Alright, so a few things about this series for anyone new, and even some veterans: -These are moments I chose myself without anyone's input because I like to keep them a surprise. Patrons got to look over them to make sure I didn't miss anything, but they're mostly chosen by me. -Some clips highlight more than one member, so those clips will be included in the vids of each relevant member. It's not an accident. -No, we didn't do Diamond Weapon because we didn't want to stop progging E12S and we weren't hurting for damage enough to drop everything to get the weapons. We never made it in as a group afterwards either so, while unfortunate, there are still some reclear clips in here to make up for it. -We never did DR either but that's mostly because half the group's Primal characters are alts and they haven't unlocked all the stuff. That and I got swept up in finishing everything off before the next expac. -The prior two points can also be summed up in the fact that I had to draw a hard line somewhere as to where these would cut off so I wouldn't be gathering footage up until a week before the next expac. This isn't hard content to put together, but it was 16 hours of video already and making sure they're all as flawless as possible is stressful enough as it is. -This little disclaimer will be in every vid in case people coming in later start viewing them in random order.
It's fun watching Corey's relationship with Sophie go from "Corey-senpai is alright, I'll just adjust" to "I SWEAR TO EVERY GOD YOU CAN NAME, COREY, IF YOU KILL SOMEONE AGAIN I'LL JUST DRAG YOU OFF THE ARENA"
Still one of my ABSOLUTE favourite moments that really exemplifies Corey is at 21:46, Spofie asking Choco if he has the prey target and Choco confirms. Nice, friendly and polite, proper teamwork. In the same breath you hear Jessie just embody the definition of stressed with his "COREEEY" followed by Corey laughing. That whole interaction is just comedy gold! Got me the first time I saw and got me again today.
I started as a warrior, the feels are real. Tanking's fun, and the worst thing that happens is you have to run back and keep beating things in the face.
Corey's shennanigans in general helped me get over my own long-standing fear of tanking, despite wanting to tank for over 15 years, but being basically told I wasn't allowed to by the WoW community. Que finding NEST by complete accident, starting FFXIV because I saw Kefka and eventually-thanks to the community being nice and understanding- getting into tanking. And not only tanking, healing too!
Corey is the reason I picked up WAR. I started playing 2mo before Stormblood who was released, and was pretty dead set on just being a healer main. Eventually I came across Drak's channel and really found myself laughing a whole lot at the general antics of the group, but more so at what Corey did inside. Watching him play warrior and do all the silly things that he did really made the job look appealing to me, so after dragging a friend of mine into play the game and be healer for me I picked up the ax and became a warrior. It has since become my favorite tank in the game. ^_^
Maybe I'm misinterpreting things, but I feel like Corey gets misunderstood a lot. Like he actually is really REALLY intelligent. He just also is extremely Chaotic Neutral so he uses his intellect and knowledge of social interactions to sow Chaos. Also great videos Drak. Love the work.
I first started watching NEST with the Best of Corey Stormblood video and now it's that time again for Shadowbringers. Can't wait for all the eventual Endwalker content
Just gonna say, while I loved the start of the Stormblood best of vids the starts for the Shadowbringer ones are so amusing. Keep up the great work Drak!
I'm going through and watching basically all of your videos because it's what gets me stoked to get back into raiding, and oh my GOD the ultra instinct dodge about 12 minutes in was incredible lmao
I come back to these best of videos every once in a great while, and tbh? You guys helped me to get over the idea of not being good enough to do EX and Savage content. I would attribute most of the courage I've gotten to do it all, to everyone that has been a part of NEST the last couple years or so.
It just keeps getting better and better watching these shenanigans together like this. Also Corey makes the raid look that much more entertaining, I swear.
I'm on my finals week and I had the Best of Drak SHB video playing at the background while working. Already ready for tomorrow and this Corey video! Thank you for you and your team's amazing efforts on every video ❤
i love watching highlights like this, where the group is hellbent to make progress, while also finding out ways to kill eachother, both ingame and mentally. like its all about sending a message dead or alive that message will get delivered.
