Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon Boss Tier List (Mid-Bosses Included)

[@ShyGuy-op8vd]

I think what I like most about the King Boo fight is how extremely personal it feels. This battle is strictly between Luigi and King Boo, with absolutely no one else involved. Luigi is completely on his own here. Mario's trapped in a painting, E. Gadd can't contact him, and he's not getting any help from some kind of sidekick. He has to do this all by himself with no support whatsoever, which just raises the stakes and tension even further. Likewise, King Boo is also alone during this fight, not receiving assistance from his fellow Boos or any other ghost. The whole game has really come down to a one on one duel between two mortal enemies with everything on the line. I must say, they absolutely nailed the atmosphere during this final battle. I also love the little detail before the fight where King Boo pulls Luigi back through the portal after being pixelated, but not the Dark Moon piece. He just lets it go. He doesn't even care about the Dark Moon anymore, as he's just so done with Luigi and wants nothing more than to see him dead. Luigi's Mansion 3 fully displayed just how much King Boo's hatred for Luigi has grown over the years, but this is where his loathing of him really started to show in my opinion.

[@Arborvitar]

100% agreed.

[@coopalooper1688]

Not sure if King Boo counts as a mortal enemy, but yeah, perfect summary of what makes his fight great

[@TrueLadyEvilChan]

Honestly I didn't get that too much from Luigi's Mansion 3, but I do agree.

[@melon9933]

I also love how king boo is controling the whole arena. He gets warped into his own nightmare illusion and yet luigi manage to beat him at his own playing field, truely triumphant.

[@Navman_]

Yeah well said. His final boss dialogue in LM3 showed how much he hates Luigi but it really started from here. And yeah like everyone else said, you're in his arena. He's not duplicating himself or wearing a bowser costume. No, he's just pure king boo. He's up in your face trying to tackle you, crush you or drop spike balls on your head instead of hanging in the background like LM3. Not to mention the chase sequence to make the fight more back and forth.

[@TyGuy2462]

I thought the space poltergeist had good buildup, or at least a pretty creative scare that transitions you into the fight. I was surprised you didn’t mention that detail

[@jonathanturley4666]

I hated that boss aswell it killed me

[@hypernovagamingstation]

One attempt for Mr. Ice Face. I find that the best boss in the game. It's really hard, which I like, and it feels super rewarding to hit your shots. After some time, it becomes much easier to hit your shots just because good timing is all you need. I can easily see why a lot of people struggle here. I still don't know how I did it in 1 attempt.

the three sisters boss always made me wish we got midbosses against the ghosts of other former owners of the mansions have some eccentric clockmaker in the clockworks holding a clock part instead of the blue brainiac or the strong sneaker an extra mission in the mine that leads you to meet and battle the guy who ran the thing while it was in operation or the treacherous mansion could've had it's old curator appear as an obstacle between you and the portal, pulling elements from the exhibits to battle you with it felt weird that they're the only bosses in the game like that and it would've been neat to see others

[@battledogs3970]

4:51 bro, I threw a fit as a kid on this boss, then when I was older, I powered through, I FUCKING DESPISE THIS BOSS, it deserves that tier

[@melon9933]

ya, i honestly wished this fight was more, but really it's just break the ice then throw a bomb in it's mouth 3 times in a row, no chance. I played this level so many times that I basically got the perfect science down to how to get it. The last phase you blow the 2 middle pieces, then shoot an edge piece, then shoot a bomb high up so it bounces and hits the last middle piece at the right timing. Also it took me so long to realize you had to throw the bomb into its mouth, cus if you shoot too early it doesn't allow you to fire again right away. You had to wait for him to get close.

