So this Penance isn't in the regular Final Fantasy X?
I didn't even really know about an internation version until this post. Might have to pick this up. Only played through X once and after I'm done galavanting around in 12 I was planning to play it again. Is this just a Japanese version or European or can it be played normally on an American ps2? I really just don't know anything about it.

Well since I don't have the international version of FFX I wouldn't know about the dark aeons, but FFX was a pushover compared to some of the bosses in FFIX. Plus there a few monsters in IX that were harder than any boss in FFX. Such as a little mirror monster thing that would reflect your attacks until broken. Not to mention he would cast death or stop every minute. But back to bosses, Deathguise wasn't to terribly tough but Kuja and Gaia (last boss) were definatly not easy. If not planned right or not done the right amount of damage he/she (can't tell gender -.-) would wipe you out with its novas. But when I did beat him he didn't take long. The last boss was definatly a tough one. Since you did start at 1hp and he would kill at least one character off in the beginning. But with 80+ characters and some luck he wasn't too tough. Although he did cast his spell where he would bring you down to 1hp when I had like 1hp. Which was pretty funny but life saving if at that health.

semour on mountain was hardest lol

Okay...

Anything pre-FFVII won't be mentioned as most people won't know what I'm talking about. But for those who know, FFV... final boss... enough said.

In FFVII, the Emerald and Ruby weapons were tough. Ruby could be beaten easily with a combination of Hades and Hero items, as long as you kill off two of your party members pre-fight. Emerald was a bit trickier... you had to use less than 9 Materia per person. Still fairly easy if you know what you're doing... just cast Big Guard off of an Enemy Skill Materia and then use KOTR with W-Summon while the other two party members use Mime. The Limit Breaks are quite useful as well because if your party is maxed out their Limit Breaks will do massive amounts of damage. All in all, the Weapons were "difficult", but not impossible.

In FFVIII, Ultemecia was a cake walk. All you do is get the Laguna card, transform it into 100 Heroes, and voila. Cake.

In FFIX, X, and X-2 there isn't a boss worth mentioning. -.- Nine was too easy, ten was too easy to just train and whoop [spoiler=don't read if you don't wanna know] Jecht's ass, [/spoiler] and X-2 was... girly. I beat Vegnagun while eating a thing of Oreos.

To look for the hardest boss, you have to look to FFXII. It's long, drawn out, underdeveloped, and tends to become monotonous. However, the difficulty of this game makes it as annoying for FF noobs as it does make it the only reason to buy it for FF buffs. The final boss is fairly difficult, but if you've leveled your whole party and not just three characters, like many people do, he's really not too bad. The hardest boss is actually very difficult to even get to, and if you don't have a walkthrough odds are you won't even see him. He's called Yiazmat and he's the final elite hunt. He's level 73 with over 50 million HP. At level 99 with a complete license board, this fight will take well over an hour... closer to two if you didn't level your characters previously. I'm not going to go into his attacks, or the way to beat him. It would take much more time than I have before I go to my tax appointment. But yeah, he's definately the hardest boss in any Final Fantasy. If you disagree, feel free to PM me and I'll prove you wrong with any statistics you need.

I am the Final Fantasy nerd.

Oh, and honorable mention goes to the Chrono Cross endgame. No, not the boss. Though he's nearly impossible, after you beat him two or three times he's not so hard anymore. No... I'm talking about getting all the characters.

ozma, emerald, ruby, omega

Ffx that tank thing in the tank

he was a bitch for me....

The only bosses I found hard was in FF8 with Omega Weapon and Ultimecia.. I never beat them 2 guys..

dark aeons in ff-x are f'ing hard

FF7 Ruby Weapon and Emerald were hard at first when i played it for the first time, but then i learned a trick on both.

emerald weapons ofc all u needed was the item so you could stay under water forever,

for the ruby weapon all u needed to do is kill off 2 of your characters and go fight him, once u joined revive both players, once u join with just 1 person his tentacles are already in the sand, then all u need to do is unload on him with all 3 characters, try it sometime it works like a charm.

I don't think there is a FF game where the final boss is the hardest enemy. There is always a secret boss that is the hardest. I beat emerald+ruby @ level 65.

The hardest? I have not gotten too far in FF12 but FF10's Penance was quite hard.

Watch this guy for some ideas about a FF nerd btw
