Eden is the primary 8-player raid series introduced during the Shadowbringers expansion of Final Fantasy XIV.
The storyline follows the Warrior of Light and companions as they work to restore elemental balance to the Empty. Through the power of memories and primals, the group recreates elemental forces that shape the environment while confronting powerful manifestations tied to those elements.
The Eden raid series is divided into three raid tiers, each containing four encounters that increase in mechanical complexity and coordination requirements.
Eden represents the standard 8-player raid progression structure used throughout Final Fantasy XIV expansions.
