I've only done 3 cities VW I-III (have not done IV kills yet) and will try to find enough people selling mats soon to try and confirm some of these Guardian of the Void not being needed reports

I just completed Dumuzis from the -1 version using the 30 coins, 100 die and 100 residue.
I equipped it and trotted off to Xarcabard(S), even used VS on the way, went to WoE and touched the only ??? in the zone that I could find, and it was directly north of the main conflux like the description says. I got Nothing out of the ordinary.
I did not see any blank targets when tabbing around, did I miss something?
Can anybody with a no VW but got Victory Smite anyway explain a bit more? Was it the Dumuzis-1 > regular Dumuzis plan? A Vere? When?
Also note that I only have Sandy's Tier III abyssite. I'll give it another shot after making it IV with the others, but before beating the tier IV bosses.

Ya, that's why I want to hear more about these claims for not doing any VW but still perma unlocking VS. Something is either different, or I don't even know

Confirmed I needed Guardian of the Void before anything would happen at the ???. Still interested in hearing more about these other claims

Did you consider that they may have had a verethragna, those requirements seem to only apply to woe weapons.

I asked but nobody confirmed. That's my guess as to the what's happening, but it doesn't do anyone with a dumuzis-1 any good

To jump in on this, with the introduction of the displacer item to weaken the NMs, anyone have an idea of soloability of the mobs to get from never doing VW to being able to unlock VS?

Super easy. I had a WHM mule to help without displacers up to tier 3, then just went solo on the tier IV used 5 displacers and it was a joke.

Thanks! You don't need to proc just to advance through, right?
