  1. Ok so what I think is that the strongest Khaenrians might be as strong or slightly stronger than some archons but not all. I mean for example pyro archons have been human so comparing their strengths with talented Khaenrians might be fair but then if you think of archons like Ei and Morax than these two could surely raise hell upon Khaenriah by themselves I mean they’ve literally killed gods and if not all these gods were that strong at least some were bound to be powerful and mighty and these archons still came on top. So in comparison to some archons, other archons might in generally be far superior.

  2. Yea i quit Zzz bc its too much effort to get a featured. If they made the 1st one a guaranteed or made it easier id play. Genshin takes my lame gacha rate game and thats becoming less important. Hsr is reasonable and feels almost good.

  3. It could be Capitano is just an outlier, and we are putting too much stock into title. Being above one in title and rank doesn't mean you are above someone below in status unless we get a statement suggesting they ranked each other by strength.

  5. I don't know if anyone knows the answer but is there a special connection between Xilonen and Capitano? I find it strange that the latest story made it clear that out of all the cast he specifically protected her twice in 2 separate cutscenes? Does she have Khareniah eyes or maybe half Khareniah as the daughter/grand daughter or great grand daughter of Capitano? Or maybe the relative of a friend? Either way I think it would be great to have a playable character that is an actual father.

  6. Well just the Seelies have more power than any Archon. One reason I doubt Columbina is one. The Seelies power is, as they say, "on another level". And largely that's because they don't rely on weak elemental energy, but the good stuff, like Skirk or the "Sinners". Recall that Nibelung was only a serious threat after he got high on FK.

    Maybe Khaenri'ahn soldiers were like some 40K space marines, or the Marvel equivalent would be Asgardians. ie the regular units were "Modified" with enhancements, be they technological or magical. Presumably there were a few dozen if not a couple of hundred "Capitanos" defending Khaenri'ah. But they weren't loaded with FK. That is what makes the difference between Dain and the "Sinners". As such the Sinners might be a match for Seelies or Shades. After all they are credited with the power to destroy the world.

    Given all this, what I have long assumed is that the original fight of PO vs the dragons was a bit of a wipe out. Laughably easy. No Shades even needed.

    But you make a good point. Capitanos prowess suggests that the reason the Archons went to Khaenri'ah was not at all military. They simply wouldn't have mattered as a military force. Well we are hinted as much by Ei saying Makoto was the one they wanted, not her.

  7. When Mauvika said her and the Captain were equal in strength she might've been referring to without the gnosis' power given she'd already given that up. So that would be human Mauvika vs human Capitano instead of Archon Mauvika. No? Although given we know Capitano is on the level of gods anyway that might be unlikely unless Mauvika is also God level without being an archon.

  8. I’m tired of y’all calling Capitano a corpse…. My man got the cake and the muscles to prove that he ain’t a corpse.

    Not only that but Clothar was also rotting so i don’t think it’s a literal sense. Rather I think that the rotting is smth similar to Dain and the Black Serpent Knights in both the Chasm and Natlan…

  9. Khaenrian are different human breed.
    Human, through knowledge and such can unlock their true potential to become extremely strong. Such as Xbalanque, crimson witch, witchs, etc. So after unlocking their limiter do they still human? Personally i would call them "beyond human".

    Lastly, who is stronger? Its the one the writer want, as simple as that.

  10. but didn't Mavuika said she wasn't going all out as well? if this was Capitano's peak. then Mavuika's peak could defeat Capitano right? or was that just her trying to cover up and not lose face? and do u guys think Mavuika is same level as archons like Ei and Zhongli or Venti? coz if she is then yeahh that is a huge feat for Capitano to be able to go toe to toe.

    and not to mention he maybe have like a transformation of some sort to power him up. like Tartag with Foul Legacy. Signora with Crimson Witch. and Arlecchino with Cinder of Worlds. if Capitano also has that, than i guess he can defeat Mavuika. but if he doesn't, does that mean he can't fight archons like Ei, Zhongli or Venti?

    i hope i don't seem like disrespecting or anything. coz i don't really have an idea of how strong Mavuika is compared to archons like Zhongli or Ei who created Musoujin Gorge or the Guyun Stone Forest. so i just want to hear others' opinions.

