Raids

CrazyDudeFF: Added note about item level syncs

:''See also: [[Dungeons]], [[Trials]], [[Deep Dungeon]], [[Field Operations]], [[Variant Dungeons]], [[Criterion Dungeons]]''
[[File:Raid.png|25px|link=]] '''Raids''' are the core of the endgame, posing the greatest challenges and offering the strongest loot. Unlike dungeons or trials, current-tier raids have limitations on how much loot players can receive per week. These limitations are removed once the raid is old, to make it easier to catch up. Raids are almost always optional content (the only exception being the first [[Alliance Raid]] series).
{{TOC limit|3}}
==Types of Raids==
===Normal Raids===
'''Normal raids''' are fought by 8 players against a single boss, similar to a [[trial]]. Older raids may have other enemies or mini-bosses before the final boss, but the single-boss format has been consistent since [[Omega: Deltascape]]. Normal raids are similar in difficulty to normal-difficulty trials and can be completed using [[Duty Finder]] matchmaking. The exception is the Lv. 50 Bahamut raid series, which is closer to Savage difficulty by default.

====Participation====
Normal raids are released in sets of four duties in the x.01, x.2, and x.4 patches of an expansion, for a total of 12 duties over three raid tiers in an expansion. They can be unlocked by completing certain blue unlock quests, which become accessible after completing the Main Scenario Quests in the base (x.0) expansion. These duties must be completed in sequence, e.g, completion of the first tier is required to unlock the second tier. Players who meet the minimum item level requirement for a normal raid can queue for it through Duty Finder.

====Item Level Sync====

Unlike Dungeons, most Raids do not have item level syncs, which means your item level will be synced to the maximum obtainable gear at the job level you are synced to. This over time can make Raids rather trivial, especially if they have a low minimum item level compared to the max obtainable for the expansion. For example, Alexander: The Fist of the Father has a minimum item level of 170, but high level players joining from Roulettes will often be synced to only 270/275, making the fight much shorter and less healing intensive than the original experience. Savage Raids are especially susceptible to this, as even a small increase in gear can drastically reduce the difficulty of such otherwise tightly tuned fights. Players that are looking for a more engaging and balanced experience may want to consider doing certain Raids in a preformed group via Party Finder with the Minimum Item Level option enabled. This will adjust the gear for all involved to provide an experience somewhat closer to the original release.

Note that Minimum Item Level will only make the content as hard as the developers designed it to be at that item level. Normal Raids - with the exception of Coils of Bahamut - will still be easily clearable, while Savage Raids can be expected to generally be extremely brutal on this setting.

====Rewards====
Normal raids drop a variety of equipment "tokens" which can be exchanged at certain vendors for high item level gear. In addition, the final duty of a Normal raid will drop a guaranteed [[Raid Tokens|sword item]], of which seven can be exchanged along with 500 of the current capped tomestones for a weapon that is 10 item levels higher than current crafted gear. In a later patch, this requirement is lowered to four swords. When a Normal raid series is current, players may obtain one token per duty and one sword from the final floor per week.

===Savage Raids===
Each normal raid also has a higher-difficulty equivalent, called a '''savage raid''', which uses the same boss but with more difficult mechanics, more health, and higher outgoing damage. In addition, all Savage bosses have a time limit in which they must be defeated or they will wipe the party with an enrage ability. Savage encounters usually follow a gradually increasing difficulty curve, with the first two encounters comparable in difficulty to an Extreme trial with a slightly higher damage requirement, and the last two encounters being significantly more challenging. Beginning with [[Omega: Deltascape (Savage)]], the final duty of each Savage raid tier is usually split into two boss encounters, with a checkpoint in between, meaning that wiping to the second phase will reset the party to the start of that phase. However, leaving the instance and resetting will require defeating the first phase again to re-acquire the checkpoint. The exceptions are [[Eden's Gate: Sepulture (Savage)]] and [[Eden's Verse: Refulgence (Savage)]], which are singular encounters containing boss phases exclusive to the Savage version, but no checkpoint. The first phase is usually referred to as a ''door boss'' by the community.

Since Deltascape (Savage), the first Savage tier in an expansion is usually deliberately tuned to be easier to allow players to become accustomed to the expansion's job changes and additions. The second and third tiers are then designed to be more challenging than the first.

When a savage raid is no longer new, {{buff|the echo}} [[The Echo]] will applied to all players upon entering the duty, and the strength of this buff will not increase upon wiping. Savage raids from prior expansions are typically done with an [[Unrestricted Party]] (i.e., with level sync disabled) to complete them more easily, which does not impact rewards.

====Participation====
Savage raids are released 1-2 weeks after Normal raids in the x.05, x.2, and x.4 patches of an expansion. They can be unlocked by completing the respective Normal raid tier. Completion of the previous tier's Savage encounters is not required to unlock the current Savage tier. Savage raids are typically too difficult to be completed using [[Duty Finder]] matchmaking, so players in most data centers opt to use [[Party Finder]] for both practice and duty completion, or form "static" raid groups with other players.

Savage raids have a higher average item level requirement than the corresponding Normal raids, with the requirement for the first floor being the same item level as the maximum item level armor in the previous patch, the second floor being 5 item levels higher, and the third and fourth floors being 10 item levels higher. Savage raids are always released with new crafted and normal raid gear that meet the minimum item level for the last floors, along with weekly-capped tomestone gear that is 10 item levels higher. Players who wish to aim for an early clear of the tier are strongly advised to acquire a full set of {{HQ}} ''[[High Quality]]'' crafted gear and fully [[Materia Melding|meld]] it with [[materia]] ("pentamelding"), although this is a costly process. For the second and third Savage tier of an expansion, the extreme trial that was released with the patch will drop weapons that are 5 item levels higher than the crafted weapon, providing a good starting point for players who wish to participate in the tier.

====Rewards====
Savage raids drop coffers that can be used to obtain equipment 20 item levels higher than the respective normal raid tier's loot. In addition, Savage raids reward items that can be used to augment the current weekly-capped tomestone equipment to the same item level as Savage gear. The final duty of each Savage raid tier rewards weapons that are at the maximum item level and exclusive mounts. For each job, the "best-in-slot" gear for a patch comprises a mixture of Savage gear and augmented tomestone gear based on which pieces provide the most desirable sub-stats.

Each duty in a Savage raid tier will also reward each party member with a [[Raid Tokens|book]], of which a certain number can be exchanged for equipment coffers and upgrade materials. When a Savage raid series is current, players may obtain one book per duty per week. In addition, the number of treasure chests that appear upon completion will depend on how many players have completed the duty for the week, with 2 chests appearing if no one has completed it, 1 chest if one to four party members have completed it, and no chests if five or more have completed it for the week. Unlike Normal raids, there is no restriction on how many rewards a single player can win from loot rolls as long as a chest appears. However, once a player has completed a duty for the week and leaves the instance, they will not be able to roll for loot upon defeating the boss again, regardless of whether they rolled or won any items the first time, until the weekly reset time.

Upon registering for and completing a current Savage raid, the player's weekly progress will be updated to that point, preventing them from obtaining rewards from previous raids regardless of whether they have completed them for the week.

Example: A player has yet to complete Abyssos: The Fifth Circle (Savage) for the week. They cannot register for Abyssos: The Sixth Circle (Savage). However, they join a premade party in which the leader has completed Abyssos: The Fifth Circle (Savage) for the week and can register for Abyssos: The Sixth Circle (Savage). The player can enter Abyssos: The Sixth Circle (Savage), but will forfeit all rewards from Abyssos: The Fifth Circle (Savage) until the next weekly reset.

Reward eligibility is [[reset]] every Tuesday at 8:00 (GMT).
* In the event a raid is underway when reward eligibility is reset, players will still be permitted to vie for items during the upcoming week.

===[[File:Ultimate Raid.png|25px|link=]] Ultimate Raids===
Beginning with Stormblood, some raid tiers are also followed by a single '''ultimate raid''' released two weeks into the following odd-numbered major patch (i.e., x.11 or x.31). Ultimate raids are boss gauntlet style encounters where players encounter a series of significantly more powerful bosses from previous raids, trials, and dungeons. The final boss of an Ultimate raid is an original enemy design that was not present in earlier duties. Wiping at any point in the gauntlet will reset the encounter to the beginning. The sole exception is {{questlink|ultimateraid|Dragonsong's Reprise (Ultimate)}}, which has one checkpoint after the first phase of the encounter.

====Participation====
Ultimate raids can be unlocked by completing the fourth encounter of the Savage raid tier released in the previous patch from when the ultimate raid was released. Players must form a full party of 8 people to enter an instance; matchmaking through Duty Finder or Raid Finder is unavailable. Moreover, to mostly preserve the difficulty of ultimate raids even as newer content is released, each ultimate raid has a strict item level sync and no option to complete using an [[Unrestricted Party]] (i.e., with level sync disabled). However, due to job overhauls and other battle system changes, older ultimate raids are currently more forgiving than when they were first released in terms of DPS, healing, and mitigation requirements, allowing much more room for error.

Newly-released ultimate raids are designed for players who have maximum item level, best-in-slot gear. Note that the item level of best-in-slot armor and accessories is 5 item levels ''lower'' than the item level sync for a newly-released ultimate raid. Two major patches after an ultimate raid is released, players may acquire gear from the newly released dungeon, which will be at the same item level as the item level sync for the Ultimate raid. Unless if an ultimate raid is from a previous expansion, it is not desirable to sync down current item level gear, because sub-stats from materia melds will not not carried over. For older ultimate raids, players are free to equip any Lv. 90 gear, as the item level sync calculations will maximize the possible sub-stats.

Many players choose to form or join "static" raid groups with other players to progress and complete ultimate raids. However, it is also possible to use Party Finder to clear them, especially for older ultimate raids, due to the presence of standardized strategies.

====Rewards====
Due to their very high difficulty, ultimate raids are meant to be prestige content that is not part of normal gear progression. Ultimate raids reward [[Raid Tokens|totems]] that can be traded at certain vendors for weapons with special particle effects. These weapons are of the same item level as the previous Savage raid tier's but contain an extra materia melding slot. Completion of ultimate raids also unlock achievements, exclusive titles, and [[Adventurer Plate]] designs. When an ultimate raid is newly-released, each party member may obtain one totem per week for completion; this restriction is lifted in the next major patch.

===Alliance Raids===
'''Alliance raids''' are fought by 24 players against a sequence of bosses and mobs, similar to a large-scale [[dungeon]]. These are all considered normal-difficulty content.

====Participation====
Alliance raids are released in odd-numbered patches (x.1, x.3, x.5), for a total of three alliance raids per expansion. They can be unlocked by completing certain blue unlock quests, which become accessible after completing the Main Scenario Quests in the base (x.0) expansion. These duties must be completed in sequence, e.g, completion of the first alliance raid of an expansion is required to unlock the second raid. To participate, players who meet the average minimum item level requirement can register using Duty Finder matchmaking.

====Rewards====
Each boss encounter in an alliance raid drops treasure chests containing equipment that can be rolled on, with the final boss also rewarding exclusive minions and orchestrion rolls. The equipment is meant to be "catch-up" and is the same item item level as current, non-augmented tomestone gear. The final boss also drops a guaranteed [[Raid Tokens|coin]], which can be exchanged at certain vendors for tomestone gear upgrade materials that were previously exclusive to the current Savage raids. When an Alliance raid is current, each player can obtain one piece of equipment and one coin per week.

CrazyDudeFF: Added note about item level syncs

''See also: [[Dungeons]], [[Raids]], [[Deep Dungeon]], [[Field Operations]], [[Variant Dungeons]], [[Criterion Dungeons]]''
==Introduction==
[[File:Trial.png|25px|link=]] '''Trials''' are encounters where adventurers fight together against extremely powerful creatures. Each trial consists of a single boss fight (a few are broken up into two parts). When the boss is defeated, players are rewarded with story progression, tokens or rare items. A few early trials require a [[Party#Light Party|light party]] of 4 players while most others need a [[Party#Full Party|full party]] of 8.

The lists are broken into 2 sections for each expansion: story-mode '''Normal and Hard Trials''', and '''High-end (Extreme and Unreal) Trials'''. Players are expected by the developers to be able to clear all story-mode trials, with the High-end section being significantly more difficult completely optional content.
{{TOC limit|3}}
===Normal and Hard Trials===
'''Normal''' difficulty are fought by four players. '''Hard''' difficulty trials are fought by eight players, but are not significantly more difficult than "Normal" trials. After Lv. 50, the distinction between Normal and Hard difficulty trials is removed, and all base difficulty trials past that point are fought by a full party of eight players.

====Participation====
All Normal difficulty trials are unlocked as part of the A Realm Reborn Main Scenario quests. Hard difficulty trials can be unlocked as part of Main Scenario quests in each expansion, or through optional quests at the level cap of each expansion. Both Normal and Hard difficulty trials can be completed using [[Duty Finder]] matchmaking.

====Item Level Sync====
Unlike Dungeons, most Trials do not have item level syncs, which means your item level will be synced to the maximum obtainable gear at the job level you are synced to. This over time can make Trials added at levels 50/60/70/80/90 rather trivial, especially if they have a low minimum item level compared to the max obtainable for the expansion. For example, The Royal Menagerie has a minimum item level of 280, but high level players joining from Roulettes will often be synced to only 400/405, making the fight much shorter and less healing intensive than the original experience. High End Trials are especially susceptible to this, as even a small increase in gear can drastically reduce the difficulty of such otherwise tightly tuned fights. Players that are looking for a more engaging and balanced experience may want to consider doing certain Trials in a preformed group via Party Finder with the Minimum Item Level and Silence Echo options enabled. This will adjust the gear for all involved and remove the Echo to provide an experience somewhat closer to the original release.

Note that Minimum Item Level will only make the content as hard as the developers designed it to be at that item level. Normal Trials will - with a few exceptions - still be easily clearable, while Extremes can be expected to generally be very challenging on this setting.

====Rewards====
Normal and hard trials typically do not provide item rewards, with a few exceptions. Completion of the daily [[Duty Roulette|Trials Roulette]] will reward experience, Gil, and tomestones, depending on the player's level.

===Extreme Trials===
'''Extreme''' difficulty trials are usually fought by eight players against a significantly more powerful version of the boss from the base difficulty trial (the exception is [[The Great Hunt (Extreme)]], which is fought by four players). Some extreme trials are denoted as '''Minstrel's Ballad''', which are reserved for bosses that had particular importance to the main story. All Extreme bosses have a time limit in which they must be defeated or they will wipe the party with an enrage ability. Completion of extreme trials is not required for Main Scenario Quest progression.

====Participation====
Extreme trials can be unlocked from various quests after completing the base difficulty trial. '''In North American and European data centers, most players use [[Party Finder]] to practice and complete extreme trials instead of Duty Finder matchmaking.'''

For trials not released in the current expansion, the most common way of completing them is to use an [[Unrestricted Party]] (i.e., with level sync disabled) for an easy completion or loot farming, as there is no tangible benefit to completing with Level Sync enabled.

====Rewards====
Most extreme trials drop [[Endgame Gear Guide|weapon coffers]] that can be used to obtain high [[Item Level|item level]] weapons depending on the current job. In addition, most extreme trials rarely to uncommonly drop [[Desynthesis_Rewards#Trial_Crafting_Materials|special crafting materials]], which can be used to craft [[Chocobo Barding|chocobo bardings]], [[Housing Items|housing decorations]], and [[Extreme Trial Glamour Weapons|weapons]] with special particle effects. Note that the glamour weapons are released several major patches after the trial. and not all trials have associated weapons. The crafting materials and most glamour weapons can also be sold on the [[Market Board]].

