    It's weird. If I didn't know better I'd swear she has always been there. It just makes sense to have a wind summon, and I can't think of a better candidate than Garuda. Add to that the strong showing in FFXIV, and I'm not even surprised FFXVI just takes it for granted.

    Typhon definitely has more history as an enemy than as a summon. The only mainline game where you can summon him, wind isn't even one of his elements! But it isn't that hard to be the most recurring wind summon, because most games that have one make up their own. Sure, Fenrir was a recurring summon when it showed up in IX, but that was the only time it was a wind summon, and part-time at that, and Chaos was a recurring character when it appeared as XII's wind summon, but no one was going to take from a set of references to past final bosses to become a standard summon. Pandemona is notable for never havig been anything _other_ than a wind summon, but Pandemona also just never reappeared outside of mobile games, and the closest it came to anything else was being cut from Type-0.

    Pandaemonium being recurring wouldn't work because Pandaemonium is also a recurring area in FF games and it'd weird to have them both coexist together since a wind elemental has little to do with the prison-like dark themed pandaemonium in all games its featured in. People that haven't played FF8 prob dont even know the summon version exists. Garuda is more prominent throughout the franchise compared to those. Plus being a bird helps. The name Garuda being from hindu like other mainstay summons such as Shiva also helps.

    What the Garuda in FFVII is holding is not so much a generic rod as it is specifically a Tibetan Vajra Club. Which aligns with the idea that they are meant to be thunder-deitys. Kind of a cool easy-to-miss element that they added to Garuda's character design in VII.

And I suppose the Sylphs have been kind of wind-based for a couple games. But Garuda showed up as a summon in FF11 and hasn’t stopped.

    It's my hope that Garuda becomes a mainstay Summon archetype for the franchise from now on. After being a name they could slap on any large avian monster design for most of FF's history, since XI they've worked to give it a strong visual identity and thematic concept which I think is as good as an Ifrit or a Shiva.

She was weak to Ice because in XI Ice beats Wind on the elemental wheel (I always had my suspicions but I never did confirm the Mana devs worked on it - explains a hell of a lot) In fact I always felt 11 was the closest thing to a Mana MMO we'll ever get and now I know why !

    11's Garuda was always a favorite for Summoners at the 75 endgame. Mostly due to her Predator Claws physical bloodpact, more so when her three hits crit, which is more reliable than the other avatar's physical abilities. Fenrir a close second, and Shiva's Rush third, in my experience. Prior to Endwalker's update for summoner, Garuda-Egi great for AoE use. And even then, before removing Egi's as pets and targetable, she would be second to Ifrit egi for dps, while titan-egi was the, tank type. Watching 16 streams so far. They really, zoned in on 14's personality traits, in addition to appearance upgrades, when compared to her evolution from 11 to 14, which to say, those of us whom adorable the bird lady, are well fed.

Or that the researchers there speciallizing in the aetherial sea saw Athenas form, drawing a depiction of her that later the Ixal ancestors saw while giarding the facility that stuck with them. Or... Athena and the Allagans may have made contact at one point. Whether in the aetherial sea, or with what Athena used later in Endwalker.

    FF XOV garuda > All (I also like the one from FF XI, first time she was more human like, less full bird, and the one from FF XV seems OK)

    Other avian summons like Valefor, Quezacoatl, Sylph, Dragon(FFIV), and Diabolos(who was originally going to be added in FFXVI and have it's own Dominant, but sadly was scrapped because of the similarities to Devilman) are no match to Garuda. She went from a lesser boss to sexy bird lady in FFXIV alongside her Dominant Bernadikta in FFXVI, so Garuda definitely had the most outstanding glowup out of many summons(that includes summons such as Ifrit, Shiva, Ramuh, and Phoenix when it comes to FFXVI imo).

    avian doesn't mean winged, it means bird, so i don't know why mist dragon or diabolos are in that list. i am also assuming you mean siren when you say sylph.

    Garuda is pretty cool but she's not my favorite FF bird girl. Also I play Brave Exvius and Garuda unlocking for Global in a month IIRC

    It’d be fun if blue mages could capture and summon enemies instead of just learning their abilities. Like “capture Marlboro” “summon Marlboro” “Marlboro uses bad breath” etc.

    Garuda eventually turned into GaruDAMN by FFXVI 🥵 Kidding, it's still amazing to see how Square evolves the various creatures from their original lore.

    So Garuda started as male in FF3 just like the Myths? but then became a Waifu in later games 😂

    The weapon Garuda is holding in FF7 is the Vajra. Also relevant to Hinduism and represents lightning. Hence the use of lightning as one of it's attacks.
