{{#ev:youtube|WxRnbt7swds|350|right|The Weeping City of Mhach Guide Part One}}
* After taking some damage, Arachne Eve will call the alliance up into her web.
{{#ev:youtube|Gl9UHqDsECY|350|right|The Weeping City of Mhach Guide Part Two}}
    * One alliance needs to find and kill a small spider add to tear a hole in the web and drop down to the level below, where they will focus down the pillars that surround the arena and the adds that appear.
    * Meanwhile, the alliance on the web needs to absorb damage from blue orbs and kill purple orbs in order to avoid buffing the boss.
    * After all the pillars are destroyed, the boss and all alliance members will fall to ground level.
* When the boss casts a tornado-like AoE that pulls everyone to the center of the room, players must stand on webs on the ground to avoid being pulled.
* When you see the boss cast Fond Affeared, look away or you will suffer a Feared debuff that stuns you for 10 seconds.
 
===Forgall===
* (Mega Death) - stand in the green puddle to gain a stack of Gradual Zombification - this lets you avoid getting killed instantly by Mega Death
    * Green puddles give you a stack of Gradual Zombification - if you get multiple stacks you will turn into a zombie and attack your allies
 
* (Void Call) - Forgall will summon three adds - burn down the Summoned Succubus first and stun her Beguiling Mist
    * Another add (Summoned Haagenti) will also cast Mortal Gaze - if you don't face away from the add at the end of this cast, the Doom debuff will be applied and must be cleansed by healers.
    * Stack up for heals after the adds die
 
* (Brand of the Fallen) - Throughout the fight, players will periodically be marked with red arrows - all marked players must group together to avoid large damage and Toad status.
 
* (Hell Wind) - healers need to mass heal


* (Punishing Ray) One person needs to stand in each red pillar
==== Phase 1 ====
Throughout this phase, the boss casts ''Dark Spike'', a tankbuster, and ''Silken Spray'', a tail swipe which knocks you back and gives you the {{status effect|heavy}} '''[[Heavy]]''' debuff. [[Heavy]] can be removed with {{action icon|Esuna}}. Later, it randomly selects three players with orange target markers that places webs at their location. At this phase, it doesn't matter where the webs are located. Next, random players are targeted with green spread markers. Anyone caught in the ring gets tethered with the Seized debuff and other players have to walk into the tether to break you free.


===Ozma===
The boss burrows to the ground and a series of ring AoEs appear starting from the center. Right after the last ring AoE, a proximity marker appears, which is where the boss pops up. Sometimes right after, some players are marked with the green spread markers.
*Sphere form: Ozma begins in sphere form, which is the "safe" form. During this form he will cast delayed Meteor spells that display their AoE in a purple circle, marking players - players should try to spread out the damage from these as much as possible to avoid party members being hit by multiple meteors. Multiple meteors overlapping their blast radius will deal immense damage. Usually these are placed to the back of the rectangular platform, and to the round part on your left.
*Pyramid form: In pyramid form Ozma will cast a single high-damage AoE on the long rectangular platforms when he finishes transforming, so players should move to the circular sections. During this phase Acceleration Bomb can be applied to players, and deals heavy AoE damage to players that move or act when it expires. Additionally, members are randomly hit by a weak AoE that places a powerful stacking DoT on all members hit. Healers should cleanse these.
*Cube form: At the beginning of cube form, Ozma will cast a large donut shaped AoE, causing moderate damage to anyone not standing close to him on the rectangular platform and apply Vulnerability stacks. Damaging orbs will orbit the platform, and cleaving laser blasts will target the tanks. When he casts the tornado, make sure the alliance is standing on one corner to Ozma and the tank on the other one. DPS and healers should stand on the rectangular platforms out of the path of the orbs, while tanks move to the circular sections to soak lasers and orbs. During this phase, he will also cast Holy, which deals a moderate amount of damage and knocks players a small distance away from Ozma. It is best to stand on the edge of the platform close to him to dodge the spheres and not fall off. Acceleration Bomb can also be applied during this phase.
*After taking some damage, Ozma will cast Black Hole and suck the party into him. There are two phases to this part of the fight. First, the parties will be separated into three platforms with Atomos enemies on them, which should be focused down immediately. Each party will have to stand in a circle that makes another party's Atomos vulnerable to damage (the same as the Atomos fight in Labyrinth of the Ancients). After the Atomos enemies are defeated, finish off the last of the adds and jump down to fight Ozma's shadow. During this phase, face away from the boss when he casts Assimilation, and if you are marked with a meteor run to a corner to avoid unnecessary raid damage. It's worth noting that this entire phase is a moderate DPS check - if players are inside Ozma for too long, Doomsday will finish casting, wiping the raid.
*After defeating the shadow, a portal will open that returns you to the main platform. The meteor effect from sphere form will return, but with more AoEs; one possible strategy is to have two people from each alliance stand in the back corners of the rectangular platforms, with the remaining players placing their AoE's anywhere that doesn't threaten other alliances.


