Now even if we don't have much lore for them yet, I don't doubt that they'd involve a good deal of engineering as well probably adopting the technological advances of either Eorzea or Garlemald.

So here's my question. Do any of you have like sources I can use to brush up on Eorzean tech and magitek? I want to work that knowledge in via Kurt studying them however and whenever he can, through discarded literature or maybe even random tinkering with his axe on a "neutralized" vanguard. 

I mean as it stands, the way I'm having Kurt learn tech is through precision axe work and handbooks/operations manuals dropped by dead Garlean engineers whenever he's sent with a few others to maybe harass a patrol or installment or outpost. I'm pretty sure I'm stretching things with that method.

I could also try to draw on what I can remember from my engineering classes before I shifted out to an IT degree but I still think Hydaelyn has it's own way methodology when it comes to engineering things.

We have an out of commission Magitek Armour at the house... really, you should talk to me about this stuff

plus Nako tinkers around a bit, so we can discuss this further

Like all things Heavensward, for that matter... waiting is the name of the game. No need to rush it.
