Ifrit Fight

Agreed it does look less dynamic but its still a step in the right direction, hopefully as the dev progress with boss encounters they will get better at coming up with interesting fights.

Any progress is still progress I suppose.

The visual aspects of the fight look great, i just wish the battle system wasnt so sluggish. Obviously we caint see the whole fight, i imagine alot of spreading out and running away from aoe. Tank kiteing when traps are being spammed, that will hinder the melee ie. they probably wont be very effective dps dureing the trap phase.

30 min fight, probably only takes 10 mins to kill
Lots of Aoe damage, 2-3 cons
1 tank with fire resist and stacked vit and mnd
4-5 dps , prime conditioning and second wind would be helpful; self cureing will be a necessity

He looks like a re-skin of one of the current beastmen models in the game.

In terms of the fight, looks like a sub-par fight compared to what we have nowadays in WoW and games like it.

Everyone their own opinion, but sometimes I feel people (especially on this board) are way too unappreciative.

No offense~

It is connected to the story, there is a main quest that features Ifrit which is linked to one of the beast tribes and the effects the Garlean Empire is having on them.

I thought they were collapsing the story abit to add more to the end and leave the cap at 50 so maybe Ifrit might become a L30 cutscene now

They had mentioned that they plan on changing the mission quests up a bit so that could possibly be so.

They might lower the story rank requirements and add in acouple more

I just have to say what a GREAT idea on releasing a trailer for this fight. I think people who see this trailer (especially FF11 people, or people who quit) will give this game another go. It was a very good idea to show that they were losing the battle, because it shows that it's not just another easy quest. I also highly agree with the delay for the update, even if they used those couple extra days to rest lol. Huge Kudos on the idea of a trailer

nice to see more easy mode for the casuals, joking.
