If a handful of stone age human psykers fusing can created a being to rival the Chaos Gods then why don't the Eldar fuse and pimp smack Slaanesh? Why don't a handful of Orks fuse and dropkick Khorne off his throne? Why don't the Ethereals fuse?
If a handful of stone age human psykers fusing can created a being to rival the Chaos Gods then why don't the Eldar...
Well the ethereals don't fuse (or should I say GATTAI!) cause tau have no psychic presence.
Everyone else doesn't fuse because they are inferior to humans in every way.
>Well the ethereals don't fuse (or should I say GATTAI!) cause tau have no psychic presence.
They have a low psychic presence but there are more Ethereals than there were ancient shamans, so they should easily create a being more powerful than the Emperor.
>Everyone else doesn't fuse because they are inferior to humans in every way.
lol
The shamans did that back when it was still the peaceful and serene Realm of Souls, now that it's been distorted into the chaotic nightmare of the Warp, any fusing type thing you tried to do would likely turn out all twisted and wrong.
These were the most powerful shaman who had been reincarnating individually for some time. They combined themselves as one when the warp was still relatively calm and humanity was not Chaos focus.

Case in point, ynnead, who is totally not slannesh. You can tell because she has... purple horns and... consumes eldar souls
>why don't the Eldar fuse and pimp smack Slaanesh
what exactly is ynead?
Why didn't the Eldar ever fuse in the tens of millions of years that they ruled the universe? Why were the cavemen on bumfuck nowhere the ones to come up with this OP tech?
>These were the most powerful shaman who had been reincarnating individually for some time
Yeah I bet they were really powerful psykers compared to the Eldar.
I suspect only a partial success.
>Why didn't the Eldar ever fuse in the tens of millions of years that they ruled the universe? Why were the cavemen on bumfuck nowhere the ones to come up with this OP tech?
Too busy with orgies, I suppose.
>Yeah I bet they were really powerful psykers compared to the Eldar.
I suppose it's that most humans have little potential as psykers, but those that do are often really formidable. The Eldar have a higher baseline of ability, but are less likely to turn out the psychic supermen.
>Why didn't the Eldar ever fuse in the tens of millions of years that they ruled the universe?
They were too busy with orgying themselves into extinction. Maybe techniques to enable eternal life aren't as important when you live forever anyway? Who knows.
>Too busy with orgies
>They were too busy with orgying
Yes because every single Eldar in the 10,000,000s of years of the Eldar Empire was a mindless hedonist.
Hmm.. Let's see:
In the lewd brightness before Slaanesh, there are only orgies!
Yep, it checks out.
isnt Emperor just some psyker perpetual who got gene boosted during DAoT and further boosted in Moloch?
All the early shamans back in Ancient times had spent generations guiding their own reincarnation, until they realized that someof them weren't reincarnating and decided to band together and meld their souls into one. The resultant being is the Emperor, born in what is now modern day Turkey. He then spent years of his seemingly immortal life wandering the Earth and becoming great figure heads in history, and then fought a dragon and left it on Mars.
He may have boosted his powers at some point, but he was already a psyker nearly on par with the Gods of the Warp.
>He may have boosted his powers at some point, but he was already a psyker nearly on par with the Gods of the Warp.
This is retarded. A handful of psykers isn't on par with the Chaos Gods. Also 30k Emperor almost got his stupid ass killed by a Primarch and had to be saved from a Warboss. The Chaos Gods would curbstomp such opponents.
40k Emperor is worshiped by quadrillions of humans and has been fed millions of psykers, the idea that he isn't vastly more powerful than 30k Emperor is stupid.
Because Emps is actually Vandal Savage
>A handful of psykers isn't on par with the Chaos Gods
This was back when being a Psyker afforded you more power. Also I think it was more than just a handful.
>This was back when being a Psyker afforded you more power
So if you transported a psyker from 10,000BC to 40k they'd be just as powerful as they were back then despite the fact the warp is vastly different? Also if making a psyker fusion is so easy why did the Eldar never do it? Eldar live for many thousands of years, if being alive when the Warp is calm makes a psyker super power and able to defeat the Chaos Gods then why didn't the Eldar deal with the Chaos Gods before Slaanesh was born and the Warp got super fucked? Why didn't they notice that something was going on with the Warp when a bunch stone age humans did?
Congratulations, you've uncovered the BIG secret. Warhammer 40k doesn't make sense. Does that make you happy? If so, feel free to shout it from the rooftops, buddy.
40k metaphysics is generally ok. It's the idea that the Emperor is some kind of shaman fusion who is equal to the Chaos Gods that is super retarded and goes against everything else.
Maybe it's more accurate to say nearly as powerful as one of the Chaos Gods.
Also we established that the Eldar were too busy figuring out new ways to fuck each other.
Also if some humies were able to make an emps why didn't the dozens of other stone age alien races not do the exact same thing?
Better question, who the fuck is the laughing god? Where did it come from? How powerful is it?
The thing about the chaos gods is that they aren't in their own realm, where they would be arguably invincible, and emps is in his realm, where he is arguably invincible. Home field advantage basically
In my head canon the "shamans" were the last remnants of the annunaki
IIRC that there were fuckall human psykers for 10k years afterwards, my headcanon is that the ritual absorbed the psychic potential of 10k years of humanity.
The reason Orks don't fuse like that is because they enjoy the constant conflict and anarchy that the wars in 40k provide. Why spoil a good thing when they could keep fighting and enjoying life as is?
Eldar likely don't because of Slaanesh, actually. I mean, while the other eldar gods might be such fusions, who says Slaanesh was not born of such as well, but perverted and malign? Or even that the process doesn't take ages to properly gather all the power necessary? Could be that they are afraid they might make a monster worse than Slaanesh.
The Ethereals are simple enough. They likely don't have any idea that is even an option, and given how the caste system is their idea, they may find such a union of their minds a repugnant idea that would potentially weaken their hold on the Tau, or if they weren't in the unison make something above their rule.
It's more accurate to say Emperor-wank and Space Marine-wank have made 40k shit.
That's a given though.
Supposedly a new god who'll calm the warp forever and murder the fuck out of Slaanesh.
But GW being GW, Ynnead was shattered like Khaine or something when it was being created, and now it's a weakling.
They did
It’s called the Doom of Malan’tai
