Most hated monster

[black orb]

>>> Sorcerers..

wow, looks like I have totally forgotten this forum for years..

[Zeromus_X]

I hate Sorcerers/Mind Flayers. If they ambush your party, they'll most likely use their paralyze attack on everyone, and then they keep poking the party members for 1-2 damage that randomly causes instant death.

ARRRGH!!!

Yeah, WarMech never comes at all on Origins or on the GBA for me. But he always, always comes when I'm on my way to Tiamat on the NES. (Thankfully I run away on the first turn...thank goodness.)

I had trouble against that Ahriman thing in the cave... I don't think I've beaten it yet! And all those other three monsters just come back after you kill 'em so this ahriman must be the one to kill... And I can't do it!!

They all come back. You can beat any of the SoC bosses as many times as you want. And if you're having trouble with Ahriman, you're gonna looooove Shinryu and Omega.

...So, I know this is off topic but, what are they there for? How do I get past that part in the game?

Unless I misunderstood what you were talking about, the dungeons with bosses from other FF titles are completely optional. So if you can't defeat those bosses, you can still beat the game normally without going through those dungeons.

Anything that does Confuse.

Which monsters cast Confuse? I've beat the game like six times, and I don't think I've ever been hit with Confuse. I only remember using the Wizard's Staff to confuse enemies.

Gas...Dragon

1. Sorcerer. Reason should be obvious. Cheapness.
2. Frost Dragons in the ToFR. It's not much fun being repeatedly obliterated within 2 minutes of walking in the door.
3. Anything that poisons you, just because of the annoyance factor of re-ordering your party in the NES version. And the annoyance of running out of antidotes in the Marsh Cave, when you're still poor enough that buying PUREs can be troublesome.
4. Ankylos. If I'm going to kill a walking tank, give me some gold for it.

How can you hate Warmech? He should be admired.

Yes, nothing uses CONF in FF1.

[Alixsar]

I always hated Cockatrices. They're not hard to deal with...I just hate them.

[Mavander]

Ghast and other zombies that could paralyze. Especially when there is 6-9 of them and the entire party is paralyzed. All you can do is sit there and watch the hero's fall one by one. Hate those things.

Same me. Nerving thing is that if they paralyze WM while, she's preparing Dia or similiar spells, and i haven't set BM rof Fira/Fire2. In Marsh Cave those were pain for me. And i'm pretty sure i meet them at every point of the game .

Harm3 > Dia(ga?)

[ValiantKnight]

Harm3 < Diaga

All Spells in the DoS version are set to about 80% of their damage range if at regular int levels. and they no longer have a range really to speak of.

ie.. Harm3 I believe is 60-240? its set somewhere around 190 then.. and does like 190-191 to everyone.. if not 100 exactly. never does less, never does more.
It's kinda weird how they did it.. Int also increases the damage.

And for enemies..

Mindflayer/Sorceror(Paralyze and rub), Mages(Fire3/Bane), Barettas(I usually had a BB who is able to critical rather easily in Origins.. so wasnt too bad).
Warmech I've only fought twice on Origins.. he's rather rare.

And for Dawn of Souls...
Not sure what the enemy was called... but something on or around the 35th floor of Whisperwind Cove... had a Mage/Fighter monster set(looked like a Mage but painted black).. and was two of them.. Attacked with all my people like usual.. did about 500 damage to the first one... then he takes a turn... FLARE!
300~ damage to all my party.. ouchie.
I managed to kill the other one as Knight attacked and killed the first, then BB 1 hit killed the second.. but it was scary if there can be more than two of them...

I totally abhor those damn things that keep throwing drawn out magic spells on me all the time in FF2.

"Now let's throw this Fire spell of destruction-ness!
FIRE 8!!!
Let's throw another spell!
And that's STUN 16!
Now they're all paralyzed, so let's throw EVERYTHING we've got!
FIRE 8!!! FIRE 8!!! FIRE 8!!! FIRE 8!!! FIRE 8!!!
DEAD PARTY!!!" :rolleyes2

Warmech period.
