Good Edit Quick and dirty fight + lore drop No overediting , just some sparkles and short sounds. Liked it

[@hazardyoutube1121]

still my fav part of arr never expected this my team was so happy we so ready for t13

[@JustRuss]

Such a banger cinematic and then T13 to follow was just peak!

[@TheMNWolf]

I've never actually seen this fight done at level. When I finally got around to it, a buddy of mine and I ran it unsynced as just the two of us.

[@JustRuss]

I definitely recommend it! Along with most of the coils if you can find some friends to run them with. It’s good fun!

[@Carsone22]

Love the vids! Making the switch to FFXIV from WoW as well! Just got to Heavsward! Cheers!

[@JustRuss]

Awesome! Welcome and glad you are enjoying the game and vids!

[@Tolly7249]

Honestly the cinematic here makes the Coils completely worth it on its own. I never played 1.0 but knowing how the Calamity was averted and Louisoux met his fate really felt good. He was a hell of a man and he earned the veneration he gets in-story.

[@boanoah6362]

"He could have stuck around." He was a primal, his mind is literally not his own and if he stayed he'd eventually start enthralling everyone around him while also draining aether. It's way better to die as himself than live a little longer and become irrevocably warped until he's enslaved everyone he's loved to worship him as a God.

[@JustRuss]

Yep this makes a lot of sense! I guess he would have eventually become as bad as Ifrit, Titan, Garuda and Bahamut if he was left to his devices

[@filipvadas7602]

​@@JustRuss to be fair, there are Primals that are genuinely benevolent, friendly or that care about their "children" beyond just followers. But they are extremely rare and still require a constant supply of Aether to maintain their form which, needless to say, is still *really bad* for the world as a whole.

[@boanoah6362]

@@filipvadas7602 Well not that, like yeah there are benevolent primals, but more so a primal is a being of faith, their mind and actions and personality are sculpted by the belief in them. If Louisoux stuck around the hopes and prayers of the people that knew him would quite literally effect his mind. Even the twins, what they perceived of their grandfather would've actually changed him to be what they desired, same for the scions, the people that knew him as a man, everyone saw Louisoux in their own way and that would've began to twist him, benevolent or not. More so if people knew about the Phoenix, you see the same in Bahamut, the belief and rage and anger of the Dragons is what made Bahamut into the ultra destructive beast he was. In real life as a living being Bahamut was nothing like the primal is, that's just the nature of primals. It's explained more with Shiva too but without spoiling things a primal made from a living person is a wholly different creature. Primal Louisoux is likely not Louisoux at all, but it has his memories and desires and hopes and in that brief moment was as close to being Louisoux as Phoenix possibly could be.

When people say raids aren’t important to the main story…

[@JustRuss]

This one gives closure to the entire ARR storyline hahah. Crazy that it's optional!

[@JadonTheEternal]

​@JustRuss it's really unfortunate that BCOB is the most important story raid and also the only one without a story mode version

[@JustRuss]

@@JadonTheEternal Yeah i can see that for sure

[@rikamasyume8921]

One funny thing: Alphi was Arcanist switched to Sage ( Arcanist = Scholar + Sumoner ) they can´t let him summen his Grandpa

[@TheMNWolf]

At this point in the story, I don't believe any of the scions had jobs, they only had classes. But I never thought about that, summoner does have access to phoenix LOL.

[@JustRuss]

It happened!

[@darkwulf2k]

I remember progging this back when it was relevant. We spent weeks on this, mostly because of a bad whm, but we spent like 6 weeks on this fight. Back when you had TP, accuracy rating, and other fun things. As Bard having to bait things, and when our LB was a heal lol. Good times....good times...

[@JustRuss]

Hahaha let’s say I’m glad I didn’t play through those days 😂

[@darkwulf2k]

@@JustRuss The TP thing wasnt too bad, but the accuracy rating was a pain. Esp if you were a tank.

[@amundflakkenberg]

Love the new format, lovely pacing and edited. Might i also ask if you will upload older Vods from Twitch to here on youtube?

[@JustRuss]

Thanks! Always trying to improve format and overall content! All the VODs so far are on a seperate channel "JustRuss VODS" but will eventually move over to here when I begin multistreaming in a few weeks most likely
