Alma if my memory serves right.

She is a pain, but you can kill her.

Died so many times.

Never had a problem with alma. Her awakened form was a real cunt though, especially her coochie grab move. Doku was also a giant asshole. God I wish I could play this again.

Immlerith was way more menacing, interesting and harder to fight than eredin.

>>377566837
I've heard horror stories about the secret boss in FFX-2.

>>377566329
Fuck this guy. Also fuck the second dungeon where right off the bat a havel guy and pyro charge you.

>>377566235
I was about to ask if you were comparing it to MP or the Emperor, but then I realized it didn't really matter.

>>377562031
This one's a bit tricky. I do think her fight is harder than the end boss', but the whole Nicchae situation leaves me thinking it's the church itself that makes her more difficult.

>>377565458

i never found him that hard as long as walter wasn't with me. the queen demon lady in ikeburo who eats all of the red guys was way harder, imo

>>377566849
idk man, Gwyn kicked my ass an embarrasing amount of times only surpassed by O&S whereas I beat Capra in like my second try.

>>377566967

Eh, By the time you fight him your characters are so broken that it hardly matters. Penance iin X is harder.

>>377566967

FFX-2 has a lot of superbosses, honestly. I assume you mean Trema.

>>377566849
Did you just give up when you got to this guy or something? Gwyn is waaaaaay harder.

>>377562031
i had to use cheat codes to beat that bitch, and i never got to beat the game because the final boss had 3 stages, even with cheats i could never beat the guy

What's so bad about this thing? As long as you have your gambits set up right and plenty of antidotes and whatnot, it's not that difficult.

>>377567967
I had to use my mouse for this part whereas I normally play with a controller kek. I used it again for that boss with the 4 tentacles you shoot at with the cannon.

>>377564156
When do you turn 18?

>>377562031
This was the first boss I ever faced that gave me such a problem, I continually told myself "I can't do this" everytime I died. I tried to rationalize it by saying I did t have enough healing items, or that I simply was not good enough.

Obviously, I beat her, and I went through the rest of the game saying "Well I beat Alma". Her second iteration later on was a fucking cakewalk.

I never experienced a feeling like that again until Dancer of the Boreal Valley.

>>377566849
This guy is really overwhelming when you first fight him thanks to his dogs but this can be pretty easily overcome by having enough poise that the dogs don't instantly stunlock you. As soon as you walk in, sprint up the stairs to the alcove and kill the dogs when they charge you one at a time. Capra is child's play after that

File: Yogg-Saron.jpg (304KB, 1920x1080px) Image search: [Google]

304KB, 1920x1080px

This guy was MUCH harder than the Lich King in the WOTLK expansion for World of Warcraft in terms of not using any of the assist mechanics (often called Yogg-0 for that). Other examples of the final final boss being easier than something earlier in the game include:

>C'thun - Vanilla WoW: much harder than Kel'thuzad even after the nerf that actually made him feasibly beatable
>Muru - TBC: this fight was pretty terribly designed and tuned, thus making for a much tougher fight than Kil'jaeden in the very same raid.
>Ragnaros in Heroic Mode - Cataclysm: His pre-nerf version in the Heroic Firelands raid in Cataclysm is easily the hardest boss in WoW ever that was still mathematically beatable (otheriwse it's pre-nerf C'thun or Heroic Lich King without exploits.) Hell, any Heroic mode boss in Cataclysm before the final raid is much harder than Deathwing. Fuck Wrath babies for asking for nerfs despite complaining about how "casual" Cataclysm was that led to nerfing this fight and everything cool about Cataclysm which led to bitch tier final raid.

>>377566849
This was going to be one of my initial ideas for a post. One of the other guys said that Gwyn is harder, and if looking at individual mechanics for each boss Gwyn probably is harder. But Capra is at the same time among the few handful of Souls bosses that are unfairly hard in that feasibly beating him first time, when you aren't experienced with the game or series, fairly is near impossible.

>>377567387
Gambits made any boss in this game a cakewalk. Even Yizamat

Definitely. Considering how much easier they had made everything in Wrath otherwise, and Lich King having turned into a much lamer villain than what he used to be, everything Storm Peaks and Ulduar related was the saving grace for me that expansion.

Yogg 0 and LK heroic were pretty much equals in level of difficulty, as far as I remember. Also remember that nobody killed LK heroic without the buff stack of 30% I guess...

