What's the difference between a "boss" and a "Super Boss" you ask? Well, when a boss kills your character you get frustrated, but when a "Super Boss" kills your character, it's like they shoved their foot through the screen and right into your balls with enough force to make even Chuck Norris cry.

DS3 is nowhere near a "superboss" due to the fact that people can do a Naked No Weapons Level 1 run and have little difficulties with it. They also can't turn 2 degrees and make you go flying across the entire map!

[@TidmanJ]

Why do you and the narrator in the video talk like this? Super over the top cringe all the time. Exaggerating hard af for a cheap attempt at comedy.

[@themetalone7739]

Gotta say, this seems like a list that is tailor-made for the two FF7 superbosses: Emerald Weapon and Ruby Weapon. Emerald Weapon: No matter how good you are, no matter the level of your characters or their materia, Emerald can and will use "Air Tam Storm". It instantly kills your entire party. Without cheating, literally the only way to beat him is to find, combine, and use two materia; one that makes a party member cast a spell before they die, paired with a materia that brings the party back to life. These are not easy to get. When you think about it, this boss does actually kinda require you to cheat to win. Reviving your whole party when you should have died is a cheat, in my opinion. It's just a cheat that is built in. Ruby Weapon: Right off the bat, he removes all but one member of your party, forcing you into a 1v1 fight in a game that is NOT set up for that. He's got insane defense, is immune to some of the best magic, and using the game's best summon causes him to counter-attack with a spell that could kill you. Then, you need to figure out (because it's confusing, the first time) that your real target is not him, but his fingers. They attack from behind, and take a massive bite out of your resources like HP and MP. Even if you do everything correctly, it's still a fight that takes a frustratingly long time, and a lot of luck.

[@pooman7691]

Air Ram Storm deals 1111 damage for each materia equipped on that character. So make sure you've got less materia than you have health. Ruby weapon, start the fight with 2 dead characters. W-Summon Hades to paralyze Ruby. Then cast knights of the round linked with HP absorb, mine 2-3 times, recast Hades when paralyze wears off. Repeat until dead.

[@NerdyHippy]

Adamantoise took me over an hour yesterday. I'm just glad that I thought to get the Founder King's Sigil first before starting that fight. Helped greatly in the chipping away at it's health since none of the summons could be bothered to come and assist me.

If I had to guess, its cause there are set-ups that make them both a walk in the park, Emerald in about 45 seconds and Ruby, you can kill Ruby without even touching the controller. That being said, first time you walk into battle with them, their going mess you up (More so if you try to fight Emerald with all slots filled with materia)

Okay no matter how much we are gud at the game lets be honest NOBODY HERE defeated midir on his first try

[@cameraredeye3115]

Yiazmat from FF12 should easily be a contender for this list. He's technically not that hard (skill-wise) to wittle down, but here's the thing: IT HAS OVER 50 MILLION HP. That in a game where literally NO OTHER BOSS has over 10 million (except for Omega Mk. XII in the International Version, but even so...). It has Stone Breath, White Breath, physical attacks that have a 5% chance of inflicting Instant Death coupled with a high combo rate, a pentagram attack that instakills your characters, a tornado attack that deals massive damage and leaves you bleeding afterwards, and -- here's the best part -- it goes to Level 146 when it's down to about 10 million HP! At that point, everything goes out the window, and you're fighting desperately to survive and continue wittling down this massive dragon's HP when it suddenly puts Reflectga on your party. Now this won't be so bad... if you don't accidentally cast Renew on a character with Reflect and erase ALL YOUR PROGRESS ON THIS BOSS IN ONE SHOT!!! Quite a few players have fallen victim to that spell for the very reason mentioned here. Imagine working the boss down to 10% HP, only to accidentally bounce a Renew spell to the boss and give him back ALL THE H.P. THAT HE LOST! ...I'm gonna let you insert your reaction to this right here.

