Final Fantasy XIII -3

Re: Final Fantasy XIII -3

I found omega harder actually, since I couldn't figure out a way to beat him even at 99 without using a weird strategy where I run around in circles a lot and get into a spot kind of underneath him where he misses a shot on me, allowing me to hit him a few times. Otherwise, his damage is too damn high and interrupting the heal chain to hit him leaves me dead. I hear you can beat him using reverse but I didn't have any luck with that. It was also a massive pain in the ass figuring out where he was.

I found him pretty tough too, though in order to beat him I had to use the reverse technique coupled with running far enough away to heal (I was usually able to get back into the fight before he'd recovered more health than I'd dealt in the previous iteration of the strategy). You can bet I wasn't going to leave without beating him after the tedium of having to find him.

Speaking of guides:

The only thing that sucks about not using guides are one-time-only secrets/items/etc where if you miss em the first time, they're gone for good.

I also feel stupid once I've beaten the game and find that some boss I had a hell of a time with is actually super easy with some obvious strategy I didn't even bother to think of. :<

I feel you. I'm usually an idiot when it comes to boss strategies, so I make the game way more difficult than it needs to be. Knowing this about myself, my strategy for a good half of XII was to get the quickenings for everybody super quickly and just wipe them out with a couple of them.

Side note: I never owned the original Playstation, so many of the pre-X FF games I never got a chance to play, and I've yet to get around to them. Hence why many of my comments will be in regards to the PS2 era of the games.
