Back in the day, the Primal Focus quest was a good way to get decent weapons for your alts, and it gave us something extra to do every week.... but those rewards have been irrelevant for quite some time now.
I think we need to see a new Primal Focus quest, involving Levi, Mog, Ramuh and Shiva EX... and of course, some new tokens to exchange for higher level loot!
How about adding a second Primal Focus Quest?

Mhhh.... Maybe take the tokens away completely and put them up for exchange for Sol/Poe/Ancient dungeon drops? Primal fights are already overdone/boring :/ They've been farmed down to a nub....

Well I'm not sure what the quest would reward, Shiva EX already gives a 100% guaranteed i110 weapon, which is more or less equivalent to the i90 weapon back then.
-
11-19-2014, 09:51 PMAxelDHHmm, maybe ilvl 115 would be too good.... I suppose if it took 2 - 3 weeks worth of tokens to purchase a 115 weapon, perhaps that would be balanced?Quote:

how about Primal armor's :o
Id love a set of ice armor or flame armor :D (Shiva/Ifrit) -
11-20-2014, 01:49 AMUltimatecaliburNot really. The Primal Focus Quest when introduced in 2.1 gave the equivalent of a Zenith Relics or a pre-buff Allagan weapon, the two endgame weapons. The equivalent reward right now would be getting an i120/i130 weapon and that in many ways is already covered by the Augmented Ironworks weapons.Quote:

Obtain the existing weapon from Primal Focus.
Obtain Key Items from Leviathan/Ramuh/Shiva Extreme.
Trade to Drake for an i115 version of the weapon with added glow effect. -
11-20-2014, 02:35 AMGarlyleI like this idea. A lot. It simultaneously adds value to the Primal Focus to begin with (which has been more or less lost except for vanity's sake or alt class gearing by now)Quote:

The thing is when the Primal Focus quest was introduced all the first 3 ex primals were released at the same time. Doing it right now doesnt pose as a challenge since we're overgeared now for the new primals(excluding shiva). What they should have probably done if they wanted is just stick to the 4man story mode primals, current ex shiva, ramuh and levi would be hard mode and then release a harder ex version of them on a later patch(maybe 2.5) together with the new primal focus quest.

The thing is that the EX primals during the BCoB were actually on-par with Coil rather significantly easier like they are now. Like people said it wouldn't make sense for them to drop anything other than i110 weapons.
-
11-20-2014, 08:36 AMkyuvenNah, what they should do is add Savage(?) versions of each of the primals and give a high level rewards for beating them all.Quote:

...i'm gonna stop before i give SE more horrible ideas. -

Sounds like a good idea but they can keep it as it is but let u collect drops of something to upgrade your existing primal weapon to level 120 or 115

I hated primal focus. It sat in my quest log for the longest of times mocking me because it took me forever to find a group that could clear Garuda, Ifrit and Titan EX. Once I got my 3 clears I swore to never do it again.
That said, I'm not opposed to primal-themed armor/glamour pieces. Something like Breastplate of the Vortex from Garuda, Inferno Gauntlets from Ifrit and so on.
