ah yes, an original experience, being carried through content by friends on the very first playthrough
"To all of my children…" Answers IS my favorite song in FF14 realms (ok maybe with Terra's theme — you can hear it while riding your Magitek) Here's Suzan Calloway, singing the song from home, what a threat

I feel super lucky to have met a group during the coils that were all around level 50, that decided to go through the whole thing together. We really struggled to get through the whole thing. We wiped for weeks! It was the genuine experience. We took on Alexander too.
Gg these raids are lit I did them when I started playing right when HW came out so we where only level 60s with 120 gear or somthing like that so they where still hard af unsynched lol but they are insane raids
Answers (the song in the last fight) always makes me cry. Every single time. I recommend looking up the Flames of Truth cinematic. It's a depiction of the end of 1.0, and the beginning of A Realm Reborn. It's beautiful, it's scored fantastically, and it gives so much context to everything while looking AMAZING.
Looks amazing every time I see it. You mind listing specs? I would love to know what you’re running..looks absolutely gorgeous
Enters guruda hard”
“She definitely seems more calm”…
“She’s definitely not-“ 😭😭😭👌🏽
In FFXIV, ilms are inches, yalms are yards, and malms are miles. They just want to be special and use their own names for measurements.
The binding coil of bahamut is fabulous and I'm really glad you got to enjoy it!
I was there and progressing the entire thing when it was current from Bcob and fcob people don't believe me when I say ARR was like the wotlk of ff14 when it was current
laughs in blue mage
How do I find groups faster for the main quest dungeons ? I was waiting like 45 min
Soken is a phenomenal composer. You were right when you said FFXIV is lucky to have him!
Also, whilst the effects are way over the top in FFXIV for my personal liking, one thing i cannot deny is that SqEnix do a fantastic job at making their instances look insanely good
lol you were synced but 1/2 to 3/4 of people in your group were on Blue Mage. Blue mage is a limited job that is incredibly overpowered and normally cannot do content like this with a matchmade group, among other restrictions on the job.
Edit: I see the # of BLU was changing as you progressed. Also Turn 9 is infamous for its difficulty, thats probably why they decided to unsync it lol
i made so much gil selling Titan Hard runs to people wanting glowy relic weapons. it was an absolute sh*t show back then.
As a 1.0 player progressing through these raid tiers, it was amazing and emotional. Still love watching others experience it.
ahh I remember the struggles of a noob paladin doing T1 progression with a trash can armor aka darklight set
How do you unlock the hard mode fights?
You're becoming my favorite youtuber. Keep it up!!! ff14 content is fire af
ohhh, this makes me want to jump back in
how can you skip the akh morn part D:
Coil is so damn epic (even when you run it solo unsynced).
Oh, there are some short stories on the Lodestone that show little glimpses into some characters' lives. Not much more than 2-3 pages if they were printed like a novel, they are still damn interesting. Don't read any stories in the sections of any expansions you haven't completed, they have spoilers. And the Calamity section seems not have been properly translated so it gets a bit odd in some of the short stories.

Wait till u start playing Shadowbringers. The storyline is epic and very enjoyable to play.
woah the fite and the song is so wel corigirated 😮 i newer kneew
"Imagine progressing this fight at the time of it being current".
Dude you have no idea.
Soundtrack is godly.
I'm so glad they have a free trial. I probably wouldnt have taken a chance on it otherwise. I'm a level 50 warrior now and this is one of the best games I've ever played.
Kind of sad they killed Bahamut right before the song got to its climax, he didn't get to hear that incredibly powerful singing. I wish they'd held off on the dps a little more.
TBCOB is my second favourite raid series of all time only beaten by icecrown. It really was a magical raid series.
Coil of bahamut is truly EPIC!
The final fight back when it was new was pretty much paced to proceed in time with the song and the whole thing is pretty much a callback to the way the original End of an Era/A Realm Reborn trailer.
I remember doing these raids when they released. We always called turn 3 green hill zone because we just ran through without fighting anything.
well, that was interesting… I'm someone who finished Shadowbringers and crafted a Deathlocke Lux (a Machinist legendary weapon) which required completing all of ARRs and HWs Primals in their Hard mode, this made me think it would've covered content like Coil of Bahamut, yet somehow this is my first time ever seeing this quest – glad I saw it
It's probably a good thing you didn't try to sync Turn 9… that might've taken awhile. Though it was fun watching the synced blue mages smash through everything. In addition to what you said about unsyncing/higher level gear it making it easier, having blue mages also makes it easier because they're completely overpowered, but only allowed in lower-level content.
This was retard hard when it was the highest gear you could get the whole party had to know what they were doing no carrying or you would waste your whole night over and over lol especially bahumut and twintania
Melusine was hard it even get nerfed during on content lol, also the petri mech timing different than World Of Darkness Agrippa onward
did u not see the opening trailer of the game?
If you haven't watched the opening cinematic for Realm Reborn, you should do that immediately.
music is a way to evoke emotions and having something that sounds poignant is a way to make the player feel a connection to the story. More MMOS need to use this especially in epic boss fights.
What an epic story. Absolutely breathtaking. I shed a tear at the second to last part of the final coils.
Blind runs are the best
Doing the run as synced and savage is well worth the effort if you haven’t done it yet
watches while getting ptsd from doing coils at ilvl 80
We didn't even have the ilvl90 gear you get by default as your artifact armor
You like impressive phase changes with the music matching the phase? Oh boy. You're in for a treat. XD
Finally I can watch you go through these raids after deciding to solo them on my Blue Mage.
Binding Coil raid: "Hey do you like crying?"
Alexander: "TIME TRAVELLING ROBOTS"
Only recently started ffxiv aswel after 16yrd of WoW. The first 30ish lvls I was just speeding through, like I was playing WoW.. then I found this playlist of yours and it made me slow down and enjoy. This video in particular has rly made me want to play more and just take it slow and actually experience it, instead of gtgfast.. thank you sir
