Can I just say I love how each boss has a unique theme fitting them this time around? I don't think we've had a raid tier where that was the case ever before this.
Im happy they did this. This way we won't get as tired out to quickly from just 1 Ost. For example "Scream" was an S Tier, but got annoying since it played in p5-p7.
So glad you made the comment on the third fight that melees are in for a rude awakening with uptime if they don’t play smarter. I can’t tell you how many times I saw melees (besides MNK) not using their ranged GCD to continue doing damage while dodging mechanics for these bosses. Savage is going to filter some melee DPS mains who are used to having full uptime strats available to them

Merging with monsters from the game is a very cool concept (I see you FF XVI), if we had an Ixion, we should absolutely bet on later fights. Behemoths, Malboros? Oh, boy, this is fun!
I think you’re on the money, but I’m trying to think of what other iconic monster merges we might get. Coblyns? Adamantoise? Spriggan? I feel like we might get a Red Chocobo too
3rd fight will be a nightmare to prog, cause every time I see the tankbuster "Knuckle Sandwich", I'll think about that one WKUK sketch and start laughing.
Fights are really fun, colorful I dont do savage yet but I can imagine it will be even crazier. I love the music, I dont like the look of the gear though The 4th boss was funny, we thought we had it and then she just kept firing those lasers, I guess Healers have to heal now like they wanted to
Already the multihit AOE if you don't have a full tome/EX gear can kill a lot of peoples even under reprisal if the healers slacks off, but yeah, that's for more causals/DF groups Tanks Mitigations and Healers potency are cranked up because otherwise wouldn't have been possible with the sheer ammount of damage dealt, EXs for that start really well too for me (havn't done EW ones and that's the first time I run current tier EXs and I'm loving it)
I find it hilarious people in this VC complaining about how weeb all the fights are...when they are playing one of if not the most weeb MMO of all time. Also the second boss is literally an idol so that's why the music, boss, and stage was the way it was.
It's funny listening to a bunch of terminally online incel anime fans that rarely if ever get laid pretend to be disgusted by the "weeb shit" while they're playing FFXIV knowing full well they have anime posters on their walls.
Took him long enough to comment on "Give It All" :P Totally my favorite song from 14 now. This entire raid tier IMO, shits all over the others - they're difficult but no unfair, the fights only feel kinda long now because we're under geared but otherwise well paced, and again, that song is just pure Shounen 🔥🔥🔥 I am here for it. I just pray I'm not getting my hopes up for Echoes of Vana'diel, but Arcadion has set the bar pretty damn high. This expansion is KILLING IT with the combat content, like damn. I might even give Savage a try for once, I usually don't bother but I really like this tier (except maybe the Bomb King lol)
Funny that someone mentionned Punch Out... I made a Little Mac glam while leveling MNK and forgot about the raids coming out this tuesday... so when they dropped and went in as MNK, it just clicked in my head that I was basically playing Punch Out, just wiht a lot more buttons XD
Not really tho. Your character at that point should chuckle at whatever they try to do. The whole "feral soul" thing is like, nothing to the person who met the literal creators of the world ( and killed many of them )
With lower dps the last stack happens multiple times until the boss dies. If the run is going bad then the party wipes by 3rd or 4th laser coz healers couldnt keep up with heals. Still glad to see even vets get vul stacks and happy that i managed to avoid a lot of them in my blind run as well.
I was so waiting for the M4 gap closer fail. I did that as SAM the first time not knowing the platform gets destroyed and gap closed immediately after the orange disappeared and fell into the abyss lol. Xeno just outright fell in.
Come to think of it, Ixion has been in multiple raid fights in one way or another. First we saw it at Eden 5 where it presented itself as " half of Ramuh". Then, on Eden 12, you can see the same boss in the background. Now, we have him once again as a fused creature 😂
It would be great if they made the heart mechanic constant for the full fight in Savage, and you have to choose who to take what mechs while waiting for others hearts to time out.
I'm just happy every single fight had different music. They didn't do the same thing Pandemonium did where they just recycled 1 song for 3 fights per tier quickly making u sick of the fights.
I did all 4 pulled the second the ring went down. What i found is typically one wipe then 80% had it down on all 4. But there are some that are just so bad at mechanics that have been in the game for over 8 years lol
I just love that this is NORMAL. They 100% ramped up the difficulty this expansion. Also, that final cannon shot is a soft enrage. She just keeps spamming it until you kill her.
The speaker actually comment when someoone died or fuck a mech it's actually based
He also hypes on LB use,res and when you eat mechanics but survive
@@Blutwind it gives me the old pokemon stadium vibes. and im kinda into it.
he comments on getting rezzed too, and death
It could have been a coincidence, but in one of the fights I did two people dashed out of an attack, including me, and the announcer said "nice dodge"
The commentator reacts to the match. If you dodge, if your hit, if you die, ring out, lb3 s. It's pretty cool
Xeno silently vibing to M2's OST. It's ok brother just embrace that it's the coldest song of the expansion so far
Can I just say I love how each boss has a unique theme fitting them this time around? I don't think we've had a raid tier where that was the case ever before this.
first 8 Eden i believe we have a unique song for each boss (even though it's kinda remix from trial song)
@@teteamaster tbh i think they were remixes of FF8 songs , this is the 1st time i think we have had Origonal music on every fight

It's quite funny that Xeno fell for every hole mechanic at least once.

You should turn on voice acting. It adds so much to the fights.
Yeah, the announcer also pokes back when people get down or falls out of the ring which just makes it so worth it to have on.
From Horse Daddy in Eden to Horse Mommy here in Arcadion
Arcadion has been hella fun so far.
2nd raid music is called : Bee My Honey if you want to buy it in market
