You, my friend, have been introduced to the genius that is Ben Potter. May I direct you to "Vidiots" or "Triple Jump" here on UA-cam. Young Ben Potter and Young Peter have both moved on to those ventures and you'll love them if you found that even mildly amusing.
Hardest bosses for BB, DS3 and DS1. BloodBorne: Cursed and Defiled Watchdog of the old lords. (Chalice boss) DS3: Slave knight Gael. (Darkeater Midir is too easy to cheese) DS1: Manus, father of the abyss.
What's the difference between a "boss" and a "Super Boss" you ask? Well, when a boss kills your character you get frustrated, but when a "Super Boss" kills your character, it's like they shoved their foot through the screen and right into your balls with enough force to make even Chuck Norris cry.
DS3 is nowhere near a "superboss" due to the fact that people can do a Naked No Weapons Level 1 run and have little difficulties with it. They also can't turn 2 degrees and make you go flying across the entire map!
Nah dude, only got me on my first play through. I almost never do the main quest anymore until I'm so high leveled that I can kill Alduin before he gets off the ground
Shoutout to Julian for taking that monstrous hit to the chest, just to illustrate a simple point to us. Good to see my fellow Julians are bringing glory to the name
Adamantoise took me over an hour yesterday. I'm just glad that I thought to get the Founder King's Sigil first before starting that fight. Helped greatly in the chipping away at it's health since none of the summons could be bothered to come and assist me.
Gotta say, this seems like a list that is tailor-made for the two FF7 superbosses: Emerald Weapon and Ruby Weapon. Emerald Weapon: No matter how good you are, no matter the level of your characters or their materia, Emerald can and will use "Air Tam Storm". It instantly kills your entire party. Without cheating, literally the only way to beat him is to find, combine, and use two materia; one that makes a party member cast a spell before they die, paired with a materia that brings the party back to life. These are not easy to get. When you think about it, this boss does actually kinda require you to cheat to win. Reviving your whole party when you should have died is a cheat, in my opinion. It's just a cheat that is built in. Ruby Weapon: Right off the bat, he removes all but one member of your party, forcing you into a 1v1 fight in a game that is NOT set up for that. He's got insane defense, is immune to some of the best magic, and using the game's best summon causes him to counter-attack with a spell that could kill you. Then, you need to figure out (because it's confusing, the first time) that your real target is not him, but his fingers. They attack from behind, and take a massive bite out of your resources like HP and MP. Even if you do everything correctly, it's still a fight that takes a frustratingly long time, and a lot of luck.
Air Ram Storm deals 1111 damage for each materia equipped on that character. So make sure you've got less materia than you have health. Ruby weapon, start the fight with 2 dead characters. W-Summon Hades to paralyze Ruby. Then cast knights of the round linked with HP absorb, mine 2-3 times, recast Hades when paralyze wears off. Repeat until dead.
Sad how literally 1/6th of the video goes by before the video actually fucking starts. I know it's for ad revenue and this isn't the only channel that does this but Jesus...
Eh, nameless king was a cake walk. Sure he can one shot you but his attacks are so telegraphed. Midir is pretty fuckin. Bad but it’s only bad because of his monstrous health bar. Same thing with Gael tbh, it just gets so tedious and you start getting greedy and that gets the best of you.
not sure C'thun counts as a Optional Superboss since he is the last and main boss of the Temple of Ahn'Qiraj raid. Yeah he was a Superboss pre-nerf but if you wanted to finish the raid C'thun needed to fought
And you forgot to mention after you wiped, you had to spend 15 minutes running through the entire dungeon just to get back to C'thun, in order to wipe trying to defeat him again. In order to beat him, (after the first patch) you had to wipe a good 30-45 times, at least, in order for the raid to learn the fight. So a good 8-10 hours just in running back to the boss from the start of the dungeon.
Cthun is easily the hardest boss on this list by a landslide, also after wiping you would have to reclear the 2minute respawning trash Gauntlet event that had tons of beatles,
None of WoW's raid bosses should be on here except for Ouro (who technically didn't die until the day after C'thun died and is the only truly "optional" boss with such a feat). Most of them are not optional whatsoever. Yogg-0, 25 Heroic Ragnaros, Mythic Archimonde, C'thun, Mythic Blackhand, all of Naxx 40, etc. are mandatory bosses to complete the raid. Ouro was not.
@@Phantomjr-xz3fq yeah lol. I have beat her on gmgow ng+ without rage, talisman and slo mo enchantment and all valkyries in less than 2 weeks. Even i was fighting most valks for first time. Gow is pretty easy as compared to what i have experienced in dark souls
@@Phantomjr-xz3fq pretty hard for beginners imo. Due the combat not being so fluid and versatile as it was in God of war. If the combat works in that game as in God of war then it would become 10x easier.
NEKRO it's a top ten list *shrugs* there's always gonna be 1-9 misses generally. Also maybe at a point in time it was but the final boss goes by what expansion you got and overall it don't matter wow was shit and obsolete after everquest came out let alone the other mmo's
You can beat Adamantoise in 20 minutes or so if you go in prepared with the right broken combination of weapons, but good god if you don't, that's a grind....
Oh god I remember trying to play Neopets as a kid with Internet Explorer and just the absolute worst connection speed in existence. I stopped playing it very quickly.
Borderlands 2: The first time I waltzed into terramorphous the invincible boss fight at level 30 (because im a dumbass) thinking I was the shit until I got absolutely destroyed. Even when I went back for round 2 at level 50 I still got my ass handed to me by those horrid tenticles.
There's actually a science to that boss fight, and the only 2 things I can say are; Conference call and Bee Shield. Along with a handy glitch to keep the tentacles from totally penetrating your sweet ass like all the Boy Bandits wish they could. You just kinda have to hide in some rocks and it's hard to get it right without practice.
all 4 go down easy :) FF7 weapons if you have mime + knightsofround + w summon and final attack + phoenix (and ruby is EASY, just put cloud solo with knights + hp absorb / master summon + mp absorb and w summon and a fire absorb stat FF8 Omega weapon ( don't remember having probs with him) FF9 Ozma just do the 10 friendly mobs and Ozma is a cake :) The only 2 fights in all FF games i remember was breaking me a sweat was the last hunt of your clan, Yiazmat (FF12) and (maybe Penance FFX)
dollarsign Mexican bro I was looking for someone to comment that Baal had like infinite health I transmigrated from max lvl 100 times before I could beat him but I played that game soo much on psp i was able to one shot him with an ultimate from Laharl
Tyrant Overlord Baal from Disgaea Dimension 2, at his base form, was already harder then max power Baals from other games. He requires a really ridiculous amount of grinding, and perfect strategy in a fight lasting over 30 mins (even compared to other Disgaea games). At full power, you're looking at nearly double the grinding, and an hour long fight.
That boss battle sucked. He kept killing all my guys but I had Mysterion on my team so I couldn't lose but I couldn't win either because he kept becoming a ghost and couldn't attack. Didn't realise you needed to unlock every single battle fart to even stand a chance
I used to play all characters to the point of overpowering them so I never really struggle fighting him. But that's not saying he wasn't a bitch to avoid early on, he was my nightmare growing up 😂😂😂
Yiazmat From FF12 I think was the first time a FF game when "too far" with a super boss. They decided to nerf him in the Zodiac version, but even then, he's probably the most wildly powerful superboss ever made in a Final Fantasy game.
I actually found Flemeth relatively easy, I think you just needed to make sure you had a good balanced team and keep them separated to stop her doing massive damage to multiple characters
Rioben 2 yea 8:30 minutes when I fought him first run through just to find out he can he one of his house bars by half within mere seconds and is also done consecutively
Ff15 adamantoise, use the death spell from the ring of luci. After about 7 minutes and half his health later he'll automatically die and look really freaking weird. Also with high enough magic you may be able to one hit him with the ultimate magic the second you start fighting him. Sorry for the spoilers and taking away the challenge but there you go.
Ares Ah I had no idea. I beat the game and didn't touch it for awhile until I found out about traveling back in time to fight the adamantoise. So I pretty much stopped playing early January of this year then turned it on again in May after the patches.
god damn it, I wish knew about this when I tried to kill it. I thought they were joking when they said it would take 72 hours to kill the adamantiose, I found out the hard way when trying to solo that god damn fucking mountain, 49 hours non stop I tried for, then fucking boom, knocked me out of the area, everything resets, haven't played since.
World of Warcraft: C'thun, pre-patch Metal Gear Rising: Armstrong Super Mario RPG: Culex FFVII: Emerald and Ruby Weapon Dark Souls: Ornstein and Smough Dark Souls 3: Nameless King Ecco the Dolphin: Vortex Queen Mike Tyson Edit: Some of the Hardest Bosses of All Time for me, personally. And yes, some are not optional, I'm aware.