Rinse and repeat.
==== Phase 2: Web ====
In this phase, the boss pulls everyone up to her web.  


General Notes:
One group must find and kill a small spider, Spitting Spider, to make a hole in the web and drop down to the ground below. Then destroy the pillars called Keyknot, that surround the arena and kill any adds.</br>'''''NOTE''''': A random player on the ground level may get targeted and tethered that brings them back up to the upper web level.
*You can fall off so be careful
*Meteors (Black AOEs) - move these away from the group and don't stack them
**Place one Meteor in the back of your platform, the other on the ring to your left
**Singularity Fragment adds spawn where they land
*Acceleration Bomb - don't move or attack, or you'll get a cube countdown above your head and explode


Ozma's Forms:
Meanwhile, the others on the web must absorb the blue orbs and destroy the purple orbs, Deep Earth Aether, to avoid buffing the boss. Make sure to avoid the yellow webs on the ground. They give you the Digestive Fluid debuff that slows you down and small damage over time. During this phase, the boss continuously casts ''Implosion'', which is an unavoidable room-wide damage.
*Sphere - safest form - he casts Meteor in this form
After all the pillars are destroyed, the boss and everyone on the web will fall to ground level.
*Pyramid - he opens with a high damage attack on the long platform, move to the ring when he transforms to avoid this
**He'll apply Bleed to people, spread out to keep it from spreading
*Cube - stick close to him to avoid knockback, tanks and healers soak orbs


Black Hole:
==== Phase 3 ====
*When you're sucked in, stand on the platform and burn Atmos
This phase is similar to the first phase, but more mechanics are introduced. Stack when the boss casts ''Shadow Burst''. If you are marked, stand within melee distance so people can stack with you. Later, it will cast ''Fond Affeared'', which is a Gaze mechanic. Look away or you get {{status effect|hysteria}} '''[[Hysteria]]'''.
**Adds cast Paralyze III - stun this
*Face away from the Ozma's Shade when he casts Assimilation
*If you take too long you'll wipe to Doomsday


===Calofisteri===
This time, if you are targeted with the orange marker, you must go to the outer arena to place the webs away from the center. The boss burrows in the ground and casts a room-wide, tornado-like AoE called ''Widow’s Kiss''. The AoE sucks everyone to the center and will kill anyone at the center or close to the center where the boss comes back up. Get on a sticky web to avoid getting sucked in.</br> '''''NOTE''''': Anyone standing on a web close to the center can also receive high damage or die.
Haircut is always where her hair's blade is visually represented on her model (bleed can be cleansed. Strong bleed). The boss' main attacks cause a cleave on the side of her blade. Move far away from extension telegraphs as they pull you in even when you're not standing on them. If the adds spawning from extension are not killed in time, the person trapped inside will die, and it will suck another person in and repeat. Focus these ASAP.


There will be a phase where she summons multiple Bijous and Small Bijous. Focus the Small Bijous down first as they finish their Energize cast sooner, and then burn the Bijous. Every Energize cast powers up her next raidwide AoE and will wipe if she has too much damage.
After this, the boss repeats each phase until it’s killed.


When the axe and bulb flowers spawn, look for the axe flower and stay near them to avoid their donut AoE. The bulbs will cause for a damage and knockup under and around them. Depth Charge will make the boss charge towards the wall, usually follows with Haircut. Make sure to watch where her blade is and dodge Depth charge on her safe side. Reposition the boss afterwards.
==== Overview of Skills and Abilities ====
 
{| {{STDT|mech1}}
Penetration will pull you towards the center if you're looking at the boss, and will push you away if you're not. Bulb flowers will spawn and you will be pushed into them if you don't stand on an open spot. Try to position yourself to be pushed towards the empty spots of the arena to avoid these. When 2 blade flowers spawn just move away from the center. Red markers on players is just like the Cloud of Darkness marker, periodically raining damaging blasts down upon the player's location, so just run away from everybody and keep running to dodge these.
|+ class="nowrap" |
 
Try to keep the boss around the middle of the arena, as it will often pick a side and do a huge AOE (the whole half of the area she is facing) that usually kill anyone caught in it. Don't tank her on the edge, as you might have just a tiny safe spot and will most likely result in a wipe.
 
When she stops and looks toward a direction get away from her front side and move to the middle, as after dealing damage straight ahead of her she'll do one of her deadly AOE.

