@@tammyevans-mcneely1190 Simple, you just keep attacking its center over and over while making sure to heal any damage or status effects that are done to your characters. Physical damage might be greatly reduced when attacking the center before the arms are dealt with, but it's not negated, meaning if you can stay alive long enough to get enough attacks in on the center, it will eventually die, even if you never attack the arms or head. To be honest though, that was a pretty dumb question.
Still watch these boss guides fairly regularly for some nostalgia! Haven’t played the games in a while (have a career and kids these days), but still love to reminisce about how crazy some of these bosses seemed at the time!
Final Fantasy X is for me the only FF where I found storyline bosses to be way more interesting than the optionnal one, cause they make use of almost every of your options Buffs, Debuffs, statut ailment, Element, attack patterns to analyse....etc.... which in my opinion make the fights more interesting I just wish they were more tougher and stronger cause it's easy to be overpower in FFX (however the storyline part in NSG is actually really fun to play), while the optionnal bosses are just your typical lazy stat-bank immune to everything, making 80% of the gameplay useless.
Tried to introduce my gf to FFX without having her play through (never played a game and doesn't have the time atm) These videos have been a godsend lol
Third Seymour...gave me nightmares as a kid...I had to cheese the shit outta cheers and focus after my 37th death...and just when i thought i was finally free from that asshole... "DEATH AWAITS" AAAAAAAUUUUUGH!!! WHYYY WOOON'T YEEEWW DAAAAAAIIIIEEEE~ DX
This is very, very useful. Would have killed for that sort of info on Yunalesca. I would definitely watch one on the Monster arena/Dark aeons if you ever made one.
Small thing about Yunalesca: If she uses absorb on a zombified character, it will damage her and heal the zombie! I remember when I fought Seymor Omnis, I had a VERY close moment. Pretty much, what happened was I had Lulu, Tidus and Kimahri out, and Seymour used Ultima. It wiped out Tidus and Kimahri, and left Lulu with about 200 HP, Lulu had very low agility, so Seymour got 6 turns in a row, which resulted in 6xquad cast firaga, 24 firagas, all on Lulu. But, I had gone to get the Phantom Bangle from the airship passwords beforehand, and absorbed every single one, resulting in me healing approximately 23K HP in total. I then threw a Mega Phoenix and finished the battle.
I just started playing through X again and while I typically do alright, this may help with some of the trickier bosses. Thanks for taking the time to make this.
Total annihilation *IS* definitely reduced by Shell, you even see it happen during the video with Yuna. Shell is also what saved me from it when I came back to FFX after a long absence. Initially TA killed me the first time I came back to defeating Seymour Flux after a long while (probably because I'd forgotten that it was *SHELL* and not protect that roughly halves the damage done by TA) but on my second attempt I survived thanks to Shell.
I always try to get the extra keyspheres from chocobo eater, because it's really useful for making Kimahri a thief, mushroom rock road and road to moonflow have some useful items to steal that are nice to get early without having to backtrack with Rikku. Silence grenades, smoke bombs, petrify grenades, poison fangs, sleeping powders, and remedies.
The alternative for yunalesca is to actually stay zombified and use reflect on every character on your party and slowly work your way through and dispel whenever she uses regen. It’s a little slower at the beginning but you can keep wailing with whatever characters you choose
I recently just picked this up again (today actually!!!) after losing all my save files, I had been using your video walkthrough and almost made it through the end of it. It's awesome that you put this up because I also started your guide over again as well! thanks alot homie!
I commend you on this. it is nice to change things up so you don't go crazy. I have been watching you for a long time now, I believe the first I saw of you was NSG dark anima. I have a very special place for FFX, for PS2 alone I clocked 1200+ hours on it and now own the PS3 and PS4 version, keep doing what you're doing!
Seymour Flux because man hes cool Also im happy to see you upload FFX 'cause i've been around your channel for a long long time, i completed my second playthrough while listening your complete playthrough, it was like 2 years ago, i liked the fact that you were an absolute fan of this game. And now everytime i think about this game i think about you and how you made me discover so much about it, so i just wanna say thank you, im most likely a random viewer for you but you're not anybody to me ! (hope im coherent enough my english is sometime quite bad)
For Yunalesca-1: by the time you reached Zanarkand Cloister of Trials, Yuna should have already learnt Reflect, get Tidus to Hastega, then Yuna to buff all characters with protect and especially Reflect, her Blind/Silence and Sleep counters will fail to inflict, Proof armors are good but for first-timers, they might not pay attention to Rikku’s customization capability. Anyhoo, the party should be able to constantly attack her for the first phase.