Flemeth is the easiest optional boss. Above her is the dragon of the cult of andraste, and the most powerful optional boss is gaxkang. But gaxkang is totally worth it since killing him allows you to loot the best sword in the original dragon age game. And killing the cult high dragon allows you to craft dragon bone armor that provides the best fire protection that you need to beat the archdemon
Gaxkang and the dragon of the cult of andraste are sure more difficult, but you don't get to them in general in the game until much later when you are a much higher rank and more powerful. Flemeth is available to you very early on and it just becomes impossible without more health/damage. I usually wait at least 5 more levels before attempting to go at her from when she is available. That being said, the Harvester in the DLC Golemns of Amgarrak on hardcore or nightmare difficulty was the hardest.
Yeah that Dragon at the mountain iirc? Fuck that thing. Flemeth was a breeze in comparison for my rogue..the worst super boss i went against was in ff 12 though
Vanitas remnant or whatever it's called? I thought the mysterious figure was FAR more difficult than him, as I couldn't beat him. With enough persistence, I was able to defeat that Vanitas form on proud but I could barely land a scratch on mysterious figure.
If I had to guess, its cause there are set-ups that make them both a walk in the park, Emerald in about 45 seconds and Ruby, you can kill Ruby without even touching the controller. That being said, first time you walk into battle with them, their going mess you up (More so if you try to fight Emerald with all slots filled with materia)
Favorite final fantasy of all time, but those aren't even the toughest super bosses in the final fantasy series. Not even close. They're quite tame compared to most.
@ me and my friend figured out a trick where if you kill both party members before battling Ruby he won't dog you like he normally does. Made life easier that's for sure.
Yeah, it kicked my ass after the first couple of tries then it occurred to me "The Ring of Lucii" after twenty or so Ether potions the fight just ends and a withered husk is all that remains. Still I didn't think that was a legit win because of how much of a cake walk that fight suddenly becomes so I went back at level 99 and gave Adamantiose a "Proper" burial.
I figured out how to deal with that turd burglar. Final attack phoenix. use nights of the round on W-summon, with mp-absorb, and hp-absorb, and you're good. the command that copies, (been a very long time, i cant remember everything, sorry), is an obvious start. Also, on ruby, if you start with two characters dead, he doesnt whirl-sand them away. Just let ruby kill you when ruby has a tiny bit of hp left, so final attack pheoenix brings them all back to life, and then a last hit with W-nights of the round, and the 150k ap will happily master virtually everything. I also know about golden chocobo's etc battle arena blah... feel free to mail for info.
Pretty much, i mean Dark Valefor, Dark Ifrit, and Dark Ixion is easy when you've played it long enough, but they are still in fact Super Bosses, as well as the calm land monsters, they are super bosses too, since they are so much stronger compared to earlier. Anyways, let's move forward.. Nemesis is not neccesarily unforgiving, but Dark Magus Sisters, Dark Anima and Penance THEY are unforgiving (i believe that you can exploit penance at least)
iv beaten every final fantasy Boss in that game. exept for 1 boss 1 boss who will straight up annoy the hell out of you with annoying effects and has a unknown ??? on him and cannot be read by Libra so the lvl is all so unknown and that would be the dinisty King at the end. you fight him and he absorbs parts of a freaking ship right after kicking his ass the first few times he comes back to fight you 1 more time and just straight up creams. your hole team like garbage
My brothers and I spent weeks, literally fcking weeks, playing that guy. We fought him again and again and finally fcking FINALLY we beat him We were in love with the KS series growing up lol
Thanks for featuring Seiken Densetsu 3 on this list!! Not enough lists on super hard baddies include the Black Rabite. Hopefully the Seiken Densetsu collection that's coming out in Japan on the Switch gets localized....
Tyler Lockhart Hey, I did not know that! Thank you :) I've been settling on a reproduction I got off Etsy (as well as relying on my Japanese which is kinda rusty), but to play it on the Switch with better graphics...ooph. I hope I can. Thank you so much!
Maidros Fëanoron Ah, yes, LoM was quite glorious... But the two are separate games; SD3 came out on the SNES only in Japan (for a lot of reasons that imo are bullshit but anyway...). It has humongous replay value and is overall one of the best JRPGs out there, period. Fun fact: I'm almost certain that there are statues of some of the characters from SD3 in the basement of I think the main castle/schoolhouse/whateverIforget in Geo in LoM.
'Rodin, The Infinite One' from Bayonetta 2 is also worth mentioning. You first need to acquire 10 million halos (you can buy everything else in the shop almost ten times with that amount) to even be able to challenge him. He has 5 healthbars (something which only the final boss also has) and during his first phase he already is the strongest and fastest enemy in the game by far. Most of his attacks give you less than 40 frames to react and deal relatively high damage and he can trap you in combos that take down a third of a maximally large health bar. What makes this realy hard however, is that you can almost never take a breather. Unless you can stagger him or trigger Witch Time, he will never leave more than a second between his attacks and just block out of your stronger combos. You have to constantly be on edge. But it gets even worse. Bring him down to 3 and a half health bars, and he transforms into his second phase. He is now unstaggerable unless you hit him during Witch Time, he can fly across the arena within 2 seconds, many of his attacks are even faster and stronger, he'll never stop throwing out attacks and leaves a second at most between them if you're lucky, and he gets a new attack that is insanely fast, can reach you from anywhere and instantly brings you down to 1 hp. And don't get me started on Witch Trials V.
How about Terramorphous the Invincible from Borderlands 2? Terramorphous is a humungous serpent with dozens of tentacles that is by no means an easy foe to beat. The only way you can reach high enough level to face him is to beat the game twice; once in Normal Mode, and then again in True Vault Hunter Mode. Even then, you're still not ready to face him if unless you have a full party of 4 players. Even at max level, you wouldn't have a prayer of beating him if you were by yourself (unless you had the right gun and shield combo that wound up getting patched anyway...)
Late to the comment trail but, Voracidous the Invincible was the most difficult raid/optional boss in Borderlands 2. In my opinion. Followed closely by Vermivorous the Invincible. Killing Terramorphous was easy with 2 characters imo. Gunzerker w/ Grog Nozzle and DP Unkempt Harold w/ roughrider shield or Assassin w/ Bee Shield and almost any legendary gun. Assassin w/ Bore and you bore him when his tentacles are up. Gunzerker you just hold down the triggers and don't let him knock you off the cliff.
Yeah she's tough but she doesn't use any new strategies from the other Valks. As long as you avoid or interrupt the blinding attacks she's not super hard. Not gonna lie and say it didn't take me 20+ tries to beat her, but many people have done it in 2 minutes, no hit, on Give Me God of War.
The Valkyries before her is preparation training for her because she uses every move from each of them. She is tough if you do it blind but if you recognize her moves and use the same tactic you used to triumph over the previous Valkyries then she ain't too bad to handle.
She's tough but once you beat her the first time, she's actually not that bad.....HOWEVER!! when you face her on Gameplus mode HOLY FKIN SHT if you haven't mastered realm shifting, You literally are totally fk'd with no introduction and no Lubricant!!! They've added and upgraded her moves n her healthbar is on more steriods than baseball in the 90's!!
yah I think he was one of the easier bosses in the game, sure he did tons of damage and had a ton of hp but all his moved were predictable. Once you learn his move set you can kill him while being extremely under lvled without much difficulty.
Not to mention that you can pretty much exploit Strike Raid's invincibility frames to bypass some of more difficult Sephiroth's attacks. I didn't fight bosses such as Lingering Will (lack of Final Mix and newer PlayStations), since I've only played original KH1 and 2 and GBA version of Chain of Memories, but I found KH2 version of Sephiroth (which is quite often ignored for some reason) and Phantom in KH1 harder than KH1 Sephiroth.
I agree that Mysterous figure is in my opinion the hardest KH boss ever, but Lingering Will is pretty easy once you learn how to counter his attacks (like all bosses I guess) but ingering Will's patterns weren't that difficult.
Sephiroth is hard but there are a lot tougher bosses in the KH series, such as the Lingering Will, if one wants to beat him they need near perfection, or the ability to see the future.
WhatCulture done messed up, Gaxkang The Unbound is the strongest optional superboss in Dragon Age Origins, stronger than flemeth, the high dragon and the archdemon, he will mess you up without the best gear and right set up for your party. Now witness Gaxkang!
