Hey, first post in this specific subforum. I've noticed a LOT of more-than-superficial parallels across the areas and duties of Dawntrail. This is a SPOILERIFIC channel so you have been warned.

Yak Tel :

Town Ix'braaq : A community of wrothgar not unlike Slitherbough, although created in very different contexts.

Jak Tiika Wilderness: Literally a re-spelling of Raktika Greatwood, even has a forest so dense it blocks out the sun


Shaaloani:the region itself is a parallel to Ahm Areng's western half, replete with wild west shanty towns, mines, and train tracks.

Train arc: the literal flashback with the train worker trio

Tender Valley: the second to last pull before the final boss contained reolored trash from Qitana Ravel, in place of the Ronkan Dreamer was a recolored model of Lozatl, the dungeon's first boss, but pinned in place like the Dreamer amid the lasers from the arena. The final boss is the Great Serpent, who is a theme for the crafting/gathering tribe quest in the Greatwood.


Originics:

The first boss: was quite literally a harder retelling of Eros, the final boss from Holminster Switch

The middle boss was a retelling of either Livia's Ghost from Aitia or Scathch (so the parallels become weaker for this dungeon with her).

The final boss: a harder retelling of E1N from the post quest of shadowbringers
