    Bahamut v1 and v2 are both alliance fights.

    Waking the Beast has 18 man fights against more powerful versions of the primes, but I don't know if story-wise that's their full power.

      If it was gear that served only to make us look more and more like White Mages, then I'm happy of the prospect of not getting it.

      But, yeah, cool stuff in this update. The Nomad Moogle in Selbina might make me a little less reluctant to take my Tarudin through the Dunes, the furniture stuff is all nice, can't wait to see the new pieces of equipment, new graphics on HELM items and Sea Torques?, 'kitten totally called the Coffee Muffin thing, woot on storing the new Feast Swords, I wonder what level Reprisal is gained, huzzah for Monks and Bards, meh for Group II Merits, Inventory Sort YES PLEASE!!!, and so on.

      All in all a nice update.

        "They do this with NPCs in game, so obviously when they're talking about things made for player characters outside of the game they'd do the exact same thing."?
        I'm not talking about Manaburning if that's what you mean. But both Fenny and Diabolos are easier to access and easier to win then Baha v1 and Alex.

        "Oh hai Mr. Bahamoot, I no u only wanna kill all humans, but wuld u mind coming out whenever I call, k?"

        Yea, no.

        And seeing as they've done this same thing repeatedly, time and time again, showing mixed matched gear in update notes with no regard to class equip restrictions, then yes, they will mix and match gear for update pics with no regard for class equip restrictions. For crying out loud, the elf in the picture in this very update is wearing Whm AND Rdm JSE armor.

            No, it's not their full power, (since that would mean they're awakened fully to lay the smack down on Vana'Diel and reduce the terrestrials back to animals). It's done story-wise as "closer" to their full power. Think of it like a pendulum. At the weak end of things is how we face them in regular and tiny sized quests. (I'd guess Trial Size Quests are the very end of the weak spectrum). On the other end of that is Waking the Beast versions and on the tip of that pendulum swing would be fully awake.

              Used my ex's account to log in on the PC to free up my main account, so if one machine finishes first, I can play Aks on either. And this is what I was greeted with in POL. ^_^

              Makes me happy to see this.

                Footwork was the best name they could come up with?

                  Well, I believe "The Zohan" would cause some royalty issues with Adam Sandler. Smell it, smell it, now TASTE it.

                      Diabolos being easier to access than Alex is very very debatable. More people having BOTHERED to go through COP to get sea doesn't make it EASIER.

                      And whoever said projection was a voluntary affair? It's completely possible that a Summoner could project an avatar without an agreement; with the consequence of being unable to control it. That would be a rather interesting element to introduce, really.

                      Yes, I know. That's how we got on the subject, remember, buddy? I see no reason to say right now that it's impossible that they're actually going to be making it possible to have those armors (as in, dats, not the specific pieces) equipped at the same time.

                          That's an interesting idea. It would make certain avatars behave basically like Elementals do now.
