Is the "hero" party from the cinematic opening?

Would be weird considering she was melee originally.

I wouldn't consider it that strange. Just about everyone on here did a class change. The Rog was a Mar in this, the Hume was an archer before a war, and the taru was a thm before a whm. It wouldn't be surprising if her as a pld would change to something that's a bit more magic heavy, but I would assume a drg or mnk first.

I don't exactly get why people say the taru was a cnj. Her weapon is a thm staff, not a cnj.

EDIT for explanation on the gld.

Yeah there is no doubt shes the same miqo'te model in both trailers (idk why ppl keep using the pic with bard hat covering her face there's better options :P) obviously shes more mature in the end of an era trailer her expressions have lost the cheesyness. As others have said before we are only missing the female Elezen

I think the Hyur was only temporarily an Archer due to whatever intervention caused him to travel through time into that battle. But we can see him carrying a sword while traveling with the Elezen and Miq'ote. And the classes they switched to were all relatively similar to one another. The Lala stayed in the field of magic, the Hyur was still melee as was the Rog. I just feel as if we see her again, she will be a melee class. But that's just my opinion

How are you guys so sure the female elf is not the blm?

b-b-b-b-but i wanted to see a DRG jumping on Bahamut and failing in the process due to how high bahamut was ;-;
or a MNK charging a Shoulder tackle at a lala imperial soldier (Very short) and sending him to dalamud. ;-;

Perhaps when they make a new trailer, she'll come back as a Musketeer?

The odds are more in the favor since there are more melee than mages, but I don't see a lala being a SMN to be honest. I'm not saying it'll be the female Elezen, but I would expect a different race. I expect them to add female Rog's and Male Mithras in the next trailer, which will probably change the roles of some of these heroes.

maybe the lala leveled blk mage on the side for burn parties lol

I'm gonna go with the idea that since the five shown in the EoE cinematic represented each race, a certain party member had to catch the /pcmd kick.

I also like to think choreographing the action in the video in time with the song forced them to limit exactly who was shown.

It's pretty clear imo that the BLM is the Elezen female.

Closest i could take from trailer, but i still cant tell if He or She.

Would be neat if we got content revolving around them, especially something to do with either the great labyrinth of bahamut or some garlean empire thing since they were there, they could be like hildebrand and adventure with us as we go o;!

Definitely male... I'd know that Elezen male stance anywhere; cuz my character is actually modelled directly after the Elezen male in the original 1.0 opening CGI.

I too was seriously wondering where the Elezen female was... I actually love this party and the lore regarding them won't be the same without her (if I remember, weren't both she and our Warrior hero the "face" for FFXIV when it first launched?)

Reckon she decided that our excellent little Lalafell WHM was very adequate enough on heals, (she too could heal in the original trailer)... so she heads out to become one of the following options:

- Hikes to the wilderness of destroyed Ala Migho to train in becoming a Monk
- Travels to Limsa and becomes a dual welding Musketeer
- Wanders off to Sharlayan to become a Samurai or Ninja (she was VERY agile in the trailer)
- Hot foots it to Ishgard to train with the knights to become Dragoon

I like the last option best...kinda fits very well with the DRG AF storyline plus it will best explain why she was not at the final battle. We can definitely assume that the Holy See charged her with commanding the knights in protecting Ishgard

If not that, then the third option... will be a great way to integrate Samurai job class into the party's lore. Love this thread btw... awesome read. Be well.

*(My apologies for the double post)*

Ah, i love forensics:

The nose on the male is longer, and the cupid's bow shape of the top lip is dramatically more pronounced on the female.

Based on the Black Mage facial features, odds are strongly favoring it being the female.

So easy!


BLM is female elezen... and male elezen is





Louisoix!!!!!!!!


Joke :p the important is my beatuiful miqote is on end of an era trailer eheh :p

That BLM Elezen has blue eyes meaning the male /thread where is your god now? lol
That seems too flat chested to be the female ....so i'll stick with it been the male.
But bottom line they are the same guys the Hyur dude has the same scars on his face as original intro :)

Even after looking at more BLM af pics on all all female races seem to be flat in the af.

whichever one is missing probably went back to ffxi

it would actually be pretty cool to get a dev response over which one is in the black mage, and what happened to the other

a side mission/quest would be really fun to that.

Looking at it myself, the BLM's facial features look too masculine for it to be the female, imo.

yoshi will probably throw us a curveball and tell us something like the two elezen from the opening cinematic got married and retired, and this is an entirely new addition to the adventuring company

Hey gang,

You guys will definitely want to check out the enormous post from Fern on the Localization team about this very topic!
Just... prepare to have your minds blown!

They were all over the place with garleans and even the black wolf lol.

The BLM in the ending CS is actually a female. Just read something about it on FFXIVCore.

Ok, so I know its been confirmed an all but it just really bugs me to believe this is the Female elezen from the opening...

I'm not trying to question the answer we got, if they say its her then ok, all I have to say is
that's a very manly looking Elezen Female... lol
