I was going to say this exact thing. Its great for taking out the generators powering lights and other devices. Just spray water into the panels with ventilation louvres cut into them. Destroys them permanently and silently. I think it can do this to almost all electrical devices. Its definitely the best way to complete one of the first missions where you have to eliminate the enemy communications relays.
Wasn't there a funny use for it with squirting soldiers in the crotch? That MGSV will forever remain unfinished is one of the great tragedies of video game history.

One slight correction to what was said about the Water Pistol in MGS5. It is practically useless aside from in that fight and for shorting out communication equipment without raising suspicion/alert
It can short equipment, hold up people, put out fire barrels, distract enemies and GMP cost is nothing so its not completely useless if you know what youre doing
With KOTOR, Jedi players can simply use certain Light Side Force abilities to set the Jedi free, denying Malak the healing. You don’t have to be Dark Side to deny him that.
Nope still 2 and egg is Œuf not one egg, just egg. Also to make it a joke it would be "because one egg is un Œuf." Pronounced "an oof". Tl:dr Your pun sucks.
Made me laugh: "Cannot beat Elden Beast? Worry not friendo, you just need to beat the way harder Malenia, and then you'll be able to glitch the final boss"
Technically, the P5 Reaper actually has two exploits that makes it easier! If you just wanna grind, Flu Season is the thing, but if you actually wanna fight it, it's in your best interest to be ambushed by it... If you attack it normally, it gets 2 turns every turn, including 1 Mores, but if you get ambushed, the Reaper only ever get 1 move per turn! So by letting it ambush you, you effectivly halve the danger it poses...
The poo works on a few different bosses The melenia fight and the eldenbeast fight aren’t too difficult with godskin peeler at least 19 and make sure you have two blue flasks and enough fp for 5 activations before you need to refill It you can make it 25 it makes the fight faster If you have a hard time with melenia just use a strong two handed weapon and put blood loss on it
Maybe not a particularly hard boss to fight normally, but it's still a good example. In Elder Scrolls: Oblivion, the final boss of the Mage's Guild Questline is the necromancer Mannimarco. When you fight him he is impervious to damage from regular weapons so you have to use magic to defeat him. OR, the battle takes place in a cave, on a little island surrounded by water, and when the fight starts you can just jump into the water and he will jump in after you and drown within seconds. Just take some water breathing potions with you and you're good to go.
I think you misunderstand the end of silent hill. Ever since I learned of that trick, I thought it was a genius form of story telling. Silent Hill isnot so much a physical place as it is the manifestation of the main character's psyche. It is a game where you are in search of atonement, not trying to beat up enemies. And when you take in account who the final boss is supposed to represent and what you're atoning for, don't you think going and facing it without weapons has an entirely different meaning than killing it?
The final boss is Alessa Gillespie, the most common interpretation of the victory without ammunition is that Alessa regain control of his body against the Incubus posession in the moment she does not see Harry as a danger and let him go killing herself with the Incubus and giving his other half of the soul to Harry to live another life (Heather/Cheryl). Why this interpretation? Cuz that victory without ammunition works in the cult god perfect form, and his corrupted form by Aglaophotis, Even You dont need to drop your ammunition and you can just run and evade the sparks all the way without simulating shoots until the scene shows up. In both cases, she Will save harry's life (it's most evident for the Harry diaries of silent hill 3, and the continues attempts of the half of the Alessa soul trapped in silent hill to keep away Heather for the Town)
@@natben6099 i was talking about sh1 and 3, that games are all about Alessa psique really, and that final was, like i mentioned, a manifestation of Alessa taking control of her power to save Harry (and Heather)
Wulong final boss is exactly that. Game is pretty fun with 2 or 3 bosses that make you wonder how they made the Final Cut. It’s really annoying, and to the try hard that commented boo hoo…. Do better. You are a horrible person
Almost 40 years ago, when Double Dragon arrived in arcades, my brother and I discovered a trick. The backwards elbow smash worked every time. With two quarters we beat the entire game using the same move.
Them removing the Flu is such a Horrible decision. It's hilarious, it's hidden, and you'd have a rough time figuring it out, not to mention, who'd be dumb enough to Want to face The Reaper? It is one of those occasions where a bug should've been a feature, and the devs should've embraced it.
One thing I have always loved about this channel is that they show exactly what they are talking about. A lot of channels tend to just use random generic clips of games that don't match the context of the vid.
so happy that after all these years gameranx is still around and still making the same kind of videos that we love them for. thank you jake and falcon and whoever else i’m forgetting and those behind the scenes for entertaining me during my childhood and into my adulthood as well.
If I recall properly, it's stated somehwere in game that he was a thief. The fishing rod you have at that point has a coral earring from the Zora child you save. He's basically looking at the pretty jewelry and getting distracted. I may be misremembering though.
One of my personnel favorites for this category is defeating FF15s Adamantoise with the soul stealing ring. I went to a friends house and they were showing off the game to me, end game stuff, ring included, no story spoilers. While he was showing me the game, he unlocked the boss fight and accepted it. At first it seemed like the fight would take an eternity, but then I asked if the ring would work. Now I knew nothing about the game prior so he looked at me like "Why didn't I think of that?" and for the rest of the fight we were laughing our asses off seeing the chunky boy shrivel down in a grotesque way, then POP, gone.
Imagine going out of your way to beat Malenia just to glitch your way around Elden Beast. That's like getting an engineering degree so you can build a robot to avoid having to do the dishes.
I personally found Malenia easier than Elden beast my 1st playthrough I got her in 4 tries (I didn't realize using the blasphemus blade was considered cheating lol) Whereas the final boss took me DAYS 😭😭 There's also NG plus
@@Mgranadosv Malenia took me ten hours of pure RNG of just hoping she doesn't decide she wants to screw me with an unavoidable Waterfowl Dance to the face. Beat Elden Beast on my first try. It was a stupidly easy and underwhelming boss.
When I was a kid I beat the final boss of the original Star Wars: Dark Forces by hiding in a vent. He had terrible AI and his projectiles spawned at head height, so if you ran away and ducked in a hole he'd run after you as far as the hole and just stay there shooting the wall above it at point blank range. You could unload into his legs without getting hit and he'd just stand there taking it until he keeled over. Also, you can infamously cheese lots of Skyrim bosses by just repeatedly beating on them for ages using the Windshear sword, which has a guaranteed stagger effect, meaning they can't fight back or run away, and just sit there slowly taking damage.
