Unsolved Mysteries Of Vana'diel

Dynamis Dangruf Wadi let's go.

I doubt they have the resources, but if new dynamis zones were to unlock I’d love for them to be for newer expansions like TAU, WOTG, and Adoulin.

Dynamis - Yorcia Weald.

Of the newer zones, I wish they'd give us a real event in Rakaznar Inner Court. The Vagary fights and August in the Turris are nice, but something that takes us to one of the coolest zones in game, daily, would be superb.

They really didn't do much with this zone. I was wandering through here the other day looking for Brygens and had totally forgotten how big the zone is. There's even 1 island in there that I think is literally impossible to reach (even though it has monsters on it) at I-11/12 on map #2.

That would be a nice rival for Dynamis - Yuhtunga/Yhoator Jungle

You can walk on air around that island on both sides. The floor is just invisible.

Them's fightin' words.

SoA was supposed to have another chapter where, iirc, you get to properly meet August and fight through Tartarus. I always assumed Ra'Kaznar Inner Court was meant to be used in whatever content they were planning for that zone.

It seemed like they pulled the plug on that chapter though when they saw that FFXIV ARR's launch wasn't going up in flames. It's really a shame too, it seemed like the SoA storyline was a passion project on the part of Yaeko Sato (CoP writer), so she had to cobble an ending together for the 5th chapter. Still turned out great IMO, but that's more a testament to her skill as a writer than anything else.

Were the original Ultima and Omega the weapons that the Zilart used to defend themselves from the terrestrial avatars?

Something that occurred to me: the NPC that gives you entry items for Delve, the Anomaly Expert, has a mannequin head. Was that ever explained?

It's basically an other world entity controlling a mannequin to deal with you.

The HTBF NPCs are the same. All mannequins.

It's tangentially related to the simulacra that you have the old man snap together for Skirmish access. If you notice, they're grey statues/mannequins.

I'm guessing there was some sort of idea that didn't get fully fleshed out about giving bodies, essentially, over to entities from Tartarus.

All in all, though, it's just one of those unsettling details so there's no need to explain how an Adoulinian citizen that lorewise is too afraid to go into the jungle for the last five decades / too old could still know precisely what Delve is and how to access it, since it's like a dimensional fissure involving yet more Naakuals (which are monsters from Tartarus).
