Endwalker dungeon #1 lore mistake?

[Abomination713]

So during the first dungeon of Endwalker, we fight the Magus Sisters as the bosses, but they are the normal versions of them and not Lunar. I thought the tower could only summon Lunar variants so why the these bosses look normal? Yes, we didn't fight them anywhere else, but we did see a picture of them so we know what they are suppose to look like.

Is this a mistake from the devs or am I missing something? Seems like such a weird thing to overlook since we learned all about the towers and their Lunar summons before the expansion came out.

It is a weird inconsistency with the official artwork for Zot that had the sisters using the lunar color scheme.

They may have just chosen to stick with it for the sake of remaining faithful to their original designs.

Did we ever really get an explanation on what was different about 'lunar' primals anyway?

Fandaniel came up with the name. Mostly to be extra.

What is different between them and normal primals is that they can't temper people, as that power was given to the towers specifically. Beyond that, there's not much of a difference. Like KageTokage said, they were probably being faithful to the orginal design of the Magus Sisters.

Most likely. Also I feel like the 'lunar' thing was brought in just to touch up the models to be more fresh. Since the Magus Sisters are new to the game, they went with something more faithful rather than a lunar version when they had no baseline.

It may also have something to do with the fact that the originals had already been defeated, something Fandaniel likely kept in mind. They couldn't use the original versions because the WoL along with Fordola and Arenvald had already defeated them, meaning their tricks were known. Lunar versions however would have new tricks due to having a brand new form. The Magus Sisters, a threat the WoL nor anybody had ever fought, would be usable in their original form due to this reason.
