Musketeer in Through the Maelstrom Patch or Huge Tease?

The thing that caught my eye in that article was this

"In his never-ending quest for power and glory, Gilgamesh─self-styled warrior of legend and collector of fine weaponry─now roams the lands of Eorzea.
When a series of events leads to confrontation with this formidable foe, you must prove your mettle or see your blade lost to his ever-growing collection."

If we lost to Gilgamesh do you think he is gonna take our weapon? >_> or just whenever a party loses to him he gets their weapons as his 8?

If you re-enter the instance instead of getting the 'echo buff' you gain the 'excalipoor' buff. Meaning your weapon's ilvl will be reduced to negative 90 and makes wonky sound effects.

I HOPE.

Also, where is that Gilgamesh Battle taking place?

Ideally at Highbridge. "Battle at the Big Bridge" and all. This seemed to have been somewhat alluded to at the end of the 2.1 Hildibrand quest.

I mean, I've been waiting for when Minfilia stops standing around being pretty and does something, but all we get from her is the 'princess' treatment.

I've always seen Minfilia as more of a diplomat than a fighter. That dagger she has is more akin to a can of mace than an actual battle weapon.

That screenshot clearly isn't Highbridge though. Not really sure where that could possibly be, the only other notable bridge in Eorzea (other than the one leading to Ishgard) that I can think of is Griffin Crossing, not sure if the architecture matches or not though. I think I'll be pretty disappointed if Griffin Crossing is a Trial location and not... You know... The path leading to the other half of Coerthas... Guess there would still be that path north of Natalan though...

Why has no one mentioned the green chicken in this screenshot?

Beastmaster confirmed!

I hope it is on the Ishgard bridge. No other bridge is bigger.
