Love these guys, still using that scarf to this day. Thank you for your content. It's always a pleasant surprise to open my subscriptions tab and see that you've uploaded a new video. Keep up the good work!

[@ketsuekikumori9145]

When Leofard asked me where I kept the scarf, my immediate thought was "Shit! I don't remember! I think it's in the glamour dresser." Turns out I was right, so I'm still technically part of the Redbills.

[@Gloomdrake]

Where else would it be? Certainly not discarded

[@AusFirewing]

My Machinist and Gunbreaker glams both use replica sky pirate pieces, so I think it's only fitting that I wear the Rebill scarf with them.

[@mikoto7693]

@@AusFirewing Oh, wow I’ve seen replica sky pirate clothing for sale but never knew about their origins because I never stumbled across the side quest to start it. I never knew about the Redbills until this video but now I want to experience it myself. And to be honest my best guess would have been these items were a specific reference to the Sky Pirates of Final Fantasy twelve.
The truth is much better than I was imagining and I’m grateful for Synodic Scribe introducing me to this new lore knowledge.

Just finished HW alliance raid and the new Tataru sidequest in Endwalker. Perfect timing for this lore!

[@ChakatSilverstreak]

That scarf is an integral part of my Tanking glamour, but the beautiful part of that glam is that none of the pieces are job- or role-specific, so I can wear it with anything. Just have to remember to switch plates before doing anything with the Redbills. 😅

[@BiometalModelT]

Thumbs up to all the Redbills in the comments!

[@maxkid6446]

these pirates played a crucial role in the shadows of mcah

[@ToastyCoyote]

I still use that scarf to this day

[@Fenkuro]

YEAHHHHHHHHHH !!!! leofard is my favorite ff character and i've missed the redbills sooo much. this video makes me so happy to see !

[@korimiller379]

Rather enjoyed that arc string. Though there is a few battles that just irritate me to do. :) Still make use of the scarf myself on some jobs glamours.

[@gokuzxr]

Too bad we don't get their manacutter it looks way better than the one we got. (sorry Cid) also I wish cait sith could've gotten a role in the buried memory quest lines.

[@StainlessPot6]

Imagine having customizable manacutters.

[@SemekiIzuio]

Yeah we had the same thoughts as well when we played it. Maybe we might get it later down the line since we get random rewards with each patch even old content relation ones

[@mikoto7693]

@@StainlessPot6 Oh what a wonderful idea. I would love to have customisable mana utters or airships. As the partner of an airline pilot, I tend to notice flight in various games and the manacutter was a nice surprise because it turns my WoL from rider of some creature (usually a griffin) into a pilot. I find it way more amusing than I should given I’m not a pilot, but there you have it.

[@coreylayfield4570]

I just finished this as you posted it

[@ccmegalodon84]

Salutations fellow Redbills! And thanks for the lore video as always @synodicscribe

[@AngelaRichter65]

Is it horrible that I'm humming I am a Pirate King from Pirates of Penzance while he reads names?

[@donaldleewarner3868]

Hooray for Redbills! A pirate life for me!

[@StCrimson667]

Yay! Just in time for Playframes's playthrough of Shadow of Mhach! :D

[@jacobybarra907]

Where would I got unluck this questline? I'd love to partake in it!

[@Metrikon9000]

Can I trade my Island Sanctuary for a Sky Pirate Haven? Please?

[@Gloomdrake]

You're the warrior of light, you can find a way to make your island fly

[@illidarishinku2386]

new video! :D

[@Sparklespeed]

Awesome!

[@SemekiIzuio]

Wait are we already in HW lore. I need one for Nymph and SCH questline... D:

[@dakotadoyle7573]

Redbills huh.... So when's the Understanding the Shoebills lecture?

[@SemekiIzuio]

Yes please! I saw them everywhere in ShB and Ryne interacting with one lol

[@lajohnson8588]

[@J.G-Fate]

[@StarshadowMelody]

Oh is that how that's pronounced?
I friggin' hate french.