  11. I can't believe I have to say this, but… Dainsleif is the Captain of THE ROYAL GUARDS (Black Serpent Knights). Now, I am by no means an expert of military, but in my country and most european countries, the Royal Guards are an elite force that specifically protects the monarch palace and its inhbitants.They are not the entire military, which in Khaenri'ah's case is called the Schwanenrittern (the Swan knights) and we know that because we find informations on the normal operating military in the Ruins of the Dahri in Sumeru. We know that Anfortas Alberich is the Knight Marshal and leader of the Schwanenrittern, and he becomes the ruling regent of the kingdom. So yeah, even if the Captain was a high ranking in the Schwanenrittern, that still wouldn't prove he knew Dain, cause they were in two entirely different forces. I'm not even convinced the Schwanenrittern were the entire army, considering they have another animal name, there are probably several of the Animal Knights and each of them is lead by a Knight Marshal. So, anyway, it's more likely that he would know Anfortas than Dains, which he would meet only marginally, considering the Black Serpents weren't on field that often and this is furtherly proved by the fact that it's implied that at some point the Captain left the city to fight outside and when he came back the city was already destroyed, while we know that Dain and his forces were supposed to protect the city, so ideally what happened is that when Knight Commander Hadura managed to stall the Abyssal forces, the Captain was there to help organize the escape of the people of Khaenri'ah into Sumeru, and if you think about it, it only makes sense that he found himself in Natlan, considering the door of Khaenri'ah borders Natlan. In the meantime, the Black Serpents were fighting in Khaenri'ah, stalling the monsters to make the evacuation happen. Now, I'm going to go on a limb here and say another thing: the lost soul calls him Commander, which means he WAS a Knight Commander, and that could mean that he is in fact Hadura, the traitor of the Schwanenrittern.

    Another thing is that Capitano may be the Bloodstained Knight, in which case, he is defined as a "knight of noble origin", so one that was born in the court and then became a Knight. it would fit with him being Hadura too, since the game implies that both the BK and Hadura died.

  12. Khaenri'ah was so powerful that with only one of their six heroes in combat were able to kill 4 of the 7 Archons and made Celestia go to sleep. Imagine the 5 Sinners joined the fight as well. It probably would have been GG

  13. I don't think we really have any idea how strong the Captain was. In the fight we saw, Mavuika said she was holding back so innocents wouldn't get hurt. So if she had used her full power she would have washed him. Now that she lost her power Kinich said she's about as strong as an ordinary vision bearer. And Mavuika said that if her and the Captain fought right now whoever wanted it more would win. So that means right now the Captain is just a very strong vision bearer (since Ajaw said Mavuika was still their strongest warrior, despite losing her full power).

    The Captain says he was much stronger 500 years ago, but we have no real way to gauge that strength. Mavuika just says she would have been more motivated to go all out if they had fought him back then (when they were both at full strength). But she never says it would have been a good match. She could have just been letting him save face. So even the full powered Captain might not be on the level of archons. Everybody just seems to want to pump him up for some reason.

  14. He was most likely like a general of the army or something and the soldiers that worked directly under him like Guthred probably were like his elites also high rank soldiers the outfit of Guthred seemed like he was a high rank soldier and capitano's armor is suitable for a Khaenri’an general idk why tf people even assume that he and his soldiers were just some randoms just cuz he didn't know Dain personally it doesn't make any sense also him casually calling him Dain I think mid or low ranked commander wouldn't address him that casually

  15. This made me curious what dainslef's curious if Diluc can "stand in his resolve" means. Is it he saw Diluc did everything flawlessly in combat that can compete with khaenriah and even him? Is it about power or only strategy

  16. The fact that Capitano doesn’t seem to be the strongest warrior of Khaenri’ah is frightening but he’s definitely one of the strongest ones considering the only archons that died are the two weaker ones (in terms of battle) in Egeria and Makoto and Rukhadevata died to save Irminsul. Mavuika, Ei who showed up later when much of the fighting was done, Zhongli, Venti and the Tsaritsa all survived so it’s not like there were too many archon level fighters from both the abyss and Khaenri’ah at the time.

  17. My interpretation of their strength levels

    Mavuika = Capitano (stated in 5.1 dialogue from Mavuika. Mavuika does says she was holding back, but Capitano also was holding back cuz he said it would be a “hollow victory” if he did go all out )

    Mavuika < Prime Capitano (5.1 dialogue states Capitano is a shadow of his former strength and still matched Mavuika)

    Mavuika with Renova’s Power = Prime Capitano (This one is hypothetical, it was said in 5.1 with Renova’s power you have strength that can easily surpass any archon, but that’s very vague narrative)

  18. Thats something that got me questioning too. Capitano was a Commander who was stronger than he is now. He could match an Archon with a fraction of his former power. They had Archon Level people running around everywhere and lost. Wtf happened 💀
