man, having adhd makes guides like mtq's so difficult to comprehend since i have issues processing words. actually seeing diagrams and being able to read them helps so much, so these guides are an absolute godsend! thanks so much for making these!
As someone with learning disabilities, your guides are a god send. The moving diagrams help me MASSIVELY towards understanding mechanics and bosses in general, thank you so much!
Just wanted to say that with three others + PF in a learning party along with this guide, I was able to get a first clear on Seat of Sacrifice before ShB finished. I still don't have it down well enough to feel comfortable setting up a PF for it on my own, but honestly? It felt incredible just to get the clear, and I felt relieved that I knew my role (WHM) well enough to do something like the full party heal at the start (Temperance, Plenary, Medica 2, Cure 3 was my way of doing it). I know that's a small part of the fight, but for someone who started in 5.2 and is only recently getting into (then-)current EX content, and with this fight being as complex at it is, it felt great to have that down. Every pull, I just got into the habit- Temp, Plen, Med2, Cure3, and no more Doom. Thank you again for all these guides- hope you're enjoying Endwalker, when you can get in the servers! ^^;
Your guides are so impressive. I'm not even a raiding yet but even the Big Pull videos helped me a ton. Your video format and your animation work is top notch. Easily the best channel for PvE content.
originally I watched some unsync guide but the guy was really quiet, and the information he gave was good but the gameplay was confusing since there was trolls in his group but this guide has been really easy to follow and the diagrams help so much, I definitely will be using more of your guides
Great stuff as always! Just a little thing about SMN x WAR phase: if your tanks are willing, they can take both the tethers because the fire debuff actually falls off before the second one. They can use light mitigation to deal with the combination of marker + tether damage. This gives their partner DPS maximum uptime, especially if they are melee. (And you also don't need to worry about those finicky server ticks trying to pass the tether).
But mah uptime! Tanks want to hit things too! A Paladin can use Req there (I don't think it lines up well though depending on phase order) or Cover a ranged dps who takes the tether if you only have 1 melee (distance can be tight though).
Just beginning to learn extreme fights and these guides are super helpful with the diagrams and text. It's way easier to re-read slides than to re-listen to a video and these are very well structured!
OH MY GOD? I never knew there was these types of guides beforeee this neat!! it is so beautifully made ! thank you so much I can't process guides where someone is explaning things on top of each other.. reading the notes help a lot!
bless you, i've been in so many party finders and finally got my clear the other day, but now that your guide came out i'm hoping people will have an easier time understanding the fight now being stuck on blm/whm towers for 3+ hours was too much >_>
@@vivivachi Lol less than this in a pratice is just not worh to learn every thing in the fight. Im doing Kefka Savage and yesterdey i feel so upset the people in pf leaving the pratice in 1 hour. For me the pratice in savages and extremes is 4 hours or more to everybody get the mechanics well.
Excellent guides as always. As an addendum Quintuple cast isnt in a "random" order there are actually only 5 different Sequences based on which spell is first, but that's a minor thing and doesnt need to specified to learn the mechanic. Keep up the good work I look forward to more ^-^
I’ve been watching a lot of your guides lately and as fellow FGC I really appreciate all the cameos you’ve put during these guides. It’s also so well edited that I initially thought that phase 2 ost was the extreme version only or something lmao but then i was like no, this from KOF02UM! Again, your guides are awesome tysm! o7
I haven't even reached the phase where I can access this yet and I already feel like I know how to run it. Amazing vids. Diagrams are the best bit. Keep em coming man you're gonna go far. Thank you!
Fairy, Goodbye Esaka and Zhe Prime? Your music choice is impeccable. Your guides are clear and concise and have become the favorite of my static. Keep it going, and hey, we'll see you at KOF XV I'm guessing?
Thanks for the guide, got me through my first clear today, amazing edit, also Kof music making this video so exciting to hit replay button just for listening it haha.