Yiazmat from FF12 should easily be a contender for this list. He's technically not that hard (skill-wise) to wittle down, but here's the thing: IT HAS OVER 50 MILLION HP. That in a game where literally NO OTHER BOSS has over 10 million (except for Omega Mk. XII in the International Version, but even so...). It has Stone Breath, White Breath, physical attacks that have a 5% chance of inflicting Instant Death coupled with a high combo rate, a pentagram attack that instakills your characters, a tornado attack that deals massive damage and leaves you bleeding afterwards, and -- here's the best part -- it goes to Level 146 when it's down to about 10 million HP! At that point, everything goes out the window, and you're fighting desperately to survive and continue wittling down this massive dragon's HP when it suddenly puts Reflectga on your party. Now this won't be so bad... if you don't accidentally cast Renew on a character with Reflect and erase ALL YOUR PROGRESS ON THIS BOSS IN ONE SHOT!!! Quite a few players have fallen victim to that spell for the very reason mentioned here. Imagine working the boss down to 10% HP, only to accidentally bounce a Renew spell to the boss and give him back ALL THE H.P. THAT HE LOST! ...I'm gonna let you insert your reaction to this right here.
cameraREDeye Remember: You can leave the arena to save and replenish any time you like and his HP will remain the same. It's just that by doing so, you raise his base level by 1 each time (Growing Threat is dispelled on the player leaving the arena, so he recasts it as first priority as soon as you're back, thus it upgrades him to level 148, 150, 152... Leave and return enough times and you'll be facing a Level 200 dragon!) and if you don't get out of the arena fast enough he's going to have cast Regen on himself before you change map locations, so the time spent travelling to and from the save point will have regained most (or if you're slow, all) of his health - That Regen spell still ticks even if you're not present. Dispel and RUN!! Plus when he's in Critical HP, he lowers the damage cap from 9999 to 6999, effectively cutting your max damage output by a third; he's only weak to Dark element, absorbs Holy, and nullifies everything else; as his HP lowers his combos become "more likely" until either his Deathtouch weapon mod will get you or his damage output will (try surviving a 14-hit combo even without the 5% instakill chance each strike!); he has an Instant Death spell that hits 100% without Shell and still 50% with; he's basically equipped with Safety and Ribbon; and the arena being littered with traps that also reset each time you leave and return. Plus of course he doesn't just use the Reflectga trick once, he likes to toss it out at random. Only very careful Gambit ordering to cast Dispel (or otherwise use a Potion or other harmless junk) on any character with Reflect as higher priority than the Renew autocast will avoid this trap... But you're only going to know he does it once he's already done it. Depending on character levels, gear, and luck, you could be at him for 10 hours plus, only to get a TPK due to some very unlucky Deathtouch and Death spell strikes on every character brought in to try and run away to recover. Personal experience here with precisely that.
Evening Glimps and Gloomps! It's your live action big eared and big bearded boy here with another slice of mental meringue for you! Hope you enjoy it but please as always, let me know what you thought below and whether I took that chop well! Then come follow us/me on Twitter (COUGH RETR0J) and then we'll have a fair old time. Until the next time we meet my loves. licks and dribbles, Jules xoxox
Retr0J it looked like young joe hendry mistimed it slightly and caught you with the side of his hand instead of the Palm, if that is true that would really fucking hurt
Having played WoW, my experience fighting dragons made Flemeth a breeze as I knew not to stand behind her or risk the getting hit by the tail and do not stand in front or be hit by the breath. This was my first time fighting her too, her transformation did take me by surprise.
Any boss you don't have to beat to finish the game is an optional boss. Emerald and Ruby Weapon are optional bosses, and their difficulty makes them super bosses. Emerald weapon may have had his own intro however, in CGI, but killing him is totally optional.
Back in like 2000 I invented a way to kill Ruby and only get hit twice, the first time on purpose. Your (mostly optional) party: Cloud, Barrett, Tifa Step 1: kill off Barrett and Tifa on some common mobs in the area Step 2: HP/MP switch materia on Cloud, as well as Final Attack-Phoenix and W-Summon Step 3: KOTR and Hades on Cloud, Mime on all 3 Step 4: Entering battle with 2 people dead forces Ruby to bury his claws in the sand Step 5: Open with KOTR, Ruby counters with Ultima, killing Cloud and triggering the Final Attack-Phoenix, and giving you a full party with Ruby's claws already buried Step 6: W-Summon in this specific order Hades and KOTR. Hades inflicts Ruby with Stop Step 7: Cloud, Barrett, and Tifa will spam Mime over and over, each time recasting Stop on Hades and giving you a KOTR free of an Ultima counterattack. If you do this right, you'll only get hit maybe once as your action bars fill for the first time for your revived party, but Ruby will only hit one target for about 7-9k so it's not lethal.
Guy talks about two hours fighting a turtle and totally glimpses over the one boss in the same franchise that consistently gives players a full day long headache to this day. and soon in HD.
I agree 100%. Yiazmat was just awful. Yes, takes forever, but he can also kill any max level in 2 hits normally. Even with 1 person back healing and reviving at max level, still took me 3ish hours. I 100% agree, no Yiazmat is kinda BS.
The Borderlands 2 one that everyone used to farm but it's basically impossible to do it at any high level. You need to be like max level to actually have any hope.
I'm going to assume you mean Terramorphous? I know there are other raid bosses, but it's the only one that's level 50 when you try to fight it on normal (when you'd be level 28-32). Nah. Cause it's not really meant to be fought on normal. You're supposed to beat TVHM, come back to normal, kill it, feel like a badass, then realize you were playing on easy mode and go back to TVHM and do it again to see if your strategy still works. Or just do as Warex said and play as Sal. Empty Ahab + Pimpernel + money shot and a few other items = no more raid boss.
Digimon Story Cyber Sleuth: Hackers Memory. The ImperialDramon Revolt optional domination sidequest is like 3 superbosses at once. You get time to pick 3 of your best out of your party 12 in the pause menu before to launch this sidequest. But your only additional human partners are weak. ImperialDramon DM, EmperorGreymon and MagnaGarurumon. These 3 are are all separate individiuals with no backup, but its very hard to hurt them. Its also a repeatable quest but aside from credits there is no achievement trophy or substantial benefits.
Don't forget Red in Pokémon Soulsilver/Heartgold or Gold/Silver. You can only fight him after beating the Elite Four twice & climbing to the top of Mt. Silver. His Pikachu is the highest lvl in-game Pokémon you'll see (besides your own) & he his entire team is lvl 75 or higher. He has Charizard, Blastoise, Venasaur, Lapras, Pikachu & Snorlax. His Snorlax pretty much tanks everything thrown at it, with his Lapras doing pretty much the same, even when hit by Electric type moves. Funnily enough, his Pikachu (lvl 88) is the easiest to beat. Each of his starters have their ultimate moves. And it's hailing the entire time...
DrakeMarvell it was a lot harder back then because you couldn't really re challenge trainers you already beaten except when they called you on the in game phone thing which happened randomly so the only way to really train was the elite four
Hahaha, yeah that was a pretty great fight. The Pikachu almost made me crap myself until I remember that Pikachu has crap in his stats pants. Which is funny, cause as a kid, I remember getting really mad at anyone who said Pikachu was terrible. "You're just not using him correctly!" *checks Pikachu's level and notices that it's 10 levels higher than everything else in the party* Hey younger self, you think that might be why?
wherethetatosat for real I honestly did that fight maybe 100 times I still remember the exact moment I beat it and with what Pokémon I finally got luckily enough to get him down to his last 2 Pokémon I had my lvl 74 charizard and just ko'd his snorlax and red last Pokémon was vensaur and I got him in 4 flamethrower with only like 40-50hp left myself and freaked the fuck out when I beat it in the back of our family mini van and got yelled for kicking the front passenger seat out of excitement
How could you not mention Absolute Virtue from FFXI. it went two years undefeated before a glitch was exploited to finally kill him. Not only that, but he randomly popped after a Jailor of Love fight. The items for which you needed to spawn it took months to farm.
yiazmat isn't hard though. If you know what you're doing he literally CAN'T kill your entire party. He's tough to fight in one sitting, but you can literally fight him at your leisure. As long as you make sure he's not using regen when you leave the area, his health does not reset if you run back and save the game, you could even turn the game off, and his health will be the same as when you left.
*Yamcha* on any DBZ game. Now that's a super boss that literally kicks your ass, gets out of the console, jumps back into the box an back on the shelf.
Ba'al from the first Disgaea.Just... Ba'al.First, he is level 4000, in a game you can finish at level 80. The characters actualy comment on this in-game.Second, he has the stats to go with it. When he hits you, the game can't write the amount of damage he does to you because it got too many numbers (it uses the japanese kanji for 10.000 to reduce the size, and he does something like 99999 * 10000 to you. And you are lucky if your life bar even reach the sixth digit)Third, he doesn't even need to act, he will counter your puny attacks. After dodging them. Not like you would even scratch him anyway.Seriously, you need to put in tens of hours to level your characters enough only to get a dent in his lifebar.And the real kicker? If you kill him, you can challenge him again in prinny form, where he is just as ridiculous. And level 6000.
I cant imagine how long you would spend in the item world if you tired to fight pringer x then. I mean in Disgaea 2, i have Plenair, Laharl and Marona all level 9999 on their 10th reincarnation and he still can kill them easily if im not careful .
omega weapon from final fantasy 8.. 1.5 million hp, multiple devastating attacks, one that drops parties hp to 1, level 5 death that instakills any party member who's level is multiple of 5, and terra star that hits the party for 4300 damage multiple times as well as other various attacks.
I honestly don't think anyone even mentioned this because they probably started and like under 30 seconds finished off every time ... so no one really looked at it as a true super boss because it's near impossible... but it is possible, just not probable. hardly at all
I definitely did not expect it when ff8 took the difficulty to the stratosphere with that boss, especially since the bosses prior to that one were easy, like the omega weapon in ff5 but mandatory and harder.
In Hollow Knight, the considered "true final boss" is something called The Radiance, but it is completely optional whether or not you want to fight him, so I'm not sure if he counts. One thing I am for certain about is that fighting this boss is the equivalent to your waiter handing you a plate full of glass shards and stating "enjoy" after throwing a cup of hot coffee in your face.
