Emanation (Extreme)

Important

The North American and European data centers primarily use Party Finder to challenge (Extreme) content. Using Duty Finder to match with random players is not recommended and will be more difficult than pre-forming a party. For an easy completion (that will satisfy any quest requirements) or loot farming, it is recommended that players use Party Finder and form an Unrestricted Party (i.e., with level sync disabled). Players who wish to complete this duty with level sync enabled should also form a pre-made party, which also enables the use of Minimum Item Level and Silence Echo settings for a more authentic challenge compared to a Duty Finder party.

This article is about the level 70 challenge-mode trial. For the story-mode Main Scenario trial, see Emanation.

“

In the shadow of Kugane's renowned Mujikoza theater, you recount your clash with Sri Lakshmi to the wandering minstrel. Moved to melancholy by the tragic tale, he forgoes adapting it for the stage, choosing instead to honor the memory of the departed with a verse. So vivid are the words and sorrowful the melody, you cannot help but relive the fateful encounter in your mind's eye...

Emanation (Extreme) is a level 70 trial introduced in patch 4.0 with Stormblood.

• This phase begins with two adds

1. Tail Slap - wide frontal cleave
2. Inner Demons - gaze attack
3.   Stotram - Add heal from Lakshmi and raid-wide damage

• After the adds are down, Lakshmi becomes targetable
• Lakshmi will cast abilities in the following order:

1. Hand of Grace - Telegraphed AoE
2. The Pull of Light - Tankbuster (cast simultaneously with Hand of Grace)
3.   Stotram
4. The Pull of Light
5. The Path of Light - Large frontal cleave centered on player with second highest aggro (marked with a blue marker)
6. Alluring Arm - One + AoE, and two lily pads
7. The Pull of Light
8.   Stotram
9. The Pall of Light - Stack on the marked player to share damage
10. The Pull of Light
11. Chanchala - Massive ability buff

• After Chanchala, Lakshmi's abilities are altered and her damage is substantially increased
• The next abilities will be cast in Lakshmi's first Chanchala form in the following order:

1. Divine Denial - Raid-wide knockback, will kill anyone not using Vril
2. Hand of Beauty - Telegraphed AoE on bother healers
3. The Pull of Light - Substantially more damage, Vril to avoid death
4. The Path of Light - Substantially more damage, Vril to avoid death
5. Divine Desire - Raid-wide pull and bleed AoE in the center of the arena (Vril negates pull)

• After Divine Desire, Lakshmi returns to her regular form and resumes her regular abilities
• Her next rotation is as follows:

1. The Pull of Light
2. The Path of Light
3.   Stotram

• At around 50% HP, Lakshmi becomes untargetable and the add phase begins

Second Phase - Adds

• Once Lakshmi becomes untargetable, she'll summon four Dreamer adds: two Brahmin and two Shudra

1. Water III - Telegraphed AoE

• One add will be marked with a blue Vril bubble
• This bubble rotates to a different add every 10 seconds
• Every add with Vril that's killed will replenish players' Vril by 1
• Players will need to kill 3 adds to fully replenish Vril (Vril won't be restored until at least 3 adds are killed with the bubble on them)
• Lakshmi will cast her ultimate once the gauge reaches 0 regardless if adds remain on the field
• After her ultimate, her final phase begins

Third Phase

• After her ultimate, Lakshmi immediately begins her final phase with Chanchala:

1. Divine Doubt - Raid-wide confuse (Vril lowers confuse time)
2. The Path of Light
3. The Pull of Light

• Lakshmi drops her Chanchala form and begins glowing gold:

1. Vril Restoration (Z and Straight)
2. The Pull of Light
3. The Pall of Light
4. Alluring Arm - Two crosses and two lily pads
5. The Path of Light
6.   Stotram

• Lakshmi then enters Chanchala once more:

1. Divine Doubt
2. The Pall of Light - Stack to mitigate damage, pop Vril to avoid bleed debuff
3. Vril Restoration (Circle and Z)
4. Divine Desire - Cast at the same time as the Vril Restoration
5. Vril Restoration (Circle and Z)
6.   Stotram - Pop Vril to survive, will kill those with bleed debuff or not topped off on HP

• Lakshmi drops Chanchala and starts begins her final rotation:

1. Alluring Arm
2. The Pall of Light
3. The Path of Light

• After some time, if Lakshmi is still not dead, she will soft enrage by using Chanchala
• If she is still not killed, Lakshmi will hard enrage and cast Divine Desire until the party wipes

Mechanics

Ability	Type	Description
Vril	Usable Action	Vril is used slightly differently from Emanation. Players will start with 3 charges of Vril that must be spread out over the course of the fight. Using Vril has a similar effect to Emanation, preventing negating certain mechanics including Lakshmi's ultimate. Refill times can be found in the strategy and rotation sections. Because refill times are so few and far between, players should use Vril as few times as possible.
Tail Slap	Add Ability	Tanks should face adds away from the party while maintaining top aggro to prevent a party-wide cleave.
Inner Demons	Add Ability	Easy to dodge telegraphed gaze attack. If missed, will cause stun to players caught by the gaze.
Stotram	Heal & Raid-wide Damage	Lakshmi will periodically heal adds by casting   Stotram. This ability also causes high raid-wide damage.
Hand of Grace	Telegraphed AoE	Works exactly the same as normal mode except three players will be targeted. Marked players are assigned a + line AoE. Spread out from the party and align yourselves so that there is no overlap to prevent excess damage.
The Pull of Light	Tank Buster	Heavy tank buster. Mitigate with cooldowns and heals.
The Path of Light	Frontal Cleave	Targets the second highest enmity target (marked as a "2" on the party list) with a blue marker. After a few seconds, Lakshmi unleashes a massive frontal cone attack in that player's direction. Bait the attack away from the group, but ensure that it also doesn't hit the main tank as well.
Alluring Arm	Telegraphed AoE	Lakshmi marks one player with a + line AoE and two other players will be marked with the lily pads. Those marked with the lily pads should spread to avoid overlapping splash damage, and the player marked with the + line AoE should align themselves appropriately to give the rest of the party a large safe zone. An easy way to deal with this is have the + line AoE align themselves directly in the middle of the arena behind Lakshmi and the two players marked with the lily pads move to one of the two large open corners. The unmarked players can then align themselves accordingly.
The Pall of Light	Stack Damage	Stack on the marked player to share damage.
Chanchala / Chimichanga / Chinchilla	Buff	Immediately use Vril as soon as Lakshmi starts her casting animation. Chanchala increases the damage of Lakshmi's attacks and adds new abilities to them. In addition, Chanchala also enables Lakshmi to use her Divine attacks.
Divine Denial (Chanchala)	Raid-wide Knockback	Arena-wide knockback AoE that will kill anyone who hasn't used Vril. This skill still causes knockback even with Vril, so be sure to stand close to the center to avoid being knocked off the platform.
Hand of Beauty (Chanchala)	Telegraphed AoE	Both healers will be marked with puddles. Healers should split to opposite sides of the arena. Healers should use Vril before the puddle drops to avoid status debuffs. The puddles dropped in this form will spawn, grow in size twice, then disappear.
The Pull of Light (Chanchala)	Tank Buster	The same skill as above, except in this form Lakshmi does a significantly larger amount of damage. Tanks can pop a Vril to survive the tank buster.
The Path of Light (Chanchala)	Frontal Cleave	The player with the second most aggro will be targeted with a heavy hitting frontal cone AoE. In Chanchala form, it will do substantially more damage and a Vril can be popped in order to survive this mechanic.
Divine Desire (Chanchala)	Raid-wide Pull & Bleed	Lakshmi moves to the middle of the arena and casts an arena-wide pull on all players. Players should pop Vril and stay away from the center to avoid the bleed AoE cast around Lakshmi.
Water III	Add Ability	Marks players with an orange marker. Marked players need to move away from the group to avoid splash damage.
Alluring Embrace	Ultimate	Players must pop Vril to survive Lakshmi's ultimate. The ultimate will trigger once the "alluring embrace" gauge reaches 0 regardless if adds in the arena are still alive.
Divine Doubt	Raid-wide Confuse	Players will be debuffed with Confusion for 16 seconds causing players to attack each other. Using Vril before this ability will shorten the amount of time Confusion lasts. To avoid ganks, players should split off into groups of two to prevent 2-on-1 situations.
Vril Restoration	Telegraphed AoE	Vril bubbles will be spawned around the arena in two separate patterns. These will occur in two sets. The first set includes the following two patterns. The first pattern will be in a "Z" shape, while the second will be in a straight line. The second set includes the next two patterns. The first pattern will be in a circle around the outer edge of the arena. The second pattern will be a "Z" shape again. During these two sets, AoEs will also spawn around the arena. Players should avoid AoEs where possible and replenish their Vril.
The Pall of Light (Chanchala)	Stack Damage	Similar to the original form, except it hits much harder and applies a heavy bleed debuff to anyone not under the effect of Vril.
Stotram (Chanchala)	Raid-wide Damage	Very heavy hitting skill.   Stotram in Chanchala form will instantly kill anyone with the bleed debuff or anyone not topped off. Players should pop a Vril to survive.