>>377572646
LK Heroic was just super awfully tuned akin to pre-nerf C'thun. Yogg-0 was more like Heroic Ragnaros pre-nerf, just ridiculously fucking hard but beatable.

Fucking Smaugan, man. Everyone always says they're one of the easiest bosses in the game but I always forget how to beat him. I'm someone who thinks that Alma and both versions of Doku aren't even that bad, but Smaugan gave me a lot of trouble the last time I played the game. Funny thing is, the first time I played the game, pretty sure I beat him on my first try too. I'm not sure what happened.

I don't understand why Alma keeps getting memed when she is so easy and this fucking cunt exists.

She makes Alma look like Pinwheel. Fighting her on Sigma 2 and Razor's Edge is literally the most stressful thing I've ever done in a video game. Fucboi Alexei is no fucking joke either

>>377576487
I played the game and got to the first boss. Got stuck and gave up. Got back to it 3 months later and went all the way to one of the last bosses (the one that spawns mini bosses between rounds). Got stuck and gave up. Got back to it a month later and finished the game.

What a fucking pain in the ass.

>>377576487
He's only hard because of his 100% bullshit grab move that does fuck huge damage and LITERALLY HAS NO TELEGRAPH. An easy way to beat him is to use Dabilaro's ultimate technique to hit his body with the projectile AOE damage which does a ton of damage. If you want to fight by hitting it's head you can stand on one edge of the middle top platform where his grab can't hit you, but it makes his breath a pain.

I don't know how the fuck you are supposed to dodge that grab legitimately. Sometimes he will even spam it like a faggot and hit you the minute you escape the first one.

>>377576589
>I don't understand why Alma keeps getting memed when she is so easy and this fucking cunt exists.
It's actually possible to stunlock Elizabet and get her into a loop, which I'm sure is why people think she's not as hard as Alma. I don't think I've ever done it myself but you can see it in a lot of impressive gameplay vids on the internet of people playing on PotMN and doing impressive stuff. Although I've only played the NG2 version, where I know it's possible there. Otherwise, I've only beaten NG2 once in full and done some of the missions and I've always preferred to take her out the 'real' way. Anyway, she's bad but idk if she's worse than Alma.

>Fucboi Alexei is no fucking joke either
Alexei is very interesting to me, because while on the one hand, he's EXTREMELY fast and does quite a bit of damage, he has such low health, and he can be killed so quickly, in under a minute, if you know what you're doing. He's probably the easiest of the Four Greater Fiends in NG2, though I've always liked fighting him.

>>377576769
I need to go back to my Very Hard run and beat that, then go on to Master Ninja already. Black Normal mode isn't even that hard honestly.

Woah..........

>>377577085
Elizabeth got fixed in Sigma 2 and she is definitely fixed in RE. You can't stunlock her. Hilariously enough you can cheese her story fight by using Genshin's body as a barrier and spamming the scythe UT from "behind" it. She does have one loop I've seen people do but it requires a lot of timing and understanding of her moveset. Basically the people who can pull that loop already can beat her regularly and just do it for speedrunning autism and online rank stuff. In RE as far as i know she has no loop tp trigger, but of course you can just be a faggot and spam the scythe 360 all day until you eventually win, if you want to be that guy.

Alexei actually has an easy loop in Sigma 2 and that's how i beat him because fuck his 1 shot grab spam in MNM. On RE though HAHAHA oh boy, get ready to get triggered because he fucking dodges everything. He's the farthest thing from a fast fight in that game, it's basically an endurance match unless you get lucky.

>>377577890
>but of course you can just be a faggot and spam the scythe 360 all day until you eventually win, if you want to be that guy.
I know people who do this on higher difficulties and actually win are really good at the game and much better than me, but it's so boring to watch.

>On RE though HAHAHA oh boy, get ready to get triggered because he fucking dodges everything. He's the farthest thing from a fast fight in that game, it's basically an endurance match unless you get lucky.
Not sure if I ever fought him in RE. I actually kinda liked how they brought old bosses back and rebalanced them so you couldn't just try the same shit in previous games.

I honestly can't believe that move made it past the WiiU version into the PS3, it's so dumb. They could have at least nerfed the damage since it's main purpose is supposed to be AOE crowd "cc"

I think it's hilarious that they brought regular Genshin back and made him vulnerable to Izuna Drop because so many people just cheesed him with it in the previous game. Kind of makes him a point less boss outside of online missions though.

