I want Susano and Ravana to: A) Fight each other in a battle for surpreme glory B) Have a tag-team match against the Warrior of Light C) Both of those things at the same time
Sure there's no lyrics, but on the other hand this guy talks quite a bit and sounds like a primal having fun as opposed to being all serious. He actually congratulates you for surviving his ult unlike most.
I love the bit that kicks in during the Active Time Maneuver. Really emphasises the intensity of the battle, plus the sheer fact that someone's holding off a sword the size of a tower while it plays makes it all the more badass.
*W I L D A N D P U R E A N D F O R E V E R F R E E* *wipes* Y'know, I ain't even mad. Like Ravana, I love this fight so much that wipes don't bother me in the least.
I remember the first time I tried this fight, during Stormblood launch. Me and several friends were in Discord enjoying the content, when we finally made it here. It was so innovative. The graphics, the animations of the boss; blocking the huge sword as a tank was incredible and the music was just astounding. Amidst laughs and chatter I lost track of time so easily, trying to process all that was going on... it was unbelievable. When the final phase began it had dawned on me “Oh right, the fight hasn’t ended yet”. The theme transition on the last phase is one of the best in the whole game. It’s just as if the transition itself was telling you: “This is not over yet. The real fight has just begun”.
I did it with an open book. Get on my level. For real though, it was really funny looking to block as a SCH, and I plan to take pictures doing it as a AST.
The QTE is pretty fun for the tank. Looks awesome when you are a PLD with the spirit shield glamour so it looks like you are blocking the massive sword with your offhand.
then you go in as a 90 party hunting doggos and the fricking ast is blocking it while you the pld is just watching... my reaktion to that moment was literally, i'm the healer now then, you're the tank xD
@@shadowtheshadowlord As a scholar who know the QTE happen but no one going to parry the sword so I choose my trusty codex to receive the blade by myself.
I love how the Theme is like a storm, starts calm, then you see the Giant Sword and it ramps up like the storm just hit, then to end it all, it gets high energy like lightning is cracking the sky.
I love that a change in rhythm and arrangement turns a Japanese folk song into a sea shanty type song xD. Appropriate as Susanoo is god of storms...his persona matches what he is in mythology: a trickster.
When I went into this with my FC, we discovered that when he does the stone gaol shuffle, our scholar's pet follows them and it was easy to know where they were. xD
Just a heads up, his theme is called Revelation. Crafted - ALC Lv70 (Master Alchemist IV) - 1x Blank Grade 3 Orchestrion Roll, 1x Enchanted Palladium Ink, 1x Faded Copy of Revelation (drops from The Pool of Tribute (Extreme)
It like a big festival theme, makes sense that he's a primal representing revelry, joy and all around good times. Though in this form, he represents those things through combat. All the same one of the best primals we've faced.
In the headcanon I've been slowly building as I go through the game, Susano was the fight that really made my WoL realise how much they loved combat. They oppose summoning out of principle, but they *really* want to fight Susano again.
I still remember my first time fighting him and the big shit eating grin I had when I saw the clickable spot and then found out I was blocking him and that huge ass sword..... Mmmmmm so goood
This fight was SUPER FUN!!! But as a healer, I have to tell you all to get with the program and dodge! D:< EDIT: I also had no idea that the tank had an active time maneuver! Super cool! XD
Fun fact, Anyone can take that Active Time Maneuver, I myself have take it as a Dragoon before, the only way to fail it is either failing to mash, You die from AOE damage cause the healers failed to heal you, or your team fails to DPS the 'add' in time.
Open Sunlight I took it by mistake as a healer. We didn't wipe (surely thanks to the other healer) and I REGRET NOTHING. And I would probably never had known the existence of this QTE of I didn't clicked ahah
I like the first half of this music. Very jaunty, good music for chores. 2nd half is very serious, and it fits a battle with a Japanese god pretty well.
When the sword, magatama, and what I'm guessing mirror came together I thought we were going to fight Amaterasu or some kind of version of her and not this jolly fellow
Try /edance or /tdance with this music. Fits perfectly. ...Also, what a fun fight. I really like how Susano isn't all "Grrr big monster man, destroy smol Warrior of Light", he actually has a little more personality. He's just sort of a...goofball, really. He just likes having a good time, and I think this music fits him perfectly. It has a silly sound to it, but gets heavier and stronger, much like a storm building up.