Most extreme trials can also rarely drop a [[mounts|mount]]. The drop rate of the mount increases once the extreme trial is no longer new. Collecting each extreme trial mount in an expansion will unlock a quest that rewards an exclusive mount.

To mitigate poor luck on loot rolls, all extreme trials since ''Heavensward'' ([[patch 3.0]]) will reward each party member with 1-2 [[:Category:Trial Totems|totems]], depending on the trial, per completion, which can be exchanged for [[weapons]] (requiring 10 totems) and in a later patch, the mount (requiring 99 totems).

The equipment rewards structure for extreme trials varies depending on the patch it is released:
* Expansion launch (x.0) - Two extreme trials. One trial rewards weapons and the other trial rewards accessories, both of which are 10 item levels higher than equipment obtained from the newest uncapped tomestones.
* x.1 - One extreme trial, rewarding weapons that are 15 item levels higher than the previous (x.0) trial weapons but 10 item levels below the weapons obtainable from the current Savage raids released in x.05.
* x.2 - One extreme trial, rewarding weapons that are 20 item levels higher than the previous (x.1) trial weapons, 5 item levels higher than the newly added crafted weapons in x.2, but 20 item levels below the weapons obtainable from the current Savage raids released in x.2.
* x.3 - One extreme trial, rewarding weapons that are 10 item levels higher than the previous (x.2) trial weapons but 10 item levels below the weapons obtainable from the current Savage raids.
* x.4 - One extreme trial, rewarding weapons that are 20 item levels higher than the previous (x.3) trial weapons, 5 item levels higher than the newly added crafted weapons in x.4, but 20 item levels below the weapons obtainable from the current Savage raids released in x.4.
* x.5 - One extreme trial, rewarding weapons that are 10 item levels higher than the previous (x.4) trial weapons but 10 item levels below the weapons obtainable from the current Savage raids.

Additional extreme trials (e.g., [[The Great Hunt (Extreme)]], [[Memoria Misera (Extreme)]]) may be released in some patches, but these provide different rewards compared to the usual structure.

===Unreal Trials===
'''Unreal''' difficulty trials are part of the [[Faux Hollows]] feature and are mechanically identical to older Extreme trials but have been manually re-scaled to the current level cap to provide an authentic challenge. Unreal trials have a strict item level sync, preventing players from out-gearing the encounters as in Extreme trials. Usually, one Unreal trial is available per major patch since they were introduced in [[Patch 5.3]]. Once the next patch is released, a new unreal trial will become available and older unreal trials become inaccessible.

====Participation====
The current unreal trial can be unlocked by completing the quest [[Fantastic Mr. Faux]] and the story-mode version of the trial. This quest does not need to be repeated when a new unreal trial is released.

====Rewards====
Unreal trials do not directly provide item rewards. Players may complete the current unreal trial to unlock one attempt ("telling") at the [[Faux Hollows]] minigame, which reward a currency that can be exchanged for exclusive mounts, minions, and glamour items. Players may also earn a "retelling" from the first Faux Hollows game, which will allow them to repeat the trial for a second attempt at Faux Hollows. Players may earn one telling and one retelling per week.

===[[File:Aggressive difficulty r6.png|link=]] [[Primal]]: [[Shinryu]]===

*While those simply interested in story are advised to just queue for this content in Duty Finder, those seeking a more engaging and balanced experience should consider doing this content in a preformed group via Party Finder with the Minimum Item Level and Silence Echo options enabled. This is due to the fact that there is a massive difference between the intended minimum item level of the duty (280) and the effective maximum (400/405). With these options enabled, players will experience the content in a manner more similar to its original release state.

The battle with Shinryu consists of a battle atop large platforms in three stages, with a short Active Time Event between the second and third stages, and the main mechanic of this fight is Shinryu's Corrupted Aether bar.

Falling off the platforms is instantly fatal, but players are dropped back onto the field and can be Raised by healers.

===Attacks===
====Corrupted Aether====
Whenever Shinryu's Corrupted Aether bar reaches 100%, he will begin charging an elemental attack. Each attack is similar to one used by Leviathan, Garuda, Ifrit, Ramuh, Titan, and Shiva
* '''Water (Tidal Wave):''' Phase 1 & 3. When Shinryu uses Water, a large waterspout will appear at one end of the arena. You must immediately run over and stand at the edge next to it, as you'll be pushed to the far side of the platform when the cast completes, similar to Leviathan's attack in The Whorleater. This always seems to be the first attack he uses, and spawns several large puddles. Unsure if it is time based or rotation based but Tidal wave has been seen in phase 3, functioning the same way it does in phase 1. Distance pushed in phase 3 is just under 2 segments
* '''Wind (Aerial Blast):''' Phase 3 only. When Shinryu uses Wind, a large whirlwind will spawn in the center of the platform and begin pulsing knockback effects. Concentrate on staying close to the center of the platform whilst this occurs, as it will pulse another powerful knockback when it ends.
* '''Fire (Hellfire):''' When Shinryu uses Fire, he'll blast the entire platform. He won't use this attack if there aren't any water pools from either his Water or Ice attacks, as you'll need to stand in them to reduce the damage you take from this attack.
* '''Lightning (Judgment Bolt):''' When Shinryu uses Lightning, he'll again blast the entire platform. If there are any pools of water up, make sure you're '''not''' standing in them, or you'll take even more damage!
* '''Earth (Earthern Fury):''' Phase 3 only. When Shinryu uses Earth, he'll cause moderate damage to everyone whilst also targeting one of the platforms specifically, and damage (or shatter) that as well.
* '''Ice (Diamond Dust):''' Phase 3 only. When Shinryu uses Ice, he will freeze the entire platform and make it slippery. ''Don't move or you'll go flying around the platform and probably fall to your death.'' This also spawns large puddles as with Tidal Wave.

====Wings====
Shinryu has two untargetable wing entities that perform additional attacks throughout the encounter. Normally, they simply attack the tanks with green energy bolts, but will occasionally unleash additional attacks.
* '''Right Wing:''' When the right wing starts glowing, several players will be marked with a purple indicator, and shortly after hit by lightning bolts. Spread out to minimize the damage taken by the party.
* '''Left Wing:''' When the left wing starts glowing, Shinryu performs one of two ice attacks, either summoning a series of icicles that charge across the platform, or a low-damage attack across the entire platform. Do not mistake the latter for his Corrupted Ice Aether attack!

====Other Attacks====
Shinryu will occasionally use '''Earth Breath''', which marks two players. When the cast finishes, he'll lay down a pair of AoE cones aimed at those players and blast everyone caught in them. Both targets should either stack up and run to one side, ''or'' split to opposite sides, so that there's a safe zone on one side and/or the center.

Shinryu also has a purple version of Ahk Morn. Stack up to reduce damage taken. During Phase 3, a secondary blue beam will spawn on top of a random party member and pulse several times. Unlike the primary Ahk Morn, the secondary beam doesn't track, so just get out of the way and you'll be fine.

In Phase 3, he also gains several new attacks;
* '''Tail Slam:''' A large, powerful attack with some phase-specific effects. See Phase 3 section.
* '''Line Charge:''' A very wide line charge that covers the entire platform and has modest knockback. Either get clear entirely (Sprint if you need to) or soak the hit.
* '''Ground Pound:''' When Shinryu's Corrupted Aether reaches around 80%, he'll target the center platform with a large circular AoE. Get clear or you'll get smacked for a lot of damage.
* '''Burning Chains:''' Shinryu will mark and '''chain two players''' together, dealing damage over time for as long as they remain chained. '''Break it by moving as far apart as possible.'''

During Phase 3, he may also occasionally mark a player with an odd green marker. This seems to influence where his next Tail Slam is targeted, but otherwise has no effect.

===Phases===
====Phase 1====
When the gauge reaches 100 for the first time, '''run to the edge with the pillar of water falling from the sky to avoid being pushed off'''.
Healers: use Rescue to save people by pulling them to the edge.

After Shinryu has used two Corrupted Aether attacks, the battle transitions to phase 2.

====Phase 2====
Shinryu will depart the platform briefly.

Several large AoEs are laid down; '''move as far away as possible to minimize damage taken'''.
These blasts have no knockback, so you can '''safely stand at the corners or edge of the platform''' (and will probably need to).

Shinryu will summon three waves of Hakkinryu and Ginryu adds.

Wave 1 is 2 Ginryu and 1 Hakkinryu; Wave 2 is 3 Ginryu and 1 Hakkinryu, and Wave 3 is 5 Ginryu.

Kill all of the adds as quickly as possible and prepare for phase transition.

Shinryu will Fetter everyone and commence an Active Time Maneuver.
'''Mash the button''' so that the bar fills before the time runs out or else you'll start Phase 3 on the floor with 0 HP.

====Phase 3====
This phase opens with the party landing on a three-by-three grid of large platforms, with Shinryu using his new line charge attack almost immediately. This has a short knockback, '''so either get clear of it entirely (corners) or stand as far away from the edges''' as possible and soak the damage.

'''The inner grey platform is unbreakable''', but the outer blue platforms can be broken by Shinryu's Tail Slam and Corrupted Earth Aether attacks. The former marks two platforms, whilst the latter marks one. After using the Tail Slam, Shinryu's tail is vulnerable and should be attacked ''immediately''. Reducing it to 0% transfers the damage to Shinryu and can take a decent chunk (around 5-6%) out of his health in the process, making the fight a lot easier.

Every two Corrupted Aether attacks, Shinryu will use his line charge and switch which side of the platform he's attacking from, but otherwise his attacks are mostly on shuffle now, and nothing new will come up.

The North American and European datacenters primarily use '''[[Party Finder]]''' to challenge (Extreme) content. Using Duty Finder to match with random players is not recommended and will be more difficult than pre-forming a party. For an easy completion, it is recommended that players use Party Finder and form an [[Unrestricted Party]] (i.e., with level sync disabled). Players who wish to complete this duty with level sync enabled should also form a pre-made party, which also enables the use of Minimum Item Level and Silence Echo settings for an additional challenge.

===[[File:Aggressive difficulty r6.png|link=]] [[King Thordan]] and His Knights Twelve===

*Note: Players seeking a more challenging and balanced experience should consider doing this content in a preformed group via Party Finder with the Minimum Item Level option enabled. This is due to the fact that there is a massive difference between the intended minimum item level of the duty (190) and the effective maximum (270/275). Depending on how hard you wish to make it, the Silence Echo option can be enabled as well. With these options enabled, players will experience the content in a manner more similar to its original release state.

===Before the fight===
* Assign players the following positions:

MT
M1 M2
H1 H2
R1 R2
OT

* Assign tanks to knights in Phase 3 (east/west)
* Assign dps positions to go to for Skyward Leap (typically North -> South -> North)

===Phase 1: Thordan===
Tank Thordan facing away from the party because of Ascalon's Might (frontal cleave). When Thordan casts Dragon's Gaze, turn around to avoid getting hysteria. Spread out for Lightning Storm, then stack behind Thordan to split the damage from Dragon's Rage. Tanks and healers need to watch for the tankbuster, Heavenly Heel. Ascalon's Might follows right after Heavenly Heel hits, so healers will need to help the tank recover quickly after Heel.

This phase ends after Heavenly Heel -> Ascalon's Might, or when Thordan's HP reaches 70%. Thordan will become untargetable, and leave his sword behind North before disappearing. His sword can be used as an additional marker.

Thordan's HP should be below 75% to be on track to meeting enrage. The outer ring of the arena will now deal 9999 damage per tick to any player standing at the edge.

===Phase 2a: Conviction Towers===
Have the party stack in the middle of the arena. When the Heavensflames spawn (red circles), have the party spread out to their pre-assigned positions, breaking Holy Chains as they do so. Prioritize breaking chains over moving to position. Four Conviction Towers will spawn at any of the eight cardinal directions. Avoid Heavensflames and stand in a tower. Be careful as a Heavensflame may spawn at a tower location- if so, wait for the Heavensflame to explode before standing in the tower. If each tower has at least one person standing in it, the mechanic is completed successfully, otherwise the party will be paralyzed (which can be removed).

===Phase 2b: Sacred Cross + Spiral Thrust===
Ser Zephirin will spawn in the middle of the arena and start casting Sacred Cross. This is a dps check, and when Sacred Cross is cast, it will deal damage to the party based on Ser Zephirin's remaining health. You will need to bring Ser Zephirin's health to below 50% to survive the Sacred Cross. This isn't a tight dps check, so consider saving cooldowns for the next phase.

After Sacred Cross, the Spiral Thrust Knights, Sers Vellguine, Ignasse, and Paulecrain, will spawn outside the arena and prepare to charge down the center. This is easily done by standing at the center of each leaf-like decal that outlines the edge of the arena, where the stem would be.

===Phase 3: Two Knights===
Two knights will spawn- Ser Adelphel on the west, and Ser Janlenoux on the east. They will cast Divine Right that will give one of them Sword Oath, and the other Shield Oath. The two knights need to be tanked separately at the edges, or they will tether and share buffs. All dps should attack the knight with Sword Oath. After Divine Right, both knights will prepare their first tankbuster, Holy Bladedance. The tank with the Sword Oath knight will need heavy cooldowns (e.g: Inner Beast + Vengeance), or use an invincibility cooldown, while the tank with the Shield Oath knight will probably need a single cooldown (e.g: just Inner Beast).

After the first bladedance, the Spiral Thrust Knights will appear in the center and jump up, which is the cue for Skyward Leap. Three dps will be marked with a blue prey mark, one after the other, with about two seconds in between. The first dps marked moves north and waits for the knight to pounce on him/her before rejoining the group. When pounced, the party will take damage based on proximity to the impact point. The second dps marked moves south for this mechanic, while the third dps marked moves north again. During this time, the knights will cast a second Divine Right (switches stances) and perform Heavenly Slash on the tanks.

Holiest of Holy (party-wide AoE) follows after this, and then the second Holy Bladedance, so make sure the entire party and tanks are topped up in time. The Divine Right -> Holiest of Holy -> Holy Bladedance cycle repeats until both knights are dead.

This phase is made significantly easier if one knight is downed quickly. Farm groups will likely only see one Holy Bladedance, although beginning groups will probably see two, and should strive not to see a third.

After both knights are dead, gather the party in the center of the arena.

===Phase 4a: Dimensional Collapse + Spiral Pierce + Hiemal Storm===
Stack at the center of the arena, and spread to your pre-assigned positions when Dimensional Collapse (black circles) appear. Three players will be tethered to one of the knights in the center, while the other five will be marked for Hiemal Storm (shiva circles). As you move to your position, take note of where the tethered players are.

After Spiral Pierce and Hiemal Storm, stack again in the center for the knockback. Orient yourself so that you will not be knocked back into any of the frost circles that should be placed on the outside (i.e: move to where the tethers were).

===Phase 4b: Meteors + Heavy Impact===
Healers remove any Frostbite debuffs from any afflicted party members. Eight Comet Circles will spawn along the eight cardinal directions, and one Meteor Circle in the center. The party can survive one Comet Circle touching the floor, but not two, so it may be a good idea to determine which comet to ignore in advance. After the comets explode, focus on the Meteor circle.

Some players will be marked for Holy Meteor, which will do light damage in an area around them. As a result, avoid stacking two marked players together.

