Walkthrough

Monster Behavior

  • Enemies in Promyvion are called "The Empty". Each Promyvion has 4 different kinds of Empty: Wanderers, Weepers, Seethers, and a final type that is exclusive to each Promyvion. The monsters have a level range depending on islands like so:
  • Weepers and Wanderers are the weakest monster types, besides Strays.
  • Do not bother with Sneak or Invisible, because all monsters on all islands are True Sight and aggressive, but only enemies with similar elemental cores will link.

General Information

  • To proceed to the next island in the sequence, you must find and defeat a Memory Receptacle. They appear on teleport platforms found on each island. There are several possible locations on the second and third islands. The locations of those Memory Receptacles is random. Receptacles spawn several Strays. If the Memory Receptacle is real, a Memory Stream appears upon defeat, and you have three minutes to enter this stream and proceed to the next island. If the Memory Receptacle is a decoy, nothing appears.
  • If you need to return to a previous island, search for a platform that has a live portal, but no Memory Receptacle in it. That is the portal back.
  • On the final island, there is no Memory Receptacle, but a zoneline to the Spire (battlefield entrance). It may be very difficult to avoid aggro on the fourth floor if you have no high level players to clear the path, but if you get caught and the castle-like structure is nearby, you should be able to zone easily.
  • If using anima in a party, you may want to agree on an order of use for anima. They last 30 seconds and overlap (using one during the effect of another of the same type resets the duration to 30 seconds), but panicking and using three at once is a waste. Also note that the effects of anima stack, so you can use Psychoanima and Hysteroanima in pairs to stop all attacks.

Ancient Flames Beckon

  • Boss fights allow up to six players to fight. The fight is called "Ancient Flames Beckon."
  • Buffs except food cancel upon entering the battlefield.
  • Anima have the same effects on all three bosses:
    • Psychoanima causes the boss to be 100% intimidated by players for ~30 seconds, stopping all normal attacks (prevents 7-8 attacks).
    • Hysteroanima causes the boss's special attacks to fail for ~20 seconds. They are still readied, but do not execute. This is especially useful in the last 20% of the boss' HP, when they start to spam their TP attacks.
    • Terroanima causes the boss to run away from the player with hate for ~30 seconds.

Promyvion - Mea

Mea's boss is the Delver (Craver type). Its TP attacks are:

Brain Spike: Single-target damage.
Carousel: AoE damage.
Promyvion Brume: AoE damage, Poison, and resets hate.
Empty Crush: Single-target damage.
Impalement: Drops the target to 5% HP and reduces target's enmity, similiar to Throat Stab. Can be avoided by running out of range.
Don't panic when it uses this attack, because it reduces enmity to minimum, causing the Delver to move onto someone else, giving time to Cure. If solo, it is worthwhile to have medicines ready for this attack. This is its deadliest TP move.

Beating Promyvion - Mea grants the Key ItemLight of Mea.

Promyvion - Dem

Dem's boss is the Progenerator (Gorger type). Its TP attacks are:

Beating Promyvion - Dem grants the Key ItemLight of Dem.

Promyvion - Holla

Holla's boss is the Wreaker (Thinker type). Its TP attacks are:

Beating Promyvion - Holla grants the Key ItemLight of Holla.

After Completion

After obtaining your third light, you appear in Lufaise Meadows after a cutscene.

Notes

  • While it is possible to get the experience point bonus from each of the 3 Promyvions in one day, there is a cooldown period before you can receive the bonus for the same Promyvion.
  • The Key ItemTavnazian Archipelago Supplies cannot yet be obtained. You must first return to Tavnazian Safehold during the mission Sheltering Doubt.
  • If you are a high level doing the Promyvions, you can ignore the parts in Jeuno and go straight to a Crag and fight through it. The Bosses and most NMs are very easy to solo at 70+ as long as you watch out for the enemies that are still aggressive toward you.
