I'm not saying that there's anything wrong with the Prime battles. In fact, having those avatars available to you right off the bat is really handy and makes you more valuable to your party in the dunes.

All I'm saying is that if I'm going to battle these Avatars, I want to face them as a Summoner. And there are firm strategies that take away a lot of the frustration inherent in these battles.

Plus, I like the challenge.

So yeah, I do think that the Prime battles take the fun out of it, for me.
