STORMBLOOD Primals

[AlexanderThorolund]

Exodus and Zeromus from 12

I want to believe you, but the world has all sort of crazies. Besides Greg didn't worship Enkidu as a god. He was his friend. Yet he still summoned him in primal form just by wishing he was there. And Phoenix simply came from the wish to save Eorzea from destruction. Nobody prayed for Phoenix actually.

Month old post buuut, you don't have to believe in something as a god like look at good king moogle mog, he was a myth but wasn't perceived as a god but he was summoned anyway. Belief+ energy= crazy crazy stuff

I can say eden can work as new raid its big spaceship and also something from outside the planet

Shinryu when?

Doomtrain's been teased for a while. Could see it being one of the new raids, though not sure whether it would be the 8-Man or the 24-Man.

Rhalgr seems a distinct possibility too. With how the resistance tried to summon him once before already, I could see someone making the leap and going full Thordan/Shiva with it in Stormblood. Probably Griffon. Who is totally not Ilberd.

Other than that, I think that it would be pretty cool to see Hades.

We pretty much exhausted the most popular summons so far, so it's a tough decision what the Raid Tier will be.

I can see Eden for some FFVIII love and it's big enough to host a complete setting like Alexander and Bahamut's Coil was. It's also a way to get closer to the Space/Moon setting with possible references to Adel and Ultimecia as plot (mentioning Ultimecia, her castle as Raid could also work tbh, with her and Griever as final bosses and maybe Matoya as plot char).


Although my money's on the Omega Ruins which ultimately lead to preventing a calamity that could be caused by Omega although it would have a similar feel to Coil unless the structure completely changes after the initial allagan bits.

Also, since the magical raid number seems to be around 12-13, making something like The Great Crystal of Giruvegan a good canidate, tho implement the 12 Summons of Ivalice with a more Ascian driven plotline, akin to the SMN sidequest. Although this would make it a major main plot raid which they tend to split up at the moment (while Bahamut was similar, it's still possible to avoid coil).

Mentioning 12... The Main story could start chaining into various people starting to summon the twelve one at a time...

As for the 24-Man raids, lots of options from Pandemonium FF2 to Tower of Babil FF4

Shinryu when?

Probably very late if ever. Shinryu is an insanely powerful dragon that makes Bahamut look like a moogle and lives in the Rift.

One fart and *poof* nothing left ?

Real questions is when are "Summoners" going to get more egis? It's been long enough and at this point I'm thinking they will never be added.

[Morningstar1337]

I think the Twelve are be off limits for one reason to another (Mainly due to the lack of a Halone Primal despite the "True Brothers of the Faith" being the type of people most likely to do it), At best there possibility would still be there but any attempts would be aborted.

Of course Ramuh and Shiva are very Similar to Rhalgr and Halone and its possible that the latter might had influenced the primal versions of the former.

The Espers are ambiguous with one of them being a Voidsent in the Void Arc (Cuchulain) but another having an Egi (Belias) so I think a 1:1 relationship and them being primals are mutually exclusive.

China's Four Symbols? That will depend on what will be the mount for getting all the Lanners.

As far as new primals go, any myth is fair game pretty much, Existing summons made primals? I'd say that Ixion might be involved, As a parallel to Ralgr and Ramuh. More High profile ones would include...I got nothing. predicting the next raid is gonna be tough when you already used the two most high profile summons for raids and gave the third a FATE and a trial. Though Shinryu as a normal monster turn primal would be a decent guess.
