Interesting thing about the paths is that they are rigid, but they can also be flexible. One can focus on multiple paths quite easily especially those who follow the warrior paths as they can perform other tasks during times of peace in between during or between training. There is also a great deal of variety on how one traverses a singular path. Using the warrior path for example again one can control how they fight, what physical traits they train, and more can be decided by the individual.
As far as I understand it the thing is that you don't follow several paths at the same time, a warrior would use all his time to train in his chosen aspect, a waiter would try to become a perfect waiter, an artist to become the greatest artist. Only after you have been fed up with a certain path you would switch and Eldar will become fed up with a path after a while. Actually one of the worst/tragic things that can happen is that one doesn't get fed up. The whole Idea is that Eldar are quite extreme in their emotions and Craftworlders will concentrate with laser tight focus on a goal, so that they don't get tempted by their more darker desires.
@@beastalchemistVA haha yeah I guess even Space Elves enjoy their nap. Great work to you and everyone else that helped make this video. I really enjoyed it!
If you ever do a video about Ork hierarchy, then I think Da Red Gobbo himself deserves to make an appearance at the very bottom, even below Squigs and Snotlings (Kinda like how C'tan shards were at the bottom of the Necron hierarchy video). He is after all an ontological manifestation taken on by/title given to those who seek to upend the hierarchy in its entirety
I’m going to sound pissy, but the dark eldar act they way they do not to “appease” slaanesh. They are different from the craftworlders in that soulstones do not work oh them, giving them no refuge from slaanesh upon death, and slaanesh is constantly siphoning their souls away. Meaning they are on a constant timer. They act the way they do partly because, let’s be honest, they like it and don’t want to change, and because they have found a way in so acting to siphon off emotions from their victims and replenish what slaanesh siphons off. As much as they are absolutely horrible individuals, it is part of their way of surviving.
Superb video full of really interesting eldar lore! Just one minor nit pick on the Path of the Warrior. The final battle against Chaos is called Rhana Dandra which means "The End of all Days", and where every Phoenix Lord will perish, being Fuegan the last to fall. The Rioghile Bhlar is just a battle where all the Phoenix Lords gather to fight, but it doesn't mean that battle is the final one. Other than that, really good job on this video!
Mourners and celebrators have been a thing in human societies, but having to have someone celebrate or mourn for you kind of sucks. And unlike the Drukhari the Assuryani actually tried to stop the debauchery of their species before the fall.
Dame imagine one who learns all the paths and each of the sects, even one who at least studied what the path of damnation is. They’d be a truly wise individual and I wonder if they’d be less arrogant?
Wait... wait wait wait... Tzeentch demons sometimes try to find ways to craft ships in the warp right? The end result is they hit real space and dissolve. Slaanesh is always eating Eldar, like those who walk(ed) the path of the shaper...right? soooo, why hasn't a Slaaneshie demon ever told a Tzeentch demon how to do it?
Some worship slannesh so it’s quite common from some exile be working for demons of slannesh or even some emperor children who keep him safe from his other brothers in turn for their services . There is also geenstelers Eldar being normaly infected Eldar who got the gernslter kiss
I think a potential path for the Asuryani is The Path of The Smith. There's got to be *_someone_* who makes the vast weapons & armor The Eldar uses, or at least oversees sections of the automated protection lines, to make sure those who're on the front lines stays safe and alive.
Bone singers can make wraithbone weapons for the Eldar. But you are right about the other equipment. Who makes that exactly? I would like to learn more!
I would probably say No: 1. Humans don’t nearly live as long as Eldar so they have less time to reach an Eldar’s level of mastery. 2. Humans nearly as fast or agile as an Eldar is, so they probably can’t physically make the cut. 3. Eldar are generally pretty xenophobic so even you wanted to emulate the Aspect path their reaction is probably going to range from: “Hahaha, the Mon’Keigh thinks it’s capable of being an aspect warrior, that’s hilarious” to “The Mon’Keigh is denigrating our Aspect paths, kill it for the audacity of think it could be one of our equals.”
@@somerandommen Wow he did I didn’t know the Emperor himself did that I’m still kinda new to 40k lore but from what I’ve read the Emperor was actually rather fond of the Aldarei so why is it that the Imperium still hate them like they hate all other Xenos?
@@seangray6131 The Emperor respected them, especially Eldrad, but ultimately he viewed them as failures which Mankind could learn from, and possibly save from extinction if we completed our other goals first (but he viewed most xenos like that, outside the Orks). Overall the average Human relationship to the Aeldari is complex. On one hand, the Imperium has allied with the Aeldari more than any other race. If you see a xenos and a human together, and they're not fighting, the xenos is probably an Aeldari. On the other hand, the general arrogance of the Aeldari and the abundance of Drukhari leaves a horrible impression for average humans. I'd say that the Aeldari tend to be hated slightly less than other xenos, but the humans who hate the Aeldari are much more passionate about their hatred than humans who hate other races.
@@Warmaster2001 thats the joke, both sides are bull headed as f@ck and never concede, only Iyanden has seriously started cooperating with the imperium and even then only after being half munched by the tyranids
The Eldars biggest problem is that they cannot really fight in the scale Warhammer exists at (due to a variety of reasons), so they can't really participate in any true conflict. Or well, they shouldn't. Eldar straight up can barely replace any of their loses. As master fate weavers, they should avoid war at all cost, as death in war is certain and every dead eldar is an irreplaceable loss, yet they HAVE to go to war as it's WARhammmer. Eldar just don't make sense to me y'all
There are still hundreds of billions of Asuryani alone, possibly more. They absolutely have enough numbers to wage war on the scale of 40K. Like dude, there's only one-million Astartes.
The difference is that the astartes pull from trillions quintillions probably quintillions who will reach the age at which they can undergo astarte's initiation within 10 years add humans typically have in between 2 to 3 children in our current times imagine what it is if the imperium demands citizens have more children like you could have families of probably I don't know if the 1800s or anything to go by like 20 to 30 children so what's the birth rate of the eldar what's the maturation time as well@@somerandommen
@@squgieman They can't produce more geneseed. Every marine who dies in battle and never has their body recovered is a permanent loss. The Astartes are way harder to reproduce than the Aeldari, who take only 5-10 years longer than humans to reach maturity. Also the Elves in Warhammer Fantasy, who are implied to be a very similar species to the Aeldari (if not the same species), reach adulthood around 20-25.