Reflect can definitely help in the 1st phase but it’s so easy that most 1st timers and beginners can pass it with ease. Phase 3 is the one where most will really need the help/strategy. Knowing the attack pattern helps for that.
dansg08 what I did for phase 3 that would help is save up your overdrive on Yuna so she can Grand summon Bahamut and use Mega Flare. Other than that I make sure I always keep 1 person as a zombie so that when mega death comes I can use a mega Pheonix
Man I love your vid, dansg08! I started initially watching you to get past an area that kept annoying me as to where to find something, and loved your commentary. I subbed to you and go to you for practically everything Final Fantasy 10 now. You rock! Keep up the good work whatever game you choose to make a video next when you get time!
This is a fantastic guide, and honestly a great way to look through a game I thoroughly enjoyed so many years ago. Thanks very much for your hard work!
"No one thrown into the Via Purifico has ever survived. " "There's a way to the surface up ahead. " That made me chuckle :D Anyways, another great video! I'm always glad when there is more ffx content for me to watch. :)
Thanks for that awesome video, I remember years ago on the PS2 I had problems with several bosses, mostly I used Overdrive and Aeons to somehow win the battle, until I met the sanctuary keeper, I literally had no chance up to the point where I stopped the game and luckily a friend of mine offered his save file. Years later on the PS2 emulator I did a perfect 100% playthrough. And today I'm trying X-2 Remaster Edition, after that I may try another round of FFX just for nostalgia :D
Aeon overdrives are completely broken in this game. You can beat any boss if you go into a battle with Yuna + Aeons overdrives ready. Shiva does 9999 to most bosses as soon as you get her (even in the first Seymour fight). That's why I (and you should) only use them for overkills when they're low :p
There is even worst play on Expert Sphere Grid, put Wakka on Auron's pass, get Attack Reels as soon as possible practice a little to be able to get the 12 hits everytime and that's it most bosses are alone so Combo will deal awesome and due to Auron's path being full of +4 Strength sphere Wakka will hit like a truck in fact at Evrae I was dealing like 5000 damage per hit of Attack Reels (and the only grind I did was the Sin Squames grind on the boat at the begining for the rest I just make sure that everyone participate in the battle and all ennemy with Overkill for extra PC) meaning 60000 damage so Yeah a one hit KO on Evrae (and potentially on Seymour Natus to if 7 hits hit him) so Yeah Attack Reels is really OP.
I got the platinum thanks to this series. Dude this video is hella legit! Haa Glad you keep coming through with FFX content! Especially all that stuff from the ultimanium guide translation is off the hook! My next goal is NSG run!
I remember that Total Anihilation is definitley reduced by Shell. That is how I remember it, might be wrong though. The Shell "boarder" is glowing when being hit in yor video so I guess it does reduce the damage.
Thanks man, I'm trying to beat yunalesca, it took me the whole day to get zombie proof items and had to walk back to the calmlands. Love your videos, keep up the good work.
Yes, will finish that series as soon as I have the chance. Didn't touch it during FFXV because I was really starting to master the battle system, and I tend to get worse when I have to play multiple games at the same time :P
The first time I played FFX I believe I was 8-9 years old. I got stuck on the blob in Macalania. For 10 years I was stuck on the blob. Now everytime I play I grind so I slaughter it for good measure.
I actually never had a problem until I got to Sanctuary Keeper, his curse and regen got me. The first time around, the first Seymour's Anima did me in.
I remember seeing how far through the game I could get without leveling up. I reached the underwater Extractor boss battle before I finally needed to aquire 'Cheer' to continue the story.
For sanctuary keeper there's a way you can kill it in like 2 minutes: Use reflect on the boss instantly, Riku overdrive (mp sphere X grenade), summon (i used shiva at the time), overdrive, it'll keep using haste and give you overdrive back instantly and use overdrive again, I'm pretty sure it'll be overkill, you win no damage taken within like a minute, I was baffled at myself for finding this, hopes this helps anyone!
Recently I went up against Seymour Omnis after levelling up considerably. When the fight started, it just felt right to summon Anima and have her take him down.
(sorry for making these notes in separate comments, im writing them as i watch) so one strategy for fighting seymore (1st battle) that is incredibly easy is to grind out levels in yuna in macalania forest until she learns reflect, or find some items/mixes to use with riku that casts reflect. cast it on your whole party and he literally kills himself in the most hilarious way possible XD. I would also justify the early grinding by looking at the fact that you won't have access to unit for quite some time after Macalania. Therefore it she's going to be grossly underpowered in comparison to the rest of the team once you get her back. This helps negate that.
Rikku can also get access to Reflect early with a single Lvl 2 Key Sphere, since she starts right next to Reflect and Dispel, which makes tons of early game battles easier. As for leveling up Yuna, getting her Celestial Weapon might be the best idea since hers is the easiest to get and fully upgrade. Yuna has always been my highest level, strongest character because of that weapon, and her high agility and magic make her a powerhouse if you get her access to black magic.