3D games, especially older ones, had a surprisingly large amount of "you can hit them, but they can't hit you" spots in boss battles. Or spots where the boss AI just breaks/gets stuck on one attack/etc for no apparent reason. And that's just the ones I stumbled into myself. I bet if the internet had been more of a thing back then, we'd all have learned about, and therefore used, way more such exploits.
@@Alloveck Absolutely. Modern games are extensively play tested, then fixed when people notice bugs. Game developers in the 90's didn't have that option. The version that shipped WAS the game.
KOTOR, I found the best thing to do was to not level up at all until you get Jedi powers. It makes Taris harder and means you probably won’t get Bendak’s blaster but you are much better off with the added force abilities.
You can beat Bendak at level 4 with enough grenades if you move so he can't do the same to you (and he whiffs enough of his blaster shots in the meantime). Sixteen levels of Jedi is enough to get all the best powers.
Awesome video! But how does MGS Snakeeater's The End boss fight not make it? You save the game & leave. Come back in 7 days or change the clock on the console, viola... dead boss.
in uncharted 2 boss fight, you can hang on a platform near a sap bulge (the blue thing when shot explodes and does damage to the boss), and the boss will stay around, trying to attack you. then you just wait for the bulge to regrow, shoot it when the boss is near, rinse repeat, doing it all while hanging there.
First encounter with the Mimic Tear in Elden Ring learning you could un-equip all your gear, walk through the fog and let it take shape, then RE-EQUIP your gear and demolish it in seconds while it tickles you with barehanded punches
Dude, the Fear in MGS3 is even easier to beat than using that method: you can speedrun his sorry as. Just get him on the ground and stun him with a stun grenade, then light him up with full auto while he's stunned. His stamina meter falls faster when he's stunned and being assaulted at the same time; the fight will be over in less than a minute, just as soon as you mag dump him. This method is on TH-cam too, so you don't need to take my word for it. Edit: Because this method drains his stamina and not his health, you can get his camo really easy at the end of the fight, cause that's the requirement for all boss camo in the game.
In Ultima 7: the Black Gate, there are way more interactive items than necessary. You can bake bread, paint portraits, grow crops. And babies make dirty diapers, which if thrown at enemies creates a fear effect. *ALL enemies,* even dragons.
I accidentally killed my friend's Consort Radahn by loading the area before the host. We got about halfway up the stairs then the boss spawned and the floor didn't.
Honorable mention: Master Gee the Invincible from the Borderlands 2 DLC/Captain Scarlett and Her Pirate's Booty You lure him towards you with singularity grenades and then crush him by opening up a gate. (Actually, it's been a long time so that's basically the gist of it.)
FF7 Gi Nattak super effective to Phoenix Down. The item that revives a dead party member is the same thing that kills and apparently it's not the only boss in the FF franchise that's affected by the pesky phoenix down.I honestly think it's hysterical that a small item can be effective against an annoying boss fight.
Second encounter with Evrae in FFX is also easily killed this way, and that one is a prticularly nasty surprise fight because it occurs underwater and Evrae can petrify your characters. Getting petrified underwater equals instantly shattering so no way to counteract it with a Soft. Normally, you're meant to just run away and escape the area.
Very surprised the Two Worlds speedrun strat isn't on here. You can literally start the game and get a bunch of villagers to jump the main boss and beat the game in a couple of minutes.
You really shouldn't forget Kingdom Hearts 2 Final mix against Lingering Will. You can unequip all air and ground combo extenders, unequip the unique finishers you obtain from through the game, equip Negative Combo, equip Fenrir keychain so that your first attack is a finisher and you can stun lock Lingering will with the default jumping finisher until you defeat him. Easiest way to beat an extremely hard boss.
I've recently played through Aragami. Its a brilliant stealth game. It's not really designed for boss fights though. The final fight was dragging on until i realised you could sit on a tiny platform under one particular pillar and wait for the boss to eventually jump to it. She couldn't see where I was and you just wait for her to jump on top and whack her then repeat until you trigger the final stage. After running around for half an hour not really knowing what I was supposed to do i killed her in under five minutes. Most of that was just waiting for her to jump there.
How dare you call the water pistol useless, it's great for stunning enemies without alerting them, And it's also great for short-circuiting electronics in a way that doesn't alert the entire base...
Not a final boss, but there's a rancor in the caves beneath Koboh's surface. Rancors of course can be challenging even on Padawan difficulty, but there's a trick (which I used to bet my brother £5) to beat it on Jedi Master difficulty. All you need is the claymore version of the lightsaber, and that one shortest column. Aggro the rancor, run like hell, and stand on the column. Then simply heavy attack it until dead, as the rancor is just taller than the column, but not enough to hit you.
Man, this brought back memories and got me thinking about beating Ruby in FF VII. You needed specific material, but once you got the pattern of KOTR, hades, and a megaelixer with your remaining two party members with the W summon for the KOTR and hades to stun Ruby, it was 20 min of the easiest boss fight.
the dung pie strat is way less attractive when you take into account that getting them in the first place requires either beating the capra demon in the first place, or skipping to blight town to farm the trolls (which is arguably more annoying than learning how to beat capra normally)
You say "skipping to Blighttown" as if you can't literally run there in 20 seconds from the beginning of Firelink. 100% of players choose the Master Key, & the Trolls are right in the tunnel BEFORE you even get to Blighttown. They also have a 90% drop rate for Dung Pies. Don't make it sound harder than it is because it's one of the quickest & easiest items to farm.
i think the ganondorf one might also have been inspired by the "link, hyrule is being taken over by a king of evil possessed by an ancient malicious GOD! WHY ARE YOU FISHING?!" bit that's gone around for a while
I don't know why everyone says Godskin Duo is hard. I was hearing everyone say it was the worst fight in the game, but when I got there, I was like, "that's it?" Nevermind that sleep makes it a joke of a fight, they do in fact take turns fighting you. You can even see it in the footage here with skinny boy standing around while they're wailing on big boy. And with the amount of Godskins you've fought up until that point, you should have more than enough experience with them.
