    Alexander

    I'm kinda of upset we have to fight Alexander. Who has been a HOLY summon for YEARS! ; ; as a summoner this is disgraceful.... that is all.

    If it is, i will fight it with everything i have available. . I think primals in this game dont really adhere to holy = friendly trope though, the goblins are summoning him, so we have to reverse this otherwise he eats all the aether (or something like that, its lore stuff).

    He'a also portrayed as a fortress or guardian. Apparently he is now a Goblin Fortress.

    He is generally Holy as an element of light, and less as a religious savior (although Gobs may potentially see him that way). Besides, he's a Primal, and thus far they haven't proven to be very cuddly.

    Just very far from what Alexander has been seen in the final fantasy games. I like the concept just not the primal choice and I don't know how the lore will play out with him trying to destroy the land or drain it.

    Keep in mind that not all primals are harmful to the land by choice.

    I'm kind of concerned, I remember suggesting that the Goblin Primal should be Alexandur, as a kind of joke bucket and bolts rusty knock off of Alexander, but they actually get the real thing? Damn Goblins, you scary. Was totally expecting some cheese related Primal after Brayflox (unless... Alexander runs off cheese?!).

    As for us fighting him... Final Fantasy IV inspired. The Giant of Babil was basically the games version of Alexander, even went inside to fight him too. It's really noticeable if you look at Amano's artwork for it, the game sprite doesn't do it justice. Fully expecting the elemental fiends (Scarmiglione, Cagnazzo, Barbariccia, Rubicante) to make an appearance as bosses in the raid.
