Patch 7 1 speculation

[SannaR]

Thanks! I had a glance at that part in the live letter. What he said was actually kind of interesting - it's not going to be a long quest, and it's got kind of an "after story" vibe that didn't fit the atmosphere of 7.0 (or that's how I took it, I defer to the experts), so it seems like it's a kind of stand alone episode relating to the story of the raid quests? In which case, I sense a lore dump in the offing... I mean, I'll take it, especially over another farewell encore from the original three - I'm just surprised they're bothering.

Np. The voiced part with Elidibus felt like a good send off so as everyone else has said it feels odd to be getting more. Not that anyone here would say no to more lore. Even if it is something like the Omega: Beyond the rift I'm just not sure what we would be looking at and through what lense.

Yeah, that's a very quiet answer, but it's quiet to the point where it's not even explicit; I got the idea that it's the chasm (or possibly the mythical monster inside the chasm, which the chasm might itself be named after), but it's really unclear.

I'd just like to call it something other than 'the big bridge'! Unless Gilgamesh fights on it, then it's allowed the name.

I'm not sure what you mean by it being a quiet answer - it's referred to a few times. I can't give all of them without going back over the quest scripts, but I'm looking at the expedition logs in Tender Valley now and the one at X:12, Y:11 (canyon town, top of the first waterslide) refers to the Yok Huy as "those who built Zorgor the Boundless".

There's certainly no reason to assume it refers to a mythical being - the name does sound more like something you'd give to a being, but it seems to be a standard format for Yok Huy place-names, both built and natural. The temple where Valigarmanda was imprisoned is called Karryorzar the Gracious; the western lake is Karvarhur the First.

Oh, that's my bad from being from a different source: understandably from me, my source was fish lore, the Zorgor Vulture's description mentions it.

The Shaaloani fishing holes are called 'Westbound Zorgor' and 'Eastbound Zorgor', which sounds like it's probably talking about the canyon, but isn't definitive.

That's what I meant by it being ambiguous – the name seems to be used for the bridge when quests talk about it, but the chasm when the fishing log talks about it. (I did mean to say that in my previous post but forgot.)

Zogor, The Boundless is the big bridge, its actually marked on the map of Tuliyollal