Ser Hermenost will spawn in the center of the arena and perform Heavy Impact- concentric red rings that will damage and stun any player hit by them. These should be avoided by either moving to the safe sector, or by crossing rings as the inner ring explodes.

===Phase 4c: Ultimate End===
After the Meteor Circle is destroyed, King Thordan will reappear and his knights will perform The Light of Ascalon, which does minor damage and a small knockback per hit. Shield the raid after this to prepare for Ultimate End. Its damage will increase for each party member that died during Thordan's absence.

===Phase 5: Spear of Fury===
Tank Thordan north, with the MT standing at 11 o'clock, and the party at 1 o'clock. Dragon's Eye will now spawn a real Dragon's Eye at the edge of the arena. From here on, players must avoid looking at both Thordan and the dragon eye for Dragon's Gaze. This first Dragon's Eye will always spawn north, but subsequent casts will move it to a random location.

Thordan will cast Knights of the Round, summoning Adelphel and Janlenoux, who will mark a healer (green mark) for Holy Shield Bash, stunning them and increasing their magic vulnerability. That player should move to the outer edge of the arena, while the rest of the party arranges themselves so the OT is closest to the center of the arena and the affected healer is on the outside.

Ser Zephirin will then spawn in the middle of the arena and begin casting Spear of Fury to kill the healer. To mitigate damage, The OT should stand between Zephirin and the healer and use cooldowns with stand the spear, while the dps players stand between the OT and the Healer. If any player dies from this attack, Zephirin will enrage and wipe the party. Players hit will also be debuffed with Infirmary (healing received down).

As Spear of Fury happens, Thordan will also Heavenly Heel the MT. Healers quickly top up the MT, and have the whole party turn around to dodge Dragon's Gaze, after which the Infirmary debuff will wear off. Heal up the party quickly for Ancient Quagga.

===Phase 6: Conviction Towers + Dragon's Gaze + Heavy Impact===
Thordan casts Dragon's Eye, and the MT will need to move Thordan to the eye's new location. Face Thordan towards the Eye.

When he casts Knights of the round and you see the bright animation, Sers Guerrique and Hermenost, followed by Ser Grinnaux, will spawn and begin the next series of mechanics.

The first set of mechanics is the Four Conviction Towers part. There will be two knights in the arena in a line, one in front of the other; denoted by the two dashes in this example --. While there is a lot of moving going on, players may miss the two knights are standing in place for the conviction towers. The four conviction towers will always form a line perpendicular to the knights straight through the center of the arena. So the shape of the attack is two knights --| with the conviction towers; denoted by the | symbol. This will help prevent raid death if people are already lined up, facing away from the Dragon eye so they can prepare to move into a tower before Dragon's Gaze is cast. Just like in Phase 2a, each tower needs at least one person standing in it to avoid party-wide damage and paralysis.
(The position of the knights may be random as I cannot correlate their formation with anything else at this time. However, the four conviction towers are not random. They will always be in a line perpendicular to the knights. Essentially forming a --| shape when the towers show up on screen. It is hard to describe this attack pattern with words so I do hope my instructions are understandable.)

Each ring from Heavy Impact only affects one half of the tower, so have players move to the outer half of each Conviction Tower, remembering to face away for Dragon's Gaze. To help spread players out, you may want to agree on a scheme (e.g: melee take the inner two towers, ranged take the outer two, tanks and healers try to fill in).

The Dragon's Gaze check happens when the first Heavy Impact ring explodes, while the Conviction Tower check happens as the second Heavy Impact ring explodes.

After Conviction Towers, Grinnaux spawns Dimensional Collapse circles at each player's location. Thordan then prepares to cast Dragon's Rage, but Grinnaux will also be preparing a knockback, Faith Unmoving, so players should stack in the middle to both manage the stack marker and avoid hitting the edges. After that, have the MT split away from the group, being careful not to hit anyone with Thordan's Ascalon's Might (frontal cleave).

===Phase 7: Lightning Storm + Skyward Leap + Spiral Thrust + Dragon's Rage===
Ignore the Dragon's Eye Thordan casts during this phase, as there is no Dragon's Gaze. Thordan will cast Lightning Storm, just as in Phase 1, and then the three knights that from phase 2b (Vellguine, Ignasse, and Paulecrain) will be summoned next. After Lightning Storm hits, quickly heal up the party. Ser Ignasse marks a player (not the MT) for Skyward Leap (blue prey mark) and Ser Paulecrain will remain at the center and tether to another player. Ser Vellguine will be outside the arena preparing to charge as in phase 2b.

As Thordan begins to cast Dragon's Rage, Thordan should be on the edge of the arena, out of the Spiral Thrust knight's path. The player marked for Skyward Leap should move opposite the party to reduce the damage the party takes from Skyward Leap, while the tethered player must avoid both the party and the Spiral Thrust knight, while ideally being away from the Skyward Leap player.

A simple way while learning the fight would be to have the MT bring Thordan about 45 degrees from the Spiral Thrust knight. Then, the Skyward Leap player moves opposite, while the tethered player moves 90 degrees from the party in either direction.

After Dragon's Rage hits, heal the tank in preparation for Heavenly Heel and Ascalon's Might.

===Phase 8: Holy Chains + Dragon's Gaze + Ascalon's Fury + Hiemal Storm + Heavensflame===
Thordan will cast Dragon's Eye- move him to the eye's new location. All players (other than the MT) should stack behind Thordan. Shortly after Thordan's Ascalon's Might, Knights of the Round is cast again and three knights, Ser Charibert, SerHaumeric, and Ser Noudenet are summoned and cast the above mechanics. The party will be inflicted with Holy Chains, Spread out to your pre-assigned location, relative to the MT (treat the MT as north). Once again, prioritize breaking Holy Chains.

The party members will naturally avoid Dragon's Gaze as they spread out to break Holy Chains, other than the MT, who will need to move sideways to help break his/her chain. As chains are getting broken, Hiemal Storm markers and Ascalon's Mercy will appear- dodge Ascalon's Mercy and place Hiemal Storm before stacking back behind Thordan.

Quickly heal up the party to prepare for Ancient Quagga -> Heavenly Heel -> Ancient Quagga, bearing in mind that Thordan's damage is significantly stronger now because of accumulated Increase Damage stacks.

===Phase 9: Sacred Cross + Dragon's Gaze===
At the final Knights of the Round, two to three knights will spawn at a time (starting with Adelphel and Janlenoux) and begin casting heavy raidwide damage, putting healers on high alert. The last knight to appear is Ser Zephirin, who will begin to cast Sacred Cross again. This time, however, he will be tethered to Thordan, making him invulnerable until Sacred Cross is finished. Zephirin has significantly more health, so an DPS LB3 should be used on Zephirin if it was not already used on Thordan.

After Sacred Cross, prepare for Heavenly Heel -> Ascalon's Might. After that, Thordan will use Ascalon's Might several times in a row before slowly casting Ancient Quagga. This last Ancient Quagga is the hard enrage of the fight and will wipe the raid if Thordan is not defeated in time.

The North American and European datacenters primarily use '''[[Party Finder]]''' to challenge (Extreme) content. Using Duty Finder to match with random players is not recommended and will be more difficult than pre-forming a party. Note that despite the quest text, players only need to complete the trial using any means, not necessarily with Duty Finder matchmaking, to complete the quest. For an easy completion, it is recommended that players use Party Finder and form an [[Unrestricted Party]] (i.e., with level sync disabled). Players who wish to complete this duty with level sync enabled should also form a pre-made party, which also enables the use of Minimum Item Level and Silence Echo settings for an additional challenge.

*Note: Players seeking a more challenging and balanced experience should consider doing this content in a preformed group via Party Finder with the Minimum Item Level option enabled. This is due to the fact that there is a massive difference between the intended minimum item level of the duty (175) and the effective maximum (270/275). Depending on how hard you wish to make it, the Silence Echo option can be enabled as well. With these options enabled, players will experience the content in a manner more similar to its original release state.

Ravana (Extreme) just like Ravana (Hard) is split into multiple phases and follows a set rotation for most if not all phases. Note Ravana can be 1 tanked.

Ravana will switch between 3 different stances through the fight, depending on the phase, he has a Dragonfly, Scorpion and Beetle. Each stance has their own set of abilities. Prior to starting the fight, Waymark the arena with A, B, C, A being North, B East, C South and remembering unmarked is D (West), this will be used for a later mechanic.
===Dragonfly===
'''Blinding Blade''' - High damage frontal cleave.

'''The Seeing X''' - Places a barrier on 3 sides of Ravana, if you hit the barrier, you get damaged, knocked back and slowed.

'''Atma-Linga''' - Raid-wide AoE.

'''Tapasya''' = Frontal cone cleave that hits 3 times.

'''Warlord Shell''' - Shields himself, must be broken before it wears off or you will wipe.

'''Bloody Fuller/Chandrahas''' - Ultimate ability, more on this later.

'''Blinding Blade'''
* Instant cast
* Frontal AoE cleave
* Extremely high damage
* Share between 2 tanks
* If 1 tanking, turn Ravana around to share with the raid.

'''The Seeing X'''
* Ravana will cast one of the following: "The Seeing Right", "The Seeing Left" or "The Seeing Wings".
* Lasts 5 seconds.
* If The Seeing Right has been cast, move and attack from his left side.
* The Seeing Left, move and attack from his right side.
* The Seeing Wings, move and attack from his front.
* Tank should not move, rotate Ravana or attack during the barriers uptime (unless it's Seeing Wings since his front is safe).
* Remember that casters are safe, they do not need to move.

'''Tapasya'''
* Instant cast
* After first hit tank should move to the side or behind Ravana to avoid the next 2 hits.
===Scorpion===
This stance includes the main mechanics of the fight that require the entire raid to learn, know and execute perfectly or will be the phases that will wipe your group. Something to take note of is in this stance, the damage output of Ravana is increased, but his incoming damage is also increased. In this stance he not attack but only use a variety of Liberation casts, similar to Hard modes Slaughter. Each cast of Liberation is burn time, DPS should pop their cool downs during this stance. Each Liberation is a series of AoE mechanics and getting hit by any of these will result in a 3 minute Vulnerability Up debuff that stacks.

'''Prelude to Liberation'''
# When the cast ends, will do a large point blank AoE.
# Linear line AoEs that will explode after a short time.
# Random circle AoEs that cause Burn on a player that steps in them.
# 5 players get purple circle around themselves that will explode and deal damage to anyone standing in them, no one should be standing in 2 purple circles.

'''Liberation'''
# When the cast ends, will AoE everywhere except directly behind him, all players should stack behind Ravana.
# He will then jump up, and land somewhere around the edge of the arena and doing a large point blank AoE.
# Clones himself 3 times either left or right to where he lands, also creating point blank AoE.
# Charges across the arena in the order he landed. (Similar to Ifrit).
When he jumps up, all players should stack in the center, wait to see where his 1st clone lands, and run to the other side the first Ravana (e.g. If Ravana lands North, his 1st clone lands North-West, players should run North-East) and run around the edge as he charges.

'''Swift Liberation'''

About 3/4 way through the cast, 4 players will be marked with a blue sword icon, they will be marked with 1, 2, 3 and 4 swords.

# The marked players need to run to the waymarks, 1 sword icon to A, 2 sword icon to B, 3 sword icon to C and 4 sword icon to D.
# All other players should stack at D or C.
# Ravana will rush from where he his, to the player with the 1 sword icon, dealing damage to anyone in his path.
# He will continue to rush from this player to the next (who had 2 sword icon), and so on. He should be going from middle -> North -> East -> South -> West.
# An X AoE appears on the ground dealing damage and a nasty Burn debuff to anyone standing in it.
# 4 Purple circle AoEs same as in Prelude to Liberation.

As Ravana rushes to the first player, all those that wasn't marked should stack to the center. The first player should also run to D and to the center, as they will be hit by the next rush to B. As Ravana appears again to rush to B, the player at B should run towards A and to the center, and so on for each marked player.

To handle the purple circles, you should assign 2 players to A/B, B/C, C/D and D/A. These players should run to these safe segments so that several players with purple circles do not end up in the same segment. If 2 players that go to the same segment have the purple AoE, you are able to stand next to the fire AoE, this will avoid players from getting hit by 2 purple circles.

'''Final Liberation'''

There are a couple of ways to handle this Liberation in regards to the Prey mechanic which I'll go through first.

''Tactic 1 - PLD''
# Marks 2 players with Prey, make sure the tank has 1 and the other player stands next to the PLD, stack at A.
# All other players should spread around B, C and D.
# Ravana will rush at both Prey targets.
# Both Prey targets should be fully healed, shielded and any cool down you can give them.
# PLD uses Cover on the other player.

The idea here is to negate the damage of both rushes to both players at least for the first hit, if you negate the damage to 0, these players will not receive the physical up debuff.

''Tactic 2 - Actual tactic''
# Marks 2 players with Prey, does not matter if the tank has one, one goes to A, the other to C.
# All other players should go to B or D.
# Ravana will rush at both Prey targets.
# 2 players run to A and C to take Prey while first 2 run to safe spots.
# 2 new Prey players run in between A+D and C+D.
# Safe spot now in the center.

As for the full Liberation.
# Marks 2 players with Prey.
# Rushes both players dealing Physical Up debuff to them and anyone in his path.
# Use one of 2 tactics above.
# 3 players get Purple circles, everyone else can go to the center - Rushes players with Prey dealing Phys Up at same time as purple circles explode.
# Room-wide AoE with safe spot in the center.
# Room-wide AoE with safe spot around the edge - knocks back if hit. ''Important'': Ravana jumps back down for this, do not attack him, just run out as you have very little time to get out of this AoE.
===Beetle===
This is Ravana's defensive stance, his outgoing damage is decreased, but also takes less damage.

'''Pillars of Heaven''' - Raid-wide AoE knock back with damage based on proximity to Ravana.

'''Laughing Rose''' - Marks a player with a white icon, meteor-style AoE, share damage with raid.

'''Prey/{{action icon|Surpanakha}}''' - Marks a random player with Prey, they must pass Prey to the tank. Ravana will focus on the player and hit them continuously with {{action icon|Surpanakha}}, a large frontal AoE cone.

'''Rose of Conviction''' - No cast, 4 players get tethered by orbs and follows them, explodes after a short while dealing damage and inflicting Vuln Up. Players should stack by the edge before the orbs spawn and run around as a group.

'''Rose of Hate''' - Linear AoE on the main tank, avoid.
===Phase 1 - Dragonfly===
This phases lasts until 87%, all next phases will have a set rotation that carry out as the Bloodlust meter fills up indicated his next stance change (phase change).

Rotation: Blinding Blade -> The Seeing X -> Atma-Linga -> Tapasya -> Atma-Linga -> Blinding Blade -> The Seeing X -> Atma-Linga -> Repeat
===Phase 2 - Scorpion===
If all party members are fully healed, healers should be DPSing during the Prelude to Liberation cast since there is no outgoing damage. DPS should save their cooldowns for the start of this phase.

Rotation: Prelude to Liberation -> Liberation
===Phase 3 - Dragonfly + Ultimate===
1/4 way through the rotation you will need to deal with both Ravana mechanics and Gana adds that add to Ravana's Ultimate.

Rotation: Warlord Shell -> The Seeing X -> The Seeing X -> Gana Adds start -> Tapasya -> Atma-Linga -> Blinding Blade -> The Seeing X -> Atma-Linga -> Tapasya -> Atma-Linga -> Tapasya -> Blinding Blade -> The Seeing X -> Atma-Linga -> Atma-Linga -> Bloody Fuller/Chandrahas

It's a long rotation, one which the tank will need to remember while the DPS are killing the adds. Shortly after Warlord Shell has broken and 2 of The Seeing X have been done, Ravana will shout "Take wing, ye souls of war!". This starts the all familiar Primal DPS check.