"The Sleeper" The dragon at the bottom of Sleeper's Tomb in Everquest. It only spawned once EVER per server and once it got done wiping the floor with whatever raid party had dared disturbed its slumber, it would LEAVE the zone and rampage all over the continent of Velious, killing every player in every zone there for the next half hour or thereabouts. Only one server EVER managed to be the Sleeper when they spawned it, and that was because it was the add on late server that was started until five or six expansions after The Scars of Velious, so they were able to take TWO top tier guilds that were geared up with goodies from 5 expansions (not including Ykesha or LDoN, so actually 7 expansions) later and with 25 extra levels (cap raised 5 levels every other expansion) plus the enhancement of Alternative Advancement Point abilities (introduced in the PoP era) to add to their fighting potency and STILL it was kinda close. The Sleeper was designed as an unbeatable event in the Velious era, and it was only the years of having to raise the bar with each expansion to give the players something worth their while to play for that eventually made it possible for the unbeatable to be beaten. The irony of course was that since the Sleeper wasn't designed to be killed, there were no item drops on the corpse and either the zone or the whole server crashed upon dying. Shit was still so god damn cash. Anyways, EQ forever, mother fuckers. This Dwarf Cleric is eternally LFG, or sitting at second torch trying to sell a full set of bronze armor that dropped while I was killing gobbies in the basement of High Hold Keep for enough gold to buy my spell components, man.
Actually they took the servers down before he died the first time, they did not crash. The second time he dropped a cloth cap. Also it was not only 2 guilds, they just put the event together... basically anyone who wanted to and could get there joined to help.
You know what would have saved your friend 2 & 1/2 hours of the Adamantoise boss fight? A Titan Summon. That's it. Also, try the optional bosses in Kingdom Hearts: Birth By Sleep Final Mix. *Those* make Sephiroth look like a mere sparring match.
Yes some of those matches are fairly difficult, but in terms of raw power and health, Sephiroth wins out for most. If you need proof just check which gives speed runners the most difficulty.
what? i had to nerf myself to have even a remote challenge on kh2 while on kh1 i had to level to max and die a million times before i even got rid of his invisible health bar.
Dont think C'thun counts as an 'optional' boss I mean I know you dont have to fight him but he is the equivalent of a story boss in wow, and the end game boss of a raid (i believe the final vanilla one) so yeah you don't HAVE to fight him, but its kind of the goal
The diffrence is Yog was mathematically killable with close to perfect dps/not getting hit with avoiable abilities etc, C'thun was mathematically impossible to beat even with perfect dps and positioning. Same with with pre nerf Vashj.
So deatheater midir? the one boss that everyone suggests you fight alone due to it already having a shit ton of health and his attacks becoming even unpredictable when more people join. man i love that dam boss.
IF your going to allow C'thun as a optional boss then the Hardest Most insane boss EVER has to be Final Fantasy 11 Absolute Virtue. Untill they raised the level cap past 75. AV had never been beat without a glitch/exploit. Even after they raised the level cap many groups still glitched to have a chance to win. Absolute Virtue was out for 2-3 years or more before anyone finally beat this boss. The game Devs even made a video of them killing AV to prove to the community it was possible. The community had accepted that AV was unkillable at this time. That's why the devs made the video. Not long after this FFXI got bad press for a group of players spending 18 hours trying to kill the next hardest boss in FFXI. After which all bosses created after that point were nerfed and given time limits even some preexisting bosses got time limits because of enrage timers and others were toned down. Including the boss that took the group 18 hours till they gave up and accepted the loss.
Speaking as someone who beat AV at Lv75, after they patched out the glitch, it's possible, but we would use about 24+ people, rapidly switching in and out of the alliance for buffs before engauging with all of our 2hr abilities up and doing as much damage as we could because AV uses his 2hr abilities in a certain order; The principle being that you need to kill him before he gets to certain abilities. While AV got the renown, as it was -the- boss to beat while FFXI was at it's peak of popularity, the optional boss of the next expansion, Pandemonium Warden, was easily much more bullshit.
No boss is optional, every boss must be defeated!

What's the difference between a "boss" and a "Super Boss" you ask? Well, when a boss kills your character you get frustrated, but when a "Super Boss" kills your character, it's like they shoved their foot through the screen and right into your balls with enough force to make even Chuck Norris cry.

LightningBlaze100 LMAO
LightningBlaze100 no a superboss is dark souls 3
DS3 is nowhere near a "superboss" due to the fact that people can do a Naked No Weapons Level 1 run and have little difficulties with it. They also can't turn 2 degrees and make you go flying across the entire map!

@@cometomeifrit I know, I did beat it. The point is that a giant turtle is far stronger than the final boss of the game.
@@cometomeifrit it strikes me as a very high defense thing
Adamantoise took me over an hour yesterday. I'm just glad that I thought to get the Founder King's Sigil first before starting that fight. Helped greatly in the chipping away at it's health since none of the summons could be bothered to come and assist me.
Gotta say, this seems like a list that is tailor-made for the two FF7 superbosses: Emerald Weapon and Ruby Weapon.
Emerald Weapon: No matter how good you are, no matter the level of your characters or their materia, Emerald can and will use "Air Tam Storm". It instantly kills your entire party. Without cheating, literally the only way to beat him is to find, combine, and use two materia; one that makes a party member cast a spell before they die, paired with a materia that brings the party back to life. These are not easy to get. When you think about it, this boss does actually kinda require you to cheat to win. Reviving your whole party when you should have died is a cheat, in my opinion. It's just a cheat that is built in.
Ruby Weapon: Right off the bat, he removes all but one member of your party, forcing you into a 1v1 fight in a game that is NOT set up for that. He's got insane defense, is immune to some of the best magic, and using the game's best summon causes him to counter-attack with a spell that could kill you. Then, you need to figure out (because it's confusing, the first time) that your real target is not him, but his fingers. They attack from behind, and take a massive bite out of your resources like HP and MP. Even if you do everything correctly, it's still a fight that takes a frustratingly long time, and a lot of luck.
Air Ram Storm deals 1111 damage for each materia equipped on that character. So make sure you've got less materia than you have health.
Ruby weapon, start the fight with 2 dead characters. W-Summon Hades to paralyze Ruby. Then cast knights of the round linked with HP absorb, mine 2-3 times, recast Hades when paralyze wears off.
Repeat until dead.

Dark souls 3: Darkeater Midir and the Nameless king
but nameless king is not optional or is it?
it's optional.. it's not required to beat the game
Eh, nameless king was a cake walk. Sure he can one shot you but his attacks are so telegraphed. Midir is pretty fuckin. Bad but it’s only bad because of his monstrous health bar. Same thing with Gael tbh, it just gets so tedious and you start getting greedy and that gets the best of you.
Sleeper Thoee true if you play it cautiously taking your time on attack when your 100% certain your good then cakewalks
Okay no matter how much we are gud at the game lets be honest NOBODY HERE defeated midir on his first try
not sure C'thun counts as a Optional Superboss since he is the last and main boss of the Temple of Ahn'Qiraj raid. Yeah he was a Superboss pre-nerf but if you wanted to finish the raid C'thun needed to fought
And you forgot to mention after you wiped, you had to spend 15 minutes running through the entire dungeon just to get back to C'thun, in order to wipe trying to defeat him again. In order to beat him, (after the first patch) you had to wipe a good 30-45 times, at least, in order for the raid to learn the fight. So a good 8-10 hours just in running back to the boss from the start of the dungeon.
You forgot to add that trash respawns too lmfao
Cthun is easily the hardest boss on this list by a landslide, also after wiping you would have to reclear the 2minute respawning trash Gauntlet event that had tons of beatles,
Probably would have been better to put yogg +0 on here since he was the hardest beatable boss and +0 is optional
None of WoW's raid bosses should be on here except for Ouro (who technically didn't die until the day after C'thun died and is the only truly "optional" boss with such a feat). Most of them are not optional whatsoever. Yogg-0, 25 Heroic Ragnaros, Mythic Archimonde, C'thun, Mythic Blackhand, all of Naxx 40, etc. are mandatory bosses to complete the raid. Ouro was not.
I love seeing the whatculture cast onscreen. You guys are awesome.

@@Phantomjr-xz3fq pretty hard for beginners imo. Due the combat not being so fluid and versatile as it was in God of war. If the combat works in that game as in God of war then it would become 10x easier.
Who was about to leave when the video was actually naming actual bosses
Matin Dzhumanov me
Were you also blown away like I was that they actually named OPTIONAL bosses? I just skipped the bs at the start
FitzChivalryFarseer2 except C'thun isn't an optional boss with the Ahn'Qiraj raid, he's the final boss.
NEKRO it's a top ten list *shrugs* there's always gonna be 1-9 misses generally. Also maybe at a point in time it was but the final boss goes by what expansion you got and overall it don't matter wow was shit and obsolete after everquest came out let alone the other mmo's
NEKR0 C'thun is an optional boss because there are 2 types of players in WoW PvE and PvP he is optional because you don't have to do the raid
So happy to see Golden Sun on that list. Dullahan destroyed my party times and times again back then.
