Future Ultimate Fights?

Given that we've already gotten Bahamut and are getting Ultima, I was just curious as to what other stuff could work as an Ultimate fight. Is it exclusive to just major battles? If so, I can't imagine anything from ARR beyond Ultimate Cloud of Darkness and Ultimate Tribunus + Gaius.

If it could be anything that's popular, though, maybe Ultimate Edda could be a thing, even if I'd find that a little silly.

Was just curious as to what people thought were likely Ultimate fights that could occur.

I want to say Warring Triad (the Primals) and Kefka, but... idunno.

Warring Triad (Ultimate) please. I would love to fight Sephirot, Sophia, and Zurvan all at once!

Another possibility that could be interesting would be King Thordan (the primal) and Nidhogg. To give a HW main villain combination.

A third interesting one could be Living Liquid, Brute Justice, Cruise Chaser, and Alexander Prime. Call back to Alexander.

I did find it a shame that Thordan never got to confront Nidhogg in his KotR form. That could make an interesting conflict, though I'm curious how they'd handle you needing to fight both sides while they'd also want to fight each other.

I think Omega Ultimate. There's a high change to get FF7 and Sephiroth as the last wave of fights, since Omega searches for the mightest one, and Safer Sephiroth is stronger than Kefka and Ex-death. So, they surely would want to do a ultimate fight with Safer Sephiroth. Even to boost even more the FF7 Remake.

Ozma, naturally.

Baseform Kefka and Ex-death, maybe, but I wouldn't want to bet between Safer Sephiroth, God of Magic Kefka, and Neo Exdeath.

The Ultimate Steps of Faith. Its actually just the pre-nerfed version of the original.

Really though given that its probably ARR fights exclusive for now I could see Lahabrea and Nabrialas showing up for the 4.5 Ultimate fighting. The Unending Darkness.

I find it funny they teased it a little over a year ago.

They always leave out Leviathan, Shiva and Ramuh when they redo the ARR primal fights. I'd like to see them make a come back. Ramuh especially was pretty tricky in its day.

oh yeah this would make sense
they do sephiroth for last tier
then make omega the Ultimate fight makes sense

they could make ultimate out of anything they felt was worth the dev time

I suspect an alexander ultimate that involves fighting a ton of goblin war machines and the voltron parts and brute justice while a giant alexander is in the background shooting lasers across the arena would be in the works

warring triad would be pretty amazing but also that would be an ideal phase one of kefka ultimate imo

with as much time as nidhogg got as the main villain a steps of faith ultimate where you actually fight off a huge dragon onslaught ending with a duel against nidhogg makes sense

Sastasha (Ultimate)

The current two ultimates were both from 2.x, one was the 2.x raid, and the other the 2.x trials. It only makes sense to me for the final ultimate of this expansion to then be the 2.x 24-man, in an 8-man format. Next expansion we'd get the exact same thing but from 3.x. Alexander, Warring Triad, Shadows of Mhach.

I do like the idea of omega. If VII is the final phase then we would beat Sephiroth in O12 and then his final form making us the true champions of his triaL. Our prize would then be the ultimate fight against Omega. Also works as you'd need to be O12S to unlock Omega Ultimate. Would also be a very good narrative to close out Stormblood and Stormblood Raid too.

Whatever the wandering minstrel wants! It could even be Gilgamesh and Enkidu!

i still want an Ultimate Demon Wall :O

i think Odin deserves one
his trial is kinda obscure
they could just make 3 more phases for him

The ultimate fights aren't tied to any current stories, so it's very unlikely for that to happen

Besides, it'd be kind of a dick move to finish the Omega raid with Sephiroth, and then limit the main guy to less than 1% of the playerbase.

Personally, I think we'll see Ozma, with that fight design that they showed during one of the fan fests.

Possibly the tribunus of the XIVth Legion.

Aurum Vale Ultimate.

You know you want it.

Please there is normal mode, calm down. Because of those casuals complaining we have that normal mode, I dont even play savage atm, but still would want savage players do experience it themselves without getting spoilered in normal brainafk mode.

I would like to see Xande, the first emperor of Allag again (from syrcus tower) and Amon who tries to strengthen him further. Still favorite 24raid during that time.

They already tried that by having players die when they fall off. =p

But it was too op so they had to nerf it back to normal.

Read his post, he's talking about having Sephiroth as the last tier, and Omega as the ultimate fight.

I was somewhat disappointed the Warriors of Darkness were just a quest fight... Fighting them as a trial, Savage or Ultimate, might be interesting.

Wasn't that Ultros and Typhon?

yeah and they never changed that part - it is a bug that you die when you fall down. happened just yesterday in my trial roulette.

Odin deserves an extreme fight at least.... I'd expect a shinryu ultimate based on difficulty at launch...

That sounds promising.

Alexander (Ultimate)
Omega (Ultimate)
Thordan (Ultimate)
Nidhogg (Ultimate)

There is a lot of choice I personally think it will be Thordan (Ultimate) and Omega or Alexander (Ultimate).

Papalymo returns as anima primal

For what's worth I would like to see a thordan ultimate, just thordan and his knights but much more involved as a fight, like having the knights being a true part of the fights and such

If I recall correctly we're not getting another Ultimate in 4.X

That said, if there was to be another I'd like it to be Crystal Tower themed, then we'd have a raid ultimate, trial ultimate and 24man ultimate.
I also think Alex Ultimate and Warring Triad Ultimate would provide a nice symmetry between 5.X and HW, like how 4.X had an ARR theme.
