POSSIBLE PRIMAL

[Silvykins]

As many of you know they will most likely release at least 2 or 3 more primals this expansion all leading towards the next expansion. Now with many actual primals of the past still not revealed yet. The current release of zones gives me an idea of what 1 of them could be.

As we all know a lot of the zones this expansion are desert based hence the middle eastern look and if you look at all the primals that haven't been used from the past you'd realize golem is on that list and is a desert primal. I think its not gonna happen unless I'm totally reading the future, but if you think about it for most of the zones having a large area of sand wouldn't golem under a different name be the perfect choice?

ps: for those of you who might think golem is a different name for the earlier titan its not they are two separate primals.

Golem is no summon or qualified as "primal".

Golem is a type of enemy, you can encounter in different places all over Eorzea and in several dungeons as enemies or bosses.

I swear someone said that the whole "7th floor" deal that one Rising event (or whatever floor it was) hinted at Doomtrain being worked on. Which I hope is true, cause I want to see Doomtrain so bad. He was one of my favorite summons. I'd also love to see Hades, but I'm not sure how they would work that in. Also Anima from FFX.

Yoshi-P has already hinted at Doomtrain possibly being in the expansion that deals with Garlemald, so I doubt it'll be one of the primal fights in 4.x.

Maybe one of the new primals will be tied to the Qiqirn in The Peaks. Or perhaps we'll get a similar quest chain similar to the Warring Triad, involving those four gods on the Far East world map.

It would make far more sense in an expansion that focuses heavily on magitech and machinery in general, yeah.

Also, at some point they're just going to straight up run out of primals/summons from FF lore and need to start creating entire expansions with only new ones.

They kind of already have. IIRC Ravana and Lakshimi are new.

My predictions:
- The Namazu end up summoning a primal resembling a catfish.
- Crazy stuff happens in the Azim Steppes when the WoL and their allies aren't paying any attention to the area because of reconstruction efforts, and an incarnation of the Dawn Father and Dusk Mother are summoned as primals simultaneously.

Susano is new. Lakshmi is from FFVI.

They can use the FFIV's elemenetal fiends instead: Rubicante, Cagnazzo, Scarmiglione and Barbariccia.



I wish they are included in the next Omega Raid though. Along with Zemus/Zeromus.

Tht's my thoughts too, I would see a fight with the 4 fiends like A6 where we have to deal with the 4 robots.

We have two Halicarnassus. We can have two Anima.

The latest Halicarnassus isn't the real Halicarnassus FFXIV lore wise. It's just Omega's creation from a book narrating the story of FFV.

Still have a bunch that they can steal from 6, 7, and 8.

Maduin
Fenrir (they actually did a retcon to open things up so they could have a full Fenrir summon)
Valigarmanda
Quetzalli
Raiden
Hades
Pandemona
Doomtrain
Eden
Griever

This doesn't even account for other non-summons they could turn into Eikons.

Ravana was new. Lakshimi originally appeared in FF6.

Oh, we're not there YET, for sure.

Eventually, we'll be looking at all new primals made for XIV.

Though, by the time that happens, the nature of what a "primal" even is may have shifted so much that it's not going to be what it used to be any longer.

I still remember that thing back from 1999 (playing FF VIII).
This and Anima would be excellent as next primals for FF XIV.

Doomtrain mount for the win! (with 1+3 additional people onboard)
