    Suggestion: New Ascian Boss theme

    I can't believe this idea hadn't been capitalized on yet!

    As of now, the Thunderer BGM from Lahabrea/Twintania/Nabriales plays when you fight them. However, Ascians should have their own BGM that fits with their Ivalice summon/esper theme; they are important story bosses after all and SE has been on a roll with including old beloved themes in the game as of recently.

    Well since they are derived from Ivalice summons, why don't they have a remix of the Esper Battle theme from FF12? There's already a version in Dissidia that would work quite well, but an original FF14 ARR rendition (ala Terra's theme for Magitek armor) would be a nice addition and a throwback to the Ivalice games (which, in my opinion, are pretty darn lacking in tributes, in FF14).

    Uh, the Ascians already have their own personal leitmotif - Nobuo Uematsu's Without Shadow which normally plays in cutscenes, so unless it was a variation of this Thunderer is a good enough battle theme as it is.

    Also, the Ascians are not the Espers/Scions of Light - they might reuse the names, but that's just a fanservice reference, like Biggs and Wedge not being the Garlean soldiers who accompanied Terra in FFVI, Barret's AVALANCHE members in FFVII, bumbling Galbadian soldiers in FFVIII etc. So Esper Battle just would not fit.