I like the clip about 2 minutes in with Drak letting Corey die while he was spamming Cure I and II, when he had Asylum, Divine Benison, and Tetragrammaton off cooldown. What a Freecure fisher.
I'm just rewatching this video and got up to the part where Corey felt for those last cutscenes when he was given the axe and I felt those same emotions he did, gaaaahhh my heart >.
Dayum, drak, i've not even finished watching best of Drak and you drop this?? Gonna save it for later, but the opening already make me laugh. The compilations are huge this time, and they seem better than ever, good job drak!
Choosing to get caught up on NEST's antics after I got the puppy...I'm not sure if she's beginning to think that's her name. Because inevitably when she's doing something she's not supposed to, someone's yelling Corey. Time will tell.
I'm 4 minutes in and I can't wait for Drak to eventually go the route all healers eventually follow, ESPECIALLY White Mages, and learn that THEIR lives are in YOUR hands and when someone is giving you shit sometimes you *just let them die*. Blood for the Blood Lily.
I always wondered does Corey character have a story- I know that maybe kinda weird to ask. But I always see are of his two characters and wonder did he have some type of lore for his WOL.
"[Nest Raider Name], you just need to trust me." Look, I've played MMOs long enough to know If I take those words for RNG worth, My ass gets destroyed.
Haven't watched this channel in quite awhile, but I feel Jesse's healer pain with gnb's wasting our heals. Also with the turkey sound effect, what happened to Miss turkey noises? I forgot her name

awsome drak i always love new series up what you made
These compilations became my send off for the current expansion
Hay Drak. Remember the NEST meme where Corey talks about how pours the milk first before he eats his cereal?
I tried it. It works. I regret nothing.
It's fun watching Corey's relationship with Sophie go from "Corey-senpai is alright, I'll just adjust" to "I SWEAR TO EVERY GOD YOU CAN NAME, COREY, IF YOU KILL SOMEONE AGAIN I'LL JUST DRAG YOU OFF THE ARENA"
It's just a natural progression of a healer
If a healer has yet to succumb to the power of spite just put them in a Raid Static with Corey for a while and they'll soon embrace the culture.
@@DWIMoonturtle And then it will be up to the RDMs & SMNs to become the actual healers! :P
Corey: "Its ok, they're not people."
Emet Selch: "No no, he's got a point."
Emet Selch: "Finally, one of you gets it."
"A cringe is just a smile that hasn't figured out what it is yet" I had forgotten about this nugget of wisdom.
Ah Corey. Never change.
Still one of my ABSOLUTE favourite moments that really exemplifies Corey is at 21:46, Spofie asking Choco if he has the prey target and Choco confirms. Nice, friendly and polite, proper teamwork.

the "hey jesse, you wanna see a dead body?" clip fucking destroyed me
4:45 No lie that part where Cory was talking about his connection to the axe at the end of SHB made me want to go WAR and get over my fear of tanking.
I started as a warrior, the feels are real. Tanking's fun, and the worst thing that happens is you have to run back and keep beating things in the face.
Bro watching NEST and Corey is actually what caused me to pick up tanking and now I main WAR lol
I made myself do this on my 2nd character and it was absolutely perfect, so glad I did it :)

Also great videos Drak. Love the work.
Corey is ridiculously intelligent, actually very kindhearted outside of this curated content, and an amazing person.
Corey also is a chaos entity.
Corey is the kind of Chaotic Neutral where you can reliably predict them to be unpredictable. He's always up to SOMETHING.
6:40 "switch to smn"... Summoner gets a dash in Endwalker.. He can never escape
I’ve got a feeling that “We’re gonna see someone getting punched” is going to get so much mileage in this series
Our name days have come all at once!
But wait, my nameday isn’t till later this week.
I just got into the game a month ago, and just hit Stormblood. I FINALLY GET IT.
I love that this Best of Corey is also basically a Best of Jesse too
God that opening was amazing xD
I first started watching NEST with the Best of Corey Stormblood video and now it's that time again for Shadowbringers. Can't wait for all the eventual Endwalker content
"Oh no the floor didn't spawn"
I lost it. I had to pause and laugh at that part.
