The beep beep boop phase reminds me of a gameshow.. "Ok, you have 5 seconds to guess which of your party members are going to die. And your time starts... now!"
Me, A dragoon who's targeted for the next attack seeing the healer has the stack mechanic but nobody is near them: Sometimes sacrifices need to be made
Nah that's the Illuminati's fault for rewinding time. Alexander himself is a pretty cool guy, only freezing time in bursts rather than rewinding like a cheating bastard.
As old as this fight is now still has one of the best OSTs especially the dam freaking time stop. First time I saw that mechanic and hearing the timestop segment I could not help but bop my head to the beat
Same here Rise itself is 10/10 and the time stop section just adds so much to it (the song and the fight). I loved being in the middle of an attack and the game just pausing your pose resulting in some funny looking poses
My favorite part is it seems to match the song 1:1 from when time gets paused, it's like they took out the key parts of the song and only left a small metronome that counts down before time stop ends.
A boss freezing time to get in free hits on you should feel like the most unfair and awful feeling in boss fights. But I always get hyped during the time stops. The way they do it is just so smart, I gotta respect the free hits.
FrozenSolid90 i Think it should have been different and have it so the booms match up with the timestops and the sonic boom part matching final judgement
Also can we just mention how the first thing we hear when we start Phase two. is "Sonic Boom." I have stared down many primals the size of skyscrapers, but this one one legit scared me.
Pretty sure Alexander is canonically the strongest thing in the game so far, including the WoL. But this final battle, where you try not to overpower the beast but to prove yourself worthy of inheriting the future from it, staring down this impossibly powerful Utopian Primal while it judges you worthy, it's so damn good. And that's to say nothing of how well the story as a whole ended.
There are many things stronger than the WoL. The elder primal Bahamut, I am talking about the big ass dragon not that thing called Bahamut "prime" which is technically his soul or something. The Warring Triad, when you face them it is stated either by them or the npcs around you that you must "strike them down now before they regain their full power" meaning you fight a watered down version of them. The extreme versions do not count because they are technically non-cannon. Alexander, the same example as Bahamut. There is no way in hell the WoL take down the Alexander you see outside Iddleshyre. You just can't. Any of the midgarsorm child. For instance, to battle Nidhogg you need the power of one of the great Wyrm's eyes to protect yourself, otherwise you are fucked. Cloud of Darkness. Even if you destroy her physical form she is inmortal so she can fuck you up anyways and the WoL had to run since there is no means to kill her.. As for the Allagans, the WoL could NOT take down Ultima Weapon by himself he had the need to have Hydaleyn herself helping him. I am pretty sure he won't be able to take down the Allagan super weapon, Omega. He'd probably face Omega's soul or some shit like they did with Alex and Bahamut. The WoL is really powerful right now but he has his limits, he is stronger than your regular primals which are gods nonetheless, stronger than a god-king Thordan but weaker than many others. Including Allagan creations.
This vid gives a good view of the DRK's LB3. I mean I knew the dark knight cuts open a fissure above the party, but I didn't know that darkness literally spills out like a liquid to bathe the party in protection. Best tank LB by far.
@Joker you shoot your shots into the air and make a giant shield. I'm sorry but nothing beats ripping the literal fabric of reality to let darkness onto the battle and use it to shield your entire party
this is my fav primal music to date. the time stop just sync up so well with the flow of the son and just adds so much to the fight. what is also cool, is they mixed ff11 alexander with ff9 alexander and added the time paradox theory story. I was extremely happy.
I also like that if your a dps you see a part of this fight that no one else experiences. It's not super important but the whole future look part always is like fuck yeah - we did it guys.
Thank you for this upload. I've recently beaten the Alexander raid and wanted to listen to Rise again (Time stop included) but the other uploaders on UA-cam don't include it thankfully you do
has soken released lyrics anywhere.. my own lyrics don't suffice. I hear give em the makeup, cool with the cool whip, give em the bop bop bop with the main dish.
I prefer it with the timestops but Id' really like to hear a longer version of the timestops because ti sounds like it could a song in and of it's own.
i came to check it out if i was going crazy cause i was in this fight and i didn't hear no beep? cause it just kept playing the song instead of timestop theme
Yeah, it's pretty much impossible to know until the official lyrics are released. Getting flashbacks from when Metal was being transcribed and pretty much everyone got it wrong.
With this Primal it almost felt like that was super on-purpose; remember how Locus had that one line 'Delirium unsuspected'? I think Alexander's been deliberately screwing with us from the start. Like, some of the lyrics in Locus in particular sound deliberately obtuse, said in a way that you wouldn't think them to be what they are unless you read the actual lines.
The beep beep boop phase reminds me of a gameshow.. "Ok, you have 5 seconds to guess which of your party members are going to die. And your time starts... now!"
It's the Dragoon. It's almost always the Dragoon. If it's not the Dragoon, it's the Blackmage.
The actual music that plays during the Temporal Stasis, believe it or not is called Stasis Loop

