Zero, Cyella and Unukalhai

[Hayden]

Anyone else feel like the sidequests dealing with Unukalhai and Cyella following the defeat of the Cardinal Virtues, will be made mandatory for 7.0, given what we know about Zero and the events of 6.2?

I kinda feel like we're gonna be made to have that done....

I do not think that will ever happen. They would not force you to play more then one type of class, let alone three, to play the MSQ. Its the lifeblood of the game, and they need to make it assessable to everyone from casual players to crafters. Hence why they are making MSQ Dungeons soloable.

I can see two things happening. The first is that they end up not involving Cyella and Unukalhai in whatever happens to the Void due to having too many roadblocks in the way. That would be a shame. The second, and what I would hope happens, is that they add a new series of side quests that involves Cyella and Unukalhai, once the MSQ is finished with the Void. I personally do not think we will see it ‘cured’ in the 6.x patches, so would rather see that happen or get started via side content that is more free to put up these roadblocks in the name of storytelling.

You're right, I don't think that would go over well with players.

Now, they did force us to go back and complete certian raids to finish ShB...so...I don't know?

I know we can complete Unukalhai's stuff without needing multiple job types? So maybe at the very least that much will need doing?

As Cyella is sort of in the 1st regardless.

I don't know. We'll see.

I sure hope they involve them somehow. I like to imagine what is happening with Ryne and Gaia and Pandy, and Cyelle and Unukalhai and co is important. Sure feels important.

but you have a good point.

As someone who will never play a caster, I'd just have to quit or buy a jump potion to Very Easy Mode my way through the solo duties. And that 100% would not go very well with people paying in different currencies.

True, they did make us go back and complete a raid, but I feel there is a big difference between doing a raid once with a class that would likely have already been level ready, and having to get at least four (Three if you cheat!) job types to level 80. Its a large task that would get a LOT of negative feedback if done.

It feels like they may have backed themsleves into the corner with this a little. Times like this it feels like they do just plan one expasnion at a time... stil, wel do not even know what will happen with the Void prior to 7.0 so we will just have to wait and see.

I think they would have to adjust things so it unlocked with just the role quest you need to finish in ShB and not doing them all. I don't see them making it mandatory for everyone to have one of each role at max level and do the role quests on them.

[RyuDragnier]

What I suspect MAY happen is that when we're done, there'll be a section of the 13th we can keep coming back to, such as Zero's domain. We'll get a continuation of the side quests (remaining as side quests) that results in Unukalhai and Cyella ending up back on the 13th in this domain with a few from the First. They'll help begin the process of healing the 13th again, potentially with having Voidsent come to the First and absorb parts of the Light from the Flood to heal them of their imbalanced darkness, thus allowing both the First and the 13th to simultaneously heal by fixing each other's imbalances. This of course would be mentioned as a very long, arduous process that would take decades to do.

what side quest

Nope, don't feel that way at all.

Someone brought it up in another thread and I pointed out that what they are trying to achieve is not what the WoL's party is trying to do. As nice as it would be to run into them as part of the MSQ, it's not going to happen.

That doesn't rule out a side quest that talks about what they're doing, though.

In the meantime, talk to the pair at the Wandering Stair after completing the 6.2 MSQ if you haven't already.

They will probably require doing the warring triad bit since it is essentially soloable content-more so when 7.0 lands. Not a big ask.

Leveling multiple classes to 90 I don’t see though. If they can handwave stuff like binding coil/related characters in that raid, I don’t see this being an issue.
