The Ghostly Touch

[Siegtaru]

I wouldn't mind more monster types that generally freak people out.

A few that always made me want to run away (especially as a Taru) in FFXI that I always enjoyed were...

Diremites
Minotaurs
Those gigantic moth things in the ToAU zone with Cerberus in it (particularly the ones that were fully grown and could fly.) I hated these a LOT.

I've been saying this a few times throughout XIV. Gusgen Mines is one of my favourite places in XI (Arrapago Reef my most favourite place and has a similar feel). This is a good idea.

I liked the ghosts in gusgen (Especially the ones that were hanged from the ceiling), so I'm all for a haunt in ARR for our ghastly friends.

I never went to Gusgen Mine alone in FFXI nor did I wanted to! That place was scary!!
Thus, I approve of this suggestion. We truly need strong ghostly touches in Eorzea, undeads are part of the lore too!
(at more than one place too -- ghostly FATE at night would be awesome too; the night becomes even darker, a thick ghastly mist appears, the music changes to deep horrifying tones... and bam! Ambushed by sneaky ghosts popping out of nowhere! ...or Slender men.)

I thought about the FATE system and ghosts too! and i agree especially in the way your wrote it =P added to the list.

Edit: i didnt actually know what slender men were till i just checked now i assumed you ment skeletons =P I guess SE can find a way to implement them if they want to i mean they could be long dead angry relatives of hildibrand or who knows! They remind me of the gentlemen i think they were called? from buffy the vampire slayer tv series those guys were about the scariest things in the show that i remember.

I meant Slender from Slender:Eight pages just because it's scary as hell! If we could have some FATE like that spread throughout Eorzea... man! That would be awesome!! (With FF mobs of course, but you get the idea)

Ahh i see =)

I get the vibe that from the responces so far that i should say that not every Ghostly encounter has to end in Adventurers soiling themselves in fear. It could be as simple as a specter appearing in a chair at a certain time and then fading away. The sort of thing that could make you stop and say "I've come here many times and never seen that before"

Perhaps there are already plans when it comes to the undead. Remember that "Ascian" from one of the story cut scenes? It was never really explained or fleshed out.

Perhaps but we can still share our ideas in hopes SE pick them up.

You should read this if you haven't the Ascians are involved with a certain character in the Lominsan storyline.
