The warder Erichthonios has brought with him the chilling news that all creations within Asphodelos, the highest level of Pandæmonium, now run free of their fetters. In order to prevent total chaos from bursting forth unto the world above, Themis and Erichthonios plan to utilize interment magicks to safely capture any errant creatures─if their theory translates well into practice, that is. With only one way to find out, you head for the waterways to confront a monster of legend, the water-wielding hippokampos.

— In-game description

Asphodelos: The Second Circle is a level 90 raid introduced in patch 6.01 with Endwalker.

Phases & Abilities

Aggressive difficulty r6.png Mythic Creation: The Hippokampos

The Hippokampos does powerful AoE attacks that layer with each other aggressively, forcing the raid to dodge on tiny platforms.

Murky Depths

Unavoidable raidwide damage after a moderate cast.


Doubled Impact

Tank Stack. Both tanks (and no one else) should stack for this attack.


Spoken Cataract

This attack hits twice... once on a wide line front to back on the Hippokampus itself, and once on the side of the arena that the tail is pointing towards. Move to the side of the Hippokampus that the tail (the red ring) is not pointing to.


Sewage Deluge

Phase transition. Raidewide damage, and floods the entire arena with water. The only safe place to stand are the four raised platforms, and the grates between them. The rest of the arena inflicts moderate water elemental damage over time to anyone who steps in it.


Predatory Sight

Stack triangles. Deals unavoidable damage, and inflicts vulnerability to anyone who isn't touching another player when it goes off.


Disassociation

Hippokampus detaches their head before growing a new one. The head flies to the edge of the arean, where it floats for a while before doing an attack that hits the entire half of the arena it is facing. This attack goes off during the Hippokampus's next attack.


Coherance

Hippokampus targets one player with a flare marker (three white arrows) and another with a stack line marker. Everyone without the flare marker should stack, while the remaining player should run away from the raid.


Sewage Eruption

Puts targeted AoEs under most of the raid repeatedly. This attack is not dangerous when the arena is free from obstructions, but if Sewage Deluge has flooded most of the arena and Disassociation is about to hit half of the playfield, it is very easy to run out of places to go. The raid should stack up during the Sewage Erruption cast and escape from the AoEs together, so the AoEs stack up and don't fill the platforms completely.


Shockwave

Hippokampus will leap to a spot on the floor and push the entire raid away from him. Don't get pushed into the death field surrounding the arena. Often this attack is combined with Sewage Deluge or Disassociation.


Tainted Flood

Red targeted aoes hit most of the raid, who should spread out to minimize damage. Most dangerous during Sewage Deluge, when players should spread out one player to a platform and one player to a grate.
