I'm pretty sure that summoning a primal with the intention of summoning the same primal as has appeared before will get the same primal. This is also why you can't have two Titans walking around simultaneously.
Yeah, my understanding is that in the aetherial plane there are singular consciousnesses that are attached to each primal. That thing might not call itself Titan or whoever when its just energy though, its the Kobold summoner that shapes it into the form they expect their god to take, and they shape its mind also. But they're calling out to the same being every time they summon a new Titan.

The Namazu are awful, but at least they aren't moogles.

At least the Moogles were doing something constructive even if they were pranksters (and their prerequisite quests were nowhere near as annoying as that one Dravanian Forelands aethercurrent quest that used to have you travel back and forth around that dang NW hill like, 7 times in a row.)

Namazu are making a festival to get themselves out of trouble that they themselves cause and they somehow managed to rope me into it with the promise of new silly frou-frou stuff (which is admittedly the best reason) and easy crystals.

There are only two things I hate:

Getting 0 Comms when I practically carry a dungeon group through the content on whatever class I play,
That Aethercurrent Quest chain I mentioned,
And getting outrolled on stuff in a 98/99 or 1/2 situation.

"Go on until you're stopped."
I think there’s a kind of template established for every primal ever summoned, and this template, combined with a safe energy source instead of crystals and ambient aether, is what lets you summon an egi.

It doesn't even have to be a corpse. We saw the one sahagin just bodyjack a different sahagin outright in Leviathan.

So what you're saying is we just need to intentionally summon a primal and have it eat Elf Zenos for us.

On second thought, that seems like it would probably have Unintended Consequences so let's not do that.

Also what the gently caress is going on with the namazu haters around here. You're supposed to enjoy bullying catfishmen, not hate them. They even give you the catgirl racial necklace for becoming bloodsworn.

Given he's already shown the ability to bodyjack primals, I don't think that's an option for murdering him.

Someone in my FC has been farming SC since patch day for the caster top without success. I kinda wish we had some token system for dungeon drops, as I want the Skalla healer set but I don't want to farm the dungeon a hundred times to get it.

This is my sitch with the tank chest from Baelsar's Wall. I've essentially given up ever owning it. I've seen the dog drop more often than that coat. I saw it once, when I got it as a 50/60 dungeon on a DPS class and I lost the roll. Meantime, I've won two dogs and lost a third.

I made this experience back in 2.something (the one with hardflox in EXDR) - I was running those dungeons for weeks to finish the monk set and never got the last pieces. Since then I stopped caring about the dungeon gear completely - I run it for tomes or XP or whatever and it's nice if I get some of the drops, but I know I'm not gonna be there long enough to get the things and farming is not worth it. Without a token system or any other sort of RNG protection (like the leveling dungeons got except for weapons for whatever dumb reason), you can farm a dungeon for months and not get the items you're looking for.

At least you get GC seals for more animes out of it.

Well you see RDM are support and only supposed to cast verraise.
Healers are only supposed to cast heals and you can't heal dead bodies so raise is illegal.

They were my co-healer (a SCH), while I was an AST, which makes everything about it even more puzzling.

I know this is a beginner question but I didn't see it in the OP. I just hit 30 on MRD and finished the quest for warrior. It looks like I'm still a marauder though. Do I need to switch class to warrior? And if so, how?

You can equip your job crystal from your armory. Just open up your character menu and click the open slot on the bottom of the right side of your list of gear.

Make sure you save your gear set with the job stone equipped, or the next time you do job fuckery, you won't have it. Which is bad, because there is no good reason to not have your job stone equipped now.

Equipping your job stone will also make your hotbars poo poo themselves, since the game sees it as a new class, so take a screenshot of what you have or write it down or something so you can get your Warrior bar back into shape. If you take off the job stone, you'll revert to Marauder and can see the original bars.
