Fair enough, never said I wouldn’t do it either
dang so the mc is just weak asf 
in BOTH games too…
AO’s main character: Mostly beat up weak randoms and only has a couple of real fights under their belt which also roughed them up quite badly.
WoM’s main character: Amongst the strongest magic users of today at their peak.
AA’s main character: Fought multiple powerful magic and curse users to the death straight from level 1, beat one of the strongest curse users ever, the same guy who destroyed the world while clashing with the strongest mage user in history, then stole his curse and used it to destroy the curses so their powers couldn’t be used again and created a literal fucking continent.
Conclusion: Arcane odyssey’s main character is a fraud and weak asf.
AA’s mc was out there clashing with crazed wizards and possessed cursed chieftains while AO’s mc was beating up bandits and a level 20 mage who had streamer luck. (didn’t even kill her just beat her up badly enough for her to run)
ehhh we’re still in the second sea of the game and we’ll fight a curse user on chapter 10 appearently, meanwhile peacekeeper only fought ramses and that guy was undead and couldnt use the full power of his curse
we’re quite literally doing the same with allanon, calvus, ivar and upcoming bosses
the most powerful enemies the wom mc fought were the exiled and the minotaur in the storyline we got before vetex started working on ao
you mean the level one crazy wizards at newgrounds island who could only cast basic blast spells?? also id argue iris is more powerful than marua
I hope we don’t fight them alone, it’d be absolute horseshit writing, there’s no way we’re doing it alone.

idk i think we’re just upscaling curse users too much.. i know they’re meant to be really strong because curses are naturally stronger than magic but icl my bar has always been set low after pk just beating a dude in the first sea that had the powers of the sand curse, even if weakened it was still a sea curse
Wholeheartedly I believe I speak for everyone when I say we all want to send Julian to Wyoming
i like glass magic and i like his curse so i dont mind him staying for a little longer but yeah i think we’ll eventually beat his ass
We’re not upscaling anything, curse users are really strong, it’s the writing about them that is bad.
We’re still at base magic level, we nearly got beaten to a pulp by a metal magic user who wasn’t even a big threat in the grand scheme of things, and then us having to fight a curse user relatively shortly after?
It just seems like the AO MC is getting power scaled up far too much in too little amount of time.
As per the usage of curses, they are basically magic but it’s like you’re made of the magic the curse is derived from, giving you FAR greater control.
We could barely survive against a guy who had so good control of metal he made an entire mech.
we’re not winning twin

idk dude, the writing is very weird at times like when beringer who had the cloud curse was beaten by argos and maybe some order initiates along with elius who are all relatively weak
even if beringer has a weaker curse he’d logically be stronger than them all yet he still lost and got stabbed by a devourer
i wouldn’t be surprised if we actually won against a low tier curse user in ch10
yeah i know what curses do
we still won though and tbh i dont think the story injury was a big deal, like wasn’t it just 20% of our max hp or smth i mean i dont even know if we can use story injuries as arguments because it might just be a gameplay thing like awakenings

Maybe if Silas wasn’t such a dumbass and ran 4vant we’d canonically stand a better chance
That proves even further that curse users are badly written despite their factually superior powers at our current level.
Randal is the only curse user in my books who I don’t consider a total fraud
I don’t get the problem with killing a low level curse user, it’s probably going to be someone who JUST got the damn thing + got a pretty shitty one at that. And Silas has shown that he can punch way above his weight level.
It was to explain my point in a wee bit more detail so I wouldn’t just be saying shit out of nowhere.
20% seems like it is far too low seeing as we got crushed against the wall by a heavy metal pole, it was likely higher but was reduced for convivence[1]
If we don’t take story injuries into account, we’d still be incredibly hurt as we still got smashed against a wall, it’s not like we have super healing, we’re hurt.
Even if we did manage to heal in the lore-time it took to reach Sameria, we still struggled majorly against Ivar, and hence would likely lose against any curse users, even Julian, as much as I hate to say it.
In a Vetex game?!!?! ↩︎
although, i dont know if “shitty” curses really exist if Wotan is out there being the top guy with wood out of all things..
how much lead is in your drinking water
thank you for understanding that curses are actually really fucking powerful and that we’re nowhere close to beating a curse user
elius tells us the cloud curse is one of the weaker ones
i still want to believe we could take on julian, like i wouldn’t be mad if vetex explained why ivar is near his level even if one has the glass curse and other is an experienced mage
some magic users could be stronger than some curse users if they’re experienced enough (no i’m not taking theos into account)
