[@SamsonGrey26]

Great raid! What did everyone think? Apologies for the terrible pronunciations, the names in this guide were my ultimate!

[@mightyjoeyoungish]

Usually an MTQ viewer, but these videos are BAM BAM BAM done. Save a lot of time while getting what I need. These are my go-to guides now.

[@SamsonGrey26]

Love it thanks! Tho I like to think of the videos as PEW PEW PEW! Ha 😄

[@mstikwondr]

The last boss is every mechanic from the first 2 Endwalker Alliance Raids but all at once with some new things sprinkled on top. I really enjoyed that one. I went in blind. Wish I had waited for your guide first, might have prevented my 2 deaths. You make it sound so easy. Thanks.

[@SamsonGrey26]

Yeah really enjoyed all the call backs to all the previous bosses, thought it was a great way to wrap up the series.. happy gamer! :)

[@dadkwashere]

Love the cliffnotes guide, no detailed bs for this type of contenr needed

[@SamsonGrey26]

for sure! :)

[@Hirotoro4692]

For the full moon attack at 7:35, note that the moonbeams align perfectly with the lines grooved into the floor. Melee can use this to their advantage as it allows them to continue attacking the boss -- you have just enough room to continue your rotation without crossing the grooves -- but you have to be pretty much at max melee range -- and be prepared to move fast as the beams go off. Just don't move TOO Fast -- sprint isn't needed -- or you'll run into the next beam's area early.

[@SamsonGrey26]

Nice, great tip for our melee friends out there! 😀

[@shadow_psych7069]

Absolutely great guide! Thank you for also providing an example for the last boss attacks first form, second form and third form! I was really racking my brain on that one and while i knew the arms indicated direction, my brain just could not compute. Lmao After seeing you do it though, i see much more clearly now how to envision how the attack will come out! :D

[@SamsonGrey26]

Yes first form is a head spinner, dont know why left and right is so hard in mechs like that one!

[@Rasterizing]

Love your guides - right to the point and give all the necessary info! They're detailed enough to explain, but short enough to retain!

[@SamsonGrey26]

Appreciated! Might have to steal that last line, love that! :)

[@Rasterizing]

Go for it! :)

[@danarts5428]

Thanks for this guide! I just got through the raid. It's frustrating that my party didn't prioritize rez mages when more than half of the party was down. I was watching the SMN in my party being the last one to be rezzed. It was painful to watch the healers balance healing and rezzing, while the one DPS on the team that can help with rezzing was being ignored.

[@SamsonGrey26]

seen it many a time unfortunatley, especially frustrating when your the rez mage and know how much you could help!

[@neeskeskneesk4004]

@@SamsonGrey26 It's the reason I stopped maining RDM, I would say something along the line of "I can Rez fast, but can't heal for sh*t - so I'll get folk up if you keep me alive" and promptly not be healed, and be the last one Rez'd :( Really make you feel good /s

[@XionicAihara]

@@neeskeskneesk4004 I cant speak for others, but as a WHM main, when learning, during the heat of the battle, I would zone out and just click on a random DPS when available, not even looking at the role they are. So it isn't so much as cherry picking specific roles, as it is just being overwhelmed in the moment when multiple people are dying and you are trying to stay alive as well as the tank healed. To help myself, I adjusted the role list to have RDM and SMN at the top of the DPS list. Even now in this specific Alliance raid, it is brutally difficult (for me) as i'm still learning it and when I die, it just goes to shit for me cause it's very hard to recover especially with the loss of Mana.

[@08vic24]

Just want to say this is a great guide. Not very long but also takes the time to explain each mechanic well. I’ve had some smooth runs thanks to this.

[@SamsonGrey26]

Glad it helped!

[@6demonai]

Thank you so much for these timely guides. I know people who like going in blind, but my mind can't grasp the mechanics while doing the raid. This helps so much. It even helps afterward when I have trouble with some mechanics. Thanks again!

[@SamsonGrey26]

No problem! now to go back on my alt and enjoy the story! :)

[@taleraristain6918]

Loved this raid and love your non-nonsense guides. You're my go-to now.

[@SamsonGrey26]

Much appreciated!

[@KidultNPlay]

Can't believe people actually were whining about this one not being good!? The music might not have been as good as the ones prior, but still a great send off!

[@lizithekiwi]

Smashing guide, thanks! Did the first run blind for the chaos but this is super helpful, thank you!

[@SamsonGrey26]

thanks, hoped it helped calm the choas 2nd time around! :)

[@brahms6622]

Thanks for making this so quickly! I've watched your guides for the last few patches and they're always excellent. 👍

[@SamsonGrey26]

No problem at all! Awesome to hear you've stuck with them, appreciated! :)

[@MintyMelon]

I still have trouble doing the rotating squares on boss 1 and the hands on boss 4. By the time I get to boss 3, I just follow the crowd cause mechanic overload. Boss 2 is definitely the easier if you remember the melee aoe but I always seem to forget and eat her trident whack. Thanks to this guide I understand a little bit more.

