Demon Gate
Alright, this has been bugging me for ages. Why in god's name does everyone in this forum seem to have problems with this boss? I usually completely forget about him after I've taken him down and forgot all about him til I came to this forum and had people talking about how tough and mean he is. Even replaying the game not long again, I whupped his sorry ass like it was no problem so can someone please tell me why so many people have a hard time with this guy?

I don't really understand either. Possibly because you are forced to use Aeris, who may be brutally under leveled? Though by the end of the temple she shouldn't be that far behind.
Fun Fact: Demon Wall is the first boss in the game with more than 9999 HP.
This isn't the Final Fantasy IV forum. :P
You can get away with being underlevelled up until you meet Demon Wall, and if your Aeris is even weaker than your underlevelled characters, then you're going to meet trouble with Demon Wall. I guess you were levelled well
He's a breeze if you're on good levels, have a good aeris, and climhazzard or something better with Cloud.
Yeah if you're underlevelled he's a huge pain otherwise he's a piece of cake.
Yeah because most people don't use Aeris at all until they're forced to at that point. I hated the temple of the ancients because I had to drag her along. Had to grind those bees in the area before demon wall to make her suitably strong.
I'm starting to see what the problem is...
I actually did use Aerith and I still use her despite knowing her fate, her limit breaks actually offer a bit more strategy than the rest of the party. I appreciate that and basically keep her in my party cause Fury Brand is a boss killing move...

yeah, I never use her unless I have to.
It creeps me out so much that I dun even dare to select the attack command.
Look at its head, it's like a giant penis with sharp teeths. :kaocry2:
His name is Demons Gate not Demons Wall.
I had trouble with him the first time I played the game cause I was seriously underleveled on all my characters (it was after all my very first RPG) since then I have never had a problem with him.
Demon Gate got me cause he had devastating physical attacks and really harms me quickly. Now n' days I find him a breeze but I use to have trouble with Materia keeper, The dragon on the cliff to the northern cave (Shizno?) and the robot guy on the way to the submarine to get the huge materia.

If I remember correctly, Demon's Gate is much faster than most bosses up to that point and can kill a character with one hit when it uses that attack where it drops a rock on their head. xD The difficulty jump at that point in the game is skewed pretty badly. Of course, that depends on how overleveled you are like a lot of people said.
Except for the Materia Keeper, I agree with you. Especially with that Cargo Robot thingy.Originally Posted by sora_lion_heart
That's pretty much spot on all the bosses I had trouble with on my very first playthrough. Add Rapps to that as well.
.... I never considered him a boss, then again, I never considered the airship in ff9 disk 3 to be a boss either...
This post brought to you by the power of boobs. Dear lord them boobs. Amen
I never use Aeris because I dislike her character, but I'm usually leveled enough at that point that Demon Wall doesn't pose much of a challenge.