You can beat Adamantoise in 20 minutes or so if you go in prepared with the right broken combination of weapons, but good god if you don't, that's a grind....
I went with ring of Lucci there and used Alterna without knowing if It could work . It was funny to watch the results.
lmao that boss had to extend to an hour for me
I only need 3mins if u dont beilieve me its ok

The ShadowThief same, I was really surprised when he wasn't on the list
you haven't seen shit if you didn't fight vorac yet
I was waiting for him
There's actually a science to that boss fight, and the only 2 things I can say are; Conference call and Bee Shield. Along with a handy glitch to keep the tentacles from totally penetrating your sweet ass like all the Boy Bandits wish they could. You just kinda have to hide in some rocks and it's hard to get it right without practice.
You need to look up Dexidious The Invincible

FF7 - Ruby & Emerald
FF8 - Omega Weapon
FF9 - Ozma
penance ffx
Ozma was relatively easy, but ruby emerald and omega were nightmares.
FF is honestly cheating for this list as most of the series included at least one such super boss worthy of nightmares.
fuck Ozma. He was a prick that deserves to burn in the deepest pits of whatever hell is in FF9.
all 4 go down easy :)
FF7 weapons if you have mime + knightsofround + w summon and final attack + phoenix
(and ruby is EASY, just put cloud solo with knights + hp absorb / master summon + mp absorb and w summon and a fire absorb stat
FF8 Omega weapon ( don't remember having probs with him)
FF9 Ozma just do the 10 friendly mobs and Ozma is a cake :)
The only 2 fights in all FF games i remember was breaking me a sweat was the last hunt of your clan, Yiazmat (FF12) and (maybe Penance FFX)
Tyrant overlord Baal from the disgaea series
dollarsign Mexican bro I was looking for someone to comment that Baal had like infinite health I transmigrated from max lvl 100 times before I could beat him but I played that game soo much on psp i was able to one shot him with an ultimate from Laharl
Tyrant Overlord Baal from Disgaea Dimension 2, at his base form, was already harder then max power Baals from other games. He requires a really ridiculous amount of grinding, and perfect strategy in a fight lasting over 30 mins (even compared to other Disgaea games).
At full power, you're looking at nearly double the grinding, and an hour long fight.
+Marquise Smoke
Your stats max out after 19 transmigrations at max level.
South Park fractured but whole. Morgan Freeman
That boss battle sucked. He kept killing all my guys but I had Mysterion on my team so I couldn't lose but I couldn't win either because he kept becoming a ghost and couldn't attack. Didn't realise you needed to unlock every single battle fart to even stand a chance
Should've had Kaarstag, from skyrim in there, that bastard is ridiculously tough
Gabe Johnson that is what I was thinking
Yep
you can easily beat him with a were bear
Wasn't that hard. All you needed was Fire and a follower to distract that creature. Ebony Warrior was a nightmare.
Try to take Ebony Warrior with mods like Skyrim Redone.
It's.....it's....LUBU!!! This son of a bitchs' name strikes real fear in the battlefield.
Oh my God lu bu Dynasty Warriors 4 he even had a ass raping technique
in the battle of he fei castle its impossible to beat him xD
Lu Bu was my nightmare as a kid :'(
Spent all my time on 5hp running form him tryna land lucky musou attacks and then gapping it
I used to play all characters to the point of overpowering them so I never really struggle fighting him. But that's not saying he wasn't a bitch to avoid early on, he was my nightmare growing up 😂😂😂
Yiazmat From FF12 I think was the first time a FF game when "too far" with a super boss.
They decided to nerf him in the Zodiac version, but even then, he's probably the most wildly powerful superboss ever made in a Final Fantasy game.
i like op bosses
I actually found Flemeth relatively easy, I think you just needed to make sure you had a good balanced team and keep them separated to stop her doing massive damage to multiple characters
Seconded.
Celtic mythology knowledge came in handy against Flameth. Don't think you can sneak the name 'Morrigan' past me, laddy.
I expected Yiazmat to be somewhere on here-
Yeah, i was expecting it, 2 hours compared to the 6 it takes to kill yiazmat is nothing.
Rioben 2 yea 8:30 minutes when I fought him first run through just to find out he can he one of his house bars by half within mere seconds and is also done consecutively
And just think, in a few months we'll be able to relive all that glory.
Ff15 adamantoise, use the death spell from the ring of luci. After about 7 minutes and half his health later he'll automatically die and look really freaking weird. Also with high enough magic you may be able to one hit him with the ultimate magic the second you start fighting him. Sorry for the spoilers and taking away the challenge but there you go.
Cory Walck before, you weren't able to use the Ring of Lucii on Adamantoise until the recent patches that allowed you to one shot the huge tortoise.
Ares Ah I had no idea. I beat the game and didn't touch it for awhile until I found out about traveling back in time to fight the adamantoise. So I pretty much stopped playing early January of this year then turned it on again in May after the patches.
Cory Walck I tried that but it didn't work
god damn it, I wish knew about this when I tried to kill it. I thought they were joking when they said it would take 72 hours to kill the adamantiose, I found out the hard way when trying to solo that god damn fucking mountain, 49 hours non stop I tried for, then fucking boom, knocked me out of the area, everything resets, haven't played since.
TFA Shadowwalker You must have been doing something wrong then because I know they say it takes 72 hours but you can beat him within 3-4 maybe less

Nameless king isn't even hard!
Armstrong isn't even optional
@@98953812 Neither is Vortex Queen or Mike Tyson, but they deserve to be mentioned. But no, technically they aren't optional.
Flemeth is the easiest optional boss. Above her is the dragon of the cult of andraste, and the most powerful optional boss is gaxkang. But gaxkang is totally worth it since killing him allows you to loot the best sword in the original dragon age game. And killing the cult high dragon allows you to craft dragon bone armor that provides the best fire protection that you need to beat the archdemon
I always had a harder time with Flemoth cause I'm a Mage main and with the High Dragon there's lots of room to spread out.
Gaxkang and the dragon of the cult of andraste are sure more difficult, but you don't get to them in general in the game until much later when you are a much higher rank and more powerful. Flemeth is available to you very early on and it just becomes impossible without more health/damage. I usually wait at least 5 more levels before attempting to go at her from when she is available. That being said, the Harvester in the DLC Golemns of Amgarrak on hardcore or nightmare difficulty was the hardest.
Yeah that Dragon at the mountain iirc? Fuck that thing. Flemeth was a breeze in comparison for my rogue..the worst super boss i went against was in ff 12 though
But the Archdemon doesn't do fire damage... It's more 'dark' damage than anything.
Fun fact - Gaxkang is named after kangax!
FFXII - Yiazmat or Zodiark. Just for the hardship to be able to face them.
Zodiark is easy, but Yiazmat, curse that aids
I haven't played Zodiac Job System, but I've heard it said that The Five Judge Magisters are also pretty insane.
I think yiazmat took me 6-7 hours to kill. what a douchebag
it took me 3 hrs to kill him with maxed out equipment -_-
Yiazmat for sure. 3 hours doing that wash, rinse, repeat combat... takes all the fun and drop kicks it out the window.
You forgot the extra boss from kingdom hearts 2, Terra. Sephiroth is a cakewalk compared to him
is this possible on ps2?
Also that black and white verson of vanitas in Birth By Sleep....that dude is hard
Well the list is mostly just games he has played before, plus he can't fill the list with just kh lol
Terra was on the Japanese ps2 final mix version.
Vanitas remnant or whatever it's called? I thought the mysterious figure was FAR more difficult than him, as I couldn't beat him. With enough persistence, I was able to defeat that Vanitas form on proud but I could barely land a scratch on mysterious figure.
No Ruby Weapon or Emerald weapon from FF7, dissapointing
Daniel Dominic i still have nightmares of them
If I had to guess, its cause there are set-ups that make them both a walk in the park, Emerald in about 45 seconds and Ruby, you can kill Ruby without even touching the controller.
That being said, first time you walk into battle with them, their going mess you up (More so if you try to fight Emerald with all slots filled with materia)
Favorite final fantasy of all time, but those aren't even the toughest super bosses in the final fantasy series. Not even close. They're quite tame compared to most.
Exactly. These two enemies where ridiculous. Especially Emerald.
@ me and my friend figured out a trick where if you kill both party members before battling Ruby he won't dog you like he normally does. Made life easier that's for sure.
That Adamantoise review maybe the funniest damn thing I've seen in over a year
Vamroc Sylar then I would really wonder what sense of humor you have. I had to skip through the intro and that part as well.
Oh, my sense of humor runs pretty black
its funny cuz you can one shot this thing with the lucis ring now after the update. Now its a joke lol
Yeah, it kicked my ass after the first couple of tries then it occurred to me "The Ring of Lucii" after twenty or so Ether potions the fight just ends and a withered husk is all that remains. Still I didn't think that was a legit win because of how much of a cake walk that fight suddenly becomes so I went back at level 99 and gave Adamantiose a "Proper" burial.
