[@huntsmanfrank1279]

when you realize the boss actually hits the 2 highest in aggro so one dps keeps getting erased over time

[@Kalanin399]

iirc in norm it hits the 2 tanks regardless, so as long as both tanks live, which is the same for most bosses that hit 2 players (Shinryu, Panda 3, for example). Savage it's the top 2 aggro

[@チェリー-x5o]

@@Kalanin399 then why did I got screamed at for not provoking?????(I was ot and mt was the one screaming) 😭

[@Wxlfee]

@@チェリー-x5o Pretty sure it's top two aggro for normal as well, as I've managed to take aggro from a few OTs who haven't got stance enabled and started getting attacked.

[@Kalanin399]

@@Wxlfee It definitely is just the two tank roles and then aggro from there. Outside this video there's a few videos of other players reactions and you can clearly see the OT getting autoed while being 4th,5th or even 7th on the aggro list due to deaths. That experience matches up with what i've normally experienced where i've been 2nd on aggro and never gotten autoed by the boss as well. p3 is exactly the same way. It'd be nice to see it be top 2 aggro imho, but square seems averse to putting that in anything that's not savage or higher.

[@tylerdotapp]

@@Kalanin399 it’s not. it’s Emnity 1 and Emnity 2; i have died to autos as emnity 2 as a DPS whilst both tanks are up

[@chinhthehugger9284]

my first time doing the keeper of the lake, during the last fight with big papa dragon the healer and the other dps died at around 60% health I managed to last until 40% health then I watched as the tank clutched the rest of fight, with many close calls it was beautiful

[@megamariostriker]

Seeing things like this are exactly why I love PLD.

[@nekrovx]

So the same thing that WAR and GNB can do but do less dmg

[@SPIREDOCKLATERRA]

@@nekrovx Yes, exactly, meaning that this PLDs clutch is cooler than if a WAR or GNB did it.

[@taekn437]

As a PLD that frequently is the last one standing in my static, this makes me happy that you got to shine here. Good job and great clutch!

[@MythrilZenith]

if I had a nickel for every time I had to PLD solo the final boss of The Dead Ends I'd have 15 cents, which isn't a lot but it's also not surprising it happened that many times considering how many healers come into that dungeon not prepared for an actual fight.

[@3lit3gn0m3]

Whoa, that's some unlucky groups there. Makes me glad to have only died on my healer once to that fight iirc (unavoidable wipes aside.)

[@kyrxon277]

That means you've only had to solo the last boss 3 times. You'd have more 'money' if you had a nickel for every time you had to solo the first boss

[@nev2221]

I am flabbergasted by your sheer audacity to click the ability hotkeyed to Q.

[@Rhea_is_gay]

Look if your gonna clutch your brain isn’t really focused on wether or not you should click, ya just kinda do.

[@ProxyXIV]

@@Rhea_is_gay "clutch" is knowing what you have to do, and executing it well. This is just panic.

I started playing this game almost 3 months ago now and have only been dps or healer, but this video inspired me to start being a paladin and now I’m currently getting my first relic weapon for it

[@telenNG]

I've seen warriors do this kind of shit way more often but as a paladin main I can say when you do it as a paladin it feels so much better welcome to the badass club

[@darkjackl999]

My friend is a War main and yeah, we've seen him solo bosses from ~40% several times in dungeons We believe in fel cleave supremacy

[@colinkwasnik]

This is elevated by the fact that youre a clicker the panic set in was very apparent LOL

[@AB-sp5hm]

I like how the dead players have so many opinions on what the paladin should do next 😂

[@shadoowrules]

Yoooo that was so clutch lol Nice job!

[@anonymoususer69420]

Very nice clutch, making us Pally mains proud❤

[@CheezVT]

That's my friend! Also, I'm the WAR (C'amatista Brillar) that was the first domino to fall which led to this beautiful moment.

[@jolenejames]

I had to deal with the last 5% on this boss on PLD because everyone got blasted by the knockback mechanic. The most excited but scared I’ve ever been to not die lol. 🤣

[@amybrissenden2178]

not 100% sure why this came up on my homepage as i don't really watch FFXIV stuff on my KZbin but this was amazing and gave me a big smile and cheered me up. You're a badass and the fact you don't tank main?!?! I can't even....

[@KamakiH]

I've had many a moment where my moment to come in clutch was but inches away from me, but I'm glad to see other Pally's keeping the dream alive.

[@Nimoot]

"Use all your cooldowns! Use Cover!" .... Someone doesn't know how to play Paladin.

[@sybrr_wavez]

That backseating would have been the death of me. I could hear it already. "WILL YOU SHUT THE FUCK UP?! I GOT THIS!"

[@Koutouhara]

These kinds of fights are so memorable! I remember doing the mannoroth fight in wow, which is like a 25-man 4 phase raid boss - and it came down to the last 2 pallies for the last like 15 or so percent and everyone just screaming support in chat as they were healing and switching off-tank - then in the last few percent one of the pallies died leaving the last one to finish it. I was so excited and on the edge of my seat seeing that kill happen! I leapt up and my chair toppled over from me being so into that fight XD But yeah will never forget that ever! Those are the gaming moments in any game that are amazing to be there to witness!

[@hartantoanggoro]

I guess the lines should put here huh "I AM SALVATION GIVEN FORM!!! MANKIND FIRST HERO AND HIS FINAL HOPE!!!! FOR VICTORY I WILL RENDER IN MY ALL!!!!" That PLD just become the real warrior of light.

yo as a main tank here, this feel soooo great haha. Good job bro!