In Dead Rising, the nerf pellets would NOT get torn apart on impact; they would never get close to the helicopter blades to begin with. The amount of downdraft from those propellers is enough to lift a 1,000+ lb helicopter into the sky for crying out loud.
The MGS5 water pistol, is actually unironically the most useful weapon in the game. You can hold up soldiers with it (back or front), destroy radios and radars silently, and has infinite ammo. I never leave motherbase without it.
Wow, I thought I was one of the only ones that thought that. Most will say Ocarina of Time or Majora's Mask. I played Twilight Princess in 2006 on the Gamecube. I was 22 at the time and absolutely loved it! One of the most heart wrenching endings I've ever encountered in a video game. I stupidly sold it and my Gamecube off years ago. But to this day I still think about buying a another Gamecube just to play it.
@tylerwilliams6022 there's actually a ton of people who love twilight princess. It's in my top 3 with OoT (more nostalgia than anything) and wind waker
Considering the large number of soulsborn bosses that can be killed just by luring them onto a precipice (at least one per game), one has to start wondering if the arenas they're fought on were deliberately designed to include falls not only to catch overenthusiastic dodgers who lack situational awareness, but also having in mind that, possibly, some players might just push or lure a boss onto that very same dodgers' trap...
In Cyberpunk 2077, if you use Cripple Movement on cyberpsychos, you can just walk right up to them, grab them, and choke them out. Preem! EDIT: I know they aren't the "hardest" bosses, but where else am I gonna put this comment?
The first time I tried Cyberpunk I went after the cyberpsychos and they just destroyed me. My second playthrough I waited until I was leveled up a bit and was able to kick their asses no problem. So it really depends on when you decide to fight them, and your tip really is useful. Great game too. Maybe one of my GOAT’s. Especially the Phantom Liberty dlc.
While yes, the cheese of dragging Sarevok out of the arena is hilarious, it does bear mentioning the universal cheese. Barrelmancy. Load up on barrels of smokepowder, firewine, and oil, then light them up to obliterate whatever's in the area.
Fun fact! Ganondorf is distracted by the fishing rod in Wind Waker too! I think there are a few other games where he is made "weaker" or has a "weakness" to some weird item in several other games, and they were clearly put in there on purpose.
WW doesn't have a fishing rod and I don't remember if there's an item in WW that distracts Ganon. I think you're talking about the net against Demise in SS. Someone correct me if I'm wrong about either thing.
The same trick for DoH also works on Gyoubu, the first boss you fight in that same arena. It's harder to pull off, because you can't quite lock him in a corder like you can with DoH, but if you pull off the jump up that tower and over to the wall quickly, you can continue on and make him run off the cliff too. In Dark Souls 1, the final boss can be parried (on the sword attacks, not on the stomp and grab) and takes extra damage from Occult weapons. Get a big bonk with Occult upgrade, or if you have a high-int build with at least 16 dex use Velka's Rapier, learn to parry and laugh in his face.
With #4 i remember doing jump attacks. That was how i beat him. The timing had to be perfect but it worked. Kudos to Gameranx for even mentioned/remembering some of these old games and then on top of that getting footage from those games.
I used to play a flash game called Sonny. In one of the games there’s a boss with a spell that reverses damage and healing. So you just use your most powerful healing on him and the fight becomes so easy.
Was really hoping to see the Metal Gear Solid 1 battle with Psycho Mantis on here - he reads your mind and beats your ass, but if you unplug your controller from port 1 and move to port 2, he admits he can’t read you and you can now stomp him relatively easily. Pretty cool idea, always loved that they did this
This video should have excluded exploits. I wanted to see a list of ‘dumb ways that devs intentionally designed bosses to be defeated”, not “here are tricks the devs didn’t think of that you can do to make a boss fight easy”
Most of these aren't exploits, exploits like glitches are unintended. Most of these were definitely intended, I'd say maybe 7 of em were exploits if that
Lol for me with some of the bosses for Baldur's Gate, I cheesed the fight the same way with two different bosses. For when you fight Balthazar in the temple of Shar, I just pushed him off a cliff using Gale's thunder Wave spell. Worked like a charm. xD. I did the same for Cazador when I fought him as well. Unfortunately though, Larian studios patched out that gimmick so I can't use it anymore. But it was nice to just push the bastard of a ledge xD.
my personal favorite lmao, "Can't beat a sniper? just airdrop a giant crate onto her fuckin face" XD figured that one out on my own before watching any videos and thought "there's no way that just fuckin worked"
For Borderlands 2, I was playing solo and found the final boss, and I died once so I respawned as the boss was still flying around. The respawn was outside of the boss arena and high up from the ground below, and I realized I could shoot at the head of the boss when it would fly to the top of the arena area invisible barrier. It was really time consuming but I eventually got down its health lol (It's been a while so I forgot how the boss battle goes but I do remember cheesing that fight)
I've never found the final boss in Borderlands 2 to be particularly difficult. The long fight through mobs leading up to the boss has always been my point of frustration.
@@Durwood71 at the time I was struggling with it, idk why lol so I just chose to do that. And I don't like waves of mobs either. Some games drag it out too long with em
The Elden Beast is honestly one of the easiest bosses in the game, especially now that you can use Torrent, you really don't need to Waterfowl Dance your way to an unpatched glitch.
@@cypher4528 don't you need to beat malaria in order to get the waterflow dance ? it's been a while so I don't recall, but if that's the case I don't think radagon and elden beast is really an issue. except maybe in subsequent playtrhough
@@papafouplays2991 Yeah the Hand of Malenia is the Remembrance weapon you get from Malenia, which... It's another good point that, if you're able to reach and defeat Malenia, you can probably take Radagon and EB without resorting to glitches, hah.
