    Number 2: if you don't have rydia in the party for the fight, it's an instant game over. as bahamut decimates your entire team with a boosted mega flare. Rydia is the key to the fight! Be sure you level her up! I think I saw a playthrough of that actually happening. Idk who did it, but they just went there, didn't put rydia in the fight and got decimated.

      Zeromus is a fine honorable mention for this countdown, if not a good replacement for #10 in this video. Basically, if you come in underlevelled, you're gonna get your ass kicked by Big Bang and there's nothing you can really do about it. You need to be at least Level 60 or so before you even think of fighting him. You can use buffs, but he'll negate them with Black Hole pretty quickly. This means your characters need to be strong enough to tank Big Bang to the face while also being fast enough to deal big damage to him AND heal from Big Bang.
      Oh, but wait, there's more. If you use White or Black Magic, he counterattacks with Flare, and that shit is already nasty as it is. That move will likely kill one of your characters while you're trying to recover from Big Bang, which is why I recommend you have enough agility AND HP to be able to deal with both before you fight Zeromus.

  • @randumo24

    There are two things about Barthandelus. He's best fought by the best party at that point in the game, which is Lightning, Vanille, & Sazh. Can't believe how many people don't realise that. The combination of haste & offensive buffs from Sazh & defensive debuffs from Vanille just wreck the game. Against him, haste makes things infinitely easier.
    Secondly, needing to grind isn't a bad thing. That area with all the platforms before him is one of the best grinding spots in the game. Everything you fight there drops valuable things to sell except the Thermadon. It's the perfect place to upgrade your weapon[s], because it's the last place for a LONG time you're going to actually be able to earn any real money.

    Since the older version of this video is gone (fucking copyright!), I'll briefly post why Elder Wyrm isn't up on this list despite being clearly harder than the Demon Wall:
    IT CAN BE SKIPPED.
    Yes, you can actually bypass this boss by going through the Feywood to the south and looping around to the Paramina Rift. Just make sure to flee from the Level 40+ mobs in the area first.
    If you decide to fight it, here's the synopsis:
    This dragon is probably the biggest pain in the ass boss in the entire first half of the game. It does every status ailment you've encountered so far, including Confuse AND Oil. You practically need Esuna to deal with these, because otherwise, you're gonna be spending too much time healing and removing status effects while the Elder Wyrm shoots fireballs that can oneshot your party members. It also has a LOT of HP -- over 70,000, to be exact. So you're gonna need to invest a lot of time and recovery items for this fight. You'll likely have Larsa on your team, which will help a lot. Only problem is, his HP are pretty low, so he's going to be healing himself a LOT.
    Of course, your main concern in this fight is Sporefall. This move throws every status ailment you know so far onto your party members, all at once. Unless you take the time to use Esuna and Handkerchiefs, anybody that gets hit with it is probably gonna die. Even worse, some statuses like Blind and Oil stick around even after death, so you're still gonna need to get those off your characters after reviving them. You can Silence the boss to make the fight easier, but you still gotta deal with that goddamn Sporefall attack of his. Quickenings aren't gonna do a whole lot here either, since he has so much HP. Be prepared to spend a LONG, LONG time with this fight.

    Since the old vid was taken down, I'll repost what I remember of my comment on that vid:
    Barthandelus is not difficult at all, and you don't even have to grind to beat him. You have Lightning as leader, but as long as you bring along Sazh and Vanille, who are undoubtedly your two strongest party members at this point, you'll be fine!
    Party Setup: Lightning, Sazh, Vanille
    Paradigms:
    - Rav/Com/Rav (for chain building)
    - Rav/Rav/Rav (for more chain building)
    - Rav/Rav/Med (quick heals)
    - Med/Rav/Med (emergency heals)
    - Rav/Syn/Sab (starting paradigm)
    - Com/Com/Rav (for massive stagger damage)
    Start with Rav/Syn/Sab to begin building your chain, get as many offensive buffs as you can, and as many debuffs on Bart as you can. Once you've got your buffs and debuffs stacked, switch between triple ravagers and rav/com/rav to finish building your chain. Always make sure you've got Haste on. Switch to Com/Com/Rav after you stagger a part of him to quickly kill it. Repeat on all parts of him until he's dead!

Basically don't use medic Hope unless medic Vanille is in play, just keep him in Syn/Rav while the girls debuff as Sabs. Worked like a charm!

    Garuda (FF3): A lightning spamming asshole. This boss requires either some serious overlevelling or specific job-classes to beat. I hope you like using dragoons!
    Cloud of Darkness (FF3): Final boss of FF3 and about fifty different kinds of mean. One tentacles spams Bad Breath (like a Malboro), the other tentacles spams lightning (like Garuda), and the Main Body sometimes uses a nasty full-party attack called Particle Beam. Take out the lightning tentacle ASAP! Trust me, you do NOT want to eat both Lightning and Particle Beam on the same turn.

I have to say the ones that gave him the hardest times were two boss fights, both were Seymour. The first one was the battle in Macalania. Now he made the mistake of summoning Shiva EARLY against the Guado before Anima showed up. The second tim was the battle in Bevelle. Now I learned from my brother’s mistakes, he had lost to Belgemine both times before Macalania so I made sure to beat her and made sure Kimahri was a thief, and when I came to those battles I won just by making sure to follow a specific strategy.

