Final Fantasy X - Omega Weapon (No Sphere Grid & No Summons)

This is a very tough battle and there is one good reason for that. Unlike the arena monsters, this guy has a rather complicated AI, so there's a lot to keep track of. The attack pattern can be divided into steps, and it goes like this:
Step 1: Attack or Core Energy (death to random target)
Step 2: Attack, Break or Confuse
Step 3: Attack or Shimmering Rain (death to all but Auron)
Step 4: Attack, Demi or Ultima (death to all but Auron)
This is more complicated than it looks. He doesn't just go through the steps and then repeat. He only progresses to the next step after using something other than Attack. However, he's got one more attack and this is where it really gets fun. It is called Nova and it kills everyone including Auron to death, so you need to mix Hyper Mighty G for it. When does he use it? Whenever he gets 30 points. What are points and how does he get them? 5 points every time he uses Attack and 2 points for everything else. Once he uses Nova, it resets to 0, no matter how many points he had. Got it? I hope so, because otherwise you are not getting through this battle.
Auron must be beefed up as much as possible in order to survive Shimmering Rain and Ultima, so start the battle by giving him double HP, Shell, Protect and 5x Cheer and Focus from Ultra Nul-All. With all this, he can also survive a regular attack without defending, so there's no need to worry about that. He also needs Haste, so make sure to toss him a Chocobo Feather before you start attacking. As soon as you see Confuse or Break, you must bring him to the front line and keep him there until you see Ultima or Demi.
As for attacking, the best time is between Step 4 and 3. Just pay attention to the turns and make sure you will have time to switch in Auron before Step 3. With some luck, you can get three Attack Reels in a row. Rikku can toss items if she gets free turns, but he's immune to all regular elements, so no gems allowed. Don't mix Trio of 9999 when he's got more than 20 points, and make sure to switch out Rikku when he's got 25 or more. You don't want her to get killed and not have a chance to mix Hyper Mighty G before Nova. Also, pray to Yevon that Nova doesn't come up at Step 3 or 4. Especially 3. He always gets one more turn before you can do anything after Nova, and if that turn happens to be Shimmering Rain or Ultima, it's over. Thankfully, this is the only luck reliant part of the battle, and you will most likely only see Nova twice.
There are two things that make this battle more annoying than it needs to be. First of all, Auron some times only revives one character. This character can be anyone that he revives at any other time, so there's really no system to it. The other thing is the fact that Shimmering Rain, Ultima and Nova some times do not fill up Rikku's overdrive bar. This also happens at random, no matter what position she's in. Even though it's a slightly luck reliant battle, you're more likely to die by mistake in this one. At least I was. I always managed to keep track of the steps, but I forgot to add points several times and ended up seeing Nova without being prepared for it. I also fucked up the Attack Reels now and then, and that's obviously not going in the video. The final insult is the fact it takes over five minutes before you get another shot, since you need to go through seven battles on the way. Despite the problems, this is still a good and fun battle.

I did this challenge way back in the PS2 days, and I can confirm that you can shortcut this: Complete these battles, but don't fight Omega. Backtrack to the save sphere instead, and save. Now, if you lose, you still have to take the long walk, but no battles on the way.

The comments about him hacking and lying about not using sphere grid. Have you guys even played the game? He used Rikku's 'Mix' overdrive. The items he mixed are 'rare' yes, but its not impossible to get it. Even without sphere grids. Based on this fight I can tell he uses the advantage of mixing items and using the item itself for boss fights. Just because it says 'no sphere grids' it does not mean everything else is prohibited as well. smh

[@terozu5440]

The Doctor Is In Wasnt it shortened to Omega due to data constraints?

[@muffetmissulena6540]

Nope. Two separate entities. I’ll just copy/paste this from the wiki: “Though named similarly to another recurring superboss called Omega, the two are distinct: Omega Weapon is based on a Weapon creature introduced in Final Fantasy VII, whereas Omega is a war machine that often has interdimensional properties.“ Besides, even if it was shortened, it still wouldn’t make sense as there are enemies in the game with much longer names than Omega Weapon such as Adamantite Golem. Both Omega and Omega Weapon tend to have distinct characteristics. For instance, Omega is normally a quadruped like machine normally sporting a single eye and tends to be the enemy of Shinryu. While Omega Weapon tends to have a more demonic/beast like appearances and is almost always an evolved form of Ultima Weapon. In addition, when looking up the game appearances for both Omega and Omega Weapon, Omega appears in re-releases of FF1, FFIV: The After Years, FFV, FFXI, FFXII, FFXIII-2, FFXIV, and FFXV. Meanwhile, Omega Weapon only appears in re-releases of FFVI, FFVIII, FFX, and FFX-2.

