When I first saw Shiva, the first thing I thought was...

[Gilraen]

I don't know, so long as she's not as wobbly as Siren I'm fine with how she looks. My question is what the battle will be like. So far the primals have been pretty much like they were in 1.0 with Leviathan getting genuinely new mechanics, being the new primal out of them all. I wonder what kind of mechanics Ramuh and Shiva will have.

Titan wasn't in 1.0 either, and when everyone first saw the arena collapsing around them.....yea.

Personally, I missed the Garuda storyline of 1.0, where she went and wiped out Quarrymill, and there was a cutscene for it. It definitely gave a sense of her being a dangerous being, when bodies started landing and you saw a few twisted ones...

Although, in a way, Garuda is still the most developed-primal of all the ones present in ARR. She actually has a voice, twisted up the Kobolds and Amaljaa to summon Titan and Ifrit in her territory, and clearly bloodthirsty. Titan just grunts, Ifrits roars and Leviathan....gurgles.

My first thought was "Yay, not a motorcycle!"

That Shiva was awesome.

Shiva looks bad ass, but the storyline will still be "someone spotted a woman who looks like the primal Shiva! She might freeze us all! Go kill her!" While standing around in Coerthas talking to a random NPC....

Coerthas is since 5 years in an ice age. I don't think Shiva might freeze them all, she already do it.

That may be the case, but I think it's more likely that the snow in coerthas is a result of the calamity, which has messed up a few weather patterns.

Titan is great because Titan has a theme song.

(so does Leviathan but Titan's is better (NO ONE ESCAPE))