With Seymour flux I’d say just rush him with T Y and A. T starts with hastega auron max overdrive banishing blade + yuna with healing (items or spells with that said) T using Bio and then with max overdrive energy shot then right before his cross cleave sic Seymour with max overdrive aeons with bahamut last ofc Nice job with the bosses tho especially your dark aeon list
When I fought Yunalesca, I attributed everyone's armor to what they had. I added Silenceproof to Yuna, Lulu, and Tidus since they have access to White and Black magic spells. Blindproof to Auron, Tidus, etc. Then added HP+ on final slots to get as much HP up since in reality keeping everyone off Zombie constantly will leave them exposed for Mega Death. To counter the whole second phase with Zombie, I casted shell on everyone. Shell can lower the amount of HP recieved back from Cura/Curaga and Regen since that's her strat after Zombie. It helps a lot even especially when you can swap out regardless with other people if you HP is low. At 3rd phase I went all out with managing everyone's HP and Yunalesca's pattern. I always kept Auron unzombied because he had the most HP by far of everyone else so he can take a beating if everyone else gets KO. Rikku helped a lot here too since early in game I ended up getting a weapon with Alchemy, which powers up healing/revive items. At that point in the game, a Phoenix Down with Alchemy can fully heal anyone up from KO so I had her bringing everyone up with full health too.
I’m 4 years late. I was giving this video to a friend playing FFX for the first time and I learned you can Dispel the Haste from Evrea and with the Expert SG (HD Collection) Kimari can learn Delay Attack so it can create an infinite Delay Lock till Death. I forgot what other bosses I did this to. P.S. it was a no grind run, no fleeing either, so when I got to Final Aeon Boss, he put me in a stun lock till death. Karma
Ultimate advice I've received from a classmate who claimed to own and beat every Final Fantasy game at the time (2005). "Just keep killing monsters until you're strong enough to beat the boss"
I have a habit of grinding til I can't grind anymore, so although I admire how in-depth you are, I just slash through ALL of these guys. Lol Even sometimes without Aeons. Also, I admire you for leaving out Yu Yeaven!
When evrae goes into the haste phase u can use titus to cast slow on him each turn and he will waste his turns recasting haste on himself and u can use wichever 2 other teamates to chip him down. Stops him in his tracks
What really blew my mind was after beating the machina after Yuna was kidnapped in Luca, Lulu doesn't cast any sort of teleportation magic, she just signals to Wakka he's allowed to win the game since we rescued Yuna
For Yunalesca, I always use a summon to take down stage 2. Because all aeons are immune to all status effects there isn't a ton that can legitimately take you out for stage 3 if your levels are high enough.
Hello my friend, I would like to thank you for the wonderful videos, but I am a person who does not understand English or I do not know it well, but I loved your channel, especially this game, as it is my first love. I follow you from Jordan
For Yunalesca, I use elemental eater armor, and heal using Lulu. Even when zombified, elemental eater stull works, and zombie makes you immune to megadeath.
Seymour Flux became really simple and easy just by taking like 10 minutes to charge all of the aeons' overdrives, since you have an opportunity to let an overdrive fly upon summoning right before Seymour banishes.
One tip for Evrae is that if you lvl Rikku enough and you're on the Expert Grid you can branch off into Yuna's path to get dispel for a sec tho I get if you don't have it
On my last playthrough I ground Tidus to the point that he went into the sin fin fight with haste and slayer, by the end of the fight I had all his overdrives unlocked. I know I made a load of misclick mistakes but the one fight took like an hour and a half.
Remembered Seymour Flux being a nightmare when first playing years ago, Jecht/Final Aeon was the second roadblock.. suffice to say I had to watch that 5 minute cutscene of "I hate you.." quite abit :)
Something that might be worth mentioning if your still have trouble with yunalesca is that you can heal a zombie inflicted character by casting drain on them note that the character casting drain on them has to not be a zombie and this hurts the caster.
lol well somebody's gotta do it right? Auron ain't my favorite FF character for nothing haha. Never needed any tips for the Bosses though, the only ones that ever were a big problem for me were Dark Anima ( to a degree ), Dark Bahamut and Penance. That said, the detail of this video is amazing, must have taken A LOT of work and time to create so thumbs up for that dedication! :)
Tried to introduce my gf to FFX without having her play through (never played a game and doesn't have the time atm) These videos have been a godsend lol
Wow, this video is so usefull ! Thank you so much, it must have been long to make ! But I still can't believe that I used potions against the first boss ... I didn't know that he can't kill us ^-^ Anyway, good job ! I will use this video xD
Man I don't know how u do it but u r da best when comes to ffx I love this game so much ever since it came out for the ps2 the now I got it for ps3 ps4 & vita I think love it 2much
Thanks :) I've probably brought like 7-8 copies of this game over the years, have it for ps2/3/4/vita/PC :) if it comes out for ps5, I'll buy it again, I always say that I need to have a copy of FFX on whatever system I'm using :)
I don’t know what it was, but I seem to have had the unusual first time FFX experience of finding Seymour Flux to be an easy boss that I beat on my first try, yet I struggled against the Monster Jecht final boss. I honestly don’t know what sort of “unusual” setup I might’ve had or the unique strategy I used, but it is what it is 🤷♂️
Holy is very useful against Seymour battles and Yunalesca. I'm not sure if you mentioned it or I missed that indication. I taught Kimahri and Rikku holy before I got to gagazet.
