 We are going to play some Final Fantasy XIV and we got Crystal Tower. Hello, hello, hello, Han. I'm just gonna invite everybody who's here already, first people. Okay, Han, so what do we need? One more healer and one more tank, but there's only one more invite spot. Wait, is this a 24 person group? 24 man's only need one tank. What? Sid, you're the only one of our number who has ever crossed this threshold. I ask that you take the lead for the present. I say, the energy radiating from these statues is palpable. Lucky for us that is. One might otherwise stroll past them. Feast your eyes on the elemental defenses which prompted our lengthy preparations. These sentinels prevent would-be intruders from advancing to within 20 yoms of the town's inner reaches. Happily, the Crystal Fangs we took such pains to crash and spare us the inconvenience of instantaneous annihilation. Here, allow me to demonstrate. Chief, it's too- Dangerous to allow anyone to risk his life testing one? Quite right. I made the damn things. It's my job to see that they work. Is that corny? I for one am convinced. Friends, ready your fangs. The last one is yours, old friend. It seemed only right. I suggest we wait here while Esfan and a hand-picked party of his adventuring companions enter the tower. If the outside of the place is this well-defended, can you imagine what awaits us on the inside? Only a true hero could reasonably hope to brave the hazards ahead and live to tell the tale. Esfan here fits that description better than anyone I know. So, how do I do this? You plan on doing this minimum eye level? Yes. Minimum eye level, no echo. I think this is good. We can go ahead and recruit members. Oh, so people just joined. Are we full? How can I see my whole raid? We need one more healer, 3DPS? Okay, cool. I just woke up from a one-year coma. When I left that stand, I never planned anything else about it. What does this watch grab? What do you mean? A year ago, I was doing Variety. No, a year ago, this was A.Q. Launch. I was ranking. Never mind. No, you're right. Wait, he actually did wake up from a one-year coma. He hasn't been here in exactly one month or one year and two days. And the first thing he does is come to watch my stream. Wow, amazing. Min eye level, no echo. Crystal tower, huge dongers. No, not dongers. That's an old thing. Huge dicks. Okay. Here we go, dude. Oh, shit. Here we go. Chatting, chatting, chatting. Okay. Oh, hold on. I got to send a textual message to someone. I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry. Okay. I'm getting pumped. I'm getting excited. Dude, I don't know what just happened. I'm freaking blasted with energy. Ready? Fix that UI. Man. I've got the best UI, dude. Okay. Here it is. Dude, you know what this looks like? This looks like a combination of old iron forge and on-carriage put together. Like, that's what it reminds me of. Okay. Everybody stand here. Everybody stand right here. Okay. Everybody has to stand right here before we go. Okay. Listen up. This isn't going to be easy. Okay. This isn't going to be easy. Nobody has ever done this. But we are going to go in here and we are going to one-shot the Trials of Atlantis. What's this called? L-LOTA. The Lord of the Ass. Okay. This is the path of decay. Hold, hold, hold. These are trash mobs? They want you to think that they're trash mobs. Okay. These are the most dangerous mobs the world has ever seen before. We're going to go ahead and pull. Brathgar is going to pull in five seconds. Okay. Just stack them and cleave. Yeah. Just stack them and cleave. It's going to be easy. I'm spamming Doom Spike. Is this even a good idea? I don't know. Okay. I'm dead. What? Where were the heels? What the frick? Okay. It's fine. It's fine. Okay. Here's a game plan. Don't stand in the purple. If you stand in the purple, you die. If you die in game, you die in real life. Oh, frick. Wait, what? How did I get hit? Wait, did I get hit by the AOE or was I in the purple? What? That was a really good attempt on the first boss. Okay. How do I release? Oh. Okay. It had been so long since I did that that I forgot you had to hold it. Okay. Listen up, guys. Listen, listen, listen. I'm huge. Why? Because I do big damage. Listen up. My head has been cut off. Okay. This is a metaphor. That's how we did that pull. You have to make sure that you stay cool, calm, collected, and you're of sound mind. Okay. So that's what we're going to do. Okay, guys. You got this. Okay. I'm going to squat my way off even though this is starting to hurt my knees. Ad hoc, air go, prop your hock. What is this? The Matrix 