FatAsian3

Amusingly on release, Camelot Singularity fights has a sandstorm mechanic plus effect as well that tanked performance.... So you could say Gawain did attack players frame rate too (if I'm not too far from what this boss does to your game.)

For me, it's most of the bosses in Arknights. Even though I don't play it anymore, it's still the only gacha that I've found genuinely challenging.


Nahoma

Gawain from FGO -> the genuine first wall you experience in the game and the main reason why Euryale was a common raised low rarity back in the day Essense of Evolution from Arknight -> that boss is bullshit unironically worst designed boss in game history, the fight wasn't fun and the fact that you kinda had to somehow get consistent auto for his stage since it was a good farming stage made it much worse The Endspeaker from Arknight -> This boss was very annoying and had me fail his stage multiple times, granted tho looking back I actually think this boss was rather fun to figure out despite my initial malding but he did indeed hard kick my ass Rat King from Arknight -> Damn a lot of Arknight ones lmao, Code of Brawl was a rather surprising powerspike in enemies strength at its release and Rat King was especially hard due to relative lack of good art damage dealers then, still to this day the only Arknight stage where I simply couldn't clear in the og run and had to wait for rerun to beat it

Prominis

This one by far. There were 10+ page Google Doc guides breaking down what to do and how to prepare to even attempt the raid, infographics trying to clarify at what percent he does what and how to deal with them. Then the fight itself required 6 people to coordinate and not fuck up over 30 minutes. People fucked up. A lot.

unknowingly-Sentient

Nearl Light's Light mechanic overall was really painful. Universal range while in Dark tiles while also dealing corrosion damage is just oof. If you have a good deployment order, you would probably do fine.


ByeGuysSry

Good deployment order doesn't really matter for NL-S-5 CM. You're just rotating bodies once they cone off cooldown anyways. More important is mitigating the damage from the melee guys while managing DP

Oh yeah the S stages, I was mostly talking about the mechanic in general but yeah.

Raiden Shogun, the first encounter. The boss fight was in the middle of nowhere. And she was starkly more aggressive than any enemy was at that point in the game when it came out.


FlameDragoon933

and she has the Vision Hunt Decree move


thisaintthewayman

From canto 1 to canto 6, bosses that have kicked my ass is First time fighting Dongbaek Expansion/Spicebush Dongbaek, Canto 4 miniboss Motherfucking MY HAAIR COUUUUUPOOOONS guy/Big Brother of The MiddleRicardo, Canto 5 miniboss Kurokumo Captain "I'm a normal human encounter" Jun, Intervallo 5.5 miniboss >!Distorted Heathcliff/Dogcliff!< , Canto 6 miniboss Quite funny how none of it is the main boss lmao. Tho I did manage to defeat them after 1-4 resets


SerenNate

I ran sinking as an idiot vs the canto 5 boss with no knowledge of her sanity top up mechanic, had to wait until the panic nerf patch to clear it out lmao


xedar3579

Ain't no one mention Siltcurrent yet? Bitch literally has unclashable mass attack, fucks with your sanity and then gives you paralysis every turn while also having a fucken 5 coin skill that rolls high as fuck and lemme remind you that you have paralysis so you can't cheese clash it with EGO unless it's like Heath Telepole corrosion.


thisaintthewayman

You gotta gamble a bit and hope once the paralyze wears off after 1 coin, it can clash with the whale The BO however, gotta EGO clash that first and then make sure lights are always broken


ChaosFulcrum

I have just finished Canto 6, and none of the story bosses gave me that much of a hard time except Ricardo. And mind you, I'm already late to the party since these story encounters were already nerfed when I did them, but the Ricardo fight was something else. That boss was the first time that I had to take affinities seriously, and I had to resort to cheese tactics since it was overtuned as hell.


thisaintthewayman

That's because it was nerfed lmao, specifically 6-48 and another one that I forgot iirc The difference between pre-nerf and post is vastly different for me imo


SleepinwithFishes

I think he's pretty easy once you realize that Ishmael is immortal in that fight. So you run 1 or 2 other with you (Had Middle Sault and Rosespanner Rodya); Use Ishmael to body block, then just burst him down. He's weak to Blunt, so I'm pretty lucky that I have R Ishmael. Boss that I strugge is vs. Ahab as I didn't have much good piercing units.