>>377573843
This actually was the hardest boss in the game for me. I didn't know what adaptability did so I kept getting destroyed by his shockwaves. Such a shit fucking souls game.

>>377580318
At first, I wasn't really sure, but probably Fiend Ryu. I really wish there were more bosses like him. My ideal NG boss would be something like that but with more of an original moveset, like Genshin in 2.

>>377580671
In my opinion it's Fiend Genshin. 100% bullshit free and so fun to fight. That fight is super hectic with everyone dodging everywhere and all the guard breaks.

Fiend Ryu while being fun to fight and novelty has some bullshit like the fact that he can Guillotine Throw and Ninpo you for free damage while you can't do it to him. In Sigma 2 he is literally the worst boss in the game, you only fight him in online missions and always with other Fiend Ryu's, he's Guillotine Throw can one shot you which means the game can kill you when ever it feels like it, he also spams the shit out of shurikens to interrupt anything you do. You basically don't get to fight him in that game, it's just cheese and prayer. I like him in RE, there's the clone Dragon Sword Ryu but they also mix it up by having the other form that gets movesets from the previous games and switches between 3 different weapons at will in the same fight. Over all i think he is definitely at he's best in the first game.

Any of you guys ever try doing a run like this in NGB? No UT spamming, elixirs, and a level 1 weapon in these challenge missions. It was nice seeing a vid of NGB gameplay where UT isn't spammed left and right.

>>377562031
Once I beat the horse guy I never had anymore problems.

I onlt played Black btw. Dunno if that changes the balance, but I weaseled my way past this girl in like 3-4 tries instead of the 15 tries from the previous boss.

>>377584007
I never cared about the whole challenge run meme. In my opinion it's almost always the symptom of bad game design where game doesn't provide any long lasting challenge for the player or is as shallow as a puddle, hence why there are so many Dark Souls lvl 1 challenge runs out there. I feel like NG is a prime example of a series that manages to avoid falling down this pit trap.

That being said i do consciously avoid spamming UTs just like i avoid spamming any other attack, there's no fun in that, i gotta look cool while beating the game.

Nothing wrong with people who want to do these runs in whatever game, just wanted to blog post.

Some guy who rides a horse and summons adds

>>377584891
Oh, he's probably the easiest boss of the game. You just kill an add and use the essence to UT him. In Sigma he is on fire and the horse breathes fire as well but it doesn't change anything really, he just looks cooler.

>>377565458
this also applies to ninja gaiden

>>377584590
Kek, I remember actually having a hard time with him when I first played the game. The bosses that gave me the most asswhoopings would be Murai, the Horseback boss, Awakened Alma, and Doku. Rest were manageable.

The first response isn't an rpg though.

>>377585361
I always have problems with early bosses until I properly learn the game.

Tower Knight in DeS, Cerberus in DMC3, and Elvis from God Hand all kicked my shit in.

>>377585605
Makes sense really, and that's probably why I died so many times to the Horseback boss. Only exception that I can recently remember is Dark Souls actually. I didn't have trouble with most bosses pre O&S, like I died to them but no more than a few times. I was actually expecting O&S to be a breeze, and that people were overhyping them but it took me an embarrasing amount of times to beat them.

>>377566329
this is the true fucker

>>377566609
He is not that bad actually, darklurker is way worst

>>377585605
I think Cerberus is even more overtuned for new players than Murai is.

Why would you be standing? You can roll dodge the minute you hit the ground. The only time in this fight where you stand in one place is when you are attacking her while she is recovering,a and you should never be below her when she is in the air, that's common sense

the only VH that I just gave up on was the one where you had to race between tiny holes

I finished it several times, but somehow I screwed up the ramp each time, and hit the door out

after 3 times I just gave up and never went back

the other VH were all super easy for me, I assume the 7th was the race? I have no idea why that is considered hard, you just abuse the shit out of all the standard stuff, you can actually kill black bull at the beginning if its really that hard for you

>>377595645

Beelzebub, him and Demifiend were arguably harder than the final boss.

Mostly because of the shit you need to grind to beat Beelzebub and him (fucking griding for Null Ailment), and because there's an actual part of RNG to Demifiend's boss fight.

Regular alma is very doable especially on normal. Just dodge, FS and XYXXY combo. Alma Awakened on the other hand actually is the hardest fight in the game. Whether or not your FS works on her seems to be almost random (and it gets more random each higher difficulty level) so you have to resort to the 360Y Dragon Sword attack when she charges at you.

