      Look around you humans, you’re not the only ones who beat those really hard bosses. Our world’s size is beyond belief.
      I’m glad mojo put Queen Larsa in one of the videos recently! Yet they likely haven’t fully researched Cave’s whole bullet hell franchise…
      It’s certainly easy that these might be their opinion on which is the hardest, so I won’t judge them for it. However, the facts themselves hides within the deepest reaches of gaming itself.
      As strange as I might sound to you all, I hold the answers to bosses beyond even these.
      Ever heard of bosses so absurdly insanely difficult that they were once thought of impossible over many years? There’s more out there than you can possibly imagine, especially in the games you might find in arcades. Dedication and determination like none other is required to stand up to some of the mysterious challengers I speak of, especially when you want to beat it without continues in a run.
      Now’s the time I share with you all a boss that really deserves number 1 across all top boss lists: Inbachi from the original Dodonpachi Saidaioujou (Made by Cave)
      This boss is a SECRET secret true last boss that’s remained unbeaten for over a decade straight in a full 1cc run so far since 2012. Not 1 person has beaten it in the full run yet although someone in particular is getting very close.
      To summon it, you need to do the following:
      Beat the whole game without dying once, without using a single bomb, getting all of the hidden bee collectibles in the game, have an absurdly high HIT counter, AND having a high enough hyper rank which increases the bullet speed depending on how high it is. All of those in 1 full 1cc run just to get it to appear.
      The fight itself, it’s best shown in video than in words, but I’ll try to explain it in some detail:
      Normally in bullet hell games the bullets move at manageable speeds yet the patterns can be REALLY dense. However this boss in particular has a very fast default bullet velocity no matter what you set it to and is incredibly dense regardless! A few attacks Inbachi has can even separate the strong from the weak meaning some attacks are easier faster and harder denser and vice versa. The 4th attack she has is just absurd, even a TAS could struggle to that attack due to the sheer density AND bullet speed the attack has. Inbachi even has a shield to your bombs and hypers if you use them, even enraging in the process speeding up the bullet velocity even more! The final phase literally tells you to die as you’ll somehow HAVE to endure through an endless barrage of an attack that stumped even champion shmup players for a decade straight with the limiting resources available!
      I know all of this is a lot to process, but take my word for some of the details mentioned here and you’ll soon see what I mean.

      @SteelerMan5 10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      He was relatively easy to kill in the newer edition that steam and PS4/5 uses. I got to the final area and fought the enemy that counters your attacks with virus breath. When three of my party members were virused, I grinded off enemies and was able to quickly grind to the high 90s with my set party. Literally took me an hour to do that. I also made a save before I did this grinding in order to keep it at a weaker level for the final boss. Ozma didn't stand a chance when I had one character each that can get hit by his Lvl techniques.
      If you don't want to grind, here is my recommendation since that's harder to do on the original PS1 version. Make sure one of your members doesn't absorb darkness. Three can absorb it if possible but AT LEAST ONE must not absorb it. Ozma is the only intelligent boss in that game who will not use a spell that doesn't work. This is why it's also nice to have one party member with a level multiple of 4 and 5 but try to make sure it's not both such as 60 being multiples of both. That way, Ozma will use Lvl 4 Holy and Lvl 5 Death. While insta death sucks, it's slow enough that you can technically ready up a quick revive on the same party member to quickly bring them back. Also, Ozma using these skills is much preferred to him using Mini , Curse (sorta like Bad Breath) or healing itself for 9999. You can also make a character immune to Holy (not absorb) that would get hit by Lvl 4 Holy and that means it's just a wasted attack but Lvl 4 holy isn't that painful unless you're really low leveled.
      Please do the Friendly Monsters sidequest. Doing so not only allows you to target Ozma with physical attacks, but it also makes him weak to Shadow. Not normally a big deal but he can use Doomsday which hits EVERYONE for massive shadow damage. Again, make sure at least one member of your party is immune but doesn't absorb this.
      For parties, I used Zidane, Steiner, Quina, and Amarant. Quina for Blue Magic, Steiner and Zidane (thievery anyone) for ridiculous damage, and Amarant for his monk abilities such as revive and chakra which restores a good bit of MP to characters plus Amarant isn't bad attacking either. Ozma sucked to fight my first time but became much easier. I'd still rank him as the most difficult bosses of the FFs I have beaten (4, 8, 9, 10, 12 zodiac, 15, and 16). Never completed 15 but I did beat the final boss then called it a day on that game lol.

    The Radiance from Hollow Knight should be on here. Just getting all the requirements to unlock it is ridiculously hard as you have to get through the White Palace level, which is undisputedly the hardest platforming level in the entire game! Then once you get to the damn thing, you find out the boss is a bonafide nightmare to go up against!
    She can cast multiple laser beams and spike bullet hell attacks at the same time, and at one point you have to dodge these attacks while on small platforms that you can easily fall off of! The Radiance killed me WAY more times and took me a good deal longer to beat than Malenia!
    And DON'T even get me started on the harder and faster Absolute Radiance version that you fight at the end of a 40 fight boss rush in another secret ending!

    If we talk about "Secret Bosses" in Elden Ring, I believe DRAGONLORD PLACIDUSAX would fit more in this description because the game does not actually tells you in a straight way what you need to do to access this boss. Malenia however, you can find her at the end of Elphael, Brace of the Haligtree and there's no block or side quest that needs to be done to unlock her.

    For Ozma, both meteor and curse can 1 shot your entire party with absolutely nothing you can do to stop it (and yes, he can use them extremely frequently if you are unlucky and sometimes begins the fight by casting Meteor before you can do anything.). Ozma also casts other problematic spells like death which can easily cause you to wipe after tanking a curse or meteor. Also, Ozma inflicts all kinds of annoying and problematic status effects as well like berserk. All of his offensive spells do very heavy damage as well. All around easily one of the hardest bosses in video games, very much deserving of a spot on this list.

    I don know if they are secret bosses, but the advanced class "gods" from Octopath Traveler were so hard. The Starseer gave me the most trouble. I know it isnt very popular, but M-DEUS from Tokyo Mirage Sessions was hard too. You have to pretty much have your party up to level 99 and all their weapons maxed out and moveset and abilities maxed out to have a chance.
    Also, the music while you're talking is kind of distracting.

  • @SorenDaein
    @SorenDaein 9 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Saying that "Culex" is a "hard secret boss" is a HUGE understatement. Half the difficulty is even finding said boss in the first place. The other half is in the fight itself since the bastard hits like a fucking tank unless you're properly equipped. There is a decent payoff of 244 EXP for taking him down, but that's only good if you haven't maxed out the levels on your party members yet. Best way to go into this fight is to have Mario equipped with the Lazy Shell weapon, the Super Suit, and the Attack Scarf while having Peach to heal and have her equipped with the Safety Ring so she doesn't get affected by a majority of the attacks so she can heal with either Bowser or Geno taking up the third spot. Which ever one you choose had better be equipped with their strongest weapon and armor as well as having a means to ward off status effects, such as the Safety Badge. Also bring plenty of Pick-Me-Ups, which is Super Mario RPG's equivalent to Phoenix Downs/Mega Phoenix, and some KeroKeroCola in case you exhaust Flower Points during the fight.

I talked about facing Deadshot in "Batman: Arkham Origins" and it's a lengthy description of the difficulties you have to face while fighting him. Trust me, in that game, he's a very hard side boss.
