Here’s how and where to unlock the Arcadion in FFXIV: Dawntrail.
Be sure to avoid this as you dodge the boss’s attacks.
2-snap Twist
One side of Dancing Green will light up with ablocky visualizer effect.
Then, he will blast that sidetwice with damage, before finishing with athird blast to the opposite side.
Avoid in the same way as before.
Deep Cut
Conal AoE Tankbuster
Targets both Tanks with a high damageconal AoE.
Both Tanks should position themselvesaway from the rest of the party, then usedefensive cooldownsto mitigate this damage.
Also, if you are not the Tank,ensure you are not standing directly behind them.
Funky Floor
Grid AoE
The floor of the arena will be divided into acheckered grid.
Then,alternating squares will be targeted with AoEs.
To avoid this attack, stand between two adjacent squares and swap between them each time the AoE occurs.
Disco Infernal
Roomwide AoE/Special
Deals damage to the entire party and inflicts twoBurn Baby Burn debuffs.
At the same time, severalspotlightswill begin moving around the arena.
When the Burn Baby Burn debuff countdown expires, you will bestuck in place and perform a dance.
When the countdown nears completion, quicklymove to one of the spotlightsto avoid this damage.
Celebrate Good Times
Roomwide AoE
Deals damage to the entire party.
Recover with AoE healing.
As the first set moves, another set will begin moving, with agap in a different spot.
Ensemble Assemble
Special
Dancing Green will summon eight backup dancers along the north wall of the arena.
TheGrooviness gaugewill also appear.
This will be repeated seven more times.
Successfully dodging an AoE willbuild the Grooviness gauge, while failing to dodge an AoE will deplete it.
The higher the gauge, the less damage you’ll take.
Frogtourage
Two Frogtourage backup dancers will appear along one side of the arena.
Watch where the dancers move and get out of their way.
Eighth Beats
AoE Markers
All players will be targeted with anAoE Marker.
Spread out to avoid overlapping these.
After Eighth Beats, Dancing Green won’t use any new mechanics.
Instead, it will begin to combine them in different ways.
Time this carefully to avoid being hit.
One of the trickier attacks during this fight is a combination ofDisco Infernal, 4-step Twist, and Frogtourage.