[@XionicAihara]

I will say, learning this as a healer, it is demoralizing. Thank god most people are understanding though

[@jvchoong83]

I love this guide. Short and sweet and tells me where to position. Thank you!

[@neeskeskneesk4004]

Thank you for the guide. I really struggle picking up things during the fight, so it's so helpful to see a guide before I do it!

[@SamsonGrey26]

No problem, I hope it ended up helping! :)

[@neeskeskneesk4004]

@@SamsonGrey26 We're just done (full 24 Lala Raid ;) ) and it was awesome

[@SamsonGrey26]

Haha, epic lala run, sounds brilliant! very glad it helped :)

[@Tarotwh]

This was a great guide, just enough to not drag down the team while letting me experience it myself!

[@SamsonGrey26]

Glad it struck a good balance! :)

[@cappucCyn]

Straight to the point, perfectly well explained! Thank you

[@darkwinter8]

This is a really fun raid! I just finished it.

[@SamsonGrey26]

glad you had a blast! :)

[@soldatjj]

you've got my subscribe! no fuss no muss guide to get the job done. great job! thanks!

[@SamsonGrey26]

Your subscribe is very much appreciated, welcome!

[@Scipiogemini]

Azyma's fans can rotate either 4 or 5 times, just like in Aglaia. 4 rotations = fans end up where they started. 5 rotations = fans end opposite where they started

[@SamsonGrey26]

Good catch!

[@rebellyanmagic6409]

Cheers for this. We nearly wiped to the last boss because of First Form etc.

[@SamsonGrey26]

it's a tricky one for sure!

[@lewys9204]

Your amazing dude!! You got this video finished on the same day with reminders editing. It seems like a long raid bit some say it's fun. I'm going in as a white mage

[@SamsonGrey26]

Thanks! appreciate the support as the making the alliance raid vid is a bit of a slog! the raid its self on the other hand is a lot of fun, enjoy! :)

[@PickleUQ]

Awesome guide! Thank you!🙏🏾

[@SamsonGrey26]

Any time! :)

[@gnarlyboyjai]

Damn this is sick, it’s all the bosses in 1! Badasss

[@capnslapn2905]

good guide, su9per fun raid. their best alliance raid by a longshot

[@SamsonGrey26]

Yeah it was great, not sure if it tops Aglia for me or not, will see how it feels after a few more runs!

[@ruggedlemmings9163]

I greatly appreciate that you get right to the point of describing the attacks. No lame puns or faffing about, just what you need to know. Thanks fam. :^)

[@SamsonGrey26]

Welcome aboard! :)

[@medigoomnis]

I swear they picked almost the exact opposite order of how threatening the Twelve should seem to put them in boss battles. Destroyer first, Wanderer last...hilarious. A couple were in the middle like Althyk and Halone, but...yeah, amusing.

[@SamsonGrey26]

Always the quiet ones! 🤫

[@CupidCrux]

He was stuck in his role as the destroyer. Wanderer spent the most time with mortals and would know how to truly test them.

[@joshk6929]

The best raid thus far that challenges every single brain cell of yours.

[@SamsonGrey26]

It's a good one, tough call for me for best vs. Aglaia!

[@Art2D2]

Hoo boy that was an experience. This is going to take me a lot of practice, but I think this is my new most favorite raid.

[@SamsonGrey26]

Yeah i loved it! :)

[@StellarAvenger]

Seems like the last bosses in the Myths of the Realm raids are always easier than the first ones.

A comment

[@SamsonGrey26]

a reply :)

[@DollRyougi]

Funny that this alliance still easier than orbonne. I hate how the difficulty getting easier and easier becuz of casual player. They might think we're braindead.

[@SamsonGrey26]

Fun mechanics on some of the bosses tho!

[@davidbrent2069]

Then don't play the game. I'm sure nobody will miss you. This game isn't made for ultra hardcore raiding . It's supposed to be more casual.

[@ElemXCR]

@@davidbrent2069 This opinion is but an opinion. I could simply say its wrong. If they made the game harder too, I bet you'd leave jsut the same as you suggested the OP commenter to "don't play the game". Imagine being an asshole who tells people to quit. How about you quit playing the game too and leave it for the others who doesn't give a shit about the difficulty?

[@anannoyedpanda]

Again just aoe bloat. Damn depressing.

[@qwerty-dm8gr]

Why does this exist lmao are ffxiv players this bad like actually?

[@SamsonGrey26]

'Why does this exist'......... For far more compelling reasons than why this comment exists lmao

[@nemnymeria7873]

A guy took a time and effort to make a video to help those in need, some people are slow and not good at games. You don't have to be a dick about it and just move on.
