1:31-Faust. This guy is easy, ignore the adds while the off tank pulls them away from the raid. It's necessary since otherwise they'll hit the raid with their cleaves.

4:13-Oppressor. I'll just copy pasta the details.

Tank the boss in the South side of the room and avoid any AoE as necessary. The player with Prey for Hydrothermal Missile should distance themselves from other players to avoid unnecessary damage to others. When the Alarum adds spawn, they will tether and follow the first player that hits them, this should be a DPS and not a tank. Kite them away from the boss and kill them both ASAP. They will damage the player and add stacks of Nanoparticles which gaining too many stacks will result in death. When an Alarum is killed, it will leave a small purple AoE that will mini anyone who stands in it.
Do as much damage as you can to the Oppressor during this phase to make the next phase easier

Phase 2 happens after 90 seconds(a little after the first Emergency Deployment). An alarm will sound and a second boss "Oppressor 0.5" will spawn with the same HP as the original Oppressor. The offtank aggro the new Oppressor ASAP and keep it to the north side of the room, the 2 bosses being close to each other they will quickly gain stacks of Damage Up.

All mechanics from the first phase are still in this phase, the biggest change is with the Alarum adds that spawn.

2 Oppressors, you will have 4 Alarum adds, you need to kill these adds underneath the orange beam for the nukes. Remember they tether onto the first player that damages them. Creating a purple puddle under the beam will make the missile mini and deal very little damage and will not cause the raid to be debuffed.

After every missile, the Oppressors will shortly jump into the air and 2 pulsing AoEs will show, this is Quick Landing, just get to the other side of the room to take less damage.

Repeat this until the Oppressors are dead. Just remember both Oppressors should die around the same time. When one oppressor dies the other will begin to cast Self Destruct giving you ten seconds to kill it before you wipe. So watch the HP of both or use limit breaks if need be. Focus target is great here. This was pretty smooth.

First time clearing Alexander-The Fist of the Father Normal Mode.

Yeah I'm late to the party. I didn't know it was this easy so I was putting it off. Basically Alexander normal is like on a CT level of difficulty. So it can be done in the Duty Finder easily. You'll want to too since that's the only way to move onto the harder version of this raid.

Also yes I am aware that those drops at the end are what you exchange to get gear actually. But I don't need them anyhow since esoteric gear is out and I like the crit on most eso gear better than what these pieces provide. So it's better folks who actually want that gear win it anyhow.

I kinda like how they did things, it's nice the normal mode is duty finder friendly so people can experience the story but if they want the best gear and challenge you gotta go higher.