[@Gingerkitteh]

cameraREDeye Remember: You can leave the arena to save and replenish any time you like and his HP will remain the same. It's just that by doing so, you raise his base level by 1 each time (Growing Threat is dispelled on the player leaving the arena, so he recasts it as first priority as soon as you're back, thus it upgrades him to level 148, 150, 152... Leave and return enough times and you'll be facing a Level 200 dragon!) and if you don't get out of the arena fast enough he's going to have cast Regen on himself before you change map locations, so the time spent travelling to and from the save point will have regained most (or if you're slow, all) of his health - That Regen spell still ticks even if you're not present. Dispel and RUN!! Plus when he's in Critical HP, he lowers the damage cap from 9999 to 6999, effectively cutting your max damage output by a third; he's only weak to Dark element, absorbs Holy, and nullifies everything else; as his HP lowers his combos become "more likely" until either his Deathtouch weapon mod will get you or his damage output will (try surviving a 14-hit combo even without the 5% instakill chance each strike!); he has an Instant Death spell that hits 100% without Shell and still 50% with; he's basically equipped with Safety and Ribbon; and the arena being littered with traps that also reset each time you leave and return. Plus of course he doesn't just use the Reflectga trick once, he likes to toss it out at random. Only very careful Gambit ordering to cast Dispel (or otherwise use a Potion or other harmless junk) on any character with Reflect as higher priority than the Renew autocast will avoid this trap... But you're only going to know he does it once he's already done it. Depending on character levels, gear, and luck, you could be at him for 10 hours plus, only to get a TPK due to some very unlucky Deathtouch and Death spell strikes on every character brought in to try and run away to recover. Personal experience here with precisely that.

[@Esu_Pi]

The Adamantoise can be beaten in less than 5 mins. I did it using the ring of Lucii

[@anthonybragg8376]

You forgot the extra boss from kingdom hearts 2, Terra. Sephiroth is a cakewalk compared to him

[@prometheus2513]

[@ethakis]

Terra was on the Japanese ps2 final mix version.

[@AlxMar5]

Vanitas remnant or whatever it's called? I thought the mysterious figure was FAR more difficult than him, as I couldn't beat him. With enough persistence, I was able to defeat that Vanitas form on proud but I could barely land a scratch on mysterious figure.

[@Kowtowner]

not sure C'thun counts as a Optional Superboss since he is the last and main boss of the Temple of Ahn'Qiraj raid. Yeah he was a Superboss pre-nerf but if you wanted to finish the raid C'thun needed to fought

[@tc2385]

And you forgot to mention after you wiped, you had to spend 15 minutes running through the entire dungeon just to get back to C'thun, in order to wipe trying to defeat him again. In order to beat him, (after the first patch) you had to wipe a good 30-45 times, at least, in order for the raid to learn the fight. So a good 8-10 hours just in running back to the boss from the start of the dungeon.

[@MrGrimdek]

You forgot to add that trash respawns too lmfao

[@KeisharJeenkins]

Cthun is easily the hardest boss on this list by a landslide, also after wiping you would have to reclear the 2minute respawning trash Gauntlet event that had tons of beatles,

[@1337cheese54]

Probably would have been better to put yogg +0 on here since he was the hardest beatable boss and +0 is optional

[@dreadfury2485]

None of WoW's raid bosses should be on here except for Ouro (who technically didn't die until the day after C'thun died and is the only truly "optional" boss with such a feat). Most of them are not optional whatsoever. Yogg-0, 25 Heroic Ragnaros, Mythic Archimonde, C'thun, Mythic Blackhand, all of Naxx 40, etc. are mandatory bosses to complete the raid. Ouro was not.

I figured out how to deal with that turd burglar. Final attack phoenix. use nights of the round on W-summon, with mp-absorb, and hp-absorb, and you're good. the command that copies, (been a very long time, i cant remember everything, sorry), is an obvious start. Also, on ruby, if you start with two characters dead, he doesnt whirl-sand them away. Just let ruby kill you when ruby has a tiny bit of hp left, so final attack pheoenix brings them all back to life, and then a last hit with W-nights of the round, and the 150k ap will happily master virtually everything. I also know about golden chocobo's etc battle arena blah... feel free to mail for info.

Sephiroth? Really? Mysterious figure and Lingering will are 10x harder

[@s3er0i9ng]

yah I think he was one of the easier bosses in the game, sure he did tons of damage and had a ton of hp but all his moved were predictable. Once you learn his move set you can kill him while being extremely under lvled without much difficulty.

