Trying a lot of new stuff this expac! With my growing home responsibilities I'm letting more people help with the process. Kev (who manages the highlight channel) stepped up to help edit the base vid and Scribble handled the avatars and text as usual. We're trying out a new editing software. All that to say, there are gonna be hiccups and errors here and there but I hope you'll let them slide as we iron them out. :) Also thanks again to our sponsor today.

Was a little shocked to hear Corey is not part of NEST anymore. But learning that he had to leave because of his Job and not because they fought is a huge relief. Hope he finds happiness and that he and the rest of the team maintain a great relationship in privat :) Loved their synergy, but it will be cool to see new faces ☺️
Honestly glad to see that other tank players enjoy Mountain Fire as much as I do. I genuinely feel like that is the best tank mechanic we've had in such a long time, if not ever for Final Fantasy XIV. Love this fight!
@@keaton_kiht - That's awesome! I'm sure you'll do great! Tanking this expansion is looking like it's gonna be a fun time if mechs like this are what we can expect moving forward!
@@keaton_kiht as someone who took it to finally tank main a tier and also finally get a static to raid in 4 years too, it sure is scary at first but dang it feels awesome, here is to more awesome Tank Mechs in Dawntrail!
Definitely going to be weird to not have Corey around (Hope he's enjoying his new job and able to join the fun again soon), but it seems Drak is filling Corey's role just fine xP Poor poor Keaton though.
@@Spiritwonder420 Yeah, for the tier at least. He said on Twitter that hopefully after working his new job long enough, he'll be able to get hours that agree with the NEST schedule a bit more, but for now they just don't and he had to step down for now. I'll miss him for sure, but I wish him luck with what he's doing
The fact that five out of eight party members got in on the happy feet bit, and two different times it was in synch. That's how you know it's gonna be a good static.
Corey may be out for now (Hope he's doing well! I know things have been good for him, but scheduling called for him to leave), but it's nice to see Drak continues on the spirit of Thunder Buddies. Happy Dawntrail, Drak! Looking forward to seeing new videos! Also, 10/10 tankbuster. Actually one of the best ones I've seen.
While I will miss Corey and his shenanigans, I am happy for him for his new job and opportunities and wish him all the best. But Drak will channel that Corey energy and go even further beyond what a gremlin thought possible!!! (At squeaky toy Keaton’s expense)
Hey! I think that you, Kev, and Scribble did great with this vid, and it feels like watching a usual NEST vid (which I know seems like a weird thing to say, but I mean this as a compliment to dissuade any worries about newer creative processes and different editing software). Can’t wait to see y’all’s adventures in DawnTrail!
I’ve always loved these videos, and they inspired me to try high end content on expansion for the first time during Dawntrail! It’s so much funnier knowing the mechanics now, thank you for continuously making these!
I love that muscle memory makes people shuffle back and forth during lightning phase ice mechanic Because every other time that comes up its motion, but in that phase (and the spread for ice phase) you just need to be on a floating area, no motion required
The new outro is cute! And I'm glad to see I'm not the only one feeling the increase in damage. Endwalker shield healing was so cruisey because even most savage fights I did there weren't a lot of instances that required mit and now I'm suddenly very attacked to seraphism letting me spam shield casts while running.
It feels so nice watching these videos. Especially since I’m able to do the stuff they’re doing on-content. It’s like a nice little checkpoint for me and a reminder of the person who got me into this game who I miss everyday and the people I met or reconnected with because of this game. From barely doing Garuda Ex as a lvl 50 DRK to clearing blind week 1 savage. Hopefully one day I can get lucky and run into him maybe in PF to raid with him or for something memorable That being said, I can’t wait to see how they handle a certain mechanic in M2S, it seems like no one knows how to handle it lol
These videos makes me both happy and sad at the same time. I love living vicariously through them, but it makes me sad knowing I'll never belong to a group that has fun like this.
I love how Keaton somehow seemed to turn "noises of fear and/or pain" into its own language, and is slowly teaching it to everyone else. On an unrelated note, i feel the strange desire to apologize to Drak.
This ex is actually incredibly cool. Its not too hard, has some really creative mechanics (mountain fire anyone!?) And the weapons even look good. Lets hope they keep this going!
Looking forward to more nest shenanigan's for the new tier! found yall towards the tail end of endwalker and have really enjoyed your content since! Also really like the new outro!
@@commanderkitsune8524 Corey mentioned in his discord and on his twitter that he'd be taking the tier off because of work and other personal irl things he needs to take care of! He's doing fantastic from my understand. He'll be back though, don't worry about that
So existed for Dawntrail Nest stuff since this is going to be the first time I actually join a Tier from the start with the intent to fully finish it. So I can just laugh along while completely understanding what the fights actually require of someone
As a healer for this fight I find this very entertaining considering my own static has several members like nest so it can be very chaotic healing at times lol
Jesse complaining about Lightspeed during this fight is the exact reason I didn't pick AST until Savage hit. I love AST, but man did it need the buffs it got. These fights are fun but have way too much movement
So Drak. When you do your Dawntrail playthrough vid... assuming you do... there's one boss that gives you the "Trouble" status and it curses you to "be a nusance to your party." If you don't call this the Curse of Corey I will be very disappointed in you.
Haha that should be on the way soon. Kev handles those edits so once he’s done with MSQ himself we’ll get those out. I actually still have to work on the first Expert dungeons for a vid. But I know what you’re talking about and I’m pretty sure I had a comment for it lol
Yeah.. I'm healing this EX and savage tier, too, Jesse. Probably the whole xpac, honestly. And also on AST. I feel your pain. And everyone elses'. Shit HURTS. And we DON'T have a RDM or SMN..
FFXIV RNG picks mechanics: I have 4 options to give these people so it can be a challenging/interesting fight. *sees NEST load in* I will know present only one pattern for the rest of night till the end to gaslight the person doing callouts. :) I firmly believe that 14's RNG is sentient and specifically likes to fuck with nest.
Same....but 80 kills each on the EXs seen 8 wings between them, and my highest roll across them all was a 25. Im just RNG's punching bag at this point. Sadly I don't have any friends to make my own mount farm squad

