I'm claiming that Twili have a weakness to sunlight just like vampires did. I never said that Twili are weak to all light, which is what you are strawmanning. I'm then arguing that because Midna has a resistence to sunlight, that she is similar to an evolved vampire. Then I argue that because the life force of the gods affects her through her resistance, it would also affect an evolved vampire. By stronger than sunlight, I mean it pierces the resistance of a being with resistance to sunlight.
Why not? Kain is both a being of darkness and quite evil. Actually, regardless of the fact that Kain would be affected, he still would be affected because of his alignment. So yeah, lose-lose for Kain.
Nah, they sealed away [ccolor=red]great magic[/color], which took the form of the Fused Shadows. Since the Dark Interlopers where eventually banished to the Twilight Realm and became the Twili, this was before twilight existed as it does now. It was dark magic before it became associated with twilight.
And, as it turns out, Ganondorf corrupted the Twilight Realm.
YouTube video0:47, "Bathed in that light, all people were pure and gentle...
But things changed once that foul power pervaded the world."It seems that when the Sages sent Ganondorf to the Twilight Realm, it became corrupted under his influence.
It's blast of air being shoved away by TK, otherwise it wouldn't be visible as the shockwave. But regardless, Kain can't do that, either.
No, his magical light is designed not to harm vampires, and when was Kain not burned by a torch? But you're wrong there, as mist tends to get burned off by sunlight as the water that forms it evaporates. It doesn't usually last past mid day.
Ha, nice try. That fading thing of Kain's takes more than half a second, but maybe less than one. Zant's is quicker, as is his movement speed. But really, are you trying that argue that Zant won't be able to do what he's already been shown doing? In, game, Zant often teleports behind Link, once he draws his swords.
8:44 and onwards. Zant is tactical, if insane.
Zant covers more distance in a similar time, so he's slightly quicker than Kain is. I don't even know what you're talking about with the mist thing.
Oh, wait, so lifting Dangoro in gameplay makes in unusable? Well, I guess that just invalidates all of Raziel's strength, and the dimsensional teleport by your own argument. Toonforce is still not a valid argument. As for Ganondorf, we know he was inside the castle when it exploded, and there's not much evidence suggesting he was intangible at all, but if he is, no one in LoK could hit him.
Uh huh. K', I guess I'll just let Moo handle himself, he's good enough to do so.
Kain is not faster than anyone in Hyrule can react. He'll be vulnerable to a gale boomerang, light spirit, or TK blast like that anyway.
Ive refuted all your points so many times, but the problem is your making up BS half the time without evidence. In this case your assuming that just because Vampires have evolved past their weakness to sunlight, and Midna has resistance to sunlight (not sure ive seen other twili burn up in sunlight but w/e) that their similiar and will both be harmed by light spirits. Problem is Lok vampires are only harmed by Sunlight, until youve proven Light spirits can harm Vampires the same way vampiric weakness to sunlight does (only ofc to higher level) then your point drops dead. Who says the resistance even attempts to resist the light spirits powers if their not even using sunlight?
All ouve shown me is that twili, like the twilight the light spirits can push aside can also be affected by light spirits.
No hes not, not at all. Hes not evil.
Light spirits only sealed over an unkown time and together one portion of magic and you think this is usable agains loK? in any useful area? lol....so Raziel casts a fireball and it takes all 4 of them to stop it, and over na unkown amount of time seal it into an object...lol, in the meantime vastly powerful sorcerors beyond light spirits wipe out Hyrule.
Shoving TK, e.g. not grabbing it like Midna would have to.
When did I say only his magical light? and its not "designed" not to harm vampires, it just does not because sunlight is the vampiric weakness, not the light given off my fire, light torches, glyph energy etc. Your reaching in the hope that a weakness of the twili against light sprits will work against beings completly diverse and whos weakness "used to be" specifically sunlight.
It doesnt get "burned off", it simply becomes more mist until all its vapour is gone. Point is, Kains not going to be anywhere long enough in the form of mist for the weather process to finally evapourate him, not that it could, he excists in sunlight and mist in the series.
Watching the gameplay of that Zant video, it seems hit and miss where he teleports. Rarely behind, more slightly to the left or right.
Toonforce has always been an excellent argument, you claiming it invalid because it unravels the math you want to use in an area where physics is ignored does not help you. Do we? how do we know that when not long after he seems to have made his way up the hill as his usual Ganondorf form holding the Twilight helmet in hand?
Based on feats, yes he is. And all those things take more time than it does Kain to go from flesh to mist.