Just gonna say, while I loved the start of the Stormblood best of vids the starts for the Shadowbringer ones are so amusing. Keep up the great work Drak!
Time stop Corey is still the best gag of this expansion. Top notch 👌
*sees intro, immdeately reminded of E3 vid* OH BOY THIS IS GONNA BE A GOOD ONE!
I wasent here during E3 what happend?
That intro sums up E3S completely and I love it.
good lord, are all best ofs gonna be about 2 hrs? thats amazing, thanks for the work drak o.o
I'm going through and watching basically all of your videos because it's what gets me stoked to get back into raiding, and oh my GOD the ultra instinct dodge about 12 minutes in was incredible lmao

Left-Right-Confusion combined with Murphy's Law - perfection XD
It just keeps getting better and better watching these shenanigans together like this. Also Corey makes the raid look that much more entertaining, I swear.
for a sec, I was wondering what the intro is about.... then I remembered Cruise Chaser
Edit: also E3S which I had completely forgotten
Not gonna lie, I was expecting Cerealgate. Milk First Unite.
@@tommenno this was already the intro for Stormblood :'D
Idk milk before cereal seems normal enough too me
“You can’t walk two feet to the left?!?”
"You are literally a walking talking Murphy's law." Hay! That's my schtick. Get your own.
I'm on my finals week and I had the Best of Drak SHB video playing at the background while working. Already ready for tomorrow and this Corey video! Thank you for you and your team's amazing efforts on every video ❤
It's 2 hours of Corey goodness. Drak had blessed us once again
i love watching highlights like this, where the group is hellbent to make progress, while also finding out ways to kill eachother, both ingame and mentally. like its all about sending a message dead or alive that message will get delivered.
My favorite clip is at 1:44:08 when you start juggling aggro with the boss and it goes shing shing shing shing shing shing shing shing shing
I love that I came back to the best of series just to be greeted to an insurance ad on freaking Corey's video.
*Super echoes in the distance*
Ahahahaha im so happy i get the reference in the opening, these are gold drak!!!
i love that i had the privilege to see a lot of these moments live XD
The build up to Corey yelling around 1:48:20 made me laugh
2 hours of Corey terrorizing the party. I love it.
Man this and the vid on you Drak are an absolute barrel of laughs. Looking forward to our favorite floor mopping moogle's video.
It took me way longer than it should have for me to realize that the intro to this is Corey's inability to move 3 feet to the left
I like the clip about 2 minutes in with Drak letting Corey die while he was spamming Cure I and II, when he had Asylum, Divine Benison, and Tetragrammaton off cooldown. What a Freecure fisher.
Thank you for another fantastic video. I know how i'm spending the next two hours.
How the members of Nest haven't issued a hit on Corey is beyond me
They know by killing Corey they indirectly kill Drak in the process.
I'm just rewatching this video and got up to the part where Corey felt for those last cutscenes when he was given the axe and I felt those same emotions he did, gaaaahhh my heart >.
Honestly, Corey is me whenever I try raid content. My lack of directions is uncanny.
5:01 i adore this artwork amazing job shadotdot
Drak's 'Dude Where's my Car' reference always gets me
Corey and Jesse are a dream tank/healer combo
34:30
after endwalker i can't stop hearing the "TUMBLING DOWN TO the NEVEEEEEEEER"
Corey's Internet: I like what this Hans guy is doing, let's do that
Can't believe i had to watch the video all the way through before the joke in the intro sunk in lol
Dayum, drak, i've not even finished watching best of Drak and you drop this??
Gonna save it for later, but the opening already make me laugh. The compilations are huge this time, and they seem better than ever, good job drak!
I'll wait a day or two longer to release the next couple I already have uploaded then :)
@@DrakGamestein Not complaining, my man, just surprised (and happy) we're getting all that content!
I aspire to this man's level of party kill and friendly fire.
