POLL : Was Sephiroth harder in Kingdom Hearts 1 or 2?

[Tavrobel]

It's clear that you didn't find Seph hard at all in KHI.

But he's much more difficult to PWN, because you basically have to fight him with either a full and upgraded set of armor and accessories, or you have to get loads of Defense Pluses. Unless your reflexes are godly, and even then, Seph has some kind of homing teleport. The Arena's bigger too.

The one that corncracker wrote for the KHII frontsite is very good, though.

If I say I'm going to PWN him, I AM going to PWN him.

PWN as in taking no dammage at all at the hardest difficulty setting and without being at a godly high level, just like I did in KH1.

[Tavrobel]

Good Luck.

If you make one, I'll change my sig back to Rydia.

Although, if such a case, I think EVERYONE would win.

To me, it felt like every boss was harder in KH than KHII.

[*~Angel Wing~*]

I thought they were about the same difficulty, except KH2 Sephiroth was a little more challenging. But that was good cuz the rest of the bosses in that game were kinda easy.

Pt. 2 definetly i mean God i missed that first attack and i still lived through 10 of his life bars but pt.1 i beat the hell out of him

'Cept Xaldin, I agree with that.

I thought that the Sephiroth in Kingdom Hearts (I) was more difficult only because it took me much more than several tries to defeat him. Of course, when I got the hang of it, I fought Sephiroth (I) enough times to just gain the 18,000 EXP for leveling up. Eventually, defeating the first Sephiroth took me no more than 3 or 5 minutes each time. I beat the Sephiroth in Kingdom Hearts II on my first try and I only used up 2 Elixers.

Kingdom Hearts (I): Sephiroth Boss (Platinum Match)

1. The main reason why I believe this boss is harder is because it is more difficult to attack him straight forward, you have to wait a lot for an opening.
2. Sephiroth (I) has this attack which really is fustrating: "Sin Harvest." Sometimes you attack him before he casts the spell, sometimes you don't. If you don't, then its time for that Elixer! Superglide away and use it before Sephiroth attacks you.
3. This boss is also invincible for the first 20 or so hits Sora unleashes on Sephiroth. (Actually, it might be because the makers couldn't think of another color to add another HP bar?)

Kingdom Hearts II: Sephiroth Boss (Dark Depths)

1. As long as you have certain abilities on Sora, (like Second Chance, Once More, Defender, Beserk Charge, Horizontal Slash, **Trinity Limit, and all those SQUARE button abilities.) that includes the ones in the Strategy Guide, you should be fine. Also place Elixers in all of Sora's Item Slots AND IN YOUR MAGIC SHORTCUT! I forgot to do that and I almost died as a result.
2. At the start of battle, like everyone else says, press TRIANGLE to block. Expect this Reaction Command to appear a lot. Sephiroth (II) leaves himself as open as possible so TAKE ADVANTAGE OF IT. Berserk Charge with Ultima Weapon is awesome. After some combos, Trinity Limit brings Sephiroth's (II) HP down a bar and a half, depending on how long the limit is.
3. Yeah, and watch out for the pillar of flame thing. Unlike Sephiroth (I), the second Sephiroth's pillar of flame sucks Sora in, making it difficult to avoid.
4. When Sephiroth (II) rises in the air, Glide up to him at attack. His meteor attack is a pain to manuever so attack Sephiroth (II) before he performs it.

When you defeat Sephiroth, talk to Cloud and choose to show him where Sephiroth is. Then go back to the Dark Depths and approach Sephiroth. After an AWESOME scene, Sora gets the best Keyblade ever: Fenrir!

Yeah, I know I put some strategies in there but I couldn't resist. And there's more in Sephiroth (II) because I just fought him yesterday. I was at Level 90 when I fought the second Sephiroth and around Level 85 fighting the first Sephiroth.

There is no debate about it. You can also find a gazillion guides about KHI's Seph, and he's far too predictable, and not only that, you could challenge him whenever you wanted to, provided you beat the Titans. Plus, holding your blade in the opposite hand cramps your fighting style.

In KHII, he's much less predictable and his attacks do far more damage and are faster. His teleport is also more annoying. He's also got a massive amount of HP, and holds his blade as he should: in his left hand.

Ya know, I never noticed until you mentioned it, Tavrobel. Hm, interesting. Now I remember. Sephiroth (FFVII) held his sword in his left hand. I'm left handed too! coooool. (actually, I'm ambidextrous. but I write a little better with the left hand.)

Whew! That took a while!

**Trinity Limit is the most important ablility and basically essential for defeating Sephiroth (II).

No, should I see it? [I though Sephiroth (I) was difficult when I first fought him, but now I eat him like ice cream and cake]

And let's not forget the single most awesome piece of armor ever: Crystal Crown. + to Attack, Magic, HP, MP, AP, and you put three or four on? Pwned.

So, where do you get this Crystal Crown?

[Demon Lancer]

Um... how si this even a contest KH1 Sephy = Baby
KH2 Sephy = Pwnt my rear to shreads ((I'm only level 55 attempting it not the 75 thats veryone recommends and threatens you to wait until you are at least 75, Not using second chanse or once more either.)

I can beat KH1 Sephiroth with a Kingdom key and only healy a few times (depending if I get hit by that damn halo thing >_< sin harvest I hate you.) I've taken off 1 and a half health bars of KH2 sephiroth XD horrible I know, but he's just to fast and for some reason It wont let me use ariel doge when he hits me in the air...

Part 1, you don't have Trinity Limit in 1(well you do, but it sucks in part 1).
