'''Warning! The information on this page has not been verified to be 100% accurate for the Horizon server. Please remove this warning if it can be verified.'''

==Walkthrough== 
{{Verification}} Please note that when you've begun [[Dawn]] for [[Chains of Promathia]] and [[Awakening]] for [[Rise of the Zilart]], your in-game Mission tracker will '''stop updating your mission progress''' ''until'' [[The Last Verse]] is completed. It will show that you're still on Dawn and Awakening even if you've completed it, so while you're progressing through Storms of Fate, Shadows of the Departed and Apocalypse Nigh, you will need to keep track of your own mission progress. {{Verification}}
*Go to [[Ru'Lude Gardens]], enter the Ducal Palace for a cutscene with [[Esha'ntarl]].
*Go to [[Riverne - Site B01|Riverne - Site #B01]]. You will receive a cutscene upon checking the Dilapidated Gate.
*Head to the green Unstable Displacement on the west side of {{Location|Riverne - Site B01|E-7}}. This acts as a battlefield entrance similar to the mini-battlefield in [[Ghelsba Outpost]].
**The island this Unstable Displacement is on is only accessible through another, "normal" Unstable Displacement; one [[Giant Scale]] will thus be required to reach it.
*Check the green Unstable Displacement once for a cutscene.
*Check it again and select the battle "Storms of Fate" when ready.
**The BCNM menu will not pop-up until everyone in the alliance has viewed the cutscene.

=== Boss Battle for "Storms of Fate" ===

You will enter the battlefield facing the Wyrmking [[Bahamut]]. Up to 18 people (one full [[Alliance]]) may enter the battlefield. This battle is uncapped. You are given 30 minutes to defeat him. HP/MP will be fully restored upon entry.

Bahamut has about 26000 HP.  He casts the following spells:

* Defensive: [[Protect V]], [[Shell V]], [[Stoneskin]], [[Phalanx]], [[Cure V]]
** He is fully buffed at the beginning of the fight.
* Offensive: [[Fire V]], [[Flare II]], [[Firaga IV]], [[Silencega]], [[Dispelga]], [[Graviga]]

He uses the following special attacks:

* '''Absolute Terror:''' [[AoE]] [[Terror]], absorbed by [[Utsusemi]]
* '''Trample:''' [[AoE]] damage (~200-500), [[Knockback]] and [[Bind]], absorbed by [[Utsusemi]]
* '''Sweeping Flail:''' Large [[AoE]] (range 20) damage (~100-300) and [[Knockback]], absorbed by [[Utsusemi]]
** Used when someone behind him gets hate
* '''Touchdown:''' [[AoE]] wind damage (~300) and [[Knockback]]
* '''Tempest Wing:''' [[Cone Attack]] wind(?) damage (~400)
* '''Megaflare:''' Wide [[Cone Attack]] fire damage (~800).
** He uses this every 10% HP he loses.  
** He insults the players before he uses it: "Children of Vana'diel, what do you think to accomplish by fighting for your lives?"
** Don't bother stunning this, he'll just use it again when Stun wears off.  Save your Stuns for his spells, particurlarly [[Firaga IV]] and [[Dispelga]].
* '''Gigaflare:''' Wide [[Cone Attack]] fire damage (~1200)
** Used instead of Megaflare at 10% HP.
** Before this he says "Contemplate on the good your death will bring as your mortal form is consumed by my brilliance!"

When Bahamut is defeated, you will receive the {{KeyItem}}[[Whisper of the Wyrmking]]. ''Return to Ru'Lude Gardens and enter the palace again for a final cutscene'', where you are told to assemble "an army of adventurers" and challenge Bahamut again...
