FFXIV - Eden's Verse: Refulgence (Savage) Guide - PART TWO

[@Fain255]

E4S looks like a fun EX Trial compared to this

[@lynameep223]

There is stuff missing here that might be an issue for groups. Akh Morn Debuffs are based on aggro and CAN swap during the casting of akh morn if your tanks swap aggro. This issue might arise during the final stretch of the fight if you're invulning 2 Morn Afahs. The Stack/spread during icelit dragonsong does tankbuster level damage and has to be mitigated.

[@troubiemakie]

For the first Mirror, Mirror my group uses the mantra "same ass, different face" to find the initial safe spot. If the wing and blue mirror are on the same side go behind her. If the wing and blue mirror are on different sides, you go in front of her.

[@age8878]

Thanks a ton for this, I've been trying to figure out a good mnemonic for that mech because for some reason my brain just can't process the blue mirror fast enough.

[@Natsu_shinryu]

Thanks a lot for this!

[@tianadickerson550]

we have waymarks on intercards 1-NW 2-NE 3-SE 4-SW. Check west mirror. If its blue and she's facing north odd waymarks are safe first. If it's red and facing north even waymarks are safe first. Check where her wings are casting and then you have your safe quadrant. After that you just have to remember that if west is blue you move clockwise if west is red you move counterclockwise. idk if that's too many words but i hope you get what i'm saying

[@bambooxfox]

My group started using this too, and it works great. Thank you!

[@enigman2789]

Also, if shiva is facing north, you can move to the opposite quadrant after the first hallowed, if she's facing south, go to the opposite quadrant after the second hallowed, no need to rotate cw/ccw..

LMAO

[@Maax141]

Stardiver animation :D

Star diver is a hell of a drug

[@nastypanda92]

13:04 that confiteor after the slide was perfect!

[@Axel5550]

Thanks a ton for the guide! I have one suggestion for future guides, as well: marking video segment times for mechanics, so people can jump to specific parts. I hope you're staying safe and have a good day!

[@VampireNoblesse]

best explanation for the wyrm heads (red & blue timers) in a guide atm imo (head spawn postions)

[@Eiddew]

y'know what i'm going to stick to EX content

[@bigtimetimmyjim6486]

Wow, a fight that is difficult, but seems very fair at the same time. I cannot wait!

[@Valerkos93]

How the hell is that fair? You must remember a TON of mechanics that happens really quick. I wan't even try to do it with PF

[@Antipyroleo]

Reflected Shining Armor doesn’t feel very fair tbh

[@SergioSource]

@@Valerkos93 git gud

[@Valerkos93]

@@SergioSource I doubt it's possible with pugs. You can be good, but there will be someone who ruin whole fight

[@SergioSource]

@@Valerkos93 It goes without saying that bad players will cause wipes. Making savage content expecting people to be competent is more than fair. 5% of all Mana players that have ever been in a lv80 parse for any content have cleared TEA. There's no excuse, kick baddies and blacklist those that refuse to improve.

[@onadaTotihotiH]

So, finally got through Icelit, one thing that I don't think that was readily apparent just from watching at a glance is just HOW MUCH DAMAGE the tanks take there! Like, Christ, I see Sentinel, Sheltron, Sacred Soil, and Shield Samba, 4 different mitigations and she still takes >120k damage. Meanwhile I get there for the first time thinking I got it and I took 213k to the face.

[@daedelous7094]

Good god this fight makes Neo Ex-Death look REASONABLE.

[@nyaggardly]

and this is still much, much easier than the easiest ultimate which is UCOB

[@kunstlerischesetwas1284]

@@nyaggardly i was thinking UwU is the easiest one? :P

[@CDPW]

Ultimates can't be unsynced I assume

[@Knightsmaren]

WOW! After watching I'm wondering who was the Galaxy Brain sadist at SE that came up with this? It's gonna take months for PF to remember all of this and they were still forgetting stuff for Titan.

[@roxxor3]

just watch a guide for ultimate fights like TEA . i think savage is "easy" to develop for them :D

[@Rataldo20]

its not even an ultimate calm down xdd. and pf is doing pretty normal. titan was extremely easy compared to the last fights of past tiers like for example kefka and omega were a real PAIN in PF and this fight is just been what it should be. the last fight of a raid tier so its pretty much okay.

