– Above your own party list it will tell you which party you are in (A, B, or C). For example, you cannot Shirk a Tank from another party, nor can you heal non-party members with an AoE heal like Medica, Succor, or Helios. – You can raise and single-target heal players in other parties, but some of your skills specifically only work on your own party members. Very useful for raising another group’s Healers or for healing the Main Tank if they’re in a different party. – You can target players by clicking on them in the Alliance Lists. It displays the players’ jobs and health states, as well as a red box outlining the person currently holding aggro. – You’ll see two new elements in your HUD: these are the party lists for the other two parties in the raid. Below these I’ll put any other notes on the fight. For each section, a couple of notes will tell you everything you need to know about playing the encounter as your chosen role.

My goal with this series of guides is to give you the information most relevant to how the content is played currently, and tips to help you still contribute meaningfully to the raid’s success. It’s also the first 24 player duty that most people will encounter in the game, and one of the more common ones to appear in your daily Alliance Raid Roulette.įor newer players keen to pull their weight, many guides they read or watch will have a ton of information rendered irrelevant due to experienced players safely ignoring specific fight tactics or skipping past boss phases with their high DPS. The Labyrinth of the Ancients is the first of three raids in the Crystal Tower Alliance Raid series.
