Vanguard Theme "In Fulgur and Fire" - FFXIV OST 

Vanguard. Take your place among Doma Castle and The Twinning as some of the boppiest dungeons around!

I love that the Texans absolutely clown on the androids when they know they're coming, just because they've got superior marksmanship and actually know how to use cover.

WE FOUND THE TWINNING'S SPIRITUAL SUCCESSOR.

I don't think a dungeon theme has slapped this hard since The Twinning.

I really liked the 2nd boss in here, good luck to all the BLMs

Soken for real thought we wouldnt notice he just put Yakuza long battle music in as a dungeon theme

Much as Krile and friends say this isn't anything like they've seen before, I'd say this is almost a refreshing throwback to when we were storming Castrum Meridianum or Abania back in ARR and Stormblood. For all his bluster about how he's not like Garlemald Zoraal sure did build his fortifications like they did.

Anytime Soken has a bitchin’ electric guitar play the lead line, you know it’s gonna be a banger

They knew what they were doing when they put this track as the BGM for the Bard in the Job Actions

Songs like this is why there should be a sound option to not change music for boss fights.

Immediately jumps to SSS-tier in a game with a ton of stellar music.

Would've been so 🔥if the bike played this track

I gotta say, everyone involved in the artistic and musical direction of "Part 2" of Dawntrail did such an amazing job of creating such an otherworldly, incredibly oppressive, but also mysterious and inviting world in Alexandria. I was always uneasy and feeling some weird cosmic existential dread in the back half of the game, and I loved every minute of it. Of course, it was the contrast between this and the wonderfully "old world" of the front side that really added to the whiplash. Such a fantastic expansion.

Official name of this theme is "In Fulgur and Fire". An FC member of mine obtained the orchestrion scroll, apparently a rare drop from the dungeon.

"No king rules forever, The Twinning."

Ran this whole dungeon with a stupid grin on my face. loved it.

Another heavy contender for "Please give us an option to let the dungeon BGM keep playing during the minibosses"

I heard this theme in the Job Actions trailer, and I was able to recognize it in Shaaloani's area theme melody. I was just stunned- "how can THIS be for a Shaaloani dungeon?" But part of me was just so hyped that I would get to hear this theme in all of its majesty.

We breaking into the city of gold with this one 🔥🔥🗣️🗣️

After seeing a couple of the drops here... This dungeon is probably going to be the most farmed for glam out of the expansion.

Felt like I was playing Xenoblade 1 again when I got to this section. From being in Bionis into going inside Mechonis for the first time is the vibes I was getting.

Did my first run on this dungeon and won the orchestrion scroll at the end. :)

The fact that they have a special area specifically for crossing the dome called the "Crossbridge," right after the second boss is really neat.

Wow, they finally included their side of the PSO2 collab.

Everyone saying Dynasty Warrior vibes, all I can get is Shin Megami Tensei vibes from this beat

The art of this dungeon shown in the live letter had big Ra'kaznar vibes already, but i didn't expect the final boss being a reference to XI blue mages and the lv 98 gear being called Ra'kaznar :O

Imma be honest when I didn't expect this turn of events as fast as it happened and I was loving it

Absolute BANGER of a dungeon, I think I might enjoy getting this in roulettes for a while

thank you SE i can relive my Braver CAST era of PSO2

Lets not forget this theme takes off right after you RAM A CERULEUM POWERED TRAIN LOCOMOTIVE INTO THE DUNGEON TO BREAK IN.

died 2021 born 2024 welcome back the twinning

Doma Castle's tech savvy, cyberpunk obsessed little brother.

Me seeing the biker enemies and having a Ratatouille moment flashing back to a couple years ago when I was playing Xenoblade 2 and saw the bike enemies at the World Tree

OST on point. So refreshing to see a good AST too in dungeons. Gonna show this video to new ast’s who ask for help what ast’s can be like

Peak FFXIV.

This song is so good. Seeing my guy there with Wuk, Alisae, and Krile was so epic and satisfying

This song has lived rent-free in my head ever since the Job Actions Trailer, and NOW I FINALLY KNOW ITS NAME!!! Words cannot describe my gratitude! Thank you for posting this!

Got major Mega Man vibes from this one

I hit this dungeon today and not only has some fucking FIRE music, but it also gave me flashbacks of raising castrums all the way back in ARR. The aesthetic also reminds me of cyberpunk and you know I had to go back and grind for some of the gear

This aint just a dungeon theme. This... Is a contest theme. Get Ready to Participate folks. This will be a Tournament to remember!!!!!

This duty theme makes "A Long Fall" feel like a long nap.

I was rocking my air guitar all the way through this. Epic. Best track so far.

