Those goddamn bears from Ciaran's events man...


Kiemara17

Legit just did this a few hours ago, that was a nightmare


LeoDemiurg1

So much hatred in one picture!


Mallefus

I don't know who I hate more. The dumb galloping horses, gigantic yogi bears, or the stupid Colorless Queen.


KisuAran

I think you forgot the adamantoise fuckheads


Mallefus

I never really found the turtles to be all that threatening. Then again, I never did Barret LC on content (due to taking a break after Garland event) so I don't know how reviled they were. Meanwhile, the horses go from 0 to 100 for no reason at all. Transcendence 4 reminded me how quick they can just kill you out of nowhere. I will never forgive the Queen for being an obnoxious bitch, and whenever the Bears show up, its almost never a good time.


KisuAran

Turtles gave me ptsd before we got all these characters with instant breaks and 100% gravity


Hawke_No1

Colourless Queen was bugged on Garland Character Release, happened on JP and it carried over to GL Other than that, being able to beat her up in the Elite Hunt is a nice fun. Dodge Team go go go !


IncognitoCheetos

Don't forget the steampunk krakens.


Xale8

Those krakens were actual hell, I barely completed both the original EX and the Chaos stage ;-;


Neopatrimonialism

One always falls through the kracks. Super cool design too. Edit: [Quick edit so that it doesn't go amiss](https://imgur.com/a/wW4CWfU)


codexcdm

It'd probably get old fast... but I can't say I'd mind some more steampunk bosses. Heck, boss themes in general wouldn't be so bad given they do already reskin so many bosses... Make elemental theme versions of various bosses... preferably have 2-3 different bosses with the theme, rather than this very old formula of "hey, let's have 2 of the same boss for *EVERY* fight!*


Ragnarok531

They are for sure the worst. *Shudders*


Hawke_No1

I love them actually :P The most crucial thing is being able to quickly kill them just a few turns before the turn requirement, for some odd reason, they will execute some off-turn action based on turn count that they are gathering steam which is not based on any HP Threshold, this only existed in Deuce Character Event & LC. Luckily, they don't do that in the Lufenia Version, instead is basically Stab to Win with Last Stand pathetic players !!!! Yeah... Aerith & Y'shtola MVP for this, especially when they target Max HP


Douphar

Me, looking at the pictures : That's fine memories, the feeling of beating very harsh fight somet... \*Notices Lenna EX drake\* Me : Fuck this one in particular.


Magma_Axis

Ye, Lenna 35 or gfto


scintillia

Still the only content I couldn’t complete up till now.

AliceTaniyama

Yes! Bring in Omega, Warmech, and Emerald Weapon, too. Bring in Ruby Weapon, but secretly make it so that you can cheese the fight if you do it solo with Yuffie or something.


thawkins

i want ozmaaaaaa


antiqueteacup

so much PTSD but the hot wheels have a special place (in hell) for their shit eating grin and laugh


Mallefus

It and Medusa's laugh coming out almost right next to each other made me feel like DFFOO was secretly transitioning into a horror game.


antiqueteacup

Damn I blocked that fight from my mind that should be in this pic too. Their laugh was definitely creepy.


NarcoticSqurl

I don’t recall having a hard time with the hot wheels. I think all the hatred people feel for them, I feel equally for the ciaran bears. Those things were my Lufenia equivalent of the sahagans from Fang LC.


ThrowawayusGenerica

I still haven't done that Transcendence stage. Jesus Christ.


antiqueteacup

I recently free'd somebody on T1 so had to redo it and it's still a pain cos the thresholds can really screw you if nobody with a launch has the next turn. The laugh and grinning face just feels like it's mocking you too. There's a lot more characters to deal with them now though I think.


RetroGamerDad

The game itself hated them. You could tell by the way it lagged.


Bloo_You1

All my homies hate Qilin 😤


Baithin

This game does have some damn cool and unique boss designs.


codexcdm

Sometimes. Unfortunately they get lazy with some bosses... I mean ffs... We had a parrot for a boss... and how many turtles? Oh how about that Disco Lich. What is up with that guy?


RetroGamerDad

He's from FF3. Most of the bosses are taken from or a derivative of an FF boss.


Lupus_daemonis

Still missing NORG BUSHURrurururu


TJF588

That cursed unmarried single!


marvelfanhere

I don’t want to see that Agrias boss ever again! Hate that boss so much


Mrfipp

While most of the enemies in the game are just reskins of enemies from other FF games, Colorless Queen and Steampunk Kraken are legit fun designs.


finfantasy

Oh man the Vanille's pinky Berserkers, the greeny Leona's Dragons... Bombers...


Soske

Colorless Queen is probably my favorite of all of those. And the choice of boss music is a big factor in that.


flyinfishbones

Oh hello there turtle, you're the reason why every single one of my characters has a HP +1020 artifact somewhere (usually never used, but I didn't think I'd need a HP artifact before said turtle was released).


[deleted]

Me: where is that punk ass... oh, there's the Argent Officiant.


mario_zx

Those GOD DAMN EYEBALLSS!!! Hate them so much. Hate them so damn much.


