Raids (レイド, Reido?) were special types of campaigns in free-to-play versions of Final Fantasy Dimensions II. Players were given the opportunity to fight against powerful bosses. This feature was first introduced on March 24, 2016.
Overview
Players could participate in a raid battlefield through the entrance located at the bottom-right corner of the game menu.
The event emphasized the value of players teaming up to defeat bosses with high HP. When facing raid bosses, players were given twelve turns to deal as much damage as possible. The higher the damage, the more the points the player would receive at the end. If the boss manages to kill the party while the twelve turn limit is active, the battle will end. In addition, should the player fail to defeat a raid boss within that limit, other players will automatically assist until the boss is down. In addition, the turns Mootie use were also counted towards the twelve turn limit. As a bonus, summoning signets doesn't use up Raid turns. All bosses increase their own level by 1 and their max lv is unknown.
Upon defeat, each player that participated in the kill would be rewarded with Raid weapons and accessories, Babil points, etc. When the indicated level of the boss increases by one, all the stats and max HP of the bosses will rise significantly. Super effective skills deal 200% damage, while same elemental skills deal 75% damage.
At the end of each battle, the system calculated the three bonuses together and adds them up:
- Participating Bonus
- This bonus was added every battle; different bosses provide different amount of points.
- Damage Bonus
- The higher the damage the player deal, the more points he/she obtained at the end of the round.
- Finishing Bonus
- Normally 0, only changes if the current boss or his defensive "barrier" is defeated.
Level Reaching Bonus
When the player reached a certain level together with their teammates, they were awarded with Babil points, Raid Recovery Vouchers or space-time stones, although the latter drop rate was far lower. Players could receive one thousand to ten thousand babil points or ten to hundred space-time stones. The bonuses would differ through level.

Mini bosses
Starting from the 3rd Raid event, a hidden boss called "Cactuar" was introduced. This boss is rare and weak against every element and attack. On the 6th Raid event, Golbez was introduced, which replaced Cactuar. The mechanics between Golbez and Cactuar are basically the same, but Golbez casts Barrier Shift once at the start of the battle.
Raid AP
Different AP is used for Raid events, it had a maximum of five slots, and refilled once every fifteen minutes. When their Raid AP ran out, players would have to wait for the refill in order to challenge the event again. However, players had the option to recover all their Raid AP via a recovery voucher in order to continue playing.
Team Raid bonuses
Players could spend their Raid SP points to enhance various skills. There were six different elemental tables. By spending Raid SP points on the corresponding table, players would learn elemental attack boosts and resistances based on that element. Players could also learn useful skills such as "Attack down resistance", "Instant death resistance", "Earth Attack Power +16%", "Max Attack/Magic +10%". etc. However, these extra bonuses were only usable in Raid events.
Rewards
After defeating a monster, the player earned Raid points. Bonus points were given if the player manages to kill the boss within the set amount of turns. The more points the player accumulate, the more rewards they obtain. At the end of the event, all the players were ranked and given rewards accordingly. Players received different ranks of the boss signet depending on how well they scored in the event (6★ - 8★). Players were also rewarded with cash shop vouchers, space-time stones, Babil points, raid weapons and accessories, and master crystals. In addition, rewards could include certain event components to rank up the summon's associated with the current event.
