Sentients can adapt to damage by making their "flesh" or whatever the hell they're made of have different properties, like being harder to cut, puncture, etc. But they can only do that so much before the material gets weak and dies for good. Where do I get that from? Well Unhow, is consciousness is still present now, even after the destruction of his body, and that could apply to other extremely strong Sentients like him.

LoliPunch Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 (edited) So I wanted some hints at what 'The Sacrifice' would be, instead I found this gem. I went back and redid "The War Within" and when you are on the first part in Lua, the custscene plays, during this cutscene Teshin pulls his sword on you and you can see the blade, guard and hilt. Its the exact same sword that Umbra Excal picked up in the big Umbra Reveal. I have some pictures I'll post below, they might not be the highest quality but....yeah! So here's my findings! ^_^ Also, I'm starting to think we are focusing on 'Sacrifice' to much, maybe we should focus on this line from the Umbra trailer 'If you could trade, would you?' Maybe this means switching from following Lotus to following Teshin? Might be a stretch but still in the realm of possibilities.

-Krism- Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 All we can say for now is that it's just a Nikana, or maybe a Dax Nikana. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Myscho Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 (edited) I think whole Sacrifice trailer is about Ballas offering dying Dax soldier a life, in sacrifice being Umbra, so thats why he use Dax Nikana Edited July 17, 2017 by Myscho Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duckboy3825 Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 I actually noticed that as the first time I watched the trailer I noticed this. Mostly likely from a fallen Dax during the fall of the Orokin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redeyedtreefrog Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 I notice you haven't posted any pictures of the nikana available to us tenno... I've compared the two, and as near as I can tell, the generic equippable nikana, teshin's nikana, and the nikana we see in the video all use the same model. To paraphrase sigmund freud: sometimes a nikana... is just a nikana. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To paraphrase sigmund freud: sometimes a nikana... is just a nikana. Seeing as he not once refers to the sword as a Nikana, I'm not sure he's even aware that it's available in the game. He probably doesn't even know it's called a Nikana. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xardis Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 Fun fact, as far as I can tell, there are only 2 types of Nikana in the game, normal and Prime, Dragon one has only a diffrent scabbard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StinkyPygmy Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 (edited) So, you've deduced that Teshin uses a regular old Nikana and that the sword in the umbra trailer is also a regular old nikana, the very same nikana that is already available to players. Pardon my sarcasm but: Bravo, Sherlock. Edited July 17, 2017 by StinkyPygmy I couldn't resist being sassy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Ringed-Umbra- Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 4 hours ago, Corial said: Hypothesis; If they told us that umbra will be at tennocon, would have the crowd screamed and cheered like when it was revealed? From my own personal opinion I think DE has used metaphors to hint towards this new content that was finally revealed. For example the teaser at the end of devstream 94 teased both next cinematic quest and day night cycle of Ostron colony. Yes I know that, I just meant that they can be doing it as a surprise, exemple, it would be awesome releasing with the solar eclipse (21 aug), but would be extremely unlikely, so they say No we won't and then boom, surprise we lied there you go.

Wyrmius_Prime Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 (edited) Nikana's base colors are the exact same. People are once again making a way too big of a number on this. No wonder why every single thing ends up being disappointing when people start building hype from nothing. Just stop...