[@jackconsidine2681]

GTG - Great job man. I am too doing an NSG Playthrough with the same conditions and this is definitely on my to-do list. This is an incredible achievement. I did think though... Seeing as Auron survives the whole battle, could you throw a chocobo feather and replace auto-haste with something to help him survive Nova?

[@jihoon4242]

You can definitely use a Chocobo Feather to avoid needing to farm items for Auto-Haste, but you won't be surviving Nova. Nova is considered "special damage", so neither Protect nor Shell work on it. The only defensive abilities that are outside of the physical-magical-special classifications are Cheer, Focus and Shield. Cheer doesn't affect Nova. Shield is not available to Auron. That only leaves Focus, which you can get (and are already using in this battle - it comes from Ultra NulAll), but that isn't nearly enough - Nova does around 8700 damage to Auron, which max-stacked Focus only reduces to around 5800. You can't get Auron's HP this high - even if you were to give him all four HP+??%s on his armor (ignoring that this removes the critical Auto-Phoenix) and a Stamina Tablet, this would only give him 3398 max HP.

Man I wonder how much time he spend to get all these items it is insane

Excellent battle. Loved the ending.

[@roberts3423]

I remember my friend was spending almost an hour killing this boss, when i came to him he died in a few hits from my celestial and sphere grid. I was like wtf, i don't remember it being this easy. They should have increased its hp to atleast 99.000.000 or something to make up for celestial and maxed out stats.

I always hated the design of that sword for Tidus. It looks like he's holding a slice of cheese

[@DavidSchrodinger]

Hey Garland, loving this challenge. It was pretty funny because, seeing all the FFX challenges on youtube I remember thinking to myself "well, I wonder how far someone could go with just no sphere grid and no summoning?" And then you started this challenge. Anyway, I wanted to ask you: are pretty much all of the area conquest bosses stronger than the final one? I figure species and original definitely are. I'm playing the game, and I'm keeping my stats as low as possible before each boss. I'm doing a no item (no healing items, no use items) run as well, and Rikku's mix is only limited to Grenade, Pineapple, Potato Masher, and Tallboy. All abilities and magic and summons are available (as I get further in) for strategic value, but lower stats, hp, and mp will take away most of the hax. And pretty much no one shares abilities. This is mostly supposed to be just for fun. But I don't want to accidently fight a boss stronger than another boss, find it near impossible, increase my stats/abilities for it (ever so slightly), and then end up finding the boss I should have been fighting a little too easy now. I'm particularly worried about that happening regarding BFA, Ultima weapon, and the monster area, and the dark aeons, etc. Where they all lie in relation to each other. The idea here is that nearly every boss I fight will be near super boss level. I even nerfed my base stats, and died like 30+ times to klikk until I got one extra RNG miss, which led to me being able to guard my way to an extra attack, and then just barely finish him off with a perfectly timed overdrive. I know, it's absolutely silly but I find it fun. Anyway, since you know the game way better than I do, I was wondering if you could give me a "which near-end-game-bosses-to-do-first" guide, or list. To make sure I don't overpower myself. And I could always just nerf my stats again, but then my sense of progression gets all messed up and it ruins some of the fun. =^p

[@gabrieldrake7926]

No sphere grid... How?

[@vanguardduelist]

I summoned yojimbo and he auto killed Omega for me. Really took the tension out of the fight. Lol

[@mrman6035]

Yojimbo could end any fight which tbh more summons should have instakills even bosses can't escape from.

[@jamiephilip79]

😂😂 I rarely use Yojimbo because he is to overpowered I would use Bahmaut instead 😂 but leaving all jokes I would rather use the spear grid but I wouldn't use any summons if I knew what I was doing

[@ladeeda9]

Yeahh but what fun is that lol

Why on one ever use lulu's overdrive when they did the NSG challenge?? Fire fury with trio of 9999 can deal more than 120K damage

[@xeliminator9632]

Because omega weapon absorbs every element.

[@waltercomunello121]

Every time Omega attacks, he vaporizes a party member (I mean, 8000+damage on a ~300HP character). Phoenix Downs just condense the vapour and brings the previous form back with immense pain and discomfort. I think this is one of the most complex Final Fantasy I've ever seen and/or tried. I couldn't go past the Plain of Thunders or what are they called. Is it just me or Omega giggles after killing everyone with Nova?

[@thunderolightning6607]

Good job dude,what a class game.

[@nivellemendiola5039]

i miss this game so much

He died of boredom let's be honest haha. Just kidding. Amazing. This is like those SL1 runs in Dark Souls.
