Old bosses reborn...

While i love nods to previous villains ect. I would much prefer xiv to have its own entry(s) into the pantheon of most insufferable bad ass villains of the final fantasy franchise.

All summons, Ultros, Culex, and Yiazmat, all great choices, I would like to add Ruby Weapon to that for obvious reasons :O

If they could do this, and have the battle music be the originals... mmmm.

Or re-mix versions of the music : )

I would like to see a battle against all the 14 Imperial Legatus, similar to what we saw on the 100th battle of the Trial Mode on Final Fantasy XII International Zodiac Job System, where you fight the five Archadian Judge Magisters.

It would be awesome if we could get retro bosses and obtain retro weapons and gear from them. Perhaps vanity items. Some bosses I would like to see are:

Ultimate Weapon from VII
Shinryu from X
Tiamat from VI
King Behemoth FF VII Crisis Core
Tornberry from most FF games...though we need the badass Tornberry from FF XIII
Giant Cactuar from XIII
Gilgamesh

Ultima and Omega weapon would be sweet to have
also a 100 level cave with a boss called Jelly Jugernaught at the end that if you didn't beat in 3 turn...err minutes you got warped out.
I know its not a SE game but it was awesome.
Now there's a time sink!

I was thinking it would be funny if everyone server-wide had to kill him for this year's Heavensturm since it's the year of the dragon and Yiazmat is pretty well-known.

The Cloud of Darkness is more or less a force of nature than an actual person or villain, so its presence in another game wouldn't be too farfetched. It would be pretty awesome as the boss of the Crystal Tower since both have their roots in FF3.

If we're REALLY going to shoehorn older FF bosses into this game (Which I'd rather not, because it's a mockery to this game and seems more like a circlejerk of older FF titles), I'd like it to be done in a tasteful fashion similar to FFXII. All of the espers could be related to older FF bosses in one shape or form.

We should have all the weapon bosses from FFVII. Would be an epic challenge I think. Ultima and Omega been in many, I think it would be unique and a good thing to bring them all into FFXIV.
