Brand New Primals

[TeganLaron]

I'd have liked them to have released another open world Primal in the style of Odin/Behemoth. I have to say I was quite surprised, and disappointed, that they have no plans to add anymore.

Alexander obviously needs to make an appearance. He'd make an excellent Primal for Ishgard; the enemy of Bahamut, Holy-elemental, and being very over-zealous are all traits he's been known to have, which match Ishgard perfectly. Alternatively (or maybe in addition), he could be an artificial Primal created by the Allag as a countermeasure to Bahamut. He might well have been named for their first king, Xande: Allag-Xande, transliterated as Alexander by Ishgard. He could show up in the main scenario or be connected to CT, or even the Coil.

As for open world Primals, there should be equivalents to Odin for Thanalan and La Noscea; I'm thinking Phoenix and Syldra, respectively. Fenrir could also show up somewhere.

Finally, considering the existing presence of Zodiark and Belias, I'm pretty sure that there's something in the works involving the Lucavi of Ivalice.

I agree with alex fitting Ishgard story, though I would imagine would require another expansion to add an elder primal, really hope alex does come into play eventually

Alternatively (or maybe in addition), he could be an artificial Primal created by the Allag as a countermeasure to Bahamut.

Although I agree Ishgard is most likely, when you put it like that it makes me think Alexander could be the next big superboss once Bahamut is defeated. The new Coil, or whatever the new name will be, could be centred around him/it.

I wouldn't be surprised if Alexander is construed similar to his appearance in FF XI - man-made colossus (Either Ishgard, Allag or a combination of the two) but serving as the vessel to the actual primal who otherwise has no form.

They've already shown the technology to capture primals exists through Ultima Weapon, Alexander would just be taking that a step further.

Fenrir and Typhoon will definitely come, though I don't know if it will be after Shiva. My guess is that we may see Zodiark and his summoning may be involved with the expansion coming in (supposedly) 2.6 or 2.7. SE said early 2015, but plans may have changed.

[Ghastly]

I think a fun way to make open world primals work is that they can be linkshell related (you get more people engaged and more boss mechanics to deal with).

For example
Uldah npc asks you to donate 1000 cactuar materials to create crystals to spawn the cactuar primal.

This is similar to a HUNT (new system they're adding) so they can just add open world (FC/Linkshell) primals to these hunts.

[Konata]

I would like to see more primals added to the game but what they could do is a large 8 man dungeon that has monster and sub bosses that leads up killing the final boss being the primal and not the what we have atm with just fighting him right off the bat also with open world primal be it fate or just randomly spawning as long as they dont spawn in dumb location like odin so every player be on PC,ps4 and ps3 can see him and not the cluster fuck of spell effect we have atm

Primal: Soggy Banana
Appearance: Very, very large; very, very soggy.
Special Moves:
Rot - Makes the banana soggier, grossing out 40% of all players within 18 zones of the soggy banana.
Squishy Goop - Makes a gross squishing sound when you touch it. And ew! Its all over your hands!
Kamehameha Beam - Does 75,000,000 damage to all players logged in on all servers.

Other Notes:
- Its hit points can only be calculated by a large super-computer owned jointly by the seven richest Kings of Europe, and can only be expressed in scientific notation that involves googolplexi.
- Goes great with honey nut Cheerios.
- The brown part is still good! Eat it! We're on a budget!

I absolutely adore the Primal fights, figuring out their lore, and I'm irrevocably and totally in love with all things Summoner. So with each new primal springs eternal a new hope for a new summon for me. But I love each Primal's story either way so...

I hope we see Fenrir as a Primal (If not, SMN MOUNT!)

Alexander

I hope Cait Sith and Fenrir become summonable that way eventually we can have 1 Egi per element (even though lolelementalanythinginthisgame) I just like having even balance to that sort of thing, having all 8. Water,Lightning,Earth,Wind,Ice,Fire,Light,Dark plus it'll be an even number that way too!
