New ToAU walkthrough...some spoilers, names onlyFollow

This is what I have so far, if you have new info...please add.

I will edit this post accordingly.

Allied Rumblings ToAU 39

Go to Teahouse for a CS.

Key Item: Allied Council Summons

Then go to Jeuno, and walk into the Archduke's Palace for another CS.

Title Gained: Endymion Paratrooper.

Unravelling Reason, ToAU 40

Go to the Guard Post Room on the left inside the Palace. Talk to Pherimociel inside for another CS at (G-6). Zone afterwards.

Next game day, talk to Pherimociel again.

Select "Ready"

Get wraped to woodlands after a cs, and get another CS automatically.

Light of Judgement, ToAU 41

I-7 Rodin Comidin, go to him in Whitegate upper level.

Key item: Nazul Isle Route

Grab poison pots before you go any further.

Path of Darkness, ToAU 42

Warp out to Nyzul Assault Point, and click on a blank spot at the pole sticking out of the ground.

Click yes when it asks you if you want to proceed. When you do, you will be blocked from Naja's though until mission is complete. You will get a CS at this point.

Go to Runic Seal in the back of the staging area, and be ready for a BC.

Path of Darkness is the BC's title. Buffs wipe when inside. 30 min time limit.

Naja is helping you inside. If she dies, you lose. You will have to go back to Taru to get new key item.

Four gears pop at engagement of Amnaf.

What we did, was have the PLD pull Amnaf, then when the gears popped, slept them all. BLM sleepga doesn't work, but BRD's Horde and single Lullaby does.

Kill the gears first, then worked on boss. He is a BLU and uses BLU moves, but is easy to damage.

At 50%, he will warp away to another room. He will then turn white, but won't regen. You can walk up to the next room and rest up before you engage him again. If you have any dots on him, it will take him down to 27%, but nothing really below that.

When you engage him again, he will pop more gears again. Four, just like last time.

Repeat like before.

At 10%, he will warp away, and become a Soulflayer. Chase him down, and rest like before.

When ready, pop poison and engage. He is like a normal Flayer, with Sleep, curse and bio.

Title earned: Naja's Comrade-In-Arms

Fangs of the Lion, ToAU 43

Go back to Sahleems in Whitegate for another cutscene.

Get Key item: Mythril Mirror.

Nashmeira's Plea, ToAU 44

Go back to the Assault Nyzul Isle point again, and click on the blank spot for another cutscene.

Title gained: Nashmeira's Loyalist.

There is a fight at Runic gate again, and lasts fourty-five minutes. If you lose, you have to go back to Whitegate and talk to Naja again to be reflagged.

Nashmiera's plea is the fight's title. You will first fight a BLU named Raubahn. He isn't that much a problem himself, other than his Eyes on Me attack virtually one-shots our tank. While you are fighting the BLU, Alexander will be attacking as well, doing Diaga III and Banish IV for decent damage.

Once you kill Raubahn once, he will Reraise up and you will have to fight him again. Once you kill him that time, he will reraise again, but be melee resistant.

Once he is finally dead for the third time, there is just Alexander left. Not too difficult, kept Light Carol up and melee'd it down.

At 50%, there is a CS.

Once the CS is over, you will be facing the true Alexander at 100%.

He terrors, and does a high DMG AoE move called Void of Repentance. This move is stunnable, however. He continues to do Diaga III and Banish IV. After 50%, he will do Gospel of the Lost which will recover about 1k of his HP.

At 50%, he does Divine Judgement, which one-shotted our tank.

If you wipe at any point in this fight, you can reraise anywhere on the field. Alexander does not aggro, but will react to hostile moves made against him. Futhermore, he won't regen.

Our setup: BLM/RDM, MNK/NIN, MNK/WAR, PLD/WAR, WHM/BLM, BRD/WHM. All were 75.

The key to this fight is to have the mages off on one side, the melee on either side, and the tank tanking away from the mob. This means that the AoEs will only hit the tank. Our BLM/RDM was able to do all the stunning with little problem. The BRD kept up Light Carol for the full fight.

Title earned: Preventer of Ragnarok

Ragnarok, ToAU 45

Go back to Naja for another CS.

Doesn't matter which options you choose in CS.

Imperial Coronation, ToAU 46

Dress up like you did for the previous mission when you had to go to the palace.

Be sure to not wear any weapons or grips.

Once that is done, click on the Imperial Whitegate entrance (L-9) for another CS.

Select your ring! If you don't select one, you can click on the Imperial Whitegate entrance again to get it.

tried Nashmeira's Plea twice, now three ppl decided to leave for foolish reasons and trying to shout for more to have another go

I did this twice, first time half cocked and just for fun then was going to log. Before I logged I found another pt, and got to second form. We did about 20% dmg and wipe. I started to tractor people out of Arrgo range and lost two people in limbo.

Just for the hell of it and after the two people Dced after being in limbo for 5 mins. I ran around looking for a "Switch" to turn him off. But nothing. (It was worth a shot) I think that he is way over powered.

After defeating Alexander, you must return to Salaheem's Sentinels, which will trigger a cutscene upon entering.

After that, you have to go to the imperial whitegate to enter the palace. You must have the same "proper attire" and lack of weapons as before. You also must keep two inventory slots free, as you will be given the choice of Balrahn's ring, Ulthalam's ring, or Jalzahn's ring and given an imperial standard (furniture).

After that cutscene ends and you have your new toys, head to Salaheem's Sentinels again for another entering-triggered cutscene. Keep one slot open again, because you'll be getting something that was taken from you a long time ago!

And that's all.

Yeah, saw the threads after I posted...x.x;

I fixed the title, since I couldn't really do much without mentioning the names :(

But I kept plot points out at least.

Updated through the end.

Quick clarification of your phrasing - from the way you put it, I was under the impression that at 50% he'd heal himself for 1000-ish once and that'd be that. But it's more accurate to say that below 50% he gets access to that move. (And he *loved* to spam it for my group.)

1/1 on the fight, thank you for the info you gave. (We barely scraped through mind you, but it was still first try.)

ToAU 44. won the fight with nin, whm, blmx2, rdm/drk, and me on sam/thf. Nin tanked behind and up close, he said he used the sacrament move less often up close. Blms nuked, and only times i engaged were to WS after building TP with meditate so i wouldn't give too much TP for the Gospel move. If the tank stands behind alexander SATA will take full effect even if the nin has hate. kept the tank at full hp around %50 and nin survived divine judgement. Only time it got messy was at 3% when the whm was outta mp and the rdm jes got killed after converting, tank died and blms dropped, one blm RRed and nuked with tier 4 and fight was done. end of fight 2 ppl dead and everyone in red and low mp

I like to throw this out there. Blink is not peirce by eyes on me and does absorb it if procs.(I got a shadow absorb damage message from it.)
