With enough resource and manpower of course. Just look at Warhammer, human nations there ( Empire, Bretonia, Kislev, Grand Cathay,...) is able to goes toe to toe against Chaos and it's infernal army ( Which is worse than whatever we have here in Arknights) despite their ancient technology. ( For example, Chaos Champion. In Warhammer 40000 the Imperium military have to use tank a size of a villa, or mech a size of skycrapper buiding just to kill it)

There main strength being that they are difficult to kill and adapt to become immune to whatever killed them. Which eventually made them unstoppable ending all life except what was essentially an ARK.

In fact I think the gods of Sami even sided with humanity and we still lost. The feranmuts (the bestial gods) protect the last of civilization.

It was also stated that patriot went up to the north and killed demons himself at the ursus border in the walk in the dust event. He is so strong not because he is a wendigo but because he never lost. Not to demons, not to man, not to sarkaz

"The tree would migrate with them". Sami people built their settlements on and around said tree. So technically speaking, it's an organic mobile city, just like other cities in Terra.

The very first thing to do when coming to Sami: Go anyway from it

9:02 isnt the reason her house come alive is not because of sami, but because her house is made from nachzehrer tree(the tree that you fought in chapter 12, the tree that turn into a rot eater after destroyed).

Pretty insane lore here. At first I didn't even know what the enemies were actually supposed to be. Like drones are literally little black holes, I thought that is just a design choice. The only thing that you should fix is how you say "Wendigo" and "Engrossing" Not Wendingo, but WEN-DI-GO. 6:45 "engrossing" as in IN-GROW-SING 10:15

IIRC, Samivilinn should be a feranmut like Kjerag. Following the lore in which some Feranmuts rest (Or die) on the lands (And now mistaken as a mountain), like how where Kjerag carcass is now the holy mountain. Sami most likely is similar to Kjerag.

The quality of the video is really good ! keep it up :)

@FABKlNG

3 ай бұрын

There's not really a wrong way to start reading the story, the lore is dispersed throughout the nodes of IS#4 and character files that are associated with Sami (some info seemingly comes from random sources like Seige's Module description). BUT a good starting point is reading the lore archives from IS#4 like descriptions of collectibles which you can find in the lobby of IS#4, or the story of Typhon's Vignette event. If you're still kinda lost (which is understandable, the lore is very intentionally confusing to add to the mysticism), you can go to the wiki, here's the link: arknights.wiki.gg/wiki/Sami Thanks for watching!

you see, now i can share this video to my friends who DONT play arknights

nice video

Watching this at the dead of night was a bad idea 😂 Still, query: among the IS lores, which are the most frightening? I think people lean into the collapsals more because it’s new lore and it’s still mostly mysterious.