    The final boss of Final Fantasy 1 is difficult, but I've never lost to him. Maybe it's just because I'm getting better at RPGs, but he's not quite the headache that Seymore was, and having to watch that cutscene over and over for a week. The biggest challenge in FF1 comes from just getting strong enough to survive the random battles leading up to the bosses. Once you can get TO the bosses without wasting all your spells, you're pretty much good. Less of an issue in the GBA version since they took away the spell charge system and replaced it with MP.

    If you're having trouble with Caius, in my opinion, it's a timed fight. Guard his flurry of attacks while attempting to cast debuffs. Eventually he'll just stand there. Use chain boosting attacks to quickly stagger him, then go on the assault. you have stagger him fast though or he'll just restart his attack chain. It's not a fight you can win like you normally do. That's for sure.
    As for FFXIII, all bosses aside from the last story boss are timed. This one and a few others are more noticable just because they take a lot of strategy to take down which takes a lot of time.

    2 honorable mentions IMO:
    Lady Yunalesca and Sanctuary Keeper.
    Final Fantasy X
    Lady Yunalesca was kinda difficult for alot of people. She has 3 forms, her hell bite attack does alot of damage AND inflicts zombie... (Double Dick Move)
    Meaning you have to cure the zombie and then heal. Dont even think about using regen... Also she casts death/doom. Like Seymour, you're gonna want to overdrive all your Aeons.
    As for the Sanctuary Keeper... hes difficult because: most people were unprepared for him first time around (the fight was kind of a surprise), those damn status effects suck, He has an extremely powerful group attack, and he casts haste on himself. Oh and good luck summoning. Yuna will usually die in one shot (so will her Aeons) OR because of those status effects you won't be allowed to cast anything. This fight can get out of control extremely fast. Youre going to be curing those status effects constantly. Not to mention he has an extremely potent heal for himself. I remember my friend not being able to beat him for 3 days. 😂

    LOL I fucking feel your pain about the DS Golbez fight, for awhile I actually thought the game was broken and nobody could get past him! The first time I tried reviving everyone, then quickly realized the game expected you to beat him with only Rydia and Cecil. The problem was that my Cecil was a bit under leveled, so Rydia didn't have near enough HP to last more than 2 rounds. So I went out and killed off my party and let Cecil gain like 5 or 6 levels, then I returned ready to kill the bastard, and still kept dying. I died at least 15 or 20 times and was about to just rage quit because I was so fucking sick of killing all those dolls, watching the long ass cutscene where everyone died and then Rydia shows up, then dying anyways. Finally after what seemed like for fucking ever I was able to guess his first 2 shifts and actually hit him with ifrit and shiva, and both Rydia and Cecil were both under 50hp, but Rydia got her last shiva off, and when I heard that crash sound that plays when you kill a boss, and I realized I had finally passed that nightmare I literally ran through my house screaming, lol.

    Lady Yunalesca FFX
    Heconteir FFXIII
    and... that bloody mecha scorpion thingy in FFXIII, during the Stagger Tutorial at Lake Bresha after the party first become l'Cie. Gets me nearly every time. Not long after you have to do the gestalt fight with snow against the Scissoring Sisters... a tough start to a very easy game (barring a few painful exceptions).

      All Death is only in the third stage, second stage ALWAYS start with the attack that cause Zombie so unless you kill her second form before she even get a turn which is possible but I seriously doubt most first timer will be able to do it or try to do it, you can't miss the Zombie statut, really All death is just a first try trap once you know it's there there is no way you will not take action against it (or you just an idiot otherwise) and so one attack that only work the first time and will never ever work again is not something I call Hard.

    While not a difficult story boss per se, the boss I have the worst memories of is Evrae in FFX. To be fair, I was under leveled whenever I tried fighting him, and trying to level up using the enemies in the airship didn’t help. I had to restart the game a couple of times because of this boss, and it taught me the importance (and annoyance) of level grinding, as well as making me actually learn how leveling up in X actually works. So yeah, not an actual difficult boss once I was strong enough to actually fight it, but one that gave me so many problems.

    The correct answer is Yunalesca. Flux isn't too bad if you stock up on Holy Waters. Yunalesca can smoke you even if you're prepared and know what's coming. Make one mistake, here comes a poorly-timed Mega Death and you're toast.

    haven't seen you upload in a while.
    i think an honorable mention is Ark from FF9. He's perfectly reasonable...'IF', you have clear-headed to prevent confusion. Problem is, there's no indication that you need it. No real enemies up until this point in the game use confuse style attacks. the trek to oeilvert has powerful enemies, but nothing you can't handle. Inside you face enemies that use silence and stone a lot (and die to soft potion). But there is NO indication you need clear-headed. And to go through all of oeilvert, make it to ark, have him wipe you then have to do it again...
    What's more if its your first time you probably didn't learn the ability as you never had a need for it, so you have to grind to get it. Or, god forbid, you make it to the forgotten continent with no gear that teaches it and your party doesnt know it. Some clue, ANY CLUE, that the boss uses confusion would be nice!
