Have you played any Final Fantasy game before 10???? Every summon appears for literally 3 seconds, does a big boomy thing, then disappears. Which is exactly what's happening here. Besides, they said we'll be able to glamour the Egi's and their animations. It makes sense we won't be able to summon Baha and just channel his essence or somethingQuote:

I wonder when we're going to get Flareflare.
Seriously this crap is the "thrustier thrustiest" of casters.
THERE ARE COOL ABILITIES THAT AREN'T FLARE. Conversely, flare does not a cool ability make. Miasmaflare woo.
Where is ultima?
Quadcast? -

Since you know you're evoking Bahamut and almost every move has flare in the name of his unless you want to turn into a giant character model and sit on them which hell I'd like to seeQuote:

06-17-2015, 10:05 PMSpellbinderThis is the second time I've seen this kind of statement in this thread. The flame bait I dare to call the original post was bad enough. Can we not waltz down that avenue again?Quote:

Bahamut uses Teraflare in the opening cinematic (starts casting it just as the adventurers are thrown five years into the future) as well as in T13. From how the attack works, it seems to have massive Megaflare beams crashing down onto the field and then a massive explosion of instant death coming from Bahamut: https://youtu.be/OC3nEqr-ISY?t=8m24sQuote:

I know, it's something silly to be miffed about, but... Megaflare animation... -

It certainly looks to be more of a Mega, so I'm inclined to agree. Could of later down the road added Giga/Tera too, assuming they increase the LB level further, but I soppose that isn't the route there taking. Not that I'm complaining, having a LB that isn't a rock falling from the sky will be welcomed.

I for one like the route Summoner is going. We are now more of a summoner/blue mage like job that channels the powers of some of the famous summons out there instead being so reliant on the summons we bring out. Pet class/jobs always have in any mmo and issue of being to reliant on the pets they bring out. I for one like the change to be more about the summoner and less about the pet.

06-18-2015, 12:35 AMFreeLancer4I agree that the bahamut trance is a step in the right direction, being something more akin to summoning then Fester that is for sure, though I disagree on pet reliance, at least for XIV as we hardly interact as is. Here's hoping the adjustments warrant some actual use from ifrit's abilities.Quote:
