How many Warriors of Light are there post EW?

[ZephyrMenodora]

Hi Lore Experts,

I was having a discussion in General randomly about the Warrior of Light and how replaceable our MC is.

I know the definition of who is a Warrior of Light has shifted over time between 1.0, ARR, and revelations in 5.2.

Does anyone have a clear understanding of who is considered a "Warrior of Light" canonically? Also what is the difference between a Warrior of Light and someone with the Echo? Post 5.2, is anyone with the Echo considered a "Warrior of Light"?

Thank you for any clarification.

Edit: Saw this thread after I already posted: https://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/...t-and-the-Echo I found this helpful but was still confused if everyone with Echo is considered a WoL.