Its funny because its SOOO TRUEEE!!!!!
Emerald Weapon from FFVII due to the fact that one quite easilly can accidentally run into her/him and getting one-shotted.
And when you try again prepared....you still get one-shotted!
Aire Tam Storm can go fuck itself.
Came here to say Emerald and Ruby weapons. Not to mention Ultimate Weapon...
I figured out how to deal with that turd burglar. Final attack phoenix. use nights of the round on W-summon, with mp-absorb, and hp-absorb, and you're good. the command that copies, (been a very long time, i cant remember everything, sorry), is an obvious start. Also, on ruby, if you start with two characters dead, he doesnt whirl-sand them away. Just let ruby kill you when ruby has a tiny bit of hp left, so final attack pheoenix brings them all back to life, and then a last hit with W-nights of the round, and the 150k ap will happily master virtually everything. I also know about golden chocobo's etc battle arena blah... feel free to mail for info.
final attack phoenix.
Crawmerax the Invincible from Borderlands 1
Scott Martindell yeah without glitches

The final lighthouse boss!! I was stuck on it for ages
every optional boss in FFX
Pretty much, i mean Dark Valefor, Dark Ifrit, and Dark Ixion is easy when you've played it long enough, but they are still in fact Super Bosses, as well as the calm land monsters, they are super bosses too, since they are so much stronger compared to earlier.
Anyways, let's move forward.. Nemesis is not neccesarily unforgiving, but Dark Magus Sisters, Dark Anima and Penance THEY are unforgiving (i believe that you can exploit penance at least)
Pretty sure I've never beat an optional boss in any FF game past 6
I definitely agree with this. FFX had a ton and so many of them would just destroy your team so easily. Fun times.
iv beaten every final fantasy Boss in that game. exept for 1 boss 1 boss who will straight up annoy the hell out of you with annoying effects and has a unknown ??? on him and cannot be read by Libra so the lvl is all so unknown and that would be the dinisty King at the end. you fight him and he absorbs parts of a freaking ship right after kicking his ass the first few times he comes back to fight you 1 more time and just straight up creams. your hole team like garbage

Maidros Fëanoron Ah, yes, LoM was quite glorious... But the two are separate games; SD3 came out on the SNES only in Japan (for a lot of reasons that imo are bullshit but anyway...). It has humongous replay value and is overall one of the best JRPGs out there, period.

I"m amazed I've seen anyone else who has played SD3. Memorable SNES moments. Happy to see Black Rabite made this list
'Rodin, The Infinite One' from Bayonetta 2 is also worth mentioning. You first need to acquire 10 million halos (you can buy everything else in the shop almost ten times with that amount) to even be able to challenge him. He has 5 healthbars (something which only the final boss also has) and during his first phase he already is the strongest and fastest enemy in the game by far. Most of his attacks give you less than 40 frames to react and deal relatively high damage and he can trap you in combos that take down a third of a maximally large health bar.
What makes this realy hard however, is that you can almost never take a breather. Unless you can stagger him or trigger Witch Time, he will never leave more than a second between his attacks and just block out of your stronger combos. You have to constantly be on edge.
But it gets even worse. Bring him down to 3 and a half health bars, and he transforms into his second phase. He is now unstaggerable unless you hit him during Witch Time, he can fly across the arena within 2 seconds, many of his attacks are even faster and stronger, he'll never stop throwing out attacks and leaves a second at most between them if you're lucky, and he gets a new attack that is insanely fast, can reach you from anywhere and instantly brings you down to 1 hp.
And don't get me started on Witch Trials V.
How about Terramorphous the Invincible from Borderlands 2?
Terramorphous is a humungous serpent with dozens of tentacles that is by no means an easy foe to beat. The only way you can reach high enough level to face him is to beat the game twice; once in Normal Mode, and then again in True Vault Hunter Mode. Even then, you're still not ready to face him if unless you have a full party of 4 players. Even at max level, you wouldn't have a prayer of beating him if you were by yourself (unless you had the right gun and shield combo that wound up getting patched anyway...)
Cross Entertainment Terramorphis isnt close to the hardest boss in borderlands lol
Crawmerax was harder.
Borderlands one crawmerax was ridiculous
Late to the comment trail but, Voracidous the Invincible was the most difficult raid/optional boss in Borderlands 2. In my opinion. Followed closely by Vermivorous the Invincible. Killing Terramorphous was easy with 2 characters imo. Gunzerker w/ Grog Nozzle and DP Unkempt Harold w/ roughrider shield or Assassin w/ Bee Shield and almost any legendary gun. Assassin w/ Bore and you bore him when his tentacles are up. Gunzerker you just hold down the triggers and don't let him knock you off the cliff.
Cross Entertainment lmao you must be trash at Borderlands. I solo Terra with my zero daily
God of War 4 - Sigrun
Eh
Yeah she's tough but she doesn't use any new strategies from the other Valks. As long as you avoid or interrupt the blinding attacks she's not super hard. Not gonna lie and say it didn't take me 20+ tries to beat her, but many people have done it in 2 minutes, no hit, on Give Me God of War.
I spent 8 hours on that bitch
The Valkyries before her is preparation training for her because she uses every move from each of them. She is tough if you do it blind but if you recognize her moves and use the same tactic you used to triumph over the previous Valkyries then she ain't too bad to handle.
She's tough but once you beat her the first time, she's actually not that bad.....HOWEVER!! when you face her on Gameplus mode HOLY FKIN SHT if you haven't mastered realm shifting, You literally are totally fk'd with no introduction and no Lubricant!!! They've added and upgraded her moves n her healthbar is on more steriods than baseball in the 90's!!
Sephiroth? Really? Mysterious figure and Lingering will are 10x harder
yah I think he was one of the easier bosses in the game, sure he did tons of damage and had a ton of hp but all his moved were predictable. Once you learn his move set you can kill him while being extremely under lvled without much difficulty.
Not to mention that you can pretty much exploit Strike Raid's invincibility frames to bypass some of more difficult Sephiroth's attacks.
I didn't fight bosses such as Lingering Will (lack of Final Mix and newer PlayStations), since I've only played original KH1 and 2 and GBA version of Chain of Memories, but I found KH2 version of Sephiroth (which is quite often ignored for some reason) and Phantom in KH1 harder than KH1 Sephiroth.
I agree that Mysterous figure is in my opinion the hardest KH boss ever, but Lingering Will is pretty easy once you learn how to counter his attacks (like all bosses I guess) but ingering Will's patterns weren't that difficult.
Mysterious figure is only hard because the team that made BBS is shit at making games and made him extremely broken.
the first thing i thought when i saw this video was "sepiroth better be in it"
The Adamantoise can be beaten in less than 5 mins. I did it using the ring of Lucii
#1: "That's no ordinary rabbit! That's the most foul, cruel, bad-tempered rodent you ever laid eyes on!"
I was able to beat KH1 Sephiroth, it took a ton of grinding but I did and I am Super proud of myself
really to beat him all you need was a lot of elixirs and good timing on that item button
That may be all you need but that doesn't make him easy by any means.
oh definitely. by far one of the hardest I've faced in a game.
only one worse was ozma strictly for that Damn meteor 1-hit kill at the battle start
Sephiroth is hard but there are a lot tougher bosses in the KH series, such as the Lingering Will, if one wants to beat him they need near perfection, or the ability to see the future.
i think the toughest kh boss i fought was the one object agrabah in the desert....can't remember his name lol
WhatCulture done messed up, Gaxkang The Unbound is the strongest optional superboss in Dragon Age Origins, stronger than flemeth, the high dragon and the archdemon, he will mess you up without the best gear and right set up for your party. Now witness Gaxkang!
Yiazmat from FF12 should easily be a contender for this list.
He's technically not that hard (skill-wise) to wittle down, but here's the thing: IT HAS OVER 50 MILLION HP. That in a game where literally NO OTHER BOSS has over 10 million (except for Omega Mk. XII in the International Version, but even so...). It has Stone Breath, White Breath, physical attacks that have a 5% chance of inflicting Instant Death coupled with a high combo rate, a pentagram attack that instakills your characters, a tornado attack that deals massive damage and leaves you bleeding afterwards, and -- here's the best part -- it goes to Level 146 when it's down to about 10 million HP!
At that point, everything goes out the window, and you're fighting desperately to survive and continue wittling down this massive dragon's HP when it suddenly puts Reflectga on your party. Now this won't be so bad... if you don't accidentally cast Renew on a character with Reflect and erase ALL YOUR PROGRESS ON THIS BOSS IN ONE SHOT!!! Quite a few players have fallen victim to that spell for the very reason mentioned here. Imagine working the boss down to 10% HP, only to accidentally bounce a Renew spell to the boss and give him back ALL THE H.P. THAT HE LOST!