===[[File:Aggressive difficulty r6.png|link=]] [[Forgall]]===
==== Phase 1 ====
The boss summons adds called, Shriveled Talon. Kill the adds before ''Necropurge'' is done casting. After Necropurge is casted, green puddles appear under random players. Avoid the puddle so you don’t get the Gradual Zombification debuff. If you get more than one, then you gain Zombification and become a zombie.
Later, the boss casts ''Punishing Ray'' that has multiple purple towers throughout the arena. Each tower needs one person standing on it, which gives you Bleed, a minor damage. Sometimes, the boss casts ''Megiddo Flame'', while the towers are still out. If the column AoE is overlapping the tower, wait for the column AoE to pass first before stepping onto the tower puddle.
[[File:Weepingcity-poisonmist.png|link=|thumb|Poison Mist|200px|right]]
When ''Brand of the Fallen'' is cast, stack with others who have the same marker to avoid damage and the Toad debuff. ''Evil Mist'' gives unavoidable room-wide damage and spawns Poison Mists throughout the arena. Avoid the mists during this phase because they eventually turn into green puddles.
==== Phase 2: Adds ====
The boss summons three adds:
*Summoned Succubus
*Summoned Haagenti
*Summoned Dahak
Kill the Succubus first and stun the succubus when it casts ''Beguiling Mist''. ''Beguiling Mist'' gives you Seduce which mind controls and leads you to death. The Haagenti also casts ''Mortal Ray''. Look away or you get {{status effect|doom}} '''[[Doom (status effect)|Doom]]'''. [[Healer]]s can use {{action icon|Esuna}} to remove {{status effect|doom}} '''[[Doom (status effect)|Doom]]''' if anyone doesn’t look away.
After the ads are killed, the boss finishes casting ''Mana Explosion'', an unavoidable room-wide damage.
==== Phase 3 ====
This phase is similar to the first but with some new mechanics, especially ''Mega Death''.
After the boss casts ''Necropurge'', stand on the green puddles to gain the Gradual Zombification debuff. You need this debuff to survive ''Mega Death''. After the boss casts ''Mega Death'', tall black wine cups pop up throughout the arena and '''anyone without the debuff instantly dies/wipes'''. </br>'''''Note''''': Turning into a zombie also avoids death.
The boss can cast ''Dark Eruption'' which targets random players that drop fire puddles. Dump these puddles away from everyone while avoiding them. Just like with ''Punishing Ray'', ''Megiddo Flame'' can also appear at the same time as ''Dark Eruption''. Make sure to avoid these columns while placing the puddles away from everyone. Later, [[Healer]]s need to quickly mass heal everyone after ''Hell Wind'' is cast. This is a room-wide damage that’s unavoidable and depletes everyone’s HP to extreme lows.
This time, when the boss casts ''Evil Mist'', stand next to a Poison Mist to get Gradual Zombification. After the boss starts casting ''Mega Death'', and the mists turn into green puddles when they cast ''Necropurge''. </br>'''''Note''''': There isn’t much time to reach the puddle once it appears because the mist’s cast time for ''Necropurge'' isn’t long. Make sure to stand next to the mists right when they appear so you can get the debuff on time.

<nowiki>*</nowiki><small>Italicized words are names of casts that are shown in the cast bar.</small>
===[[File:Aggressive difficulty r1.png|link=]] Headstone===
This is a mini-boss.
Each alliance should split between the three main platforms. When Void Fire spawns on both ends, the parties on both sides must kill the fire quickly before it finishes casting ''Big Burst''. Then kill the add, Parthenope. Each side will get cut off with a wall until all Parthenopes are killed.
When the mini boss starts casting ''Flaring Epigraph'', the red circle on each side and the middle needs to be stepped on to create a shield in the middle platform. Everyone should get in the shield to avoid death.
===[[File:Aggressive difficulty r6.png|link=]] [[Ozma]]===
The boss changes into three different forms throughout the fight that use different skills and actions in each form:
* Sphere form
* Pyramid form
* Cube form
'''''Note''''': This area has no ''invisible'' walls, and you ''can'' walk over the edge to your death at any time. So, make sure you don’t fall off to your death!
==== <big>Phase 1</big> ====
For the first phase, the boss attacks in sphere form then changes to a pyramid or cube form, then changes back to the sphere form and starts the next phase.
</br>'''''Note''''': You must pay attention to each form because this boss doesn’t provide any AoE markers and cast bars for any of its AoE attacks.
===== Sphere Form =====
This is the default form, which is the "safe" form. During this phase, it targets one person from each party with a red-black spread marker. Marked players should go to the left side of the ring by default. These markers place proximity markers where the target players stand, and Singularity Fragments spawn at these marker locations. Make sure the black circles aren’t overlapping too much. If Singularity Fragments spawn too close to each other, they explode, hitting everyone with Debris Burst, an unavoidable, room-wide damage, and gives the {{status effect|damage down}} '''[[Damage Down]]''' debuff. Debris Burst is also proximity based so any parties close to the explosion receive high damage and even death.
Kill the adds when they spawn and avoid their AoEs when they cast ''Tornado''. In the last phase, the boss targets two players in each party so spread out by going to the left side of the ring and the back of the rectangular platform. If there aren’t many players alive, it targets random players across all parties so a party may even end up with four targeted players.
</br>'''''Note''''': If a targeted player falls off the platform, the marker is placed in the back of the rectangular platform where the players spawn points are located. This could potentially cause Debris Burst, if another targeted player places their marker in the back, which ends up with two markers placed right next to each other.
The boss also randomly targets a player with a stack marker that gives Magic Vulnerability Up.
</br>'''''Note''''': If you take too long to kill the boss, it can target another player with the stack marker. The alliance can’t survive more than one Meteor attack so it’s very important to kill the boss quickly.
===== Pyramid Form =====
Once the boss changes to pyramid form, immediately go to the ring section to the left and right of the rectangular platform. It shoots a large, line AoE across the rectangular platforms and gives you the Poison and Timer debuff. It can also shrink you for 12 seconds with the Minimum debuff.  [[Healer]]s can use {{action icon|Esuna}} to remove {{status effect|poison}} '''[[Poison]]''' and Timer but not Minimum.
Afterwards, it randomly hits players with Bleeding that gives Bleed. Bleed splashes to nearby players and can stack, so [[Healer]]s should heal and remove Bleed with {{action icon|Esuna}}.


