LIGHTNINGLORD2'S PROFILE

The site owner spouts white supremacist garbage and the mods react to my concerns by laughing at me. I'm not going to put up with a toxic community like this anymore.

RPG numbers (level, damage, XP, etc.).

Just make only one permanent character able to deal direct damage, and all others buffers/debuffers/healers!
It sounds like a stupid idea, and it probably is, but it WORKS BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

RPG numbers (level, damage, XP, etc.).

The 2HKO single hit is meant to cause "Hitted Char defends, 2nd chars, the rest keeps attacking". Also, I used this formula long time ago (for simply messing with battle test, though). Plus, if you have resistance against the multi-hit thing, or simply buff your defense against it, it won't be too much for you.

RPG numbers (level, damage, XP, etc.).

For bosses, I always went for the baseline:
- Enough HP/Defense to take 100 average-damage normal attacks
- A single-hit skill that hits for 50-67% HP
- A hit-all-skill that does 33-40% HP damage

Then, I tweak around and add different things to make the boss unique.

Your Most Disappointing Game?

My most disappointing game was Fable (the original). It was an okay game... until I got body shield. First, it made the game just a bit easy, but once I got it on level 3, no enemy could ever down me. I even ran into each attack the bosses threw at me because they couldn't do anything to me (One of the attacks Jack of Blades uses in the first fight was, according to my brother, an instant ko, it ended up taking 1/3 of my mana when I took the entire attack). Not even the final boss was any difficult, because he died WAY too fast.

Need scripts for some attacks

1. Rollout
From: Pokemon Gold/Silver
Explanation: When used, this skill will be forced to be used the next 4 actions, doubling in base power after each use. Will end (and reset power) when the fifth attack is made or the skill fails to do damage.
2. Spell Card System
From: Touhou
Explanation: Once the health has gone to zero, the boss will gain a new health amount (usually higher than before), this being shown as a spell. This spell makes him enter a new pattern of using one or two (maybe more) attacks inside. Not losing a single life (and not using bombs in the original game) yields bonus score.
3. Fallen Angel
From: Final Fantasy VI
Explanation: Health goes down to 1, MP goes to zero.
4. Button Locking Arrow
From: Super Mario RPG
Explanation: There are three symbols in front of the boss, representing attacking, skills and items. Occasionally, the boss will shoot on one of them, making you locking the action, while unlocking the other two.
5. Supernova
From: Final Fantasy VII
Explanation: Dealing a specific percentage of the remaining health as damage.

How tolerant are you to legitimately difficult bosses?

@ChaosProductions how am I supposed to use these perks if they aren't available to me in this battle?

(No revive items available at that point ever)
You're supposed to buy Physical Resistance and Defense enhancement. ;(

(also you have no way of knowing this but they only Suckerpunch when there are three or less of them remaining.)


Plus, there were no items available at all at this part. All I could do is attack, speed buff and do 1k damage shots with terrible accuracy. So either I get huge luck and beat them or I restart at the horde of enemies and beat all of them.

the only things that ruin a boss battle for me is forced level grinding , (Ozma from Final Fantasy VII is often reffered such)
Wrong. It's the total OPPOSITE. You could beat Ozma even if you were Level 1 with the right equipment and strategy. So Ozma is pretty much a "legitimately difficult boss".


Hence I said I only heard of it - I didn't see it on my own, I just heard of it.

One example I've seen for a luck-based boss was in "Speak no Evil" from this site - while not really a boss, There were six enemies I could only KO with five-six hits or a low-accuracy spell, while they have a low chance to use an attack that is a one-hit kill (No revive items available at that point)

How tolerant are you to legitimately difficult bosses?

I could fight such bosses all day - the only things that ruin a boss battle for me is forced level grinding (as the Elite 4 rematch in Pokemon Fire Red) or huge amounts of luck (Although I haven't seen a clear example, Ozma from Final Fantasy VII is often reffered such)