...I'm gonna let you insert your reaction to this right here.
cameraREDeye Remember: You can leave the arena to save and replenish any time you like and his HP will remain the same. It's just that by doing so, you raise his base level by 1 each time (Growing Threat is dispelled on the player leaving the arena, so he recasts it as first priority as soon as you're back, thus it upgrades him to level 148, 150, 152... Leave and return enough times and you'll be facing a Level 200 dragon!) and if you don't get out of the arena fast enough he's going to have cast Regen on himself before you change map locations, so the time spent travelling to and from the save point will have regained most (or if you're slow, all) of his health - That Regen spell still ticks even if you're not present. Dispel and RUN!! Plus when he's in Critical HP, he lowers the damage cap from 9999 to 6999, effectively cutting your max damage output by a third; he's only weak to Dark element, absorbs Holy, and nullifies everything else; as his HP lowers his combos become "more likely" until either his Deathtouch weapon mod will get you or his damage output will (try surviving a 14-hit combo even without the 5% instakill chance each strike!); he has an Instant Death spell that hits 100% without Shell and still 50% with; he's basically equipped with Safety and Ribbon; and the arena being littered with traps that also reset each time you leave and return. Plus of course he doesn't just use the Reflectga trick once, he likes to toss it out at random. Only very careful Gambit ordering to cast Dispel (or otherwise use a Potion or other harmless junk) on any character with Reflect as higher priority than the Renew autocast will avoid this trap... But you're only going to know he does it once he's already done it. Depending on character levels, gear, and luck, you could be at him for 10 hours plus, only to get a TPK due to some very unlucky Deathtouch and Death spell strikes on every character brought in to try and run away to recover. Personal experience here with precisely that.
Terramorphous from borderlands 2. You have to beat the game twice to have a chance
Zane Bible once actually
cham chan lvl 30 player vs lcl 50 boss? nope
Sal (mic drop)
Zane Bible it's really not that hard to do with the right gear
Terra is easy, try Vorac
I swear to god if Darkeater Midir isn't on here...
Evening Glimps and Gloomps!
It's your live action big eared and big bearded boy here with another slice of mental meringue for you! Hope you enjoy it but please as always, let me know what you thought below and whether I took that chop well!
Then come follow us/me on Twitter (COUGH RETR0J) and then we'll have a fair old time.
Until the next time we meet my loves.
licks and dribbles,
Jules xoxox
Can I buy your beanie?
Retr0J Did Ben defeat that tortoise in the end at least?
Retr0J took the chop well, thought the "super boss" would've been Simon and not Joe Lol!! Peter seems like a sub boss..
Fair play to you for taking that chop man, Joe looked like he held nothing back. Respect.
Retr0J it looked like young joe hendry mistimed it slightly and caught you with the side of his hand instead of the Palm, if that is true that would really fucking hurt
Having played WoW, my experience fighting dragons made Flemeth a breeze as I knew not to stand behind her or risk the getting hit by the tail and do not stand in front or be hit by the breath. This was my first time fighting her too, her transformation did take me by surprise.
What about Emerald and Ruby weapon from Final Fantasy 7?!
They are part of the main story, they are not optional bosses....
no they're not goldenalex
the only main story weapon is daimond
Nope is ultimate weapon
Any boss you don't have to beat to finish the game is an optional boss. Emerald and Ruby Weapon are optional bosses, and their difficulty makes them super bosses. Emerald weapon may have had his own intro however, in CGI, but killing him is totally optional.
Back in like 2000 I invented a way to kill Ruby and only get hit twice, the first time on purpose.
Your (mostly optional) party: Cloud, Barrett, Tifa
Step 1: kill off Barrett and Tifa on some common mobs in the area
Step 2: HP/MP switch materia on Cloud, as well as Final Attack-Phoenix and W-Summon
Step 3: KOTR and Hades on Cloud, Mime on all 3
Step 4: Entering battle with 2 people dead forces Ruby to bury his claws in the sand
Step 5: Open with KOTR, Ruby counters with Ultima, killing Cloud and triggering the Final Attack-Phoenix, and giving you a full party with Ruby's claws already buried
Step 6: W-Summon in this specific order Hades and KOTR. Hades inflicts Ruby with Stop
Step 7: Cloud, Barrett, and Tifa will spam Mime over and over, each time recasting Stop on Hades and giving you a KOTR free of an Ultima counterattack.
If you do this right, you'll only get hit maybe once as your action bars fill for the first time for your revived party, but Ruby will only hit one target for about 7-9k so it's not lethal.
I liked the part where the guy got hit in the chest...
WTF!? No Yiazmat!? That monster takes players 10 hours ON AVERAGE to kill! That thing is the definition of "Unfair"!
I got destroyed by Gilgamesh in ff13-2 so many times...
Battle duration isn't really a measuring stick for difficulty.
Guy talks about two hours fighting a turtle and totally glimpses over the one boss in the same franchise that consistently gives players a full day long headache to this day. and soon in HD.
I agree 100%. Yiazmat was just awful. Yes, takes forever, but he can also kill any max level in 2 hits normally. Even with 1 person back healing and reviving at max level, still took me 3ish hours. I 100% agree, no Yiazmat is kinda BS.
this list should have been most overhyped bosses
Yess!!!!! I was hoping golden sun would be on this list. I was so happy to see dullahan. I expected star mage but hes good too lol
Start at 2:10
Tanks man
The first bit is the best though
Jules really likes hearing himself talk
Mario RPG you open a random door and BAM you are fighting the boss from FInal Fantasy 4
Yeah... and he made Smithy look like a babyback bitch. That fight took some serious commitment
Then you come back with the lazy shell and about 5 Rock Candies and he's nothing, lol
gotta love that "come back n he's a bitch" mechanic lol
The Borderlands 2 one that everyone used to farm but it's basically impossible to do it at any high level. You need to be like max level to actually have any hope.
Kuddlesworth NA When you get the infinite pistol off that boss? So worth it.
All you need is to use gunzerker and chain moneyshot and every boss and raid boss becomes easy mode
Virmiverous?
I'm going to assume you mean Terramorphous? I know there are other raid bosses, but it's the only one that's level 50 when you try to fight it on normal (when you'd be level 28-32). Nah. Cause it's not really meant to be fought on normal. You're supposed to beat TVHM, come back to normal, kill it, feel like a badass, then realize you were playing on easy mode and go back to TVHM and do it again to see if your strategy still works.
Or just do as Warex said and play as Sal. Empty Ahab + Pimpernel + money shot and a few other items = no more raid boss.
Digimon Story Cyber Sleuth: Hackers Memory.
The ImperialDramon Revolt optional domination sidequest is like 3 superbosses at once. You get time to pick 3 of your best out of your party 12 in the pause menu before to launch this sidequest. But your only additional human partners are weak.
ImperialDramon DM, EmperorGreymon and MagnaGarurumon. These 3 are are all separate individiuals with no backup, but its very hard to hurt them.
Its also a repeatable quest but aside from credits there is no achievement trophy or substantial benefits.
Don't forget Red in Pokémon Soulsilver/Heartgold or Gold/Silver. You can only fight him after beating the Elite Four twice & climbing to the top of Mt. Silver. His Pikachu is the highest lvl in-game Pokémon you'll see (besides your own) & he his entire team is lvl 75 or higher. He has Charizard, Blastoise, Venasaur, Lapras, Pikachu & Snorlax. His Snorlax pretty much tanks everything thrown at it, with his Lapras doing pretty much the same, even when hit by Electric type moves. Funnily enough, his Pikachu (lvl 88) is the easiest to beat. Each of his starters have their ultimate moves. And it's hailing the entire time...
DrakeMarvell you mean red from Pokémon gold and silver since those came first
Never got to play the originals, but if he's as tough in the originals as he is in the remakes, then yeah.
DrakeMarvell it was a lot harder back then because you couldn't really re challenge trainers you already beaten except when they called you on the in game phone thing which happened randomly so the only way to really train was the elite four
Hahaha, yeah that was a pretty great fight. The Pikachu almost made me crap myself until I remember that Pikachu has crap in his stats pants. Which is funny, cause as a kid, I remember getting really mad at anyone who said Pikachu was terrible.
"You're just not using him correctly!"
*checks Pikachu's level and notices that it's 10 levels higher than everything else in the party*
Hey younger self, you think that might be why?
wherethetatosat for real I honestly did that fight maybe 100 times I still remember the exact moment I beat it and with what Pokémon I finally got luckily enough to get him down to his last 2 Pokémon I had my lvl 74 charizard and just ko'd his snorlax and red last Pokémon was vensaur and I got him in 4 flamethrower with only like 40-50hp left myself and freaked the fuck out when I beat it in the back of our family mini van and got yelled for kicking the front passenger seat out of excitement
How could you not mention Absolute Virtue from FFXI. it went two years undefeated before a glitch was exploited to finally kill him.
Not only that, but he randomly popped after a Jailor of Love fight. The items for which you needed to spawn it took months to farm.
very much this, wasn't even an easy task at 99
Oh god FFXI had some of most stupidly designed super boss mechanics ever designed back in the day.
Ok the boss didn't make the list because he wasn't supposed to be beaten
Not to mention that every time a way WAS found to beat it, the devs altered the game in some way to make it unbeatable again.