There's a strat that simplifies Quintuplecast and sacrifices some uptime for safety. As of 5.5 damage isn't a concern if you don't have a lot of deaths. Get in his hitbox, in clock spots, facing out. This resolves Stone, Holy and Gaze. Just remember the order of Fire/Ice and handle those in order.
Great production quality, as always. Slightly sad that you don't include melee uptime for add phase. As in; DPS drop flares on cardinals, (melee drop it on tanks, ranged stack with healers, and melee and tanks get towers. ranged and healer also get tethers.)
Thank you thank you. A month into the patch, as much as I prefer it and pushed for it, the strat has not caught on at all so I chose not to include it in a PF guide. The 2 in the guide are by far the most common ones and what people coming in late will encounter. There's always the standalone diagram. :)
We do make a note of it in the text guide: www.akhmorning.com/raids/wol/#uptime-cardinal-flares Joon also made a separate shorter video for it here ruclips.net/video/l4tQU75fqJQ/видео.html but as he said it hasn't really caught on, at least in Primal PF.
Great Video as always. Here's a bonus tip for when to dps LB: From my experience the boss he may or may not choose to use HG (except if he's in the middle of a cast). And here's the thing: if he uses HG, just CANCEL your LB and wait for his invulnerability to fall off. He wont use HG more than once (I could be wrong about this, so feel free to correct me). There's absolutely no reason to continue casting and then wasting your in LB.
HR tethers is great for melee uptime if your healers know what they're doing, but highly do not recommend it in pugs. I find it's about a 50/50 that your ranged die because your healers don't heal them enough. Sometimes it's because the healer isn't pushing enough buttons, sometimes its because people made mistakes in earlier parts of the fights and the healer is out of resources or cooldowns for quick healing. I find I have a much higher success rate with t/h taking stacks and tethers. It's not as much uptime but it's a lot less pressure on healers, who can derp around and still pass that check.
I have to agree; I haven't actually done the fight a whole lot (though I did get a clear), and I don't think any groups I was in really tried for H/R tethers, but just from explaining the fight as we go, it's far easier to explain how to do DPS tower strat. The DPS check on the adds is pretty easy as well, so even with the lower DPS you shouldn't have a problem beating them in time.
Something I noticed for the WHM/BLM towers, in your vid they spawn cardinals first then intercardinals second. Couldn't you just do them with clock spot color pairs and you soak whatever tower is in your color paired clock spot first? Then there's way less room for error in people keeping count of TMHR for first towers or moving to a spot that might have been further from where they were prepositioned.
Ty for the amazing guide as always. One question though, when PF mentions SMN CW / CCW what exactly does that mean? I just usually swap with my LB partner and hope I don't mess up
Thank you! For example, if you're a DPS and your position is NE for LB3/Stone -- For the SMN markers, you'd go back North (counter clockwise) to bait the marker/cone. So yeah, basically what you're doing but PF ended up wording it that way for some reason. 😂
I'm not even planning to run extreme anytime soon, i'm just here to be in awe of the presentation and editing If you don't mind me asking, what programs do you use to make these videos?
Any LB will trigger his HG if not timed well, if memory serves. I heard my dps groaning when i Healer LB-ed to try and save some people during their burst phase.
For whm+blm you can stuck with your LB3 partner (move clockwise, so for ex: sw pair will be on w meteor) and just wait first meteor, then move to next. Ez.
I know this is unrelated to the video(good job btw love the mini map that help demonstrate what to do exactly) but during ‘ultimate crossover’ I wish to know what the song was used there, can anyone tell me?
Ah did PF go back to set roles for meteor again? Buddy system was the norm when I was pugging. EDIT: nvm, you raid on Primal, Aether uses Buddy system more.
@@rithli I see. I'm mainly on aether so it's probably just a case of different strats being more common on different DCs. Good to know and thanks for the excellent guide as well as replying so quick :D
I don't think I've seen a single PF group on primal for buddy towers. Always role towers. Probably just a case of it being a lot easier to explain and plan out, IMO.