===Ozma Loot===
It also casts ''Acceleration Bomb'' giving random players the Acceleration debuff. Starting at three, a dice marker is placed on top of the player and counts down. Sheathe your weapon immediately and stop moving before the countdown ends. Movement and using any skills including auto-attack by the time the countdown ends can cause high damage and even death. Sheathing your weapon should stop all attacks and skills.
* 30 [[Allagan Tomestones of Lore]]
</br> '''''Note''''': The default key is Z to sheathe your weapon.
{| class="wikitable sortable" style="text-align:center"
 
===== Cube Form =====
Once the boss changes to cube form, immediately stand right next to the boss on the rectangular platform (inside of the ring). It casts a large, donut AoE on the ring platform. Anyone caught in the AoE gets a {{status effect|vulnerability up}} '''[[Vulnerability Up]]''' stack.
Right after its AoE attack, tanks must separate from the party as the boss targets and shoots lasers at the tanks. The lasers cleave anyone caught in its path. Meanwhile, tanks should soak the orbs called Ozmasphere that float around the ring and everyone else should be in the back or front of the rectangular platform. When soaked, Ozmaspheres explode with high damage to you and anyone nearby so [[Healer]]s should pay attention to both tanks and anyone absorbing the orbs. If you leave the Ozmaspheres alone, they randomly attack you.
The boss also casts ''Holy'', which deals a moderate amount of damage and knocks players back a bit. Make sure to stand close to the boss on the rectangular platform to not fall off.
 
==== <big>Phase 2: Ozmashade</big> ====
The boss casts Black Hole and swallows everyone inside it. This phase is a DPS check, so everyone must destroy Ozmashade to create a portal before the ''Doomsday'' timer is finished, which wipes the raid. There are two parts to this phase.
Each party is separated into three platforms with a Singularity Echo. At least one player must stand on the circle and the party must kill the Echo quickly and any spawned adds. After the Echos and the adds are killed, jump down to fight Ozmashade.</br>'''''Note''''': If players aren’t standing on the circle, the other parties can’t kill their Echo. It’s the same strategy used in [[The Labyrinth of the Ancients]] when attacking [[Atomos]].
 
Jump down and quickly destroy Ozmashade. When Ozmashade casts ''Assimilation'', look away. If you didn’t and got the Assimilation debuff, turn your character away from the boss until the debuff is gone or you get trapped in a Singularity Goal. Other players have to destroy the goal to free you. Ozmashade also marks random players with red spread markers. Run to a corner away from everyone to place the proximity marker. After destroying Ozmashade, go to the center where the portal takes you back to the main platform. If you don’t destroy Ozmashade before the ''Doomsday'' timer runs out, it casts ''Doomsday'' and wipes the raid.
 
==== <big>Phase 3</big> ====
This phase is the same as Phase 1, but more mechanics are introduced and the boss cycles through all forms.

