Thread: The Patch 5.2 Discussion Thread! (Spoilers)

The fact that we see Zenos walking through a recollection of the original Calamity makes me wonder if he got tired of waiting for us to come home.

Considering that he is pretty much an Ascian at this point, hopping between shards isn't really out of the question for him.

But I think the first thing that's going to draw the attention of those who frequent this forum is that they're finally coming back around to The Starshower. I mean, I'm sure it won't be what it was in 1.0, but Shadowbringers opened some convenient doors for making it look relevant / prophetic.

This coupled with Y'shtola's (?) hypothesis that a sufficiently strong memory could continue to impact a soul even eons later makes me think the Starshower Echo users experience when they awaken was definitely a vague recollection of the original Calamity.

Especially considering they're in all likelihood surviving fragments of souls from that time.

It's kind of overdue at this point!

Could it not just be a play on how Emet-Selch himself said of Elidibus that he seldom errs?

People confirmed on Reddit that it is very well Elidibus in the Japanese version.

The colour scheme and headpiece remind me a bit of...
