FINAL FANTASY XIV Patch 7.4 Trailer - Into the Mist

[SkankyRoe]

Ah, you missed that the surfers were the previewed one in the Live letter, and that was Heavyweight M2. I figured that the president would be hidden thus thought Elezen dude is M9, Elezen Lady is M11, given I think she's the current Heavyweight Champ after Eutrope.

Oh they confirmed it to be M10 not M9? I watched the preview of the fight but assumed it was the first fight of the tier since all the previous previews were of the first tier..

I feel like all the clues point to the Elezen dude being the President. The Arcadion's mascot makes sense for the President's feral soul, and in the artwork he's shown opposite the WoL rather than included in the group photo of all the fighters

The Arcadion's mascot makes sense for the President's feral soul, and in the artwork he's shown opposite the WoL rather than included in the group photo which makes me feel like he's intended to stand out from the others, especially since Hector and Eutrope are in it.

That's Fair. Given her speaking role in the trailer, that's what makes me think she's the champion over the dude. Either way, we have one fight missing and I feel Everything burns can only fit either the Elezen dude or the missing fight.

Also, dug up the intro cutscene from the LL just to make sure I wasn't talking out of my ass from something I watched at 1am, and yeah, 1:10:26 in the LL reveals it's M2. (I don't know how to paste images, lol.)

That's interesting that Yoshi P chose to show off the second fight rather than the first, has he ever done that before?

Honestly can't say. I don't often watch the LLs and I don't remember them during EW or the last two tiers. I want to say... probably not? I think it's just the most visually interesting arena with probably the most unique mechanics in the opening of the fight for normals, probably.

Can't wait for 7.4!

Wouldn't it make more sense for the elezen dude to be m11 the champion of the Heavyweight division considering he is at the top of the 7.4 artwork like it's the big title match.

As I mentioned, I think she's the champ due to her speaking role in the trailer, I also just don't pay too much attention to the art.

Edit: I also just hope she's the harder fight for my personal enjoyment.

It's worth noting the special site has been updated to say that "Everything Burns" is the M12 fight theme.

"The fierce battle serving as the finale of the raid series is amplified by the original track "Everything Burns," written by two-time Grammy Award-winning guitarist Tom Morello (Rage Against the Machine, Audioslave, Prophets of Rage)! The hard-hitting, powerful sounds featuring Caleb Shomo (Beartooth) on vocals can be enjoyed in "AAC Heavyweight M4" and "AAC Heavyweight M4 (Savage).""

The reply above this one confirms that 'Everything Burns' is for the finale fight.

Which makes sense - it's fair to speculate that M12 will be where, as per the trailer, the stakes are high enough that the Arcadion fighters we fought previously join us in the fight.




Little wonder they'd want to keep 'Everything Burns' for a fight like that!

7.4 looks really good ngl. Looking forward to it!