Ehh the Elden beast is entirely rng based as to how much difficulty you will experience, he’s just annoying and poorly designed. Torrent must make the fight a non Factor now though, I have tried personally yet. Also you will never have water fowl dance before you beat Elden beast anyway
@@EuclideanAltrue, it took me 3,4 tries to beat Radagon but when I reached the Elden Beast with only 2 flasks left I defeated it on my first try. The torrent literally made it easier to dodge most of it's attack and track it😆😆.(Btw, I was using a guts build for my first playthrough so I felt a bit easier with a strength build)
I broke Sarevok in a hilarious fashion. We were in the throne room and I had taken out his main helpers. Towards the end of the fight I cast one of the dominate spells on him so he technically was an ally. I then finished the fight leaving just him. He was still in an allied state, so he just stood there swaying for a bit and then had a "what was I doing over here again" moment before turning and sauntering back over to his throne with his projections following him. Then, I was able to waltz into the side room to free Valeria. The best part was that Sarevok can only see directly in front of him so I was able to sneak out, go take a long rest, and return to absolutely decimate him with my fully replenished spells.
You missed one. The undead dragon boss at the end of disk 1 in the original Final Fantasy 7. He's pretty tough to beat if you are not leveled up pretty high, but you can defeat him with 1 item. Phenix Down revives dead characters and the dragon in undead. So, all you have to do is use 1 Phenix Down on him and he's dead for good.
Hey now encountering the reaper early and getting womped is a thing, and then coming back later thinking you can handle this guy just for him to call out sick 3 turns deep is a good feeling
Cada vez mejor este podcast, y no voy a tolerar que digan que producción se equivocó con la tela/estilo Denim, ella se refirió a Deming, el padre de la Calidad como la conocemos hoy. Los quiero
Taylew actually has very Low HP which is why he’s so good to cheese with. His low hp lets you easily top up his health. It’s his super high defense from the front that keeps him up.
Wow, I knever knew about the Waterfoul Dance glitch in Elden Ring. I indeed was desperate so I had to resort to some glitch where you cast random spells, equip a specific item and press some buttons and it somehow makes you invincible to holy damage and thus the final boss fight becomes a walk in the park (I believe this has been patched since)
If anything if I was a developer I'd find it funny if they found a way to do something like that. As long as it doesn't break the game who cares? If it works it works
Great video, just a quick note though you gotta turn down the wet mix on that reverb. It's very weird to hear you in a cave when it's not necessary hahaha
oh i totally figured out the yojimbo/zanmato trick on my own and i'm sure a lot of other people have, too. i have never tried to grind enough to reach the level needed to beat the dark aeons the "right" way because there's really no point aside from this one optional thing and the monster arena. yeah, getting yojimbo is a bit of a setup because you have to find him in an optional area/dungeon and then pay him to come with you (and trick him into making himself affordable) but it's not exactly a secret, and if you're trying to get all the aeons, you're gonna do this anyway. and then the first time i tried to go back to besaid and came up against dark valefor and got totally squashed, i was like hmm, what if i use zanmato, and voila. that being said, i've found it's easier to get him to do it on certain dark aeons than others. i always have a really hard time getting him to zanmato the dark magus sisters.
Im surprise that Draygon, from Super Metroid is not here, you just need to him to grab you and graple on the electrified things on the side of the arena
Honest feedback: I love this channel but I have to say could you please bring your lists back to 10 instead of 20. These 20 game lists are getting way too long and I end up checking out about half-way through.
To be honest, I killed the Capra Demon with the poop throwing method, because that fight was so disgustingly unfair. And it's quite early game when your character is still very weak.
My Fav is Metal Gear solid 3 - Killing the End while he was in the Wheel chair well before the actual fight. 1 Shot dead vs running around and looking for the shine of his scope and shotting him multiple times.
The best way to utilize sleep in the Godskin Duo fight, is to only put one to sleep, and fight the other by itself. Otherwise once you hit them, they wake up and you’re wasting sleep pots. If you put one to sleep and don’t hit it with any attacks, they stay asleep for like half of the fight and you only have to worry about whichever one you kept awake. Also be weary if you use summons, this method doesn’t work very well since they might agro on to the one that is sleeping and wake it up, so it’s best to do it solo or with a friend.
The Double Dragon worked differently as I cn remember. You climb down, the boss chases you. You kick him off the ladder and then climb up. When you're up, the boss climbs up but you can kick him off it and falls down. He will climb up again , kick him off. Rinse and repeat.
Any time you find a goofy way of defeating a boss in a Hideo Kojima game, you know it is 100% deliberate.

METAL GEAR SOLID, the water pistol is one of the handiest weapons in it, you can destroy enemies radios w/ it. And it's FREE to use.

You can spray puddles of water that will draw the parasite soldiers to it as they are drawn to water. It has so many uses, champ.

Came to the comments for this specifically lmao
that's how I beat him, after I gave up on the regular way
Technically, the P5 Reaper actually has two exploits that makes it easier!
If you just wanna grind, Flu Season is the thing, but if you actually wanna fight it, it's in your best interest to be ambushed by it... If you attack it normally, it gets 2 turns every turn, including 1 Mores, but if you get ambushed, the Reaper only ever get 1 move per turn!
So by letting it ambush you, you effectivly halve the danger it poses...
That is oddly counterintuitive
Can we all take a minute to appreciate Gameranx for using the Poop solution from Dark Souls as “number two”…?
That's just a coincidence lol😂😂
@@Leafsanin9221I like to think Jake is playing 4D chess while we’re all playing chutes and ladders. 😂

The poo works on a few different bosses
The melenia fight and the eldenbeast fight aren’t too difficult with godskin peeler at least 19 and make sure you have two blue flasks and enough fp for 5 activations before you need to refill
It you can make it 25 it makes the fight faster
If you have a hard time with melenia just use a strong two handed weapon and put blood loss on it
Well, shit.
5:11 felt like you had more to say about Salazar and the chickens but the editor was not having that. Lol
Maybe not a particularly hard boss to fight normally, but it's still a good example. In Elder Scrolls: Oblivion, the final boss of the Mage's Guild Questline is the necromancer Mannimarco. When you fight him he is impervious to damage from regular weapons so you have to use magic to defeat him. OR, the battle takes place in a cave, on a little island surrounded by water, and when the fight starts you can just jump into the water and he will jump in after you and drown within seconds. Just take some water breathing potions with you and you're good to go.
lmao wish i'd known that years ago
I think you misunderstand the end of silent hill. Ever since I learned of that trick, I thought it was a genius form of story telling.
