Strategy

Abilities

Chaotic Strike - Fears 2 players not top enmity after a short duration. They will walk slowly towards Ramuh then get killed by the melee AoE Thunderspark by Ramuh if Chaos/Seduced is not broken by Thunderstorm. This is a team coordination mechanic, think T8 ballistic missile. Grey Arbiter - Add, just kill them all to not die to Judgement Bolt. Does low damage across the field. They also have an ability that fires at Ramuh that lowers the time left until Judgement bolt, so kill them sequentially.

Judgement Bolt - Negligible damage if all adds were killed, otherwise 30k and you die.

Orbs - Eat 3 to give a shield for a minute that prevents you from dying to Shock Strike, otherwise it does like 17k damage and goes through Hallowed. Building shield also removes tether. The more orbs are out, the more damage Thunderstorm deals. Managing shield duration is the tank swap mechanic. Eating more than 3 will give an 'overcharged' shield that reduces healing per stack but still blocks Shock Strike. Caps at 3 stacks.

Rolling Thunder - Links two players together, puts a dot debuff as well as deals damage on any action. 1 person linked needs to eat 3 orbs to break. Can be the target of Chaos Strike.

Thunderstorm - targets random players, tracks target, after a short duration deals AoE on target. May also target ground. The ground target ones will drop an orb. Damage from this ability breaks 'Seduced' from Chaos Strike.

Thunderspark - melee AoE, moderate damage, but kills Chaotic Strike targets.

Lore

Satisfied that the Warriors of Light have passed his trial, the primal Ramuh departs Eorzea for the aetherial sea. His sylphic thralls, however, unconvinced that their territory is truly safe, have focused their deep-rooted fear and spite into summoning their god anew. Can you rise to the challenge and prove your might once again? Crackling with the vengeful energies of his children's prayers, the Lord of Levin's judgment promises to be harsh indeed...