2? Dude, AOE in this game is not like very good. Am I supposed to be in the, where am I supposed to be? What is, hey, what is this? I've seen this on multiple bosses, but I don't know. Do these guys have to die at the same time? Frick. Did I get one shot there? I'm noticing I don't realize whenever I'm taking damage. I need a battle rest. I was, I was top damage. I don't, I don't see where I, okay. You know what? Just, just trust me. Just trust me. I was top damage, probably. Okay. Good job. That was really good. Thank you to everybody else for following my example. This is the next part, okay. That was a good job killing the first boss in the dungeon. Okay. Is this him? Is this the first boss? Hall of the Tainted. Hall of the Tainted. Oh, Frick. This is what we got going on here. We've got the Bone Dragon. Let me explain this fight to you. Because I know it like the back of my hand. Why? Because I've been playing this game for about 85 years. We are going to engage this boss. It's very important. We have three groups. We have three full parties. We have an alliance together, 24 people. So what's going to happen is we need to separate on three corners of the boss. Triangle formation. Okay. Group in the back. And then two groups. We'll be dbsing from the sides at both angles. Next, what happens is at some point during the fight he will spawn Bone Dragons. Skeleton Bone Dragons. Yes. They're going to explode and kill the entirety of the raid. They're going to catch fire. And then the ground will be engulfed in flames. That's exactly how this fight works. At some point in the fight the ceiling will collapse. Whenever the ceiling collapses everybody will get stunned. If we lose some people we need to make sure to battle resident at that time. This next portion of the fight will be hacky sack. After that, that will take us into the execute phase. Max damage. Finish him off at the last 20% and we should be good. That's exactly how this fight goes. Thank you. Three hours by the way. We only have like two hours left. Actually for this raid we don't have much time left. Oh he actually does spawn skeletons. I made up all those mechanics randomly. It's tier 3, 16 months. Storm god Maccazi, thank you dude. Okay. What? Okay. You look at the other screen I think. It's quite obvious why you died huge red AoE. Yeah, but it would... The AoE hit the entire raid. Like it was like a massive AoE. So there's something that activated that, right? Skeletons go to the dragon and explode if you don't kill them fast enough. Oh wait, really? That was real? I was joking. I made that up. It's actually funny that you're correct. Yeah, I mean I was just... I was just meming. Okay. Wait. No, no, no, don't kill them. Don't kill them here. Don't kill them here. Don't kill them there. Don't kill them there. Don't kill them there. So the adds are all around. I'm gonna go stand on this thing. Uh-oh. There's that one spawned. Okay, so it's just the same thing? Is it just run some repeat? Medic. Thank you. We have to stop them getting the boss. They're getting the boss. We're gonna get owned. Okay, I see it. I see it. I see it. I see it. Okay. Brick. Dude, I died to the tick of here. Okay. Good progress. I think we understand it. I don't know what happened on the second set. We let a bunch of skeletons get to him. Hey, uh, we gotta get that skeleton away from here. So the faster we kill the bone dragon, the less skeletons we have to deal with in the first place. These guys are gonna spawn. We take damage now here. So let's kill this guy before he gets back. Good. Okay. So this is how this works. What happens is it's just rinse and repeat that whole time. It's just really that one mechanic. Hey, we have too many of these guys on the same platform, which means we will need more DPS on this platform to kill it. This guy is gonna spawn right here. And... Okay. Thank you. It's only a multiple go off. Yeah, yeah, but my point being... Brick, I literally just hit second wind! Okay. Oh my gosh. Why is it so... It's so hard to target in this game! What are we doing? Oh, we killed it? Oh, we killed it! Wait, so how many... Okay, so how can you tell, like, how many phases are there? Oh, so it's three every time. Oh, okay. Thanatos. Dude, I made a little no mage named Thanatos back like 15 years ago in vanilla. Thanatos, an ancient Greek religion of mythology, the personification of death. So, guys, here he is, the mighty Thanatos. The former no mage. Yes, that's right. This guy was a no mage in World of WoW and he re-rolled. That's what he did. This guy's not gonna be easy, okay? He's angry, he's