Well, this was different. You rarely get any insight about eldar like this. Good job.

@@governmentghost01I concur.

This is fantastic! I think the Eldar need more love and attention. The drawings really help me visualise these paths

Damn. Now asuryani eldars are look more closer to humans. So many similarities.
As a lover of Eldar lore. This was a god-send.
Honestly Slaanesh aside being an Aeldari on one of the civilian paths seems really kush. I wanna be a near immortal spacebird tamer
Or a person who sleeps
@@beastalchemistVA haha yeah I guess even Space Elves enjoy their nap. Great work to you and everyone else that helped make this video. I really enjoyed it!
It would be neat seeing their dark cousins of Commorragh be represented next. Like different Drukhari societal classes, perhaps?
Oh yes, I want that.
I love the eldar thanks for this amazing video
These little drawings for etch path are so cute!

Ah the elder video is finally here
The path of the Mourner reminds me of the ad for a guy who would cry at funerals, and for more money would throw himself in the coffin.
The best path is the path to the grave. This post brought to you by the Invaders space marine chapter. The greatest elf haters in 40k.
Awesome!!
Path of the Weeb - Controls Weeb emotions from over consuming anime content. They are also the ones that control anime content, so no H-anime
I realy do like these videos
According to The Emperor, the best path is the Path of The Eldar Hooker
So path of Damnation aka being a drukharian?
I think a potential path for the Asuryani is The Path of The Smith.
There's got to be *_someone_* who makes the vast weapons & armor The Eldar uses, or at least oversees sections of the automated protection lines, to make sure those who're on the front lines stays safe and alive.

hell yea!
nice video
Eldar mentioned 🙄🙄🙄
is there a path of the gamer?
Can humans go on any of these paths?
I would probably say No:

2. Humans nearly as fast or agile as an Eldar is, so they probably can’t physically make the cut.

A human psyker might find a benefit to these paths. Remember, the Paths are mainly meant for the all-psychic Eldar race to stave off demonic influence
The Emperor went on the paths of the warrior, and ended by training with an autarch. So, technically, yes.
