Those fireballs could not do jackshit against him, picture endless runs to town to pick up mana potions and then grinding skeletons to be able to afford them.
Also the Grim Reaper in the first Castlevania game was just mean.

Link KoTR to HP Steal and W-summon it and mass mimic. And link phoenix to final cast just in case. I think that's how I did it, so long ago...

Hardest bosses are all probably DMC (1 and 3, I never played 2 but I heard it was easier) bosses in Dante Must Die mode. I've never played Ninja Gaiden though, although that seems like a game that would be pretty awesome to play (I thought the impossible bosses in DMC were fun, to some extent, so the difficulty level of NG sounds like it's right for me).

Edit: oo I forgot about Disgaea bosses, but that games all about grinding anyhow, so I don't know if that counts as hard.

Get the carsomyr and use a protection from undead scroll -> GG

Are there any middleground between the Tactics Mod and normal BG2? Tactics seems too ridiculous while BG2 is too easy nowadays, very challenging during the first playthrough though..

lol i have one that beats em all

Valkyrie Profile: Covenant of the Plume (for NDS)

When you get the evil ending, you're facing enemies that have about 7000 health and do about 300, and your characters are about 1000 health and do like 50. The boss has maxed out stats (9999999 health, 9999999 dmg, etc). Try beating her
When they see MC Probe, all the ladies disrobe.

Emerald weapon

First get the underwater materia (transform the undead boat in the underwater reactor). Give manual to old man who gives you underwater materia which removes the timer from the emerald weapon fight.

Give each person mimic
one person gets wsummon and knights of the round linked to hp drain
another person gets final attack and pheonix.
have one person with enemy skill to use big guard at the start of the fight.

Then on, spam kotr.

you want as little materia as possible on each person in this fight as emeralds big ass attack that hits your entire party for insane damage hits based on how much materia a person has equipped, so almost no materia = little damage

its a long fight due to the summon annimation, but its not bad.

Sword Coast Stratagems.

For the most part it doesn't actually buff up monsters (only a few where it makes sense, and even those can be disabled). The primary changes that it makes is that it redoes the spell selection of the enemy casters in the game, and drastically improves the intelligence of their spell usage. This applies both to real casters and to monsters with spell-likes (e.g. Fiends, Dragons, and Beholders). Those monsters also can be buffed to have statistics closer to pen and paper D&D, for instance, Mind Flayers are given more psionic abilities (some approximations are made--Beholders are supposed to be able to overload Spell Turning-type spells, but this is approximated by giving them a random chance to break those spells with their ray attacks).

The mod also buffs up some of the weaker or more boring encounters of the game, particularly the random encounters. The most interesting of those changes I found was the change to Demilichs, which gives a saving throw to their Imprisonment spell, but also makes them 35th level casters. This, generally, makes the fight more interesting.

I haven't played the game personally but I can only imagine the outcome. The hardest boss for me I think would be Akuma from Street Fighter 2 Turbo.

I've played that game before Charlee...it's actually my favorite genre of games.

"Bullet Hell" is the nickname of that particular series, it's called Mushehimesama... kinda like Touhou in extreme mode except 500x harder. lol.

silly rofladins and their buffs made things much easier in most fights, but yeah even though i didnt play alliance id imagine that fight would be considerably harder without the totems

Wand with +1 to Clay Golem (if you don't have it as a skill) and +1 to Iron Maiden (also if you don't have it), just keep the curse on him and keep summoning the golem for him to whack on it. Great for Andariel and Diablo as well.

dude he has that cold aura and he'll just slow you and rape you


lol I beat duriel when I was fucking 10 years old without dying! with barbarian, necro and sorceress!

Just have LOTS of town portals and just go back home when you're low on health and heal, repeat the process.

We had Decurser back then though.

Viscidus was not a hard fight for alliance... it was just a stupid one that wasn't worth the effort to do it.

Sapphiron I wouldn't consider hard either. There was a "critical hp" point where you got so much HP from world buffs that the fight became a joke. I remember barely being able to keep up with Sapphirons damage output going on just consumables and getting maybe to like 70% and then we go ahead and kill him first try with world buffs.

C'thun was damn hard though, I loved that fight.

all of those deserve a spot in the hall of fame for MMO bosses. Gothik the Harvester was also one of those.

For TBC the pre nerf POSSIBLE variations of Kael'thas and Vashj were both extremely well made bosses. Kil'jaeden was also an astoundingly well made boss.

Well made bosses for WOTLK? Well.. not a damn one lol lol lol.

W-summon Knights of the Round, mimic over and over.

Kill him before he casts Aire Tam Storm because if he does then all your party dies instantly. Even with final attack + phoenix, I couldn't set up the W-summon knights of the round mimic rotation again, so I was screwed anyway. That's how I killed it anyway. Ruby weapon was much easier for me, because he _only_ removed 2 of my party members from the fight, rather than killing them all at once with Aire Tam Storm ><

Aire Tam Storm did 1111 damage per materia on your character. Since at that point in time you're likely carrying like 16 materia or something per character that's why you die.

It was quite easy to set up a team that had 9999 hp 999 mp and the required materia without doing anything gay like W-Summon KOTR mimic.

I always got a bad taste in my mouth from that sort of strategy.

It's been like 14 years by now, but I remember beating Emerald Weapon without the underwater materia. I didn't have the Internet back then and didn't have a strategy guide so I didn't even know it existed. With the time limit, summons were out of the question so I killed it with 4x cut materia, quadramagic flare, 2x ultima, etc. You had plenty of time to cast ultima and destroy his eyes/gems/whatever before he cast Aire Tam Storm. It wasn't even hard.

Admittedly, a raid's performance was always directly related to how much they cared about doing a fight, and no one cared about Viscidus. Still, it was an incredibly hard boss.

C'thun went from absolutely impossible to average difficulty when they nerfed him. Dozens of guilds killed him the day of the patch without any problems, and he was never difficult to repeat. Awesome fight though.
