Seeking to take the battle away from innocent civilians, the heroes flee Eulmore in an airship, setting course for the Crystarium...

{{#ev:youtube|410iZI5KlSY|400|right|The Heroes' Gauntlet Dungeon Guide}}
===[[File:Aggressive difficulty r6.png|link=]] [[Spectral Thief]]===
* '''Spectral Dream''': Tankbuster.
* '''Chicken Knife''': Line AOEs from each corner targeting each party member. Trust NPCs will stack in the center.
* '''Dash''': Will teleport to marked location just before unleashing a circle AOE. Inflicts vuln stacks.
* '''Shadowdash''': Will teleport self and shadow to two marked locations and both unleash either a circle AOE or a line AOE. AOEs are marked, just remember that he's going to move first. Inflicts vuln stacks.
* '''Spectral Whirlwind''': Raidwide damage.
* '''Spectral Gust''': Marked AOE on all party members. Don't stack.

===[[File:Aggressive difficulty r6.png|link=]] [[Spectral Necromancer]]===
* '''Twisted Touch''': Tankbuster.
* '''Chaos Storm''': Raidwide.
* '''Absolute Dark II''': Giant cone AOE. Inflicts cleanseable Doom. Dodge.
* '''Necromancy''': Summons four zombies, one tethered to each party member. Summons walking zombies first, crawling zombies second, then both in succession.
** Walking, light tether: These zombies auto you for a few seconds, then drop dead in preparation for Necroburst.
** Crawling, smoky tether: These zombies will inflict Rigor Mortis when they catch you -- they slowly approach at first, but will instantly close the gap after an AOE marker if they haven't caught you by then.
* '''Necroburst''': Zombies explode, inflicting heavy damage and (if they were summoned walking) vuln stacks.
* '''Pain Mire''': Five giant circle AOEs that inflict vuln stacks and leave behind bleed puddles.
* '''Dark Deluge''': Drops a circle AOE on each player that inflicts vuln stacks. Dodge.

===[[File:Aggressive difficulty r6.png|link=]] Distant Ideal: [[Spectral Berserker]]===
* '''Beastly Fury''': Raidwide damage. First use will fill the arena's edges and corners with bleed puddles.
* '''Wild Anguish''': Stack attack inflicting Magic Vulnerability Up for a few seconds. 
* '''Raging Slice''': Line AOE in front inflicting vuln stacks. Always casts several in a row -- two the first time, then three for the rest of the fight.
* '''Wild Rage''': Instakill circle + knockback, leaving behind a crater.
* '''A Bit Berserk''': Standing in the crater will inflict stacks every second or so. Becomes '''Truly Berserk''' at 8 stacks, forcing you to auto the boss and take massive self-damage with each hit.
* '''Falling Rock''': Drops a rock on each party member, then uses '''Wild Anguish''' on all of you in quick succession. Stack with ''the rocks'' to survive, not each other.
* '''Wild Rampage''': Massive damage (almost guaranteed OHKO) and vuln stacks. Stand in the crater to avoid.
