Summoners have for a long time suspected that pacts could be formed with Atomos, Alexander, and Odin in order to summon their spirits in order to assist in battles. But the pacts had been lost to time and the ravages of the Crystal War. With new technologies allowing summoners to travel back in time, these pacts have now been discovered. Obtaining such pacts is not for the feint of heart, but the rewards will be worthwhile for those strong enough to succeed. They didn't explicitly say "hey look new avatars" but if you ask me, this pretty close to an actual confirmation.

Or if you noticed, this isn't on the POL website and was part of an April Fool's Day joke.....

That'd be a beyond low blow to SMNs.
EDIT: *sigh* You're right. I was wondering why this wasn't on FFXIAH news.

The lack of creativity is pretty disappointing, to be honest. All three of those already exist, which just tells everyone it's an April Fools joke. Some new avatars that don't have previous ingame associations would've been much more believable!

Not enough elogance, however.

Lol Failed! I read that update and what gave it away was "Users who preordered at 9.99 will be billed an additional 15.00." Hahahahahaha No. Nice try Square. Blizzard and Sony Online Entertainment, however, would pull a stunt like that.

This is exactly why I don't do April Fool's *sigh*
EDIT: Bahamut in the series has always been superior to Odin. I could see Odin happening but they explicitly said Bahamut never will.

I can recall during the Fanfest interviews SE development team said "We dont plan on makeing Odin and Bahamut avatars because we like them as bosses.(badguys)"

I could see Odin happening but they explicitly said Bahamut never will. yea but thats cause bahamut is part of the mission story line. but odin is part of einherjar which is like a mission lol but doesnt mean that they would give us odin. There's alot of avatars that would be cool to have over storyline/battle avatars

It should say "faint of heart," not "feint of heart."
