Asphodelos is the first raid tier of the Pandaemonium raid series introduced during the Endwalker expansion of Final Fantasy XIV.
This tier marks the beginning of the investigation into the mysterious prison known as Pandaemonium, where powerful entities are contained within ancient facilities deep beneath the surface.
As the opening chapter of the raid series, Asphodelos introduces the core encounter mechanics and design themes that define the Pandaemonium raids. Each encounter gradually increases difficulty through layered mechanics, arena hazards, and coordination challenges.
The raid tier contains four encounters, progressing from P1 through P4.
