Thread: Who was the hardest fiend?

    Who was the hardest fiend?

    So who, in your opinion was the hardest fiend? In FFO, the only fiend I found was tough was Marlith. The rest, and even Chaos, were ALL pathetic.

    Every oppenent in 1 was easy. So I can't say which was hardest. I'll just go for Tiament since he took longer to die.

    The first battle with Marilith was the only boss fight wherein anyone in my party was ever knocked down, so yeah.

    *SPOILERS*


    Kary/Malirith was never too tough for me because I always did Ice Cave, Castle of Ordeals and the class change before going to the Volcano. Once I beat all Fiends before fighting Kary/Malirith, and I finally killed her on level 46. I think Lich is the hardest of them in Origins. He's got a lot of powerful spells, and Nuke/Flare really hurts you in the rematch in ToF past. In NES, the 2nd encounter with Kraken was the hardest. He hits for hundreds of damage, which can instantly kill a mage character.

    Tiamat's always been the hardest. Karaken and Lich have easy to exploit weaknesses and I usually do Kary last so I'm over leveled for her. Thus Tiamat is the only one that I had trouble with(I didn't know about the Bane or whatever trick).

    Lich. I mean he was the technically the second boss and they aren't suppose to be hard and I was only at Lvl. 12 going through the cave so when I got to him I wasn't exactly top notch.

    Umm Lich? Maybe...I never had much trouble with any friends, I sort of had some trouble with the second versions. But I had it easy because I just fire3ed Lich to death, already class changed and higher level then I should for Kary, and Kraken wasn't much of a challenge. As for Tiamat, well Break/Bane+Tiamat=One round death.

    So in short, Astros=hardest guy I fought...annoying rub attack grrrr.

    I had no problem beating them, but GETTING to Marilith was very hard!! Stupid, stupid lava!!!

    I think Kraken, he has a really high defense. As for Tiamat Bane/Break and he's dead not really that hard.

    Tiamat II.

    He can devastate even a level 50 party with a few well chosen spells.