Sounds like something outta Dynasty Warriors. Great stuff.

This is Takafumi Imamura's territory right here.

Phantasy Star Online vibes are strong with this one.

These last areas of the game like Solution Nine are MAJORLY PSO inspired like it's insane how similar the gear looks to PSO2. I love that shit so much.

He cooked again

Best song in the entire expansion to me 🔥

Did anyone else notice that the setup to this dungeon felt straight out of Payday 2? It's basically a loud heist, all we needed was Vlad's crazy brother driving the train into the door.

Fun fact: Not your first time watching this

Best track in the whole expansion so far.

Thinkin one of the newer staff worked on this one. And its the same person that worked on a couple different tracks that have a similar sound/feel. Wish they'd tell us who worked on what, I'd love to know who made this!

The Twinning: Finally, a worthy opponent

You hee'd your last haw, partner.

Absolute banger. And not just the train.

Got this orchestrion roll in first run! I had an absolute blast. This song brought back memories of Mega Man X ever since I heard it in the Job actions trailer. It's not just a banger to me, it's a sentimental banger. I'm still having trouble with how to express my love for Mega Man X in-game.

Ah yes, the theme of "Y'all... We ain't in Shaaloani anymore."

I went from Cancun to getting tossed into Hyper NLA and all of a sudden im surrounded by semi-mimeosomes what an expansion

Thank you for making this available to listen to on loop while doing my coding homework

The zone theme reminded me of digital devil saga 1, so was stoked to hear DDS 2 influences in the dungeon theme.

* hears this and immediately checks Husky's channel *

This dungeon is probably my favourite, but didn't want to post gameplay for risk of spoiling given we're still in EA

Grinding the vanguard gear was easy peasy because the music was so bad ass!!!!

The intro for this dungeons is peak

Sounds like a Dynasty Warriors track lol sounds great!

Soken really stepped up his game this expansion.

loved this dungeon so much 😭😭😭

I kept thinking Esthar/Cocoon soldiers... just their solders versus a team of Laguna, Kiros, and Ward... maybe Lightning or Ellone to round it to 4.

Cleared this dungeon a few days ago now and I keep coming back, going from cowboys to cyberpunk with this banger track made this a top tier dungeon .

I honestly think this track is one of the best track of Dawntrail. Excluding Arcadion tracks

This song is so good, its criminal! The music carried me hard while I ran through it blind. Such a rush!

as an old time synth-wave music fan this dungeon was literally a wet dream for me

This is without a doubt my favorite non Title theme in FFXIV (Title themes being Answers, Footfalls, Shadowbringers etc...). Not only that I freaking love this dungeon's First and Second bosses, and it's Aesthetic. This is the dungeon I will look forward to any time I level a job from 90-100. I was SO happy for this dungeon because every other song in Dawntrail before this, while not bad at all, was just not doing it for me. But this. Oh this was the energy infusion the game, and I, needed.

"in fulgur in fire" on orchestrion

This have a Dynasty Warriors vibe and i really like it 🤩

Final Phantasy XIV: New Genesis

HE COOOOOKED

Ah the the theme of "Inner release, Sprint, /Grin on dungeon start while you run at the mobs like a madman". If you're not doing wall to wall on this one, you're not hyped enough. And that is heresy.

Sick music, sick bosses and sick glams

That lizard has a lot to answer for

Probably one of if not the most stellar dungeon introduced in god knows how long!

Was waiting for the... "R E A D Y!" like its a new Megaman X game.

I don't even play this game This song rules

I queue for Vanguard, and I don't get the Paladin armor or weapon. So I beat it and queue for vanguard again, and I still don't get the Paladin armor or weapon, so I queue for vanguard, and I don't get the Paladin armor or weapon, so I beat it and queue for vanguard again.

This is my fave dungeon and fave theme of the expansion so far.

Never realized that when I got into FFXIV, I was going to be playing ARK Genesis

Oh I have been *waiting* for this one. This track absolutely SLAPS.

This track is so sick, it feels like youre defending allies from a shadow organization-built drone in ace combat. they really killed it with dawntrails music.

Technodrome, let's kick... wait, wrong reference.

0:56 I love this part so much

This is some fucking Megaman X shit and I love it

Common Soken W

Banjo gone techno? Hell yes.

After seeing armor sets from this dungeon. I realised. I'm gonna hear this theme A LOT and I don't mind it.

I'm gonna farm this dungeon so hard for Glam lol

The ultimate quest to save the Flickies Island, XD

Probably the best dungeon music in the xpac.

/bgm 100 as soon as I entered this place

That WoL slow walk like "we bought jack yall up" in combination with this theme. Brings a tear to my eye every time

something crazy always happens in the X7 levels of epansions
