[dev1002] FFXIV Beast Mode

I dont think that everyone should be able to do this. However I have always thought that perhaps it could become a class like summoner, and instead of summoning the creature next to you. You would summon the creature inside yourself. That way you dont have people left right and center turning into different things

(Sweet someone other than the same 3 people/lynch mob posted! Good to see someone has some ideas other than shooting it down without a single care.)

Ahh. Very good point. Yes maybe the system would work for a Class type. Therefore the jobs underneath that class could utilize the same mechanics.

(A bit off topic, but: I secretly hope that Classes have multi jobs underneath them. Like the FF Tactics system.)

I would like to first start by saying that even though this is my first post, I am a well seasoned Final Fantasy player. I have been playing FFXIV since the BETA, FFXI since the NA release, and virtually every FF game released in NA. Needless to say I am not a Nuub.
I tend to agree with the majority in that this feature would not be a good fit for FFXIV in its original envision. It sounds much like the system in FFXIII and I didn’t care for it in that game either. However, I do like some of the concepts. The idea that every “job”/”class” could have this ability does not fit well with SE’s role based parties. I do like the idea of transforming into the entity vs. controlling one, or casting a single ability. I think it would be an innovative way to portray the Summoner job. Even though the mention of a Summoner type job has been rather minute thus far, it is safe to say that SE will eventually implement something to that effect.