Silent Hill isnot so much a physical place as it is the manifestation of the main character's psyche. It is a game where you are in search of atonement, not trying to beat up enemies. And when you take in account who the final boss is supposed to represent and what you're atoning for, don't you think going and facing it without weapons has an entirely different meaning than killing it?
The final boss is Alessa Gillespie, the most common interpretation of the victory without ammunition is that Alessa regain control of his body against the Incubus posession in the moment she does not see Harry as a danger and let him go killing herself with the Incubus and giving his other half of the soul to Harry to live another life (Heather/Cheryl).
Why this interpretation? Cuz that victory without ammunition works in the cult god perfect form, and his corrupted form by Aglaophotis, Even You dont need to drop your ammunition and you can just run and evade the sparks all the way without simulating shoots until the scene shows up. In both cases, she Will save harry's life (it's most evident for the Harry diaries of silent hill 3, and the continues attempts of the half of the Alessa soul trapped in silent hill to keep away Heather for the Town)
That whole "main character's psyche" thing is only true in SH2. SH1/3/4 are different, haha
@@mathiasirrazabal2763 in that case, it's a goid thing that both they and i were talking about sh2, right?
@@natben6099 i was talking about sh1 and 3, that games are all about Alessa psique really, and that final was, like i mentioned, a manifestation of Alessa taking control of her power to save Harry (and Heather)
I hate it when I get to a boss and it’s just too hard so you stop playing the game. Even when the rest of the games still really fun
@@jasondavie3027 Got a tough guy

Wulong final boss is exactly that. Game is pretty fun with 2 or 3 bosses that make you wonder how they made the Final Cut. It’s really annoying, and to the try hard that commented boo hoo…. Do better. You are a horrible person
never retreat never surrender. That is the spartan way
Last boss for MGS1 for me.
Almost 40 years ago, when Double Dragon arrived in arcades, my brother and I discovered a trick. The backwards elbow smash worked every time. With two quarters we beat the entire game using the same move.
I still can't believe that Gameranx have DOUBLED their workload producing longer videos just to please YT algorithm.
Them removing the Flu is such a Horrible decision.
It's hilarious, it's hidden, and you'd have a rough time figuring it out, not to mention, who'd be dumb enough to Want to face The Reaper?
It is one of those occasions where a bug should've been a feature, and the devs should've embraced it.
One thing I have always loved about this channel is that they show exactly what they are talking about. A lot of channels tend to just use random generic clips of games that don't match the context of the vid.
so happy that after all these years gameranx is still around and still making the same kind of videos that we love them for. thank you jake and falcon and whoever else i’m forgetting and those behind the scenes for entertaining me during my childhood and into my adulthood as well.
Ganondorf just looks at the fishing rod hook like "what is this kid doing does he even know how a fight is supposed to work?"
If I recall properly, it's stated somehwere in game that he was a thief. The fishing rod you have at that point has a coral earring from the Zora child you save. He's basically looking at the pretty jewelry and getting distracted. I may be misremembering though.
Why Jake got reverb on his voice in this video? he recording in a cave?
Not sure maybe he’s on the road or something. Regardless it was a good vid
Jake's recording it in a fire escape

One of my personnel favorites for this category is defeating FF15s Adamantoise with the soul stealing ring. I went to a friends house and they were showing off the game to me, end game stuff, ring included, no story spoilers. While he was showing me the game, he unlocked the boss fight and accepted it. At first it seemed like the fight would take an eternity, but then I asked if the ring would work. Now I knew nothing about the game prior so he looked at me like "Why didn't I think of that?" and for the rest of the fight we were laughing our asses off seeing the chunky boy shrivel down in a grotesque way, then POP, gone.
Imagine going out of your way to beat Malenia just to glitch your way around Elden Beast. That's like getting an engineering degree so you can build a robot to avoid having to do the dishes.
I'd say the guy that invented the dishwashing machine is probably doing very well after his invention.
Meh, cheesing malenia via stunlock is easier than throwing yourself at the elden beast/radagon fight
I personally found Malenia easier than Elden beast my 1st playthrough I got her in 4 tries (I didn't realize using the blasphemus blade was considered cheating lol) Whereas the final boss took me DAYS 😭😭 There's also NG plus
I suffered the Elden Beast much more than Malenia on my first playtrhough. She took like 6 tries. The Elden Beast took over 30
@@Mgranadosv Malenia took me ten hours of pure RNG of just hoping she doesn't decide she wants to screw me with an unavoidable Waterfowl Dance to the face. Beat Elden Beast on my first try. It was a stupidly easy and underwhelming boss.
"The reaper, dying by the flu? You can't really make that up."
HG Wells: Hold my manuscript.
not in royal though, they patched it
Throwing solar grenades at his feet and watching Atheon walk off a cliff in D1 is the correct answer
When I was a kid I beat the final boss of the original Star Wars: Dark Forces by hiding in a vent. He had terrible AI and his projectiles spawned at head height, so if you ran away and ducked in a hole he'd run after you as far as the hole and just stay there shooting the wall above it at point blank range. You could unload into his legs without getting hit and he'd just stand there taking it until he keeled over.
Also, you can infamously cheese lots of Skyrim bosses by just repeatedly beating on them for ages using the Windshear sword, which has a guaranteed stagger effect, meaning they can't fight back or run away, and just sit there slowly taking damage.
3D games, especially older ones, had a surprisingly large amount of "you can hit them, but they can't hit you" spots in boss battles. Or spots where the boss AI just breaks/gets stuck on one attack/etc for no apparent reason. And that's just the ones I stumbled into myself. I bet if the internet had been more of a thing back then, we'd all have learned about, and therefore used, way more such exploits.
@@Alloveck Absolutely. Modern games are extensively play tested, then fixed when people notice bugs. Game developers in the 90's didn't have that option. The version that shipped WAS the game.
KOTOR, I found the best thing to do was to not level up at all until you get Jedi powers. It makes Taris harder and means you probably won’t get Bendak’s blaster but you are much better off with the added force abilities.
You can beat Bendak at level 4 with enough grenades if you move so he can't do the same to you (and he whiffs enough of his blaster shots in the meantime). Sixteen levels of Jedi is enough to get all the best powers.
