Ifrit Extreme....What's Different?

[Jocko]

I can't see this being realistically possible to win until 2.0 when the animation lock problems are dealt with. Bar the occasional fluke, of course.

This fight won't exist in 2.0

This fight won't exist in 2.0

The quest "A Relic Reborn" will be in version 2.0, therefor Ifrit (Extreme) will be in 2.0, at the very least. I doubt the actual quest line is going to change, including the Ifrit fight part of it.

The visual background will change. Other than that I think the cutscene as well, since you know what happen every time it is summoned/defeated storywise.

"This fight won't exist in 2.0"

An assumption with very little foundation. The suspicion that the instanced primal fights will be removed when roaming primal fights are introduced is contradicted by:
- Relic quest using it and this quest's persistance into 2.0
- The Linkshell chat in V2.0 screenshots saying to "meet at the Howling Eye."
- The sheer stupidity of removing easy access to confronting iconic primals in an FF-fan service game (roaming primals will be camped).

The fight will exisy just undet diff storyline and mechanic probably

* In order to gain access to the Bowl of Embers (Extreme), you must have accepted the quest “A Relic Reborn” and fulfilled certain conditions. Furthermore, only parties consisting of eight Disciples of War or Magic of level 50 or higher will be permitted to enter.

Ill go do it when i'm lvl 75....... lol

saw JP shout for Extreme Ifrit, didnt stated must need quest to join. Think only need one to enter the fight.

Or the very fact that Yoshi himself said they will exist in other means (open world/roaming) so we can already say that unless they treat Ifrit Extreme in the light of Abyssea Avatars of 'Tuning Fork of (Element)' style situations, it will be open/roaming as well.

Man, this video really made me realise the advantadge Japanese players have. Look at around 3:31. Notice how much time the player has to get away from the cracks. =/