[@Jasonjelly_14]

Yeah, I also threw a fit on this boss, I got to the final phase and died

[@SaucyCharmander]

Okay I’m very bias because I probably have over 1.5k hours in the splatoon franchise (motion controlled shooter) but I’ve always enjoyed this boss, once you get the timing down it’s not hard, general advice is don’t move your cursor after you miss, and time it based off of the location of the ice your trying to hit’s starting position. Plus you can cheese the possessor and stun him before he attacks, something that you can’t do in some other fights

[@luminesicore246]

genuinely the hardest boss in the game. I just beat it for the first time yesterday on hd. Shit was almost as hard as i remember it

[@Juno_Kujo]

Same 😭. Thankfully I managed to beat the boss later and actually finished the game.

[@godomoths242]

While the sister's fight itself is kinda boring, I do like the way it works into the World. You see their tree beds, their three chairs, their three sinks and even their three portraits of when they were alive. As far as it know, it's also the only instance of us directly meeting/ even getting to know the (albeit prior) owner of a mansion (aside from hellen gravelys hotel ig)

[@casualkris4806]

Trying to hit the final small piece in the final phase of the ice boss was prob one of the most agonizing things I have ever done. Especially given how much room for error there is to the point that if it restores the pieces even once you most likely are not going to make it. And that guy spins with 100 km/ph.

[@I_AM_A_ROCK]

the cutscene with the giant knight is so fucking good

[@GamingReinvented]

The worst part of the ice boss is that you are taught the mechanics... in the worst way possible. Earlier in the level, there's a section where you need to shoot flaming orbs at ice covered ski lifts, which uses something of the same shooting mechanics. Unfortunately, the way the mechanic is used there, and the way it's used in the boss battle could not be more different from one another. The ski lift section, gives you infinite timer, puts Luigi at no risk whatsoever, has none of this overheating business going on, and puts you under no pressure at all. The actual boss fight has a clear timer before things reset, an overheating device that can cause a game over if hit/the fight drags on too long, has Luigi at severe risk of being killed by the boss' attacks and said overheating mechanic, and basically all but puts a gun to your head and tells you not to mess up or else. It's like being taught to swim with one of those duck floaties in a paddling pool, then getting thrown off on a cliff in the next lesson and told to just "make it to shore somehow" without any of said assistance. Either way, for the most part, I agree with the list, though I thought the setting for the final Poltergeist battle was cool enough to rank it higher than here.

Boolosus has a pretty godd buildup, as it’s actually an ambush, where you think it’s the final level, with it even appearing as the boss level until you beat it.

[@CreativeStoryteller35]

You forgot about the 3 chain ghosts from the Secret Mine. Those are also mid bosses.

[@AarongamerBS]

Those aren’t really that special. It’s basically like the crystal ghosts but you just gotta search for them

[@sarahthenshi3984]

(Late I know, blame the youtube algorithm). 4:51 : This boss was absolutly horrendous, I had to ask my dad to do the shooting part of the boss while I would do the ghost capturing part when I was a kid and I still can't beat that boss as an adult. It is the worst boss I ever had the displeasure of going against. 2:55 : This boss was my faorite however, the stairs prior to the boss are along trek that make the defeat of the boss so satisfying. It feels like you have earned the right to battle and defeat it. The plant aesthetic of that mansion also helps.

Thanks! Yeah I think they fit their environment more than most of the other ghosts. And of course it's nice that they aren't just a different colored Poltergeist lol.

[@aaameatballproductions4557]

6:38 the thing with Boolossus is that you have to put him in a good spot. Whenever he does that ground pound attack stay along the edges, then run to the middle so that he gets stunned in the middle of the arena. It's a lot easier to hit the train from the center of the arena.

[@supermaximglitchy1]

If you count polterpup and refightable boos as mini bosses then there would be 5 more bossfights And there are 3 others that could be counted as mini bosses: strong sneaker from C-5 is very similar to the final boss of that area (“it’s just greenies”). The strong ghosts from the crystals (D-2) where you pick who to fight first and then the other two right after. The chained strong ghosts from D-3 (somewhat speak for themselves) they’re stronger than strong due to the chains

the funny thing about the final boss with King Boo is just the name of the level being so ungodly cool. "A Nightmare to Remember," for whatever reason, that always stuck with me. it was just too perfect of a name for the final confrontation

Honestly absolutely loved this game and is my most replayed game in general.

