Final Fantasy XIV: Heavensward Alexander (Normal) The Burden Of The Father Visual Raid Guide



Welcome to Alexander (Normal) The Burden of the Father Visual Raid Guide part of the Heavensward content for Final Fantasy XIV. Alexander – The Burden of the Father or A4 is the fourth and final floor of Alexander: Gordias. It requires the players to have an average item level (iLvl) of 170 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!

The Manipulator
This boss is divided into 3 phases, with Phase 1 and Phase 2 consisting of different mechanics and Phase 3 including all mechanics. Phase 1 and 2 are destroying the legs.

Note that everything the boss does is splash damage, so it is important for the range to spread out and the melee to spread out around the targets. You need to focus down one leg at a time as the other leg will fully heal when the other is destroyed.

Throughout the entire fight the boss will target players to deal heavy splash damage. It will also target 1 dps and the off tank to be “Quarantined” and they will be flown through a pipe and have to kill 1 add before they’re allowed back to join the fight. Note that dying in that room makes it impossible to be revived.

Fight the legs one at a time. Other legs will heal when one is defeated so attack one at a time. When the Jagd Dolls appear attack them ASAP and take them down quickly as possible!

The Illuminati would see the lofty ideals of the Enigma Codex turned into warped elitism, and have their primal play host to their chosen few. From within its walls, they would control the world with cold logic, and crush opposition with a fist of iron. With your eyes opened to the goblin scholars’ true ambitions, you must make your way farther past the pumping pistons and grinding gears of the colossus. Can you and your comrades destroy the core therein, or will you fall and so allow your foes to wreak ruin across the realm?

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.
