Final Fantasy XIV Guide – Lost City of Amdapor (Diabolos) Overview

Final Fantasy XIV - The Lost City of Amdapor

Born in magic, the ancient city of Amdapor lived in a splendor and died in agony. As the Fifth Astra Era gave way to the Sixth Umbral and the ensuing catastrophe, the agent of Amdapor’s destruction slept. Now, the seal that has held so long is softening like windfallen fruit- and what blind worms writhe underneath the skin of the dead city?

There are several trash mobs that you need to be aware about:

Before the First Boss:
Mold Colony – This enemy should die first while the Tank is holding the aggro of the Hecteyes.
Tainted Mold – Be wary of the enemy’s poison. This can be killed easily by simply hitting them.
Hecteyes – The last one to be killed

Baalzephon – He will spawn a group of Dirty Eye and White Magestone. Here’s how to take them down:
Dirty Eyes – Kill them first by getting them into one group and AOE them down.
White Magestone – Must be killed next since it will heal Baalzephon
Baalzelphon- With the White Magestone dead, simply attack this enemy to take it down.

Decaying Gourmand

The first boss in The Lost City of Amdapor is quite easy. The mechanic is pretty basic and it shouldn’t give the group a problem taking it down.

– The only attack that everyone should be worried about is its Prey. When you see the boss casting this spell, a link will appear to a random party member that is not a tank. After a few seconds of being targeted, the party member will be eaten. When this happen, kill the “Voracious Maw” that spawns shortly. Once it’s down, the party member that was eaten will be free.

– Aside from Prey, the boss will also give Poison. Have the healer use Esuna.
