also by the time you face the Marduk you know the lore is now Screwy

[Algester]

yeah supposedly only Blood's God Arcs are the only one able to touch this thing and blood arts should make any GE with the skill known fight it <_< are you saying that the Bias Factor 75-c is also capable of getting a higher form of Blood Rage? and that Engage is basically a more physical form of Evoke?

which means Ricardo and Clair shouldnt be able to fight this thing as I dunno arent they dosed with the same Bias Factor used in GE1? which means that they arent suppose to have access to Burst arts but blood arts?

Ingame Unwise but if they make an Anime those 2 will be sitting at the Ash Crawler.

Everyone gets updated per game, no surprise. They don't explain it but they eventually make everyone able to beat past monsters. Next game people will be taking on Ashborne without anti-devours.

Also no. Claire and Ricardo have Type-2 modified to have weak resistences against the ash to keep up with the AGEs. Check the Terminal.

which meant that somehow Friar's tech got leaked SOMEHOW... and that Blood Unit is still alive and kicking I'm now starting to think its in Dusty Miller where all the past cast are now maybe we get Ein's/Soma side story to see where they are now (what we know of Resonance Ops is that Alisa becomes the head of Far East Branch, and Kanon now has a 2nd gen god arc)

They have been off the radar for awhile now. I wouldn't be surprised if they died and main branch just looted their base for info.

Friar is a mobile sanctuary that got absorbed by the spirit tree in the events of GE2 so its somewhere in the Asian region, which results in the entire Blood unit being transferred to the far east branch maybe? the crux is there who ever maintains the Blood units God Arcs must have some info

[Selphea]

It probably has to do with the P73c/P53c factors, at least indirectly. The c factors help GEs adapt to the Ashlands, so it's not surprising that there's a factor that helps them resist Psions.

Just because Marduk is a Psion doesn't mean all Psions are Marduk. Similarly, just because Blood/P66 can resist and fight Psions doesn't mean it's the only way.

During the events of GE2 maybe it was the first way and only way discovered at that point. And Blood Arts were found to be retroactively compatible since Alisa and Ein/Soma can use them. Since then I'm sure Ein/Soma's done a lot of research and info sharing about Psions, Bias Factors, Aragami evolution and such between GE2 and GE3.

If you can make weapons out of a Kyuubi or Marduk they should be able to take them out. That's how the original God Arcs worked. Kill small monsters, make God Arcs, kill bigger monsters, make stronger God Arcs, Aragamis evolve and the power creep cycle continues.

by the time you meed Marduk which is the first Psion in GE3 the cast meets you also get to meet Chrome Gawain in Rank 5 which subsequently gets to Kyuubi also in Rank 5 which is a Psion soo... EH... true that Soma might be responsible for actually making most tech probably considered open domain

the GE1 cast getting blood arts was a retroactive result of the GE2 PC's Evoke ability they have to spend time hunting with the PC to get Blood Arts

[Homyak]

Actually any living being (human, god eater, age, aragami) can be engaged with each other.

Given Phym's godlike Engage I wouldn't be surprised if she awakens some kind of Arts for Claire/Ricardo eventually. One of Claire's post-game lines is about wanting to get better at fighting...

Well she's a 2nd Gen GE. If she continues training she might end up like other 2nd Gen GE from Dusty Miller.

I wouldn't be surprised. maybe it's because I'm tired but I remember Livie being basically a prototype AGE. A adaptive type God Eater that could adjust to any aragami and wield any God Arc. I wouldn't be surprised if that got out.

To be fair Fenrir isn't out to hog information to themselves. They want to save lives too. it could just as easily been sold information which would explain Soma's insane fortune.

I don't have the whole database unlocked so I have to ask, does anything from GE2 gets added to it? So far, from history to terms to everything I have unlocked, all I see is info related to GE1 and it's expansion, and then jumping to GE3 stuff. heck, I don't even see an entry on P66 here. Did they just forget GE2 existed? Or they jumped it intentionally?

Probably unrecorded. The main Branch likes to hide alot of things and if GE3 proved anything,it's that outside of Fenrir almost everyone cares more about money than securing eachother's safety.

Kind of vexing. I mean, Bloods started as a separate thing, but if I remember GE2 correctly, they got eventually absorbed by the far east branch, so their data should be there as well.

^ You 2 need to go back and research the lore for God Eater Online and God Eater Resonant Ops because they take place after GE2.
GEO takes place at the Himalayan Fenrir Branch and GERO takes place right at Fenrir HQ in Europe which is possibly the same Fenrir HQ you will go in GE3.