It's me. I was recently that dragoon.@@Kylesico912x
Those countdowns to Teraflare/Divine Judgement are some of the coolest/most intimidating things I've experienced in gaming.
The cool thing about the timestops is that your buffs/debuffs and cooldown timers freeze as well.
Kinda wish that applied to cast bars as well...
Doesn't freeze debuffs you've applied though which is awesome tbh
Prinny Laharl Well that makes sense. Alexander isn't frozen in time :)
He is a cheating ass though for trying to prevent the fight by rewinding time to before we went in to fight him and summoning himself into the fight
Nah that's the Illuminati's fault for rewinding time. Alexander himself is a pretty cool guy, only freezing time in bursts rather than rewinding like a cheating bastard.
So fight a summoned primal inside itself that has the ability to summon itself.... inside itself.
>________>
Havoctheend madness isnt it
>_________> CUTE! n.n
And then it sends you back in time to avoid an attack, so you can survive to be sent back in time to help yourself avoid it.
Akaihiryuu77 Yeah Alex intentionally broke the time line to send your character back in time to save yourself from Alex itself.
It's just Alexander's stand.

@@ThatNormalBunny it's why this is my favorite raid fight still. The presentation and music/sound design are just top tier.

You know what would make this song a 12/10? If it started a few seconds sooner and the first boom was synced up with Divine Judgement going off...
FrozenSolid90 i Think it should have been different and have it so the booms match up with the timestops and the sonic boom part matching final judgement
God damn this is going to go down as my favorite primal fight ever. The design and lore was a+, Square gave Alex the love he deserved.
the whole alexander backstory and progression was well done. The conclusion we came to was also heartwarming and gave us a sense of achievement too.

Yeah, it's rare to see any of the Tank LBs to be honest.
ya it similar to the gate protection in the first diabolos in lost city.
@Joker you shoot your shots into the air and make a giant shield. I'm sorry but nothing beats ripping the literal fabric of reality to let darkness onto the battle and use it to shield your entire party
It's the beat of the Timestops that have me coming back to this
this is my fav primal music to date. the time stop just sync up so well with the flow of the son and just adds so much to the fight.

