you will win cards in both ways.. through duels and drops.. which i think is kinda cool..

card drops are also quiet nice addition to traditional drops

They consume Aether in their summoning, after they're defeated that Aether slowly returns. If we summon them the same was Iceheart did, we can return the Aether by dismissing them, rather than having to fight them to the death. Remember, Iceheart was in complete control when she summoned Shiva, she effectively had the Primal on a leash, while all other Primals were just free to do whatever. If we summon them, there would be no reason for us to have to fight them at all.

The odd thing is, Gaius van Baelsar remembers it... He clearly referenced it during Praetorium... Yet now we have a situation where the Scions (who've regained there memories following Praetorium, I might add) are going "We can summon as well?!", "Good thing the Garleans didn't learn of this!"... Heck, there was a quest in Little Ala Mhigo where there was a plot to summon one of the Twelve "similar to what happened at Carteneau"... I'm fairly sure it's all just a hilarious plot hole... The only thing the Scions should have been shocked about in 2.4 was Iceheart using her own body to summon Shiva, everything else has basically already happened...

YEAH ME AND BUTTSTALLION WISH TO RACE!

I still think Nero makes it out of WoD more or less alive and will be the one that mentors DRK in 3.0. I think he'll end up in Gridania since there's no tank guild there yet.

As to the Main Story surprise, I think that most people have felt a little conflicted fighting Shiva as her goals pretty much align with ours. The Keeper of the Lake will probably show us that the Dravanians are on our side - which is fairly obvious considering they fought against the Garlean invasion as well - and that the real issue is the religious nutters that control Ishgard. The Battle for Ishgard will be about changing that regime to one that is more friendly to outsiders (so we can get in) and which can reach a truce with the Dravanians (so we can get out into the skies beyond it without having to fight Dragons all the time). I assume that we'll have Frosty (Iceheart) on our side in that battle (though not in Shiva form). I suspect that we will find that the leadership in Ishgard is really in control of the Dravanian Horde, and uses them to justify their autocratic rule. So I suspect we will battle the Ishgard leadership, both in human and in dragon form.

I would love to see this Mount as an Achievment at the Goldsaucer!
It would be awesome if you could win this by reaching some Achievments at the Goldsaucer!
Please, let this dream come true! (Can´t stand actual mounts)

At least it is the legendary GBIKE FROM THE GOLDSAUCER!!!

That didn't look like anything like I thought it would...

Very true. Despite the fact we know Yoshi-P said it'll release on the 20th of january it all just feels... odd.