Hope home life is going well Drak and everyone involved
“There must always be a Gaslightingway,” Corey said to Drak as he disappeared into the ether.
Gives strong "the dutchman must have a captain" vibes. Part of the ship, part of the crew
What do you mean? There's always been a Gaslightingway. Didn't you do that one side quest?
He's actually in the raid you just can only see up to 8 people at a time ( PS4 limitations, hopefully they deal with it soon )
@@Lancefh_ENV I see😂
@@AzimoKBM You need the spiritual sense DLC to see him.
"Don't worry, brotha, I shall carry on in your stead." - Drak, taking up Corey's mantle of Cleavingway
Everyone: "Twisters!"
Hans: "I sense a disturbance in the force... it's as if someone called out a cursed mechanic, then suddenly was silenced..."
>keaton on tank
>jesse back on heals
>drak on domestic terrorizing
this will be a good expansion
Was a little shocked to hear Corey is not part of NEST anymore.
But learning that he had to leave because of his Job and not because they fought is a huge relief.
Hope he finds happiness and that he and the rest of the team maintain a great relationship in privat :)
Loved their synergy, but it will be cool to see new faces ☺️
“If it weren’t for the fact that I need you to live, I swear to God…”
Need that on a coffee mug or something lmao
it's so true too LOL
Honestly glad to see that other tank players enjoy Mountain Fire as much as I do. I genuinely feel like that is the best tank mechanic we've had in such a long time, if not ever for Final Fantasy XIV. Love this fight!
I absolutely looooved the tankbuster. It's genuinely the reason I decided to tank this tier. So I'm thrilled to bits.

I’m just happy they gave us the option to kill tanks this time around.
@@DrakGamestein Of course you'd be happy about that a;lsdkjf;laksdjfl;
@@keaton_kiht such is the life of being the squeaky toy. You have become Drak’s stress ball
@keaton_kiht this calls for a team up, Jesse is waiting
Definitely going to be weird to not have Corey around (Hope he's enjoying his new job and able to join the fun again soon), but it seems Drak is filling Corey's role just fine xP
Poor poor Keaton though.
Keaton's noises are going to be my fav thing about NEST in Dawntrail.
@@naienko Keaton noises have been the best thing in EW too.
@@MyVanir and now we're going to get SO MUCH MORE
Wait Corey is gone :(

I like to think all of NEST shares one collective brain cell and with every new member each of them has less time with it
So they're all Orange cats
@@AMNElement basically
The fact that five out of eight party members got in on the happy feet bit, and two different times it was in synch. That's how you know it's gonna be a good static.