<nowiki>*</nowiki><small>Italicized words are names of casts that are shown in the cast bar.</small>
===[[File:Aggressive difficulty r6.png|link=]] [[Calofisteri]]===
====Phase 1====
* '''Haircut''' sweeps the left or right side of the boss and is visually indicated when either side of her hair turns into a stinger blade. (<font color="FE8D53">"'''''Calofisteri's hair begins to take on another shape...'''''"</font>). When struck this applies a {{status effect|bleed}} '''[[Bleed|Flesh Wound]]''' that can be cleansed.
* Avoid the '''Extension''' telegraphs which will still pull you in when standing near them. If the <font color="4ec9b0">'''Entanglement'''</font> tentacles spawning from extension are not killed in time, the players trapped inside will die ('''Garrote''').
====Phase 2: Bijous and Living Locks====
This phase is signaled with <font color="FE8D53">"'''''Calofisteri is drawing power from her jewel'''''"</font>.
* She summons <font color="4ec9b0">'''Bijous'''</font> and <font color="4ec9b0">'''Grand Bijous'''</font>. Focus the smaller Bijous down first as they finish their '''Energize''' cast sooner, and then the Grand Bijous. Every Energize cast powers up her next raidwide AoE ('''Dancing Mad''').
** Random players will also be targeted with a chasing AoE marker and should run along the edge of the arena to avoid damaging other players.
* When the axe and bulb flowers spawn (untargetable <font color="4ec9b0">'''Living Locks'''</font>), look for the axe flower and stay near them to avoid their donut AoE. The bulb flowers will knockup any nearby players into the air ({{status effect|vulnerability up}} '''Evil Tress''').
* '''Penetration''' will pull you towards the center into three bulb flowers if you're ''looking'' at the boss, and will push you away if you're not. (<font color="FE8D53">"'''''Calofisteri's hair begins to take root!'''''"</font>). Try to position yourself to be pushed towards the empty spots of the arena to avoid these.
* '''Depth Charge''' will make the boss charge towards the wall, followed by a '''Haircut'''. Make sure to watch where her blade is to avoid it. Tanks might want to reposition her back in the middle of the platform.
* Two blade shaped flowers will spawn that shoot a red beam from the sides of the platform across the center {{status effect|vulnerability up}}.
====Notes====
: [[File:Tank role.png|20px|link=]] Her auto attack move '''Bloodied Nail''' is a frontal cleave so avoid turning the boss directly infront of the raid. While either side of her hair turns into a blade, the auto attack '''Split End''' will cleave the side of her blade.
: [[File:Tank role.png|20px|link=]] Try to keep the boss around the middle of the arena, as it will often pick a side and do a huge AOE with '''Haircut'''. Tanks can also anticipate this and direct the AoE away from the raid by turning the boss. Avoid tanking her on the edge, as you might have just a tiny safe spot and will most likely result in a wipe.

The Weeping City of Mhach Guide Part One
The Weeping City of Mhach Guide Part Two

Phase 1

Throughout this phase, the boss casts Dark Spike, a tankbuster, and Silken Spray, a tail swipe which knocks you back and gives you the Heavy icon1.png Heavy debuff. Heavy can be removed with Esuna.png  Esuna. Later, it randomly selects three players with orange target markers that places webs at their location. At this phase, it doesn't matter where the webs are located. Next, random players are targeted with green spread markers. Anyone caught in the ring gets tethered with the Seized debuff and other players have to walk into the tether to break you free.

The boss burrows to the ground and a series of ring AoEs appear starting from the center. Right after the last ring AoE, a proximity marker appears, which is where the boss pops up. Sometimes right after, some players are marked with the green spread markers.

Phase 2: Web

In this phase, the boss pulls everyone up to her web.

One group must find and kill a small spider, Spitting Spider, to make a hole in the web and drop down to the ground below. Then destroy the pillars called Keyknot, that surround the arena and kill any adds.
NOTE: A random player on the ground level may get targeted and tethered that brings them back up to the upper web level.

Meanwhile, the others on the web must absorb the blue orbs and destroy the purple orbs, Deep Earth Aether, to avoid buffing the boss. Make sure to avoid the yellow webs on the ground. They give you the Digestive Fluid debuff that slows you down and small damage over time. During this phase, the boss continuously casts Implosion, which is an unavoidable room-wide damage. After all the pillars are destroyed, the boss and everyone on the web will fall to ground level.

Phase 3

This phase is similar to the first phase, but more mechanics are introduced. Stack when the boss casts Shadow Burst. If you are marked, stand within melee distance so people can stack with you. Later, it will cast Fond Affeared, which is a Gaze mechanic. Look away or you get Hysteria icon1.png Hysteria.

This time, if you are targeted with the orange marker, you must go to the outer arena to place the webs away from the center. The boss burrows in the ground and casts a room-wide, tornado-like AoE called Widow’s Kiss. The AoE sucks everyone to the center and will kill anyone at the center or close to the center where the boss comes back up. Get on a sticky web to avoid getting sucked in.
NOTE: Anyone standing on a web close to the center can also receive high damage or die.

After this, the boss repeats each phase until it’s killed.

