My brother and I, we stood up against Yazmat (FFXII) back in 2007. We had to actually rotate between us during the fight so one could sleep while the other fought it. It took us almost an entire day, that's right, we started the fight after lunch and we won against this boss early morning the next day. That was the best moment of RPG gaming in my entire life, to this day we remember how hard it was to keep healing and paying attention to every single detail of this fight just so we could survive while killing him. Also, we did have only one character lvl 99 (as far as I recall) and with no BiS gear at all. It was perfect.

Easy way to kill this boss is I had vaan, ashe and Fran at time and I got all gilgamesh armor and weapon, put it on vaan, made ashe my tank and Fran my range and item user. Plus kept her close to entrance so I could easily return to Crystal to refill. I threw berserker stuff on vaan, and he just went to town on him. Set a gambit on Fran to cast berserk on vaan. And healings when needed.

I always feel like Seymour atop Mt. Gagazet is a nightmare to most Final Fantasy X casual and first time players. Yes, obviously the Dark Aeons, Nemesis, and Penance are more difficult, but they are optional and require sidequesting to even attempt. You can be plugging along in X, thinking to yourself "man, this game is great! It's not that hard!" and then you meet Seymour. I know how to take him down easy now, but "Pitiful mortal. Your hope ends here!" has been etched into my brain!

If you even include Grinding without limitations Ruby is harder. Cause you can Grind for Overflow Glitch to one shot Emerald weapon. Cant do it to Ruby due to his defence stats. But if you include Guides.... Well you figure out he is not immune to stuns..... Which well Dasers and W Summon Hades with knights of the round is just broken... But if you are at that point anyways in the game I think you would agree that you should be able to take out Emerald weapon with ease. Since you are using guides You should also know that you cant carry more then 9 Materia on you in the fight against Emerald cause of is one move that does 1k damage to you for each materia you carry on yourself. After saying all that unless you are using w-item glitches or farming a shit ton of dazers Ruby weapon is a harder fight.

If warmech was ff hardest boss, then secret enemies are allowed in this list. With this, ff6 hardest boss is Brachiosaur, the secret enemy of dinoforest. For ff5, i have no idea of how Omega was not here...his battle is an absolute nightmere no matter your party lv, also is the only enemy to break lv 99 being at lv 119.

@LastKnight0727 6 ай бұрын

Yep, seriously thought they were only going to do mandatory or guaranteed encounter bosses that can only be encountered once. Warmech is not only a random encounter but can be encountered multiple times. At that point, it's just a very hard normal enemy.

@veghesther3204 6 ай бұрын

But its only as PITA to show up take the Pixel remaster under 4x EXP I could hit lv 99 from lv 50 after like 4 to 5 hours AND NOT encounter Warmech even once. Braciosaurs in FF6 are hardest normal enemy to kill even on the GBA version but are still fought more often then Warmech can. Omega/Shinryu FF5 are harder then the final boss and the GBA FF5 has a even HARDER Omega/Shinryu battles post game only though in the GBA version.

Then with Trema I just used Yuna and Almighty Shinra. And for Major Numerus, Mushroom Cloud and Almighty Shinra. The overall concept of creatures was cool, but I just wish you could actually control them other than just changing the star amount.

Whoever did the FFXIV prolly did a single google search found a video game journalist article, chose one of the easiest ultimates and called it a day. Omega Protocol (Ultimate) and Dragonsong's Reprise (Ultimate) are the pinnacle of FFXIV difficulty in group content. Unending Coil of Bahamut(Ultimate) is super hard but it's completely been invalidated due to number changes over the years, dps checks are non existant and the fight is outdated. Also 16:29 Bahamut is not killing the entire party and "resurrecting" them, he straight up just kills the group and the Phoenix just resurrects the entire group, then launches itself at Bahamut, Bahamut then absorbs it and turns into Golden Bahamut, just by looking at a simple Ucob clear video you can see this happen and almost deduct 90% of what I said instead of making up a random story. Golden Bahamut is an extremely easy part of the fight, actually. In FFXIV the last parts of Ultimate phases are notoriously easy to execute and not difficult at all to learn and the reason this is, is because the fights are so massive and SQE gives us the relief of making spectacularly looking final phases that do Insane amounts of damage coupled with the fact that the previous phases are already by definition much harder, so they won't usually put something abnoxiously difficult to deal with at the end of a 15-19m fight. This video is just lmao just for the funs, shits and giggles imo.

