It's all muscles, not fat

It's all rock and crystals, not muscles.
But lol ironic how odin and KB is up there, when secretly half the playerbase knows how BS and laggy these guys are ^^
Also looks like a movie poster right? Lol

The reason why Garuda's placement seems a little ambiguous is because Coerthas' landscape has changed considerably since 1.0 (with the addition of snow and everything). Garuda's arena used to match Coerthas' landscape exactly -- lush green, with rocks scattered around. Garuda's arena looks nearly identical to how it did in 1.0. The entrance to her arena was also in a cave on one end of Coerthas in 1.0. You still touch her entrance gate in Coerthas in ARR, but it's all covered in snow.. very misleading for new players I suppose. Also, when you first encounter her in the 2.0 storyline, you take an airship to meet her. There is also a cutscene where you witness her attacking people in the Shroud, although I'm unsure if that's in 1.0, 2.0 or both. It's ambiguous for newer players, but rest assured -- she is in Coerthas, or at some unreachable point above it. The Ixali who worship her just happen to be stationed in both Coerthas and the Shroud.

As others have said, the Gigas are also in Coerthas, and presumably the beastmen who will summon Shiva, so it's possible we'll have two primals in one location... maybe they'll open another section of Coerthas. One can hope. As far as the art... I don't think it really tells us much besides hyping up the game. Many players have assumed correctly that Shiva will be added eventually, although Ramuh will clearly be getting the spotlight in 2.3. I'm assuming Shiva will be added in 2.4 (completely a guess based on past patterns), and this artwork is just meant to get people interested in the game. SE has announced that a special version of Leviathan will be available for play at E3, and winners will receive a special "I beat Leviathan" T-shirt. So, they're still going by 2.2 content for E3... with possibly videos/interviews revealing stuff that is 'to come'.

There are still most likely at least 3 more zones to Coerthas that we haven't seen yet like north, south, East and so on same with Mor Dhona so maybe a new beastmen race will be added in these zones.

[ShinkuTachi]

There is some new mysterious door in Mor Dhona, perhaps it will lead to a new area of Coerthas and a possible new Aetheryte. I also agree about the Gigas being the ones to call her.

Crystal Tower bosses are already anounced in this poster:



I think the final boss in CT is Cloud of Darkness

I think so too, because so far we've re-enacted with our characters the exact same steps and bosses as we did in the original FF3. So chances are it is literally the same dungeon for the rest of the time as well.

Well there is a new beastman stronghold in fallground floats.
It's blocked off as the gates are closed atm. So i'm assuming that might eventually be tied to something.

I have seen it and since it has the Ixaly's symbol I guess it will be the site where the Ixali's beast tribes quests are given.

I might have missed something, but why can't Shiva be the 1st primal to be added with an expansion? If I'm not mistaken, they said they would add an expansion pack every year and we are close to FFXIV ARR first birthday, plus Yugiri said that also in Doma they have primals, even though they are called by another name!

However, I like her original artwork but I really don't like the render (or at least what has been shown so far ...)