'''Chandrahas and Gana Adds'''

The DPS need to kill Spirit Gana's and Moon Gana's that spawn. They should be killed in the order that they appear in. Below is a list they appear in.

# 4x Spirit Gana
# 1x Moon Gana, 1x Spirit Gana
# 2x Spirit Gana
# 1x Moon Gana, 1x Spirit Gana
# 2x Spirit Gana

The Spirit Gana can be kill quickly, the Moon Gana takes more time to kill, all ranged should stay in the center for Blinding Blade, the melee should be wary of being cleaved if they choose to engage an add in front of the boss. These adds do not need to be tanked.

After a short while, each gana will cast Falling Laughter, they must be killed before they can finish this cast otherwise they disappear and place a sword in the ground.

After the rotation above, Ravana will cast Bloody Fuller which will Fetter everyone and lift them into the air, and swords on the ground, Ravana will use to deal damage and inflict Vulnerability Up for each sword, then use Chandrahas dealing high AoE damage. The goal here is to kill every add before they finish casting Falling Laughter, and have 0 swords. You can then shield the players and this should hit for less than 1k.
===Phase 4 - Beetle===
Transition into this phase, some of the fence around the edge will be broken, locate the safe spots and be wary of knock backs.

Rotation: Pillars of Heaven -> Laughing Rose -> {{action icon|Surpanakha}} x4 -> The Rose of Conviction -> The Rose of Hate -> {{action icon|Surpanakha}} (repeat until Phase push by filling up the Bloodlust meter)

All players should run next to a wall for Pillars of Heaven, then stack on Ravana for Laughing Rose. After this, a player will be marked by Prey for {{action icon|Surpanakha}}, this player needs to run over the tank to pass Prey on to them. Remember that {{action icon|Surpanakha}} is a large frontal AoE cone, Ravana will always focus and face the marked player. After 4 hits, Rose of the Conviction immediately starts so all players should make their way to the edge of the arena (except main tank) and run around the edge either clockwise or anti-clockwise (your raid should decide beforehand.) During this time, the tank will get a frontal AoE focused on them, and more Prey/{{action icon|Surpanakha}} on them, the tank needs to rotate the boss the same way the players are running the orbs, and stop when the orbs have exploded and the raid can get back to Ravana.
===Phase 5 - Scorpion===
This is the main part of the fight, if you get past here you should be killing Ravana, otherwise these mechanics will wipe you if 1 or 2 players mess up their positions. During this phase, you should also get Level 3 Limit Break which should be used during either the start of Swift Liberation cast, or the start of Final Liberation cast since Ravana takes more damage in this phase.

Rotation: Swift Liberation -> Final Liberation

Refer to the Swift and Final Liberation descriptions at the top of the guide.
===Phase 6 - Dragonfly===
There are adds for this Dragonfly, and there is a massive increase in outgoing AoE damage, Ravana will use Atma-Linga and Blinding Blade more frequently here, so the healers need to be focused here and make sure everyone is topped up at all times.

Rotation: Warlord Shell -> The Seeing X -> Atma-Linga -> The Seeing X -> Blinding Blade -> Atma-Linga -> Tapasya -> Atma-Linga -> Blinding Blade -> Atma-Linga -> Atma-Linga -> Tapasya -> Blinding Blade -> Atma-Linga -> Blinding Blade -> Atma-Linga -> Tapasya
===Phase 7 - Beetle===
Same as previous Beetle phase, this will last until the Bloodlust meter hits 100%.

Rotation: Pillars of Heaven -> Laughing Rose -> {{action icon|Surpanakha}} x4 -> The Rose of Conviction -> The Rose of Hate -> {{action icon|Surpanakha}} x8 -> Repeat

You should be aiming to kill Ravana during this phase.
===Phase 8 - Scorpion===
In this phase, Ravana will cast 1 random Liberation. You have until the end of this Liberation cast to kill Ravana as he will enrage after.

'''Enrage'''

Ravana will enrage after Phase 8 Liberation, he casts Bloody Fuller and hits the entire raid with 12 Laughing Moons (12 adds, 12 swords, 12 laughing moons) (inflicting Vuln Up for every hit) then Chandrahas.

*Note: While those simply interested in story are advised to just queue for this content in Duty Finder, those seeking a more engaging and balanced experience should consider doing this content with a preformed group via Party Finder with the Minimum Item Level and Silence Echo options enabled. This is due to the fact that there is a massive difference between the intended minimum item level of the duty (142) and the effective maximum (270/275). With these options enabled, players will experience the content in a manner more similar to its original release state.

Owing to it's lack of an item level sync, [[The Singularity Reactor]] has become a laughably easy duty in which enemies' health can be quickly depleted and the mechanics pose almost no threat. It has three phases, although the most eventful are the first two.

==== Phase 1 ====
*'''Lightning Storm''': Four players will be marked for a small lightning circle that will hit after them and everyone around them a few seconds. Simultaneously, Thordan will put AoE circles below the other four players.
*'''Ascalon's Mercy''': Several line AoEs with gaps between them
*'''Ancient Quaga''': Moderate raidwide damage.
*'''Ascalon's Might''': Tankbuster
*'''Knights of the Round''': At 80% HP, Thordan begins summons untargettable Knights of [[the Heavens' Ward]] and has them unleash mechanics on the party
**'''Ser Janlenoux''' and '''Ser Adelphel''': Both will charge around the room, putting a {{status effect|bleed}} '''[[Bleed]]ing''' debuff on everyone in their path and leaving behind orbs of light. These will deal damage to players upon exploding. Note that this debuff can be dispelled.
**'''Ser Vellguine''': He stands outside of the platform and cast a column AoE that goes from one side to the other and can be easily avoided.
**'''Ser Hermenost''': He will pop out next to Thordan with three small platforms that need to be stood upon. A single player for each one of them will suffice. Fail to do so and the entire party will be affected with {{status effect|paralysis}} '''[[Paralysis]]'''. While the duration is not too long and this is not game-changing, your healers will thank you.
*'''The Dragon's Eye''': At 55% HP, Thordan will cast this and unlock a bigger version of '''Ascalon's Mercy''', as well as '''The Dragon's Gaze''', which inflicts a party-wide terror. As with any other gaze attack, turn your character away from him to avoid it completely.

==== Phase 2 ====
At around 15% to 10%, phase two will start. Thordan will leave the arena, letting his Knights have the spotlight. As before, all the Knights will be untargettable with rare exceptions.

*'''Ser Charibert''' and '''Ser Hermenost''': Charibert appears in the middle and casts '''Heavensflame''', creating several circle AoEs, while Hermenost repeats his towers mechanic from phase 1.
*'''Ser Zephirin''': He appears in the middle and immediately starts casting an AoE attack, '''Sacred Cross'''. This cannot be [[interrupt]]ed; however, the less health he has at the end of the cast, the weaker it hits the party.
*'''Ser Vellguine''': Without waiting for Zephirin to be dealt with, Vellguine will appear somewhere at the edge of the arena. Again, he will perform a column charge through the middle.
*'''Ser Janlenoux''' and '''Ser Adelphel''': Both appear at the same time and directly engage the party. One of them will cast Holiest of Holy at random intervals, which will deal moderate damage to every player in the room. Something else to look out for is Rapid Sever, which will hit the tank for quite a bit of damage in a short span of time.
*'''Ser Ignasse''': He smashes the ground at a point on the edge of the arena. Damage taken is reduced the farther away you are from it, like the imperial airship crashes in the Ultima Weapon.
*'''Ser Paulecrain''' and '''Ser Haumeric''': Paulecrain places blue ice markers on players' heads, akin to those in the [[Shiva]] encounter. Try to drop them on the edges if possible, as they inflict {{status effect|heavy}} '''[[Heavy]]''' on players in contact with the frozen ground they create. Paulecrain has a column attack that is targeted on a player, who will take less damage the closer they are to the source, like [[Anchag]]'s in [[Amdapor Keep (Hard)]] or [[Byblos]]' in [[the Great Gubal Library]].
*'''Ser Grinnaux''': He will cast four or five black AoE circles on the ground that will grow in size over time. In addition to the previous frozen circles, finding a safe spot can be difficult.
*'''Ser Noudenet''': His attack resembles [[Xande]]'s meteorfall mechanic in [[Syrcus Tower]]; he will summon comet circles that will drop comets/meteors after a short while. There are four comet circles on the sides, and a meteor circle in the middle. Burn them before they drop their gifts.
*'''Ser Guerrique''': At the same time as dealing with the comets, Guerrique will appear in the middle, casting a progressive round AoE that proceeds in phases. Move into the next or previous row of rocks to avoid being hit.

After that, Thordan will reappear and repeatedly knock back all players with '''Light of Ascalon''' as the entire Heavens' Ward teleport to their positions, then will raise his sword and use '''Ultimate End''' with his Knights. The damage of this spell depends on how long it took to overwhelm the Knights and how many players died to their attacks.

==== Phase 3 ====
After '''Ultimate End''', Thordan will have used up all his energy and the Knights will not return to aid him. In addition, Thordan can only perform autoattacks and will have a {{status effect|Damage Down}} '''[[Damage Down]]''' debuff, so just DPS Thordan until he dies.

Trials

CrazyDudeFF: Corrected the minimum item level for The Bowl of Embers (Extreme)

''See also: [[Dungeons]], [[Raids]], [[Deep Dungeon]], [[Field Operations]], [[Variant Dungeons]], [[Criterion Dungeons]]''
==Introduction==
[[File:Trial.png|25px|link=]] '''Trials''' are encounters where adventurers fight together against extremely powerful creatures. Each trial consists of a single boss fight (a few are broken up into two parts). When the boss is defeated, players are rewarded with story progression, tokens or rare items. A few early trials require a [[Party#Light Party|light party]] of 4 players while most others need a [[Party#Full Party|full party]] of 8.

The lists are broken into 2 sections for each expansion: story-mode '''Normal and Hard Trials''', and '''High-end (Extreme and Unreal) Trials'''. Players are expected by the developers to be able to clear all story-mode trials, with the High-end section being significantly more difficult completely optional content.
{{TOC limit|3}}
===Normal and Hard Trials===
'''Normal''' difficulty are fought by four players. '''Hard''' difficulty trials are fought by eight players, but are not significantly more difficult than "Normal" trials. After Lv. 50, the distinction between Normal and Hard difficulty trials is removed, and all base difficulty trials past that point are fought by a full party of eight players.

====Participation====
All Normal difficulty trials are unlocked as part of the A Realm Reborn Main Scenario quests. Hard difficulty trials can be unlocked as part of Main Scenario quests in each expansion, or through optional quests at the level cap of each expansion. Both Normal and Hard difficulty trials can be completed using [[Duty Finder]] matchmaking.

====Rewards====
Normal and hard trials typically do not provide item rewards, with a few exceptions. Completion of the daily [[Duty Roulette|Trials Roulette]] will reward experience, Gil, and tomestones, depending on the player's level.

===Extreme Trials===
'''Extreme''' difficulty trials are usually fought by eight players against a significantly more powerful version of the boss from the base difficulty trial (the exception is [[The Great Hunt (Extreme)]], which is fought by four players). Some extreme trials are denoted as '''Minstrel's Ballad''', which are reserved for bosses that had particular importance to the main story. All Extreme bosses have a time limit in which they must be defeated or they will wipe the party with an enrage ability. Completion of extreme trials is not required for Main Scenario Quest progression.

====Participation====
Extreme trials can be unlocked from various quests after completing the base difficulty trial. '''In North American and European data centers, most players use [[Party Finder]] to practice and complete extreme trials instead of Duty Finder matchmaking.'''

For trials not released in the current expansion, the most common way of completing them is to use an [[Unrestricted Party]] (i.e., with level sync disabled) for an easy completion or loot farming, as there is no tangible benefit to completing with Level Sync enabled.

====Rewards====
Most extreme trials drop [[Endgame Gear Guide|weapon coffers]] that can be used to obtain high [[Item Level|item level]] weapons depending on the current job. In addition, most extreme trials rarely to uncommonly drop [[Desynthesis_Rewards#Trial_Crafting_Materials|special crafting materials]], which can be used to craft [[Chocobo Barding|chocobo bardings]], [[Housing Items|housing decorations]], and [[Extreme Trial Glamour Weapons|weapons]] with special particle effects. Note that the glamour weapons are released several major patches after the trial. and not all trials have associated weapons. The crafting materials and most glamour weapons can also be sold on the [[Market Board]].

Most extreme trials can also rarely drop a [[mounts|mount]]. The drop rate of the mount increases once the extreme trial is no longer new. Collecting each extreme trial mount in an expansion will unlock a quest that rewards an exclusive mount.

To mitigate poor luck on loot rolls, all extreme trials since ''Heavensward'' ([[patch 3.0]]) will reward each party member with 1-2 [[:Category:Trial Totems|totems]], depending on the trial, per completion, which can be exchanged for [[weapons]] (requiring 10 totems) and in a later patch, the mount (requiring 99 totems).

The equipment rewards structure for extreme trials varies depending on the patch it is released:
* Expansion launch (x.0) - Two extreme trials. One trial rewards weapons and the other trial rewards accessories, both of which are 10 item levels higher than equipment obtained from the newest uncapped tomestones.
* x.1 - One extreme trial, rewarding weapons that are 15 item levels higher than the previous (x.0) trial weapons but 10 item levels below the weapons obtainable from the current Savage raids released in x.05.
* x.2 - One extreme trial, rewarding weapons that are 20 item levels higher than the previous (x.1) trial weapons, 5 item levels higher than the newly added crafted weapons in x.2, but 20 item levels below the weapons obtainable from the current Savage raids released in x.2.
* x.3 - One extreme trial, rewarding weapons that are 10 item levels higher than the previous (x.2) trial weapons but 10 item levels below the weapons obtainable from the current Savage raids.
* x.4 - One extreme trial, rewarding weapons that are 20 item levels higher than the previous (x.3) trial weapons, 5 item levels higher than the newly added crafted weapons in x.4, but 20 item levels below the weapons obtainable from the current Savage raids released in x.4.
* x.5 - One extreme trial, rewarding weapons that are 10 item levels higher than the previous (x.4) trial weapons but 10 item levels below the weapons obtainable from the current Savage raids.

Additional extreme trials (e.g., [[The Great Hunt (Extreme)]], [[Memoria Misera (Extreme)]]) may be released in some patches, but these provide different rewards compared to the usual structure.

===Unreal Trials===
'''Unreal''' difficulty trials are part of the [[Faux Hollows]] feature and are mechanically identical to older Extreme trials but have been manually re-scaled to the current level cap to provide an authentic challenge. Unreal trials have a strict item level sync, preventing players from out-gearing the encounters as in Extreme trials. Usually, one Unreal trial is available per major patch since they were introduced in [[Patch 5.3]]. Once the next patch is released, a new unreal trial will become available and older unreal trials become inaccessible.

====Participation====
The current unreal trial can be unlocked by completing the quest [[Fantastic Mr. Faux]] and the story-mode version of the trial. This quest does not need to be repeated when a new unreal trial is released.