I honnestly never had trouble with Yunalesca, seriously her attacks does close to no Damage and she actually give you the way to survive her most dangerous ability Mega Death by Zombify (yeah I hadn't any Holy Waters the first time I beat her), the only thing that nearly got me a Game Over on my first time is Mind Blast (Fuck Confusion) other than that I found her to be dissappointly easy, however on NSGNS without Trio of 9999 her difficulty skyrocket (almost as if she was design for this challenge kind of like Marluxia on KH2FM who is only Hard on LV1 challenge) she was actually the second hardest storyline battle for me in this challenge because now since you have low HP her attacks actually hurt and dispeling your buff is actually really annoying and she is a very long battle which is hard to survive in NSGNS.
I did a swag kill on Seymour Flux. I used Bahamut's overdrive, and killed Morty for the first time. Seymour was under 4k HP, so Morty's mandatory revival killed Seymour. It was glorious.
Currently doing a "Base Equipment/No Items In Battle" run, so hopefully this will help with the later bosses lol (I'm allowed to customize base equipment, and the first armor for characters without a starter armor will make their first acquired their starter. No Items includes the battle menu Item, Use, Quick Pockets, and Mix). My current plan is to make Rikku a second white mage seeing as her entire playstyle is gone with the No Item rule, and will give a healer during water battles.
1:13:53 You can go along with this extensive strategy, Or you can double Down on Overdrives! All it takes are Overdrives to Kill Seymour Flux, seeing as how I never had to face him like this again. Even better if you have an Overdrive Yojimbo, the chances for his final attack quickly eliminates this dude without mercy!
The first time I ever played, my first roadblock was the Defender right before Mt Gagazet of all bosses. Also doesn't Seymour Omnis stats change if you summon Anima or is it just the extra dialogue?
Extractor killed my like anything, i hope your info helps Not dealing much damage and dont have provoke, will grind to get the ability and have gil enough to buy some lighting based weapons
Yunalesca isn't too hard really. I tend to let my Zombied chars die then revive them. Gives a good balance of Zombied and regular guys. Whittle her down then bring in Bahamut for the overkill.
It kinda shocks me people find this fight in particular to be the hardest. You can only damage her in normal ways becasue she is immune to everything so you just equip anti poison or dark items and beat the shit out of her and let the chars die when Theyre zombied. The third seymour fight was annoyingly dumb becasue after you think you had it all figured ojt he just kills you LMAO. Had to search this thing up again to find out you gotta shell your bois and its easy
The bosses and battle system in general in this game don't get enough credit. The fact that you can take your time and think, along with the bosses for the most part being pretty well designed with individual quirks (especially toward the 2nd half of the game and post game) make it a lot more of a fun time strategically than most final fantasies. For instance I love 7 and 8 but it's pretty easy to just mash x and win those games, with very few hiccups. 10 there are quite a few bosses who will wipe the floor with you quickly for doing that. The sphere grid is awesome, if a bit overwhelming at first. When I was a kid I didn't appreciate it nearly as much as I do now, it was quite a bit different than the previous playstation titles and I was still a dumb kid. The older I get, the more I like the game. Thanks for all your content on this wonderful adventure over the years. I watch your videos whenever I need help or some info on a boss/drop/weapon location etc. Hope all is well in Turkey, my friend. Greeting from the states (Indiana).
I had never pushed Chocobo eater of the cliff until 2 days ago when I randomly did it easily he never pushed us back Tidus with haste and delay attack made it simple.
Beaten the shit out of this game last year. Accomplished everything I wanted that I failed to do as a kid. Ahhhh, sometimes I think about playing it again. But I beaten it like 7 times already.
I love going on old neoseeker forums where people in like 2001-2002 are asking for boss guides. Almost all of the answers are to train up more. Lol like every final fantasy game, you shouldn’t have to grind all that much at all, especially games after FFVI. So long as you’re not skipping tons of battles, there are absolutely correct strategies to use that will make them all manageable. Simply training/grinding more is always the stupidest answer available lol.
I hated seymour flux my first go round. On the ps2 the internet wasn't as good as it is and I didn't have the money to but the guide. My parents didn't anyway. It took me months !! I would rage quit and stop playing for months lmfao. I would get back on. Try for hours! He took up my weekends. lol

dansg08 How do I defeat Sinspawn Gui without even dealing any damage to the head and arms, and letting the head do Venom all that it wants?

