Final Fantasy XIV’s Dawntrail has introduced us to the raid series of the Arcadion, a glamorous fighting arena in Solution Nine that has much more going on than meets the eye. Here’s our list ranking the fights from best to worst. Final Fantasy XIV’s raids are some of the best content in the MMORPG.
Offering a challenging series of fights that test a player’s skill. Each of them has its own unique theme, music, arena, and mechanics, and it’s always a delight to see what the developers have in store for us next. The Arcadion was finally released alongside its Savage difficulties in Dawntrail , so we’ve taken the liberty of ranking them all from worst to best.
4. AAC Light-heavyweight M3 The third fight of the Arcadion puts us up against the Brute Bomber. Brute Bomber is the current reigning champion of the Light-heavyweight tier and uses illegal techniques like Doping Draught to boost himself up.
Brute Bomber has a variety of attacks, all of which are based around pure strength, and his boisterous nature perfectly echoes this. From Lariats to spins, to towers and a ticking time bomb in the Savage difficulty, Brute Bomber maintained that brutality all throughout his fight. Despite this, some of his moves did start to feel a little bit repetitive at times, especially on Normal difficulty.
And while the Savage does a bit to mix it up, there are a few mechanics that certainly feel like a repeat, rather than a twist on something we’ve already done before. Related: Bru.
