Final Fantasy XIV: Heavensward Alexander (Normal) The Fist Of The Son Visual Raid Guide
30Welcome to Alexander (Normal) The Fist of the Son Visual Raid Guide part of the Heavensward content for Final Fantasy XIV. Alexander - The Fist of the Son or A5 is the first floor of Alexander: Midas. It requires the player to have an average item level of 200 or above to enter.
Why watch really short clips and skip fight mechanics when you can see the whole fight in its entirety? In this no commentary lets play, watch me run through the Burden of the Father from a Machinist perspective while listening to the music and audio queues. You'll experience the overview of the fight and see the boss mechanics in my visual guide of FFXIV! Watch me take down The Manipulator!
Tank Ratfinx Twinkledinks in the corner to make it easier to avoid the very large AOE from bombs.
When the boss changes to his giant form, he will apply a debuff 4x, stunning the main tank on 4th and then wind up for a tankbuster. Off-tank should temporarily provoke the boss at 4 to intercept the tankbuster. After recovering, the MT then takes it back to resume.
Adds will spawn in the corners of the room; they need to be tanked.
If you get a red-orange marker over your head, run away from the party. This will drop a large puddle.
The tower in the center of the room has a purple circle around it. Standing near the circle brings up two puddles on the sides of the room:
Red puddle will turn you into a gorilla, giving you a skill to knock bombs far away from the party before they explode. (More bombs will spawn each time he summons them. First one, then two, then three.)
The violet puddle will turn you into a bird. When the boss is extra large and uses "Boost," become a bird or you'll likely die to his mulitple groundpound attacks. Wing Cutter allows you to do a little damage, Apothecary will turn you back into yourself.
Although you succeeded in destroying the core of Gordias, it seems that was only a temporary measure. The walking fortress has stirred once more, and its left arm now rests on the banks of the Thaliak. The entrance lies open and unguarded, suggesting the goblins inside are as surprised as you. Take advantage of your enemy's unreadiness and face the Illuminati threat once more─hopefully for the last time.
I do not own the audio, but the gameplay is my own as I help people see the fights visually using my character I created in Final Fantasy XIV.
