Dumbest end of level boss
A counter to the best boss thread. What video game boss really let you down?
My nomination is the Rock Titan from Kingdom Hearts. He basically stands around while you swipe away and maybe attacks once per battle. No challenge at all, and a real letdown after the grueling fights to get to him.

Final boss for FFX....sorry a battle you cannot lose, might as well been a cinema scene.

I played that game up until meeting Wakka on Spira for the first time. I was upset that well over half of the time it took to get there consisted of cinematics.Ghost Rider wrote:Final boss for FFX....sorry a battle you cannot lose, might as well been a cinema scene.

The last opponent in the Mountain Clans campaing of Disciples II: The Dark Prophecy (the wyrm thing), it is supposed to be so though that you'll need to get some special item that will weaken it before it can be killed, the actualy states that there is no way of winning the fight with out the item. I succeeded in beating the damn wyrn fair and square with just my hero, without the item. Major dissapointment.

Pfft...Diablo wasn't much tougher in the expansion. He hit me three times with the fire ring and once with lightning when I got careless, but other than that he never touched me (though he did kill my shadow twice).Keevan_Colton wrote:Oh damn...those were meant to be bosses?Darth Pounder wrote:All of the bosses on Dungeon Siege.

Ganon from The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time.
He looks big, he looks bad, and he carries two swords that are huge even at Zelda standards. He even wields the Triforce of Power!
All this, and he's STILL patheticly easy. Anything in the game can hurt him (I enjoy taking him down with Deku Nuts) and he's way too slow. Somehow I think the Triforce isn't worth its hype...

The Dark King in Final Fantasy: Mystic Quest. Sure, it's a baby RPG. Sure, all the bosses are relatively easy, but casting three spells tops on him to kill him is just mad silly.

Try him at hell difficulty level in the expansion, unless you have a level 99 character with godly weapons he'll give you enough problems.The Dark wrote:Pfft...Diablo wasn't much tougher in the expansion.

Worst boss would be Necron from Final Fantasy IX, who just appears out of nowhere after penultimate battle, and has damn annoying music.
Ultrus from FF6(Or 3 stateside) You never get any freken XP and he has the most hell anoying attacks that do nothing but add status ailments to you charaters, then does a shit attack once a month that on avarage you dodge 30% of the time meaning most of the fight consits of three party memebers slowed/blinded/besezerked/confused and maybe silenced just for fun with number 4 trying to restore the rest

I nominate the Dark from Kings Field Ancient City, three slashes with the moonlight sword and he's down, doesn't even attack.

Nah, I could take him with my lvl 80 paladin. I had lvl 24 Conviction and... some attribute I forget, but it gave me about 2000 damage per hit, not including the fact that it was all elemental damage, and that my aura lowered all monsters resistances by 90% and their armor by 200%... and that I had +300% resist all.ArmorPierce wrote:you have a level 99 character with godly weapons he'll give you enough problems.
