    ^if you are thinking of what I think you are thinking of that snake is a world boss not a fate so that’s a completely different kettle of fish

    As a healer main in this game for nigh on 14 years all I can say is that I’m tired. My role has been eroded of complexity and expression for 3 expansions. I’ve watched the tanks do my role for me for 2 expansions and my feedback and critiques continue to fall on deaf ears.

    I have no idea who modern healers are designed for but I know now it’s not me. This is the first expansion I’m truly considering dropping the healer role and not returning, so if that was the goal- congratulations I guess

    "The Serpentlord Seethes is a level 100 FATE spawned in Shaaloani." - https://ffxiv.consolegameswiki.com/w...ntlord_Seethes

    It is indeed a fate. And as such, if the level cap gets raised to 110 from another expansion, it will ask you to sync down since it is a fate.

    That is 100% a world boss. That’s exactly who I thought you were discussing

    That is not a normal fate

    I'm sorry but I don't follow? The wiki says it's a fate. And it has the fate icon. A world boss is something like those S-rank hunts that require groups of people if you're doing them during current expansion, but you end up being able to plow through and destroy easily after a few expansions raise the level cap and obtainable iLevel.

    There is two types of world bosses

    SS rank hunts who require specific spawn conditions and don’t appear on the map, these are denoted by the line in chat “you sense the presence of an incredibly powerful mark”

    The other is fate chain Enders. They are technically fates but they are functionally the same, being world bosses that require specific spawn conditions and that have long CD’s. That snake, chi, Odin are all examples of fate world bosses

    That snake is not in any way shape or form a normal fate

    I think you're both correct. Ttokrrone is TECHNICALLY a FATE but it's a special one with specific spawn conditions, making it also a world boss. Either way, I wish we had more of these and some way to let people know they exist. Unless you happen to come across one in the wild (which is unlikely because nobody runs around the open world + they tend to get killed fairly quickly), you don't know it's a thing. It's the same with the really high rank hunt marks. Trains tend to kill those basically as soon as they spawn and the average player has to go out of their way to find out about them and participate, which is a shame.