Elizabeth in Persona 3 was way harder
i am really surprised yiazmat from final fantasy 12 wasnt on here
yiazmat isn't hard though. If you know what you're doing he literally CAN'T kill your entire party. He's tough to fight in one sitting, but you can literally fight him at your leisure. As long as you make sure he's not using regen when you leave the area, his health does not reset if you run back and save the game, you could even turn the game off, and his health will be the same as when you left.
That's completely incorrect information.
In ac4 when you accidentally go into the legendary ships and get destroyed, and you swear to never go there again
*Yamcha* on any DBZ game. Now that's a super boss that literally kicks your ass, gets out of the console, jumps back into the box an back on the shelf.
If Yamaha is a super boss,then hercule is the IWILLFYOUUP boss
Yea i got my ass kicked in advanced adventure
Ba'al from the first Disgaea.Just... Ba'al.First, he is level 4000, in a game you can finish at level 80. The characters actualy comment on this in-game.Second, he has the stats to go with it. When he hits you, the game can't write the amount of damage he does to you because it got too many numbers (it uses the japanese kanji for 10.000 to reduce the size, and he does something like 99999 * 10000 to you. And you are lucky if your life bar even reach the sixth digit)Third, he doesn't even need to act, he will counter your puny attacks. After dodging them. Not like you would even scratch him anyway.Seriously, you need to put in tens of hours to level your characters enough only to get a dent in his lifebar.And the real kicker? If you kill him, you can challenge him again in prinny form, where he is just as ridiculous. And level 6000.
I'm glad someone said Baal. He's the reason I spent 70% of my time in the Item World.
Prinny Ba'al has nothing on Pringer X.
DIERSTEIN Julien duuuuuuddeeee!!!!!!
I cant imagine how long you would spend in the item world if you tired to fight pringer x then. I mean in Disgaea 2, i have Plenair, Laharl and Marona all level 9999 on their 10th reincarnation and he still can kill them easily if im not careful .
DIERSTEIN Julien I am glad my PlayStation broke right after pringer x. I almost sink into that dam item world for real.
The hardest optional boss I have ever faced is Darkeater Midir in Dark souls 3
ahmedsafaa1000 same here, fuck that dragon
ahmedsafaa1000 easy af
NERF THIS!!!! 😂😂😂 as easy as Gael
wondering why they didn't put that giant dragon in the list
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA Try The Nameless King.
Lingering will kh2.. sephiroth from kh1..
Darkeater mider ds3...
omega weapon from final fantasy 8.. 1.5 million hp, multiple devastating attacks, one that drops parties hp to 1, level 5 death that instakills any party member who's level is multiple of 5, and terra star that hits the party for 4300 damage multiple times as well as other various attacks.
And i didn't had invulnerability potion nor Lion's Heart. Spent nervous hours fully concentrated, and even so beat him only after days of trying.
I honestly don't think anyone even mentioned this because they probably started and like under 30 seconds finished off every time ... so no one really looked at it as a true super boss because it's near impossible... but it is possible, just not probable. hardly at all
I definitely did not expect it when ff8 took the difficulty to the stratosphere with that boss, especially since the bosses prior to that one were easy, like the omega weapon in ff5 but mandatory and harder.
you know that spell berserker rinoa finishes off omega in about 5 minutes right?
do the chest slap again every video, God that was hilarious lol
In Hollow Knight, the considered "true final boss" is something called The Radiance, but it is completely optional whether or not you want to fight him, so I'm not sure if he counts.
One thing I am for certain about is that fighting this boss is the equivalent to your waiter handing you a plate full of glass shards and stating "enjoy" after throwing a cup of hot coffee in your face.
Well, he is the ''true final boss'' but what is also true is the fact that you don't have to beat him to get the 100% completion so...
It's still a mystery?
The Radiance is a she
the grimm troupe's final true boss makes the radiance look like a little bitch.
Omega Weapon in Final Fantasy V and Ruby Weapon in FF VII.
"Normal Bosses are just bumps on your road."
*Cough* Young Xehanort *Cough*
Little Ben, getting his rage on 😂😂😂
"The Sleeper"
The dragon at the bottom of Sleeper's Tomb in Everquest. It only spawned once EVER per server and once it got done wiping the floor with whatever raid party had dared disturbed its slumber, it would LEAVE the zone and rampage all over the continent of Velious, killing every player in every zone there for the next half hour or thereabouts. Only one server EVER managed to be the Sleeper when they spawned it, and that was because it was the add on late server that was started until five or six expansions after The Scars of Velious, so they were able to take TWO top tier guilds that were geared up with goodies from 5 expansions (not including Ykesha or LDoN, so actually 7 expansions) later and with 25 extra levels (cap raised 5 levels every other expansion) plus the enhancement of Alternative Advancement Point abilities (introduced in the PoP era) to add to their fighting potency and STILL it was kinda close.
The Sleeper was designed as an unbeatable event in the Velious era, and it was only the years of having to raise the bar with each expansion to give the players something worth their while to play for that eventually made it possible for the unbeatable to be beaten. The irony of course was that since the Sleeper wasn't designed to be killed, there were no item drops on the corpse and either the zone or the whole server crashed upon dying. Shit was still so god damn cash.
Anyways, EQ forever, mother fuckers. This Dwarf Cleric is eternally LFG, or sitting at second torch trying to sell a full set of bronze armor that dropped while I was killing gobbies in the basement of High Hold Keep for enough gold to buy my spell components, man.
Actually they took the servers down before he died the first time, they did not crash. The second time he dropped a cloth cap. Also it was not only 2 guilds, they just put the event together... basically anyone who wanted to and could get there joined to help.
You know what would have saved your friend 2 & 1/2 hours of the Adamantoise boss fight? A Titan Summon. That's it.
Also, try the optional bosses in Kingdom Hearts: Birth By Sleep Final Mix. *Those* make Sephiroth look like a mere sparring match.
Yes some of those matches are fairly difficult, but in terms of raw power and health, Sephiroth wins out for most. If you need proof just check which gives speed runners the most difficulty.
Even Kingdom Hearts 2 Sephiroth is harder than Kingdom Hearts 1 Sephiroth...
Believe me when I say this: the Birth By Sleep extra bosses are worse. I've seen it with my own eyes. And despaired.
Data Org bosses or Lingering Will on FM KH2 are evil, especially on Critical Mode LV1. Even the best players sometimes gets one shotted
what? i had to nerf myself to have even a remote challenge on kh2 while on kh1 i had to level to max and die a million times before i even got rid of his invisible health bar.
I still think you should've added the Legendary Ships for Assassins Creed Black Flag
yh I dident have to max out the jackdaw to do it the only one I could even call kind of hard is the twins
Dont think C'thun counts as an 'optional' boss I mean I know you dont have to fight him but he is the equivalent of a story boss in wow, and the end game boss of a raid (i believe the final vanilla one) so yeah you don't HAVE to fight him, but its kind of the goal
Mike Irrelevant Yeah, was expecting Algalon the Observer. He had to be sought out in Ulduar, and was raid breaking...
Not the final vanilla boss or raid. Naxxramas was the final raid along with the tricky four horsemen encounter
He wasn't unkillable tho. C'thun was unkillable until the hotfix.
What about prepatch 0 keepers yogg ?
The diffrence is Yog was mathematically killable with close to perfect dps/not getting hit with avoiable abilities etc, C'thun was mathematically impossible to beat even with perfect dps and positioning. Same with with pre nerf Vashj.
So deatheater midir? the one boss that everyone suggests you fight alone due to it already having a shit ton of health and his attacks becoming even unpredictable when more people join. man i love that dam boss.
IF your going to allow C'thun as a optional boss then the Hardest Most insane boss EVER has to be Final Fantasy 11 Absolute Virtue. Untill they raised the level cap past 75. AV had never been beat without a glitch/exploit. Even after they raised the level cap many groups still glitched to have a chance to win. Absolute Virtue was out for 2-3 years or more before anyone finally beat this boss. The game Devs even made a video of them killing AV to prove to the community it was possible. The community had accepted that AV was unkillable at this time. That's why the devs made the video. Not long after this FFXI got bad press for a group of players spending 18 hours trying to kill the next hardest boss in FFXI. After which all bosses created after that point were nerfed and given time limits even some preexisting bosses got time limits because of enrage timers and others were toned down. Including the boss that took the group 18 hours till they gave up and accepted the loss.
Not sure I'd call it an actual difficult boss, if it just takes a long time to beat.
Speaking as someone who beat AV at Lv75, after they patched out the glitch, it's possible, but we would use about 24+ people, rapidly switching in and out of the alliance for buffs before engauging with all of our 2hr abilities up and doing as much damage as we could because AV uses his 2hr abilities in a certain order; The principle being that you need to kill him before he gets to certain abilities.
While AV got the renown, as it was -the- boss to beat while FFXI was at it's peak of popularity, the optional boss of the next expansion, Pandemonium Warden, was easily much more bullshit.
Their is also Mortimer, in Divinity 2. A murderer rabbit who will hunt you if you killed 30 rabbit in the game.
I make sure I'm next to a high ledge when I kill the 30th rabbit, then I just leap up and shoot him to death over a few minutes. 😎
