Primal Rush

[Altijacek]

Is it just me or does anybody want to see a primal rush mode? Including Garuda, Titan, Ifrit, Mog, Leviathan, Ramuh, and Shiva. You're on a timer and have to fight them in a randomized order. If you wipe at all, at any fight, your progress is reset.

Clearing primal rush can net you gear that just five levels below raiding gear, as an alternative way to gear up. So at this point it would be i125. There could also be rare minions, achievements, rare crafting mats, etc.

There will be extreme and hard mode. Hard mode obviously much lower level rewards.

Interesting concept, but I don't think this would ever work out at all with randoms and the risk is simply too high; one wipe and it's back to round 1? No thanks. Just have it where if you wipe, your rush ends there and you get whatever prize at that tier.

7 primal fights in a row might be a bit too taxing for most people.

Personally I'd love to see a Primal Tag team fight. Pair them bad boys up(and girls) up! Garuda and Ifrit vs an 8 man party? That sounds fun! Titan and Shiva? Moogle Mog and co and Ramuh? Personally, HM Primal fights are a cake walk with high level armor now adays, that'd be a good way to up the ante for sure.

I'm so over primals. I'd just rather see new content that isn't recycled.

This. So over it I never bothered to even attempt Levi EX > Ramuh EX > Shiva EX. Let's be done with the Primal stories already....

You don't like boss battles? Or are you sating you do not like facing classic elemental manifestations in this game, set in an arena to be faced by 8 players? this is a serious question, not trolling.

I like boss battles, but I find Primal boss battles lacking. Funny enough, I like Thornmarch in all its iterations to be most fun, just cause of it being slightly comedic and VERY chaotic (unpredictable, or more unpredictable than the other ones we have). Mostly, I'm just tired of getting a new primal with a weak story behind it being reduced to an arena team-jumprope fight that gets repeated to no end like they're some cheap mobs. This is totally in my head though, as it makes me think Primals are easily accessible weak opponents, instead of being Primals of great power. Once you do a Primal for the purpose of progressing the story, you hear nothing from or about them. You can, of course, continue to grind them, but the bottom line is that they become trivial till their next iteration (Story Mode > Hard Mode > Extreme > Insane? and that's just for the new set of iLvl items, nothing that would tie them more to our world or give them more depth. I could elaborate more but I hope this is enough, without smothering you in text

Maybe the idea of setting the reward to however many you complete is better lol. Only the most extreme would tackle it if you had to do it without wiping

[Shneibel]

have the reward base on how many primal you beat & remove the HM, HM is not worth it

[Autumnfire]

You could even have it where instead of going back to square one on a wipe, you just have the timer. After all, if you wipe too many times, your timer will run out eventually, right?
