Walkthrough[]
Please note that when you've begun Dawn for Chains of Promathia and Awakening for Rise of the Zilart, your in-game Mission tracker will stop updating your mission progress until The Last Verse is completed.
See the Discussion Page for Testimonies. You must receive the final cutscene for CoP 8-4 in Lufaise Meadows at Blueblade Fell to begin this quest.
- Enter the Ducal Palace in Ru'Lude Gardens for a cutscene with Esha'ntarl.
- Return to the Misareaux Coast and head for Cape Riverne. Entering the Dilapidated Gate at (F-7) triggers a required cutscene. Unity 122 to Misareaux Coast puts you by the gate.
- Once you've triggered the cutscene, you may use the shortcut warps mentioned below to travel to Riverne - Site #B01.
- It will be fastest to use the Home Point #1 warp into Riverne - Site #B01 by Monarch Linn. Walk north and click on the Spatial Displacement.
- If you've completed Further Founts, you can use the waypoint to travel to C-10.
- If you're walking, you'll be traveling through the "normal" Unstable Displacement at North-East (G-8), which requires a Giant Scale to open. Kill local drakes to obtain a scale and trade to the Unstable Displacements to travel through them.
- Head to the green Unstable Displacement on the west-northwest side of the E-7 island. This acts as a battlefield entrance similar to the mini-battlefield in Ghelsba Outpost.
- Check the green Unstable Displacement once for a cutscene.
- Check it again and select the battle "Storms of Fate" when ready.
Bahamut[]
You face the Wyrmking Bahamut. Up to 18 people (one full Alliance) may enter the battlefield. This battle is uncapped. You are given 30 minutes to defeat him. HP/MP are fully restored upon entry. There is EXP loss in this fight. Trivial at item level.
- As of Aug 16, 2014, you are able to call Trust NPCs in this battlefield.
Bahamut has about 26,000 HP. He casts the following spells:
- Defensive: Protect V, Shell V, Stoneskin, Phalanx, Cure V.
- He is fully buffed at the beginning of the fight.
- Offensive: Fire V, Flare II, Firaga IV, Silencega, Dispelga, Graviga.
He uses the following special attacks:
- Absolute Terror: AoE Terror, absorbed by Utsusemi.
- Trample: AoE damage (~200-500), Knockback and Bind, absorbed by Utsusemi.
- Sweeping Flail: Large AoE (range 20) damage (~100-300) and Knockback, absorbed by Utsusemi.
- Touchdown: AoE wind damage (~300) and Knockback.
- Tempest Wing: Cone Attack wind damage (~400).
- Megaflare: Wide Cone Attack fire damage (~800).
- He uses this every 10% HP he loses.
- He insults the players before he uses it: Children of Vana'diel, what do you think to accomplish by fighting for your lives?
- Further mocks the players while charging Megaflare: You know your efforts are futile, yet still you resist...
- Taunts afterwards, too: Your lives are a blasphemy against the mothercrystal!
- Don't bother stunning this; he'll use it again when Stun wears off.
- Save your Stuns for his other spells, particularly Firaga IV and Dispelga.
- Can use at will as a regular TP ability after 10% health.
- Gigaflare: Wide Cone Attack fire damage (~1,200).
- Used instead of Megaflare at 10% HP.
- He insults the players before he uses it: Contemplate on the good your death will bring as your mortal form is consumed by my brilliance!
- It is faster than Megaflare and harder to stun.
- Stun this as there is a chance he will not use it after stun wears, and may use Megaflare instead.
- Can use at will as a regular TP ability after 10% health.
Post-Battle[]
- Defeating Bahamut grants the Whisper of the Wyrmking.
- Return to Ru'Lude Gardens and enter the palace again for a final cutscene.
- You must wait until the next Vana'diel day in order to begin Shadows of the Departed.
- If you cannot trigger the Shadows cutscene, check to see if you completed Awakening.
- (Optional) Speak with Auchefort, Adolie, Neraf-Najiruf, Colti, Petva, and Crooked Arrow in Ru'lude Gardens to hear additional dialogue.
