    Valkyrion, that poster on KI was a giant tard. Cmon the idea that bahamut is ingame and some japanese guy already had it?

    Give me a break.


    Lets just get down what we know from the video.

    1) a group of NPCs approch what looks like an oversized protocrystal with something inside that has wings. Could be bahamut, could be promathia, who knows.

    2) in this same room theres some sort of fight/strugle and something goes wrong.

    3) There is more than 1 Bahamut type dragon. (See picture below)

      Either way, I wouldn't be suprised if they were to make Bahamut a avatar, as for the difficulty of being able to get him, I'm sure it will be nearly impossible to obtain. This will insure that only a few players will be able to get him and not just any player who wants him becuase he's cool looking. Getting Bahamut will probably be a long and egregious quest, having a character over L70, zilart missions completed and a good amount of high level players at your disposal. These are just ideas, nothing I have said he has been set in stone, we will all just have to wait and see when the expansion comes out.

        Whatever he is, I sincerely hope the Dragoons will play a role in this. That would make me so happy.

            A new intro for the Chains of Promathia Page inside the PlayOnline Viewer has been made... maybe this part of it may clear things up a bit



            Ok, it's a little blurry, but watch the animation for yourself and Bahamut won't look all that nice...

              Bahamut is huge (look at the video of him against the Airships). If SE ever makes him a summon/avatar in FFXI, they'd probably give you a mini-version of him, heh. If not, my guess is he's going to be a Mission-type monster or HNM. It seems to me that Bahamut is one of those ancient avatars or something of that sort, since he is coming with CoP expansion.

              I bet Dragoons will be recruited for the fight though. :3

                Nearly impossible to obtain....check
                Long quest ... check
                70+ to defeat....check

                And thats different from Fenrir how?

                Up til now no Avatar has been part of the main storyline/missions... Why would SE make it part of the story line now...not everyone plays SMN, and the people shown in the video are part of the missions.

                    in my opinion bahamut will be the evil guy in the CoP missions and when you finished all missions youll be able to summon him XD (or at least a baby version of him @.@)

                      Hmmm, or could it be possible that Bahamut is not a bad guy? Maybe he's a good NPC in the plot. And all the people are bad people trying to kill him o_O? ....Just a thought.

                        I think they messed with that on one of the updates because you used to be able to do that with multiple spells that werent yet in the game (or mob only) ...however if they haven't locked it off and its been added to the code somewhere already you can use:

                        /recast

                        if youre bored play with it, try these:

                        /recast "Cure VI"
                        /recast "Utsusemi: San"
                        /recast "Meteor II"

                        etc.

                          Bahamut being a summon is like one of the Arch Angels becoming a summon. He is story based. Plain and simple.

                            I can't understand why they wouldn't make Bahamut a summon sometime. (Probably much later as with Fenrir)

                            After all, people nagged enough about the damn chocobos and look what seems to come. Personal chocobos.

                            If anyone think there will be less nagging about bahamut as a summon, than personal chocobos, then they have another view of the world than me.

                              Ok let's get serious guys.
                              We speak like SE had no clue about bahamuts been a Summon in the past games. (and it would be kind of funny if they didn't know but thats not the point ^^)

                              Anyway they are bound to know that is the take the decition NOT to make him into an avatar they are also bound to know that almost every SMN in the game will complain.

                              Sure they might say that adding him would make the SMN job to overpowerful because they simply would not make him as weak as the other summons (because they are kind of weak, I mean how hot is SMNs in ballista).

                              But if you want something to happend, there are solutions to everything. You just need to find them.

                              I wouldent mind if bahamut would be decided as the damage avatar as you might call Carbuncle the Healing avatar or even buffing. Make him be the avatar with best damage, and thats it. Thats what hes good for. Make him harder to obtain than fenrir because many of us has seen the video were fenrir litteraly gets PWNED. I dont say hes easy, I only say that there can be harder challenges.

                              Another solution could be to take a sneak peak to the BST job.
                              How come this job can kill mobs at the same level as itself solo and no one complain? Maybe Bahamut should be much stronger than the previous avatars but as a punishment, he will leech exp from you as a BSTs pet.

                              These are only some ideas of solutions and I dont say they are good I only try and give you some examples, there are plenty of possebilities how Bahamut could be an avatar.

                              There is nothing preventing SE from adding him.
                              But since the recent announcement of him I can say one thing, whatever they have planned, it sure will be hard to change their plans. If not impossible.

                                it seems to me that bahamut is gonna play an important part in the upcoming CoP storyline. if this is true than he will undoubtedly never become a summonable creature. ive heard people saying that "oh hes summonable in just about every other FF so it has to say the same!" but we all know FFXI is nothing like any of its predecessors.

                                bahamut may be just a godlike figure that spreads knowledge of some secret or something. or he may be a boss. maybe all of these screens with that samurai guy are all flashbacks from the past? like what happenes in mission 10? i know that there "was" an airship armada long ago, as the vana'diel tribune said so but then they turned to a more commercial use.

                                whatever it is we will have to wait for it to come out in a few weeks :spin:
