“

Making your way through the Praetorium, you sweep aside wave after wave of defenders before finally coming face-to-face with Gaius van Baelsar himself. Unable to overcome you by his own hands, the Black Wolf takes control of the Ultima Weapon and sets upon you once more. Do what you have come to do, and see that the magitek monstrosity never threatens Eorzea again.

— In-game description

Ultima Weapon

Reason: The rest of it

Phase 1: Titan

Uses landslides and earthquakes. Occasionally summons Titan, who does a proximity AOE and some more landslides. Ends with trapping you all in granite gaols, but Hydaelyn will break you out.

Phase 2: Garuda

[insert mechanics] Ends with putting up an impenetrable shield, but Hydaelyn will dispel it.

Phase 3: Ifrit

Eruption. [Also other things.] Ends with channeling an Eruption to cover the whole arena, but Hydaelyn stops that too.

Phase 4: Ultima

Magitek rays, crashing gunships. [Other things?] Ends with channeling another Ultima. It will look like you're definitely going to fail the DPS check, but Hydaelyn will grant you a level 3 Limit Break and DPS boost so you can finish him off.

-{{section-stub|reason=6.1 changes versus the old Prae fight}}
+{{section-stub|reason=The rest of it}}
-During the beginning of the Ultima Weapon fight, you cannot harm the boss as it has a buff that reduces all damage to single digits. The healer should therefore be careful as the tank will be unable to hold aggro compared to that generated by any healing. After a short while, or a certain amount of damage (it is unclear), the boss will lose the buffs and can be dealt with as normal. The tank should {{item icon|Provoke}} as soon as this happens to establish a firm aggro lead.

+====Phase 1: Titan====
-:'''Garuda''' is an narrow donut around the arena edge for moderate damage.
