In this video Xeno goes over all Final Fantasy XIV savage raids from the Shadowbringers expansion and makes a tier list based on experience during prog (progression), raid mechanics, fun and farm.
Which is the best Shadowbringers raid and which is the worst? Watch till the end to find Xeno’s opinion on this tier of Final Fantasy raids. May Shiva, Eden, Titan and The Oracle of Darkness duke it out in order to find out who is S tier and who is not.

My brain dead ass likes e10s D:
Totally agree Xemo. Even once my static cleared them, I pugged E4S and E12S a lot on my own time just because I enjoyed the fights and enjoyed getting other people their clears.
I highly agree with E8S. Most definitely lol
Edit: And E12s was so damn satisfying when you got through the big mechs like Lions, The Relativities, just all of it.
E12s wasn't farmable in pf, no way it can make S Tier with these 4 rules.
E11 was the best fight in the tier IMO. Simple yet quick, no fancy strats to learn to get 100% uptime on the boss.
cutscenes should be once per instance but i think this is beyond SE ability as a QoL
E6s would’ve been like S tier it weren’t for conflag strike.Spamming unmend while the dps are running a train on raktapasta didn’t feel too good.
I love these new vids Xeems I try and catch your streams but sometimes our schedules conflict and these help me catch up with ya. So thank you very much man.
E10 is fantastic :/ apart from that generic aoe it spams the fight is one ever-changing gauntlet that doesn't feel stale, with some nifty unique mechanics…am I living in a cave (with my static) or something because I don't see what the orb problem is…yeah we died to it but whenever it happened they admitted they were being dumdums. Usually the melee range players…[thinking]… FAR more interesting then everything in C and D in any case.
I'm a heal-job player but that is irrelevant for my hate towards E6S. I hate that fight overall, not just conflag. I can't even explain why but it just sucks as a whole
Editors be going overtime with xeno rants. Lots of things to cut out lmao.
if hed listen to the ingame music while playing the list may be different, i wonder
I personally hate every single fight where they try to pull off this "4D Chess" mechanics, and I feel like they overused it in Eden. I really don't like Eden at all save for Titan, and even that fight gets "soiled" because Party Finder INSISTED on some really stupid melee uptime dodge strat for the bombs.
I agree about the cutscenes. They've been adding more and more mid fight cutscenes and it's maddening
Would love to see a Stormblood raid tierlist!
The Cutscenes single handedly ruined monk and the amazing job identify that was greased lightning. -retired monk main
I mean, I liked e10s. I completely understand why everyone else hates it though.
so many wrong opinions
Wait i don’t remember e7s being nerfed. I thought it was simply they discovered the braindead portal strat. Someone plz correct me if im wrong
Awesome to see your vods edited on yt now. Great video!
Does he have previous expansions raid tiers list? I think he doesn't in youtube at least :C very sad…
I feel like people know this, but the cutscenes are for you to take a break and reset your cooldowns. get up and stretch, get some water.
they're not in there just because they want to be cinematic, they're there because long fights are harder and they want to give you a break.
I do agree they should just do door bosses instead, though.
garuda and ifrit pissed me off when they gave garuda a new model and tossed it when they fused. they cut her screen time 🙁
I don't think the cutscenes are a problem as long as they separate the bosses (O4, 8, E12)
But yeah its awful to have to see it every pull like E1 and E8
Generally agree with your tiers but I loved Ifrit and CoD on a personal level. Think they should look at shortening the CS to a couple of frames for savage. Like you said it’s built into the fight but they don’t have to show the whole thing every time. Titan was the best fight but his mount should have been his car.
i would have put ramuh into S tbh
Fucking E8s a fight ruined by shitty strats and a terrible add phase and cutscene. I personally say that p3 is the best part of the shb raids. It was just fun to do
you say about e8s with it's cutscene, but e12s also has cutscene, am i just missing something there
My man you are actually hilarious. And yeah, conflag can go die in a hole, and then be set on fire. Conflag is already on fire? damnit.
E9S is one of the raids that get my static to laugh a lot. We laughed so hard as we prog the falling panel phases, especially in the beginning where they are so chaotic and we stumble a lot on each others' panels. Overall A as you said, but the mechanics' novelty is an S for me, at the same level as o3s!
My static meme'd the hell out of the shiva cutscene, still love the fight but never again lol
The fact the portals in E7S were a joke compared to normal should have put it in ???.
I honestly think that e8s prog was dope tbh but not so much on farm. I've been away from gaming so i kinda like just returned & downed e9s & e10s but lost complete interest on getting BiS when i tried e11s i seriously find everything about the fight extremely boring.
What is the music at the outro of your videos?
Honestly the orbs were the only mechanic my group didn't like in E10S, so we cheesed it with lots of shielding and the fight instantly became much better. I really liked the shadow facing mechanics and even as a melee, I thought the fight flowed really well with the orbs being the only real exception. Lots of variation on how you can handle the people shadows and pitch bog was nice as well.
being bias, of course, Titan was my first on-content savage tier done, so gate holds a special place with me. I loved progging Titan, still one of the most fun fights to me.
I also agree on Shiva, Promise, and especially Shadowdog. 10 is just boring and bull at the same time
Them cutscenes be hype as hell though
What app does Xeno use to draw on the screen?
