Sujet : 3.4 speculation

Envoyé par Enkidoh

...Although having a similar sort of battle here in FFXIV would be fun, sadly the six Spoken races of Hydaelyn do not have a similar origin story to the races of Altana in FFXI which could fit into FFXIV's story easily. But I'm sure Mr Maehiro along with Mr Oda and Mr Koji Fox would work out some way of having a similar concept here in FFXIV.

I see. That is interesting. And I agree that the concept "as seen in XI", like other ideas from XI, would not be feasible as is, and that it would be fit in another way.

I don't think she was talking about their lore...

I'm aware of that, and while I am curious at the time of the post, as I mentioned before, I don't they will be a copy paste from XI, but I do think they would be similar to that group one way or another.

I don't agree with that, I believe we will have a full party trial where we take on all of them at once, one tank for the pld, one tank for the warrior with a possible tank swap, then dps have to burn the whm while the healers heal through the damage the blm and brd deal. My prediction for the fight is that it will be what's called a "council fight," you have to down them one a a time and each time you kill one the others heal back to full and may or may not get stronger (it's a pretty common raid mechanic in a lot of games). My speculation is the kill order will be whm -> blm -> brd -> warrior -> pld. Alisaie will come to us telling the WoD's are working with the Ascians and have to be stopped from doing what they're doing and then we'll either skirmish against the WoD's and drive them back where they'll swear to not go so easy on us next time or we'll have the fight I predicted above.

"Council fight" you mean like the Ward Up hest then? or the pacos battle in XIII-2?

Also, with their plans on adding more GC stuff in the next patch, I have a feeling some of the MSQ might be GC related. Ishgard is more or less fine as is which leaves the only remaining enemies as the WoD's and the Ascians. We're already contending with the Empire in the warring triad storyline, I highly doubt we'll face them in the MSQ while that's going on, otherwise it would just be rather redundant.

Actually I can see 3.4 or so to be the perfect time for Ishgard to start setting up a GC of their own (so long as Ameryc dosn't put Alphinaud in charge :P)

No.