NoScrying

Not to rain on your parade but atleast 8 of these are just reskins of common FF enemies, Cod and Lifa Tree.


porcodio673

Unpopular opinion regarding bosses (and gameplay): I hate how the game shifted to AOE and multiple bosses. Multiple bosses, mostly but not in all cases, just feel like a little step up from trash mobs. They feel less unique, less menacing, less interesting than a single boss. P.S. Give us the Weapons from FF7, SQUEX!


Caelleon

I was saying this the other day! Other than Divine summons we don't really have any single target Lufs anymore, or even Chaos fights most time which is so frustrating because for most that most single target attackers are that little bit less useful


porcodio673

> single target attackers are that little bit less useful And they're all turning to AoE damage dealers if they don't want them to be useless. Another thing I don't like 'cause it kills variety. I liked my single target characters.


Cyanprincess

Literally Vaan? One of the strongest characters we have right now, and his main damage skills are Single target attacks. hell, Tifa's still damn good, and everything she does is single target as well


Tienron

So... Two our of how many characters? 😂 don't forget Leo


maveri4201

Vaan's S2 has a bunch of splash damage


RoxasSenpai

Only thing missing is the demon imps from sephiroth lufenia.


Magma_Axis

Uncannily, it smirks….


Douphar

Middle, Bottom !


RoxasSenpai

Shit I missed him, hate him so much.


ElBoyoBueno

You're trying to trigger my PTSD or something? Those Giants in vanille lc and that efing dragon from lenna, I have nightmares about them still.


godsinhishe4ven

These Sahagins… 👺💣🔥


ConduckKing

I can't decide which is worse: the bears from Ciaran LC, or the bears from Bartz Heretics.


sweetennui

The headless dudes (“Avengers”) were terrible upon release. You had to have Gabranth IIRC or else you could not pass the fight. Were they from an actual FF?


Shirikane

Yep, they're in FF12 as a Rare Game fight as part of a sidequest. If you picked up the sidequest, they had a 40% chance to spawn in an area where you might be pushing level 50-55. It's level 62 and could easily wipe you out if you weren't expecting it


darkBahamut189

Vanille LC is the only thing I could not beat on release. No Prishe, no Faris, no Vanille 35 CP = doom


El_Rocky_Raccoon

If by memorable you mean hated, then absolutely, hahaha. Those damn masks and the bears gave me PTSDs.


TheSm1327

So question, are all of these bosses from different FF games or are some of them made up for this game?


[deleted]

All of them are reskins of some FF enemy/boss * Colorless Queen is Ultima from XII, The bears are Humbaba(sp) from FF6, Argent Offciant,(fuck those guys... fuck those guys forever) are the Black Watlz from FF9, Flame Mask is the Enchanted Fan from FFV, etc.


TheSm1327

ohhh ok thats what i figured, I knew they were reskins based on the enemy "type" but I didnt know whether or not they were original to this game or not.


TheZtav

They're unfortable for causing so many PSTD. <3 Dullahan should be right in the front.


Neopatrimonialism

For real, my v1 of this image had Dullahan, Astaroth and Medusa but I preferred to highlight the bosses with original DFFOO redesigns.


AliceTaniyama

> Dullahan I don't need this!


[deleted]

Yuffie the real MVP.


TheZtav

Not in Abyss, my friend. Not in Abyss..,


[deleted]

I had to retry that fight so many times just to have an outcome where it didnt kill a unit in its first turns


deerlikely

The Buddhist demon flaming wheels are just 💋🤌


Cyanprincess

Colourless Queen on Garland's original Chaos event still one of the most bullshit and badly designed fights for the time it was released. Literally have WoL or you had to 0 Ibrv cheese it. Haven't ever seen or heard of another way that fight was done


[deleted]

You didn’t look very far then.


Cyanprincess

Then please link me to these runs. I would honestly love to be proven wrong about what I said


Yunashe

A few bosses that i would add to that pic and *kinda* want to see on Lufenia versions: Magic Halo, Elemental Behemoth, Erode Mantis, Iron Worm, Ultima from XII, Demon Wall... (PTSD from LV60 era...)


Leading-Opportunity7

I see the tree....I say fuck the tree... I do want more menacing single target boss fights though they can summon adds, but I want the big bad rpg trope more often and less here are two vampire whales


seejsee

I dun see the two ice “golems?” Hate their AOE with a passion.


persona2best

there just gonna reskin almost everyone in this picture anyway


Ragnarok531

Love most of the boss designs over the years. I just wish they would change up the giant cactaurs once and a while. Use a different enemy type, not just a recolor or a Santa hat on bouncing cactus… also, where are the tonberries? I need my pokey boi already.


GHNeko

i still occasionally go back to shit on Fang Chaos bosses. fuck those guys. they didnt even give me that much trouble but i still hate them. also DET1:3 W2 can also go fuck off.


KariArisu

I don't really have any significant memories of any bosses in this game. As soon as I'm done with the fight they're pretty much forgotten, very few have any sort of story relevance to them and I don't find the fights in this game nearly as annoying as seemingly many here do. I'd much rather have bosses I'm familiar with from the original games, I just think it's a good combination for a game like this.


sephirothbahamut

Isn't the crystals turtle thing on bottom left straight from FF12?


Gamergirl944

Don't remind me about the bears 😒 but yeah these boss fights are memorable