Well he is a mix of my two favourite summons in FF lore. Of course Gilgamesh due to his attitude and as well as Odin due to the fact that he is constantly sleeping inside a sword.
Yknow its been 6 years but only now did I start to think.. ...how bloody soggy must our party be when fighting this lad? ..not only is it a literal poolfight, but its constantly raining. ..and nothing's worse than having soggy clothing
*very* soggy. if you get hit by his whirlpool attacks you get a lightning resistance down debuff making you take even more damage from those attacks because you're so soaked
One thing I want Shadowbringers to do is having Susano and Ravana meet each other, and possibly fight together. Those two would probably get along well.
I'm irrationally upset only 1/3rd of this fight has an orchestrion roll even five years later. Ffs, if they're "too similar" to warrant a second roll, just roll them all into "Revelation". It's not like we have to source both halves of "In The Balance" to hear the whole song
I thought they fixed it last night on the Chaos data centre. All of a sudden everyone that was at Raubahn managed to get through after hours of waiting.
damn... FF14 already had the coolest boss battles in MMOs.... and then they decided to throw in the Active Time Maneuver for transitions.... so... damn... sexy!
Mekkah Dee Awesome good to hear! Yeah having a great time, difficult to get used to their lifestyle but slowly fitting in! Lookin forward to more vidssss :D
When I first did this fight as a Dragoon, my friends ran it with me, and made sure I was the one doing the Active Time Maneuver. I didn't even know it was usually the tank's job, but it sure was fun.
Susano is best Primal, He's not here to slaughter us or bring us under his fold, he just wants a good fight. Nothing more nothing less. TO REVEL IN THE GLORY OF COMBAT, WILD AND PURE AND FOREVER FREE!
I told everyone at the start of the run I was gonna hold the sword as sch and even asked the other healer if they were ok solo healing through one of the swords and they said yes.. One of the tanks got so salty when I did it
*-Learns that the personality of a primal can be modified a bit based on who summoned it and how the summoner of it was feeling at the time* *-Warrior of Light accidentally summons a primal by bringing the final piece to the summoning spot* *-Primal is overly excited to fight and enjoys battles for the thrill of it, even congratulating his opponents for standing up to his attacks and surviving them. Overall, a very playful personality, unlike most of the other primals that want you to bow before them and become their thralls* Yeah, part of me is convinced that the main reason the Warrior of Light even fights these primals is just for the challenge. Stopping them from corrupting everyone around them and destroying parts of the world is just a bonus XD
Would be sound, if Eden didn’t prove otherwise. Susano is just Like That in The Lore anyways. (WoL just does like fighting though, if you pick a dialogue option in EW)
I was stuck for about 12 hours, so wouldn't say I was lucky exactly, although I know people were there for even longer than that. I think the issues are pretty much gone on EU now anyway, I got through when the vast majority of my server did last night. Think it's a different story for our NA brothers though?
Susano is just a swell dude. All he wants is a merry old clobberparty with someone who gives him a nice challenge, and he's having an absolute BALL with it - just like us! :D
I've just arrived in FFXIV (WoW exile 🙂), heard this theme yesterday during the fight... and suddenly I felt as if I was somewhere in Japan watching a matsuri...
I want Susano and Ravana to:
A) Fight each other in a battle for surpreme glory
B) Have a tag-team match against the Warrior of Light
C) Both of those things at the same time
so basically a fight where the raid wasn't a thought in each overs heads and the dangers of the fight were the two clashing.
funny you should say that, i also want susano and ravana to tag-team my warrior of light
@@karimoe2376 My Lalafell would be overjoyed.
Enigma Alpha like a turf war in monster hunter
I want them to be boyfriend
Sure there's no lyrics, but on the other hand this guy talks quite a bit and sounds like a primal having fun as opposed to being all serious. He actually congratulates you for surviving his ult unlike most.
FlippyMcGiantDad He is a party god, according to his lore on the page. So maybe he thinks it's no fun if you lose that easy.
We're going to invite him over for tea after the main story.
