What are artisan weapons in lore/what makes them so special? I’m guessing that they’re like the masterpieces from Gilgamesh (webtoon) and The Ember Knight (webtoon of the same world).
If they had tagged in with the PK when jumping Durza and Zeus maybe they could’ve helped them take down Durza fast enough that he doesn’t rage quit self-destruct, then they would’ve been the sole superpower in the Seven Seas. But instead they just stood by and watched as they were vaporized smh
As far as I’m aware it hasn’t been outright stated, it’s more so just been “soft” confirmed through process of elimination. Unless there’s some other form of fire that just so happens to look like the blue flames of Inferno, then he most likely has the Inferno Curse
That said I doubt Vetex will comment on if he does or not since it’s technically story spoilers for a major-ish character, so we’ll have to wait for the story to confirm it 
look at his eyes. They are unnatural deep-blue. And curse users have eye colors of their curses.
Julian - White (glass)
Warren - Deep Blue (inferno)
Nilah - dark yellow (sun)
it’s been confirmed he is a curse user (in a message comparing him with Wotan as being the strongest in the war seas), based off the blue flames he wields (the the player specifically comments on) I think it’s garunteed 90% chance that he has it
ah ok
Didn’t the generic bandit from whom durza got light magic stay alive long enough to get murdered by durza?
Yeah but that’s a few seconds, he probably was gonna die anyway
i assumed vetex was talking specifically about taking a curse from a curse user
I swear I thought the forum image issue was fixed but I guess not unless I’m stupid, so I’ll just copy and paste the info here:
Q: could curse uers fly into space and land in another cluster
A: they could fly into space in their element form but theyd soon suffocate cuz they still need air
I dunno about you guys but elemental curse users still needing air makes no sense to me. Why do they even need air anymore, aren’t they supposed to be one with their curse? They already don’t age because of that so why would they need AIR??
Does this mean they can also die of starvation or thirst? If not, why do they need to breathe but not eat/drink?

According to Morden’s dialogue, yeah
Weirdly enough, I’ve seen some sources that say otherwise
Someone came up with an idea on how the cloud curse could let you survive in space and Vetex said it was possible
i feel like every single fire-adjacent curse would need it, but the rest are prob perfectly fine
Damn you’re right I didn’t even realize that. I guess the logic follows that they need to breathe if they can still get hungry but that’s so lame for what’s supposed to be the pinnacle of power in the verse
Same, iirc some of Tech’s old answers to Spectre’s questions said they don’t need to eat and stuff. But MrYes was right about Morden’s dialogue. Either him feeling hungry is just some leftover humanity that hadn’t faded yet or Tech’s old quotes have been superseded by the new lore (unless there’s newer info that I don’t know about):
Iris: Days. I’m surprised you haven’t realized you’re starving yet…
Morden: … I wish you hadn’t pointed that out. I guess I’ll try to do some fishing. Come on, let’s go aboard.
LOL I saw that question, honestly wonder if Vetex even read it all or if he just said what the hell sure. But that’s only the cloud curse and to be honest I don’t even know if the people in the Arcane universe know what CO2 or oxygen are
Honestly the fire curses shouldn’t even need it cause they wield a magic fire that basically doesn’t obey the laws of physics but I see what you mean. Though the original question asked about curse users in general and Vetex still said they need air, so it seems that it applies to all curse users

Sorry, but whos the 11 unknowns? Is it characters from the Seven seas?
Imagine when youre fighting dragons with curse in the dark sea, youre brutally injured then suddenly the Peacekeeper came in clutch to absorbs their curses

Kinda? They were basically an old concept of the strongest 11 beings in the verse, above even Arthur. We didn’t know all of them but off the top of my head Chaos was the first, Creation the second, the Peacekeeper became the eighth by the WoM era, Zeus and Poseidon were once the ninth before dying, and Freedrock was the eleventh.
But that concept has been retconned now (the characters are still canon though) and Arthur is once again strongest of the verse excluding entities like Chaos and Creation
Crazy how Theos and Freedrock known among the Sea clusters such as War seas and Seven seas, theyre the true legends. Some npc in Sky island (AO) said that there’s a religion where they pray for The Protector aka Theos, little did they know hes dead under the circumstances of mutation, a third mutation, aggressive kind of Phoenix magic.
p sure thats non canon