====Rewards====
Unreal trials do not directly provide item rewards. Players may complete the current unreal trial to unlock one attempt ("telling") at the [[Faux Hollows]] minigame, which reward a currency that can be exchanged for exclusive mounts, minions, and glamour items. Players may also earn a "retelling" from the first Faux Hollows game, which will allow them to repeat the trial for a second attempt at Faux Hollows. Players may earn one telling and one retelling per week.

*Note: While those simply interested in story are advised to just queue for this content in Duty Finder, those seeking a more engaging and balanced experience should consider doing this content with a preformed group via Party Finder with the Minimum Item Level option enabled. This is due to the fact that there is a massive difference between the intended minimum item level of the duty (50) and the effective maximum (130/135). With this option enabled, players will experience the content in a manner more similar to its original release state.

This fight has 3 distinct phases, during which Gilgamesh uses the following moves and mechanics.

====<big>Phase 1</big>====
=====<big>Abilities</big>=====
* '''Bitter End''': a frontal cone AoE attack that has fairly long cast time. It can be easily avoided by moving out of the way.
* '''Pradamante'''<ref>This attack name is both a pun on '''Bradamante''' ([[Nael van Darnus]]' gunhalberd) and a reference to [https://finalfantasy.fandom.com/wiki/Excalipoor_(weapon) Excalipoor].</ref>: Unmarked instant cast AoE on a random player. Deals moderate damage to all players caught in it.
* '''Toad''': A random player will be turned into a [[File:Toad icon1.png|link=]] '''Toad''' for 20 seconds causing "''Transformed into a toad and unable to execute actions.''". Will be chased by [[Enkidu (Boss)|Enkidu]], who will deal heavy damage to the player if they land a hit. Kite [[Enkidu (Boss)|Enkidu]] around until the debuff wears off.
* '''Minimum''': Player will be [[File:Minimum icon1.png|link=]] '''mini'd''' for 20 seconds with a {{status effect|heavy}} '''[[Heavy]]''' debuff. Gilgamesh will chase them and use '''Bitter End''' repeatedly.
* '''Rocket Punch''': Deals moderate damage and applies a [[File:Confused icon1.png|link=]] '''Confusion''' debuff, which will cause the afflicted player to attack the nearest party member until it falls off or '''they are healed to full'''.
* '''Grovel''': Used around ~50%. After the long cast, he will do a small AoE centered on himself.
* '''Bomb''': Used around ~40%. Does a small AoE centered on himself and runs away. Signals the start of '''Phase 2'''.

Top off players afflicted with '''Confusion''' so they will stop attacking other players.

====<big>Phase 2</big>====
Waves of adds spawn between the two boss rooms; just pull them all together and nuke them down.

====<big>Phase 3</big>====
Uses all abilities from Phase 1 except '''Grovel''' and '''Bomb'''. All status effects can now target multiple players, from 2-8.
=====<big>Abilities</big>=====
* '''Whirlwind Slash''': AoE centered on the boss that deals moderate damage.
* '''Giga Jump''': Marks a random player and after ~6 seconds leaps towards them, dealing damage to any players around them.
* '''Whirlwinds''': Multiple Whirlwinds will spawn on the ground and remain for some time. Touching them causes them to explode and deal damage in an AoE around them.

Healers should keep regens up as it is possible for them to be repeatedly Toaded.<br>
This phase will last the longest due to the damage decrease from Minimum affecting multiple players.<br>
Avoid the Whirlwinds, especially while Toaded so you aren't killed by the chicken while you are knocked into the air.

====<big>Strategy</big>====
-----
Players with a high-level character (about level 70 or higher) may want to attempt the fight alone at their current level by using the "[[Unrestricted Party]]" duty finder option rather than waiting a long time for a duty finder match. The quest will still progress.

When the battle begins players should pull the boss to the outdoor area outside of the cave. By doing this the party will have more room to maneuver. Throughout the boss fight, melee players should avoid Dragon's Breath and Ram's Breath when possible. They should also avoid staying behind the boss and triggering Scorpion's Sting. The Breath attacks can also be [[interrupt]]ed and {{status effect|stun}} '''[[stun]]ned'''. Ranged damage dealers and healers should spread out across the battle field. When the boss uses Cacophony on a player, he or she should move away from other players.

* {{item icon|Esuna}} is critical for clearing debuffs! (This was less annoying before [[Shadowbringers]] when [[Scholar]] could use [[Selene]]'s AoE-cleanse ability {{action icon|Fey Caress}}.)

When Chimera begins to use Ram's Voice, all melee players should move out of the melee range of the boss. When Chimera begins to use Dragon's Voice, all ranged players should move to the melee range of the boss.

Players should always be aware and move out of the Ram's Keeper, a large circular ground indicator, as soon as possible.

*Note: While those simply interested in a quick clear are advised to just queue for this content in Duty Finder, those seeking a more engaging and balanced experience should consider doing this content with a preformed group via Party Finder with the Minimum Item Level and Silence Echo options enabled. This is due to the fact that there is a massive difference between the intended minimum item level of the duty (52) and the effective maximum (130/135). With these options enabled, players will experience the content in a manner more similar to its original release state.

====Abilities====
'''Dissever''' is an instant attack that deals a small amount of damage.

'''Triumvirate''' is an frontal attack that deals a massive amount of damage. Damage is reduced based on the number of players hit.

'''Mean Thrash''' is a rear AoE cone attack that deals a large amount of damage to all players hit. It is triggered by being behind Hydra.

'''White Breath''' is a frontal AoE breath attack that deals large amount of damage and and inflicts the debuff {{status effect|infirmity}} '''[[Infirmity]]'''. Infirmity reduces healing done on target.

'''Radiant Breath''' is all frontal AoE breath attack that deals a large amount of damage and inflicts the debuff {{status effect|infirmity}} '''[[Infirmity]]''' to all targets at medium range.

'''Ball of Ice''' is an ice attack that targets a random player. It deals a medium amount of damage, inflicts the debuff {{status effect|heavy}} '''[[Heavy]]''' to all targets hit. Additionally it leaves a circular patch of ice on the ground.

'''Ball of Fire''' is a fireball that targets a random player. It deals a large amount of damage and inflicting the DoT {{status effect|burns}} '''[[Burns]]'''. Additionally, it leaves a circular patch of fire on the ground.

'''Fear Itself''' is an AoE attack that deals a large amount of damage and inflicts the debuff {{status effect|hysteria}} '''[[Hysteria]]''' to all players outside of the melee range. Hysteria causes affected players to run in fear. Hydra will use this ability after running to the middle of room.

====Adds====
Wyvern can inflict the DoT {{status effect|poison}} '''[[Poison]]''' on its target and can use the ability Bravery to increase Hydra's damage if it is left alive for an extension period of time.

====Strategy====
During the boss fight, Triumvirate can destroy a tank in 1 hit. Because the ability deals less damage to multiple targets, your party should have 2 tanks standing in front of the boss. Melee classes should also avoid its White Breath attack. Players should stand in either melee range or long range because Radiant Breath deals massive damage to all targets in medium range.

*[[Healer]]s can use {{item icon|Esuna}} to remove debuffs, however the {{status effect|infirmity}} '''[[Infirmity]]''' cannot be cleansed.

Players should avoid the Ball of Ice and Fire attacks and stay away from the patches of ice and fire on the ground. When Hydra runs to the center of the room, it will cast Fear Itself. Players should stack on top of the Hydra to avoid getting damaged and feared. Players should tank the Hydra near the wall so it will be apparent to everyone when it runs to the center of the room.

When Hydra spawns the the Wyvern, players should kill it ASAP to avoid allowing it to buff the Hydra.

===[[File:Aggressive difficulty r6.png|link=]] King of Moogles: [[Good King Moggle Mog XII]]===
*Note: While those simply interested in story are advised to just queue for this content in Duty Finder, those seeking a more engaging and balanced experience should consider doing this content in a preformed group via Party Finder with the Minimum Item Level and Silence Echo options enabled. This is due to the fact that there is a massive difference between the intended minimum item level of the duty (54) and the effective maximum (130/135). With these options enabled, players will experience the content at a reasonable difficulty.

Owing to it's lack of an ilvl sync, enemies' health can be downed quickly and thus not all mechanics listed below may be experienced. Initially, the Mooglesguard must be defeated before the boss, Good King Moggle Mog XII, appears. Each of the moogles has a job class and name to tell them apart:

*[[Whiskerwall Kupdi Koop]] - Paladin
*[[Woolywart Kupqu Kogi]] - Ranger
*[[Pukla Puki the Pomburner]] - Black Mage
*[[Pukna Pako the Tailturner]] - Thief
*[[Furryfoot Kupli Kipp]] - White Mage (uses {{BLU}} [[Blue Mage]] [[spell]] '''{{action icon|Pom Cure}}''')
*[[Ruffletuft Kupta Kapa]] - Warrior
*[[Puksi Piko the Shaggysong]] - Bard
===Phase 1===
Moogles will gradually pop up over time, with only Kupdi Koop present at the start. He uses '''Spinning Mogshield''', a point-blank AoE, but has nothing else noteable. Immediately after Kupdi Koop is defeated, Kupqu Kogi and Kupta Kapa will spawn. Kupqu Kogi casts '''Mograin of death''', a damage AoE cast on every player, who should spread out to avoid overlapping, while Kupta Kapa casts '''1000 Kuporize Swipe''', a cone frontal AoE. Once they are defeated, Puksi Riko and Kupli Kipp will appear and attack. Puksi Riko casts '''Moogleday Night fever''', a line AoE, while Kupli Kipp casts '''Pom Holy''', a small damage AoE that may force players to begin dancing for a few seconds.

The last two Mooglesguard, Pukla Puki and Pukna Pako, will then drop down into the arena. Pukla Puki casts '''Pom Meteor''', which summons 4 meteors signaled by falling Moogle heads towards red circles. Players should go into these circles to prevent the Moogle heads from hitting the ground and inflicting unavoidable damage. Meanwhile, Pukna Pako will cast a tankbuster, '''Moogle Thrust''', so tanks should prepare with mitigation abilities. Once they are defeated, all the Mooglesguard will get up, now untargettable, and summon the boss, Good King Moogle Mog XII. The King casts '''Memento Moogle''', inflicting hard unavoidable damage, while the Mooglesguard disappear and leave you to fight the King.
===Phase 2===
The King will be the only enemy targettable, and defeating him will the end the trial, but this phase will have many mechanics to look out for:
*'''Good King's Decree''': Throughout the fight, the King will summon his Mooglesguard, still untargettable, to bombard the raid with their abilities shown in Phase 1, only much more serious.
** '''First Decree''': The King first summons Pukna Pako and Kupqu Kogi, and the former casts '''Pom Bog''', creating a poison AoE in the middle of the arena. Meanwhile, the King casts '''Mog Stone IV''', a stack marker, but be prepared to spread out afterwards, as Kupqu Kogi then casts '''Mograin of death'''. After that, the King casts '''Pom Holy'''.
** '''Second Decree''': The King next summons Kupdi Koop, Puksi Piko, and Kupta Kapa. Aside from Puksi Piko, the King and the other two Mooglesguard begin casting massive AoEs named '''Moogle-Go-Round''', soon covering the entire arena in AoEs. Stay on the Moogle who begin casting '''Moogle-Go-Round''' next, then move to the King when he finishes casting to have a safe spot. Once the AoEs are done, Puksi Piko will cast '''Moogleday Night fever''' in the safe spot, forcing players to run to safety. After that, the King casts '''Twin Pom Meteor''', the first time players will ever see a tankbuster stack marker, meaning the tanks should stack together to survive it, and then '''Pom Holy''' once more.
** '''Third Decree''': Lastly, the King summons Kupli Kipp and Pukla Puki. After Pukla Puki casts '''Pom Meteor''' again, the King casts '''Mog Comet''', summoning circle AoEs that being chasing random players around. Once that is done, players should go inside the circles and mitigate the Moogle Heads. Kupli Kipp then casts '''Pom Stone III''', covering the ciruclar middle in a AoE, and then the edges and middle. Once the middle AoE has gone, go there to avoid the second part of '''Pom Stone III'''. The King will immedietly cast '''Mog Stone IV''', followed in rapid succession by '''Mog Creation''', a Line Aoe, so players should spread out to avoid being hit once the stack is dealt with.

After that, the King casts '''Pom Holy''', as well as a tankbuster, '''1000 Kuponze Charge'''. The King then repeats the '''Good King's Decree''' cycle as shown above until he is defeated.

==Lore==
Legend holds that, in a time long forgotten, mooglekind abided in the heavens as loyal servants of the gods.

However, a war of deific proportions would erupt, triggered by a feud over a single goblet of wine. Growing weary of the conflict, the reigning moogle monarch, Good King Moggle Mog XII, resolved to lead his people to the realm of mortals in secret, that they might again know a life of peace.

Alas, the distance to the land below proved too great for little moogle wings. After much deliberation, it was decided that the journey must be made by rope, the longest that has ever been woven. So it was that the king grasped onto one end of this lifeline as his subjects, one after the next, half clambered, half slid their way to the Promised Land. In this manner all the moogles were able to arrive at their destination, whole of body and joyous of spirit. That is, all of them save for Good King Moggle Mog XII, who had not the means to lower himself.

Mourning their lost king and touched by his sacrifice, the moogles have since abstained from naming a successor to the crown. Even now, they hold fast to the belief that their beloved monarch will one day return before them in all his might and majesty.

*Note: While those simply interested in story are advised to just queue for this content in Duty Finder, those seeking a more engaging and balanced experience should consider doing this content with a preformed group via Party Finder with the Minimum Item Level and Silence Echo options enabled. This is due to the fact that there is a massive difference between the intended minimum item level of the duty (57) and the effective maximum (130/135). With these options enabled, players will experience the content in a manner more similar to its original release state.

'''Rock Buster''' is an instant melee attack that deals a moderate amount of damage to [[Titan]]'s current target.

'''Landslide''' is a frontal column AoE that deals a moderate amount of damage and knocks back all targets hit.

'''Tumult''' is a stomp attack that deals a small amount of damage to all players. It is used up to seven times in a row depending on Titan's current HP.

'''Geocrush''' is a leaping AoE attack. When Titan jumps into the air, a giant, red, circular ground indicator will appear at the perimeter of the boss room. After a few seconds, Titan slams down into the center of the room, dealing damage to all players based on how close you are to the center. The ability also breaks off the perimeter of the boss platform. Players at the edge of the boss room will take moderate damage, whereas players close to the center will take heavy damage.

'''Weight of the Land''' is an AoE ability that spawns circular pools of sand under four random players. The swirls explode after a few seconds and deal heavy damage to all targets hit.

'''Bomb Boulders''' is an ability that spawns numerous bombs around the boss room that will eventually explode in the order they dropped, dealing heavy damage to nearby players.

'''Rock Throw''' is an ability that spawns a clock-like symbol underneath a random player. After a few seconds, the marked player will be encased within a [[Granite Gaol]]. Any player trapped in this manner cannot move, attack, or use any abilities. However, other players can attack the Gaol to break the player free. After escaping a Gaol, the victim will have a cleansable {{status effect|damage down}} [[Damage Down]] debuff.

'''Earthen Fury''' is Titan's ultimate ability. If Titan's Heart has not been destroyed before the end of the phase, Titan will instantly kill all players. However, if the heart is destroyed in time, Titan will do a moderate amount of damage to all players instead.

'''{{action icon|Mountain Buster (Blue Mage)}}''' is a frontal attack that deals heavy damage to Titan's target.

