Please bring back Arenvald, Square Enix and Creative Business Unit III. T_T

[TowaIsBestGirl]

Arenvald Lentinus is a Scion. A hero. A friend, who heedlessly and without hesitation gave of himself to offer salvation to a traitoress that so many others had since written off as irredeemable. He sacrificed a crucial part of himself, something he'd never have returned, to the cause of the eradication of the mad schemes of the utmost villainy. He is valuable, and he can contribute yet more to the cause. Many enjoy him, and would see him return to the fold if such an eventuality were to be put on offer. Cid nan Garlond is the premier genius of Eorzean Magitek. He is capable of many things, including the restoration and retrofitting of an Allagan superweapon eventually made useful to end other, more malevolent Allagan superweapons. Magitek is also capable of much. The world of Final Fantasy XIV is loaded with ingenious and revelatory Magitek, and this can be put to prominent use to either restore of bolster the use of Arenvald's legs.

For too long now, our friend Arenvald has quite literally sat on the sidelines. Pointlessly meandering, only to be wheeled out to be a glorified cheerleader. A criminal act of the highest caliber, when he can be so much more. His presence is a shining beacon to all who witness it. Bring him back, Square Enix. Restore one of the prodigal sons of the Scions of the Seventh Dawn to his rightful glory, and place at our side. I, and many others players I have precious little doubt, implore you to find it in your hearts to do so.

Magitek Armor mount could provide the legs. Magitek Preadator, Magitek Sky Armor.

Someone had to say it. Better late than never.

why

he's just a highlander version of graha tia: boring

at least he's a hot stud

I find his backstory, basic as it is, to be far more compelling than G'raha's "inexplicably good at Allagan things, oh also I'm a bloodline descendant of Allag royalty/chosen ones" nonsense. Blegh to that, I say.

G'raha's "inexplicably good at Allagan things ... nonsense"

He has a PhD in Allagan Studies. He didn't just magically become an expert on Allag without any training.

Except for how he got that magical (supposedly temporary, but i'm sure that's as temporary as Y'shtolas not-waning health due to magical super eyesight) knowledge transfer along with the magical blood transfusion.

He is a great character, the healer part of the EW Job quests was by far my favourite due to him and my girl Fordola. It is a fine line to walk with the subject of disabilities, but I feel it did a decent job showing he was not useless and still had a role to play. That said, it is surprising how he (And Raubahn) have not been given more technical aid to help with their disabilities, given what the Ironworks and Sharlayans can do.Not sure if we will see him again anytime soon, but would be nice if when we do he has an upgraded chair at least.

I don’t see why it’s such an issue to begin with considering all the other things we have in game. Like, for what reason couldn’t we do a variety of things for him. We have Allagan tech. We have wild and crazy magic. We have weird Garlean chimera-science. We have Magitek. We have the ironworks.

We literally have the technology to to do a Million-Dollar-Man makeover. A million times over.

Agreed. Considering Grynewaht went full hypertuned cyborg in stormblood, and Lugae in endwalker even goes further, he becomes a full robot.. I dont see why they cant just give Arenvald a pair of magitek legs.

I said the same thing somewhere some time ago. I guess leaving him a cripple since the writers don't know what to do with him is much the same as what happened to Papalymo.

EDIT: Now that i looked back on that thread, i was reminded that Raubahn deserves a fully functional arm that also works as a cannon, like Guts.
