New Ennemies !

Playing Dark Souls,I thought I'd like to defeat the Ruin Sentinels in FF14 ;)

Which new ennemy would you like to see in FFXIV ?

• The Hell House/Armstrong (FF7/9)

• Abadon (FF8) ( We need more undead ennemies :o )

• Joker (FF7)

I can see the hellhouse being some kind of goblin war machina

I know it really shouldn't, but the fact that there is a space before the exclamation point in this thread's title is bothering me.....

This game is missing a large chunk of undead (and probably for the reason of trying to release in china). That being said, if they get added, I would like to see their real mechanics like in 8, were you can heal to damage and use a rez to kill (with some percentage, like the death spell in 13).

While this would be cool, and extremely useful during fights with them, I really don't see it happening since they would have to rework the targeting system of healing spells when those are the enemies being targeted. As it is, targeting an enemy and casting a healing spell means you heal yourself, and can sometimes be easier to work with if you need a quick heal than just targeting yourself, (especially during solo play when you're already targeting the enemy). I could see it being implemented in a mid dungeon boss fight however, with some sort of NPC object that the healers can cast their spells on to "charge" it, at which point it activates as an AoE healing blast that damages the boss while healing the players....

You can also heal yourself by not selecting a target if that's really issue. There's probably just a line of code that says that if you don't have a legal target for the heal (i.e. a PC or NPC) it defaults to yourself. It wouldn't take much to change an enemy to a legal target when they are of this type (or all enemies for that matter, but heals won't affect them since it by default does no damage). There is already a modifier for healing (seen in skill such as mantra, convalescence, defiance, etc.) so the modifier can by 0 for normal enemies and -1 (or what ever number) for undead.

I'm not saying it would be difficult to change. I'm just saying that I don't see it as being likely because it would affect a basic function of how healing works, and people don't like change unless it's all good and no "bad". Actually, they'd probably still hate the change even then.....

Well in that case, without messing with mechanics too much, I would want an aerial fight like Ultima Weapon (FFVII) where you can ram it with the airship to engage and it flies around. In fact, I would like roaming mobs in general; the leashes get on my nerves.

Ornstein and Smough

like, literally Ornstein and Smough

It'll be like, "You were expecting someone else or perhaps someone that vaguely resembled Ornstein and Smough as a clever reference but NO! IT WAS WE! LITERALLY ORNSTEIN AND SMOUGH!"

On that note, also: Dio Brando

Also, Big Space Guy Wyzen.

Actually, I forgot I change my mind; I forgot about the XIII series. I want an admantoise, armadillon, and the behemoths that stand halfway through the fight:

Also this thing:

Kind of miss the the whole aspect of the undead coming out more at night that FFXI had. Always felt like everything became more serious in parties, to say nothing of the way group tactics would have to change to accommodate the more dangerous terrain. Imagine the change in the open world of FFXIV if the same were added, even to decent challenge, blood aggro, ect... just to name a few mechanics that could be introduced.

Exactly my thoughts ! ^^


Maybe we could have elemental lords if we could have dungeons for the The Twelve.

Something like Water Lord for Thaliak & Nymeia Temple, Wind Lord for LLymlaen & Oschon...

Or maybe the Four Fiends from FF4 ^^

I believe the Espers will eventually show up, as during the Summoner 50 Battle, you fight a giant black Ifrit-Egi that is the elder Primal egi Belias-Egi.

Typing rules in some countries require a space before and after any double punctuation ("!", ":", ";" or "?").

On subject, I'd really like to see FFxii's espers coming, but one theory I had about Belias is that he's just Ifrit known by an other name for an other civilization. Would be cool to have more info about that in the incoming SMN quests ^^

More ff12 enemies, like the Entites. Pretty nasty balls of pure energy that are hard to kill and spam high level spells.. But they only appear under certain weather conditions or fulfilling a specific objective on the map ala S rank hunts. Make them FATEs if you have to.

only if you can get ruin helm from ruin sentinel.

that is best helm.

This please ^^
Within the next Hildibrand story or in a FF IV themed raid (like CT)
And the battle music should have Lyric ^^: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C8vz186pjY0

Armstrong, yes please! I like Armstrong so much, it was the second boss in a dungeon I tried to design. It could definitely work as a Goblin forgekin!

I'd like to see Doomtrain in one of the new zones as a level 60 Odin style FATE, They can darken the atmosphere in the area and easily have some ghost tracks appear on land that lead to the edge of a cliff and have him "Fly" around and occasionally stop on land for people to attack, have him spew massive poison/heavy around whilst he flies so people have to land to heal if they are following him too closely. It could be randomised where he flys to (so people don't camp his next spot) in an area with multiple floating islands. Plus I think it would be hilarious to have hundreds of people chasing after him on flying mounts, don't let him heal quickly or go invulnerable when disengaged but give him some regen to force some kind of dps race on him.

The Ark from FFIX.

Thinking on it, I've decided what enemy I want added. "Shadows". They take the form of a player at random out of the party that attacks them, with full access to that player's skills and stats. They also fully take on the appearance of that player, but in a black/grey form without color. As for appearance, it could copy the player model in the same way that cutscenes do, (you can still see a player standing around when they're watching cutscenes, but they can see themselves doing stuff within said cutscene, so it's possible), and the only real issue would be to copy all the skill and stat combinations. If you face one solo, then you're having the classic "fighting yourself" moment that takes place in a few FF games, which is always fun, and if you're in a group, then it can prove a challenging fight to take on people with the same skills as your party members, (possibly use the PvP versions of the skills though if they're considered too difficult to fight)......

Since Alexander is tied to the Goblins, we might see more different kinds of Goblins. For instance, like the Bugbear or the Moblins:

I would like to see some Orcs, Yagudo and Quadavs reintroduced into FFXIV:

I always thought the Orcish Warmachines (FFXI) were quite funny. (^_^ )