====Rotations====
'''Phase 1:''' Landslide -> Tumult -> (Repeat)

'''Phase 2:''' Weight of the Land -> Landslide -> Tumult -> (Repeat)

'''Phase 3:''' Landslide -> Weight of the Land -> Bomb Boulders -> Landslide -> Weight of the Land -> Rock Throw -> Tumult -> (Repeat)

'''Phase 4:''' Rock Throw -> Landslide -> Weight of the Land -> Tumult -> Rock Throw -> Landslide -> Weight of the Land -> Earthen Fury

'''Phase 5:''' Mountain Buster -> Tumult -> Weight of the Land -> Bomb Boulders + Landslide -> Mountain Buster -> Weight of the Land -> Rock Throw -> Landslide -> (Repeat)
----
====Strategy====
1. You can instant-die if you get pushed off the ledge. This mostly happens when he uses his "Landslide" attack (rectangular AoE in front of him, will push you off if you get hit) -- consider it a one-hit-KO move and avoid at all cost!

2. During "Geocrush" (boss jumps up in the air, disappears, then slams the ground) you don't risk being pushed off the ledge from the shockwave itself. However, the arena will be broken beyond (outside) the red outline that will appear near the edge of the battlefield. Therefore, stay inside the red circle (so you don't fall off), but try to stay as close to the red line (inside its perimeter!) as possible to minimize damage.

3. When the rock boulders spawn, simply ignore them (stay away to avoid damage, but don't try to destroy them -- they are just a waste of dps).

====Phase 1: 100% - 90% HP====
Landslide -> Tumult -> (Repeat)

During the first phase, an invisible wall prevents players from falling over the edge, and Titan himself will use Landslide and Tumult on repeat. When Titan is at about 90% [[HP]], he will leap into the air and use Geocrush. Players should move to the perimeter of the boss room as far from the center as possible. However, players should remain within the red circle indicator, as that portion of the arena will soon drop into the lava below.

====Phase 2: 90% - 75% HP====
Weight of the Land -> Landslide -> Tumult -> (Repeat)

At this point, the wall at the edge of the boss room is now gone. As a result, players can be knocked off the platform via attacks such as Landslide. Weight of the Land is the new ability used by Titan in this phase. Players should move out of the swirling sand traps that appear on the ground. At about 75% HP, Titan will leap into the air and use Geocrush once again. Players should move to the perimeter of the boss room, just before the red ground indicator. Geocrush signals the end of Phase 2.

====Phase 3: 75% - 55% HP====
Landslide -> Weight of the Land -> Bomb Boulders -> Landslide -> Weight of the Land -> Rock Throw -> Tumult -> (Repeat)

Bomb Boulders and Rock Throw are the new abilities used by Titan in this phase. Bomb Boulders spawn bombs around the arena that eventually explode in the order they were dropped. Rock Throw places a clock-like symbol at the feet of a random player. A few seconds later, it encases that player within a Granite Gaol, incapacitating the individual. Other players can destroy the Gaol to free the trapped player (who will receive a cleansable debuff - {{status effect|damage down}} [[Damage Down]]).

Bomb Boulders can spawn in two different patterns. In the first pattern, bombs spawn at the edge of the room, then at the center. The bombs at the edge of the room will explode first, then the bombs in the center will explode. To avoid, players should first move to the center of the room to avoid the exploding bombs at the edge of the room, then move to the empty spot at the edge of the room to avoid the bombs in the center. In the other pattern, the bombs spawn in the center area and corner areas of the room. Players should move away from the center and corners of the room to avoid explosions.

====Phase 4: Titan's Heart====
Rock Throw -> Landslide -> Weight of the Land -> Tumult -> Rock Throw -> Landslide -> Weight of the Land -> Earthen Fury

Players will need to destroy Titan's Heart before he can finish his ability rotation, as failure to do so will result in a wipe. Titan will not use Boulder Bombs in this phase.

Titan will use Rock Throw twice in this phase. Players should kill the Granite Gaol and free the player for the first Rock Throw. You should ignore the Granite Gaol and DPS down Titan's Heart for the second Rock Throw. Do not forget to cleanse the {{status effect|damage down}} [[Damage Down]].

Use [[Limit Break]] to kill the Heart if your party does not have enough DPS.

After killing the Heart, players should break the player out of the Granite Gaol. Healers should cast AoE heals in preparation for Earthen Fury.

====Phase 5: 55% - 0% HP====
Mountain Buster -> Tumult -> Weight of the Land -> Bomb Boulders + Landslide -> Mountain Buster -> Weight of the Land -> Rock Throw -> Landslide -> (Repeat)

During the fifth and final phase, Titan gains the Mountain Buster ability, which deals heavy damage to the tank.

As Titan's HP drops, he will cast Tumult up to 7 in a row.

In addition to the two Bomb Boulders spawning patterns from phase 3, Titan will have a brand new pattern. In this pattern, 9 bombs are dropped in 3 columns to form a 3 X 3 formation. The 3 bombs in the middle column will explode first, thus players should move either north or south to the 2 columns of the bombs on the side. After the bombs in the center have exploded, players should return to the middle of the boss room to avoid the bombs on the sides.

With these options enabled, players will experience the content in a manner more similar to its original release state.

Tank should pull [[Garuda]] to the far north edge of the room. Rest of the party members should spread out and stay away from the stone pillars so her Friction and Wicked Wheel will not damage the pillars. Tanks should avoid Slipstream by running out of her line of sight.

Garuda will vanish, teleport and use either Mistral Song or Mistral Shriek once every 60 seconds or so. Players need to break line of sight by hiding behind the pillars whenever she uses either of those abilities.

When Garuda vanishes the first time, she will reappear at the far north edge of the room and cast Mistral Song. Players should break her line of sight by hiding behind the stone pillars. After about 60 seconds she will vanish and appear in the center of the room. She will then cast Mistral Shriek. Players need to hide behind the pillars and break line of sight with her.

After each Mistral Song or Mistral Shriek, Garuda will spawn a group of adds called Razor Plumes. Razor Plumes must be killed immediately. If they are left alive they will damage the stone pillars.

*Use AoE abilities to kill Plumes.

When Garuda is at about 50% HP, she will use her ultimate ability, Aerial Blast. The ability deals massive amount of damage to your entire party. The amount of damage dealt depends on the number of stone pillars kept alive.

*Keep stone pillars alive to reduce the damage of Garuda's ult.

Phase 2 begins after Garuda uses her ult.
===Abilities===
'''Downburst''' is an instant frontal cleave that deals a moderate amount of damage to all players in front of Garuda.

'''Friction''' is an instant ranged attack that will damages a random player and all players near him. It also damages the stone pillars.

'''Wicked Wheel''' is an instant AoE attack that damages all players around Garuda for moderate amount of damage. It also damages stone pillars.

'''Slipstream''' is a frontal column spell that deals large amount of damage and stuns the targets hit. While it does not show up as a ground indicator, it can still be dodged.

'''Mistral Song''' allows Garuda to vanish and reappear on one side of the room, firing a blast of wind through the area. The ability does very heavy damage to all targets in her line of sight. Players need to hide behind stone pillars to avoid the damage.

'''Mistral Shriek''' allows Garuda to vanish and reappear in the middle of the room, firing a blast of wind through the area. The ability does very heavy damage to all targets in her line of sight. Players need to hide behind stone pillars to avoid the damage.

'''Aerial Blast''' is Garuda's signature ability. At around half health, she teleports to the center of the room and casts this ability. The damage you and your party members take depends on how damaged the stone pillars are. The more damaged the stone pillars are, the more damage you will take. Phase 2 starts after she uses this ability.

===Adds===
'''Razor Plume''' is summoned by Garuda in groups. While they will only deal a small amount of damage to the players, these Plumes will damage the stone pillars if they are kept alive.

===<big><u>Phase 2</u></big>===
In the second phase, 3 tornadoes (Great Whirlwind) spawns in the boss room. Players caught within the tornadoes will take massive amounts of damage. The tank should shift from the north position into a north-west position, while the ranged classes all stack on the wall directly to the West. You should end up in this arrangement. This will allow the Great Whirlwinds to appear harmlessly around everyone, as well as create a section for the adds to be tanked in.

After a short time, Garuda will vanish and re-spawns at the south part of the room along with 2 adds, Suparna and Chirada. These adds have similar abilities as Garuda. Tanks should tank these adds away from rest of the party to avoid Slipstream hitting everyone. One of the adds will have a green beam linked to Garuda while the other add will have a red beam linked to Garuda. Players must kill the add with the green beam ASAP because the add will heal Garuda when it's alive. Players should use cooldowns if necessary. Afterwards players should kill the add with red beam. The off-tank should grab the add with the red beam and tank it facing away from the group at this position. The main tank can also pick this add up if you're only running with one tank. This will be the heaviest damage during the encounter. One healer should focus on keeping the main tank alive through Garuda's increased damage while the other focuses on the large amount of AoE healing needed from Friction and Wicked Wheel hitting so many players.

Once both adds are brought down, the tornadoes will start to fade. As soon as the northern whirlwind fades, the tank needs to run along the wall to the north-east side of the room. The whirlwinds will start to rotate, forcing the group to move clockwise around the room. During this time, a group of Razor Plumes and a single Satin Plume will spawn. DPS should kill the Satin Plume as quickly as possible to avoid the sleep debuff. The Razor Plumes are easy to heal through, so ignore them in favor of more DPS on Garuda. Once you reach the East side of the room, the whirlwinds will fade completely and everyone should move to the middle of the room to prepare for Eye of the Storm.

While in the middle of the room, Garuda will vanish again, reappearing in the South with Suparna and Chirada spawning on the East and West sides of the room. Each of these adds should be tanked on the edge they come in at, with the main tank on Garuda (south), the off-tank on the add with a red beam (east or west) and all the DPS on the green beam add (East or West). This leaves the healers either in the middle or on the North edge, free to heal up everyone.

Once the adds have been finished off and Eye of the Storm fades, all the ranged players should move directly South, with the tank should move to the south-west position. More tornadoes will spawn, which will start to rotate as more plumes spawn. Once again focus the Satin Plume down and ignore the rest. You will rotate around the room until you're roughly in the same position you started Phase 2 at. She will vanish, spawning one last set of adds. Use [[Meteor]], the level 3 [[Limit Break|limit break]], to nearly kill both of them instantly and finish off Garuda. If she is not almost dead at this point, either DPS is too low overall or the add with the green beam has not been killed quickly enough each time and healed Garuda too much.

===Abilities===
'''Downburst''' is an instant frontal cleave that deals a moderate amount of damage to all players in front of Garuda.

'''Friction''' is an instant ranged attack that will damages a random player and all players near him. It also damages the stone pillars.

'''Wicked Wheel''' is an instant AoE attack that damages all players around Garuda for moderate amount of damage. It also damages stone pillars.

'''Slipstream''' is a frontal column spell that deals large amount of damage and stuns the targets hit. While it does not shot up as a ground indicator, it can still be dodged.

'''Great Whirlwind''' is a giant tornado that deals massive amount of damage to any players caught within.

'''Eye of the Storm''' is ability used by Garuda at the start of the second phase. This ability creates a whirlwind with an opening at the center of the room. Players must stay in the center of the room to avoid the extremely heavy damage from the swirling wind. The effect persists for the rest of the fight.

===Adds===
'''Razor Plume''' deals small amount of damage to random players.

'''Satin Plume''' casts the debuff [[Sleep]] on the entire party.

'''Suparna''' has similar abilities as Garuda. It can link to Garuda with a red beam which increases Garuda's damage. It can also link to Garuda with a green beam which heals her. Additionally it will cast Mistral Shriek if left alive for too long.

'''Chirada''' has similar abilities as Garuda. It can link to Garuda with a red beam which increases Garuda's damage. It can also link to Garuda with a green beam which heals her. Additionally it will cast Mistral Shriek if left alive for too long.

Add priority:

Satin Plume > Razor Plume

Chirada or Suparna with green beam > Chirada or Suparna with red beam

*Note: While those simply interested in the story are advised to just queue for this content in Duty Finder, those seeking a more engaging and balanced experience should consider doing this content with a preformed group via Party Finder with the Minimum Item Level and Silence Echo options enabled. This is due to the fact that there is a massive difference between the intended minimum item level of the duty (49) and the effective maximum (130/135). With these options enabled, players will experience the content in a manner more similar to its original release state.
*As of [[patch 2.1]] the strategy for this fight has changed. Eruption can no longer be stunned indefinitely. The new format allows stun to work three times before full resistance is built for 1 minute or so. Make sure if you are stunning Ifrit, that no other players are using stuns, and that you only stun eruption.
===Phase 1===
For the first phase, non-tank players should not stand in front of Ifrit. This is due to several of his abilities:
* '''Incinerate''' is an instant frontal breath attack that deals a moderate amount of damage to all targets in front of Ifrit.
* '''Vulcan Burst''' is an instant attack that deals small amount of damage to all players near Ifrit. Also causes knockback.
* '''{{Action icon|Eruption}}''' is an ability that appears as red crackling glow under a random player. After a few seconds the ground will erupt, dealing heavy damage to all players within.
* '''Crimson Cyclone''' is an ability used by Ifrit. He stands at the edge of the boss room, in a sprinting pose for a few seconds. Ifrit then dashes forward, dealing heavy damage to all players caught in his path.

Tanks should tank the boss at the edge of the boss room so ranged damage dealers and casters do not get hit by Vulcan Burst. Players should interrupt Ifrit's Eruption with stuns as often as possible. When Ifrit uses Crimson Cyclone, his charging attack, players should not be in front of the boss.

At about 3/4 [[HP]], phase 2 begins.
===Phase 2===
During phase 2, Ifrit will gain two new abilities:
* '''Sear''' is an instant attack that deals small amount of damage to all players near Ifrit.
* '''Radiant Plume''' is an ability that places glowing red circles on the ground. The circles will explode and deal heavy damage to all targets within after a few seconds.

Plumes in this phase are outer plumes then inner plumes. Followed by Eruption then Cyclone.
===Phase 3===
At roughly 50% hp. Ifrit will summon 4 nails. The nails are top priority. After a period of time Ifrit will perform his signature ability '''Hellfire'''. If any nails remain, Hellfire will instantly kill all players, but if they are all destroyed Hellfire will instead only do heavy damage to all players. It is highly recommended to gather up when Hellfire occurs but not on top of the main tank. If the healers are slow at healing this damage, vulcan burst could follow doing damage to all in range.

It is recommended that any BLM's or SMN's in the party use the Limit Break on the Nails to make quick work of them. Although not a necessity, it can provide breathing space to a party lacking good DPS.

As of [[patch 2.1]], Ifrit's Infernal Nails have had a drastic upgrade to damage nullification from Limit Breaks. Pre 2.1 a caster dps Limit Break 2 or better would destroy the nails outright. Now in 2.1 the nails will still have around 20-30% hp. If you do not have caster dps limit break, have the melee dps down the first nail. One dps should advance to the second nail and Limit break. Destroy the 3rd nail. Limit break should be up again at this point for the 4th nail (if not, it should be really close). Limit break then finish off the fourth nail.
===Phase 4===
After Hellfire has been cast, Ifrit enters phase 4 where he has all the abilities from phase 2 excluding Hellfire.

The order of attacks is:
*Outer Radiant Plumes
*Inner Radiant Plumes
*Eruption (should be stunned)
*Zone wide Radiant plumes (safe spot is behind Ifrit)
*Followed by Dashes. Left Ifrit always dashes first. (3 Ifrits)

'''Lion's Breath''' is an instant frontal cone attack which deals small amount of damage

'''Dragon's Breath''' is a frontal cone AoE attack that deals moderate amount of damage and inflicts the debuff {{status effect|paralysis}} '''[[Paralysis]]'''.

