    A Small gripe

    Me and my FC members were having a conversation about the Egi's ( the summons ) We hate them . OMG do we hate them . We were talking about when we get Shiva or Ramuh whats it going to look like . I can see it now Ramuh a lightning crystal with a beard i mean WTF really . We could not understand the design choice for this . FFXI Summons looked epic compared to what we have here and that's using outdated PS2 yes PS2 hardware . We were like why didn't they ( SE ) just copy the XI summons make them smaller and give them some polish ? Anyone have this conversation ?

    oh I agree with you on this, I hate the look of the Egi's, they dont even look half as nice as the summonables in FFXI do which I find sad because the Primals you fight look awesome. but alas they said this was intentional because of some lore they didnt fully explain.

    Lengthy thread on the subject here. I think one of the last posts in that thread references another similar thread on the topic of smn.

    That is what im suggesting . The same model but much smaller would have been 1000 times better then the current Egi design

    Spose they should have a quest for summoners to do what the Ultima Weapon did and just eat the Primals whole in order to summon them fully.

    I did a quick sketch of what I think Ramuh will look like.



    P.S I'm not so good at drawing beards.

    P.S P.S Also, I'm pretty sure I spelled Ramuh wrong in the picture.