[@DarkIronStorm]

Not to mention that you can pretty much exploit Strike Raid's invincibility frames to bypass some of more difficult Sephiroth's attacks. I didn't fight bosses such as Lingering Will (lack of Final Mix and newer PlayStations), since I've only played original KH1 and 2 and GBA version of Chain of Memories, but I found KH2 version of Sephiroth (which is quite often ignored for some reason) and Phantom in KH1 harder than KH1 Sephiroth.

[@darkberserker94]

I agree that Mysterous figure is in my opinion the hardest KH boss ever, but Lingering Will is pretty easy once you learn how to counter his attacks (like all bosses I guess) but ingering Will's patterns weren't that difficult.

'Rodin, The Infinite One' from Bayonetta 2 is also worth mentioning. You first need to acquire 10 million halos (you can buy everything else in the shop almost ten times with that amount) to even be able to challenge him. He has 5 healthbars (something which only the final boss also has) and during his first phase he already is the strongest and fastest enemy in the game by far. Most of his attacks give you less than 40 frames to react and deal relatively high damage and he can trap you in combos that take down a third of a maximally large health bar. What makes this realy hard however, is that you can almost never take a breather. Unless you can stagger him or trigger Witch Time, he will never leave more than a second between his attacks and just block out of your stronger combos. You have to constantly be on edge. But it gets even worse. Bring him down to 3 and a half health bars, and he transforms into his second phase. He is now unstaggerable unless you hit him during Witch Time, he can fly across the arena within 2 seconds, many of his attacks are even faster and stronger, he'll never stop throwing out attacks and leaves a second at most between them if you're lucky, and he gets a new attack that is insanely fast, can reach you from anywhere and instantly brings you down to 1 hp. And don't get me started on Witch Trials V.

[@corywalck9776]

Ff15 adamantoise, use the death spell from the ring of luci. After about 7 minutes and half his health later he'll automatically die and look really freaking weird. Also with high enough magic you may be able to one hit him with the ultimate magic the second you start fighting him. Sorry for the spoilers and taking away the challenge but there you go.

[@OkayAngell]

Cory Walck before, you weren't able to use the Ring of Lucii on Adamantoise until the recent patches that allowed you to one shot the huge tortoise.

[@corywalck9776]

There's a lot of SMT optional superbosses that'll make you cry, but the worst in my opinion is Devil Survivor's Lucifer.

I've was hoping to see this guy in the video simply because you had to defeat every other hint in the game first then you had to spend hours to defeat him Again this assuming you're not playing zodiac age, which would make the time less, but any boss that had that much health after the amount of work necessary to get the option to fight him deserves some recognition

I'm going to assume you mean Terramorphous? I know there are other raid bosses, but it's the only one that's level 50 when you try to fight it on normal (when you'd be level 28-32). Nah. Cause it's not really meant to be fought on normal. You're supposed to beat TVHM, come back to normal, kill it, feel like a badass, then realize you were playing on easy mode and go back to TVHM and do it again to see if your strategy still works. Or just do as Warex said and play as Sal. Empty Ahab + Pimpernel + money shot and a few other items = no more raid boss.

Digimon Story Cyber Sleuth: Hackers Memory. The ImperialDramon Revolt optional domination sidequest is like 3 superbosses at once.

ImperialDramon DM, EmperorGreymon and MagnaGarurumon. These 3 are are all separate individiuals with no backup, but its very hard to hurt them.

Ba'al from the first Disgaea.Just... Ba'al.First, he is level 4000, in a game you can finish at level 80. The characters actualy comment on this in-game.Second, he has the stats to go with it. When he hits you, the game can't write the amount of damage he does to you because it got too many numbers (it uses the japanese kanji for 10.000 to reduce the size, and he does something like 99999 * 10000 to you. And you are lucky if your life bar even reach the sixth digit)Third, he doesn't even need to act, he will counter your puny attacks. After dodging them. Not like you would even scratch him anyway.Seriously, you need to put in tens of hours to level your characters enough only to get a dent in his lifebar.And the real kicker? If you kill him, you can challenge him again in prinny form, where he is just as ridiculous. And level 6000.
