The group I often interact with is theorizing that the new Elder might be the non-mutated version of Xeno's species mentioned in-game (IIRC, the Xeno'jiiva encountered mutated due to feeding on bioenergy), so if that's the case, I'm kind of already a fan of this new Elder Dragon.

Other then that, Stygian Zinogre... yaaa.... Stygian has never really been an enjoyable fight for me since the fight becomes exponentially more difficult if you're using an Elemental weapon.
