Ramuh was the primal of the Sylph, in mythology they are air spirits...

Ah, yes. The shape shifting rapist gets mad when someone sleeps with his sister-wife's likeness. Man do I dislike Zeus with a fiery passion.

I'm really glad I'm not the only one who was thinking along those lines lol

I believe last time he/she/it start to break down and puke, the contents are not only light aether, but also part of brain grey matter.

After the first round of Eden, I was wondering what we'd been smoking or ingesting to come up with Levi and Titan... and why we did even more for this round!

Ramuh kind of makes sense, since it's blending a lot of lightning elemental foes together. Garuda doesn't look too different. Ifrit looks kind of generic though

Isn't Ramuh a Hindu god and Ixion from Greek mythology. Not sure how it makes since to combine them.

I mean... FF has a history of taking interesting mythology characters and twisting them into their own image. To the point that they really don't represent their original culture in the slightest either. Garuda is Hindu as well but his FF incarnations are wildly different from how he's depicted in mythology. (Though to be fair Garuda's appearance differs depending on the culture portraying him and the tale.)

FF14's Garuda is also now sharing a Normal Raid floor with Ifrit who is Islamic in origin, so it's pretty clear the FF14 dev team doesn't have an issue mixing and mashing cultures together.

He looks like Diabolos with the wings removed.

I was kinda hoping he would be a giant muscular man inside an even larger muscular beard...

We will also get this Ramuh as the savage mount, so you can even ride on him.