And I'm glad for it!!
dansg08 im o seymor
Tried to introduce my gf to FFX without having her play through (never played a game and doesn't have the time atm)
These videos have been a godsend lol
I've fully ran through this game a lot. By far my most completed game anyway. Yet here I am still learning new things about the bosses.
Seymour Flux was easily the toughest boss for me on my first few playthroughs
Mine was Evrae. I spent hours grinding on the airship on my first playthrough.
I just got all my summons to over drive, with Lulu’s Bio, 6 turns later, your done.
Third Seymour...gave me nightmares as a kid...I had to cheese the shit outta cheers and focus after my 37th death...and just when i thought i was finally free from that asshole... "DEATH AWAITS" AAAAAAAUUUUUGH!!! WHYYY WOOON'T YEEEWW DAAAAAAIIIIEEEE~ DX
Mine was Braska’s final Aeon, the first phase was disappointingly easy, but the second phase hit me like a freight train
very much agreed, although i found yunalesca also exceedingly difficult on my first play through
This is very, very useful. Would have killed for that sort of info on Yunalesca. I would definitely watch one on the Monster arena/Dark aeons if you ever made one.

I then threw a Mega Phoenix and finished the battle.
WOW 😲 awesome 😎
That was a trip to read. Awesome, man!
with Wendigo you can actually use Esuna on him to remove his Berserk status, which will reduce his damage output by a lot
That's how you get rid of it? Wow... didn't think of that.
Stfu, are you serious?! 20 years later and learn something new, that’s awesome!
@@jaredwalley5692 You can also get rid of it with Threaten. I learned that from the strategy guide

Eh not really the best game
I always try to get the extra keyspheres from chocobo eater, because it's really useful for making Kimahri a thief, mushroom rock road and road to moonflow have some useful items to steal that are nice to get early without having to backtrack with Rikku. Silence grenades, smoke bombs, petrify grenades, poison fangs, sleeping powders, and remedies.
The alternative for yunalesca is to actually stay zombified and use reflect on every character on your party and slowly work your way through and dispel whenever she uses regen. It’s a little slower at the beginning but you can keep wailing with whatever characters you choose
I haven’t played the game in about 8 years and I still watched this. Loved it

Great video! Very informative. Also, I never realised this before, but I'm guessing Tros is an easter egg to Ultros.
Thanks for that awesome video, I remember years ago on the PS2 I had problems with several bosses, mostly I used Overdrive and Aeons to somehow win the battle, until I met the sanctuary keeper, I literally had no chance up to the point where I stopped the game and luckily a friend of mine offered his save file.
Years later on the PS2 emulator I did a perfect 100% playthrough.
And today I'm trying X-2 Remaster Edition, after that I may try another round of FFX just for nostalgia :D
love this video man! definitely a lot of work went into this, like the video transitions and the boss notes. keep up the awesome vids man!
Thanks for the detail! Going through the game again after so many years
Aeon overdrives are completely broken in this game. You can beat any boss if you go into a battle with Yuna + Aeons overdrives ready. Shiva does 9999 to most bosses as soon as you get her (even in the first Seymour fight). That's why I (and you should) only use them for overkills when they're low :p
There is even worst play on Expert Sphere Grid, put Wakka on Auron's pass, get Attack Reels as soon as possible practice a little to be able to get the 12 hits everytime and that's it most bosses are alone so Combo will deal awesome and due to Auron's path being full of +4 Strength sphere Wakka will hit like a truck in fact at Evrae I was dealing like 5000 damage per hit of Attack Reels (and the only grind I did was the Sin Squames grind on the boat at the begining for the rest I just make sure that everyone participate in the battle and all ennemy with Overkill for extra PC) meaning 60000 damage so Yeah a one hit KO on Evrae (and potentially on Seymour Natus to if 7 hits hit him) so Yeah Attack Reels is really OP.
I remember back in the day my strategy for every boss was the first one he talked about. Overdrive farm and *surprised pikachu* if anything survived.
I got the platinum thanks to this series. Dude this video is hella legit! Haa Glad you keep coming through with FFX content! Especially all that stuff from the ultimanium guide translation is off the hook! My next goal is NSG run!
I wanted to watch FF Gameplay of the bosses relatively quickly and this was fantastic nostalgia.
I remember that Total Anihilation is definitley reduced by Shell. That is how I remember it, might be wrong though. The Shell "boarder" is glowing when being hit in yor video so I guess it does reduce the damage.
You deserve a Nobel Prize! Thank you!
im not even playing this game rn, and i wouldnt really need it if i was playing it. BUT i saw the thumbnail and i needed to watch this
Been playing this while I'm off work and this has really helped me out, cheers dude
Thanks man, I'm trying to beat yunalesca, it took me the whole day to get zombie proof items and had to walk back to the calmlands. Love your videos, keep up the good work.
