Could Necron be next tier boss? My thoughts and yours?

So, I am a die hard FF9 fan. And since next raid tier is upon us soon, I been thinking. Could Necron be a possible boss in next raid tier?

Heres why I think that
First of all, SE said that with introduction of omega, and the fights and arena are all created in this mist, this open up a lot of opportunity to bring in more bosses that wouldnt normally make sense in the FF14 story.

1) Neo Exdeath and Necron both share a simuilar skill name. "Grand Cross"
2) They both want to return everything to nothing.
3) battle music have similar musical motifs
4) similar color scheme ( a light blue-ish tint)


It would really make my day if this was the case. What do you guys think??

If anything, thats a reason for it NOT to be Necron.

What I think? To wait and see... Yeah, I'm fun at parties.

I'm not really much of a 'speculator' (not sure this is the correct word? :p). But imo there just isn't much info and stuff like this can be very unpredictable.
Happens in the anime community all the time, They completely miss the point and well .. let's just say I cringe every time by 99% of those 'youtubers'.

To get more on topic though I would actually love to see some FF XV stuff in a future expansion, that is now my most fav FF game since I played it last year (IV & VII have taken a backseat now), but not going to speculate, if it comes it's good, if it doesn't come ... well I'm sure there will be something else interesting.

Nah... the next raid will be Enuo, and the third series is about Omega himself, with Omega Mk-II for the savage mode.

Can't imagine why it would. Necron kinda came out of nowhere, and I don't think was very well received by fans of the game.

As a fan of IX myself, I really hate this statement. Kuja was trying to destroy the crystal to bring about nothingness, to return everything and all existence to zero. Clearly he failed at that, seeing as the story had a conclusion with the characters. However, his attack had enough of an effect to; arguably, bring all those in Memoria into the Zero realm. Necron was most likely a guardian/deity/god of that realm or in the very least one of the inhabitants who grew strong.

I will admit though, that due to the lack of information regarding anything like the Zero realm it seemingly comes out of no where, but at the same time it's not exactly too hard to explain either.

It had mixed reviews due to it being overshadowed by the PS2 release and; in my opinion, FFX's advertising also probably had some affect. But in recent years it's gotten more positive light.

It should be Ultimecia... rather I wish it’s Ultimecia. We will find out on the 15th hopefully.

Necron shouldn't have been in FFIX let alone XIV

Doubtful, this is only part one of the patch 4.2 LLs, we will get an overview of all content and some snippets of information. We will likely know the name of the raid and not much more

Even in part 2 they tend to keep information under wraps, and the final raid boss is rarely revealed until the world first gets to it when the patch is live.

Kuja was not the one that wanted to return everything to return to nothing-ness. He wanted everyone to die with him cuz he believed that he was the perfect being. Since he life span was short, he believe the world should not exist without him.after winning the fight, Kuja used Ultima. Necron (the god of death) appeared and said he was going to return all to nothing-ness, where there is no fear of death. And since death is a big theme of this game, it makes sense, considering Terra was slowly dying, vivi's short life span, ect. FF7's background story with life stream seems quite similar with 9. The lifa tree was taking in all the souls and creating that mist. And I always thought the dude you fight inside the lifa tree have some plot tied with Necron.

I don't remember Omega traveling to IX Realm? Did he? Been a while since I play IX I may buy for PS4 since it got released I think.
I know the Omega originally release in V so is well explain Exdeath since he did travel to V realm same for Chocobo Tales , he BEEN in the Chocobo tail Realm.
I remember Omega being in X, so we may fight

Thanks for the correction, it's been a while since I've completed a play through. But my point remains, that Necrons showing up isn't hard to explain.

Is that what's going on in the Deltascape? Omega is only pulling beings from worlds/realities/dimensions from which it's been?

Well the I know off the would be better explanation then him pulling bosses from his *sensor* XD
So I tray to examine and give myself a explantation or theory and everything he summon has been related to Realm he been at, but who know what Yoshi has plan.
oh he also been XIII (well XIII-2 but same world who care)

They should not limit themselves to the titles where Omega appeared, but instead, use it as a excuse to bring whatever fanservice they want. Which I'm more than happy to receive btw. I think the easier adaptations would be:

1) Final Fantasy IV: Elemental fiends, The Giant of Babel, Golbez, Zemus, Zeromus. Come on, we have plenty of bosses here.
2) Final Fantasy VI: Although it's gonna be hard to pull bosses from there, since the Warring Triad has already been defeated (the source of his godly power), it's certainly possible.
3) Final Fantasy VIII: Ultimecia's Castle. It's a raid itself! I was hoping for the last episode of the Mhach series to include it, but it would be nice to have it as an actual difficult raid.

I thought they said, er well...one of the npc said that Omega created them from text/books. cuz omega itself said that in the lore or story or something. I was hoping to see Necron at some point, being a ff9 fan, I wanna see more than just Ozma lol But always good to dream about it xP

It's still quite the stretch. Easy to explain, maybe, easy to accept, sure, why not. But from a game writing standpoint, it made zero sense. If there were some ancient texts in Daguerro that mentioned him, or some old legends in Bran Bal, something, anything to bridge that gap from "I have no idea what this is or why I'm fighting it."

It literally came out of nowhere, and the only way to justify it is some post hoc argument. Your explanation might make sense, but there's really not a whole lot in the game that explicitly supports it.

FFV is a fairy tale in FFXIV's world, hence why characters from FFV appeared as bosses in the Deltascape. So if it's a story/something in XIV in some shape or form, then it can be a series of boss fights in the next Version of Omega.
That said, Omega is capable of creating anything (with sentience) it pleases within its realm. So who knows what we're gonna get next (might even get Necron after all).

I'm still hoping for the Magus sisters.

Honestly I would welcome a Seymour fight for V9, since a couple of his fights were more mechanic heavy compared to other fights from that game. We really don't have much from FFX yet either.

That and because this.

I think he would pull 2 from one ff and 2 from another. And if he chooses 2 from ffX I hope its Anima and SIN

Exactly. Sure, you can explain it. But the game doesn't do that at all before it happens. You spend most of your time battling Kuja, and your big climactic battle with him is effectively where the game ends. The the game goes "oh lol, here's another boss we did no foreshadowing of whatsoever in the entire game!"

It doesn't have much impact as a result in comparison to the fight that comes right before it.

I liken the fight to Yu Yevon from FFX. Yu Yevon is promenant throughout FFX, and is a part of its mythos and history, but the fight comes out of nowhere and attempts to destroy the impact of the personal fight between father and son before it. Yu Yevon should have been a cutscene, Kuja should have had an extra phase and Necron should have been a cutscene

Honestly, Necron gave me the impression of being a last minute addition because they wanted a "super boss fight" at the end of the game. And that's it.

Hades was originally intended to be the final boss, the arena carries a similar motif to him, but was pushed toward Optional Boss status either because he didn't fit the narrative they were going for and/or thought what they came up with fit better.