[@Knightsmaren]

@@Rataldo20 Okay, I didn't know. Titan was my first Savage b/c I started playing XIV with Shadowbringers.

[@Neos4500]

And I once thought O12S was complicated

[@Its_an_Eze]

Hello World? Have you met icelift? 😂

[@FNLNFNLN]

O12S is crazy difficult to understand, middling to hard to learn, depending on class, but fairly easy to execute once you understand it. This all looks easy enough to understand, but hard to learn and execute.

[@justaman4887]

Yoshi p had a lot of fun with this one

[@zerin4244]

I never realized how janky stardiver animation looks without the effects

[@nicholasblontrock7036]

lol I thought for a sec that that was a glitch

[@KenotheWolf]

Me:* Watched my bfs Static for 5 Hours* I think I get most of the Mechanics! Part 1: Ok understand everything! Part 2: *Brainlag till end of the Video* My god, who made this Fight so... Savage and long??

[@Whitelightning109101]

light rampant is going to kill every single pf

[@yabiyabi]

but that's the easy part...

[@NateTheGreat101-c7l]

処音やぶ no its not. It was already proven and declared the hardest part of the fight. The rest is a lot easier

[@ScytheOfMadness]

Thank you for keeping it clean and simple. The other guides are so slow and had to follow

[@YugnarYT]

Thanks so much for doing these as always :3

[@bulletzzz3]

This fights crazy

[@Sammysnows]

ME: Errrr HUH !!!!!!!! Yoshi P: Say it.

[@ClydeJHatbird]

I wanted to try this for a glamor piece...meaning I'd need to succeed at it 8 times. Watching these guides gave me an anxiety attack from the thought of being unable to memorize these mechanics, failing repeatedly, and then having 7 other people screaming at me. I can not do this this, any of it. Forget it, I'll just stick with the undyeable version.

[@RequiemGamingLikeR]

Well this looks like black mage hell.

[@rukrawczyk]

BLMs are gonna get VERY intimate with their TC and SC buttons(and likely using xeno for the movement, instead of the damage)

[@Panos_1821]

Well magical and physical ranged are doing just fine.melee on the other hand seems like half the fight wont hit the boss

[@ZergRaines]

I’m sorry, the final akh morn hits HoW MaNy TiMeS?

[@johnlawrence4592]

1:06 So, let me see if I can get the green/blue debuff thing straight. #1 tank gets the blue debuff, #2 gets green. So, the raid simply splits evenly. Do those groups stay for the rest of the fight? I was kinda lost how, later in the fight, you get the green/blue debuffs again. Would be kind of ridiculous for you to immediately determine what color you have and race to the right group.

[@orionibtk3037]

The groups are made for consistency. Really just pretend the debuff doesn't exist, there's no swapping to get hit by the other color or anything. Just be sure you're tightly stacked and don't move during any of the akh morns, or you will wipe.

[@Dynme]

@@orionibtk3037 Well, as other comments point out, it can be an issue if your tank provokes during Akh Morn. It's basically an instant wipe.

[@johnlawrence4592]

@@orionibtk3037 I'm assuming the groups are stacked the same way they were for the platform part, right?

[@orionibtk3037]

@@Dynme Both tanks should be sure they have top aggro immediately after the transition. I didn't think it would have to be said that they shouldn't use provoke while the groups are getting blasted lol

[@orionibtk3037]

@@johnlawrence4592 Guessing by platform part you mean the add phase right? If so, yes just to make things simple on the whole group.

[@SeniorSuiki]

Can anyone label the parts of the fight with abbreviated lingo spoken by the community?

[@Orcasgt22]

PF standard strat for this fight is not MIzzteqs method from this video. There's no way to label any part of this guide with how PF does it. Like she says, strategies change over time.

[@gmichielon]

You guys didn't make it right? LoL

[@hamadalketbi6521]

so many things to memorize .... frustrating.... its a test of my memory not my gaming skill. thats why I take breaks from the game sometimes. super annoying