Aggressive difficulty r6.png Forgall

Phase 1

The boss summons adds called, Shriveled Talon. Kill the adds before Necropurge is done casting. After Necropurge is casted, green puddles appear under random players. Avoid the puddle so you don’t get the Gradual Zombification debuff. If you get more than one, then you gain Zombification and become a zombie. Later, the boss casts Punishing Ray that has multiple purple towers throughout the arena. Each tower needs one person standing on it, which gives you Bleed, a minor damage. Sometimes, the boss casts Megiddo Flame, while the towers are still out. If the column AoE is overlapping the tower, wait for the column AoE to pass first before stepping onto the tower puddle.

Poison Mist

When Brand of the Fallen is cast, stack with others who have the same marker to avoid damage and the Toad debuff. Evil Mist gives unavoidable room-wide damage and spawns Poison Mists throughout the arena. Avoid the mists during this phase because they eventually turn into green puddles.

Phase 2: Adds

The boss summons three adds:

  • Summoned Succubus
  • Summoned Haagenti
  • Summoned Dahak

Kill the Succubus first and stun the succubus when it casts Beguiling Mist. Beguiling Mist gives you Seduce which mind controls and leads you to death. The Haagenti also casts Mortal Ray. Look away or you get Doom Doom. Healers can use Esuna.png  Esuna to remove Doom Doom if anyone doesn’t look away. After the ads are killed, the boss finishes casting Mana Explosion, an unavoidable room-wide damage.

Phase 3

This phase is similar to the first but with some new mechanics, especially Mega Death.

After the boss casts Necropurge, stand on the green puddles to gain the Gradual Zombification debuff. You need this debuff to survive Mega Death. After the boss casts Mega Death, tall black wine cups pop up throughout the arena and anyone without the debuff instantly dies/wipes.
Note: Turning into a zombie also avoids death.

The boss can cast Dark Eruption which targets random players that drop fire puddles. Dump these puddles away from everyone while avoiding them. Just like with Punishing Ray, Megiddo Flame can also appear at the same time as Dark Eruption. Make sure to avoid these columns while placing the puddles away from everyone. Later, Healers need to quickly mass heal everyone after Hell Wind is cast. This is a room-wide damage that’s unavoidable and depletes everyone’s HP to extreme lows.

This time, when the boss casts Evil Mist, stand next to a Poison Mist to get Gradual Zombification. After the boss starts casting Mega Death, and the mists turn into green puddles when they cast Necropurge.
Note: There isn’t much time to reach the puddle once it appears because the mist’s cast time for Necropurge isn’t long. Make sure to stand next to the mists right when they appear so you can get the debuff on time.

Overview of Skills and Abilities

Skill/Action* Description Amt of Damage AOE?
Necropurge Avoid standing in green puddles unless boss is casting Mega Death Small
Megiddo Flame Multiple column AoEs High-Death X
Punishing Ray One person stands on each red pillar Small-Death
Evil Mist Unavoidable room-wide damage and avoid mists unless boss is cast Mega Death Medium
Void Call Summons three adds; Kill succubus first
Brand of the Fallen Marked players group together Low-High
Hell Wind Unavoidable room-wide damage High X
Dark Eruption - Orange target marker
- Dump the fire puddles away from everyone
Medium
Mega Death Immediately stand on green puddle to avoid death or stand next to an orb Death

*Italicized words are names of casts that are shown in the cast bar.

Aggressive difficulty r1.png Headstone

This is a mini-boss. Each alliance should split between the three main platforms. When Void Fire spawns on both ends, the parties on both sides must kill the fire quickly before it finishes casting Big Burst. Then kill the add, Parthenope. Each side will get cut off with a wall until all Parthenopes are killed. When the mini boss starts casting Flaring Epigraph, the red circle on each side and the middle needs to be stepped on to create a shield in the middle platform. Everyone should get in the shield to avoid death.

Aggressive difficulty r6.png Ozma

The boss changes into three different forms throughout the fight that use different skills and actions in each form:

  • Sphere form
  • Pyramid form
  • Cube form

Note: This area has no invisible walls, and you can walk over the edge to your death at any time. So, make sure you don’t fall off to your death!

Phase 1

For the first phase, the boss attacks in sphere form then changes to a pyramid or cube form, then changes back to the sphere form and starts the next phase.
Note: You must pay attention to each form because this boss doesn’t provide any AoE markers and cast bars for any of its AoE attacks.

