those quest yet plus I'm getting a bit tired of the "Killer this NPC to remove from MSQ" excuse thing SE keep playing out in MSQ.

    I see you still like to post your own assumptions as fact.

    Also, good job on the spoiler warning in title for anyone who may not have finished MSQ.

    Dragonsong showed an Echo vision of a dragoon. We have no way of knowing it's Estinien. In fact that dragoon is wearing white drachen mail suggesting he's most likely someone else, quite possibly the very first dragoon.

    Nononono you don't understand they are ALL dead. You see anything the OP assumes is actually fact. MOST important NPCs are dead.

    I agree
    they're probably all still alive because killing them off-screen would be pathetically anticlimactic, plus bringing back a "dead" character that you never saw die is an effective device for making a character look awesome.

    No. This is some Game of Thrones level sh*t now. No NPC is safe.

    While it dpends on if we know anyone who was even alive and there when the event happens. The Echo only show events of the past if the person or being was there and alive during the events that happened in the Echo vision in FF14ARR and that person or being must also be alive for the Echo to show us that Vision. Not to mention Estinien may have had his armor changed when he went rogue. NPCs are not bound by a law saying they must always wear the same armor in their past and future after all.

    (Won't be surprised if the Scions are given new outfits to replace their old outfits when they decide to return in 3.0 or 3.X era considering Main Characters like Cid and Alphinaud are getting new outfits as well)

    Even GRRM doesn't kill characters just because. He's also never killed a major character off-page, and is the master of the "fake out" death.

    You know the rule...

    "If you did not see them die then they are most likely a live."

    I never said anything about the "others" being dead.