'''Ram's Breath''' is a frontal cone AoE attack that deals moderate amount of damage and inflicts the debuff {{status effect|heavy}} '''[[Heavy]]'''.

'''Scorpion's Sting''' is a rear cone AoE attack that deals moderate amount of damage and inflicts the DoT {{status effect|poison}} '''[[Poison]]'''.

'''Ram's Keeper''' is a circular AoE ice attack that spawns underneath a random player. The attack deals heavy damage and inflicts the debuffs {{status effect|frostbite}} '''[[Frostbite]]''' and {{status effect|heavy}} '''[[Heavy]]''' to all targets hit. Additionally it leaves a large icy patch on the ground.

'''Gelid Charge''' is an instant ability that increases the damage of Dhorme Chimera's frost attacks and makes Ram's Breath instant.

'''Static Charge''' is an instant ability that increases the damage of Dhorme Chimera's thunder attacks and makes Dragon's Breath instant.

<sup>[1]</sup> {{BLU}} [[Blue Mage]]s can learn these spells.

====<big>Strategy</big>====
-----
Players with a high-level character (about level 70 or higher) may want to attempt the fight alone at their current level by using the "[[Unrestricted Party]]" duty finder option rather than waiting a long time for a duty finder match. The quest will still progress.

When the battle begins players should pull the boss to the outdoor area outside of the cave. By doing this the party will have more room to maneuver. Throughout the boss fight, melee players should avoid Dragon's Breath and Ram's Breath when possible. They should also avoid staying behind the boss and triggering Scorpion's Sting. The Breath attacks can also be [[interrupt]]ed and {{status effect|stun}} '''[[stun]]ned'''. Ranged damage dealers and healers should spread out across the battle field. When the boss uses Cacophony on a player, he or she should move away from other players.

* {{item icon|Esuna}} is critical for clearing debuffs! (This was less annoying before [[Shadowbringers]] when [[Scholar]] could use [[Selene]]'s AoE-cleanse ability {{action icon|Fey Caress}}.)

When Chimera begins to use Ram's Voice, all melee players should move out of the melee range of the boss. When Chimera begins to use Dragon's Voice, all ranged players should move to the melee range of the boss.

Players should always be aware and move out of the Ram's Keeper, a large circular ground indicator, as soon as possible.

===[[File:Aggressive difficulty r6.png|link=]] King of Moogles: [[Good King Moggle Mog XII]]===
*Note: While those simply interested in story are advised to to just queue for this content in Duty Finder, those seeking a more engaging and balanced experience should consider doing this content in a preformed group via Party Finder with the Minimum Item Level and Silence Echo options enabled. This is due to the fact that there is a massive difference between the intended minimum item level of the duty (54) and the effective maximum (130/135). With these options enabled, players will experience the content at a reasonable difficulty.

Owing to it's lack of an ilvl sync, enemies' health can be downed quickly and thus not all mechanics listed below may be experienced. Initially, the Mooglesguard must be defeated before the boss, Good King Moggle Mog XII, appears. Each of the moogles has a job class and name to tell them apart:

*[[Whiskerwall Kupdi Koop]] - Paladin
*[[Woolywart Kupqu Kogi]] - Ranger
*[[Pukla Puki the Pomburner]] - Black Mage
*[[Pukna Pako the Tailturner]] - Thief
*[[Furryfoot Kupli Kipp]] - White Mage (uses {{BLU}} [[Blue Mage]] [[spell]] '''{{action icon|Pom Cure}}''')
*[[Ruffletuft Kupta Kapa]] - Warrior
*[[Puksi Piko the Shaggysong]] - Bard
===Phase 1===
Moogles will gradually pop up over time, with only Kupdi Koop present at the start. He uses '''Spinning Mogshield''', a point-blank AoE, but has nothing else noteable. Immediately after Kupdi Koop is defeated, Kupqu Kogi and Kupta Kapa will spawn. Kupqu Kogi casts '''Mograin of death''', a damage AoE cast on every player, who should spread out to avoid overlapping, while Kupta Kapa casts '''1000 Kuporize Swipe''', a cone frontal AoE. Once they are defeated, Puksi Riko and Kupli Kipp will appear and attack. Puksi Riko casts '''Moogleday Night fever''', a line AoE, while Kupli Kipp casts '''Pom Holy''', a small damage AoE that may force players to begin dancing for a few seconds.

The last two Mooglesguard, Pukla Puki and Pukna Pako, will then drop down into the arena. Pukla Puki casts '''Pom Meteor''', which summons 4 meteors signaled by falling Moogle heads towards red circles. Players should go into these circles to prevent the Moogle heads from hitting the ground and inflicting unavoidable damage. Meanwhile, Pukna Pako will cast a tankbuster, '''Moogle Thrust''', so tanks should prepare with mitigation abilities. Once they are defeated, all the Mooglesguard will get up, now untargettable, and summon the boss, Good King Moogle Mog XII. The King casts '''Memento Moogle''', inflicting hard unavoidable damage, while the Mooglesguard disappear and leave you to fight the King.
===Phase 2===
The King will be the only enemy targettable, and defeating him will the end the trial, but this phase will have many mechanics to look out for:
*'''Good King's Decree''': Throughout the fight, the King will summon his Mooglesguard, still untargettable, to bombard the raid with their abilities shown in Phase 1, only much more serious.
** '''First Decree''': The King first summons Pukna Pako and Kupqu Kogi, and the former casts '''Pom Bog''', creating a poison AoE in the middle of the arena. Meanwhile, the King casts '''Mog Stone IV''', a stack marker, but be prepared to spread out afterwards, as Kupqu Kogi then casts '''Mograin of death'''. After that, the King casts '''Pom Holy'''.
** '''Second Decree''': The King next summons Kupdi Koop, Puksi Piko, and Kupta Kapa. Aside from Puksi Piko, the King and the other two Mooglesguard begin casting massive AoEs named '''Moogle-Go-Round''', soon covering the entire arena in AoEs. Stay on the Moogle who begin casting '''Moogle-Go-Round''' next, then move to the King when he finishes casting to have a safe spot. Once the AoEs are done, Puksi Piko will cast '''Moogleday Night fever''' in the safe spot, forcing players to run to safety. After that, the King casts '''Twin Pom Meteor''', the first time players will ever see a tankbuster stack marker, meaning the tanks should stack together to survive it, and then '''Pom Holy''' once more.
** '''Third Decree''': Lastly, the King summons Kupli Kipp and Pukla Puki. After Pukla Puki casts '''Pom Meteor''' again, the King casts '''Mog Comet''', summoning circle AoEs that being chasing random players around. Once that is done, players should go inside the circles and mitigate the Moogle Heads. Kupli Kipp then casts '''Pom Stone III''', covering the ciruclar middle in a AoE, and then the edges and middle. Once the middle AoE has gone, go there to avoid the second part of '''Pom Stone III'''. The King will immedietly cast '''Mog Stone IV''', followed in rapid succession by '''Mog Creation''', a Line Aoe, so players should spread out to avoid being hit once the stack is dealt with.

After that, the King casts '''Pom Holy''', as well as a tankbuster, '''1000 Kuponze Charge'''. The King then repeats the '''Good King's Decree''' cycle as shown above until he is defeated.

==Lore==
Legend holds that, in a time long forgotten, mooglekind abided in the heavens as loyal servants of the gods.

However, a war of deific proportions would erupt, triggered by a feud over a single goblet of wine. Growing weary of the conflict, the reigning moogle monarch, Good King Moggle Mog XII, resolved to lead his people to the realm of mortals in secret, that they might again know a life of peace.

Alas, the distance to the land below proved too great for little moogle wings. After much deliberation, it was decided that the journey must be made by rope, the longest that has ever been woven. So it was that the king grasped onto one end of this lifeline as his subjects, one after the next, half clambered, half slid their way to the Promised Land. In this manner all the moogles were able to arrive at their destination, whole of body and joyous of spirit. That is, all of them save for Good King Moggle Mog XII, who had not the means to lower himself.

Mourning their lost king and touched by his sacrifice, the moogles have since abstained from naming a successor to the crown. Even now, they hold fast to the belief that their beloved monarch will one day return before them in all his might and majesty.

*Note: While those simply interested in story are advised to to simply queue for this content in Duty Finder, those seeking a more engaging and balanced experience should consider doing this content with a preformed group via Party Finder with the Minimum Item Level and Silence Echo options enabled. This is due to the fact that there is a massive difference between the intended minimum item level of the duty (57) and the effective maximum (130/135). With these options enabled, players will experience the content in a manner more similar to its original release state.

'''Rock Buster''' is an instant melee attack that deals a moderate amount of damage to [[Titan]]'s current target.

'''Landslide''' is a frontal column AoE that deals a moderate amount of damage and knocks back all targets hit.

'''Tumult''' is a stomp attack that deals a small amount of damage to all players. It is used up to seven times in a row depending on Titan's current HP.

'''Geocrush''' is a leaping AoE attack. When Titan jumps into the air, a giant, red, circular ground indicator will appear at the perimeter of the boss room. After a few seconds, Titan slams down into the center of the room, dealing damage to all players based on how close you are to the center. The ability also breaks off the perimeter of the boss platform. Players at the edge of the boss room will take moderate damage, whereas players close to the center will take heavy damage.

'''Weight of the Land''' is an AoE ability that spawns circular pools of sand under four random players. The swirls explode after a few seconds and deal heavy damage to all targets hit.

'''Bomb Boulders''' is an ability that spawns numerous bombs around the boss room that will eventually explode in the order they dropped, dealing heavy damage to nearby players.

'''Rock Throw''' is an ability that spawns a clock-like symbol underneath a random player. After a few seconds, the marked player will be encased within a [[Granite Gaol]]. Any player trapped in this manner cannot move, attack, or use any abilities. However, other players can attack the Gaol to break the player free. After escaping a Gaol, the victim will have a cleansable {{status effect|damage down}} [[Damage Down]] debuff.

'''Earthen Fury''' is Titan's ultimate ability. If Titan's Heart has not been destroyed before the end of the phase, Titan will instantly kill all players. However, if the heart is destroyed in time, Titan will do a moderate amount of damage to all players instead.

'''{{action icon|Mountain Buster (Blue Mage)}}''' is a frontal attack that deals heavy damage to Titan's target.

'''Phase 1:''' Landslide -> Tumult -> (Repeat)

'''Phase 2:''' Weight of the Land -> Landslide -> Tumult -> (Repeat)

'''Phase 3:''' Landslide -> Weight of the Land -> Bomb Boulders -> Landslide -> Weight of the Land -> Rock Throw -> Tumult -> (Repeat)

'''Phase 4:''' Rock Throw -> Landslide -> Weight of the Land -> Tumult -> Rock Throw -> Landslide -> Weight of the Land -> Earthen Fury

'''Phase 5:''' Mountain Buster -> Tumult -> Weight of the Land -> Bomb Boulders + Landslide -> Mountain Buster -> Weight of the Land -> Rock Throw -> Landslide -> (Repeat)
----
====Strategy====
1. You can instant-die if you get pushed off the ledge. This mostly happens when he uses his "Landslide" attack (rectangular AoE in front of him, will push you off if you get hit) -- consider it a one-hit-KO move and avoid at all cost!

2. During "Geocrush" (boss jumps up in the air, disappears, then slams the ground) you don't risk being pushed off the ledge from the shockwave itself. However, the arena will be broken beyond (outside) the red outline that will appear near the edge of the battlefield. Therefore, stay inside the red circle (so you don't fall off), but try to stay as close to the red line (inside its perimeter!) as possible to minimize damage.

3. When the rock boulders spawn, simply ignore them (stay away to avoid damage, but don't try to destroy them -- they are just a waste of dps).

====Phase 1: 100% - 90% HP====
Landslide -> Tumult -> (Repeat)

During the first phase, an invisible wall prevents players from falling over the edge, and Titan himself will use Landslide and Tumult on repeat. When Titan is at about 90% [[HP]], he will leap into the air and use Geocrush. Players should move to the perimeter of the boss room as far from the center as possible. However, players should remain within the red circle indicator, as that portion of the arena will soon drop into the lava below.

====Phase 2: 90% - 75% HP====
Weight of the Land -> Landslide -> Tumult -> (Repeat)

At this point, the wall at the edge of the boss room is now gone. As a result, players can be knocked off the platform via attacks such as Landslide. Weight of the Land is the new ability used by Titan in this phase. Players should move out of the swirling sand traps that appear on the ground. At about 75% HP, Titan will leap into the air and use Geocrush once again. Players should move to the perimeter of the boss room, just before the red ground indicator. Geocrush signals the end of Phase 2.

====Phase 3: 75% - 55% HP====
Landslide -> Weight of the Land -> Bomb Boulders -> Landslide -> Weight of the Land -> Rock Throw -> Tumult -> (Repeat)

Bomb Boulders and Rock Throw are the new abilities used by Titan in this phase. Bomb Boulders spawn bombs around the arena that eventually explode in the order they were dropped. Rock Throw places a clock-like symbol at the feet of a random player. A few seconds later, it encases that player within a Granite Gaol, incapacitating the individual. Other players can destroy the Gaol to free the trapped player (who will receive a cleansable debuff - {{status effect|damage down}} [[Damage Down]]).

Bomb Boulders can spawn in two different patterns. In the first pattern, bombs spawn at the edge of the room, then at the center. The bombs at the edge of the room will explode first, then the bombs in the center will explode. To avoid, players should first move to the center of the room to avoid the exploding bombs at the edge of the room, then move to the empty spot at the edge of the room to avoid the bombs in the center. In the other pattern, the bombs spawn in the center area and corner areas of the room. Players should move away from the center and corners of the room to avoid explosions.

====Phase 4: Titan's Heart====
Rock Throw -> Landslide -> Weight of the Land -> Tumult -> Rock Throw -> Landslide -> Weight of the Land -> Earthen Fury

Players will need to destroy Titan's Heart before he can finish his ability rotation, as failure to do so will result in a wipe. Titan will not use Boulder Bombs in this phase.

Titan will use Rock Throw twice in this phase. Players should kill the Granite Gaol and free the player for the first Rock Throw. You should ignore the Granite Gaol and DPS down Titan's Heart for the second Rock Throw. Do not forget to cleanse the {{status effect|damage down}} [[Damage Down]].

Use [[Limit Break]] to kill the Heart if your party does not have enough DPS.

After killing the Heart, players should break the player out of the Granite Gaol. Healers should cast AoE heals in preparation for Earthen Fury.

====Phase 5: 55% - 0% HP====
Mountain Buster -> Tumult -> Weight of the Land -> Bomb Boulders + Landslide -> Mountain Buster -> Weight of the Land -> Rock Throw -> Landslide -> (Repeat)

During the fifth and final phase, Titan gains the Mountain Buster ability, which deals heavy damage to the tank.

As Titan's HP drops, he will cast Tumult up to 7 in a row.

In addition to the two Bomb Boulders spawning patterns from phase 3, Titan will have a brand new pattern. In this pattern, 9 bombs are dropped in 3 columns to form a 3 X 3 formation. The 3 bombs in the middle column will explode first, thus players should move either north or south to the 2 columns of the bombs on the side. After the bombs in the center have exploded, players should return to the middle of the boss room to avoid the bombs on the sides.