It's the Best of Corey but it's like a preview of the Best of Jesse too!
didn't get the intro the first time I watched this. Now I just hear Jesse going "YOU'RE THE ONE WHO DIED TO NOT GOING LEFT FOR 3. HOURS."
I was waiting for this so bad, thank you Drak! Look forward to the ones of the rest of the group as well ❤️❤️
Yes dude. You guys have had some hilarious moments but the Jesse swearing during Innocence bit makes me laugh EVERY time.
You know what, this compilation makes me want more Lemur more than anything xD
I love the sound effect for spofies dead body sliding across the ice xD
Who kills themselves during a raid fight at 3%?
Corey: *OH BOY 3%*
You know the swearing is bad when even Tate is surprised he can't shut up.
I cannot explain why "the letter ow" has stuck with me, but it just makes sense. Even from the first video it aired in.
Lemur's voice when she admonished Rhaya for killing her😂😂😂😂😂😂 it hit a bassy brassy tone that hit all the happy parts of my brain
corey always has the longest videos. its amazing
God, I live for this compilations of epic moments. ty kind sir and my i have another?
how did you know i was just watching the best of corey a few days ago again D:
Almost 2 Hours of Corey goodness? Hoo Boy
Ohhhhhh my belly hurts
I am sharing this with every ff14 friend I have so they too can laugh for two freakin' HOURS
corey's that teammate that'll drive me to the edge of insanity
Nobody, nobody at all
Corey: SSSSSSUPEEEEEEERRRRR
The ultimate proof that NEST shares a single brain cell is to be found at 24:40: Provoke + Shirk + Rescue = CLEAVE
2 hours of Corey goodness? But this isn't my nameday!
Had a moment where I expected Keef to appear in the opening
A walking, talking Murphy's Law. Sounds about right.
I choked at the opening great job
watching this intro again, I really wish we got Corey to do the intro part. Would be hard, but, god, I would've loved to see it.
As someone who cannot tell the difference between right and left, I identify with that intro xD
Dude I'd love to raid with NEST lol I dont think I'd be able to breathe from laughing the whole time hahaha
Sam's intro will very much just be a waffle maker
Choosing to get caught up on NEST's antics after I got the puppy...I'm not sure if she's beginning to think that's her name. Because inevitably when she's doing something she's not supposed to, someone's yelling Corey. Time will tell.
I'm 4 minutes in and I can't wait for Drak to eventually go the route all healers eventually follow, ESPECIALLY White Mages, and learn that THEIR lives are in YOUR hands and when someone is giving you shit sometimes you *just let them die*.
Blood for the Blood Lily.
WHAT ALREADY???? NO! I STILL HAVEN'T FINISHED BEST OF DRAK! YOU CAN'T DO THIS!
I'll hang onto these other ones I have uploaded already for another few days to let you catch up :)
What the hell happened at 35:00?!
That noise
I can't stop laughing
NGL, thought this was going to open with a gooch press
No no no, that's Choco, though I don't think that's allowed on RUclips.
The intro
Pure gold !!!
Almost Two hours of madness 😳!!
took me till today to get the Opening skit XD
When a boss just spams it’s cast way too much. 48:32
Finally..... The time has come
I always wondered does Corey character have a story- I know that maybe kinda weird to ask. But I always see are of his two characters and wonder did he have some type of lore for his WOL.
Why did I feel called out here lol
Corey's greatest enemy; Leviathan.
SUPER!
That piece of artwork at 5:01... it really hits cause I was the same.
"[Nest Raider Name], you just need to trust me." Look, I've played MMOs long enough to know If I take those words for RNG worth, My ass gets destroyed.
Forward and back...And forward and back...=3
Oooh I'm digging Fortune Cookie Corey a lot.
YESSS!! BEST OF COREY!!
Haven't watched this channel in quite awhile, but I feel Jesse's healer pain with gnb's wasting our heals. Also with the turkey sound effect, what happened to Miss turkey noises? I forgot her name
"JUST GO TO THE LEFT"
It's Corey time
That intro!!! 😂😂😂
