To be precise, she is weak to no damage type besides gun damage.werewolfsfury said:
Hitting her with gun damage or any element at all causes her to retaliate with an unblockable instant kill.
Then there's a move from one of the potential final bosses in the same game: MA. No element, no way to avoid it, hits one random party member and deals damage equal to their current HP. The boss is healed by this much.
Oh, also, this is a game where you lose if the protagonist dies. And if MA happens to target him? Too bad.
I actually avoid that one pretty good. before the battle all the gems on my characters go to all ailment blocking abilities and Auto-regen. Most the stuff not blocked is not so bad and clears up on the inevitable trace given to me from that attack.scorptatious said:
I make sure to use abilities with long animations cause that gives regen time to heal me quite well. Plus Hitting my team with a full Curaga makes sure I generally stay well above 60-75% HP.
The overpower attack half the non-human enemies in Dragon Age: Origins had, which was basically their "I win!" move because it was nearly impossible to break and killed you really fast.
The Dawn of War 2 AI has several, including the Ork Kommando Nob's ability to summon a squad of Kommandos... on top of one of your squads, allowing them to activate their Luv tha Dakka ability, which pins your troops to the floor and at point blank, kills them in seconds.
Edit:
Seriously, that was the worst thing they could do; even worse than spamming Protect or another block move.

Final Fantasy bosses that Heal or Rez themselves for ungodly amounts of health. whn I blast them with raw eldritch power, I expect them to die, not rebirth themselves Phoenix style right when i've exausted my spells/mana.
this, this a thousand timesDustyDrB said:
my advice once you get to the point they do that (usually at the siege of denerim) every time you get in to a fight, pause and look for an emmisary, use ice or crushing prison on him to stun him at the begining
weird o.o i don't ever remember seeing that happen, but i don't let zombie effect linger long enough to do that kinda crap. and my team was always Nina Katt and RandFalloutJack said:

1. His hookshot can be dodged. It is difficult, but possible.
2. His AoE also damages himself if he chooses to use it.
3. Any offensive caster can simply dodge his hook and nuke him to death (at an early level, later on he gains magic resistance).
As for the official topic, I present the effect "silence".
This basically means you cannot use active abilities.
This effect also exists in DotA, in the form of Drow's 6 second silence, or Lucifer's 13 second silence.
If you're a caster, this means you = useless for that duration, no matter what stage you are in the game.
Keep in mind that the longest stun in the game is 6 seconds, an annoyance for all heroes alike.
Sweet Tooth's special attack in Twisted Metal 4 on the PS1. It's almost impossible to dodge, it lifts your vehicle into the air, and does heavy damage over several seconds. What really made it over-powered was that it recharged quickly enough for him to stun-lock you.
The only way I was able to defeat him was by leaving a trail of proximity mines along the roller coaster track.

Healing in a turn based battle, more specifically healing in a one on one turn based battle. I don't know if there are words to properly describe how frustrating it is to be stuck in a cycle of Hit-heal-hit for something like 20 fucking minutes praying for a critical hit or something to inch him past those 2 poxy little HP he keeps holding onto.
The only thing worse is if YOU are the one stuck in the healing position, because YOU can run out of MP but they can't.

You think that was hard? Try him in the first game. His attack pattern was totally random, and he pulled the same cheap-ass shit with Heartless Angel over and over and over again, not just on his last health bar. In Kingdom Hearts 2, his moves were clearly assigned to how much damage you had dealt, and if you could press triangle when the commands came up, you'd pretty much won. That said, Sephiroth battles are only difficult if you're below level 70. After that, you can destroy him.tombman888 said:
If I had to go for a specific power, it'd be Delacroix's rape-lasers from Chaos Legion. Not only do you have to fight 3 bosses one after another without stopping or having much time to heal, you have to dodge nigh-on insta-kill lasers that spread all over the playable arena. It's just insanity. Thanatos is useless.
In Final Fantasy games, any of those attacks that hits you with a whole lot of status effects at once (Bad Breath, Pale Horse, Grand Cross).
Also, in any game, attacks that reduce one or every party member to one HP. The fight with Yojimbo in FFX-2 has an extra nasty version of this, which reduces the whole party to 1 HP, 0 MP.

I love the Tekken series, in fact I would say it is my favorite fighting game franchise to date. Out of the Tekken titles so far, I have enjoyed Tag and 5 most of all, but my favorite would have to be Tag for one reason: Jinpachi Mishima. In Tag the final boss is pretty reasonable, as it has an actively regenerating health bar, yet it fights you alone while you have two fighters which you can swap out (which is great because the boss switches fighting style and you never know what you might face). However, the final boss of Tekken five has caused me to be on the verge of rage quitting countless times, but I usually do not because luck can cause you to win against him. You can forget about your long hours of hard work perfecting combo string execution because this boss can halt you i your tracks with a stun move, which has speed priority that trumps every other attack in the game, and hits you high, low, and mid-section given that you're in proximity for the attack. It does not do damage, but Jinpachi will typically follow it up with one of two other cheap attacks: either his "hug" attack which drains your health (the only other character in the game to have healing abilities is Yoshimitsu), or this fireball which shoots out of the mouth in his stomach (the only other character in the game to have a ranged attack in the game is Devil Jin), which is not only unblockable, but takes off well over half of your maximum health. Sorry Namco, but Jinpachi Mishima is not a good final boss, just insanely frustrating.
For me, it's either regeneration, or instant kills. There's nothing worse than having to deal with enemies that can heal themselves to full within a few seconds, or others that have attacks that will kill you in one shot, without any warning, without the ability to prevent it.
Been playing Final Fantasy XIII lately, and the last couple of bosses have cast this spell that kills me when the time limit runs out. It come up and I'm like "Don't rush me!" and then I die from either the time limit running out of because I'm rushing and not being careful enough.
I never beat him in the first game.... i barely landed a single hit on him, but yeah, that one is harder. Also, i hated the Cloaked Clocktower boss in the first one, which i also have never beaten.StarStruckStrumpets said:
It's what I did actually, when I solo'd. It was nice to have the enemies block each other so I could safely pick at what I could.poiumty said:
But in the later years of Diablo 2, there were lots of Tomb runs which people just didn't do when I played. But from release to the 7th year I quit, people were really into rushing. Act 2 was the worst because people hated to find the amulet and staff with all the other acts you could skip instantly.
Eventually Blizzard made it so you had to kill the council to skip act 3 too. Everyone else hated it. No one was really into playing the game.
