Thread: Krile in 7.0

Regardless of name or why she was there, Yda/Lyse was recognized as a Scion by the rest of the group, until she left after Stormblood to help in Ala Mhigo.

My opinion, I do not think Krile will get a job change. I think she will be replacing Alphinaud as the trust healer for a bit in the MSQ, since at this time we do not know the status of how far along the Twins are with helping out in Garlemald, and that the contractor is specifically looking for Archons and those of neutrality (Alphinaud and Alisaie have yet to get their mark,and thus the reason why they have not received a message as far as we know).

While it is not impossible for her to job change, it would technically go against her character, for example a quote from the Unending Codex: "Displaying a remarkable aptitude in the mystic arts, Krile attended the Studium in Sharlayan, joining the Faculty of the Arcane and becoming highly skilled in healing and curing magicks" For her to technically stray from her "healer" status something drastic must occur to her. Thus, if going off the theory of dropping the Twins for any reason, a dps slot for trusts would be open for any new character they wanted to add into the story in 7.0.

For starters, I'm kind of expecting (and dreading a little bit) that Zero will be one of our new trust DPS NPCs.

Secondly, while unlikely, Square COULD just surprise us all and give her a custom job that isn't the new job. Y'shtola got a custom job, Alphinaud's old job was a custom one, simpboi has a custom one. They could just make her into some sort of healer/dps hybrid that focuses on healing (so basically... glare spam - the NPC, which she already is...). It'd be completely pointless but it'd be a funny surprise.

Dear god please no more Krile. She's so dull.

No, MORE Krile, so they can actually bloody DO something with her, so that she could be Less Dull.
Thats the real issue with her character, is that she doest DO anything. Urianger started out the same way, he didnt Do Anything and was just kind of there sometimes. Then eventually he Joined the Frey, and now he's awesome.
To a degree, same with Alphinaud and Alisaie...they just...existed. But eventually finally DID something.

The Same can / Should happen to Krile.

FFV's Krile has some fairly excellent alternative outfits outside of the (Devout-inspired WHM set currently used in FFXIV) that they could bring in with a job change. Geomancer is a pajama set, Beastmaster is a sheep suit, and Berserker is a tiger suit. If they really wanted to tease the different options, they could have some fun with this next patch. It'll likely end up being something original (perhaps Void Mage) anyways.

Alpharius: useless, accidentally got everyone exiled for an expansion and the following expansion was basically his fault too.
Uruanger: traitor half the time, pretty cool otherwise.
Edda: her fiancé died and she went round the bend.
Canny senna: definitely the worst of the are city leaders.
Y’shtola: gave healer up when they ruined them in shb

There’s a clear precedent that healers aren’t allowed to be good in the story. Thus to maintain continuity with both the other krile and this one, swapping to warrior (berserker) would be a suitable option, as well as tying into her stated desire in the endwalker story to be useful. I don’t think it’s necessarily fair that the story has such a dim view of healers but it is what it is.
