Dialogue[edit]
- Commander! My research with essence manipulation has proved to be advantageous. By harnessing their power, we can exploit their weaknesses and their strengths!
- You said you've been working on something called essence manipulation?
- Yes! I've used the Spirits of the Wild as inspiration for the manipulation of spirit essence in Jormag's minions. In short, I've weaponized spirit essence against the very beings that produce it!
- How do these pylons come into play?
- Each pylon represents an essence category: resilience, vigilance, and valor. You can use the system I've developed to exploit each essence's strength and weakness.
- What is each essence's weakness?
- Well, essentially...each other! Resilience is weak to vigilance, valor is weak to resilience, and vigilance is weak to valor. It forms a perfect circle.
- And how do I use the essence categories against each other?
- It'll take some time to master the system, but I've provided a training exercise for you to start. Attack the pylon of resilience and collect the essence orbs it drops.
- Got it. (Warning: This will remove all current essence effects and special action skills.)
- Researcher Yarixx: Right. Here's how it works. Attack that Pylon of Resilience and collect the orbs of essence it drops.
- Researcher Yarixx: Well done. Now imbue yourself to the maximum threshold. Collect more essence orbs.
- Researcher Yarixx: Feel that? You're experiencing the power of the resilience essence. Attack the target dummy to channel your new power.
- Researcher Yarixx: Now, open that chest. It's vulnerable to the element you're harnessing and can only be opened if you've mastered it.
- (If don't have Essence of Resilience Tier 2 trained)
- Researcher Yarixx: Hmm. Looks like you need to develop your essence manipulation. Come back when you've progressed in your training.
- (If successfully opened the chest)
- Researcher Yarixx: Perfect. The more you train, the more the pylons will evolve. Now go give those beasts a taste of their own medicine.
- Researcher Yarixx: Come back to me if you want a further explanation, or if you're interested in a strike mission.
- I want to ask about something else.
- I wanted to ask about something else.
- I have other things to take care of.
- I wanted to ask about something else.
- I have other things to take care of.
- I wanted to ask about something else.
- I have other things to take care of.
- I'd like to try harnessing spirit essence.
- Got it. (Warning: This will remove all current essence effects and special action skills.)
- I want to ask about something else.
- Explain essence weakness to me again.
- There are three essence categories: resilience, vigilance, and valor. Resilience is weak to vigilance, valor is weak to resilience, and vigilance is weak to valor. It forms a perfect circle.
- I wanted to ask about something else.
- I have other things to take care of.
- Is there a place where spirit essence is most dangerous?
- The Raven Sanctum is occupied by powerful beings that embody one of the three essences. Depending on who—or what—occupies it, a different essence will surge.
- Show me where I need to go.
- Researcher Yarixx: Fight powerful minions of Jormag who seek to dominate the Raven Sanctum, and test your essence manipulation prowess.
- I have another question.
- Got it. I'll get going.
- Which essence is surging right now?
- (if Weekly Strike Mission: Voice of the Fallen and Claw of the Fallen is on)
- That would be the Essence of Resilience.
- (if Weekly Strike Mission: Fraenir of Jormag is on)
- That would be the Essence of Vigilance.
- (if Weekly Strike Mission: Boneskinner is on)
- That would be the Essence of Valor.
- I had another question.
- I'll be going.
- Essence manipulation... Isn't this exploiting the Spirits of the Wild?
- Yes! Isn't it fantastic? For so long, the norn haven't been able to TRULY harness the essence of their own spirits. Overall, I think they'll be quite pleased.
- I don't think that's—never mind. I have another question.
- I should go...
- I'll have other things to take care of.
