I demand a Primal Jesus boss

I think you got this wrong, read the description for Odin, looking for a worthy Challenge, meaning he isn't evil or bad he is just bored. In all of the FF series all the Summons/Primals/Avatars are always looking to "test" people to see if they are "worthy" to be given power, whats the best way to test someone? have them fight something is the way this game is going so of course they will have it like that.

It's just coincidental. "Shiva" is a corruption or whatever of "Shiver".

actually its not, concept of God Shiva has been around a lot longer then corruption of shiver, considering the Hinduism has been around for thousands of years.

you people and your funny posts

HAILODIN I wish you were on the Excalibur server so we could be Final Fantasy Friends.

Hail Odin!

who is forcing all of these unhappy people to play this game? is it a prison camp or something? how do i get sentenced there?

But, why would we want a make-believe religious figure that is no where as cool as a mythological religious figure? I mean, what's he going to do?

:: Invisible Jew Primal casts Turn the Other Cheek ::
:: Invisible Jew Primal casts Swords to Plowshares ::

And then he just drops dead and drops nothing because he has nothing of value? lol

On the outside chance you're not a troll, you should note that the game was made by Japanese, so your point would make much more sense if you requested a battle against a Primal Buddha (I'm simplifying here for the argument, as there are several more important Buddhist entities than Siddhartha to Japanese Buddhists). I'd be surprised if there were even any Christians on the dev team, given Christians make up no more than 1% of the Japanese population.

No, the FF version of Shiva is based on the Hindu god (who is actually both male and female, to whoever stated Shiva was a male). The reference is more noticeable in some of the older games, where the summon actually has the more traditional look associated with the deity.

The instance would start and you'd see a system message, like, "The Power of Christ Compels You." and then all the free slots in your inventory would be bread and fish. And you'd be like, man, thanks, Primal Jesus. Is that what you're asking for? I'm not sure it fits with the overall theme.

If you wanted to be true to Christian belief (not that any FF entity is true to its source material; i.e. Odin, Shiva, Ramuh, Ifrit, the list goes on...), the first Jesus would let you kill him while giving you a chance to repent of your wrongdoing, then after an indeterminate amount of time would tear open the heavens and obliterate the world with his second coming. It's way too big for the game to handle -- his ult would simply be a big 90K chained to an ongoing 10105, and thats no fun.

As far as drops, theres a plethora of relics from Catholic medievalism that would do nicely.

I hate my all-father.

I always thought he was kind of a jerk personally.
