Phantasy Star Online Ep I Dark Falz Final Boss Fight

  • This is Dark Falz, the final boss of Episode I, the cause of all the chaos on Ragol. In his Ultimate form, he can use all of his power at his full advantage unlike on lower difficulties. In his first form, he is pretty simple, just be ready to heal if you get hit by too many Darvants or by Heaven's Punisher or Rafoie or Rabarta. In the second form, he gets a huge speed upgrade, and on top of that, when he uses his Rabarta or Rafoie storm, he will summon Darvants around each player that will home in on you, and the Rabarta double hit can still happen. In his final form, Megid now can work on players if it hits, and the chasing lasers will double back on you if they miss initially, making them very hard to dodge.

      Well I usually tried to buff the Mag where it focused on certain stats & I wound up getting certain mag builds that gave you invincibility or even the good buffs that way I had an early edge on Dark Falz since I mainly play solo now but even when I played PSO 1 & 2 online,I made sure to carry the best health options,the items that returned you to life,& also added bonuses from the items that gave you permanent stat increase but I agree that what you built was intresting though having an extra person does make a big difference.

      It's mainly the reason why I don't speed run because I usually try to find all the different materials so I can have higher stats till they maxed out,incase I built my mag the wrong way.

    Good old Dark Falz. I remember many many hours playing this game. Got to lv.198. HUmar. Had loterally the best gear you could get. A legit Tsumikiri J-Sword unlocked, Virus Armor Lafuteria 4-slots. Olga Flow had a better track though. Couldn't figure out why a boss that's more difficult than Dark Falz would only be worth 10% more XP. Falz is worth 50k on Ultimate and Olga Flow is worth 55k. Also, LOVE the Yazminkov. Hardly saw them used for real on PSO. Same with the Spread Needle. Great Hunter accessible guns.

    • @torers
      @torers  7 років тому +5

      If you are referring to Megid, you can actually negate it by having high Dark Resist or EDK. I do believe at 80+ you can avoid instantaneous death from any level of Megid. Unless you are referring to being killed by Rabarta. That is a glitch that can make you get hit by it multiple times and if you are frozen, that is indeed instantaneous death. This can also be mitigated entirely by having a Cure / Freeze. Those are really the only times where you can't have it be avoided. I can agree with you in some instances. This is the first part of the franchise to evolve from the standard turn-based RPG, so I'm not totally against it here.

    • @Xandrick64
      @Xandrick64 7 років тому

      Yeah, Megid, that's it. And I figured you were wearing some equips with dark/devil resist, which indeed helps.
      Meh, I dunno. I can't get down with it, but that's just me.

    Probably a dumb question, but how were you able to shorten the wait period between the last attack and the next attack string for your mechguns? Whenever I use them, I always have to suffer a painfully long lag at the end of a mechgun attack before I can move again.

      ***** I'm not using mech guns. I'm confused. If you are referring to the Master Raven, it fires three shots each time, it's a handgun. The L&K 38 Combat is a shotgun that fires its five shots in a single point. On top of that, I have V101 equipped which increases attack speed.
