• How does raise work?
Normal raising methods do not work in BA, but there are a few special ways to get raised:
- Spirit of the Remembered = 70% chance upon K.O.
- Sacrifice L = 100% chance but user gets the "Doom" debuff
- Healer LB3 = 100% chance

• Mark of Mortality?
- Getting hit by an avoidable mechanic = 1 stack of the Mark of Mortality debuff
- 3 stack will result in a doom
→ Play it safe and respect mechanics

• Logos Manipulator?
There is a Logos Manipulator at the entrance of BA to craft wisdoms + actions.
You cannot come back to this point after you dropped down to the first bosses.
Do never use /return unless told to do so. It teleports you to base camp.

• /magiaauto?
Put 5 magicite in 1 slot and activate /magiaauto at the entrance.
This will automatically spin your wheel to offensive.
Using /magiaauto again will put you into defensive, using it a 3rd time turns it off.

• Question

We will encounter elemental-themed rooms twice :

1. after Raiden and before Absolute Virtue, we search for a hidden portal in 6 rooms.
Be careful about mobs and traps.
2. After we went through the portal, we enter a second set of rooms: Support Rooms

Click on the image to enlarge it!

Support Rooms
• 6 Rooms: 1 trap per room + 2 enemies to spawn
• every party covers 1 room
• Tanks use invuln to pop the trap (inform your healers if Dark Knight)
• Tanks turn stance on, use a defensive Wisdom and go into defensive magia:
/magiaauto def
• When everyone is ready: all Tanks stand in the portal: spawn 2 mobs

Note about Reflect:
The damage in Earth Room can be reflected, including ground AoEs. This is sometimes done when not all parties are filled.
This only works for Earth Room.

Feint & Shell
- Feint L: Reduces evasion of the boss, use when in melee range. Keep it up.
- Shell L: Applied to everyone before the pull, raidwides hurt.

• Eidos: Changes the color of AV's bracelet / applies a buff to the boss
• Hostile Aspect: "Puddle mechanic" - close to opposite color
• Medusa Jaevelin: huge conal AoE - stay close and doge
• Impact Stream: room split - stand on opposite color, treat as raidwide
• Turbulent Aether: "Tethers" - stand inside an opposite color puddle

Refresh L + Perception L
If you were assigned one of the following, you can swap them out for a tray with Wisdom + DPS action here, they are no longer needed:
- Refresh L (Healer only!) → if you have Bravery L, it's useful for AV and Ozma!
- Perception L (DPS only!) → bring an additional DPS action for AV and Ozma!

Shell
- Shell L: Applied to everyone before the pull, shared damage hurts.

Key Mechanics (short):
• Acceleration Bomb: Debuff. Stop moving and (auto-) attacking, put your weapon away, untarget the boss.
• Meteor: Place them on the markers 1 and 2. One meteor per marker.
• Blackhole : Everyone stand on the assigned buffer.

• Debuff on 3 random players across the raid.
• Do not move / (auto-) attack / emote.
• Sheathe your weapon, untarget the boss, wait until timer runs out.You explode in a deadly AoE if you move when the timer runs out.
If you realise early enough: move to the ring to avoid getting a meteor.See below how to make your Debuffs easily visible from HUD menu.

• Red marker and big AoE around 2 players per platform.
• Bring marker to the back or the left, on the 1 and 2 marker.
• Look for the second meteor. Adjust to each other.Move back to the group when they turn into a proximity marker.Off Tanks: Turn stance on and provoke / grab aggro off the adds.
Everyone kill adds as fast as possible.

• Melees & Tanks stay on the plattform for uptime (A, B or C marker).
• Ranged & Healers move off the platform and to the left on the ring (the 2 marker).
• You need to be on a black hole buffer when the cast goes off.

Congratulations!
You’ve cleared The Baldesion Arsenal. Or at least, its guide… Once you do clear, find your Demi-Ozma mount in your achievements: “Battle” → “Field Operations” tab
PS: Don’t be afraid if you died and got sucked out, there will always be more runs ✨

• Question

What is Support Fate?
The actual name is "The Baldesion Arsenal: Expedition Support", which the community often shortens to "Support" or "Soup".
The Fate spawns when the main parties activate the portals in Elemental Rooms and needs to be cleared to allow the raid to kill Absolute Virtue.
→ located in the south-west of Hydatos and drops 30 Hydatos Crystals.
It applies the same buff as Ovni to everyone with a Gold rating.
After Support, 8 random blue portals will spawn, which turn into 8 random red portals.
Support party will take these portals and join the main parties afterwards.