I don't enjoy it, I think overset possessor is one of the best bosses but as someone who plays Luigi mansion 2 and got up to the king boo fight, I do know those ones, and I did struggle, would but them at f tier, I don't remember music, you only this ONCE in the game, there are no mechanics, just flash and suck, worst part is that THERE IS NO BUILD UP FOR THESE GHOSTS, YOU WANT TO PROGRESS WITH THE MISSION, NO, THESE GHOSTS BLOCK YOUR WAY, they even come in at the shortest level, secret mines

I mean tbf those guys become common enemies, but they do have a lot of health for a strong ghost and they are sorta treated like a mid-boss like the Sneaker in the Old Clockworks. If they were put in this video then I'd imagine they go in F or something lol. No build up, no unique music (Just the standard haunt music) and the only purpose they served is to slow Luigi down. At least they look cool. The Chained Strong Ghosts look awesome lmao. The Strong Sneaker in Old Clockworks was better. C tier imo.

When i look back at this game or at least the bosses in it, stuff like the haunted towers boss could've been traded out for way cooler stuff. Like the whole concept is that it's a mansion built around a tree, so why doesn't he posess a tree as the fight? Or if you wanted to keep the staircase and clock (which to be honest aren't very creative) you could've made them minibosses instead after the first world.

[@Cy-Fi]

That ice monster is the only reason I despise the whole level. The level has a great concept, amazing atmosphere, and overall great level design... but then that boss comes in and ruins anything the level had going for it because of how horrible the fight is. The gyroscope can be so finicky, and the fact that he can't stand still for 1 second makes it a chore to get rid of the ice. Not to mention, if you miss that last shot when hes inhaling, then too bad. You restart the fight and it keeps going and going...

My opinion on some of these bosses changed over the years, here's what I had to say: I used to be terrified of the three sisters, but now if I'm just patient enough and can time it right, I can avoid getting hit at all The staircase boss was always my favorite and I don't really know why, I guess the first part was really fun to me as a kid The clock boss has always been my least favorite because it's not really memorable and it doesn't stand out as much as the others, but hey, at least sucking up three ghosts at once is super satisfying I used to rage a lot on the ice boss but now the only thing that frustrates me is when the center pieces are out of reach and now you just have to wait for it to reset to actually be able to clear it, this is a little biased though because it is my favorite "mansion" after all The three poltergeist fights never really stood out to me, I don't have a lot to say on them I never had problems with Boolossus, I guess rng was on my side every time I fought him lol I loved how nerve-wracking King Boo's fight was, definitely my favorite out of all three games.

Honestly, the boss could have gone with something entirely different.) 5) Ancient Poltergeist (would have loved for a unique remix of the Piano theme for his boss theme... but legit he is a freaking joke. You can stand in the sand pit and as long as you keep your distance, and stay near the edge, you can dodge the bonbs and not even have to run around said boss) 6) Strong Sneaker (this was skipped but it's a decent fight as you have to fight 3 waves of greenies before the Strong Sneaker attacks (as if he is summoning minions before the battle) 7) Overset Possessor (Low B-tier for me. I think the build up was solid enough. A boss gauntlet is a solid idea. Maybe if it was a bit harder, I think it would be entertaining. 8) Shrewed Possessor (honestly, B-Tier.... so many people struggled with this fight, and it's hilarious that people bitch about it so much, and yet the game teases you a tutorial with the Potato cannon in Haunted Towers for a Gem... and then later on with the Gondola itself. It does EXACTLY what is intended. they are tutorials on how to use the weapon before the boss, and yet because people don't get a "Eggad Phonecall, telling you how to use the machine or an actual tutorial, they get frustrated with this fight and lose. This fight is better than Overset)) 9) Strong Poltergeist (Ok fight but yeah, it's a bit weak) 10) Big Boo (this fight is annoying.... but it is the hardest mission to 3-star. So it deserves a low B) 11) Tough Possessor (high B-Tier or low A-Tier would have loved for more knight posssesion for the rest of the mansion.) 12) King Boo (SSS Tier.... Legit King Boo has never been better until Dark Moon came out and made him an actual threat.

