General Information

AAC Light-heavyweight Tier (Savage) is the first section of The Arcadion (Savage), the main 8-player high-end raid in Dawntrail. Released on July 30, 2024, two weeks after Light-heavyweight Normal, AAC Light-heavyweight (Savage) requires players with item level of 700 or higher to enter. Once unlocked, players can use Party Finder or other means of forming a full premade party before entering the raid, which is located in Raid Finder → Raids.

Unlock

To access AAC Light-heavyweight Tier (Savage), players must speak with Gabbro in Solution Nine (X:22.3 Y:17.1) with a level 100 Disciple of War/Magic after completing the quest, Feature QuestThe Neoteric Witch. They do not need to have completed any prior Savage raids.

Upon registering for and completing an AAC Light-heavyweight Tier (Savage) duty, the player's weekly progress will be updated to that point, preventing them from obtaining rewards from previous floors regardless of whether they have completed them for the week.

Example: A player has yet to complete AAC Light-heavyweight M1 (Savage) for the week. They cannot register for AAC Light-heavyweight M2 (Savage). However, they join a premade party in which the leader has completed AAC Light-heavyweight M1 (Savage) for the week and can register for AAC Light-heavyweight M2 (Savage). The player can enter AAC Light-heavyweight M2 (Savage), but upon entering, they will forfeit all rewards from AAC Light-heavyweight M1 (Savage) until the next weekly reset.

Reward eligibility is reset every Tuesday at 8:00 (GMT).

  • In the event a raid is underway when reward eligibility is reset, players will still be permitted to vie for items during the upcoming week.

Rewards

Upon completing AAC Light-heavyweight Tier (Savage) duties, one treasure coffer will appear containing Dark Horse Champion's Equipment Coffers and other rewards, which can be rolled on. Using an equipment coffer transforms it into gear corresponding to the user's current job. Duplicate equipment coffers in a single treasure coffer will not appear. In addition to a weapon coffer, the coffer that appears upon completing AAC Light-heavyweight M4 (Savage) yields a random Dark Horse Champion's Weapon.

The number of drops in the coffer is decreased if one or more party members have completed the duty for the week. No coffer will appear if five or more party members have completed the duty for the week.

Item Exchange

In addition to gear, players will receive an AAC Illustrated: LHW Edition from each area, which can be exchanged for gear of your choosing. Instead of being rolled on, these automatically go to the player's inventory upon completing the duty.

By speaking with Hhihwi in Solution Nine (X:8.7 Y:13.4), players can exchange AAC Illustrated: LHW Edition from AAC Light-heavyweight Tier (Savage) for corresponding gear.
