Extreme Trial Guide

This fight covers all of the main mechanics for one of Endwalker’s first new extreme trials, including tank busters, raidwides, telegraphed mechanics, Paradeigma, Exoterikos, and Astral Eclipse. Clips are reaper pov and are supported by diagrams to help with comprehension.
Feedback and constructive criticism welcome as always; I hope that you find this helpful! Moving forward, English closed captions will be available on all new guides on this channel.
Special thanks to my co-raiders and especially Kit Reign for helping and consulting during preproduction.

Hey everyone. There were some framerate issues in my footage of this fight that weren't discovered until late in the production process. While it is only present at some points in the guide, it is very noticeable when it is, and this level of quality is beneath what I am aiming for. Please accept my apology and know that I will be testing various solutions before the raid tiers come out to avoid this problem in the future. Thank you so much for checking out my guide.
your guides are always my favorite! <3 thanks dude!
after your hydaelyn guide I was waiting for this
straight to the point , thanks Raine !
Another fantastic guide to add to my liked videos!
I'm aware that sirens make it easy to say, but the donut aoes are the Akadaemia Anyder boss Quetzalcoatl. Other than that, great guide as always, very informative and straight to the point! o/
Do you use gshade? if so what preset/settings?
Although I cleared Zodiark over 20 times now I watched the whole video and gave it a like. Not much but maybe it will help you grow. The Guides you did are straightforward and easy to understand (especially the diagram to show the safespots, its not always easy to see it in the in-game footage). You deserve it
How do you pronounce those words lol
Your hydaelyn guide helped me and my friends clear on first lock out. Can't wait to give this a shot. Much love to your videos
Recently stumbled upon you with your Hydaelyn guide and was able to clear + farm it easy.
Yesterday I was wondering if you'd also make a guide for Zodiark and look here!
Thank you for the guides!
Thanks for the guides my man definitely one of the highest quality out there
Thanks
lmao B O O B A aoes
LOVE how succinct your guides are. Have a sub!