Awesome video! But how does MGS Snakeeater's The End boss fight not make it? You save the game & leave. Come back in 7 days or change the clock on the console, viola... dead boss.
As I understand it, using this strategy makes a later boss fight significantly harder than it otherwise would be.
@@Durwood71 Oh wait does it really? I guess I never noticed that. Still a hilarious technique to skip a boss fight.
Because literally every single person on the planet knows about that already

in uncharted 2 boss fight, you can hang on a platform near a sap bulge (the blue thing when shot explodes and does damage to the boss), and the boss will stay around, trying to attack you. then you just wait for the bulge to regrow, shoot it when the boss is near, rinse repeat, doing it all while hanging there.
Seriously? That game is fantastic but my god the final boss is a bunch of bs. Imma have to try this now
OMG, yes! The Double Dragon one was my fave to pull off with friends. It's wild how much I used to be into beat em up games.
First encounter with the Mimic Tear in Elden Ring learning you could un-equip all your gear, walk through the fog and let it take shape, then RE-EQUIP your gear and demolish it in seconds while it tickles you with barehanded punches
Dude, the Fear in MGS3 is even easier to beat than using that method: you can speedrun his sorry as.
Just get him on the ground and stun him with a stun grenade, then light him up with full auto while he's stunned. His stamina meter falls faster when he's stunned and being assaulted at the same time; the fight will be over in less than a minute, just as soon as you mag dump him.
This method is on TH-cam too, so you don't need to take my word for it.
Edit: Because this method drains his stamina and not his health, you can get his camo really easy at the end of the fight, cause that's the requirement for all boss camo in the game.
In Ultima 7: the Black Gate, there are way more interactive items than necessary. You can bake bread, paint portraits, grow crops. And babies make dirty diapers, which if thrown at enemies creates a fear effect. *ALL enemies,* even dragons.
Make sense everyone is afraid of dirty diapers.
I accidentally killed my friend's Consort Radahn by loading the area before the host. We got about halfway up the stairs then the boss spawned and the floor didn't.
Honorable mention: Master Gee the Invincible from the Borderlands 2 DLC/Captain Scarlett and Her Pirate's Booty
You lure him towards you with singularity grenades and then crush him by opening up a gate. (Actually, it's been a long time so that's basically the gist of it.)
FF7 Gi Nattak super effective to Phoenix Down. The item that revives a dead party member is the same thing that kills and apparently it's not the only boss in the FF franchise that's affected by the pesky phoenix down.I honestly think it's hysterical that a small item can be effective against an annoying boss fight.
Second encounter with Evrae in FFX is also easily killed this way, and that one is a prticularly nasty surprise fight because it occurs underwater and Evrae can petrify your characters. Getting petrified underwater equals instantly shattering so no way to counteract it with a Soft. Normally, you're meant to just run away and escape the area.
@@azureskyblade1106 petrification is that bad of a handicap? I would be all kinds of pissed if that's how i lost
@@Wickedred413 only underwater. In normal combat you have until the enemy attacks the petrified character to cure it.

Unrelated, but that Godskin Duo soundtrack gives me LIFE
Very surprised the Two Worlds speedrun strat isn't on here. You can literally start the game and get a bunch of villagers to jump the main boss and beat the game in a couple of minutes.
Fun fact. Using the Power Glove accessory also makes defeating Dark Link a cakewalk.
You really shouldn't forget Kingdom Hearts 2 Final mix against Lingering Will. You can unequip all air and ground combo extenders, unequip the unique finishers you obtain from through the game, equip Negative Combo, equip Fenrir keychain so that your first attack is a finisher and you can stun lock Lingering will with the default jumping finisher until you defeat him. Easiest way to beat an extremely hard boss.
I've recently played through Aragami. Its a brilliant stealth game. It's not really designed for boss fights though. The final fight was dragging on until i realised you could sit on a tiny platform under one particular pillar and wait for the boss to eventually jump to it. She couldn't see where I was and you just wait for her to jump on top and whack her then repeat until you trigger the final stage. After running around for half an hour not really knowing what I was supposed to do i killed her in under five minutes. Most of that was just waiting for her to jump there.
How dare you call the water pistol useless, it's great for stunning enemies without alerting them, And it's also great for short-circuiting electronics in a way that doesn't alert the entire base...
Not a final boss, but there's a rancor in the caves beneath Koboh's surface. Rancors of course can be challenging even on Padawan difficulty, but there's a trick (which I used to bet my brother £5) to beat it on Jedi Master difficulty. All you need is the claymore version of the lightsaber, and that one shortest column. Aggro the rancor, run like hell, and stand on the column. Then simply heavy attack it until dead, as the rancor is just taller than the column, but not enough to hit you.
MGSV looks absolutely amazing to this day. What a masterpiece of a game.
Man, this brought back memories and got me thinking about beating Ruby in FF VII. You needed specific material, but once you got the pattern of KOTR, hades, and a megaelixer with your remaining two party members with the W summon for the KOTR and hades to stun Ruby, it was 20 min of the easiest boss fight.
“Cannot take screenshot”
That killed me 😂
the dung pie strat is way less attractive when you take into account that getting them in the first place requires either beating the capra demon in the first place, or skipping to blight town to farm the trolls (which is arguably more annoying than learning how to beat capra normally)
You say "skipping to Blighttown" as if you can't literally run there in 20 seconds from the beginning of Firelink. 100% of players choose the Master Key, & the Trolls are right in the tunnel BEFORE you even get to Blighttown. They also have a 90% drop rate for Dung Pies. Don't make it sound harder than it is because it's one of the quickest & easiest items to farm.
@@atomdecay another way to say it is that it's a (shitty) speedrun strat but useless to new players
i think the ganondorf one might also have been inspired by the "link, hyrule is being taken over by a king of evil possessed by an ancient malicious GOD! WHY ARE YOU FISHING?!" bit that's gone around for a while
I think encountering the reaper is Atlus's way of telling all persona 5 players we'll seek you out if you spend way to much times in mementos
I don't know why everyone says Godskin Duo is hard. I was hearing everyone say it was the worst fight in the game, but when I got there, I was like, "that's it?" Nevermind that sleep makes it a joke of a fight, they do in fact take turns fighting you. You can even see it in the footage here with skinny boy standing around while they're wailing on big boy. And with the amount of Godskins you've fought up until that point, you should have more than enough experience with them.
