Drawing upon his ever-fertile imagination, the wandering minstrel weaves his own interpretation of events surrounding the Flood of Light, the calamity that engulfed nigh the entirety of the First. From the cause of the Flood to the outcome of the struggles that followed, the man's evocative verse conjures up vivid images in your mind's eye─images of an alternate future that may have unfolded for Ryne, the young Oracle of Light...

— In-game description

Futures Rewritten (Ultimate) is a level 100 ultimate raid introduced in patch 7.11 with Dawntrail. The raid, which is abbreviated FRU, is based on the Eden raid series from Shadowbringers and is the sixth ultimate raid to be added.

Unlock and Requirements

Guide

All throughout this battle, the arena will be surrounded by a border that will kill any player who touches it.

Failing mechanics or being hit by avoidable AoEs will inflict a crippling -90% Damage Down icon1.png Damage Down debuff that lasts for 3 minutes. In addition, taking any stack mechanics with fewer than the intended number of players will inflict stacks of Mark of mortality icon.png Mark of Mortality to all players in the stack based on how many players were missing, which functions and lasts identically to the Damage Down debuff. If any player receives 2 or more stacks, they will explode and wipe the raid.

If the player does not need to be immediately alive for a mechanic, they should incapacitate themself by walking into the wall and then be resurrected to remove these debuffs, as the Weakness icon1.png Weakness debuff is only around a 25% damage loss that lasts for half the time.

Phase 1: Fatebreaker

Phase 2: Usurper of Frost

Intermission

Phase 3: Oracle of Darkness

Phase 4: Usurper of Frost and Oracle of Darkness

Reward

Upon completing Futures Rewritten (Ultimate), players can earn a separate reward once per week. Players who have yet to receive that week's reward can still claim it even if other members of the party have completed the duty prior to the weekly reset. This restriction will be removed in Patch 7.2.

The reward can be exchanged with Uah'shepya in Solution Nine (X:8.7 Y:13.5) for Ultimate Edenmorn Weapons.

Completion of this duty will unlock a new Adventurer Plate design in a later patch.

Trivia

  • The raid was first revealed at the 2024 Japanese Fan Festival, making it the first ultimate raid to be revealed in a Fan Festival prior to an expansion release, instead of a Live Letter prior to a major patch.
  • This is also the first ultimate raid to be referenced in the key art of a major patch.
  • The theme of this raid breaks the existing pattern of prior ultimate raids (8-man raid > main story > 8 man raid > main story, etc.) because the prior ultimate raid, Ultimate Raid The Omega Protocol (Ultimate) was also based on a raid series. An ultimate raid based on the Stormblood main story was apparently skipped.
  • This ultimate is named after Shadowbringers Patch 5.4 "Futures Rewritten", which introduced the final tier of the Eden raid series the ultimate is based off.
  • This is the first ultimate where all dialogue is fully voice acted. There are also several new voice lines compared to the original fights, including lines that have been re-recorded.