The second possessor only has 2 attacks : Slam and shoot blue fire, and that’s it, you can just walk around in circles and he won’t hit you, however, I did like the concept of the fight being a bit bizarre given the fact that you’re facing a literal staircase. Now, the fourth one is also just easy for me, I never lost to him, you just have to aim properly and hit him, while he doesn’t attack. Even if you miss the bomb that has to get inside his mouth, you’ll still have time to throw another one and release the ghost, what I liked about this boss is that the possessor’s idea was just escaping deep down within the mines to take the moon piece and we have to chase him, or he escapes with the piece. And a little side note, I feel like they overused the Poltergeist way too much, he appeared in 3 worlds as a ghost that would make you go all the way around the map to find a way to get into the room he is, and heck, he’s even the final boss in the scarescraper.

Charlie remember me when you become famous

The quality of the Shrewd Possessor ultimately comes down to "Do you know how to beat this guy?" and the answer is either "yes" or "no"

Average Kingdom Hearts gameplay:

[@BroodingAcorn]

"Youre probably not going to get stuck on this boss" Me getting stuck on the 3 sisters and never being able to play the rest of the game because of it

[@user-jb6up7nq1u]

I am probably the only person in the world that likes the ice boss. I did him first try

[@HEAVYLIKESANDVICH]

Yeah I got stuck on the Shrewd Possessor for so long too

[@janmolina7453]

do you have a texture pack for dark moon it looks really nice

[@CafeCharlie]

Nah it's just emulated and upscaled, but it runs horribly. I had to play it at like 1/3 speed with intermittent freezes and speed it up and cut out all of the freezes.

[@insertjokehere3430]

How is the ice guy difficult? I wouldve ranked him A, he looks cool, mechanics are cool, i like the soundtrack and i found him easy. By the third phase i had enough practice to hit all of the ice blocks first try.

[@sanslolk]

I 100 percent agree with all the choices

[@xinpingdonohoe3978]

I'm going to be frank with you. It's not until I came to the comments that I realised you weren't Nathaniel Bandy.

[@H24a3wla]

Sorry but in my opinion the blue poltergeist is A! Great build up fron the chapter before and cool fight..

[@mrmeme9700]

love how in the thumbnail F and S are the same exact boss

[@CafeCharlie]

Actually the S is the possessor for the Knight boss fight.

[@mrmeme9700]

@@CafeCharliedidnt he have 5 horns?

[@Rubior426]

And still... I'm the strangest here: the fourth ice boss was my favourite as a kid, I was just good at hitting the ice plates, good timing as instinct I guess? But I loved it.

[@Dyolos]

Secret mine’s boss is the only thing I kept replaying because of the hd remake.

You can disable the i(nformation) cards from popping up by clicking on the gear icon seen by moving your mouse over the video and disabling annotations. 1:22 Top right for more context.

[@CafeCharlie]

Oh yeah, thanks for that! That'll definitely be useful in the future.

[@CC-tq8wf3bs8r]

1:47 1:53 I feel your pain Zack. Also I too hate the ice boss.

[@FILE1Gaming]

Bro hyped up the ice guy

[@theplatypus-rr5je]

[@bigbadbrock9512]

The clock tower poltergeist is my favorite

[@Jme_hde]

Here after the Switch port announcement 😌

[@nebulavonmad7967]

Not to be nitpicky, but shouldn't the scare scraper final boss. E in the ranked list too?
