Is Atomos trying to help us?

I very much doubt that they will make those regions anima free due to LORE.

I bet they'll put a lot of strong shit there that will have us porting back and forth all day. Set our HP in uldah, teleport the whole party there at the same time, be ready to fight as soon as you reach it.

SE's updates generally support both lore and gameplay. Neither will be ignored.

They very well could have done it because we will be teleporting out there a lot, but anything like this they tie into the lore rather than blind NPCs that don't notice any changes. Like the Lalafell gatekeeper at Uldah just after they changed mob sizes commenting on how the mobs suddenly increased in size and how the mobs turds were bigger than him.

A peculiar speculation I came up with...it seems like the Aetheryte Camps Atomos touches become "over-aspected" and become anima-free to teleport. I'm going off on how it began on 1.23a.

If this theory holds true in the next patch or so the next camps to be anima-free to teleport will be:

Dragonhead, Coerthas Central Highlands
Emerald Moss, North Shroud
Crimson Bark, West Shroud
Black Brush, Central Thanalan
Horizon, Western Thanalan

Atomos will take us beyond the reaches of time.

Maybe Atomos is trying to protect the planet from Dalamud and is planning to swallow it, reminds me of the Weapons from FFVII, they don't care of the living people, but care about the planet.

Maybe Atomos is trying to protect the planet from Dalamud and his planning to swallow it, reminds me of the Weapons from FFVII, they don't care of the living people, but care about the planet.

This would also allude to FFXI where he swallows whole dimensions if he deems one unfit. So XI's atomos is definitely a good iteration for XIV where he's more than just a glorified demi spell.

Cedarwood couldn't get Atomos anyway - it's just a node, not a main aetheryte crystal. Sad.

[Jacien]

Opening a wormhole to let a bunch of voidkin run around in the realm is not my idea of help.

[VydarrTyr]

Could Atomos be replenishing the aether, but his only way is to bring forth these terrifying cratures to ferry it?

Atomos: "I bring you love."

Vydarr Tyr: "It's bringing love! Don't let it get away!"

Lenny: "Break its legs!"

I just got killed by Atomos. The answer is no.