I love that you did this. I am a speedrunner of this game. but seriously you know you're stuff and I even learned a thing or two. really great man.
Wow, I'm sure that you have put a lot of effort to make this brilliant video, thanks Berk :)
Hooray another FFX video! Could listen to your voice all day :) will you be picking up the NSG stream again soon?
Yes, will finish that series as soon as I have the chance. Didn't touch it during FFXV because I was really starting to master the battle system, and I tend to get worse when I have to play multiple games at the same time :P
Great video man, I miss FFX days, nothing beats this game
FFVI-IX not only beat it, they obliterate it ;)
XII also by far the better game than onewaystreet X ;) In my opinion.
Yay I love your FFX videos.
The first time I played FFX I believe I was 8-9 years old. I got stuck on the blob in Macalania. For 10 years I was stuck on the blob. Now everytime I play I grind so I slaughter it for good measure.
I actually never had a problem until I got to Sanctuary Keeper, his curse and regen got me. The first time around, the first Seymour's Anima did me in.
I remember seeing how far through the game I could get without leveling up. I reached the underwater Extractor boss battle before I finally needed to aquire 'Cheer' to continue the story.
🤣🤣🤣 as a kid this is where I got stuck because I never used the grid
Your hope ends here, and you're meaningless existence with it!" is an amazing line
This guide has made some of the annoying Seymour battles a whole lot easier. FFX is my favorite game!
For sanctuary keeper there's a way you can kill it in like 2 minutes:
Use reflect on the boss instantly, Riku overdrive (mp sphere X grenade), summon (i used shiva at the time), overdrive, it'll keep using haste and give you overdrive back instantly and use overdrive again, I'm pretty sure it'll be overkill, you win no damage taken within like a minute, I was baffled at myself for finding this, hopes this helps anyone!
Recently I went up against Seymour Omnis after levelling up considerably. When the fight started, it just felt right to summon Anima and have her take him down.
Yeah i allways summon anima on his ass so satisfying seeing him getting destroyes by his own mother lol
(sorry for making these notes in separate comments, im writing them as i watch)
so one strategy for fighting seymore (1st battle) that is incredibly easy is to grind out levels in yuna in macalania forest until she learns reflect, or find some items/mixes to use with riku that casts reflect. cast it on your whole party and he literally kills himself in the most hilarious way possible XD. I would also justify the early grinding by looking at the fact that you won't have access to unit for quite some time after Macalania. Therefore it she's going to be grossly underpowered in comparison to the rest of the team once you get her back. This helps negate that.
Rikku can also get access to Reflect early with a single Lvl 2 Key Sphere, since she starts right next to Reflect and Dispel, which makes tons of early game battles easier.
As for leveling up Yuna, getting her Celestial Weapon might be the best idea since hers is the easiest to get and fully upgrade. Yuna has always been my highest level, strongest character because of that weapon, and her high agility and magic make her a powerhouse if you get her access to black magic.
Funny that as a kid I hated this game but after borrowing the game on PS4 I'm in love haha!!
Only need 2 more achievements
With Seymour flux I’d say just rush him with T Y and A. T starts with hastega auron max overdrive banishing blade + yuna with healing (items or spells with that said) T using Bio and then with max overdrive energy shot then right before his cross cleave sic Seymour with max overdrive aeons with bahamut last ofc
Nice job with the bosses tho especially your dark aeon list
When I fought Yunalesca, I attributed everyone's armor to what they had. I added Silenceproof to Yuna, Lulu, and Tidus since they have access to White and Black magic spells. Blindproof to Auron, Tidus, etc. Then added HP+ on final slots to get as much HP up since in reality keeping everyone off Zombie constantly will leave them exposed for Mega Death. To counter the whole second phase with Zombie, I casted shell on everyone. Shell can lower the amount of HP recieved back from Cura/Curaga and Regen since that's her strat after Zombie. It helps a lot even especially when you can swap out regardless with other people if you HP is low. At 3rd phase I went all out with managing everyone's HP and Yunalesca's pattern. I always kept Auron unzombied because he had the most HP by far of everyone else so he can take a beating if everyone else gets KO. Rikku helped a lot here too since early in game I ended up getting a weapon with Alchemy, which powers up healing/revive items. At that point in the game, a Phoenix Down with Alchemy can fully heal anyone up from KO so I had her bringing everyone up with full health too.
And a good thing to mention: Yunalesca is also weak to holy damage, so if you got Rikku or Yuna to Holy, you'll have an easier time
I’m 4 years late. I was giving this video to a friend playing FFX for the first time and I learned you can Dispel the Haste from Evrea and with the Expert SG (HD Collection) Kimari can learn Delay Attack so it can create an infinite Delay Lock till Death. I forgot what other bosses I did this to.
