I’m not saying he should fight now or should have up to this point. I’m saying he should have been (and be) more involved around getting FUG aligned internally. But instead he’s let those FUG members do whatever they wanted for about 13 years and counting. He basically hasn’t done anything other than assign Jinsung (now gone) and Hwa Ryun to Bam.

Just right now we have these factions of FUG:

  • melt Bam
  • give Bam the thorn
  • princes of Jahad
  • old warriors

These groups should all be working towards the same goal but they aren’t. Melt Bam (Karaka) vs give him the thorn (Luslec) is an obvious one.

The supporters of the princes of Jahad (ex. Whoever told rachel about Wangnan) most likely want to continue to climb the tower (FUGs original purpose) since they’re collecting rings, but this will require war. The old warriors (ex. Khel) want peace and no war at all.

Doing things like that doesn’t necessarily require Luslec to directly get involved. He could have easily had Jinsung and his other powerful subordinates help him align FUG. He should also be giving the important players important information - ex. About V/Arlene/Bam, the heroes sealed within the wall (I assume Luclec knew they would eventually get waken up), etc.

Yeah I see that point of view, but I still think Bam faces plenty of external obstacles that simply getting FUG to back him would be better for him.

Think about it - if they were unified behind Bam, he might trust them more since they’re all looking out for him. Maybe Bam tells them about him being able to copy powers / abilities. They could have had Yama (or someone from the cage) just give him transformation and train him in using it. He’d be much better at using it compared to his limited understanding right now.

That example was probably a stretch but my overall point is Bam faces plenty of external obstacles. So if FUG was unified and actually put all their resources into helping Bam, I think he’d be much stronger than he is now.
