FFXIV OST Pharos Sirius Hard Theme ( Upon the Rocks )

[@nunyabizniz4556]

I love the first 35 seconds so much.

[@dustinrieber8590]

That hard piano really slaps...

[@jemm113]

@@dustinrieber8590 and those rising strings!

[@truthless4720]

Hi, this is Kitai. Had no idea this footage was being captured by Mekkah at the time. I hope our 3-man premade didn't screw up too much :)

[@oniedahn]

a little late this reply of mine, but i love the fact you were a scholar that used cleric stance instead of just a healer that only heals, props:D

[@xxP0IS0Nheart]

One of my favorite songs in the game. Gives me chills and tears in my eyes. The haunting choir is just...*chef kiss*

[@robertw6167]

Still one of the best tracks in the game!

[@ryanc5572]

Four years into the future, that still rings true.

[@adjwindu70]

Agreed

[@trininomad9293]

8 years later and it still is.

[@Murder_Hornet]

This track is too epic for this dungeon.

[@mintpanda1]

it fits perfectly in fact

[@ignus7106]

Came for the song. Stayed for the walk down MCH memory lane. I don’t miss casted shots -_-

[@Zohar333]

I hated the casted shots. Was BRD main in ARR and switched to SCH in HW when they did that to BRD. At least if I have to stop to press buttons, it might as well be to save someone's life xD

[@jowston100]

Easily the best dungeon theme.

[@srnigromante9214]

Its between this and Amdapor Hard for me

[@jowston100]

Probably the best song in the game.

[@bowenmatson8478]

looking back on this in almost 2020 and reminiscing over Stoneskin lol

[@HarunaEventide]

THEY ADDED IT AS A MUSIC ROLL IN THE RECENT SB PATCH

[@ozmintheobserver]

1:45 just love this.

[@BlancaTsukiai]

I would have enjoyed a whole song in the slow pace of the intro...would have fit better for the instance - either that or a mix maybe with a slow Kobold-Theme - or piano-version of it. However...Pharos still has a nice soundtrack ^^ Never gets old. ...Or maybe in the next patch they change the music to a full fledged piano-verison, like they extended i in 2.3 with the normal Pharos Sirius...!

[@sweepingtime]

Pharos Sirius is always a sad place.

[@SgtChrisCross]

FFXIV best ingame soundtracks in games history!

[@Damesanglante]

The best is still ''Fear not this Night'' by Asja Kadric form Guild Wars 2, but it is an ending song and FFXIV have multiple great songs. Her voice is 11/10.

[@ReadxOnly]

This track is so good It would have been a crime not to have it in HM ^^

[@glenburg89]

This has a very Final Fantasy XIII vibe to it. Great song :)

[@0shawhat]

What songs do you recommend from FF13 that has this same kind of vibe? Would love to give a listen!

[@GreyMASTA]

Wow this theme is Sad. Perplexing. Haunting. Epic... This place is so Intriguing!! 2 minutes later: *Gets jumped by BE GU the pimped up Kobold.*

[@7DriDri7]

i love the intro

[@behema9713]

to this day, still goes fuckin hard. id expect this kinda track to play during a super important badass msq cutscene, but damn.

[@zkng]

well the intermission is different as well. the subtle changes are quite alluring.

[@AleXwern]

Expert roulette please give me this dungeon even once. I like the other dungeon too but goddammit.

[@Dazuro]

+AleXwern Meanwhile I've only gotten the Arboretum a single time since release. I liked Pharos plenty but goddamn I'm sick of it. Silly RNG.

[@YuzawaUri]

(A Light in the Storm plays from another room.)

[@empyreal84]

Omg that movement, do you have an ultra gamer PC??? *0*

[@ElliotMuse]

This song is perfect, it fits Pharos Sirius (Normal), but not Pharos Sirius (Hard) imo.

[@MekkahDee]

+Ienzo Yeah, I always envision the vocals sung by the Siren, which doesn't make much sense when she's not here anymore.

[@prismsage3957]

Yea if it had kept piano without singing it would be like a rest in piece to the siren who doesnt sing no more. It would of gave it a little more meaning .

[@hennyzhi2261]

I wish I could have this playing while mounting up on a certain mount.

[@KooriGraywolf]

Man, look at that machinist CASTING

[@sirensoulegaming4158]

Yes! Back in the days of Heavensward, Ranged dps gained stances that turned them into "physical mages", where they did more damage but skills had cast times. The nostalgia is real.

[@Judah_Katzenberger]

Good thing this is FF14 and not WoW. Telling people it's your first time in a dungeon in WoW gets you the boot.

[@retrorider-NYC]

Goosebumps

[@genjixi7589]

The nostalgia is real yall

[@MisterMeowstic]

Can someone just make a full piano arrangement of this because idgaf about anything past the first 35 seconds. That somber melody at the start is just perfect.