P.S. it was a no grind run, no fleeing either, so when I got to Final Aeon Boss, he put me in a stun lock till death. Karma
Ultimate advice I've received from a classmate who claimed to own and beat every Final Fantasy game at the time (2005). "Just keep killing monsters until you're strong enough to beat the boss"
that is the best advice for most games with normal level up sistem
I have a habit of grinding til I can't grind anymore, so although I admire how in-depth you are, I just slash through ALL of these guys. Lol Even sometimes without Aeons. Also, I admire you for leaving out Yu Yeaven!
When evrae goes into the haste phase u can use titus to cast slow on him each turn and he will waste his turns recasting haste on himself and u can use wichever 2 other teamates to chip him down. Stops him in his tracks
What really blew my mind was after beating the machina after Yuna was kidnapped in Luca, Lulu doesn't cast any sort of teleportation magic, she just signals to Wakka he's allowed to win the game since we rescued Yuna
For Yunalesca, I always use a summon to take down stage 2.
Because all aeons are immune to all status effects there isn't a ton that can legitimately take you out for stage 3 if your levels are high enough.
i know the game in and out, but watching anyways because i love it so much :)
Hello my friend, I would like to thank you for the wonderful videos, but I am a person who does not understand English
or I do not know it well, but I loved your channel, especially this game, as it is my first love. I follow you from Jordan
For Yunalesca, I use elemental eater armor, and heal using Lulu. Even when zombified, elemental eater stull works, and zombie makes you immune to megadeath.
Seymour Flux became really simple and easy just by taking like 10 minutes to charge all of the aeons' overdrives, since you have an opportunity to let an overdrive fly upon summoning right before Seymour banishes.
Dude as much effort as you put in these boss guides it pisses me off you don’t get more views.
One tip for Evrae is that if you lvl Rikku enough and you're on the Expert Grid you can branch off into Yuna's path to get dispel for a sec tho I get if you don't have it
On my last playthrough I ground Tidus to the point that he went into the sin fin fight with haste and slayer, by the end of the fight I had all his overdrives unlocked. I know I made a load of misclick mistakes but the one fight took like an hour and a half.
Remembered Seymour Flux being a nightmare when first playing years ago, Jecht/Final Aeon was the second roadblock.. suffice to say I had to watch that 5 minute cutscene of "I hate you.." quite abit :)
Something that might be worth mentioning if your still have trouble with yunalesca is that you can heal a zombie inflicted character by casting drain on them note that the character casting drain on them has to not be a zombie and this hurts the caster.
Oh my god, that first part of the Video alone... Auron's scene with his theme?
10/10 already a perfect video haha
Trust you to be the one who comments on Auron despite the video being about Bosses :P
lol well somebody's gotta do it right? Auron ain't my favorite FF character for nothing haha.
Never needed any tips for the Bosses though, the only ones that ever were a big problem for me were Dark Anima ( to a degree ), Dark Bahamut and Penance.
That said, the detail of this video is amazing, must have taken A LOT of work and time to create so thumbs up for that dedication! :)
Tried to introduce my gf to FFX without having her play through (never played a game and doesn't have the time atm)
These videos have been a godsend lol
BFA's F2 attack's name is not "Sword Swipe", it's Blade Blitz.
Wow, this video is so usefull ! Thank you so much, it must have been long to make ! But I still can't believe that I used potions against the first boss ... I didn't know that he can't kill us ^-^ Anyway, good job ! I will use this video xD
Every time I see a FF video I smile....whenever it's a FFX video...I DROP EVERYTHING AND I NEED TO SEE IT
Hehe I think I overleveled for Chocobo Eater. Hasted Lulu with Fira over and over again meant he was pushed off within 2 minutes
Man I don't know how u do it but u r da best when comes to ffx I love this game so much ever since it came out for the ps2 the now I got it for ps3 ps4 & vita I think love it 2much
Thanks :) I've probably brought like 7-8 copies of this game over the years, have it for ps2/3/4/vita/PC :) if it comes out for ps5, I'll buy it again, I always say that I need to have a copy of FFX on whatever system I'm using :)
I'm enjoying it a lot on the Switch.
@@Dansg08 Do you have it on Switch also?
also grats on 1500 vids!
Lovely, didn't expect that. And I do remember that you died at the hands of Klikk while doing the movie version :P
I don’t know what it was, but I seem to have had the unusual first time FFX experience of finding Seymour Flux to be an easy boss that I beat on my first try, yet I struggled against the Monster Jecht final boss.
I honestly don’t know what sort of “unusual” setup I might’ve had or the unique strategy I used, but it is what it is 🤷♂️
Holy is very useful against Seymour battles and Yunalesca. I'm not sure if you mentioned it or I missed that indication. I taught Kimahri and Rikku holy before I got to gagazet.
