Is this Castrum Oriens?

(and even then people also want a Regula von Kefka trial as well)

I cannot imagine a world in which this would be an all that good fight. We've fought the guy twice already. Once as a MINIBOSS and then once SOLO.
And he wasn't very hard either time.

He's an intriguing character - that he has survived fighting against the Warrior of Light on three occasions is a testament to his ability. Don't let the convenient plot device that is the Warrior of Light's power and plot armour detract from the capabilities of those that oppose him.

Regula getting the Kefka treatment would be a waste though. It's far better for him to be this game's Gabranth or Larsa - especially with the FFXII references coming up in 4.0.

Oh I agree completely. It's just that none of our interactions with him has set him up to be all that intimidating.

Sure he survived due to running away but I can't really be affraid of a guy that I have beaten 3 times already. He is like a rival in pokemon. Always making excuses how he is stronger despite getting beaten all the time. He is just a wannabe legatus far behind Gaius and Eula. Especially Eula. I'm glad he gets replaced by a new guy in 4.0

"SAVAGES!" "CAN YOU WITHSTAND THIS?!?!?!" cant take the guy seriously anymore after getting my anima finished

The Lore book gives more background about him as well. I'm kind of torn about it though. Part of me wants us to drive Regula back to the Emperor and that forces the Emperor to have him executed to show that he's not held back by personal relationships regardless of their nature. Of course Regula would probably accept that as the price of his failure.

Then again, actually killing Regula would also be fun. He's managed to escape me a few times, I've been really wanting to rectify that situation. But considering how the VIth Legion has appeared in the Warring Triad storyline so far, my theory is either that he'll get tempered by Zurvan or we'll deal with him in a solo instance.

But now I'm trying to remember something. What was the order of release for seph -> regula instance -> goddess? 3.2 -> 3.3 -> 3.4? Either way, I'm convinced we'll deal with Regula one way or the other by the end of the Warring Triad story.

With the way that the legions work, this won't happen, but you are onto something. Nael was the VIIth Legion (meteor), Regula is the VIth legion (warring triad), Gaius is the XIVth legion (2.0 MSQ). And then we have the new guy Zenos yae Galvus of the XIIth legion, if anyone is the Gabranth or Larsa of this game, it will be him (it was hinted that he would be a more complex character than the others).

Regulas entire thing is the warring triad plot, I don't see him making it into 4.0, so having him not become Kefka-esque would be a waste IMO.

Well, the problem with this is that we've already put down two of the Warring Triad, so there's not much opportunity for Regulas to get Phenominal Cosmic Power. Not to mention the fact that Regulas's personality is about as far from Kefka's as you can possibly get. I just don't see him trying to build a monument to non-existence anytime soon! He needs to be walloped with the crazy bat a few more times before that's in the cards.

Three times, actually! We fought him in the MSQ (solo), in ARF (party), and again in Warring Triad (solo).
