Godly Bosses

[IpwnUthisMuch|------|]

Hey this is kind of a poll but where you voice and explain your opinions.

Which boss do you think was the toughest and/or coolest...

FFVII- Ruby Weapon
FFVII- Emerald Weapon
FFVIII- Omega Weapon
FFIX- Ozma
FFX- Penance
FFX- Nemesis

[mega_tonberry]

FFVll-emerald weapon
I didn't know what KOTR was when I first fought him. I still have nightmares.:whimper:

[IpwnUthisMuch|------|]

lol nightmares...

[Venom]

Penance.

[IpwnUthisMuch|------|]

There is a trick to tearing up emerald...

Get your chars HP to 7777

equip comet on one char and quadra magic linked

equip mime on other 2

Use lucky 7s to take a quarter of his hp then use comet with quadramagic and mime it and if hes not dead finish him with KOTR

ive never tried it but ive heard it works to be honest i havent played FF7 for a long time

[mega_tonberry]

Thats the exact way I did it.:eek:

[IpwnUthisMuch|------|]

lol cool how long it take?

[rubah]

Welcome to the General FF forum.

I've never bothered to beat the last two weapons in ff7, or ozma in ff9. and I can't battle penance.

[Tempest]

I thought Nemesis and Omega Weapon were easy to beat. Cool monster though. Ozma, however, is a different story. He's pretty tough.

[Slade]

The coolest was Omega Weapon from VIII. The hardest was probably Emerald Weapon. I killed Ruby the cheap way. Ozma was pretty simple. I can't believe it took me so long to kill him. I havn't tried Penance or Nemesis yet.

[SoulTaker*]

Hmmm, Emerald is hard if you dont have the right gear, all it really takes to smash him is 2 mime materia and 1 level 2 KOTR summon.
I hit him with 8 demi's, 1 omnislash, and 6 KOTR's in succession and he was down in 10 minutes.

I would put the toughest bosses fight between Emerald and Omega from VIII, although I havent played the 16 bit generation of games i hear those bosses were bitchin.

Isnt it weird that Sin is hyped as this unbeatable god through all of X and its so easy to take care of him.

All of the bosses are on roughly the same scale to the heroes. The traditional formula for a superboss has been to have its HP at roughly one hundred times the damage cap. In VII and VIII, the maximum pain the heroes could dish out in one hit is 9,999. Rounding off to ten thousand, one can multiply this by one hundred and come out with one million, the approximate HP totals of Ruby, Emerald, and Omega Weapon. In X, Penance has around 10,000,000 HP, but the heroes can now do 100,000 damage per hit. The best way to beat a Weapon or similar enemy has always been to rely on multi-hit attacks, such as KOTR, miming powerful magic, or limit breaks like Omnislash and Catastrophe, allowing one to knock off hundreds of thousands in one go. I particularly like using the 7777 trick against Emerald; it's too cheap to resist.

The superbosses in the SNES games are not only extremely limited, the ones that are there, Omega and Atma, are absolute weaksauce compared to the Weapons of the 3D games. This is due to technological limitations; the SNES was a 16-bit system, and because of this, the maximum amount of HP any enemy could have was 65,536. Kefka had 62,500, and Atma had somewhere around 60,000, whereas in FFVII, Diamond Weapon had 50,000 without even being a superboss. A 32-bit system allows enemies to have as much as 4,294,967,296 HP. It would, however, be wise to note that game mechanics rarely if ever have any bearing when making actual comparisons of power. It's also good to remember that not all endgame optional bosses fit the definition of a superboss.

Ok, Atma I can understand but Omega? Next to Ozma, he is largely considered the hardest optional bosses in the series...