pissed, he was neglected for over 15 years, and now he's back, and he's gonna destroy the world of fantasy. So, guys, this is how this boss fight works. He does a big AoE frontal cone cleave. That's what he does. He also will go second person on his threat meter. He's gonna give them a hateful strike. The next thing that we're gonna have is, he's gonna have a mechanic where he comes in and he spawns clouds of lightning that will spawn throughout the arena. And whenever this happens, we just have to make sure that our ranged DPS is spread out equally across the entire area, okay? The third thing that we have to know about on this boss is he does an AoE silence chain lightning. And how you avoid this mechanic is by spreading out equally that way the lightning won't chain to as many people as possible. So get approximately seven yards away from each other and we should be fine. That is exactly 100% the mechanics of this fight. Okay, ready? Let's go ahead and pull. Countdown, eight. I waited for you. Oh, there it is. There's a chain lightning. What the frick is this? Okay. Existing damage dealt is reduced, but can attack ghostly beings, okay? So that means that I need to attack and then I need ghostly beings to attack. Okay. And go here. Disembowel. Oh, he's invulnerable. He's invulnerable. It's... Okay, he's still invulnerable. Okay, I understand. Oh, invulnerable. Brick! I got cleaved. I always die to cleave. Do we get it? Nice! Nice! Believers, congratulations. Look at that. Wow, one shot. Guys, there's two bosses left in this raid. We have King Behemoth and question mark, the bold. I got cleaved. I tried to run through him. Oh, my gosh. Dude, I'm telling you, dude, that's targeting this game. Mm-mm. Oh, what? Okay, I think we did something wrong. Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh. Okay, so whenever he does that, okay, that's like the Saffron Bomb. Okay, I got it. Okay, I figured it out. Okay, run it back. Run it back. We got this. We got this. We got this. Okay, there's a rock that's spawned right here. Level 50 Comet. Okay. He's bragging. He's bragging. He's bragging. Get behind the rocks. Get behind the one that's far away from him because his hitbox seems to be covering that one and it's kind of freaking me out. Okay, the rock was way too close to him. Yeah. The rock was way too close to him. Okay. Hide, hide, hide, hide, hide, hide, hide. I dropped the Comet in kind of a bad spot. I need a battle res healer. You need to be hiding. You need to be hiding. Okay, don't get hit by those wind tunnels either. I just hit second wind. Seven percent. Can I get battle res? If we can afford it. Is this it? Almost everybody's dead. One percent, one percent, one percent, one percent, one percent. One percent, one percent, one percent, one percent. Oh, finally. Oh, finally, finally we killed it. There we go, dude. Okay, so this isn't going to be easy, but this is the last boss, okay? We timed out. Maybe, maybe we spent a little bit too much time going over raid mechanics, okay? But listen, we adapt, we persevere, we overcome. I thought we weren't even going to be able to get back to this point today. I personally don't have much time. I got to go soon. We got Flegathon, okay? Which is, I mean, I don't even know what kind of name that is. If it was a Flemathon, I thought it would be like a marathon for smokers, but I don't even know what a Flegathon is. So he's going to drop iron claws that will drop from the sky. And what these do is these will pick you up like a, like a crane from each. And then what's going to happen? Nim's going to get scammed. He's saying that. But after Nim gets scammed, he's going to drop you in the lava. In the meantime, there's going to be a horde of ads that are going to fly in. All the rest of the DPS has to make sure the ads are healed. Or killed, sorry. It's going to be simple. We're going to go in, we're going to one-shot this boss, and then I got to go, okay? Let's do this. Okay, countdown. This looks like a phone game. Dude, what kind of phone do you have? What the frick? Wait, what? Okay, I'm feeling like I'm the only person who tried to avoid that. Why? Okay, iron giant. Okay, remember this? These iron giants have cleaves. Okay. Okay, so is it just rinse and repeat at this point? I thought I was closer. That's my fault. Well, I think we actually are going to one-shot this. Uh, what the frick? We got this? Two percent? One percent? Oh, crap. He just did a ton of damage to everybody. No! We actually did it in time. Good job, everybody. Very good. Sweet. Well, good stuff. Ice cream? Okay, chat.
