i've read recently dat sazhs eidolon is ifrit n dat he turns into a racecar (sounds aite a little weird though). cant post links cuz i'm doin dis from my psp. though i read it both on wikipedia and gamespot. i'll add links as soon as i can access a computer.
IGN had this in an article as well. Apparantly it transforms into a hot rod-ish car. I need to stop reading those articles, kinda gives away a lot of surprises...
A race car? This is smurfing stupid. I hope you're able to get through the game easily enough without using summons.
I just died a little on the inside. :(Quote:

And as silly as this tranformer mechanic is sounding, I won't let it get in the way if it works out well and is fun. :p
Yay! I guessed his Eidolon! :bounce:
Now, if only Hope gets Siren...
Summons have never been necessary, just a fun factor or convenience. Only time they were really useful was in FFVIII b/c they determined what stats you could junction.Quote:

Agreed with LOM, although the Magus Sisters, after you power them up to deal close to 99999 damage owned, espicially with Passado (Or as I now call it, 99999-ado)
You forget FFVI, my good Kyros.Quote:

I'll just reword it, they were never needed in combat ever.Quote:

Also, screw Ruby Weapon b/c he was a waste of time that gave you a crap reward. I already had a gold chocobo whose stats were tons better than this one and who was undefeated with probably like 50+ wins at gold saucer easy (yes I know I wasted too much time here I was bored and yes I faced that guy with the fedora on the black chocobo all the time, he sucked).
i'm alright with da whole summons turning into vehicle (not da best idea, but i don't c a problem). it'll most likely give summons more purpose in da game than just monsters u summon cuz u found (VII).
If summons will be turning into vehicles I wonder if w/e summon they use for the wind element will be the new airship?
It would make sense... What with all the other summons in the game :rolleyes2Quote:

well sorry guys but it turns out dat da fire summon with sazh is NOT ifrit. its supposidly a new summon named surt a fire knight. sorry for leadin u guys. though on da bright side we can expect 2 more characters cuz we all know hope is goin 2 get either ifrit, bahamuth, or siren.
Man... I've played too much MegaTen cause I saw Surt in XIII and was disappointed it wasn't a red giant with a flaming sword... :(
He kinda looks like a rejected Transformer from the Hollywood films. Wonder if he'll have an offensive voice to go with it...
I don't think we should automatically presume that each summon in the game is used by a player character, they could be summons of other l'Cies that aren't playable.Quote:

But awful useful (as it seems to trigger constant adjacent/nearby attacks).
all hail bahamut the pogo stick.................
in 12, the summons sucked so bad, Not only did they copletly smurf up the camra, they completly waisted mp if they died no sooner than you summoned them, When I (SPOILER)Had to use belias to open the damn gate to giruvegan I spent X+ hours trying to figure out what it ment by blah blah blah gigas, Thank god mean wile my friend was still in raithwals tomb and i heard belias referred to as a gigas and it jolted my brain.
Iv read that Lightning, wile summoning odin, she can ride on his horse and attack the enemy, and im now happy that snows weapon is his fist, I was really pissed by all the long range crap, But im not to sure about the racecar, it just dont seam very FFish
Actually, Snowe's weapon is his trenchcoat... Its hinted to apparently be a super suit that augments his abilities.
