RWBY & RT General Discussion Thread (V1)

So not only
did Jaune get a shield grenade, but it can also return to him via Gravity Dust? And we still haven't seen Nora's upgrade.... Ok now I'm really hopeful that Nora goes full Classics/Myth Mode with Magnhild this season:



Also I note that they plan to bring the civilians to the crater. I have been wondering for a while if maybe Team Good Guy's plan will be to what Ironwood did in reverse.
Ironwood: The timeline has changed. And so we must change accordingly. We are going to take our plan for Amity Tower and apply it to the city of Atlas. It was Oz's plan in a former life. But he didn't take it far enough.

They have the Winter Maiden now. If they can sneak into Atlas and get to the Vault they can control the staff and use it to bring Atlas down to the ground. If the Staff can safely reunite Atlas with the ground without smooshing anything then that could be the perfect way to complete the evacuation in the blink of an eye. And with Atlas back on the ground it opens up the possibility of using the Staff for the defense of the reunited city (aka ALL of Atlas) such as by powering force-fields instead of lifting. Or getting the Relic out of Salem's reach and completing the Amity Project in a twofer by using the Staff as a CCT tower/lifting Amity.

Wouldn't landing Atlas on the crater smoosh all the civilians? Interesting idea regardless, though given how shortly after the last this volume is starting I am unsure they've had the time to consider anything so detailed as of yet, but landing Atlas safety to create an anti Salem/Grimm barrier does seem like the safest bet.

If it was just dropped down yes.
But this is a DIVINE Relic we're talking about here. We have seen a spirit of Knowledge stop time just to have more time to chat with people. If given the order to "reunite Mantle and Atlas" or something like that as it's one task who knows what kind of bullshit the Staff could come up with to make that possible without Destroying anything.


Alternatively just lower it almost to the ground and then extend some ramps or ladders down or something.

I'm just gonna say it, FNDM.

Y'all seriously NEED to tune into the RWBY panel during RTX at Home next week. We have some truly incredible stuff in store for you.

New partners. New products. New surprises. I am dying to share all the big big news that the team will unveil. Trust me: your bodies are not ready.

Wednesday, 9/16 @ 12pm CT. Be there. You won't want to miss it!

XO,
Your Friendly Neighborhood Licensing Guy

This is the quality content I signed up for. "We're sacrificing our bodies for you! If this doesn't make you like our content what will?" 😂



Pretty good news IMO, since shipping costs has been one of the biggest barriers for me in terms of buying RT merchandise and shipping prices from the UK to Norway is a lot more forgiving than from the US. Especially since my country isn't part of whatever trade agreements that let's RT occasionally offer free shipping to Europe during the holidays and other Sales.

Fair point there, though by the same token we don't know if the Creation Relic's personality is as nice as Jinn, but definitely a fair point.

Very informative, thanks, I hope my time zone lets me attend.

Oh my gosh XD

Hey that's neat, I wonder if there's a digital one I can guy?

Watts is a gullible bastard

That was a solidly interesting piece to be sure, though I am unsure if Salem disregards Watts as much as the writer implies I definitely think their overall point is excellent and apt.

Also this is a good piece on the background details that show Marrow's Struggle to get where he is: Also put's line to Weiss in more context.

I disagree with Sir-adamus a little on that last point, because expecting Ozma to be reasonable about rescuing Salem from that tower at this point is just mean. :p

As for the sack babies, I totally believe that CFVY and STRQ happened. RWBY and JNPR were interrupted by the Vytal Tournament. This is in no way because I refuse to imagine the horror that is Cinder and co trying to handle a sack baby. Even at his V2 and 3 doucheest, Mercury doesn't deserve that trauma.

Your call, I'm siding with him on this one, though not all the way XD

Haha, fair point and insights XD

Oh my gosh that'd be a hilarious mental image, I image though they'd just foist the job off on Emerald, with Neo disappearing Mercury either getting really weird or just saying he'll drop kick it and Cinder being like "No." and walking away for 'reasons'.