ChaosFulcrum

So it depends on what units you have then. That Ahab fight was not that difficult for me due to owning Pequod Heathcliff. >Use Ishmael to body block, then just burst him down. It depends on what Speed Ishmael has landed and the enemy and who is being targeted. Otherwise, you will not be able to redirect clashes. And Ricardo has like 3 active skill slots, so unless you're running a duo with Ishmael, you will not be able to redirect all his attacks to her in the worst case.

AlterWanabee

Pre-nerf Childe wasn't even that hard (and this is coming from a Day 1 player who fought against him with Physical Damage Childe and Qiqi) since his attacks all have AOE guides for you to dodge. It's just a natter of dodging them while attacking Childe in his downtime. Raiden Shogun (in her first battle against us) though is a fucking monster. Is really, REALLY fast (like teleportd behind you level fast), hits harder than expected, and more importantly has nearly 0 guides on the range of her attacks. You have to dodge them by reading the attacks themselves from her movements, which is really hard since she has like 2 different attacks per starting action (for example, if she starts to move her hand upwards, that's either a long range vertical slash, a long range horizontal slash, or a lightning strike around her). And that's not including her 2nd phase, where she literally locks all of your skills and burst, preventing I-frames and healing, forcing you to dodge and doge while waiting for the end of the battle.


BusLight

Pre-neft Childe is a bug iirc. Because some low ar player get to fight him at lvl 80-90 and the other fight him at lvl 40. So the hardest part is not his moveset but getting one-shot with zhongli shield on.

hakimiru

This is probably just because I'm on the newer side and don't fully understand damage rotations, but the Akari boss fight from HI3 Part 2 chapter 2 is currently kicking my butt, even on normal difficulty using the fully-leveled trial characters. I've gotten close a few times playing extra conservatively but there are too many phases, things I still haven't figured out how to deal with yet (the string traps), and they make you 1v1 her with Sena in the last phase so if she took too much damage in an earlier part it ends up being a very uphill fight. Edit: I beat it. Figured out it's better to just fight her directly with Helia in earlier phases instead of trying to deflect projectiles like the tooltip hinted at, and the Sena 1v1 phase apparently also has constant healthdrain too so you need to play that part as a dps race.

Beth (pre-nerf) - Imagine the boss with 3 phase and each phase has like each hp bars. Then you can't die because if you do, too bad! You gotta start from the 1st phase. Oh and you can't use your gems to retrieve after one time! even if you die with boss 1HP left! Good old day of Guardian Tales

balbasin09

Iā€™m proud of myself for beating Aventurine pre-nerf and even completing all achievements related to him.


Gunfrey

I honestly think he wasn't that hard. It's just that a lot of people were caught off guard with bad comps during story.


balbasin09

Not really, thereā€™s no punishment for retrying and coming back with different comps. Thatā€™s how I got the achievements after all. You have to understand that the casual player has no built comps at all and little understanding of team building. Pre-nerf Aventurine was easy for you, yeah, he was easy for me too, but weā€™re not the norm here. Just the fact that we got to him before the complaints came in and HoYo did something says a lot already. Even OP says that he got humbled.


Gunfrey

Oh i don't imply the players themself are bad. I also have one friend with decently built Topaz and Dr.Ration. Boi, he got screwed really hard during the pre-nerfed fight since he hasnt built a lot of units during that time.


unknowingly-Sentient

Because the boss asks you to have most of your team be AoE units just to hit all the dice so a lot of people were struggling probably because they don't build Herta and don't have any suitable AoE units.

