    I can't pick one so i subdivide!

    Design
    Sophia and Garuda cuz i'm a thirsty simpleton

    Personality
    Garuda and Susano but most don't have very distinct personalities to begin with so maybe that's unfair

    Fights
    Shiva and Sophia cuz I remember them being fast paced with a distinct mix of visual cues to avoid mechanics

    Soundtrack
    Lakshmi and WoL (or Sephirot if you want to argue that WoL doesn't count as a primal)

    This is a great way to subdivide!

    Design
    Lakshmi because I too am a thirsty simpleton. Embrace the Bosom!

    Personality
    Ravana and Susano because they just enjoy the challenge for the sake of it

    Fights
    Titan will always be the most memorable (pre edge nerf) Almost 10 years after 2.0 and people still get knocked off.

    Soundtrack
    Sephirot (big powerman 5000 fan) and Ravana for the waltz theme

    Veteran healers don't care if we need to heal, but right now we don't. We want interesting things to do during the downtime other than a 30s dot and a single filler spell that hasn't changed from lvl 4 to lvl 90.
    Dead DPS do no DPS. Raised DPS do 25/50% lower DPS. Do the mechanics and don't stand in bad stuff.
    Other games expect basic competence, FFXIV is pleasantly surprised by it. Other games have toxic elitism. FFXIV has toxic casualism.[/LIST]

    I liked Sophia and the creepy head that she rode on. Her lore is also interesting in that her followers planned on invading the Allagan Capitol by purposefully capturing her while sabotaging her locks so that she'll be released. That plan was was foiled though, but they still sabotaged her prison in Azys Lla.

    Another is Lakshmi because her tempered infiltrated the Resistance and planned on summoning her to temper the Ala Mhigan leaders.

    Garuda is also pretty vicious in 1.0 since she goes to a Gridaian settlement and kill the people there. We even see them floating in her tornado until she makes them fall. Then in ARR she kidnaps followers of Ifrit and Titan so she could force them to summon their Primals so that she could consume their aether.

    I like it when a Primal is an active threat to the environment and the people by actually doing things.

    For aesthetics and vibes, Sophia
    For music, Alexander (the raid has many songs but he's still technically a primal!)
    For mechanics... Does warrior of light count as a primal? Sort of? Lmao I dunno otherwise I guess shadowbringers Titan
    Overall ... Phoenix
    For reasons

    my personal fave is susano (and in a similar vein, ravana), since he's straightforward and fairly affable, and his theme song rocks

    some primals i like solely for their music, such as bismark (woe that is madness is my JAM)

    the eden primals are a fun spin on many of them, especially titan--though garuda and ifrit got the shaft hard, which is a real shame