She does speak fast
I find this way more confusing than MTQs
Agreed. As great as mot of her Guides are, for quickly coordinated Movements like here, Diagrams are extremely helpful
The emet-selch snap at the start, 11/10
As someone with learning disabilities, your guides are a god send. The moving diagrams help me MASSIVELY towards understanding mechanics and bosses in general, thank you so much!

Incredible as always Joon! We're with you in that we love Emet's cameo.
Emet's the man.
Omg dat music and omg dat editing beyond amazing. Had to watch the whole guide even though i already have 100+ kills.
Thanks for watchin'. 😄
This is my favorite video I"ve seen for this raid, the combo of text + visuals is so so helpful, thanks!!
ngl this is a high quality guide. i really like the use of animated diagrams to explain how the mechanics work. i hope to see more from you!
Thank you.

Great video as always my man! I cleared this on launch week but I'm still watching it for the glorious editing
Glad you enjoyed it!
I only cleared yesterday. Some of the mechs seemed to hard for me, but this guide helped me out quite a bit.
Grats on the clear!
Perfect! Love all of the SNK music mix into it. Great job!
I definitely like the format of these guides, they have a great visual style with only the important info.
I loved your editing at first sight, but to find out that you also enjoy KOF's killer soundtracks??? Daaaaaamn

That KoF music is making me vibe hard while watching your guide, bro.
Keep on vibin'
Thank you so much! I was hoping you'll make a guide for this cause i'm STRUGGLING after adds. Your guides has helped me so much in game
No problemo.
amazing editing as always, I wish I could learn a thing or two about motion graphics from you
Thank you very much!
The way this guide was made got you an instant subscriber. Holy cow this was amazing!
I haven't even reached the phase where I can access this yet and I already feel like I know how to run it. Amazing vids. Diagrams are the best bit. Keep em coming man you're gonna go far. Thank you!
Love your visual guides! Please make some for the other extremes like Castrum Marinum Ex and The Cloud Deck Ex

*clears fight day 3 in pf*
*watches video anyway*
I cleared day 1 and now have 89 totems and the moint and srill watxhed this lol. Amazing work
insta like because of the snap in the beginning, thanks for the guide as always :) been helping me clear since ur titan guide!
Thank you.
this is the slickest editing i ever seen bro wtf you didnt have to go this hard on diagrams
Cool guide with good animations, as always!
Nice to Hear some KOF Music being used, fits very well
this is the best guide ever made ! I love the map animations.
Amazing guide, very detailed. Got me back up to speed with this fight :)
Wow the editing is really impressive, great job!
Thanks for the guide, got me through my first clear today, amazing edit, also Kof music making this video so exciting to hit replay button just for listening it haha.
srsly im not even running these fights, i just like your vids
Nothin wrong with that 😂 Thank you!

This fight looks really cool, can't wait to try it, been watching it as a study since I'm on vacation xD. But can't wait to try it!
Thal's balls, I'm gonna have to watch this a couple of times before I try to go in there, good LORD this is a lot to remember
It's a lot of individual mechanics but lot of them share same partners/positions so it's really not too bad. Good luck!
intro itself is just awesome
The intro is sooo cool! Ur getting better and better on videos.... love it!
🙏🙏🙏

Beautiful editing as always, Joonbob
Thank you.
Great soundtrack choice, friend!
Great art as always good job !
What a amazing job as always!
Much thanks.
I already cleared the fight but i love watching your vids
so many mechanics holy moly
Always the awesome one.. Love the easy to access guide

Awesome video! Keep it up my man 🔥
Will do my best.
Sick!!!
I already have the mount i just stayed for the music.
Yoo bro your guides are lit !!!🔥🔥 could you do ultima on ultimate difficult please!!!
U r underappreciated
that intro.....you rock joonbob
Thanks my dude
Omg i am featured in the video weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee *actually watches it even tho already got my mount to see how many times i fked up*
Excellent content

I always thought he only activates his hg if you LB him when he has LB bars.
I think it's better to save the lb3 for a healer rez since it does like no damage to him anyways
@@Mysteryof89 it's actually a big loss of dps if you fail to nail the dps lb3, as the whole group won't be able to damage the boss :D
Any LB will trigger his HG if not timed well, if memory serves. I heard my dps groaning when i Healer LB-ed to try and save some people during their burst phase.
this song from KOF 97-98!!!!!
You got it dude
For whm+blm you can stuck with your LB3 partner (move clockwise, so for ex: sw pair will be on w meteor) and just wait first meteor, then move to next. Ez.
I HEARD ESAKA
full music list in guide pls! I can't search.
kofxiv sandwich
Would you be willing to do the Ultimate fights in this format?
Unlikely till I actually clear one of the fights.
which guide will you be doing next?
outside of some small vids, it's pretty late but it's been requested by my supporters so probably e6s/e7s
This looks harder than a lot of savage fights tbh
Wait... how i gonna seach for the third song ... how i type that ? :v .... Nice video, helped me a lot !

Anyone notice the name of the Dark Knight?
Ah did PF go back to set roles for meteor again? Buddy system was the norm when I was pugging. EDIT: nvm, you raid on Primal, Aether uses Buddy system more.
any reason you recommend role towers over buddy towers for BLM+WHM? The latter seems to be the more popular strat for pugging.
In primal the role towers was the most common from my experience.
@@rithli I see. I'm mainly on aether so it's probably just a case of different strats being more common on different DCs. Good to know and thanks for the excellent guide as well as replying so quick :D

is this an arranged Chizuru Kagura theme version from KOF 96' ?
You got it
Question: during lb3 as tank, when is it safe to use ur gap closer?
The move snapshots as the castbar is full so you can wait on that or wait to see if you get the Fire vuln debuff.
first theme name plz ? after the snap
Is it just me or does the solo basssline in the song sound like tsuki no ookisa?
i mean it's KoF soundtrack it is always good
What's this song 4:56 ?
these mechanics are way more complicated than doing some Eden Savages... (besides e8s/e12s)
probably why only 4% have the mount.
