FFXIV: Haukke Manor Guide

This Guide is for the normal mode version of Haukke Manor. I’ll write a Hard Mode version as soon as I get the dungeon cleared next week. Haukke Manor is a pretty straight forward dungeon until the final boss. There are really only a few tips needed before entering the last fight.

• Pull the Maidservants individually. This is only possible if you have someone with long enough range. An Archer/Bard or Gladiator/Paladin would be the ideal person for this.
• If using Archer/Bard, only hit the Maidservant once so you don’t pull too much initial aggro. Gladiator/Paladin can only use Provoke to pull them without linking, because Shield Lob is too risky due to lack of range.. There are only three or four spots where you need to do this anyways.
• First Boss is just a harder hitting version of the regular Maidservants.
• Go in every room in the basement, there are six of them before the second boss. You’ll likely miss the tiny key for the second floor optional door if you skip a room.
• Second Boss is two monsters, kill the Jester first. (It’s a flying imp.) If you’re all ranged DPS the tank can tank both mobs. If you have melee DPS the tank only tanks the skeleton.

Spoiler: She isn’t ugly like the story says she is.

The final boss is like the Maidservants as well. The big thing that’s different with her is she will use Void Fire randomly on a target. Void Fire is very dangerous, I recommend not getting hit by it. At 75% and 50% the lamps in the four corners will light up. You need to turn off the lamps because they do room wide AoE.

At 50% two bombs will also spawn. You can kill them once the lamps are turned off, or you can let the tank hold them. At 25% two Maidservants and an Eyeball spawn. With geared DPS you can burn the boss, otherwise focus the adds down. You will likely have to kill the adds first, most people who run Haukke Manor are just there for the quest credit.

Once you clear the adds you can kill the boss. It is a really easy dungeon as long as you know what to expect. The first time I did it, it took three tries to down the final boss.

Again, if you are looking for the Hard Mode version of Haukke Manor, this is not the guide you were looking for.  For more, check out my list of FFXIV guides, it will link you to any guides I’ve finished writing.

This is not the guide you’re looking for.
