*The [[The Shrine of Ru'Avitau]] is full of magic aggro, so even mages should bring along [[Silent Oil]] and [[Prism Powder]]. 
*Anyone who can sub Ninja will have a far easier time of this BC. That includes mages, as most of the attacks in the fight are absorbed by [[Utsusemi]]. 
*You may need someone to operate the Yellow door. The closest Monolith to your location is around I/J-9/10. 
<br>
*Go to ({{Location Tooltip|area=Ru'Aun Gardens|pos=H-9}}) in [[Ru'Aun Gardens]] and enter the Shrine. You'll be on Map 2. Sneak and head south. Go past ({{Location Tooltip|area=The Shrine of Ru'Avitau|map=Map 2|pos=J-7}}) through the first yellow door. Go west from here, to the room with 2 Monoliths in ({{Location Tooltip|area=The Shrine of Ru'Avitau|map=Map 2|pos=H-7}}). You'll need Invisible, then go south to a room with 2 [[Dark Elemental]]s around ({{Location Tooltip|area=The Shrine of Ru'Avitau|map=Map 2|pos=H-10}}.
*Go north, down a flight of stairs to the [[Celestial Nexus]] at ({{Location Tooltip|area=The Shrine of Ru'Avitau|map=Map 2|pos=H-9}}).
*Gather together and get ready for the last BC of the expansion. You'll be fighting [[Eald'narche]], who has two forms.

| [[Celestial Nexus]] || [[Eald'narche]] - First Form ||
*[[Exoplate]]:
**'''Gaea Stream:''' Single target damage {{verification}} (~200). Absorbed by [[Utsusemi]].
**'''Uranos Cascade:''' AoE physical damage (~200-400). Absorbed by [[Utsusemi]].
**'''Cronos Sling:''' Cone attack physical damage (~300-600). Absorbed by [[Utsusemi]].
**'''Phase Shift:''' AoE (large area) physical damage (~600-1300), Additional effect of [[Stun (Status)|Stun]] and/or [[Bind (Status)|Bind]]. Absorbed by [[Utsusemi]].
***Used at around 66%, 33% and 1-2% HP. It gets progressively more powerful.  
***At 1% the [[Exoplate]]s will '''not''' die until they '''Phase Shift'''. It is possible to go below 66 and 33% before '''Phase Shift'''
*[[Eald'narche]]:
**[[Eald'narche]] uses ancient magic and will cast [[Sleepga II]]. Low HP (~2,000) will end him fairly quickly, however. 
||
*There will be 2 [[Orbital]]s, which have very little HP. They will be resummoned if killed. They heavily resist [[Lullaby]], but [[Sleep]] is reliable. 
*[[Exoplate]]s surround [[Eald'narche]] and have about 10,000 HP. It does not melee.
*Go all out, and defeat the Exoplates as quick as possible. You'll want to keep mages far out of range for Phase Shift. When it appears time for a Phase Shift, try to get everyone healed to full and get shadows back up. This will negate most, if not all, damage.
*--If you wipe, wait until you are ejected, as you'll aggro anywhere on the battlefield.-- Does not seem to be accurate. Large area you can raise without aggro (6/8/24).
|-
| [[Celestial Nexus]] || [[Eald'narche]] - Second Form || 
*'''Vortex:''' Medium-range AoE, low damage (~100), with an additional effect of [[Terror]] and [[Bind]]. Absorbed by [[Utsusemi]].
*'''Stellar Burst:''' AoE, low damage (~100), with an additional effect of [[Silence]]. Absorbed by [[Utsusemi]].
*'''Omega Javelin:''' Single target damage (~150), with an additional effect of [[Petrification]]. Absorbed by [[Utsusemi]]. 
||
*The second form is against [[Eald'narche]] only. He will teleport around like [[Ark Angel TT]] and cast various Black Magic spells, including [[Bindga]]. 
*He still has relatively low HP (~2,500), but may or may not have a large defense and magic defense boost. 
*You have 1 minute before he aggro's, regardless of your range from him. 
*It has been observed that he may be heavily resistant to magic, however, a Tarutaru BLM/NIN was seen doing all of the damage to this form, ending the fight in 3 spells. 
*He has very fast melee speed, but not quite the speed of Hundred Fists.
*[[Poison Potion]]s and [[Stun]] can make the second form a lot easier.
