This is a guide to the fight P8S Phase 1 (Hephaistos) in the game Final Fantasy XIV (FFXIV).
Sorry for another long one, but this fight feature a lot of 50:50 mixups out and I wanted to show as many of the different combinations as possible to help people who might struggle to visualise the other possibility.

thank you kou kazuma
snakes are mean i hate it here
best ffxiv guides by far.
My man doesnβt rest β€οΈ always got the next vid ready just when itβs needed
Right as I'm progging it, Hector the king
Exact opposite of what doing in pf all week long. Whyyyyyy g1 ccw ππππππ why is the one marker on NE instead of NW ππππππ whyyyyyy different priority system than everyone already learned in hesperos ππππ. The fourfold solution is intuitive o/
I've done a prog of this a good 4 times to understand the mechs and this video along with 2 others has helped clarify what I've seen and been informed about. I been lookin at my videos i saved of my fights to get a gist of what I should do. This has been another great informative video bc the blue flames were a hassle for me during manifold. The gorgon 2 (granted I only seen it 2 times in my progs) wasn't fully making sense either until this and another vid gave the clarification toolbox couldn't really give me 100%. This made it make sense more with the visual. I didn't know there was an aoe fully until this was shown. Now it makes sense why we needed the circle petri behind the gorgons.
Thanks for another great guide. I hope I can get this cleared next week or after that at least in week 4.
now i know if Hector play this game he play Healer or he hate Tanks for PF's!
thank you for the work you do! I was getting by with other guides but these are definitely my favorites, very in depth
How tight are those static snake positions? because if you play legacy you HAVE to move, even if it's one pixel, to change the direction you are looking at, so you might end up clipping your poision partner.
For me the best Guide, Greetings from Germany
Only thing i would change is the Prio system for Snakes beeing From A(North) CW as this: MT>OT>H1>H2, for dps: M1>M2>R1>R2, no swap needed
alright, pf has no excuses anymore! Thank you for the guide.
Thank you :}
OUR SAVIOR HAS COME THROUGH!!
Not all heroes wear capes…and Hector is a hero! Looking forward to phase2!
Some parts of this look very similar to Pinax. monkaS
This man right here makes the best FFXIV raid guides out there. Well explained, no funny magic words that put me to sleep and nice graphs to go with it.
One note for the 2nd & 3rd Flamevipers, as a tank — if you pre-cast your 90s mitigations when the sunforged during Fourfold Flames is being cast (and you're positioning for the stored conceptual tetra/octaflares), they will last you through both flameviper hits and also be available to kitchen sink for the 3rd set. (assuming a 20s duration)