It's Absolute Virtue from FFXI, a boss that nobody could figure out the gimmick to so a guild fought it for 18 hours until people started passing out and vomiting, then it completely restored all of its health. This made news and SE responded to the backlash by putting a 2 hour limit on the fight. To this day no one really knows how you were intended to beat it, the only few wins abused exploits and then the eventual level cap increase rendered the fight obsolete.

DoW II's Avatar of Khaine and Warboss Bonesmasha. Both optional bosses, yet horribly broken compared to the Alpha Hive Tyrant.

Both have ridiculous health, hit like Land Raiders that are driving your way at ramming speed, and have all sorts of broken abilities along with summoning a lot of mooks.

The Avatar is however even more atrocious of the two.

That's the part I'm referring to, it's such a pain in the dick. Purely combat wise, the hardest boss is probably Green Goblin. Carnage too because of the fucking L2R2 sections.

>>377601283
Definitely. It's the closest to a proper boss fight in Doom. 2 shots of the BFG kills The Spider Mastermind, and the two Barons don't take more than 5 rockets each.

>>377565624
Yeah, I hated the fucking flower scenario too. Fucking cutscenes kept fucking up my party, unfusing Karn and sticking fucking GOBI in the fighting half of the party, so I had to waste turns getting my party the way I liked it again.

Oh, wait, that's one of the Generals, not RugaX. nvm. Stupid reused sprites.

>>377566329
this guy is INTENDED to be harder than the final boss.

Shub-Niggurath is a literally nothing fight.

>>377594669
Flamelurker is. Orphan of Kos I beat on the first try.

>>377569485
God of War
Divinity Dragon Commander
Vampire The Masquerade: Bloodlines
No idea what the bottom left is, but I would assume Skyrim due to the texture work of the floor.

>Orphan of Kos I beat on the first try.

Why lie on the Internet, lad?

>>377602239
I'm dead serious. Rom was the hardest boss in the game for me by far. Why get salty because individuals have different strengths and weaknesses, even in gameplay styles?

>>377594669
Nah Flamelurker is easier than Maneaters. Half the reason the Maneaters are such bullshit is because of the arena, one bad move and you get knocked into the abyss. Flamelurker's arena is fairly generic and open, so you have a lot more wiggle room.

>>377602415
Maneater arena was easy to use for your advantage though. Just staying on the opposite side of that big brazier dealie neutered most of their shit.

>>377573519
Poor baby :)

>>377602912
I remember replaying this recently and I breezed through the whole game until this part. it's objectively hard and you have to either just have all your aeons in overdrive or just grind before fighting him

>>377566451
They never lower the difficulty of him from the demo I think. If you played that you were like 10 level higher then you were in this point of the game

UFO has the hardest final boss in the series and Shou is still more difficult than her. She's as tough as the series gets without moving on to extra bosses.

>>377587219
Easy as fuck

just have 9 axe armor souls and spam it in the fight

>>377595462

just use EMP grenades if you can't handle the parryfest


Motherfucking Krishna is harder than YHVH in SMT4A

>>377565996
The hell is this? I remember fighting Smithy at the end but not this guy.

now what

Of the two latter ones, Green Goblin is the hardest.

Carnage is easy to counter if you know what you are doing, but Goblin?

GG has:
>homing fireballs
>can piss himself off for a short moment to shoot multiple fireballs in quick succession
>LITERALLY invincible when on fire
>Get too close to him and you get mauled
>Second part of the fight is him jumping around five times and creating rings of fire, while the last landing creates a expanding sphere of fire

Green Goblin was THE hardest boss.

Carnage can be countered with Venom's tentacles and is vulnerable to grabs, throws, smashing into the ground and back-breaking. Also in the Carnage fight Venom can eat all those respawning security guards to replenish his health.

Secret Final Fantasy boss (even uses the FF4 music and victory fanfare)
Have to do a bunch of specific shit to fight him.

Beat him my first try.

>>377602912
kek, I remember playing this game with my sister and whenever the cross cleave came out it was just gg becuase nobody on the party had more than 6k hp. We eventually got past this and the rest of the game by abusing haste and getting really lucky. I still don't know how we managed it...

>>377596945
Before you do that, maybe you should yank the apostrophe out of your comment.