Sphere Form

This is the default form, which is the "safe" form. During this phase, it targets one person from each party with a red-black spread marker. Marked players should go to the left side of the ring by default. These markers place proximity markers where the target players stand, and Singularity Fragments spawn at these marker locations. Make sure the black circles aren’t overlapping too much. If Singularity Fragments spawn too close to each other, they explode, hitting everyone with Debris Burst, an unavoidable, room-wide damage, and gives the Damage Down icon1.png Damage Down debuff. Debris Burst is also proximity based so any parties close to the explosion receive high damage and even death. Kill the adds when they spawn and avoid their AoEs when they cast Tornado. In the last phase, the boss targets two players in each party so spread out by going to the left side of the ring and the back of the rectangular platform. If there aren’t many players alive, it targets random players across all parties so a party may even end up with four targeted players.
Note: If a targeted player falls off the platform, the marker is placed in the back of the rectangular platform where the players spawn points are located. This could potentially cause Debris Burst, if another targeted player places their marker in the back, which ends up with two markers placed right next to each other.

The boss also randomly targets a player with a stack marker that gives Magic Vulnerability Up.
Note: If you take too long to kill the boss, it can target another player with the stack marker. The alliance can’t survive more than one Meteor attack so it’s very important to kill the boss quickly.

Pyramid Form

Once the boss changes to pyramid form, immediately go to the ring section to the left and right of the rectangular platform. It shoots a large, line AoE across the rectangular platforms and gives you the Poison and Timer debuff. It can also shrink you for 12 seconds with the Minimum debuff. Healers can use Esuna.png  Esuna to remove Poison icon1.png Poison and Timer but not Minimum.

Afterwards, it randomly hits players with Bleeding that gives Bleed. Bleed splashes to nearby players and can stack, so Healers should heal and remove Bleed with Esuna.png  Esuna.

It also casts Acceleration Bomb giving random players the Acceleration debuff. Starting at three, a dice marker is placed on top of the player and counts down. Sheathe your weapon immediately and stop moving before the countdown ends. Movement and using any skills including auto-attack by the time the countdown ends can cause high damage and even death. Sheathing your weapon should stop all attacks and skills.
Note: The default key is Z to sheathe your weapon.

Cube Form

Once the boss changes to cube form, immediately stand right next to the boss on the rectangular platform (inside of the ring). It casts a large, donut AoE on the ring platform. Anyone caught in the AoE gets a Vulnerability Up icon1.png Vulnerability Up stack. Right after its AoE attack, tanks must separate from the party as the boss targets and shoots lasers at the tanks. The lasers cleave anyone caught in its path. Meanwhile, tanks should soak the orbs called Ozmasphere that float around the ring and everyone else should be in the back or front of the rectangular platform. When soaked, Ozmaspheres explode with high damage to you and anyone nearby so Healers should pay attention to both tanks and anyone absorbing the orbs. If you leave the Ozmaspheres alone, they randomly attack you. The boss also casts Holy, which deals a moderate amount of damage and knocks players back a bit. Make sure to stand close to the boss on the rectangular platform to not fall off.

Phase 2: Ozmashade

The boss casts Black Hole and swallows everyone inside it. This phase is a DPS check, so everyone must destroy Ozmashade to create a portal before the Doomsday timer is finished, which wipes the raid. There are two parts to this phase. Each party is separated into three platforms with a Singularity Echo. At least one player must stand on the circle and the party must kill the Echo quickly and any spawned adds. After the Echos and the adds are killed, jump down to fight Ozmashade.
Note: If players aren’t standing on the circle, the other parties can’t kill their Echo. It’s the same strategy used in The Labyrinth of the Ancients when attacking Atomos.

Jump down and quickly destroy Ozmashade. When Ozmashade casts Assimilation, look away. If you didn’t and got the Assimilation debuff, turn your character away from the boss until the debuff is gone or you get trapped in a Singularity Goal. Other players have to destroy the goal to free you. Ozmashade also marks random players with red spread markers. Run to a corner away from everyone to place the proximity marker. After destroying Ozmashade, go to the center where the portal takes you back to the main platform. If you don’t destroy Ozmashade before the Doomsday timer runs out, it casts Doomsday and wipes the raid.

Phase 3

This phase is the same as Phase 1, but more mechanics are introduced and the boss cycles through all forms.

*Italicized words are names of casts that are shown in the cast bar.

Aggressive difficulty r6.png Calofisteri

Phase 1

  • Haircut sweeps the left or right side of the boss and is visually indicated when either side of her hair turns into a stinger blade. ("Calofisteri's hair begins to take on another shape..."). When struck this applies a Bleed icon1.png Flesh Wound that can be cleansed.
  • Avoid the Extension telegraphs which will still pull you in when standing near them. If the Entanglement tentacles spawning from extension are not killed in time, the players trapped inside will die (Garrote).

Phase 2: Bijous and Living Locks

This phase is signaled with "Calofisteri is drawing power from her jewel".