So let me list some that come to mind: Camelot: -Mordred: enemy ult spam is not fun... - Gawain while considered by most as the harder of the bosses, I only really had 1 scare from his NP almost killing my Merlin. Babylonia: - No notably hard bosses, the chaos tide while annoying can be mitigated by the story supports; Solomon: - Goetia: mostly my fault for being a monkey and forcing a Jalter solo (keep in mind, this was 7 years ago) - Human Goetia: not really as hard but damn did I sh*t my pants when he annihiated my front line. The first 2 lost belts were not that hard and I was able to brite for my way. (Did get wiped once tho because I accidentally broke skadi's break bar lol) Lostbelt 3...was...something, not unmanagable but it did take a while. Lostbelt 4: - ARJUNA ALTER WTFFFFFFFFFFF. Lostbelt 5.5: - Demeter is cancer on steroids and litterally took me 3 revives and SHE STILL WOULDNT GO DOWN! -kirshtaria is fun, you can solo him with mash but it takes a while Lostbelt 6: - Melusine got some pop shots in; - Barghest can go awry very quickly; - Oberon (the subquest to unlock his ascension art) can be very frustrating; - Cernunnos...hardest boss of all time. Took me 5+ revives to beat the mofo (scathach NP spam goes brrrrr) HSR might be a great game but holy crap do they gimp the bosses and make them babyproof. You know that there's been a boss reverse powercreep when I consider SVAROG a harder boss than Aventurine, it's just that the latter stalls for a lot that it may seem harder than it is.

Limbus Company - Mr Hair Coupon. [Ricardo](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1HY4BP4KPx4), he, who is now stranded in the world of briskly. He, who can no longer reach the world of luscious. He will now, commit Total Annihilation on your group of sinners for the crime of stealing his hair coupon. >!Ricardo fight is slightly scripted fight but you still have to take away 2 of his stagger bar(stun) to clear the stage, and you cannot clash him(he is way too strong) so you have to tank his hit, you cannot stall because he will eventually get bored and aoe your A.S.S, at least we got 1 sinner who cannot die unless everybody else die which made the fight more doable. Even when you win, you lose. (FunFact: one of his move is simply call 'Kick' that's how you know he is toying with you.)!< Limbus Company - Mr 'Rules of the Backstreets', [Jun](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1mZEiuqtpOI), touch him once and he have counter? There is a great chance your sinner is dead as he perform consecutive strike with bleed effect on your deadass sinner. He is tanky as fucks, hard to stagger and brought minion with him, each minion of his just made him stronger. Oh and his encounter is regular(but he might as well be harder than some boss), that mean you cannot change your targeting. God forbid you choose the damage up buff on the mirror dungeon and encounter him. Blue Archive - Vol 3 Boss, Not the strongest boss, not the hardest boss, but as a person who goes into Blue Archive blinded and without trying to get spoiled, man am I unprepared to face it so suddenly. >!This boss require you to use your own unit to fight it instead of being supplied with story unit... for story reason.!<

Nikke has some moments, Chapter 13 Modernia was really hard in the early days, no new player can just beat her un like a week after starting the game, but there's still a boss that even if you have way more power that recommended will still suck, and i'm talking about Mother Whale, it has a shit ton of HP, the breakeable parts and teh boss core are small and hard to hit, also the hit box of the core is weird, and the worst is that one of it's abilities is to summon ads that if you don't kill them fast will have a really high defense and will be hard as hell to kill, and the the boss will have a barrier until it charges it's super attack and will most likely kill you if it hits you, the way to avopid that is killing the ads before it happens but because of the defense boost is hard, the way to do it easier is to use units that have aoe screen wipes like both Scarlets, Dorothy, Modernia etc, and time the burst perfectly to wipe all of the ads when they just spawn, or you will have a bad time.

Her second phase is Beth on steroids, and she isn't even the season's final boss... And you have to fight her *twice*.

Why does it always have to be the blonde dudes? WuWa director: "Aight we need a blonde dude to be an annoying boss fight very soon!"

Childe. I don't even know how many times I had to retry. And to top it off my phone disconnected when I was close to winning, so I had to start all over again

Dif 4 mephis is cancer on mobile. I have beaten all other bosses till dif 6 but i can't beat mephis and i just gave up and will comeback when i have enough damage to obliterate him.