Knifing Krauser in the og re4 blew my mind as a kid. Always just assumed he was meant to be a bullet sponge lol
I know! I thought that was gonna be on the list!
In Dead Rising, the nerf pellets would NOT get torn apart on impact; they would never get close to the helicopter blades to begin with. The amount of downdraft from those propellers is enough to lift a 1,000+ lb helicopter into the sky for crying out loud.
It should be obligatory to sing the Great Mighty Poo song from Conker's Bad Fur Day when using the Dark Souls dung solution
The MGS5 water pistol, is actually unironically the most useful weapon in the game. You can hold up soldiers with it (back or front), destroy radios and radars silently, and has infinite ammo. I never leave motherbase without it.
Twilight Princess!!! My favorite Zelda game!!! Let's go!!! 😁
Wow, I thought I was one of the only ones that thought that. Most will say Ocarina of Time or Majora's Mask.
I played Twilight Princess in 2006 on the Gamecube. I was 22 at the time and absolutely loved it! One of the most heart wrenching endings I've ever encountered in a video game.
I stupidly sold it and my Gamecube off years ago. But to this day I still think about buying a another Gamecube just to play it.
@tylerwilliams6022 there's actually a ton of people who love twilight princess. It's in my top 3 with OoT (more nostalgia than anything) and wind waker
@@darknesswave100 Never got into Wind Waker, I just didn't like the design/graphics.
Probably because I don't care for Anime/Manga type stuff.
Considering the large number of soulsborn bosses that can be killed just by luring them onto a precipice (at least one per game), one has to start wondering if the arenas they're fought on were deliberately designed to include falls not only to catch overenthusiastic dodgers who lack situational awareness, but also having in mind that, possibly, some players might just push or lure a boss onto that very same dodgers' trap...
In Cyberpunk 2077, if you use Cripple Movement on cyberpsychos, you can just walk right up to them, grab them, and choke them out. Preem!
EDIT: I know they aren't the "hardest" bosses, but where else am I gonna put this comment?
I didn't think about that so you at least helped one guy.
Memory Loss also works, that's what I did lol.
Next playtrough im using this, thanks man!
This can be very helpfull early in the game for some Quick cash and xp
The first time I tried Cyberpunk I went after the cyberpsychos and they just destroyed me. My second playthrough I waited until I was leveled up a bit and was able to kick their asses no problem. So it really depends on when you decide to fight them, and your tip really is useful. Great game too. Maybe one of my GOAT’s. Especially the Phantom Liberty dlc.
While yes, the cheese of dragging Sarevok out of the arena is hilarious, it does bear mentioning the universal cheese. Barrelmancy. Load up on barrels of smokepowder, firewine, and oil, then light them up to obliterate whatever's in the area.
started the list strong instantly thought about persona
Fun fact! Ganondorf is distracted by the fishing rod in Wind Waker too! I think there are a few other games where he is made "weaker" or has a "weakness" to some weird item in several other games, and they were clearly put in there on purpose.
WW doesn't have a fishing rod and I don't remember if there's an item in WW that distracts Ganon. I think you're talking about the net against Demise in SS. Someone correct me if I'm wrong about either thing.
Gello, Jake!!
Hey
The same trick for DoH also works on Gyoubu, the first boss you fight in that same arena. It's harder to pull off, because you can't quite lock him in a corder like you can with DoH, but if you pull off the jump up that tower and over to the wall quickly, you can continue on and make him run off the cliff too.
In Dark Souls 1, the final boss can be parried (on the sword attacks, not on the stomp and grab) and takes extra damage from Occult weapons. Get a big bonk with Occult upgrade, or if you have a high-int build with at least 16 dex use Velka's Rapier, learn to parry and laugh in his face.
So Jake, what kind of pizza we got one the way this upcoming Friday?
With #4 i remember doing jump attacks. That was how i beat him. The timing had to be perfect but it worked. Kudos to Gameranx for even mentioned/remembering some of these old games and then on top of that getting footage from those games.
The Ends’ console time glitch.
I used to play a flash game called Sonny. In one of the games there’s a boss with a spell that reverses damage and healing. So you just use your most powerful healing on him and the fight becomes so easy.
Was it the Baron?
Was really hoping to see the Metal Gear Solid 1 battle with Psycho Mantis on here - he reads your mind and beats your ass, but if you unplug your controller from port 1 and move to port 2, he admits he can’t read you and you can now stomp him relatively easily. Pretty cool idea, always loved that they did this
i dont think that counts because thats what you're literally supposed to do
That's what the game wanted you to do, there's a codec call that tells you to do it. This list is about tactics that weren't supposed to be used.
I don't blame Gannon, if you've ever been hooked by a fish line, you why he's watching it.
This video should have excluded exploits. I wanted to see a list of ‘dumb ways that devs intentionally designed bosses to be defeated”, not “here are tricks the devs didn’t think of that you can do to make a boss fight easy”
Most of these aren't exploits, exploits like glitches are unintended. Most of these were definitely intended, I'd say maybe 7 of em were exploits if that
Lol for me with some of the bosses for Baldur's Gate, I cheesed the fight the same way with two different bosses.
For when you fight Balthazar in the temple of Shar, I just pushed him off a cliff using Gale's thunder Wave spell. Worked like a charm. xD.
I did the same for Cazador when I fought him as well. Unfortunately though, Larian studios patched out that gimmick so I can't use it anymore. But it was nice to just push the bastard of a ledge xD.
Quiet’s supply drop.
my personal favorite lmao, "Can't beat a sniper? just airdrop a giant crate onto her fuckin face" XD figured that one out on my own before watching any videos and thought "there's no way that just fuckin worked"
Satan: so...how did you die again?
Man on fire:...sigh...
2:25 damnit, gotta wait 😢
For Borderlands 2, I was playing solo and found the final boss, and I died once so I respawned as the boss was still flying around. The respawn was outside of the boss arena and high up from the ground below, and I realized I could shoot at the head of the boss when it would fly to the top of the arena area invisible barrier. It was really time consuming but I eventually got down its health lol
(It's been a while so I forgot how the boss battle goes but I do remember cheesing that fight)
I've never found the final boss in Borderlands 2 to be particularly difficult. The long fight through mobs leading up to the boss has always been my point of frustration.