Who is jamming to this in Oct 2024!?!?
At fanfest? i do!
0:44 BBC's news theme
Dem stops. My ears. So good mang.
the time stops have so much bass. I bumped this in my car and it was awesome.
I don't know what it is about the Timestop music bit but it makes the fight so much more tense.
The correct way to do this fight is to /flex on every timestop.
Thank you for this upload. I've recently beaten the Alexander raid and wanted to listen to Rise again (Time stop included) but the other uploaders on UA-cam don't include it thankfully you do
You're the hero we need.
has soken released lyrics anywhere.. my own lyrics don't suffice. I hear give em the makeup, cool with the cool whip, give em the bop bop bop with the main dish.
Not that I'm aware of, but I'm sure those are pretty close
Lyrics were released recently ^-^ It's very weird tho.
steampunk art is always so fascinating to me. that is also why I love Kurumi's clock spirit ability
It's so weird, before I was hating this raid and this theme, and now both are my fav lol
Thank you! I really like the timestops.
coolest ass thing in this fight is how your gcd timer and effects freezes
SANIC BEWM
CHAOS... CONTROL !
Fight again Alexander...please hold the line...please hold the line...fight again Alexander
Thanks to upload!
I wanted to timestop ver.
I'll be honest, yeah the timestops may be annoying to others, but it's the one time I get so hyped up with the music that plays.
I prefer it with the timestops but Id' really like to hear a longer version of the timestops because ti sounds like it could a song in and of it's own.
What a bad Dragoon, he died only once! :p
I LOVE THIS SO MUCH THANK YOU
ty for the timestop one! lol i highly reccomend going into the triple triad battlehall, i like it b/c its a jazzy rendition of the prelude, lol
Oooh, i love the timestops so muuuuch
Rise with me!
this is the coolest shit i have ever seen and the ost goes HARD
Really like the son and find the time stop music break pretty cool. Tempted to go into Savage to see how this fight is then.
Mixzawa sadistic...
Mixzawa 3.0 Honestly it's one of my favorite fights in the game.
I have my Static's first clear on my channel if you'd like to watch it.
Seeing Scourge's dot icon on the boss makes me nostalgic
OMG thanks you! I looked for the TImestops
This video makes me wish for a version of the song that plays when you travel back to the past during that fight! (The instrumental A11 one)
ua-cam.com/video/WUlEtRjKk_0/v-deo.htmlm24s It's not that riveting if I'm honest!
Huh, you're right. Guess i remembered it better than it really was. Thanks for the reply and upload!
Imagine this in Beat Saber, but everything freezing over during timestops.
Dis song! Why did I get my drop the first time round? I was ready to farm this guy a few times just for the song lol
I miss this fight so much just because of the music. Bring it to duty roulette please so I can just rock out.
1:15 sounds similar to one of the Chocobo Theme’s lmao
make a video only with the timestop
READY YOUR BODY AND SOUL FOR DIVINE JUDGEMENT
Dee, do you prefer the song with the time freeze or without?
Without, the novelty wears off pretty quickly IMO
I suppose so. The time freeze reminds me of Super Mario Bros 2 when you pause the game and most of the instruments are muted.
Thanks a lot!! You are great =D
i came to check it out if i was going crazy cause i was in this fight and i didn't hear no beep? cause it just kept playing the song instead of timestop theme
Yay~
If nothing else I miss the old school MCH gameplay here lol
*Literal fear.*
You da Real MVP.
Thanks.
At 0:27 i hear something like "pompelup" but it s a "french thing" then he may says something like "pump it all" tadada ?
il dit "Pump it up" oui la sonorité est très similaire ;)
If you don't stop all movement IRL when the timestop starts you're doing it wrong.
HA! That DRK is my FC leader!!
Yes my child, it is I.
Yes my child, it is I.
ghey
really gay
Did that song just say Sonic Boom?
Rings loud from the engines, ironclad murder gonna 'liminate the distance!
thx.. especially for the time stop lol
I didn't think anything could top Sephirot, Ravana, Bismarck, or Garuda, but I was proven wrong.
Unlimited Alexander Works
Wow.... almost 19,000 views and 0 dislikes! It just goes to show that people really love the timestops lol!
I kinda knew people would like it since pretty much every other comment in the other video was asking for it :P
I like the timestop version because I can show it to my friends who don't play MMOs to show them how cool the time stops were to fight against.
For the one who see this, it's me or in the last update they remove the Timestops beat ??
Now it'd be even better if I could figure out what they were saying.
Yeah, it's pretty much impossible to know until the official lyrics are released. Getting flashbacks from when Metal was being transcribed and pretty much everyone got it wrong.

woah that's actually pretty deep
well if you read the lines its how the goblins talk
I wonder if this is the same group that did the Titan themes
Well, it's the same group for all the FFXIV music, so yes.
was wondering if you were gonna add the time stops ty!
Press 5 for BOOP BOOP BOOP BEEEP! ♥
Hey i was wondering if you could play that song again
Hey, have you uploaded "Rise of the White Raven" somewhere? If not, do you think you could?
Boop Boop Boop Beep :)
bro skipped the only part I wanted to see :(
SONIC BOOM!
does he say at the end, PUM BACK BACK BACK BACK NUTCKIN? lol
I need to know what the music that plays during timestops are called, its so fucking addictive ;-;
It's called Beep Beep Boop.
I don't like this song but I'm always singing it and getting hype to it during raid lol
Time Stop Beat Drop should have been an attack.
ZA WARUDA
Whats the in game roll called?
If you haven't gotten it yet its called Rise. You should have gotten it for completing Alexander or the mission after
Wait is this the games final boss?
nope! this is the final boss of the alexander normal raid from the heavensward expansion
@@EPICZEUS. huh ok
*ZA WARUDO! [Dubstep Fart]*
Dio...
does that guitar sound like the generic battle theme to anyone else?
Club Creator o/
The problem with buying the soundtrack to support it is quite simple.
I can't.
They don't sell it in my country.
ZA WARUDO
All of the creators have such an amazing fight.
