It creeps slowly to kill you...

people!

And it goes with out saying that they poped up in just about every FF title to date minus the newer ones..

I think it's more a matter of "when" than "if".

We don't even have XV and you talkin about addin' them berries for XVI =O

...though I'd love to see tonberries in XIV. I'm sure we'll see them appear soon enough =D

I definitely do miss them tonberries. They were one of my favourite things to kill in XI, using my SMN pets as sacrifices to their Grudge attacks -evil laugh-. I don't quite remember exactly, but I'm fairly sure Tonberries weren't introduced until after the first expansion in XI? I could be wrong, but if not they'll probably do the same thing. There's still a lot of Hydaelyn to discover; Eorzea's pretty small in the grand scheme of the entire world in XIV.

They were introduced with Rise of the Zilart...infact I don't think they were used much after that :/ Which is a shame cause it was funny watching them gut you for 5k damage based on your built up rancor

Bah, making me miss camping out in Temple of Uggalepih for that Thief's Knife NM before they made it a force spawn with a rare/ex drop. xD

Or trying to do Zilart Missions and running through Den of Rancor only to hear "hee hee hee" *STAB* then bam whole room aggroes XD

I miss the Rise fight with the tonberries in it...had a pld that help with that fight that had a shit ton of rancor and he was killed in one shot for like 5k Hp O.o and he laughed about it...me and a galka was the only ones to make it out alive and i only live cause i was a 80 mnk at the time >.>

They were used in CoP areas like Pso`Xja and Carptener's Landing (the infamous crypotonberry battles lol( (Cryptonberries basically tonberries but more sinister looking) and Abysse, which has an NM that uses Sneak Attack on the one with most hate in the battle and damage can basically oneshot.

If they do enter XIV hopefully they're just normal enemies, be kinda hard to top a corrupted ancient race storyline lol.

All I have to say is, "Carbuncle Mitts".









;-;

Could be a fun miniboss, need a particular room and mechanic to support the classic tonberry though. Just walking around normal tonberry is a boring berry to me.

Not saying there cant be normal tonberries but it just doesnt feel as iconic as them slowly walking towards you with their lantern out... A miniboss could use something like that.

oh yeh I remember that pain... and then when I was doing summoner AF gloves... my coffer was right where king tonberry was... NOW THAT WAS FUN TO GET TO... I sent in a sacrificial taru... he was a good kid naive though... I GOT MY GLOVES THOUGH o_____o what a night that was... -sigh- in memory of you midgetofdoom!~ least i think that was the one o.O

How come Ginrya Geki isn't humping this thread yet? I'm all up for Tomberries. the more mobs they add the better

That's a kick ass art piece of Tonberry.

I sure hope they add Tonberry race into FFXIV ARR.

They give good memories of FFXI when I killed so much of them while camping for thief's knife back then.

Because this thread is just adding them. I want it as a mount, or a summonable partner!

I like some of the new designs for monsters in XIV, however I do think we need more of the classics like tonberries! <3

Loved the tonberries! Being a BST was great because I would never have to reset the hate. It was always fun to watch one of the campers aggro the whole room/hallway and try to run. Classic!

NO!!! No tonberries!!

My nightmares... they return... :(

I'll be very sad if they don't add tonberries at some point.

I never got far enough in FFXI to see a Tonberry. I did have to deal with them on Tactics Advance 1 and 2, and I HATE them on there.

Eh 5k is for hate resetters, I never reset my tonberry hate in XI not once, Everyones grudge would do 7-8k, and Everyones rancor would hit me for 17k+, I suffered many grudge oneshots and refused to wipe my hate, real men don't reset hate.

If when they add tonberrys I really hope they have a hate system for them, it was so much fun wondering where your hate was just to get oneshotted.

Release Tonberrys in a very Dark zone.

FF12 tower/basement was super dark. Would be nice to see them in there without the lamp on when there none argoo of course. Also none targeting till nearby. Make them jump scare players into a fight.

being one shoted by a tonberry whould let people in your party know what you've been doing in your free time, or it was that way in FFXI lol I got my hate up there by lvling on tonberries (lol it can be done!) and never reset hate..

You deserve a "like" for being one of a small race of none hate resetters, welcome my brother, to the cult of tonberry murderers, you can get your ceremonial chef's knife over there.

Same here, most fun was when I was fighting a NM with my ls and I pulled hate just when he used Everyone's Rancor, that was at least 17k damage we had a good laugh at that one.

can't we just jump over a tonberry to avoid throat stab o_o? they are kinda short... poor lalas couldn't clear it though :<

They....they were in more FFs than just XI..

I'd like to see Tonberries though. But we're getting a shitton of FF mobs as is. I don't mind them holding off Tonberries for one of the later expansions or something.

It be cool if Tonberry civilization gets introduce in future expansion as a 2nd main story tide into the expansion main plot.
Heck, it be even better if there will be an add-on based on Tonberry storyline.