Warmech's a random encounter, not a boss. Omega and Shinryu are both tougher than Neo Ex Death. And Ruby Weapon's technically harder to get over than Emerald Weapon. One could also argue that there are harder fights in VI than Kefka, especially if you play the GBA version's Redux Dragons and Kaiser Dragon. Otherwise, I either can't help but agree, or can't be bothered to care.

I agree with most of the list (I never fought Warmech…in fact I honestly didn’t know he existed…). I haven’t personally fought Absolute Virtue…but his difficulty is legendary. Zeromus was never really difficult for me (though I do remember having those ultimate weapons from the optional moon dungeons…so might be a part of a remake?). Emerald Weapon was a bit of a toss up for me…he is ridiculously tough, but I always found Ruby Weapon to be a bit of a tougher challenge (despite the constant time pressure of Emerald). Maybe it’s just me? No contest for your picks on FFX-FFXV…I’ll be in therapy over a few of those lol…Loved the video, btw! 😁👍 Which would be your pick for hardest of the series (including/excluding remakes/spin-offs)?

My argument for why Ruby is way harder than Emerald. You can complete a quest and obtain 'underwater materia' which removes the time limit. Ruby outright kills 2 party members at the start of battle unless you go in with one party member. His defence is absurd knights of the round does way less damage than against other foes so it's not an instant win. From memory, coz it's been a while, If you don't pay enough attention to the tenticles, they can just one shot a party member. But no your right emerald os probably harder.

I’d like to add an honorable mention to PW (Pandemonium Warden) from FFXI. I was in the Linkshell Apathy back in the day and that was the hardest boss ever defeated at the time (before the AV nerfs)

on the DS version of ff3, there are optional bosses harder then the final boss. one of them being a sea snake you could not inflict physical damage upon even with the best gear in the game. the second optional boss doesent hit 2 times each turn. it hit 4 times. it has 400k something HP if memory serves correctly. and you need to be dual wielding shields with every party member in order to survive. because in order to win, your job is not to do damage. but to survive through out the fight.

Where FVIII is my favorite in the series once you gain access to Haste, Aura, and any magic that can be junctioned to Zell to max out his Strength stat he can 1 to 3 Limits and kills any boss in the game. All you have to do is go back and forth from booya to punch rush and it is gg.

FF3 (SNES) or the OG FF6. Master Pug was more troublesome to beat for me. Every newer version Nerfed him seriously and dialed back his chances of opening with 5+ step mine atks at once. It was a quick fight; but the challenge was overcoming 9999 damage repeatedly as he launched atks that did damage based off your step count. Kefka was ultra dramatic but nothing of a challenge in comparison so long as everyone knew all magic as I did each time I got there. Also with the SNES version there was a glitch or something because you could trick out an insane number of atks from Cyan... X2 Tempest (or whatever his air slice swords were called); One relic that lets you hold both swords; one relic worded as X2 your number of atks... any who one of cyans specials would X4 the number of atks... so with 2 swords equipped that would be 8 atks; each of those 8 could proc an Air slice move vs all foes; meaning rare but potentially 16 atks; mostoften 10 minimum. each strike being roughly 1K dam on the low end meant 10K dam was the least he normally did in a turn vs a single foe. Trully a boss slayer combo.

About that even by lv 99 I barely had the STEP counter even reach 100,000 so that Master Pugs step damage move barely tops 2000 damage on the SNES/PS1 version Vanish/Doom DOES work on it.
