I just hope it has a place that drops seal chains. I can't take any more AAHM, and I STILL only have 2.

For the amount of time investment it takes to get a chain I'd much rather buy them and make the money back.

The same way Meditation does. Didn't you read the dialogue? Not that the lore is particularly consistent.

Supposedly...

After you reach a certain stage in meditation, you figured out that while meditating can be done to passively increase the mana intake...

Inspiration is when you force the mana in the very air and atmosphere to enter your body forcefully.

Due to the stress it puts in the body, it cannot be done continuously, but in bursts every few minutes. A regular human would not be able to perform this state without at least some knowledge in meditation to conform the force of mana into your body with the user's mana.

In theory, when Inspiration happens, your body becomes a vacuum that absorbs all nearby mana, but in return, it can only be done in a burst state every few minutes due to the stress of intaking a large amount of mana at once.

So effectively we're now gods of mana, exceeding the lunar constellations that IIRC were the source of Erinn's mana? What's next, forcing an enemy to intake too much make and make them explode?

Kind of reminds me of sage mode in naruto lol.
Slayerj wrote on 2015-05-26 22:10

As for that explanation, that was great! The only thing I don't fully get is how we force the mana into us without using some mana. Then again, I'm sure it can be done without mana. This also makes me think that snapcast is the same thing, but with just forcing the mana in the air to become our spell. (I haven't read Snapcasts info at all and I really should.)

Srs warning is srs. I think we've had enough of the "inspiration is OP" discussion.

There's no explanation behind it, especially since you get it from "experience" and not from a teacher.

Likewise I don't think Spellwalk is explained either. IIRC Berched just says "oh, strengthen your body and you'll learn this skill."

It's unfortunate, but their tutoring is now horribly outdated. I seriously doubt DevCAT went back to change their dialogue to fit with Renovation changes.

Idk man i'd be more worried about how scooters, virtual reality MMOs and the holy grail war that is about to hit Dunbarton fit into the lore rather than something that can easily be explained by "it's magic".

I am more worried about that holy grail. Jeez, how dare they enter our world and turn it into their plaything!

It was bad enough when stupid Tarlach and Ruairi opened the gates to numerous new worlds and universes, but moreso, they opened the gate into the Fate Stay Night Universe.

In before we get Fate Stay night exclusive skills, such as summoning 1,000 legendary weapons like Gilgamesh and send them at our enemies.