[@aqj2014]

well at least its not full of morbols

[@VisionoftheChief]

Dragonsword Gaming THAT'S RACIST

[@weiss4855]

"Hey. I heard you like debuffs... what's your favourite? Mines ALL OF THEM." - Fucking Morbols.

[@0shawhat]

Still salty we haven't gotten an extended version of the piano part ;;

[@zinogrex]

I agree. A piano cover would be amazing.

[@miranerdgasm8480]

I actually preffer this over Antitower, but not the Arboretum fuck those bees!

[@WarfullSwan]

What happened to the previous 30ish min track of this?

[@the.arthur]

Wheres the boss musics? The one before you face the last boss of the dungeon.

[@Soveia]

Should be "Upon the Rocks" in the OST.

[@Delicashilous]

Ridorana Ktarakt FF12

[@jagannath1sharma394]

Nice

[@Zohar333]

OMG I miss Shadow Flare as a SCH so bad.

[@crux1e]

imagine cast split shot and waste on it precious TP kekw

[@Chronos94]

It's not the exact same track. The normal one has some strange violin and some parts a different.

[@Rc3651]

+Chronos94 I dunno, I just played them side by side and I didn't notice a difference.

[@Chronos94]

+Rc3651 The normal version (A Light in the Storm) has 4 part : the beginning, the smooth part, the smooth + violin part, transition and then back to smooth. This version has : the beginning (piano), then the smooth, then the transition and then back to smooth.

[@VanilluxePavilion]

+Mekkah Dee What's the head gear you have on with the horns? Thanks for the upload btw :)

[@MekkahDee]

Succubus horns, you can get them for MGP at the Gold Saucer!

[@VanilluxePavilion]

+Mekkah Dee ooh ok thanks!

[@NaiblistheCurious1]

Yep, Succubus Horns are nice. You can also get claw nails from the Gold Saucer.

[@demeanoris]

why do you need to cast your ATKs your a MCH? is that an effect of Gauss Barrel?

[@PervertedNovaxc3]

+Zack Marcus Yep. Once you get past 50 you unlock it. The tradeoff is that your attacks are stronger, but all have a cast time.

[@demeanoris]

+PervertedNovaxc3 thx

[@PervertedNovaxc3]

Zack Marcus Oh I forgot to mention, there are also some attacks that can only be used when Gauss Barrel is active.

[@orrthehunter]

+Zack Marcus Majority of MCH attacks are instant cast with GB on anyways so the only skills that should have cast time is split shot, Hot shot, and Lead Shot. Other skills of MCH will remain instant cast since Slug shot and Clean Shot are instant cast when used in combo.

[@kapsi]

bom bom

[@MysticChrono]

oh god...protect xD

[@Zohar333]

Salty tanks if you didn't swiftcast stoneskin for every mob. "YOU'RE IN CLERIC!"

[@Aliesgrise]

God i love this

[@Axaelyn]

Ohh, nice typo in the title of the video ;3

[@MekkahDee]

+MetalGuide Shit, my bad.

[@Axaelyn]

Mekkah Dee Haha don't worry ^^

[@toksanmemoria]

I haven't gotten here yet but I keep hearing this in PotD, and it's one of those that i really feel doesn't fit as much. not as weird-feeling as the fate theme, though!

[@MekkahDee]

Yeah, it reflects Pharos Sirius so well that hearing it in POTD, an entirely different setting is a little jarring.

[@jbizzle4922]

Mekka deez nuts

[@jbizzle4922]

Bro where's M'dath's money?

[@Unnickcomealtri]

First the shitty Alexander music, then the shitty Void Ark music, then the shitty Arboretum music... The intro to this dungeon is astonishingly beautifull, but they couldn't be arsed to make a full version of it with piano and strings. You can tell this game is gonna die out soon, since the developer's passion is gone with the expansion. The pre-expansion towers had amazing musics that would have 2 different arrangements, one for when in combat and one for when out of it. The coils had amazing STs too. Now we just have a shitty 70 man farmfest with no purpose, skill or fun involved, just to waste our time. This game is fucking trash now, gg SE.

[@Chronometry707]

+Unnickcomealtri Come now, do not act so. A smile better fits a hero's face.

[@calissaloricchio8663]

+Das654 ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh T_T

[@RegalitiesFarseer]

+Unnickcomealtri Then unsub and shut the fuck up. /you must have not played Thordan EX

[@RegalitiesFarseer]

Unnickcomealtri Since you were too dense to get it, I was referring to the music in Thordan EX being great, at least the new part. Instead you took it as a knock on your ability. lol. No one cares about what you parse or that you sell clears. Unsub from the "shitty" game and shut the fuck up.

[@SwobyJ]

+Unnickcomealtri As a non-FFXIV player, I'm envious of this game for its soundtrack...including these newer tracks. Love almost all of it.
