The Aetherochemical Research Facility.png
Your pursuit of the archbishop has brought you to the Aetherochemical Research Facility, at the heart of the floating isle of Azys Lla. However, he and his knights are not the only threat for which you must be prepared; shortly before your arrival, the VIth Imperial Legion entered the facility in search of the secret to mastering primals, and their presence will serve to complicate matters. With multiple factions and their ambitions set on a collision course, your mission promises to be fraught with danger and uncertainty both.

Duty Commenced
This place just keeps getting weirder...
Aye, it's downright uncanny here.
Just about everything is lit up in here.
Sentinels!?
Such incredible technology...
Stay alert!
Begone!
Enough!
Out of my way!
I will crush you underfoot!
No sooner do I clear away the rabble...
If it isn't an imperial legatus!
Hmph, not again!
Savages...
Let's get this over with, shall we?
In the name of the emperor!
There's nowhere to run!
Enough!
Turrets, deploy!
Your reputation is well deserved.
Very well, let us try something different.
Can you withstand this?
Very well...
The day is yours...but we will meet again.
At least he knows when to quit.
Is that all?
It seems he wasn't here for us.
What do you suppose are in those tanks?
Monstrosities—definitely monstrosities.
Intruders detected. Releasing bioweapons.
Releasing additional bioweapons.
All personnel, please proceed calmly to the nearest exit.
Here we go again.
Watch each other's backs!
Ugh, not more abominations...
Intruders detected. Releasing bioweapons.
Releasing additional bioweapons.
All personnel, please proceed calmly to the nearest exit.
Ah...the pain...
Raaarrrgh...
Help...me...
Some manner of testing ground...
What a strange-looking...I'm going to go with "thing."

You board the autolift.

Looks like we're heading down.
Wonder where this will take us.
Activate the terminal?
Yes No
I swear, every time you ride a lift...
I know, right!?

You move to Triad Control.

What could that illuminated place be?
The beating heart of aetherochemistry, perhaps...
Activate the terminal?
Yes No
Looks like this is as deep as it goes.
The archbishop must be close.
Player7 Icon.png Voiced cutscene start.
The champion of Hydaelyn.
Tell me: why do you despise the primals so?
They are the embodiment of mortal will—of mortal desire.
Plainly, you desire a foe to despise. And 'tis well that you do, for it is from the vortex of ceaseless conflict that Lord Zodiark shall be reborn.
Through the Joining, the world shall become whole again.
Then all shall be as once it was—as it should ever have remained.
For the glory of Lord Zodiark.
Your meddling ends here and now, Warrior of Light!
Player7 Icon.png Voiced cutscene end.
It's over, Ascians!
We'll teach you to underestimate us!
We won't let you do as you please!
Player1 Icon.png The following voiced lines were removed from the game or altered with Patch 6.3.
Darkness shall consume light.
Mortal scum!
Your light shall burn no more.
Damn this frail flesh...
Know your place!
You have meddled enough.
Your quest ends here!
Chaos shall reign forevermore!
You'll not defeat me again!
Come! We settle this once and for all!
Our might knows no bounds!
Fires of creation—arise!
My magicks flow as one!
Defeat is unacceptable, Igeyorhm!
Partake of my life, Lahabrea!
Darkness shall consume light.
Mortal scum! I will entomb you in ice!
Know your place!
Let us see you withstand two magicks at once!
Chaos shall reign forevermore!
Your Light shall burn no more!
Player7 Icon.png Voiced cutscene start.
Such strength! It defies all reason...
No! I will not be bested by the likes of them!
Lahabrea! It is time!
Very well. Let us show these mortals the true power of the Echo...
The power to break down the barriers of existence!
I am become you...
...And we are become one.
Come, mortals! Render up your souls, that Lord Zodiark might be reborn!
Player7 Icon.png Voiced cutscene end.
Ahh, the power of Darkness surges... Tranquil as ice, vicious as fire!
Feel the might of our magicks combined!
Not even the laws of creation can withstand the tides of chaos!
Your Light shall burn no more!
Stubborn mortals... Very well, we will show you our true strength!
Know eternal despair! Fire and ice consume you!
Nothing shall remain!
Even without the blessing of Light... How is this possible!?
Player7 Icon.png Voiced cutscene start.
Aaargh!!!
What walls are these? Arrrgh! Damn you, Hydaelyn!

Duty Complete

Regula van Hydrus
Divider3.png
Attack Name Description
Bastardbluss Frontal cleave attack dealing moderate damage.
Judgement Small circle AoE centered on Hydrus dealing moderate damage.
Magitek Turret I Random target and tether to target. Players can intercept tether and take the damage instead. Turrets will self-destruct doing high damage if not destroyed.
Magitek Slug Straight line, targeted room length AoE.
Magitek Spread Large conal AoE dealing moderate damage, with a safe zone behind Hydrus.
Magitek Turret II Circle AoE called Aetherochemical Grenado. Turrets will self-destruct doing high damage if not destroyed.

Advice and Tips

  • Make sure to kill turrets as they can hurt.
  • The boss jumps around a lot, so be prepared to run if you're melee.
Harmachis
Divider3.png
Attack Name Description
Weighing of the Heart Harmachis takes on one of the following forms:
Sphinx form: AoEs and poison.
Serpent form: High damage tank buster (6000-8000+ damage)
Naga form: Petrifaction - avoided by looking away from boss.
Anti-Machina form: Ballistic Missile - Party member bound and targeted by high-damage missile. Exactly one other player should stack on top of the targeted player to negate the damage. If 3 or more players are hit by the AoE the damage will not be mitigated.
Cthonic Hush Frontal AoE breath attack dealing moderate damage and poison.
Riddle of the Sphinx Ground target AoE.
Ka Wide conal AoE.

Advice and Tips

  • Keep an eye on which form the boss takes so you can avoid the upcoming mechanics.
Lahabrea & Igeyorhm
Divider3.png
Attack Name Description
Dark Orb Attack dealing moderate damage.
Sea of Pitch Ground AoE DoT.
Shadowflare Room wide AoE dealing moderate damage.
Blizzard Sphere (Igeyorhm) Spheres with AoE which freezes the player.
Permafrost (Igeyorhm) Freezes the floor and deals damage.
Dark Fire II (Lahabrea) Spheres with AoE which deal high damage.

Advice and Tips

  • The fight starts with Igeyorhm being the only Ascian targetable. Once you get her to 50%, she will become untargetable and you will fight Lahabrea. Once he gets to 50%, you will start the next "phase".
Ascian Prime
Divider3.png
Attack Name Description
Height of Chaos Tank buster. Frontal cleave dealing major damage.
Ancient Eruption AoE circles placed under each player.
Shadowflare Room wide AoE dealing moderate damage.
Annihilation Summons Blizzardsphere and Firesphere. Prioritize defeating the Blizzardsphere first.
Blizzardsphere If not killed during Annihilation, it will turn the entire floor into ice that players can slip on if they move.
Firesphere If not killed during Annihilation, it will set off a roomwide AoE.
Universal Manipulation Room wide AoE that inflicts multiple status ailments and moderate damage. Each player should "hide" inside a void when the cast bar is about halfway done to avoid getting hit. Each void can only hold a single player.
Entropic Flame Multiple straight line AoEs.
Chaos Bleed Orbs are tethered to each player, and explode for AoE damage when they make contact with any player. Pop them out of range of other players.

Advice and Tips

  • Stack together for the donut AoEs so no one gets hit by them.
  • Make sure you know where the voids are for Universal Manipulation, especially so if it's a pug group in case someone takes the void you were planning to use.