Seeing Drak play Monk again... nature is healing
this might be the best Extreme they've done
I can’t wait for their run of Everkeep EX.
It's so good to hear y'all having fun with content, just feels great to get that vicarious joy
I’ve always loved these videos, and they inspired me to try high end content on expansion for the first time during Dawntrail! It’s so much funnier knowing the mechanics now, thank you for continuously making these!
Interesting that the dynamic is now "DPS griefs tanks" and not the other way around.
IT'S BECAUSE I'M WEAK. SEND HELP, HE WON'T LEAVE ME ALONE.
@@keaton_kiht that's quitter talk Keaton. Remember you have Shirk.
Thanks for the video Drak !
Side note : you effed up the timer at the beginning of the video, sponsor ends at 2:30 and chaptering ends it at 2:00
Tank Keaton wasn't something I was expecting but it is very welcome.
17:58 Shout out to that SLICK rescue on the char who couldn't Arm's Length due to LB. Quick and precise.
I am very proud of it. :)

Perfect! It's the NEST Neapolitan.
A trial boss that comes in NESTs three favorite flavors: friendly fire, cold spicy, and thunder buddies

mountain fire really is one of the best tankbusters they've ever come up with
5:14 Jesse looking like a pile of ashes with eyes "MAKE IT STOP... PLEASE" LMAO
listening to Keaton panic is just the highlight of my day. Great video
Just noticed the switch to “One Sassy Child” lmaooo
As a note, the move that kills for the enemy limit and enrage is Tulidisaster. "Tuli" means circumcision in Filipino.
God I love the thumbnail.

I Thought things would be different when i heard Corey left but watching this I have come to realize that nothing has changed and I love it.
In this season of NEST: EVERYONE is passing the buck with the singular brain cell.
As a guy who played FF6 as a kid, I’m so happy with how cool they made the Valigarmanda battle.
11:42 LMAO i literally said the exact same thing to my static when we were progging lightning phase, glad to know thats a shared sage experience
I'm so happy to see the tradition of Thunder Buddies has continued into Dawntrail! 🌩☺

I have stolen the “Certified Panhaima Moment” quote a couple times as I am a Sage main. Makes me giggle
Good thing Hans isn't here, Twisters would've knocked him out for the entire tier.
That thumbnail is gold. XD
WElcome back Drak! Glad to see your content again! Hope you and the Fam are well. These comments and jokes got me cacklin!

Drak being the one trolling is so unusual, intrigueing.
Keaton saying stop from getting taking dmg remind me of jessie during HW where boss can crit
i love this fight so friggin much
I'll have you know, whenever there's a twisters mechanic i still yell "TWISTERS" in a reference to your oldest vids
The outro is so cute!
Wow I couldve waited a few more days to order my tokyotreat box 😅 Oh well, hopefully get to use your code next time!
Aaaaah i love the new outro
grats on defeating Valid Amanda!
What’s really weird is in terms of savage/extreme this will be the first on I’ve actually done the fight myself before watching this since Bismarck.
10:08 That would be great. You could grind for the Triple Triad card mount OR you could just level Astro.
Mountain Fire makes me want to learn tanking
Ah the first dawntrail NEST fight pure chaos as always
love the new outro
Keaton on PLD? Let's gooooooooooooooooo!
I can't wait for all the rescue shenanigans from Jesse. I hope this will be Shadowbringers 2.0 :D
fun fact all monks have really stretchy arms thats how they are able to hit vali without being right next to it you just cant see it
im gonna make the bet now that the wings final mount is gonna be we get several pairs of wings.
given how the final mount went last expac...i'm thinking a really pug fugly squirrel that has a jetpack for no reason.
I'm gonna be disappointed if there isn't a one-winged angel one as a nod to Sephiroth
Jesse complaining about Lightspeed during this fight is the exact reason I didn't pick AST until Savage hit.
I love AST, but man did it need the buffs it got. These fights are fun but have way too much movement
It bothers me that morale was misspelled as moral, but that's really a me problem. I love these videos as a whole and this one is exceptional!
I noticed that too. Oops! I get breath and breathe mixed up sometimes too. XD
idk why but the sound seems off in this video

Is it just me? Or does drak sound quieter then the rest of the group? Like hes set to a 3 maybe 4 while the rest is at 6?
I like Tank Keaton :3 she's more direct with her anger.