  • She summons Bijous and Grand Bijous. Focus the smaller Bijous down first as they finish their Energize cast sooner, and then the Grand Bijous. Every Energize cast powers up her next raidwide AoE (Dancing Mad).
    • Random players will also be targeted with a chasing AoE marker and should run along the edge of the arena to avoid damaging other players.
  • When the axe and bulb flowers spawn (untargetable Living Locks), look for the axe flower and stay near them to avoid their donut AoE. The bulb flowers will knockup any nearby players into the air (Vulnerability Up icon1.png Evil Tress).
  • Penetration will pull you towards the center into three bulb flowers if you're looking at the boss, and will push you away if you're not. ("Calofisteri's hair begins to take root!"). Try to position yourself to be pushed towards the empty spots of the arena to avoid these.
  • Depth Charge will make the boss charge towards the wall, followed by a Haircut. Make sure to watch where her blade is to avoid it. Tanks might want to reposition her back in the middle of the platform.
  • Two blade shaped flowers will spawn that shoot a red beam from the sides of the platform across the center Vulnerability Up icon1.png.

Notes

Tank role.png Her auto attack move Bloodied Nail is a frontal cleave so avoid turning the boss directly infront of the raid. While either side of her hair turns into a blade, the auto attack Split End will cleave the side of her blade.
Tank role.png Try to keep the boss around the middle of the arena, as it will often pick a side and do a huge AOE with Haircut. Tanks can also anticipate this and direct the AoE away from the raid by turning the boss. Avoid tanking her on the edge, as you might have just a tiny safe spot and will most likely result in a wipe.

Duty Dialogue

Cait Sith: My dear Yafaem...
What a wretched morass it has become.
Cait Sith: Do you spy that wreckage up ahead?
Could it be one of the Talons' downed vessels?
Arachne Eve: Gaha! There were more of you blood—filled morsels!?
How well I will sup this day!
Arachne Eve: Nasty little insects!
You will not scurry so within my web!
Arachne Eve: Bah! Not strong enough! Not strong enough!
I must feed on more than flesh!
Arachne Eve: See what you have done!
My poor web is in tatters!
Arachne Eve: Are you frightened, my precious prey?
Gaze into my eyes and know true terror!
Arachne Eve: What manner of prey...bites back?
I must warn...Lord Forgall...
Cait Sith: Is this not a tributary of the White Maiden? 
We should come upon Mhach if we follow it downstream!
Cait Sith: <cough> <splutter> I am not terribly fond of water...
Cait Sith: We aim for that pyramidal structure, but ware the voidsent.
The air is thick with their otherworldly stench...
Forgall: Ah, some of you survived. How convenient.
I am in need of fresh souls to shatter the ward.
Forgall: Even empty husks have their uses. 
See how they jerk and dance at my command!
Forgall: I will teach those who oppose me the extent of their folly...
Forgall: Your pititful lives will be mine in due time.
But first, you must be punished for your insolence!
Forgall: Solitutde weakens the spirit and warps the flesh...
Stray from the pack at your peril!
Forgall: My undead toys are so easily broken.
Mayhap my minions will prove the sturdier...
Forgall: How tiresome. I had thought to spare my energies for the ward.
But you insisit on gripping to life so very tightly...
Forgall: Embrace your fate! By my stygian light be your doom revealed!
Forgall: My lord warned that mortals of power might interfere...
But you are not threat to me! I reign in the court of the void!
Forgall: Will you glimpse the realm that awairs you after death?
Drink deep from the chalice of oblivion!
Forgall: Ah, how sweet the rancid breeze of the underhells...
It's winds will strip you to the bone!
Forgall: <cough> After so long...I am arisen...
I will not...be buried here...
Cait Sith: Ah, the wonders of Mhachi architecture. Fifteen centuries and a flood later, and still it stands.
Headstone: Body of rock, from rough stone hewn...
Chipped with chisel and marked by rune...
Headstone: Departing now, the maker's spark...
A shattered face, stone eyes grown dark...
Cait Sith: Barring our way is a terrible sphere that has devoured entire cities. 
We must prove the stronger if we are to reach the Nullstone.
Cait Sith: This is it: the Tomb of the Nullstone.
There will be a guardian. There is always a guardian...
Calofisteri: Know your slayer, intruders. I am Calofisteri, and by the blood of voidsent have I ascended to the sublime...
Calofisteri: Behold my magnificent mane!
These curls are blades that cut, and roots that drain!
Calofisteri: Shall I share my luscious locks with you?
Calofisteri: Unkempt thieves! Slovenly marauders!
You will not have the Nullstone!
Calofisteri: Have you ever witnessed such coifed perfection!?
The edges of my tresses are sharper than swords!
Calofisteri: ...Why do you yet stand? I have supped on the void!
What ungodly power swims in your veins?
Calofisteri: Do you dare face the halo of my unleashed glory? 
Or turn your back and risk the sting of my rejection?
Calofisteri: My pride is clipped... My strength is shorn...
The Nullstone is yours...
