Let us fight the Raven in The Binding Coil of Bahamut! [minor spoilers]

[Noroi_Kisaragi]

So as you know, Nael van Darnus channeled the power of Bahamut before you took him down in 1.0. As their powers became linked at that point, it would be a good nod to 1.0's lore to have Nael appear at some point in the Coil as an encounter. Perhaps he could be the fight right before fighting Bahamut itself!

I mean, certain other "dead" characters have been appearing in the coil so it wouldn't exactly be a retcon or anything.

Plus, I just miss that fight and believe when adapted to 2.0 it could be just as challenging as it was in 1.0.

It doesn't have to be a main storyline fight (if people doing the main story won't be forced to enter the coil), but again, this was my favorite boss from 1.0 and i'd like to be able to challenge an updated version of it.

Any thoughts, comments? Anyone else agree?

um, what other "dead" characters have shown up in coil?

Pay close attention to the cutscenes, you might have missed something important.

um, what other "dead" (as you said) characters have shown up in coil? I'd really like to know, as i've played all 5 turns and didn't recognize anybody thought to be dead.

The Raven is not coming back. It was made specifically for the 7UE story and won't be repeated. I merely state it as truth, with no other meaning.

(Louisioux appears in turn 1 when you see Bahamut's Wing for the first time, Alisaie turns because she notices something but he's gone before anyone actually sees him.)

He also reappears after Turn 5 along with Nael van Darnus (aka, the Raven).

Yep, and

VERY MAJOR SPOILER (I mean it)

the best part is that Nael and Louisioux look to have the same goal now after learning some kind of truth and are not foes anymore. Nael looks even more "the good guy" than Louisioux now and I'm eager to see him actually redeeming himself and saving the world this time.

Legacy only fight, so, no thank you.

I have no idea how the heck I missed this, despite seeing the cutscene.

So the Raven is in ARR, but as the good guy? Damn. Guess no fight then.

I enjoyed the fight in 1.0 and would enjoy it again
