A thought: Where are the other recurring characters such as...

[KaivaC]

Technically it wouldnt really be recurring, given that both my wish-primals only appaeared in FFX (my personal favorite of the series), but I'd love to see them finally reveal Valefor, who they hinted at in that sidequest with the doman kids in Mor Dhona!

But Valefor is only on my wish-list because I liked her so much as summon in FFX (I'd just take a Valefor-Mount aswell, please and thank you) - who I think would make for an intresting fight is Anima! If they keep the FFX-design, we'd end up with a top and a bottom half, which would make for an excellent way to split an 8-man-party 4/4 for at least part of the fights. I really think she could make for an intresting trial!

I hadn't even though about Valefor, even though it is a popular "newer" summon. I can totally see Anima being a thing too in FFXIV, given things like the Black Death, all the genocide that the Garleans have committed, things like that. I like the idea of having to split party members to fight the different halves. I mean, they did come up with some creative fights (the time loop mechanic for A12, the gravity mechanic in O2, dealing with specific bosses in O12).

I'd love some moombas of course we don't know what the other beast tribes for 5.0 are yet. I'd think we'd get the god/primal that goes with the Nu Muh. We have gotten a little of 8 but compared to 7, 6, 5 and 4 you'd of thought it didn't sell well or something. Of course we also don't have a lot from 9 either.

9 has this weird thing where some of the references I want are already in. Like the Prima Vista and Ozma. Maybe...Ark? Since we're going to Garlemald?

Isn't Cruise Chaser from the Alexander raids supposed to be this game's proxy for Ark?

Ahhhh....good point. Forgot about that one. Good catch.

Don't sweat it lol. Another cool thing I would like to see would be Eden from FFVIII, though.

If we go to the moon (which I'm almost positive we will, since that is literally Zodiark's corpse and where the Ascians live), there might be a 24-man raid or savage dungeon where we will see Magus Sisters/4 Archfiends from FF4. Having the FF1 fiends is tricky because Kraken, Lich, and Tiamat already exist as different kinds of mobs. The 4 fiends from FF4 have more personality and style, anyway. They've nearly existed all bosses from FF1-6, so I think we may start seeing more bosses from FF7+ honestly. Especially with Garlemald being front and center, there's tons of machina in FF7 to draw from. Proud Clad, Airbuster, Heligunner, Carry Armor. There's X-ATM092 from FF8, BGH251F2, and Mobile Type 8

The name "Valefor" is used for the Anantaboga enemies in the first room of Labyrinth of the Ancients. (Rather disappointing if that's a sign that the FFX summon won't be getting added anywhere.)

[Astarotha]

i point you to belias-egi from smn questline and belias the gigas from RtI, plus sometimes they can sneak in the same enemy through alternate names like Altima or even different civilizations copping a name for reasons (the entire garlean empire)

[WhiteArchmage]

I point to the whole Halicarnassus in Haukke HM/Sigmascape deal (plus, the Titan/Acheron/Phlegethon deal) that sometimes enemy names can get retconned (Oh, some of the Sons mistranslated this one character from the Anciant Allagan) or given some vague lore-like justification (Halicarnassus the Succubus was named after the queen in an old Ilsabardian fairytale). That said, given that Valefor has actually been name-dropped TWICE (LotA and Doman Adventurer's Guild storyline), I don't think we'd be seeing her anytime soon.

Frankly, since my favorite Summons are already in-game (Knights of the Round and Alexander), I'd like to see Anima for reasons mentioned above

The summon was mentioned in the quest I was refering to, though. And they've changed the names of mobs before, so I dont see that as an indicator that we'll never see Valefor as some kind of primal/summon.

I'm new to the FF series, but I was hugely into the Phantasy Star series (namely 3 and 4) I'm finding a lot of cross-over lore in this game now that I'm better understanding it. I highly recommend people who never played Phantasy Star on Genesis take a look at it. Start with 4 then go to 3.

Anyone who knows both series feel the same?
