Which of the Four Fiends Will Be Done Best?

[Vyrerus]

So, we've got FFIV references aplenty coming in Endwalker, more than likely.

First, what's your favorite Fiend from the Four Fiends of Elements from FFIV?

Second, given FFXIV's mechanics, graphics, gameplay, and use of colors, which of them do you think will be best represented and how come?



I expect that Rubicant will be done the best, but Valvalis(Babariccia) will be the fan favorite(Cause Babarboobas).

I also kind of expect them to be the trial fights in much the same way that the Auspices and then the Weapons stepped in to mostly fill the void for Primals.

This means they'll each have Soken's rendition of Battle Against Four Fiends probably followed up by a new song, similar to the treatment the Warring Triad got, I hope!

Of course, there's the possibility they aren't utilized at all, but that'd be a shame. Tell me your thoughts!

Thanks for reminding me of this.

FF4, Appearance of Golbez's Four Lords of the Elements

I realized just how much I don't know about Final Fantasy history after reading this. I wish there was a digital Lore book for all the final fantasy games.

Perhaps they'll be featured during the Endwalkers Raid.
And if the'll add an Ultimate version you'll fight all of them.

I know little of very few FF-titles and I only know about these from the music clip I posted earlier, so extremely little.
But it would be fun to face them.

There needs to be some sort of heal mechanic with Rubicante. Not a mechanic that is healer intensive, but one that makes Rubicante heal you to put you back onto an even playing field.

But I think Rubicante will be done the best since they have the most to work with. He always seemed to be in charge and the most intelligent and honorable. Scarmiglione and Cagnazzo always come across as idiot foot soldiers who do what they are told more than actual villains and Barbariccia is just crazy, very much like Garuda and having 2 busty wind fiends who are nutter butters would be boring. Cagnazzo especially is weird since he was supposed to be impersonating a king but again comes across as just a complete dolt.

Regardless this would make me explode in nostalgia, much like the three fiends and the entire omega series did. They just need to do it well and tell a good story. The sky gods had a decent story and so did the weapons, but they always felt a little too rushed. If they added just a bit more it would have been top tier. I am 100% ok with the long story the 24 man raids get, for the primals not in the msq.

Rubicante tends to be the most thought out so probably him.
A remix of battle of the four fiends though... would love it, maybe even vocals i wonder.

Rubicante. and he better say his lines


i don't recall exactly what he says after edge casts Flame on him, but it's something like, "Let me show you how it's done." this scene needs to be there

Maybe as a new trial series but not raid, Dev said in last direct that all the Raid and Raid alliance will be completly original to FFXIV

Ok, I must've missed/forgotten that line.

I just thought that raids got multiple tiers with 4 fights in each.
So either each would be the end boss of each tier, or a tier dedicated to them.
But if they've already said it's all gonna be original then my idea is already scraped. ^^'

But the new raid series is literally named after the final dungeon of FF2?
