@wrigs
Wait how would that explain the vision part?

@s121
Ya...but there was nothing to tell shulk: let's settle this later, lets keep moving.

Also: Monado and Monado Purge can solve anything againt this thresh-like guy.

[Kristia]

Hm.. can the spectre be beaten by a mindbreaking tactic?

like making him lose his mind with blabbering or something related?

[S121]

@Kristia

It is my understanding that he is the mind breaker, not the "mind breakee."






@Wriggle

Check my post above when you have the time.








@Cucoo


Then good luck with that. He might be immune to it.

[WriggleRid3r]

@Cuckoo
By giving him immunity to magic abilities, it prevents the Monado (I think) and its' power to foresee the future involving him.

@Pringles
Kristia is close

@Krispia
Hmm... you're getting theeeere

[Cucoo5]

@s121
What about magic interference?

@wriggs
Monado isn't what grants the visions. Plus the only way to disable the Monado is the Apocropha, a massive generator which emits a specific Ether wavelength which counter's the Monado. But even then, Shulk's will was stronger and he was still able to use The Monado.

Monado Purge can seal all abilities and removes any form of buff and prevents any buffs from being applied even after the seal wears off.

@Wriggle

I have a feeling John's not going to get a chance to do much in this fight either, is he? -_-;






@Cucoo

What about it?

[WriggleRid3r]

@Pringles
All in good times. There are 3 more guardians to go through for the first floor.

[S121]

@Wriggle

I think I'm just pissed that Cucoo was pissed.

I have a habit of reflecting moods, so I tend to either become passive-aggressive, or just flat out aggressive towards almost everyone.


I'ma go mod Minecraft for a couple minutes...

[Cucoo5]

@s121
Ah you edited.

No, Monado Purge is the counter to any abilities like that.
Example: Telethia cannot be hit while their mind read aura is active.
Monado Purge does exactly what its name implies and ALSO seals their abilities and auras.
I would assume Thresh has a similar case except replace mind read aura with spirit aura which is similar.

[S121]

@Cucoo

Well the magic interference got there first and countered his Monado.

They interfered with his magic as soon as he entered the library.

"It's just a flesh wound" - Patchouli 2014

And I can always have him reconciling with the party after [EDIT]the spectreThresh is defeated.

[Cucoo5]

@s121

Its not magic. In xenoblade theres a scientific explanation to it. Im not going to explain Ether energy right now, but the only counter to it is ether energy.
And Shulk's will is what powers the Monado, and when his mind is set, NOTHING can prevent him from using the Monado.

[S121]

@Cucoo

It would be another science vs magic debate (LAEVATEINN vs Mirror Shield), and we both know how that turned out.

[Cucoo5]

Ya...
But in this case it works in the fact that it's a very specific energy wavelength to knock out the monado. His other abilities like light heal and shadow eye would be knocked out, but not the Monado.

With Monado, in the end it doesn't matter, its a question of how strong is the will of a man to protect the those he cares for vs anything.

[S121]

@Cucoo

I was just trying to give you a reason why Shulk couldn't have defended Patchouli, but if that's the case, then he has no excuse for standing around. -_-;

You just got rid of my reason, so now you have no reason why Shulk did nothing.




I'm going to go do something now, before I get too worked up. In the end, it's because I don't handle hostility well, so I'm sorry if I might have snapped at you a couple times.
