Magus Sisters in FFXI?

[Souj]

1) ...No. That is a horrible idea


2) It's called sarcasm.

3) On topic, the Magis Sisters suck and should have nothing to do with FFXI past what they've already been used for already.

1)I'll agree, because the avatars changing from humans happened a very long time ago, it couldnt just happen again out of nowhere.

2) I already said it was probably sarcasm. good job arguing with ever last post made though btw.

3) did you ever use them? they far from sucked. true they weren't good for short fights, and alot of the fights at that point in the game were short (mostly because by the time you unlock them it's near the end of the game and youre most likely over leveled a bit.

it seems that people just like to believe what they want...

Over lvled? Have you even seen a Dark aeon? Max status/Ultimate weapon/Break HP and dmg limit, and you can still get pwned if you don't know what you're doing.
Best Aeon was Anima(discluding Yojimbo) for his multi-hit overdrive. Can't remember how Delta attack was, but remember it was "good". But then again I only used aeons for their overdrive, or to eat Zanmato from dark Yojimbo. :3

That goes the same to you, I believe. Cuz really at this point it could go either way (new avatar/new boss/typo/shikaree). No1 can completely disprove any of those until SE comes out and tells us.

[Souj]

dark aeons? I'm talking about using them, not fighting them. how does any of what i'm talking about make sense if i was talking about them? >.>
I never touched X-2

The Sisters weren't a Summon in IV either but it's listed.

People keep saying this, and don't realize that NO FFX-2 mobs/characters/summons are listed in Dissdia, not even as summons or playable characters. No Final Fantasy game is a sequel besides FFX-2, so they probably didn't want to add any elements from it PERIOD.

So there u have it, quit saying that it's a typo, because it's probably not. They list them from FFIV, FFX, and FFXI. The only solution is that, SE initially wanted the new summons to be out for December Update (i cant find the quote, but it's somewhere on this forum, from some interview of them saying it). Since they were having technical difficulties, they couldn't release them at the time.

So then the originally-planned-to-be-released Dissdia comes out, and it shows the Magus Sisters being in FFXI, which probably means they had meant for the December Update to add the Magus Sisters, before Dissdia release, and then they couldn't make any last minute changes before the games shipped out (millions or thousands of copies is kinda hard to adjust when they are being packaged).

This.

I still will stick with my long-held belief that they will finish either the celestial (Odin/Alex), or the terrestrial (Phoenix/Bahamut?) set. Magus sisters though.... ugh what's next? Shantotto as a pet?

TBH thats probley a Good Idea, to Create a SMN like this it would also beable to use summoner skill to a better use higher SMN skill = how well they will Obey ? or use of better attacks very intresting and unquie!!

This seems like the best idea at how to control them, but SE already said that we'd be asking how to control them, even after a few months after we get them. Magus Sisters always have a nack for "Taking a Break."

So aside from their auto-attack (which I hope they dont stop doing lol) their abilities will probably be similar Plankration(sp) mobs (where they give u that ghey menu to slightly influence your plankramon's actions, and maybe even based on summoning skill level (who knows).

Dark aeons was in response to "alot of the fights at that point in the game were short (mostly because by the time you unlock them it's near the end of the game and youre most likely over leveled a bit." Then I responded to "did you ever use them? they far from sucked." by saying that all aeons sucked unless you're using them for overdrive, or to eat a deadly attack, or for cheap kills(Yojimbo).

And I wasn't talking about FFX-2, Dark Aeons are probably the best superboss fights I've ever had, but they're only in FFX: International version, so maybe you played the NA version?

Sorry for not being clear. D:

Of course, the other option is that we see the Magus Sisters not as a summon, but as opponents.

Let's just think about this. Shantotto is the FFXI "heroine" for Dissidia. If the Magus Sisters are the FFXI "bad guy(s)", it'd make sense.

My bet: We see them in the mini-expansion that involves Shantotto. Windurst witch vs. a trio of bitch.

I think they suck as characters and as summons, no matter how overpowered they were in X. I just don't like them. I didn't like them in X and I wouldn't like them in XI.

...I never said it was a Typo, I just said they weren't Avatars in IV and yet were still listed as being in IV. Which means *gasp* they don't have to be avatars to be in XI! Which BTW, they ARE in XI, they're the Shikarees. And SE knew far before the December patch that the new Avatars wouldn't be added to FFXI, it wasn't some last minute decision, it was something they've known about for a long time.

I still will stick with my long-held belief that they will finish either the celestial (Odin/Alex), or the terrestrial (Phoenix/Bahamut?) set. Magus sisters though.... ugh what's next? Shantotto as a pet?

Neither Odin, Alex or Bahamut will ever serve a player's whims, though Phoenix is an option. I just don't see him being added this update.

SE didn't say we'll have problems controlling them, they said they'd work different then current avatars and have less focus on abilities. And it's already bad enough that Smns have to put up with the "skill over cap" crap to get anything from Smn skill, the last thing they need is an avatar that will ignore them if they're underskilled(which from everything I've heard is a bitch to level). Guess how much use an Avatar that couldn't be controlled would get in a battle.

Other then the fact that they're already in the game as bosses, the Shantotto story seems to be setting her up as the "bad guy".

Only thing I know about SMNs is they fucking love the multi-quote function.

Would you prefer I quote each comment in it's own little post?

P.S. I'm not a Smn.

[Cloudius]

Phoenix is an option. I just don't see him being added this update

yay raisaga. =D

[Karbuncle]

Don't you recieve the title "Delta Enforcer" From defeating Mithran Trackers in CoP 5-3?

I Thought you did, dunno if it would be significant seeing as the title is named after Magus' Sisters special attack, or at the least closely worded.


--- I'm still hoping for the Magus sisters though -.- i really am just from the potential.


Edit: Seems to come from the Moblin fight, Not Mithran Trackers... So theres still hope! yay!

[Nadrojj]

Magus, not magnus....

My money's on a typo for FFX-2.

Seconded.

[Souj]

I'm going to requote this cause it just seems to answer the question.

why would they not say what avatar they were adding at fanfast, but then add in that little clue in the game?

[Sho]

Seems like the people that don't want them to be added aren't thinking rationally, lol.

[Sephiroth_Owa 13]

Would be cool if they added them as a summon in the game but it seems like we already have in the Sin Hunters. And for the fan boys "Oh but one isn't fat" Doubt SE would make a fat Mithra...
But hey well know for sure when they "Hey guy these are the summons, have fun!"
Of which I'm guessing they prob wont add till like mid-late year for a update.
Again would be cool to have them and see how they work if it's x3 at once or have to pick one.
And does anyone know if this is right?
Fenrir = RoZ
Diablos = CoP
As for new avatars...
Odin or Alexander = ToUA ?
Ixion, Cait Sith or Atomos = WotG ?
They might stick with that line. A avatar per expansion.
Idk where the Magus Sisters would fit.

(forgot about Cait Sith and Atomos)