OptimalThinkTank but alexander prime himself wasnt necesarily bad according to the lore, so it fits
Ramuh was another primal that was an ok guy.
He IS the Lord of Revel. He embraces loud and boisterous occasions and is the only way he sees fit to enjoy himself.
Susano came off as very playful, as if he wanted to battle for fun, not out of malice, and his theme reflects that.
Yeah, he's a very jovial kind of guy.
He is the primal of revelry, to be fair
He's so freaking fun to fight with his english voice.
Dude just wants to party hardy
Everyone in eorzea: *looks at the primals that just wanna fuck up shit*
Primals:
Why do people dislike this theme? I personally love it. I'm ok with the fact that it has no lyrics, this theme pumps me up whenever I hear it.
Dudecrafter This theme is pure perfection. All it's really missing is kabuki yells, ala Okami.
You mean ala traditional right?
Succubi Pie Nah, I think he means ala Mhigo.
I love the bit that kicks in during the Active Time Maneuver. Really emphasises the intensity of the battle, plus the sheer fact that someone's holding off a sword the size of a tower while it plays makes it all the more badass.
The fact that he talks so much is why there's no lyrics, I think.
*W I L D A N D P U R E A N D F O R E V E R F R E E*
*wipes* Y'know, I ain't even mad. Like Ravana, I love this fight so much that wipes don't bother me in the least.
THE SEAS PART FOR WE ALONE!

And then you notice the marked player standing 5 yalms to the left of the MT.

as a tank, blocking his giant sword makes me feel manly as f#ck.
as a tank I yell'd to my FC members, "NOBODY TOUCHES THE THING!!"
LET ME HAVE MY GLORY!! D:
Yes, felt really good. Nobody has to know how easy the mechanic actually is! xD
It becomes cooler if your a PLD with the Invisible shield glamour
"I"M BLOCKING A GIANT SWORD WITH MY F@!%!% FIST!!!"
To be fair I thought the tank just had to stand on the right spot and do nothing XD It's actually more involved than I thought!
I did it with an open book. Get on my level.
For real though, it was really funny looking to block as a SCH, and I plan to take pictures doing it as a AST.
The QTE is pretty fun for the tank. Looks awesome when you are a PLD with the spirit shield glamour so it looks like you are blocking the massive sword with your offhand.

Then there was me with my dinky little gunblade in comparison to his giant f-you sword
A bun with a dream I was
The best part about him I think is that he doesn't even try to temper anyone. He just straight up wants a good fight and that's it.
HE SAYS REJOICE!
NOW WE ALL CAN REJOICE IN THE GLORY OF COMBAT!
That does it, I wanna see this guy go up against Ravana.
It really sounds like the two would get along just fine.
4 swords guy vs giant swords guy? Yea that'd be cool
The second I heard him say that, I was like "Ravana? Is that you?"
Throw in Odin into the mix as well. The armor swordmen of all three versions.
Susano, Ravana's older brother and the one that party animal!
The VA for Susano is great; I felt chills when he yelled REJOOOOOOOICE!
I love how the Theme is like a storm, starts calm, then you see the Giant Sword and it ramps up like the storm just hit, then to end it all, it gets high energy like lightning is cracking the sky.
I had to wait in line 8 hours to view this video.
Working as intended
Subscribed.
I love that a change in rhythm and arrangement turns a Japanese folk song into a sea shanty type song xD. Appropriate as Susanoo is god of storms...his persona matches what he is in mythology: a trickster.
Qte: Becomes available.
That one DPS: My time has come...
Just came back thinking about Final Fantasy XVI, I'm so hyped!
I love, love, love the dramatic shift in tempo in Phase 2. If this is how SE's doing Primals, now, I can't wait to see our raid tier.
How am i supposed to be playing this game with all these bangers playing in the background lol
*RESILIENT SOUL, I SALUTE YOU !*
When I went into this with my FC, we discovered that when he does the stone gaol shuffle, our scholar's pet follows them and it was easy to know where they were. xD
Just a heads up, his theme is called Revelation.

me at start: ahaha what is he holding a toothpick? lol XD
* comes out of the water and picks up a giant sword *
me: I TAKE IT BACK! I TAKE IT BACK!