*Note: While those simply interested in story are advised to to simply queue for this content in Duty Finder, those seeking a more engaging and balanced experience should consider doing this content with a preformed group via Party Finder with the Minimum Item Level and Silence Echo options enabled. This is due to the fact that there is a massive difference between the intended minimum item level of the duty (52) and the effective maximum (130/135). With these options enabled, players will experience the content in a manner more similar to its original release state.

Tank should pull [[Garuda]] to the far north edge of the room. Rest of the party members should spread out and stay away from the stone pillars so her Friction and Wicked Wheel will not damage the pillars. Tanks should avoid Slipstream by running out of her line of sight.

Garuda will vanish, teleport and use either Mistral Song or Mistral Shriek once every 60 seconds or so. Players need to break line of sight by hiding behind the pillars whenever she uses either of those abilities.

When Garuda vanishes the first time, she will reappear at the far north edge of the room and cast Mistral Song. Players should break her line of sight by hiding behind the stone pillars. After about 60 seconds she will vanish and appear in the center of the room. She will then cast Mistral Shriek. Players need to hide behind the pillars and break line of sight with her.

After each Mistral Song or Mistral Shriek, Garuda will spawn a group of adds called Razor Plumes. Razor Plumes must be killed immediately. If they are left alive they will damage the stone pillars.

*Use AoE abilities to kill Plumes.

When Garuda is at about 50% HP, she will use her ultimate ability, Aerial Blast. The ability deals massive amount of damage to your entire party. The amount of damage dealt depends on the number of stone pillars kept alive.

*Keep stone pillars alive to reduce the damage of Garuda's ult.

Phase 2 begins after Garuda uses her ult.
===Abilities===
'''Downburst''' is an instant frontal cleave that deals a moderate amount of damage to all players in front of Garuda.

'''Friction''' is an instant ranged attack that will damages a random player and all players near him. It also damages the stone pillars.

'''Wicked Wheel''' is an instant AoE attack that damages all players around Garuda for moderate amount of damage. It also damages stone pillars.

'''Slipstream''' is a frontal column spell that deals large amount of damage and stuns the targets hit. While it does not show up as a ground indicator, it can still be dodged.

'''Mistral Song''' allows Garuda to vanish and reappear on one side of the room, firing a blast of wind through the area. The ability does very heavy damage to all targets in her line of sight. Players need to hide behind stone pillars to avoid the damage.

'''Mistral Shriek''' allows Garuda to vanish and reappear in the middle of the room, firing a blast of wind through the area. The ability does very heavy damage to all targets in her line of sight. Players need to hide behind stone pillars to avoid the damage.

'''Aerial Blast''' is Garuda's signature ability. At around half health, she teleports to the center of the room and casts this ability. The damage you and your party members take depends on how damaged the stone pillars are. The more damaged the stone pillars are, the more damage you will take. Phase 2 starts after she uses this ability.

===Adds===
'''Razor Plume''' is summoned by Garuda in groups. While they will only deal a small amount of damage to the players, these Plumes will damage the stone pillars if they are kept alive.

===<big><u>Phase 2</u></big>===
In the second phase, 3 tornadoes (Great Whirlwind) spawns in the boss room. Players caught within the tornadoes will take massive amounts of damage. The tank should shift from the north position into a north-west position, while the ranged classes all stack on the wall directly to the West. You should end up in this arrangement. This will allow the Great Whirlwinds to appear harmlessly around everyone, as well as create a section for the adds to be tanked in.

After a short time, Garuda will vanish and re-spawns at the south part of the room along with 2 adds, Suparna and Chirada. These adds have similar abilities as Garuda. Tanks should tank these adds away from rest of the party to avoid Slipstream hitting everyone. One of the adds will have a green beam linked to Garuda while the other add will have a red beam linked to Garuda. Players must kill the add with the green beam ASAP because the add will heal Garuda when it's alive. Players should use cooldowns if necessary. Afterwards players should kill the add with red beam. The off-tank should grab the add with the red beam and tank it facing away from the group at this position. The main tank can also pick this add up if you're only running with one tank. This will be the heaviest damage during the encounter. One healer should focus on keeping the main tank alive through Garuda's increased damage while the other focuses on the large amount of AoE healing needed from Friction and Wicked Wheel hitting so many players.

Once both adds are brought down, the tornadoes will start to fade. As soon as the northern whirlwind fades, the tank needs to run along the wall to the north-east side of the room. The whirlwinds will start to rotate, forcing the group to move clockwise around the room. During this time, a group of Razor Plumes and a single Satin Plume will spawn. DPS should kill the Satin Plume as quickly as possible to avoid the sleep debuff. The Razor Plumes are easy to heal through, so ignore them in favor of more DPS on Garuda. Once you reach the East side of the room, the whirlwinds will fade completely and everyone should move to the middle of the room to prepare for Eye of the Storm.

While in the middle of the room, Garuda will vanish again, reappearing in the South with Suparna and Chirada spawning on the East and West sides of the room. Each of these adds should be tanked on the edge they come in at, with the main tank on Garuda (south), the off-tank on the add with a red beam (east or west) and all the DPS on the green beam add (East or West). This leaves the healers either in the middle or on the North edge, free to heal up everyone.

Once the adds have been finished off and Eye of the Storm fades, all the ranged players should move directly South, with the tank should move to the south-west position. More tornadoes will spawn, which will start to rotate as more plumes spawn. Once again focus the Satin Plume down and ignore the rest. You will rotate around the room until you're roughly in the same position you started Phase 2 at. She will vanish, spawning one last set of adds. Use [[Meteor]], the level 3 [[Limit Break|limit break]], to nearly kill both of them instantly and finish off Garuda. If she is not almost dead at this point, either DPS is too low overall or the add with the green beam has not been killed quickly enough each time and healed Garuda too much.

===Abilities===
'''Downburst''' is an instant frontal cleave that deals a moderate amount of damage to all players in front of Garuda.

'''Friction''' is an instant ranged attack that will damages a random player and all players near him. It also damages the stone pillars.

'''Wicked Wheel''' is an instant AoE attack that damages all players around Garuda for moderate amount of damage. It also damages stone pillars.

'''Slipstream''' is a frontal column spell that deals large amount of damage and stuns the targets hit. While it does not shot up as a ground indicator, it can still be dodged.

'''Great Whirlwind''' is a giant tornado that deals massive amount of damage to any players caught within.

'''Eye of the Storm''' is ability used by Garuda at the start of the second phase. This ability creates a whirlwind with an opening at the center of the room. Players must stay in the center of the room to avoid the extremely heavy damage from the swirling wind. The effect persists for the rest of the fight.

===Adds===
'''Razor Plume''' deals small amount of damage to random players.

'''Satin Plume''' casts the debuff [[Sleep]] on the entire party.

'''Suparna''' has similar abilities as Garuda. It can link to Garuda with a red beam which increases Garuda's damage. It can also link to Garuda with a green beam which heals her. Additionally it will cast Mistral Shriek if left alive for too long.

'''Chirada''' has similar abilities as Garuda. It can link to Garuda with a red beam which increases Garuda's damage. It can also link to Garuda with a green beam which heals her. Additionally it will cast Mistral Shriek if left alive for too long.

Add priority:

Satin Plume > Razor Plume

Chirada or Suparna with green beam > Chirada or Suparna with red beam

*Note: While those simply interested in the story are advised to to simply queue for this content in Duty Finder, those seeking a more engaging and balanced experience should consider doing this content with a preformed group via Party Finder with the Minimum Item Level and Silence Echo options enabled. This is due to the fact that there is a massive difference between the intended minimum item level of the duty (49) and the effective maximum (130/135). With these options enabled, players will experience the content in a manner more similar to its original release state.
*As of [[patch 2.1]] the strategy for this fight has changed. Eruption can no longer be stunned indefinitely. The new format allows stun to work three times before full resistance is built for 1 minute or so. Make sure if you are stunning Ifrit, that no other players are using stuns, and that you only stun eruption.
===Phase 1===
For the first phase, non-tank players should not stand in front of Ifrit. This is due to several of his abilities:
* '''Incinerate''' is an instant frontal breath attack that deals a moderate amount of damage to all targets in front of Ifrit.
* '''Vulcan Burst''' is an instant attack that deals small amount of damage to all players near Ifrit. Also causes knockback.
* '''{{Action icon|Eruption}}''' is an ability that appears as red crackling glow under a random player. After a few seconds the ground will erupt, dealing heavy damage to all players within.
* '''Crimson Cyclone''' is an ability used by Ifrit. He stands at the edge of the boss room, in a sprinting pose for a few seconds. Ifrit then dashes forward, dealing heavy damage to all players caught in his path.

Tanks should tank the boss at the edge of the boss room so ranged damage dealers and casters do not get hit by Vulcan Burst. Players should interrupt Ifrit's Eruption with stuns as often as possible. When Ifrit uses Crimson Cyclone, his charging attack, players should not be in front of the boss.

At about 3/4 [[HP]], phase 2 begins.
===Phase 2===
During phase 2, Ifrit will gain two new abilities:
* '''Sear''' is an instant attack that deals small amount of damage to all players near Ifrit.
* '''Radiant Plume''' is an ability that places glowing red circles on the ground. The circles will explode and deal heavy damage to all targets within after a few seconds.

Plumes in this phase are outer plumes then inner plumes. Followed by Eruption then Cyclone.
===Phase 3===
At roughly 50% hp. Ifrit will summon 4 nails. The nails are top priority. After a period of time Ifrit will perform his signature ability '''Hellfire'''. If any nails remain, Hellfire will instantly kill all players, but if they are all destroyed Hellfire will instead only do heavy damage to all players. It is highly recommended to gather up when Hellfire occurs but not on top of the main tank. If the healers are slow at healing this damage, vulcan burst could follow doing damage to all in range.

It is recommended that any BLM's or SMN's in the party use the Limit Break on the Nails to make quick work of them. Although not a necessity, it can provide breathing space to a party lacking good DPS.

As of [[patch 2.1]], Ifrit's Infernal Nails have had a drastic upgrade to damage nullification from Limit Breaks. Pre 2.1 a caster dps Limit Break 2 or better would destroy the nails outright. Now in 2.1 the nails will still have around 20-30% hp. If you do not have caster dps limit break, have the melee dps down the first nail. One dps should advance to the second nail and Limit break. Destroy the 3rd nail. Limit break should be up again at this point for the 4th nail (if not, it should be really close). Limit break then finish off the fourth nail.
===Phase 4===
After Hellfire has been cast, Ifrit enters phase 4 where he has all the abilities from phase 2 excluding Hellfire.

The order of attacks is:
*Outer Radiant Plumes
*Inner Radiant Plumes
*Eruption (should be stunned)
*Zone wide Radiant plumes (safe spot is behind Ifrit)
*Followed by Dashes. Left Ifrit always dashes first. (3 Ifrits)

{{#ev:youtube|F1ubbYUA82Y|350|right|The Singularity Reactor Guide}}
Owing to it's lack of an item level sync, [[The Singularity Reactor]] has become a laughably easy duty in which enemies' health can be quickly depleted and the mechanics pose almost no threat. It has three phases, although the most eventful are the first two.

==== Phase 1 ====
*'''Lightning Storm''': Four players will be marked for a small lightning circle that will hit after them and everyone around them a few seconds. Simultaneously, Thordan will put AoE circles below the other four players.
*'''Ascalon's Mercy''': Several line AoEs with gaps between them
*'''Ancient Quaga''': Moderate raidwide damage.
*'''Ascalon's Might''': Tankbuster
*'''Knights of the Round''': At 80% HP, Thordan begins summons untargettable Knights of [[the Heavens' Ward]] and has them unleash mechanics on the party
**'''Ser Janlenoux''' and '''Ser Adelphel''': Both will charge around the room, putting a {{status effect|bleed}} '''[[Bleed]]ing''' debuff on everyone in their path and leaving behind orbs of light. These will deal damage to players upon exploding. Note that this debuff can be dispelled.
**'''Ser Vellguine''': He stands outside of the platform and cast a column AoE that goes from one side to the other and can be easily avoided.
**'''Ser Hermenost''': He will pop out next to Thordan with three small platforms that need to be stood upon. A single player for each one of them will suffice. Fail to do so and the entire party will be affected with {{status effect|paralysis}} '''[[Paralysis]]'''. While the duration is not too long and this is not game-changing, your healers will thank you.
*'''The Dragon's Eye''': At 55% HP, Thordan will cast this and unlock a bigger version of '''Ascalon's Mercy''', as well as '''The Dragon's Gaze''', which inflicts a party-wide terror. As with any other gaze attack, turn your character away from him to avoid it completely.

==== Phase 2 ====
At around 15% to 10%, phase two will start. Thordan will leave the arena, letting his Knights have the spotlight. As before, all the Knights will be untargettable with rare exceptions.

*'''Ser Charibert''' and '''Ser Hermenost''': Charibert appears in the middle and casts '''Heavensflame''', creating several circle AoEs, while Hermenost repeats his towers mechanic from phase 1.
*'''Ser Zephirin''': He appears in the middle and immediately starts casting an AoE attack, '''Sacred Cross'''. This cannot be [[interrupt]]ed; however, the less health he has at the end of the cast, the weaker it hits the party.
*'''Ser Vellguine''': Without waiting for Zephirin to be dealt with, Vellguine will appear somewhere at the edge of the arena. Again, he will perform a column charge through the middle.
*'''Ser Janlenoux''' and '''Ser Adelphel''': Both appear at the same time and directly engage the party. One of them will cast Holiest of Holy at random intervals, which will deal moderate damage to every player in the room. Something else to look out for is Rapid Sever, which will hit the tank for quite a bit of damage in a short span of time.
*'''Ser Ignasse''': He smashes the ground at a point on the edge of the arena. Damage taken is reduced the farther away you are from it, like the imperial airship crashes in the Ultima Weapon.
*'''Ser Paulecrain''' and '''Ser Haumeric''': Paulecrain places blue ice markers on players' heads, akin to those in the [[Shiva]] encounter. Try to drop them on the edges if possible, as they inflict {{status effect|heavy}} '''[[Heavy]]''' on players in contact with the frozen ground they create. Paulecrain has a column attack that is targeted on a player, who will take less damage the closer they are to the source, like [[Anchag]]'s in [[Amdapor Keep (Hard)]] or [[Byblos]]' in [[the Great Gubal Library]].
*'''Ser Grinnaux''': He will cast four or five black AoE circles on the ground that will grow in size over time. In addition to the previous frozen circles, finding a safe spot can be difficult.
*'''Ser Noudenet''': His attack resembles [[Xande]]'s meteorfall mechanic in [[Syrcus Tower]]; he will summon comet circles that will drop comets/meteors after a short while. There are four comet circles on the sides, and a meteor circle in the middle. Burn them before they drop their gifts.
*'''Ser Guerrique''': At the same time as dealing with the comets, Guerrique will appear in the middle, casting a progressive round AoE that proceeds in phases. Move into the next or previous row of rocks to avoid being hit.

After that, Thordan will reappear and repeatedly knock back all players with '''Light of Ascalon''' as the entire Heavens' Ward teleport to their positions, then will raise his sword and use '''Ultimate End''' with his Knights. The damage of this spell depends on how long it took to overwhelm the Knights and how many players died to their attacks.

==== Phase 3 ====
After '''Ultimate End''', Thordan will have used up all his energy and the Knights will not return to aid him. In addition, Thordan can only perform autoattacks and will have a {{status effect|Damage Down}} '''[[Damage Down]]''' debuff, so just DPS Thordan until he dies.
