Then would Monado purge negate pacemakers, glasses, and all the other "buffs" as well? Like I said before, I'm okay with abilities, as long as we define them, but what do we do about technology/tools? We can't just negate one and not look at the others, but at the same time, it could create some ludicrous results, such as people dropping dead, due to pacemakers suddenly being negated. as example, let's use a Spartan. They are augmented with biomechanical and genetic augmentations. Would those be negated as well? Of course, you would end up killing a Spartan if that was the case, especially since you would affect their very bones. Would it be considered a trait, or a buff, considering that it does increase their abilities, Then again, you'll end up with really strange effects, such as Ceramic Carbide being breakable. What I'm trying to get at is that some characters are so intertwined with their "buffs" that they are a part of them. Would The Monado affect night vision goggles and glasses, considering that they help you see?

I really think affecting science is a bad thing, not because of it negating abilities, but because it would be affecting things that would be considered tools and physiology, but that if we ignore them, the dilemma could create some odd results.

If the Monado really does affect tools in Xenoblade, then give us proof. Show us in a video, or something else. Yes, there are Mechons, but they are a blend of science and magic, aren't they?

Perhaps it's how I view tools, but I simply see them as having their own inherent uses, and that their inherent ability is not directly buffing the user like magic would. The tools' abilities are simply a part of their nature.

You see why I would be confused and hesitant about it, right?

@katrix
Contrary to what you would think: the monado is weak in offense.

@s121

I already defined what abilities it affects in a prior post, straight from wiki

Battle arts.

Added to the fact that Youkais would have their physical resilience sealed alongside their abilities, all there left for Shulk to do is to cut them once and that's it.

Or we could have the physiology of the Youkais and-

Wait that means...
Reimu Marisa Sakuya and other humans would just be that... Humans...
which means one shot from Monado will...



@Cuckoo
As long as Shulk stays in our side I'm ok.

I'm just worried about Jack and his Monado.

@wriggs

Jack has Monado I
You have nothing to worry about.

Unless your a killer robot.

Based on the fighter games of touhou, i see nothing they need to worry about.

I'm not worried about the person wielding the Monado, but the people fighting besides him. If it was just a fight one vs one I guess it would take something like 10 minutes for Zexion to be defeated. If there were someone else there however it would maybe take just a minute or less.

@Cucoo

So it won't affect "buffs" and abilities granted from technology? That's what I was talking about.

It's just that when you guys were talking about negating the teleportation module that Shulk and Edward's enemy had, along with what you told Wriggle, I saw it as the Monado affecting tools, such as the teleportation module. How I see it, their enemy has the ability to pull that weird arms ability, then he has the teleportation device as a tool, a machine used to teleport.

I think I found the reason why it needs to affect people in some different way. Luxord have a very interesting ability, time manipulation. This is his health bar. If he loses this, he loses his health bar which means that he dies.
