At Final Fantasy 14 FanFest 2023 North America, attendees were given the opportunity to challenge Asura, the upcoming Primal Trial that will appear through a new content patch. I took this opportunity in hand and fought my way through the FanFest online queue (which required attendees to uninstall and reinstall the app to get it working properly) to mark my place in line with other prospective Warriors of Light to tackle this new Trial.
For those unfamiliar with Trials, they’re effectively 8-man boss fights. These instances are arguably my favorite part of Final Fantasy 14, so I was super eager to fight Asura and see what she’d bring to the table by comparison to previous Trials like Heavensward’s Nidhogg, Endwalker’s Golbez, or Stormblood’s Susano. Waiting in line I ended up pulling together a group comprised of James Galizio of RPGSite, and the following Warriors of Light: Thallan Gildeford, King Ma, Ishtar Valentine, Worstluck NA, and Kini Solis. The final four in that lineup are five-time Legends, which means they’ve cleared all currently available Ultimate fights — some of the hardest pieces of content in the game.
