    Summoners getting Carby now?!



    I sure hope it is! I love Carby and it's sad I can't use it when I want too!

    Looks like nice concept art and that's all to me. I don't get the carbuncle love either. The abilities are mostly the same but weaker.

    The Carbuncle Love derives from the fans of Final Fantasy XI, where in Carbuncle is the first and primary Avatar that you were able to keep out 100% of the time (with Garuda being the secondary and only able to be achieved at around level 99, where as Carby can be achieved at level 20).

    huh? you got carby in ffxi at lvl1 the rest at 30(and earlier if you have the quest done with another job), and odin and alex at 75, and carby was the bad guy there, the carby love comes from it's cuteness lol.

    Carby's mitts around 20. Also, you can get the rest at 20(minus Odin/Alexander/Diabolos/Fenrir), if you can do the solo version of the trials. :P

    The person you were referring to was speaking more specifically to the 0 perp cost that could be obtained with gear.

    I think the overall affection toward Carbuncle came from the fact that it was the most widely used (in terms of general utility) and thus was the unofficial mascot of FFXI smns.

    Because carby is the only summon that looks like it's traditional form and also has all the anesthetics of feeling like a pet.

    All the other summons seem like detached blobs of polygons with no real personality.

    Idk... Maybe it's me but my Garuda-egi's a bit of a bitch. I'm like "Enkindle!" & she's all like "*squawk*".

    Ha! You made me laugh.

    My Garuda is also uncooperative and downright stubborn.

    On topic: I would also like to be able to summon carbuncle. Actually, I think I'm must tired of Garuda and would like some variety.

    Titan and Ifrit get used in rare situations.
