*SPOILER* So I think the new primal in 3.5 part 2 is...

[Belhi]

Well it will be interesting one way or the other. If it does turn out to be Shinryu then it throws most of what we know of how primals are summoned, formed and sustained under the bus. I am still betting on Rhalgr and I still don't think we will fight it. If the WoL could take down this primal we wouldn't have needed the whole seal thing in the first place. Infact if it turns out we can take it down I will be rather pissed we sacrificed an Ally for no good reason.

Oh we WILL fight whatever the primal is. Its not a question of it, but when. Now if that "when" is "3.56" then it'll probably be "Omega weakened it but its still about to rampage, yet even though we win the trial it goes cutscene mode meaning we didn't actually beat it, que our new antagonist Zenos coming in and actually capturing the damn thing." Would give us even more reason to actually go into Ala Mhigo, to prevent the Garleans from using the Primal for their own military conquests.