@@Durwood71 at the time I was struggling with it, idk why lol so I just chose to do that.
And I don't like waves of mobs either. Some games drag it out too long with em
The Elden Beast is honestly one of the easiest bosses in the game, especially now that you can use Torrent, you really don't need to Waterfowl Dance your way to an unpatched glitch.
The problem isn't Elden Beast itself, it's the fact that you also have to fight Elden Beast controlling Radagon.
@@cypher4528 don't you need to beat malaria in order to get the waterflow dance ? it's been a while so I don't recall, but if that's the case I don't think radagon and elden beast is really an issue. except maybe in subsequent playtrhough
@@papafouplays2991 Yeah the Hand of Malenia is the Remembrance weapon you get from Malenia, which... It's another good point that, if you're able to reach and defeat Malenia, you can probably take Radagon and EB without resorting to glitches, hah.
Ehh the Elden beast is entirely rng based as to how much difficulty you will experience, he’s just annoying and poorly designed. Torrent must make the fight a non Factor now though, I have tried personally yet. Also you will never have water fowl dance before you beat Elden beast anyway
@@EuclideanAltrue, it took me 3,4 tries to beat Radagon but when I reached the Elden Beast with only 2 flasks left I defeated it on my first try. The torrent literally made it easier to dodge most of it's attack and track it😆😆.(Btw, I was using a guts build for my first playthrough so I felt a bit easier with a strength build)
I broke Sarevok in a hilarious fashion.
We were in the throne room and I had taken out his main helpers. Towards the end of the fight I cast one of the dominate spells on him so he technically was an ally. I then finished the fight leaving just him. He was still in an allied state, so he just stood there swaying for a bit and then had a "what was I doing over here again" moment before turning and sauntering back over to his throne with his projections following him.
Then, I was able to waltz into the side room to free Valeria.
The best part was that Sarevok can only see directly in front of him so I was able to sneak out, go take a long rest, and return to absolutely decimate him with my fully replenished spells.
Reverb Jake here with today's list.
You missed one. The undead dragon boss at the end of disk 1 in the original Final Fantasy 7. He's pretty tough to beat if you are not leveled up pretty high, but you can defeat him with 1 item. Phenix Down revives dead characters and the dragon in undead. So, all you have to do is use 1 Phenix Down on him and he's dead for good.
Don't you need 2? Since I think 1 will do half his health since it brings you back with half your health
9:25 - Please... Never use the term "Pea Shooter" when talking about water guns.
Hey now encountering the reaper early and getting womped is a thing, and then coming back later thinking you can handle this guy just for him to call out sick 3 turns deep is a good feeling

I actually found the reaper during the flu season 😂 and to my knowledge it's still in Royal
doesn't work on the reaper in royal. He's not affected by flu
Taylew actually has very Low HP which is why he’s so good to cheese with. His low hp lets you easily top up his health. It’s his super high defense from the front that keeps him up.
Jake why does it sound like you're recording this in a trash can
Wrong reverb, also noticed that😂
Wow, I knever knew about the Waterfoul Dance glitch in Elden Ring. I indeed was desperate so I had to resort to some glitch where you cast random spells, equip a specific item and press some buttons and it somehow makes you invincible to holy damage and thus the final boss fight becomes a walk in the park (I believe this has been patched since)
I hate when developers remove exploits. Unless it breaks the game, they add to the fun factor.
If anything if I was a developer I'd find it funny if they found a way to do something like that. As long as it doesn't break the game who cares? If it works it works
Great video, just a quick note though you gotta turn down the wet mix on that reverb. It's very weird to hear you in a cave when it's not necessary hahaha
I wonder if it's just a coincidence that the Capra demon's name is so close to the root etymology of poop, copro. That's so funny.
Look up the root etymology of goat...
oh i totally figured out the yojimbo/zanmato trick on my own and i'm sure a lot of other people have, too. i have never tried to grind enough to reach the level needed to beat the dark aeons the "right" way because there's really no point aside from this one optional thing and the monster arena. yeah, getting yojimbo is a bit of a setup because you have to find him in an optional area/dungeon and then pay him to come with you (and trick him into making himself affordable) but it's not exactly a secret, and if you're trying to get all the aeons, you're gonna do this anyway. and then the first time i tried to go back to besaid and came up against dark valefor and got totally squashed, i was like hmm, what if i use zanmato, and voila. that being said, i've found it's easier to get him to do it on certain dark aeons than others. i always have a really hard time getting him to zanmato the dark magus sisters.

Honest feedback: I love this channel but I have to say could you please bring your lists back to 10 instead of 20. These 20 game lists are getting way too long and I end up checking out about half-way through.
Weak. TikTok has rotted your brain. 😂
To be honest, I killed the Capra Demon with the poop throwing method, because that fight was so disgustingly unfair. And it's quite early game when your character is still very weak.
My Fav is Metal Gear solid 3 - Killing the End while he was in the Wheel chair well before the actual fight. 1 Shot dead vs running around and looking for the shine of his scope and shotting him multiple times.
The best way to utilize sleep in the Godskin Duo fight, is to only put one to sleep, and fight the other by itself. Otherwise once you hit them, they wake up and you’re wasting sleep pots. If you put one to sleep and don’t hit it with any attacks, they stay asleep for like half of the fight and you only have to worry about whichever one you kept awake. Also be weary if you use summons, this method doesn’t work very well since they might agro on to the one that is sleeping and wake it up, so it’s best to do it solo or with a friend.
My soul just got crushed by that Elden Ring DLC Radahn fight in this video. I struggled for a week before killing him.
The Demon of Hatred one just makes me sad because learning its move set and how to counter and beat it was one of the best moments of my gaming life.
The Double Dragon worked differently as I cn remember. You climb down, the boss chases you. You kick him off the ladder and then climb up. When you're up, the boss climbs up but you can kick him off it and falls down. He will climb up again , kick him off. Rinse and repeat.
That might be a different boss or different DD. That strat sounds familiar tho
