Hardest Boss

beatrix last encounter with an under levelled and under equipped steiner and you will most likely be owned
 
I think the hardest boss was tiamat, it took me ages and he really got on my nerves. I don't know whether that means I found him the hardest or whether it he just took me long. Other than that Hades, Necron and Ozma were also quite hard(Hades was the easiest out of them and Ozma was the hardest). Tantarion was very hard but once I found out what I had to do (wait till he pops out, use bio) he was a lot easier.

Ack! I've just remembered one more. The Ark was also very hard (though still easier than all the others I've mentioned). It didn't help that I brought Vivi and Eiko with me either. :P And I managed to beat him in one go...
 
Yer, he's talking about XII I think, lol. I didn't really find the boses to to hard at all. The only monster that game me a run for my money was Ozma. However, if I had to pick one I would say Necron because of his Neutron Ring or whatever it was called (the thing the cast status effects on you), that was annoying (but only if you hadn't the protection). Tiamat's heat inducing attack was annoying as well because it could pierce your protection.
 
Hmm? IIRC Necron's Grand Cross would still cause the status effects even if you had the protective ability. I found it easier to deal with him after I removed the protection abilities.

As for non-optional bosses, I would say the one in the passage to Burmecia (can't remember name). Stupid thing... Necron might be annoying, but unless he gets lucky with the status effects he doesn't kill me.
 
Hardest boss?
I always have trouble with Lani for some reason...I just get too bored with leveling up at that point in the game and she's always at a higher level than my characters. lol.
 
Yes Lani has some good attacks and focuses a lot on dagger. Dagger cna get killed by her easily and there goes your healer which means others can follow quickly.

But like you said if your lvl is good enough and quina has mighty guard and white wind you should be ok.
 
Well that's what it's like with a majority of the bosses (maybe not boring). They're quite easy so you can leisurely steal and do what you like (although probably not as easy as VIII's bosses).
 
I dunno about hardest, but I found Meltigemini super annoying! It kept putting Virus on everyone!

Of course Ozma is the hardest other than Necron, but Black Waltz #3 was fairly hard at that point. Also Soul Cage (mostly because I summoned Carbuncle, then used Thundara on my partu, but Reflect wore out before Vivi got to use it! WHOOPS! ^_^)
 
I think I already posted here, but I would say Soulcage if you havn't taken time to lvl up.
 
Hardest Boss?

For me...FF 9 is so easy game! I have almost all members at lv 99 (Only Zidane now..) Necron dies so fast that he will not use Grand Cross

so..HARDEST Optional boss was Ozma of course =D
 
Truthfully, I thought FFIX was the easiest FF and never really had any problems. I'd go for the end boss.
 
Why the hell am i seeing so many people in here saying that Gizamaluke (guy on the way to Bermucia) is hard? o_O I guess not many people here know about that Tent trick...i'll enlighten those of you who dont know:

Toss a tent on Gizamaluke at the beginning of the fight, a message pops up saying he's been bitten by a snake which inflicts Darkness/Silence/Poison. He's immune to the poison, but darkness makes him miss you 90% of the time and with Silence he cant cast magic. Then you can take your sweetass time stealing from him.

Soulcage...yeah, 1-hit kill. Just cast Life on him. Or use a phoenix down, then with Mug equipped have Zidane steal, that's just an embarrassing death for Soulcage.

Anyhoo, i'd say the hardest boss fight for me is Deathguise. No matter what i do, it seems like i'm never prepared to fight that bastard and he usually ends up beating me at least once. Tiamat and Maliris are pretty tough too, actually.
 
The words hard and boss dont go together in this game. I think they successfully made a game easier than ffVII.

Seriously, I can leave the game running for about 30min in either the final boss with the monkey, or statue face and come back from eating a sandwich and still be pretty much at full health. The game has too many equipment helpouts.
 
Dear lord VR, you have way too much time on your hands... how did you even find out about that? I'm assuming you read it somewhere... but who actually goes through and reads boss strategies AFTER you've beaten the boss. You're obsessed.
 
People would say Nercos or Beatrix

But in my opinion I would say Gizmaluke was the most challenging to start off

Getting harder I would say Garland, Then maybe Trance Kuja after that The tree thingy (forget the name of it) in the lifa tree (unless you use the life attack on it) fight it the harder way for more of a challenge ;)

Overall the hardest boss for me is got to be Gizmaluke
Optional hardest OZMA >_>

Click to expand...

Thats because Venge is fucking hard core.

Anyways, I didn't have any problems with the bosses in this game. Actually, this boss had the easiest bosses out of the series. I rarely ever died to any of the bosses, nor I used a guide to help me fight them. Probably the hardest boss is Ozma since it isn't predicable with its metor spell.
 
LOL? Gizmaluke? I never used any tent and i didn't bother to pick up Quina and i still beat him on my first try. Beatrix does do alot of damage with shock (Killing anyone in 1 hit) and yeah soulcage is easy, even without using life. I actually found the two jokers formed together fight hard. their status effects were very annoying.
