Bring back carbuncle

This thread hasn't been seen in awhile.

Please bring back Carbuncle.

I wish he could be my healing partner instead of my sassy faeries.

While I can't say for sure, I think this idea was definitively put down. While carbys are cute, they just don't have the know-how to grasp finer Nymian strategies. Heck, even I have to refer to my book every 1.93 seconds or so.

Suddenly I pictured flying carbuncles healing people.

Just make Carby the new scholar/summoner mount.

You can do what I do and go ACN is easy content like CT,ST,WoD. People didn't seem to mind and many were kinda happy with seeing carbuncle in combat again.

I since carby is on the ground it's harder to spot it with some much going on

someone already discuss it on other section

If I remember correctly a dev said that this idea had been definitively shot down. Personally, I would really love to see Carbuncle be brought back...seems kinda silly to not use it. Especially since it seems like there won't be any new classes or use for current ones.

They just need to add diamond carbuncle as a future summoner pet, with different stances for DPS or Tank. Or if they ever allow companions other then chocobos, then SMN could have exclusive carby companion

Please make [Ruby] Carbuncle the next pet for summoner.

and Sapphire, and Iolite

Oh, no even better, make carby into swarm pets. Initial cast summons emerald, burn one aetherflow to add topaz, 2nd for Ruby, 3rd for diamond or other color... And assuming they add another level it could end in a super attack with a classic FF cutscenes that just pauses the battle to watch 10 minutes of summoning animation awesome sauce!!!!

i think this was said by 2.3 that come the expantion (or just after) summoners would gain the ability to choose what pet they would summon.

I hope it's topaz, emerald is just a derpbuckle

Golden or silver carbuncle, pleaaaaaaseee!...

Silver supplies Eos, golden supplies Selene

They should just add an Onion Knight/Freelancer Job which works off the Classes, making Arcanist (and the rest of the Classes) actually viable, thus giving people the option to use Carbuncle instead of Egis.

Smn itself needs to be shot down to be more Summoner-esk by making the pets wreck stuff like a drg or a blm. While the smn him/herself stands around pushing pet buttons cackling like a maniac.

Ppl hated the size of the Egis with they were released, they were expecting something like FF10

The reasoning Yoshi-P gave is that a bigass monster would be a pain in closed environments like dungeons. Imagine if you are taking something 2/3 the size of the Ifrit you fight against in Toto-Rak or Dzemael? lolz

I'd be happy if they made a Carbuncle minion instead.

The good thing about the Golden Saucer is its fanservice prizes that will be easy to add. Many of the items available like npc clothes, nails, etc were all popular fan requests.

Woohoo I'm famous. :p

Personally I have given up. I just rerolled and stop my Job quests just short of getting Garuda-Egi. Occasionally I get "questioned" as to where is Garuda-Egi ... I have yet to formulate a good comeback.

Getting SE to change anything is like trying to get blood from stone. I have decided to just accept my fate. Sho ga nai.

People I group with? Well, guess you got to suck it up with my pet having -10 potency and no Enkindle - the worse Lv50 ability IMHO; long CD = very niche use.

...well I just passed by on your thread with so many pro and cons but yeah, when I see this thread I remember your thread lol

Carbuncle is the only one that actually looks like a proper summon to me. The others are just play dough.

.............You.... you're awesome... I'd seriously reroll my character too... but, would have lose too many things... Basically the desynth 100s and crafting-gathering stuff + relics is what I fear to lose... Damn, I would have loved now an option to 'remove' your advance in job quests so you can repeat them again, learn them again, and... STOP BEFORE GARUDA!



... If in the expansion there goes a new server, like Zodiark, Jenova and that. Perhaps I'll start from scratch again, uhm

Carby does actually look like the real thing. A little smaller than usually but who cares. Carby is adorable.