[a nirvana fan]

FFVII - Ruby & Emerald Weapons
FFVIII - Ultima Weapon
FFIX - Bah, it's too easy to find a hard boss
FFX - Penance & Nemasis.

im surprised nobody's mentioned him yet...:cat: :choc2:

okay...the pic isnt showing up, but it was of warmech.

emerald weapon is easy if you trap him in a pattern. kill two of his jewels (the hp attacking ones) and equip no materia. he cant hurt you with his jewels now and aire tam storm is useless. this leaves him with two attacks. one cannot kill you as it is designed to take a % of your current hp, and the other only targets a single character which a smart person will revive. He still has a counter attack but if your party are in the back row, its hardly even a threat. Basically he cant kill you

and for omega in ffv, he strongly relies on his counter attacks and can counter 4 times after every hit he recieves. It's very simple to protect against all his other attacks, but his counter attacks are slighly more difficult and they can seriously destroy a party in seconds. this means an offensive strategy will get you killed. Hide three party members and have just one attack and he will receive all of omega's counter attacks. leaving three of you unharmed. again you cant be killed. (just cast return if you are hit with encircle)

Omega from ffviii cannot kill you if one character is equiped with triple and simply defends throughout the entire battle. when terra break hits, just cast life on your two dead characters and continue. when megido flame hits, just cast curaga on all three characters and continue defending. once again you cannot be killed


basically, if you cant be killed, you cant lose

[Dreddz]

Sephiroth in FFVII, I love that battle, if its the hardest boss , has to be Ozma....

[Setzer Gabianni]

The first 3.

I have nightmares about going underwater now in FFVII..

Ozma was just as bad. The others I have not met/cannot remember them.

[Rocket Edge]

basically, if you cant be killed, you cant lose

question? how the hell does triple protect you from terra break?

another thing... ive played all the final fantasies apart from 3 and 4, and omega from viii was in my opinion the hardest and coolest for that matter.;)

[Suikojowy]

Errr I actually found Emerald and Ruby weapon ridiculously easy, I was quite disappointed.

Ozma was a challenge, but it doesn't come close to Penance.

[Shin Gouken]

Rocket Edge]question? how the hell does triple protect you from terra break?


sorry i think i may not have worded it very well. Triple is for reviving after terra break and curing after megido flame.

thats what i tried posting...ah well.:p

[Soul of Tarsis]

Warmech’s status as a super-boss is debatable.

[Alexander]

IMO Warmech is a hidden superboss. I mean, you can play various times without even knowing that he exists. When you unintentionally find him... start praying xD

IMO the hardest is Ozma (because I haven't fought Penance), followed by FFV Omega, and FFV Shinryu and Warmech tie for the third place.

[Az Lionheart]

pennence...



*hides*

[Ultima Shadow]

Garland in FF1. He knocked me down.

[xtreme112]

I'd say the Dark Aeons in FFX, IS THERE ACTUALLY ANY REAL WAY OF BEATING THEM!?!?!?!?!?!

[DJZen]

Cheese Weapon.

[Nightmare X]

Warmech.


FF7's weapons were PATHETIC.

[Soul of Tarsis]

I'd say the Dark Aeons in FFX, IS THERE ACTUALLY ANY REAL WAY OF BEATING THEM!?!?!?!?!?!

Yes

[Alexander]

Cheese Weapon.

Oh, but Cheese Weapon dies so easily! Just summon Aeris for 99 hits each doing 99999 damage! <3333

lol aeris is a pussy. just stab her and she dies :D

[Rengori]

Because it took me so friggin' long (coupla months) to decipher the Blitz instructions, Vargas.

ShiningAngel: Most people DO in fact die when stabbed.

PEOPLE. Not MONSTERS. If that were true, Rosa would be good for something after all.

well after all this thread IS about monsters :rolleyes2

[Dell]

emerald eady cause demi can be used, ruby is a challenge but I beat it on the first trial of my ready version of party. omega is hard, ozma depend on luck and penance is so-so to me.

where can i found cheese weapon?

[Rengori]

You can find him in the Marshland after flooding Midgar by flushing the Shinra Toilet 100,000,000,000 times.

>>> Thats right..

[ljkkjlcm9]

I seem to remember there being some really hard bosses in FFIII, like when you're mini for a dungeon or something. FFIII also had some of the hardest regular enemies, namely the ones that kept multiplying unless attacked with a dark weapon, so annoying.

most people die when you stab a 9 foot long sword through their mid sections :D