[@Hawwwlucha]

This satisfies my pld main heart

[@titaniumvulpes]

Quite a while back my partner (WAR) and I (PLD) were in an Emerald Weapon where everyone else died going into phase 2. We just kept going but they whined about it and made us wipe. We were so minged about it that a couple months ago we decided to do Emerald Weapon undersize min ilvl. Took us like 40 minutes but we did it! Wish we could find a group of people to support our shenanigans like you do 😂

[@nightstrider15]

I love these moments as a tank. I had one of these recently

[@Infinity_FF14VRC]

Paladin is a Tier 0 job This reminds me when one time I went The Dead Ends, healer died at at the first attack of the first boss. And with power of Clemency, the rest of us just survived.

As a wise man said in 300, "Come back with your shield or on your shield". 🛡 message for all my paladin Brethren.

[@cristiancortez8349]

Everyone is giving the paladin praise but I can't understand why. He clicks half of his abilities instead of using keybinds assigned, clemency himself over the bard lol and doesnt mitgate with sheltron. This was sheer panic and not good play xD.

[@bdogasdf]

This type of stuff happened for me a lot when endwalker released and it felt so good to clutch solo the boss fights, only one I couldn’t do was zodiark cause I panicked during the stack mechanic and forgot to lb3

This is why i call paladins the best tank job

[@SephWise]

Love how it's the people that are DEAD that are telling the one person left alive how to do the fight. :^)

[@Pompadourius]

Being dead doesn't mean they necessarily know less. If their job doesn't have any decent sustain beyond things like second wind and bloodbath, they're going to fall once the healers die, especially with a PLD that doesn't remember where clemency is. Especially once there's only one tank alive, meaning one extra person's dead guaranteed any time the dual tankbuster comes out.

[@Mouse-go3gc]

Plus the paladin doesn't normally tank, they probably wanted the help. Their voice wasn't recorded, so they could have been asking.

[@2000Loganjames]

PLD mains rise up, we know we can't die

[@Ashnekoaiii]

Ahhh yes, we love to see it 👏🏻 👏🏻 🙏🏻

[@jacobteague635]

That was awesome, but clearly they were alive because they know the fight. The people screaming what to do would have caused me to purposely fail

The amount of backseating is absolutely absurd, how do you tolerate everyone shouting "HALLOWED GROUND HALLOWED GROUND!" (when its on cooldown) I would lose my mind.

[@ninjagamer1374]

that's why o love PLD

[@moccxhi]

i had this happen a lot week one when i was spamming these to get used to the mechanics in preparation for savage x) it was pretty funny

[@strider0788]

This reminds me of what happened during the dungeon at the end of ew msq where our healer afked and me as the paladin said fk it and I healed and tanked for the final boss. Given, at one point I had to let a dps die to keep at least one of them alive but we did complete it! Healer came back when boss was at 25% or something like that lol

[@blakehubbard757]

Gamers Yeah I'm a healer/melee main Great job friend

[@kk28262484]

Why range LB3 though...

[@kairitrioncerulean8502]

Reminds me of a time i duo'd p2n with another tank cause it was faster than trying to clear with the party. Got p2n in normal raid roullete with a tank friend. I was a gunbreaker and my friend was on warrior, 6 of the people with us were new so i asked if they wanted tips, but my friend pulled ahead as soon as the cutscene was over. I juggled typing advjce with doing my off tank duties but unfortunately the sprouts were dropping left and right despite my advice, mainly due to cleaving each other or getting beaned by the cataracts. We wiped 3 times and thats shwn my friend started throwing a tantrum, this boss has no positionals or tank cleaves, so he started spinning the boss in circles. Even tho this was "technically" harmless and did not effect dps(again no positionals) it annoyed the healers and melee dps. Again we proceeded to die, except this time some were blaming my friend for causing unecessary panic with spinning the boss. I stayed quiet as on one hand i agreed the spinning boss was causing unecessary panic, on the other hand i didn't want to piss off my friend. We pulled again and again, wiped, this time tho i told everyone to stop pulling and listen to my advice, but right in the middle of my explanation, my friend said f this shit and left. I was briefly torn between following him or staying behind as my duty as a good mentor. I decided that these people needed my help more and stayed. I crash coursed them on mechanics while we waited for a new tank, i even placed some markers for spread locations so they wouldn't have to run around confused. Then we got a warrior replacement and pulled. Things went well this time, there were less deaths than before, however it was at 60% hp thta things went south, as bot healers got hit by the chasing aoe. While some dps panicked and ran into the danger puddles. We were back to square 1 as we only had both tanks and 1 barely alive dps left. I decided that after multiple wipes me and the warrior could handle this instead of wiping the party again, and watching us both do mechanics will be a good learning opportunity. Unfortunately we couldn't keep the lone dps alive as we proceeded to duo the boss. I shirked my aggro to the warrior so i could offtank as i knew they had a better chance of surviving with all their healing abilities while i only had aurora. I used aurora on cooldown both to heal myself and the warriorn while the warrior healed me in turn. We were lucky the p2n boss did not have many heavy hitting attacks or tankbusters. We used limit breaks and invuln to solo some tankbusters and stacks as taking them together would just mean unecessary damage. While we slowly drained the boss of his hp the dead were flabbergasted that this was actually working, but it was taking a really long time to whittle the health as our dps wasn't exactly high(and i panic drifted my cooldowns). Some people even decided to do chores or buy groceries while they waited for us to kill the boss. Then after a grueling 30 ish minutes and 3 tank limit breaks we killed the boss. Everyone cheered and we took a group picture of the clear like it was a first savage clear or something 😗. I was mostly happy it was over tho as my blood pressure and adrenaline had peaked during the fight to the point i was actually trembling irl.
