alexander/odin speculation

[Guitarman]

Well at the end of TOAU it was said that a portal was open inside Alexander's old armor or something of that nature. I am sure it will be a BCNM type deal after you complete TOAU to get Alexander. For Odin I am not sure, might be the same BCNM.

Ugh at Odin/Alexander. I'm so disappointed that part of me doesn't even want to exert the effort to get them just so I can be /sadface. Undoubtedly they will be available through some quest. I personally highly doubt it will involve a BCNM, you are not truly unlocking the avatar, just a special ability basically, like a once per 2hrs summoner weaponskill -.-

Also I don't think they will nerf SMN burn, but I do know that Odin's pact won't work for it.

They've already dealt with that.

Avatar: Odin
- More monsters within the area of effect will reduce accuracy.

Plus AF already has a cap on # of mobs it will hit.

[Silenka]

Yes my post was geared towards the many people who are talking about Zantetsuken like it's going to work in AB. Although we don't know the amount of accuracy down vs mob total, I think it's safe to say that it's not going to be a viable option for AB.

[Shalafi]

I think it may turn out to be used as your last pact.

Typically get 3 flow pacts off, now will be avatar of choice for first two, clearing a lot of mobs, and last one being Zantetsuken for clean up; makes for less Thunderspark.

[Gwynplaine]

TBH if there's a required BCNM I expect it to be more fun than actually possessing their ability. Having a BC fight against both Alex/Odin at the same time would be a cool gimmick but not bloody likely.

Someone should test how well Zantetsuken will clear out the Darter group in Dragon's Aery after the update.

Hahahahaha.

Am I the only one more excited about what gear possibilities we might be able to get as rewards for the supposed Alex/Odin BC's other than avatar use?

[Freazer]

Spoiler: show

do any of the idiots going on about odin in summon burn really think SE is going to leave it functional? summon burning in general will be gone before cap goes up, much less odin making it uber

Didn't even think of that, I'm curious aswell!

Nice speculation there....

Zantetsuken, the new Ruinous Omen.

[Hanyoko]

lvl 75 smn in west ronf. rounds up 30-40 level 10 or lower mobs and uses Zantetsuken. I bet some will survive

[Priran]

Zantetsuken, the new Ruinous Omen.

[Kairos]

I'm actually hoping the two missing attachments for puppetmaster will be in the reward list for repeating these fights. 1 dark from Odin, and 1 light from Alexander.

salvage bans say hi

I don't understand why Summoners are happy about this since Alex / Odin are only usable once every 2 hours. Sure, it's a nice new toy for Summoner, but how is it going to help them find parties or stop the "Sub WHM/SCH and Heal" mentality that exists on the road to 75? (with the exception of SMN Burns) It's a one trick pony that changes the way SMN is played for 3 minutes then it's back to your old style for the next hour and 55 minutes.
