Another Book closes [SPOILER DISCUSSION]

[PArcher]

I'm definitely getting a Bloodborne vibe from floors 31-50. The fact that the names change from "Palace" to "Nightmare" and its almost all Voidsent enemies...

I'll have to pay closer attention to the floor 30 clear cutscene when I run this on my alt (eventually), but I wonder if there's some sort of hint that something else has happened (AKA, being dragged into this nightmare realm)


Wonder just how dark the next 50 floors are going to be, and who we'll find lurking below...

Kinda, I guess? The Chalice dungeons most players ignored were kind of like the Palace, albeit somewhat less randomized. Either way "Mystery Dungeon" isn't something that was made by either game... though the horrors present in both aren't terribly dissimilar.

Err... transitioning from Floor 30 to 31, there's no special cutscene to say why all the enemies have become "Nightmare [X]" instead of "Palace [X]." The 30 clear cutscene is just a closer look at Edda's new... look, and mysteriously there's no 40 clear cutscene. It just transitions from "Palace" to "Nightmare" with no real explanation... but that's the intent, no doubt. Makes it more mysterious.

Apropos of nothing, 31 points away from finishing my Guillotine of the Tyrant. Only got 7 leve allowances left, though... c'mon!

Finally finished it; got fed up dying to Rapture from the Slimes while soloing and just did matched party.

Seems like some kind of artificial purgatory. Edda mentions a robed figure after her defeat, meaning... well, I'm not saying it's Ascians, but it's Ascians. Anyway, the multitude of other dead NPCs suggests it's either Limbo or Purgatory, but if it's artificial I'm not really sure how or why it's there. If it's Ascians (which it is), it's likely just a trap to lure us in and kill us. Nice to see a change from Lahabrea's "Step 1: Teach mortals to summon Primals. Step 2: ??? Step 3: Chaos!" MO.

Glad Edda was finally, truly laid to rest. Now, for the Floor 100 boss do they want to give us some catharsis and let us kill Teledji with our own two hands, or twist the knife and makes us fight Haurchefant...?

-IF- they put Teledji in the Palace, I will be more than happy to help take him down. However, if Haurchefant is put in there for ANY reason, I swear to God I will flip my shite and NEVER touch the Palace again, whether or not I need the weapons, or w/e else they plan to have in the higher floors.

I wouldn't expect to run across Haurchefant or Ysayle, they don't seem to fit in with the restless, confused souls of the Palace.

On the other hand I am fully prepared to break my heart over finding Wilred down there.

ETA: Noraxia would also make for a pretty good combo of a hell of a boss fight and "OH GOD I DIDN'T ASK FOR THESE FEELINGS".

<s> I think floor 200 should be the real Nanamo.</s>

[KeiranOlive]

I've been wondering about the lost goblins that we find in there. At first I thought it might be someone we've met before, but they don't say anything when they die. How did they get there? Are they just normal enemies?

[Fenral]

Knowing how Gobbies operate, I'd say they probably wandered in looking for jinglyshine, but without proper protection, and were driven mad.

[MiraKershaw]

When we are done with palace of the dead I really hope The Lost city in eastern thanalan is the next deep dungeon

[MilesSaintboroguh]

Sorry for bumping an old thread, but I finally ran into that Immortal Flame and managed to take a pic of his face, or what I could due to everyone blasting him.



Who is he?
