Some interesting finds from the Ifrit Battle video

Has it already been mentioned that ff14's Ifrit looks like Diabolos and Battral had one trippy evening and, thus, Ifrit was born? >_>

you sure your fighting him AFTER that CS or is it that takes place after you kick his butt? SE isnt know for showning videos in chronological order :p

Hoping groups won't still be more orientated to "CON/ARC only!" when this comes out, but I have a sinking suspicion that still won't change =(. Just going by HP values, PGL and ARC are still pretty close and unless some of the melee gets significant damage increases (or if ifrit spams AoE every 2 seconds) ARC will still probably be the way to go. Fight still looks fun though! Just have to get hurry and get ARC up high enough so I can even try it if things turn out that way.

To the WoW posts:
It doesn't look any different from any other MMO except you can zoom so far out you can see the entire battlefield and all the crappy animations with it (making it "seem" more epic).

Looks like were in for a bunch of fun fights come .19. Meta game be damned, there's heads to be busted.

Honestly, honestly...While this news is great and wonderful, I just want them to release another "Absolute Virtue" NM that no one can kill and SE to give stupid hints on how to kill it, that way all these "its too easy" people won't have an argument anymore.

Good job SE, keep it up!

I saw that, as well. Turns out its a Cure III.

Looks like Ifrit's AoEs hit the Arc, too. Maybe they extended the AoE range as an attempt to balance melee with ranged? Although that can be tough on DoM. Sure looks like the Roeg Conj spent most of the video dead. :p

At one point, the Arc is running around in passive with her bow unequipped. I'm going to assume she ran out of arrows. ;)
