Wan · Post by **Wan** » Tue Jan 02, 2007 4:27 pm

Im surpirsed we dont have a topic like this. Still this thread is about summoning in general. To start off, what is everyones favorite summon?

And how does that creature/mech work in battle?

Me, its gotta be Chaos. For one reason alone...

I think so... I haven't played FFVIII forever... o.o (letting a friend borrow it) I just remember it was the last and most powerful summon ('cept Odin, which I think cast death on all enemies).

Gilgamesh, best fanservice summon ever!

Honestly I never really 'loved' summons until I could actually control them in FFX... one thing before that though...

Doomtrain. Nothing like saying "Shut up and Die" like a steam powered locomotive from hell in the face.

Its becoming a trend (not sure where or why) but the female summons are more and more becoming hookers.

For ex. The Succubus summon in WoW (still I believe they are supposed to be this way without their WoW filterazation)

or Rather Shiva (while this version of her isnt current, you still get the idea)

On another note since this thread is about summoning, would one consider berserking a form of which? Since it brings out (aka summon) another form or deity?

Ex. Dante or Vergil from DMC.

Favorite summons are:

1. Valfore (FFX)
2. Shiva (FFT Advanced)
3. Yojimbo (Sp?) (FFX)

I love Shiva though, mind you. ^^

grr Succubus is so cheap. Locks who dont want to be cheap and actually want a challenge when playing use thier Imp summon.

Lock was fun to be but succubus was so...sucky when I got her. I ended up using my void over my Imp.

I absolutely love the Espers in Final Fantasy XII. they looks so awesome! Mateus, Ultima, Zeromus, Chaos, Exodus, Adramallech, and Zodiark are my favs.

Mine was. Crap I forgot his name. But he was in FFX and one half of him was above ground the other underground. He was like an f'd up butterfly. Heres a pic.

That's the dark aeon, Anima (not to be confused with anime).

Interesting trivia: anima means "soul," so to animate something is to infuse a soul into something.

So true!

Dictionary.com defines Anima as

Dictonary.com wrote:1. soul; life.
2. (in the psychology of C. G. Jung) a. the inner personality that is turned toward the unconscious of the individual (contrasted with persona).
b. the feminine principle, esp. as present in men (contrasted with animus).

I like most of the summons in Tales of Symphonia <3

My favorite one, though, would prolly me The first summon you have in Final Fantasy 8 (I forgot how to spell it T.T) it starts with a Q and its element is thunder XD

Aside from that, I like Shiva.. (yay ice!)

Bahamut (FF9)
Bahamut vs Alexander scene. Enough said.

Madeen (FF9)
Right before you get it, its pretty sad. And Madeen is the strongest summon in FF9

Anima (FF10)
Oblivion can kill anything in the european version. Kickass.

I could go on for a while, but they all would be of the FF series anyways :/ I'm a huge fan of them

Quarze..coulte...

Quetzalcolt. Being mexican is good sometimes
