PLD - Ogre & Ahriman. Need to kite one of em around.
WAR - kill birds while kiting Gorge away since he has very devastating aoe hit, 1-hit kill most of time too.
BRD - killing Ixals in certain order before hitting the main guy.
DRG - kill drake while other tank kite drg away.
MNK - killing soldier in order before getting to final guy.
WHM - the weakest fight. Only need to kill elementals in order. Can even be done with 2-3 ppl.

While majority of fights follow similar pattern, it was quite challenging for some of 1st timers.

AF final bosses are still ingame. Only that they are now soloable or you have some NPCs helping you (but still need some strategy).
I think you don't mean the final bosses, but the lack of party quests.

duh... think i don't know that? Those are basic contents players need to finish before you can even starts relic quests. And unlock hard primals, then coils, then extreme primals, and the rest of end-game stuff. lol

And yes, I consider those as final bosses of AF chain quests, difference is that each version treats it differently.

I'm just hoping that they bring the movement back from 1.0, how you would turn and would actually have limbs. Now it feels too light.

Maybe... when SE finally close the doors for PS3 support and forcing players to abandon PS3. lol

If PS4 can't even handle the quality that 1.0 has, well then......... lol