Big-Maintenance-2724

Diff 6 Mephis is super fun rn with extra cam sensitivity selling u off in mobile (don't do it btw). Imma just wait this one out till I have level 90 chars.


Gunfrey

I hate when the clone appears outside of my perspective and death beamed my ass off.


thatdudewithknees

Honestly Girls Frontline later bosses were nightmarish. Even if you had top meta teams you had to sweat or get fucked by the arsenal of one shot attacks they throw at you. This is even worse in multiple hours long challenge maps with multiple and/or respawning bosses. The KCCO train artillery very much stood out to me.


flyingtrucky

Embrace the GFL experience of sending wave after wave of cute girls to their deaths to whittle down boss health.


Neko_Luxuria

The only gacha boss that humbled me was the endgame bosses of dragalia lost, I thought my characters were built well, only to get 3 shot. Also I will throw dirt in your eyes, but aventurine and tartaglia pre nerf were not that difficult. if you had charas properly built, you could easily sweep through them, specially pre nerf tartaglia. aventurine you technically needed pior knowledge or prep time if you didnt have a consistent abyss team you could always fall back on


cyanogastra

i miss pre-nerf childe šŸ„²my noob self trying to hold on with barbruh, razor, xiangling, and kaeyaā€¦


One_Macaroon3368

Childe's nerf was only in the story. The Childe weekly that's been clowned on by Ganyu since 1.2 is the same Childe we got in 1.1


SowwieVR

Nothing really, these games are not made to be hard, unless you count stuff like Nikke stages on release with 30k+ power down when you just don't have the dps.


AlrestH

How can Tartaglia humble you? Unless you play without artifacts or food, specifically without the food, it's there for a reason, how can anyone find it so hard to beat him?


WakuWakuWa

Its an early game boss, so most people dont have well built characters at that time. Tartaglia is squishy as heck but also hits pretty hard. So its not surprising. Apparently so many people complained about not being able to pass Tartaglia that they had to nerf his story mode. Is he easier than the other weekly bosses that got released later? Yes. But more people will fail on his boss because he is one of the earliest bosses from archon quests when people still don't have well built characters


Ok-Independence-3414

Pre nerf tartag could one shot you and most players back then did not have a properly built team much less a unit. I fought him very underpowered so it's kinda my fault.


Sad-Sundae9039

Definitively it wasn't Galahad, Chloe was too broken against him, who actually humbled me was Yu-Meiren, probably one of the hardest bosses for me at the beginning of the game.


VoidNoodle

That's Gawain. In any case he's pretty much powercrept by now, Euryale can pretty much oneshot him. But at the point in time Camelot was released he was definitely a difficulty spike. Nowadays the big boss walls in the story are probably something in Shimousa(forced Musashi support), LB5.5 Demeter(again...forced support), and more recently Cernunnos (not forced support this time, but actually hard).


Sad-Sundae9039

Cernunnos fight actually force you to use Castoria, but because she's so OP and you would pick her anyways people forget about it.


VoidNoodle

Right, I forgot about that. IIRC she's only 8/8/8 so not as good as an actual Castoria but yeah.


imnotanormieiswear

No shes 10/10/10 120 for that fight and she gets to cast another S1 for free every 3 turns


VoidNoodle

Dang, my bad. Still though, even with that Cernunnos is still a tough as nails boss and I had to SQ revive just to clear it (wanted to get through the story). Maybe on his recollection quest I'll try it out without revives.


imnotanormieiswear

Absolutely miserable fight, but Iā€™ll be damned if the stage and theming wasnā€™t sick as hell


-_Seth_-

He isn't one of the recollection quests. Also Super Recollection Cern would be an absolute nightmare, I'm legit questioning how you could beat him with about 5 times his normal hp and no double Castoria allowed.


banggu_

no wonder hoyo nerfed childe and aventurine boss, people think theyre hard..