I still remember my first time fighting him and the big shit eating grin I had when I saw the clickable spot and then found out I was blocking him and that huge ass sword..... Mmmmmm so goood
This was the Trial that hooked this WoW vets heart, and every single one since. \o/
This fight was SUPER FUN!!! But as a healer, I have to tell you all to get with the program and dodge! D:<

Open Sunlight I took it by mistake as a healer. We didn't wipe (surely thanks to the other healer) and I REGRET NOTHING.
And I would probably never had known the existence of this QTE of I didn't clicked ahah
Labrys Dynasty or if pol fail to stop the balls
I had no idea the game had QTEs to start with
this was actually the second one in the game! (first being cruise chaser in the alexander raids) they've since added a few more
I like the first half of this music. Very jaunty, good music for chores.
2nd half is very serious, and it fits a battle with a Japanese god pretty well.
When the sword, magatama, and what I'm guessing mirror came together I thought we were going to fight Amaterasu or some kind of version of her and not this jolly fellow
LET THE RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRREVELS BEGIN
Characters who roll their R's are scientifically proven to be 150% more fun.
I got to do the parry in my first try while I was playing Dark Knight in one of my first times and OH GOD, it was epic.
I really don't know why, but the more I listen to this, the more I actually like it.
REJOICE!!!
KazuyaVanguardTV rejoiceeeee
IN THE GLORY OF COMBAT lol sorry I can't do that anymore when ever i ruu this duty someone always says it lol
This first phase reminds me of the Okinawan festivals my mom would take me to
HOW OUR HEARTS SING IN THE CHAOS
The personality of susano was really really interesting..
I love when primals are not "buahahahaha..." evil tipe
Garuda's laugh though...fun to mimic AND type out
though it does make it more heartbreaking to have to put them down when they aren't actually malicious.
I absolutely love the first part of his theme. Makes me wanna dance with him. While fighting, of course.
Try /edance or /tdance with this music. Fits perfectly.
...Also, what a fun fight. I really like how Susano isn't all "Grrr big monster man, destroy smol Warrior of Light", he actually has a little more personality. He's just sort of a...goofball, really. He just likes having a good time, and I think this music fits him perfectly. It has a silly sound to it, but gets heavier and stronger, much like a storm building up.
He's like Gilgamesh except he actually has a good sword :P
Hah, true. c:
Catherine J.G Well, he is the Lord of Revel, after all. He's basically the Party God.
Well he is a mix of my two favourite summons in FF lore. Of course Gilgamesh due to his attitude and as well as Odin due to the fact that he is constantly sleeping inside a sword.
+Mokou Houraisan I was thinking the same.

*very* soggy. if you get hit by his whirlpool attacks you get a lightning resistance down debuff making you take even more damage from those attacks because you're so soaked
other primals: i shall kill you warrior of light
susano: lets fight to some sick ass music
When I was a young sprout this fight gave me chills @ the sword the epic sword clash! this theme is one of the best because its so pump.
One thing I want Shadowbringers to do is having Susano and Ravana meet each other, and possibly fight together.
Those two would probably get along well.
*The seas part for we alone!*
Still one of my favourite themes in the game. When the second phase hits, god damn is it the definition of EPIC
that gagaku instruments from the first part, very fitting for a shinto god
The theme of phase 1 is definitely my cup of tea.
HamuSumo i feel the same :)
I love it, especially phase 1. Battle drums get me pumped up!
japanese battle drums fill my weeabo heart with joy! :D
Can't wait for the Raubahn Savage theme
What about the Pipin Savage theme? I want that as well too.
Just waiting on someone to make this
Salika Klixiso would laugh so hard if SE throws it in a trial as a joke
Evan Neal clearing Raubahn Savage gives you Cloud's bike as a mount but nobody can get in
I'm irrationally upset only 1/3rd of this fight has an orchestrion roll even five years later. Ffs, if they're "too similar" to warrant a second roll, just roll them all into "Revelation". It's not like we have to source both halves of "In The Balance" to hear the whole song
Absolutely perfect for Susano.
Ciara Pierce the music fits this battle so well
Our hearts sing in the chaos! REJOICE!