I honnestly never had trouble with Yunalesca, seriously her attacks does close to no Damage and she actually give you the way to survive her most dangerous ability Mega Death by Zombify (yeah I hadn't any Holy Waters the first time I beat her), the only thing that nearly got me a Game Over on my first time is Mind Blast (Fuck Confusion) other than that I found her to be dissappointly easy, however on NSGNS without Trio of 9999 her difficulty skyrocket (almost as if she was design for this challenge kind of like Marluxia on KH2FM who is only Hard on LV1 challenge) she was actually the second hardest storyline battle for me in this challenge because now since you have low HP her attacks actually hurt and dispeling your buff is actually really annoying and she is a very long battle which is hard to survive in NSGNS.
I did a swag kill on Seymour Flux. I used Bahamut's overdrive, and killed Morty for the first time. Seymour was under 4k HP, so Morty's mandatory revival killed Seymour. It was glorious.
Currently doing a "Base Equipment/No Items In Battle" run, so hopefully this will help with the later bosses lol
(I'm allowed to customize base equipment, and the first armor for characters without a starter armor will make their first acquired their starter. No Items includes the battle menu Item, Use, Quick Pockets, and Mix).
My current plan is to make Rikku a second white mage seeing as her entire playstyle is gone with the No Item rule, and will give a healer during water battles.
1:13:53 You can go along with this extensive strategy, Or you can double Down on Overdrives! All it takes are Overdrives to Kill Seymour Flux, seeing as how I never had to face him like this again. Even better if you have an Overdrive Yojimbo, the chances for his final attack quickly eliminates this dude without mercy!
You did a masterpiece
The first time I ever played, my first roadblock was the Defender right before Mt Gagazet of all bosses.
Also doesn't Seymour Omnis stats change if you summon Anima or is it just the extra dialogue?
Extractor killed my like anything, i hope your info helps
Not dealing much damage and dont have provoke, will grind to get the ability and have gil enough to buy some lighting based weapons
Yunalesca isn't too hard really. I tend to let my Zombied chars die then revive them. Gives a good balance of Zombied and regular guys. Whittle her down then bring in Bahamut for the overkill.
It kinda shocks me people find this fight in particular to be the hardest. You can only damage her in normal ways becasue she is immune to everything so you just equip anti poison or dark items and beat the shit out of her and let the chars die when Theyre zombied. The third seymour fight was annoyingly dumb becasue after you think you had it all figured ojt he just kills you LMAO. Had to search this thing up again to find out you gotta shell your bois and its easy
The bosses and battle system in general in this game don't get enough credit. The fact that you can take your time and think, along with the bosses for the most part being pretty well designed with individual quirks (especially toward the 2nd half of the game and post game) make it a lot more of a fun time strategically than most final fantasies. For instance I love 7 and 8 but it's pretty easy to just mash x and win those games, with very few hiccups. 10 there are quite a few bosses who will wipe the floor with you quickly for doing that.
The sphere grid is awesome, if a bit overwhelming at first. When I was a kid I didn't appreciate it nearly as much as I do now, it was quite a bit different than the previous playstation titles and I was still a dumb kid. The older I get, the more I like the game.
Thanks for all your content on this wonderful adventure over the years. I watch your videos whenever I need help or some info on a boss/drop/weapon location etc. Hope all is well in Turkey, my friend. Greeting from the states (Indiana).
The head of Sinspawn Gui has 4000 hp, not 6000. Anyway, great video! :D
I had never pushed Chocobo eater of the cliff until 2 days ago when I randomly did it easily he never pushed us back Tidus with haste and delay attack made it simple.
Beaten the shit out of this game last year. Accomplished everything I wanted that I failed to do as a kid. Ahhhh, sometimes I think about playing it again. But I beaten it like 7 times already.
Pro tip when facing lady yunalesca put reflect on all your party members then when u attack her she won’t be able to put those nasty affects on u
The easiest way to kill all bosses after the second seymore is grind all the aeons overdrives to max and use them. Easy wins
I've been stuck on Braskas Final Aeon for over 2 weeks, this is my first time playing through FFX so I missed alot of stuff
I love going on old neoseeker forums where people in like 2001-2002 are asking for boss guides. Almost all of the answers are to train up more. Lol like every final fantasy game, you shouldn’t have to grind all that much at all, especially games after FFVI. So long as you’re not skipping tons of battles, there are absolutely correct strategies to use that will make them all manageable. Simply training/grinding more is always the stupidest answer available lol.
You can also heal the chocobo eater with Yuna to push him off
Dude your awesome for this! It has helped me out tremendously!!
In the Seymour and Anima fight you can kill the guards instantly with a petrify grenade
Or a deathtouch fatal cait sith( buy from the wandering man in guadosalam)
And that t.k.o
I hated seymour flux my first go round. On the ps2 the internet wasn't as good as it is and I didn't have the money to but the guide. My parents didn't anyway. It took me months !! I would rage quit and stop playing for months lmfao. I would get back on. Try for hours! He took up my weekends. lol
