  • FFXIV: How To Easily Defeat Exdeath And Finally Get The Very Cool Alte Roite Mount? - Preparation & Mechanisms

    Posted: Oct 24, 2024

    Like many MMORPGs, players can challenge some high-level and difficult ultimate bosses in Final Fantasy 14’s raids, which will also provide you with some rare and exclusive loot. This loot has become the main reason for players to hit these extremely difficult savage raids.

    In the previous basic game, these very valuable loot were only obtained by those high-level players. But in the current Dawntrail expansion, you can revisit those bosses you haven’t challenged before to get those loot. And in this expansion, the character’s abilities have been strengthened, which makes it easier for you to get them.

    Among these loot, players may pay the most attention to mounts, because it not only can lead you to shuttle freely throughout the map but also demonstrates your combat ability-because some mounts require you to experience arduous battles to obtain. One of them is the Alte Roite, a winged serpent, so this guide will show you how to get it easily.

    Preparation

    First of all, you need to know that Alte Roite Mount is a guaranteed drop in the level 70 savage raid called Deltascape V4.0 (Savage). To unlock this raid, you need to complete the level 70 Main Scenario Quest called Stormblood to unlock Omega raid series.

    In this raid series, you will receive a quest called The Hunt for Omega from an NPC called Wedge located in Rhalgr’s Reach (X:12.6, Y:12.4). In this quest, you need to defeat the four bosses that appear in the Deltascape raid on Normal difficulty, which will successfully complete The Anomaly quest and obtain FFXIV Gil reward.

    After completing a series of operations, you need to return to Rhalgr’s Reach again and talk to Magitek Terminal there and select Access the Savage Initiative option. After this option, you will unlock the savage difficulty version of all Deltascape boss fights.

    Start Fighting

    In this Deltascape V4.0 (Savage), the boss that drops Alte Roite is Exdeath, so you need to defeat it. This is also a digital recreation of the monster of the same name in Final Fantasy 5.

    Although Exdeath’s attack mechanism and special mechanism are much more difficult than the enemies in Main Scenario Quest or the dungeon, don’t worry, the new items introduced in Dawntrail expansion will make it easy to defeat this enemy.

    In addition, you can also open Duty Finder window and enter Duty Finder Setting interface through the gear icon in the upper left corner of the window. Here you can turn on Unrestricted Party option, which will prevent your other characters in the game from leveling up to level 70 at the same time, and have unrestricted power during the fight with Exdeath.

    If you want to fight Exdeath alone, then Tank is your best choice in the class. In addition, when your item level reaches 730, some DPS Classes can also defeat Exdeath independently. It depends on your play style and habits.

    Players with lower item levels don’t need to be discouraged. You can form a team with other players who have enabled Unrestricted Party, so that you can defeat this tough boss faster, and most importantly, there is a significant possibility that some of the boss mechanisms in the later stages will be omitted.

    Combat Mechanics

    Know yourself and your enemy, and you’ll win every battle. So before you officially challenge Exdeath, you should first understand what kind of mechanics you will encounter in the battle with it, and how you should deal with it.

    Dualcast + Blizzard III

    Exdeath will use two sets of avoidable AOEs to target each player’s position quickly and launch continuous attacks on them. At this time, what you or your team should do is to stack together as much as possible to reduce the space occupied by the blizzard, and then dodge.

    Dualcast + Thunder III

    This mechanic will focus on damaging the tank and double-strike it, which is fatal damage to those players with lower item levels, so you need to do everything you can to avoid it. For players with higher item levels, you can use defensive skills as much as possible to ensure your safety, or you can exchange with the tank’s Provoke ability to share the damage.

    Dualcast + Fire III

    Like Dualcast + Blizzard III, Exdeath will fire two AOE damage to you, but this is unavoidable. First Exdeath hits all DPS players, and then all non-DPS players. At this time, you should try to spread out as much as possible to avoid hitting each other.

    White Hole

    This mechanic will petrify all players with less than maximum health, and those with less than half health will be defeated immediately. So before it releases this skill, you need to restore your health to a safe range as much as possible to ensure that you will not be killed in one blow.

    Decisive Battle

    When Exdeath starts to get close to the last tentacle, it means that this mechanic is about to be triggered. It will cause the tentacle to sprout here and cause damage to you and your team. In this mechanic, Exdeath will follow the tentacle and disappear when it is knocked back. So this requires you to try to complete this battle behind the head in the center of the arena while avoiding damage.

    Grand Cross Alpha

    Exdeath will first perform a period of Hysteria in this stage. At this time, you need to try to stand in the center of the arena to avoid being forced to leave. Then the first Flood of Naught will cause additional damage to the player closest to it and trigger Off-balance debuff. You need to stand still here to avoid being knocked down by the speed bomb.

    The second Flood of Naught will show a blue triangle and purple prism, which will force you to stand in the arena and put you on the other half of your White Wound or Black Wound debuff, increasing the damage you take. All you can do here is to use defensive skills as much as possible to protect yourself.

    The above is the preparation and specific combat mechanics for defeating Exdeath to obtain Alte Roite Mount in Final Fantasy 14 Dawntrail expansion. I hope that after reading this guide, you can easily obtain the very cool Alte Roite Mount, and wish you a happy game!
