    On Limit Breaks and Summoner

    I was thinking about what each job's limit break could be. My first thoughts attracted me to dragoon, and how we didn't get the Dragon pet like in XI. Could it be possible that the dragoon limit break is a Dragon Summon? After all I believe they did say somewhere once upon a time they wanted to maybe include a dragon into an attack.

    Anyways this leads me on to Summoner. We were told that summoners will be calling lesser spirits. I believe this will still be true. We were also told that the Primal summoning system will be something a private company accomplishes. Could it be that the Summoner Limit break is to "Grand Summon" a primal, as a limit break requires the efforts of the entire party?

    Been discussed so many times.
    This thread is not new or unique.
    Also, speculation is bad, because it will most likely make us get our hopes up, and in the rare case that Yoshida-san falls short, we might get all upset.

    Oh I didn't know I searched but nothing turned up.

    and no speculation isn't bad. Don't attach hopes to speculation.

    99% of the people do.
    They might start hoping that summoners get to summon ifrit for limit break, and when thy turn out to be wrong they'll be like this:

    about that Dragoon limit break i assume it is or will be a dragon summoning
    if u followed the drg quest line story a drg can be consumed by a dragon similar like nidhog (you know what am aiming at)
    as for the rest i guess will be Epic WS for DoW maybe as including drg if he didnt get a dragon limit
    who knows

    Dragoon - I imagine the limit break will include the dragon from the quest line flying over and doing a fire breath in the fashion of a carpet bomb dealing massive dmg.

    White Mage - A heavenly light will shine down on the party members and every party member will gain a crazy amount of buffs (mega protect, mega shell, stoneskin, regen, haste, etc...)

    Black Mage - Meteor like we have already seen

    Warrior - Enrages (crazy TP/MP regen for party) the entire party and bull rushes the enemy causing an extended stun

    Paladin - Grants the party "Invincibility" for 30 seconds, revives all fallen team-mates and generates a massive amount of hate.

    Bard - A volley of arrows shot from Ballistae will impale the enemy causing massive damage and every debuff available

    Monk - A massive karate style attack that mame's all body parts and deals massive damage.


    Yeah..I know some are random lol..couldn't think of anything better.

    That would be so massively broken no other limit break would be necessary.

    That's not how bard works. It will most likely be a pt buff of some sort like Battle Voice is.

    Why would any party use an invincibility/revive buff if they aren't dying/dead? The only one that is actually affected by this limit break would be the whm since they would have nothing to do for 30 seconds, the rest the group would function exactly the same as without the buff. It seems to me that they would use any of the limit breaks that boost damage dealt that at point.

    Hell, I see little use for a planned 30 seconds immunity besides the obvious "avoid boss 2hr." Limit breaks seem, to me, more like well thought-out and properly timed group ability that ensures victory when done correctly. Not an "oh shit" mechanic that you activate when things are going south.

    Exactly, it would make every boss 2hr in the game completely pointless. Broken.
