FINAL FANTASY XIV Trial Battle: VS Warrior of Light (Elidibus)

[@Luxai]

The part I will love about this fight forever is how even in normal mode, you need a full tank LB3 to survive his LB4. He's throwing everything at you. You must respond in kind, or die.

[@whodis3489]

That happens in Alexander as well though.

To me warriors of light, I am Salvation given form, Mankind's first hero and its final hope, For victory I render up my all :)

Goosebumps everytime I hear it, sometimes I even slighty tear up. I've never been affected by a game like this ever before, not even close.

Hardest line in xiv no contest. Everything about this fight is absolute perfection, I cannot ever imagine a better one.

Emet's appearance in this fight IMMEDIATELY made me cry. I've only done this trial once, and that was the first time. Which was weeks ago. I'm still feeling it.

[@Senriam]

How do you feel about it now after playing endwalker?

[@maxharris4722]

@@Senriam Just as emotional as I did the first time I played it. Probably even moreso. I've done this trial quite a few times since I made this comment. Emet-Selch is my favorite character by far. Next to G'raha Tia, of course.

I did this trial the first time today and holy hell this was an amazing trial.

I got to blow the dust off my LB button! 600 hours in and this is the first time I pressed it 👴

Did you play during heavensward? The A12 fight requires tank lb3

I literally screamed when i realized that is it emet with his hand movement. This figth was so good.

[@Lord_Sunday]

So is elidibus stealing dynamis from the summoned warriors of light? Or is he just mimicking the power with aether?

[@kofrugal98bernstein76]

If you gotten up to this be prepared for a little spoiler elidibus became the heart of zodiarc effectively making him into a primal but with well the first primal to have ever have ever been born and since zodiarc was a means for salvation for the ascians elidibus just took form that he deemed worthy of a hero's hero the first warrior of light and through shear magical prowess summoned the rest of the gang to use their magics cuz ascians are no fucking slouch when it comes to magical prowess.

[@sovest555]

Probably his intent was to channel aether from them, but given the circumstances, he actually receives dynamis instead. Because do remember that to the untrained eye, they are usually seen as one and the same, especially when flaring up like with an LB.

[@aznereth3767]

@@sovest555 Probably since he delibetarily invokes 'hope' - he actually intended to use dynamis, even without fully knowing its properties

[@justinchampagne1729]

I don’t think Elidibus would bother trying to use dynamis, if he even knew it existed in the first place. During the time of the ancients, Hermes was the only one who really knew anything about dynamis (Not even Emet knew about it). And from what we know, it’s incredibly difficult for aether-rich souls to manipulate dynamis, hence why I don’t think he’d attempt using it even if he did know about it.

[@acgearsandarms1343]

Up for debate since he is both Unsundered and a primal. He’s aetherically dense and Ancients supposedly cannot use Dynamis due to their aetheric density. And Limit Breaks still rely on aether regardless. So again, up for debate.

I squealed so hard when i heard the amaurot theme and when i saw the shade snap it's fingers AND DO THE WAVE AAAHHH

They aren't wrong though, To The Edge uses the same melody as Neath Dark Waters and Mortal Instants

Elidibus was right.

[@kingjoker8399]

He looks exactly like the main character of ff1

[@Shadowtron1221]

That's the point. He has taken the form of the first 'Warrior of Light'.

@@Shadowtron1221 Looking at that made my heart Ache TT ^ TT specially because he took on the form of my boi WoL,that it felt like putting down the 1st WoL!... TT ^ TT though if the real WoL was there i think he would tell "Elidibus" how wrong he was. TT v TT

[@DanielBernal-en4ms]

Spoiler___________________ . . . Does this mean Elidibus learned how to use Dynamis? He went further since he has a level 4.

[@jemm113]

I imagine it was thanks to the prayers of the heroes he channeled, rather than solely his own power
