Which Primals do you want to see?

[Synapse]

Maybe each class/job can have a specific type of summon that it can use. Taking an example from FFXI jobs and avatars, DRK and Diabolos combo.

Btw, I don't actually want that. It was just an observation of limiting classes and jobs on the summons they can use. I much rather have just one class/job capable of summoning.

would be nice if other classes could make a temp 'pact' with guardians and use it in the fight, where they would come in, do an attack/heal/etc and disappear, make it a decent recast. Maybe find a use for our guardians we chose at the character creation screen.

I am with you on that. And SE better not make the summoner job fans angry by giving everyone a summon based on their "guardians".

Unless they are 2 seperate things. Like everyone can summon their guardian for a instant effect (heal, att boost, dex boost, etc.) But only the summoners would be able to summon primals in battle for an extented period. Something more polished along those lines could be acceptable.

They seemed to hint that the tweleve would interact through Archons(people possesed by diety)instead of summons. Custom abilities from the guardian you choose couldn't hurt though.

I always thought that the guardians were supposed to give an indefinite buff to your character depending on the guardian chosen. After playing since alpha of course I know that's not the case. I would definitely like to see the guardians have a good role in gameplay, such like you say Perrin. There aren't any 2-hour abilities like FFXI had, so why not make a guardian buff the 2-hour? Sounds like the perfect idea to me honestly.

I really hope that summoner is introduced, if it's not I will be very disappointed. But with that said, So far we are totally aware of Ifrit, Garuda, Titan, Bahamut, and Leviathon. But I really, really hope we get Carbuncle, I miss my little radioactive squirrel...

But I really wouldn't mind some of the summons from FFXII

Lol radioactive squirrel ... that brings back memories of good times

In FFXI there was a hidden summon most didn't know called Sublimen King.

It's some naked dude with subligar but this summon was the best, hard to obtain though... \

• He comes up and rubs his subligar on your arm and it paralyzed you, and you couldn't use any WS/Abilities
• He jumps up and rubs his subligar on your face and it was instant death... I don't think their was any way to avoid this other than wearing subligar yourself.
• He raises both arms and shouts Subligar Flash! and it blinds all party members for like 2 minutes if I remember.
• He rubs his butt (with subligar on of course) and it added silence status so you couldn't cast anything.
• He does range attack by taking off the subligar and throwing it like a boomerang, every player that got hit got stunned... was pain in the butt...
• Only way to defeat him was to wear subligar which lessened all the effects of his ability, the instant death change to 1HP so you still had chance to heal your health back and fight.

Once you obtained him and you summon him, while he's summoned out every mob (including NM/HNM) were all paralyzed at random for looking at his subligar. His 2 hour was of course the instant death move, although it was too strong as a summon devs had to make it so it only deals 10k damage.

i was mentioning guardians as just a small summon for the classes(like an ability), but still make a single class to summon the final fantasy summons.

I dont really know how the primals gonna be used for 'good'(by a summoner class), they are so evil looking, look at Ifrit, or Titan, unless ofcourse the summoner class is not a 'good religious' class and actually some sort of evil magic class. :P
