Lord of the Whorl - Primal Battle Preview (02/28/2014)

[cotti]

While making a thread just copypasting the news is bad, I must comment I won't be able to not call him the Lord of the Warhol.

I want that axe... I just hope I'll have access to levi ex without having to pass titan EX.. Just impossible for me atm

Dat Axe.

*gets booed*

[Mikara]

Lo and behold, cotti shit posting in yet another thread. Either way, looking forward to the new weapons / items from Leviathan. =D

[Rachoco]

Look here is the deal:
Hard modes drops weapon , i60 ifrit , i70 garuda , i80 titan, MAYBE it is more than likely that leviathan will be dropping i90 weapon
Extreme mode : it might drop level 90 accesorries or maybe it might actually be the one that drops the weapon.

Should i have written something into the news, which is not in the original post? Or may have made up some stuff? You know, not everyone is reading Lodestone News and not everyone is reading the Forums. So having it also on the Forums, for those not reading the News is bad how exactly? Noone is forcing you to read it, or forcing you to find it good.. but i don't see the point of your Comment at all beside being a bad troll-attempt. So go find yourself a Topic you like, spreading official Informations as much as possible is mine. kthxbye


Back to Topic:

I am pretty sure that Yoshi did mention that the iLvL of the Levi-Weapons will be actually higher then the other Ex-Primals.. somewhat between the lines. Trying to find the Post where he said that.

[Lithera]

Best practice is to link the Lodestone post and add your commentary.

[Dhex]

EX will probably cover the Neck accessory slot - HM will likely drop a il85/90 Weapon.

Leviathan will either be extremely fun and well tuned - or another Titan-esque mess.

[DragonSlayer45]

I don't want this to be a Primal in Demon Wall form (can't hit from behind) so hopefully they give me a reason to use my Monk for this fight at the next Live Letter.

[Almalexia]

Deluge the Lord of the Whorl and you will be rewarded handsomely for your efforts.

Not "re-whorl-ded handsomely?"

What happened to you, community team? You used to be cool.

I'm ok with the idea of Leviathan dropping ilvl90 weapons - IF they sneak in an upgrade for the Relic weapons this patch, since they're meant to scale. Push the Zenith to an ilvl100 level. Yes, this would put them above the Allagan weapons. However, no reason they couldn't add ilvl105 or so weapons in turn 9 to appease the desire to clear the harder content.

And before anyone thinks that maybe I'm just lazy and don't want to pursue Allagan weapons or such and want to stick to the Relic, a couple points on that.

One, relics were supposed to be the top tier from the beginning, they are meant to scale as well according to Yoshida.

But even so, I would like to see some content that requires special weapons that can only be earned by other content in order to complete it. Think of a special dungeon or type of boss that is completely resistant to damage from any "normal" weapon and can only be damaged by a certain type of weapon instead. There's a particular FF I'm thinking of that's similar to that thought but I can't think of the title at the moment.