Best served with cold steel
Only blocked me for 12 hours (y)
still stuck on it. Been up since 5am trying to do the quest. give up after 15hours or so went to sleep and its still not fixed.
I thought they fixed it last night on the Chaos data centre. All of a sudden everyone that was at Raubahn managed to get through after hours of waiting.
Mekkah Dee Meanwhile i can't even comment since I'm way behind on msq and can't even get into xelphatol.
MOISTBABYFARTS from Famfrit?
damn... FF14 already had the coolest boss battles in MMOs.... and then they decided to throw in the Active Time Maneuver for transitions.... so... damn... sexy!
I could listen to the first section of this, the part with the drums and flutes, for hours. Makes me feel like I'm going somewhere epic.
I get a strong Majora's Mask vibe from this.
Yes, Deku palace. I also felt that way
dang, The Last Ronin's looking pretty good
I get serious chills every single time the tank stops his sword
Resilient souls I salute you!
dude this fight is probably my favorite in the game. REJOICE!!
Have a blast in Stormblood man, very jealous!! Will watch all the vids just to see what se can do with this expansion!
Thanking you, it's pretty darn good other than some server problems. How's Malaysia treating you?
Mekkah Dee Awesome good to hear! Yeah having a great time, difficult to get used to their lifestyle but slowly fitting in! Lookin forward to more vidssss :D

Very good primal to fight against and absolutely awesome music when the tank have to hold the big sword swing
love this extreme theme lol. feels really psyche you up
WHEN YOU DIE, WHERE'S YOUR GOD?!
Wait, wrong Susanoo.
Old King lets give in the pain🎶
FOREVER WILD AND FREE

Would be sound, if Eden didn’t prove otherwise.
Susano is just Like That in The Lore anyways.
(WoL just does like fighting though, if you pick a dialogue option in EW)
I never knew the tank was doing an active time maneuver in this!
Ravana Vs Susano!
Highly recommend that song with a good set of speakers that can give you a good bass, that's when that song truly shines.
If I had to pick a primal to temper me, my choice would probably be Susano.
Such ferocity..
Let the revels begin!
0:57 hey that music was from the movie Spirited Away
damm that QTE is amazing
hope you are skilled clicker or atleast soemone in your party is.
iz hard
Mekkah Dee I guess you were one of the lucky few who finished the MSQ without any problems
I was stuck for about 12 hours, so wouldn't say I was lucky exactly, although I know people were there for even longer than that. I think the issues are pretty much gone on EU now anyway, I got through when the vast majority of my server did last night. Think it's a different story for our NA brothers though?
Mekkah Dee Vastly, we're still stuck in traffic.
Riding it mount while hunting Pazuzu during Eureka gale weather is perfection
Susano is a vibe. Best boss and music in the game by far.
I wish there was a bit more to this theme itself though. Like Zurvan's, it has good parts as it progresses, but it just never really goes anywhere.
Great boss, did not expect the QTE and the rock mechanic.... I hate those Titanesque quakes :I
SE never fail to create awesome primal themes, I love it!
One of my favorite battle themes. ^_^
Can we get a Greg vs Susano?
3:23 such a good moment
WILD, PURE, AND FOREVER FREE!
Such a memorable fight, with such meorable lines. REJOICE! WIld and pure, and Forever FREE!
Awesome. Seriously awesome.
This is what Gilgamesh would be if he was more bloodthirsty
Dragonsamurai It's basically what he was like in FFV (his source material)
Funny you should mention that
HOW OUR HEARTS SING IN THE CHAOS!
WILD AND PURE AND FOREVER FREE!
I remember TP.... feels so long ago lol
Yeah...
Susano is just a swell dude. All he wants is a merry old clobberparty with someone who gives him a nice challenge, and he's having an absolute BALL with it - just like us! :D
This is such a good fight.
Resilient souls, I salute you!
I see that this theme is so fitting
RESILIENT SOULS, I SALUTE YOU!
I've just arrived in FFXIV (WoW exile 🙂), heard this theme yesterday during the fight... and suddenly I felt as if I was somewhere in Japan watching a matsuri...
Finally taking in the awesomeness of this theme without the sound effects.
3:24 and people say Stormblood is a mediocre expansion. Clearly they need to rrrrrrrevel more.
