Final Fantasy XIII - Boss 25 "Barthandelus" [HD]

[zyxa112]

I dont know about the rest of you, i only got half way through final fantasy 13, i had the limitied edition copy and the limitied edition book, i went on holiday and didnt come back to the game =/ but i regret it, because watching the cutscenes without playing the game i feel like im cheating myself, and when you play these games you really feel like the cutscenes are valuable and you earned the rights to watch them! Even more than a real movie! For me atleast!

[assassincreedlover86]

dude not cool im not even past the first barthandelus put spoiler alert!!! i was really wondering but i guess ill just guess againb

[JaysTheMan94]

"Let's do this" ..... Like Brutus .

[AlrauneKing]

HAHAHAHAHA!

[AlrauneKing]

really? again? i killed you like 2 times already!!!!!!

[MirageVelondor]

@AlrauneKing You don't, he walks away scathefree every time... Until now.

[bombombKamikaze]

2:24 snow's dumbass just never learns

[theEvo954]

Earlier in the game........"Should we kill the bird?" "Nah, that's the last time We'll see him. It isn't gonna be a problem anymore." Um........I'd call this the third time you've seen the bird, and definitely a problem........

[HeWearsStripedBeanie]

soo many bosses in this game -_-

[TheGentleman18]

@HeWearsStripedBeanie agreed

[Nana9263]

This old geezer doesn't know when to quit! L'cie this! L'cie that! Grrrrr No wonder Lightning was "Find your own road to HELL"

[IAMFEFNIR]

2:27 ok Snow, really? REALLY? Third time in a row? God... Get some brains man!

[orcfeseda]

Honestly, I can't rely on fricken CPU to heal my members how I want them to heal... Lol So I do all the supporting work :p and let the others do the smashing and talking LOL

[Vheeri]

Of all the FF's this one has the weirdest enemy designs.

[Phildogg69]

@Vheeri come on, neo exdeath was like 40 people strapped together, and kefka was like some sort of retarded tower

[Chernobog2]

"Alright guys, this is gonna be a tough fight! We might not make it out alive but just give it your all, and- ooh, shiny!"

[KawaiiKraze]

Yes, I'm not the only one that uses Light/Vanille/Sazh.

[LUCARIO1171]

@KawaiiKraze i use them too but i mostly use fang vanille and sazh

[cad2011]

one thing I hated about this game (other then hope) is the fact that some enemies that arent supposed to be hard turn out to ridiculous. Those AT- AT walker guys killed my pary in two foot stomps.HES JUST WALKING!!! WTF!

[MultiDdman]

@cad2011 i agree coz this dude was easy compared too the other 2 barthandelus fights

[EmperorXaozx]

i'll never get here unless I restart from scratch.

[yevonator88]

I love how expressive Barthandelus is at 3:48. He's one of the best characters from this game.

[n0rdeck52]

Shoot the damn owl!!

[CHCHuser]

It's about time that Square Enix gave us an old man as a Final Fantasy villain. I hope we see more old men, or manly men in armor as villains instead of androgynous villains

[matheusitba2]

@CHCHuser seymour and kuja! totally

[nosgothgbr]

as far as toys / models go, i REALLY want one of ANY stage of this guy :3

LOVE the music with it to :D

[MoonOvIce]

@CommanderSavage Yes, every FF game has a message about many things in society, and religion is in A LOT of them! this is one of the many reasons I love FF games so much and people don't understand because they never pay attention to the stories just because they see the gameplay as "weird" and "too complicated" or don't like the character art or whatever...I always tell them they're missing out big time!

[DFurlanete]

@pizazzi

How again?

[Arielpillow]

Barthandelus should really meet Megatron

[pizazzi]

1:33 illuminati reference 

[Polardj900CPCP]

So this is why the pope and Megatron have never been photographed together

[hahaha2411]

@Polardj900CPCP

how come i see on a TON of vids i see this comment used over and over -_-"

[hannahnelson80]

Whenever Barthandelus talks, all I can think is "What the hell is he talking about?"

I could seriously never understand his complicated speeches...

[acetrainer95]

2:28, Snow never learns his lesson...

[mooganify]

@CommanderSavage Also is he ever refered to as a Pope.

[mooganify]

@CommanderSavage Its probably to put a spin on things because everyone sees them as holy beings that enforce good wills and beliefs into the people. You could say the same that the darkness always prevails for the most part, then the good guys win. (Bad example, but whatever.

[IMUAstatus]

Is it me or does it look like the faces on on that ugly ass thing are singing the background music?

[Brom24]

@CommanderSavage Grandia 2 did that, but FF games don't usually portray religious figures. The bad guys usually rule the countries. So I guess FF games have something against corruption in politics?

[Brom24]

@CommanderSavage They're usually royalty and not religious though....

[nakallo]

@CommanderSavage Because it is awesome to defeat a god.

[nakallo]

4:12-4:17 I think god just spoke to me!

[fed411]

question : wich item u use to get faster ur spell?

[Voltan]

@b0rnag4in4ever1 Besides, didn't this whole this whole thing start with X?

[Moremooremore]

@CommanderSavage It's a JRPG thing. In a lot of Japanese games, the ultimate enemy tends out to be a God or Goddess-like figure.

[LisaMarie216]

I had no idea Lighning's Weapon was like that. Quite something and what a creepy guy I have to admit.

[Milkmanfire]

I'm no one's slave!

[omega197]

@CommanderSavage

dude that's final fantasy, and that guy is more to sage or elder type. simply saying it a pope is a blamery.

[SinisterNate]

anyone know the BGM that starts at 0:18?

[ShadowriverUB]

@SinisterNate Orphan Cradle theme, forgot the name of a song >.<

[ffnuta]

@SinisterNate The Cradle will Fall its called

[owensdevone]

@SinisterNate the cradle will fall

[hslcon]

@CommanderSavage Probably why I love it xD

[PineappleAlex]

720p at 5:22

Now thats why we love Final Fantasy.

[TheOneOwner]

hmmm how do u deal so much damage with so little Hp? i mean i have around 10K on pretty much all my characters (not realy with vanille and hope but they are like they are XD) but still even with buffs and debuffs i only deal about 40-50K a hit :/

[Rimber6]

Thinking he's so tough because of his veil!!!

[taka3000000o]

now i wanna fight last bosses

[NightWishMarch2008]

I'm still at chapter 11 but my Fang has already like, 1100 strength and with Lightning I'm coming up at 5000 HP. I wonder, can I beat this bastard? :P I like to train when I mute the game and put on some music...

[danny27404]

@NightWishMarch2008 you'll get there dude just keep hammering those creatures and there are a few missions that if you do them over and over you get easy cp for a 20 second fight.

[NightWishMarch2008]

@danny27404 Yeah, I beat his ass =P Lightning has like, 15000 HP now and even my Hope has almost 14000 HP, dang XD I'm glad I was able to beat him and Orphan without fail ^^

[TheBlueMnM]

@NightWishMarch2008

Dahaka?

[owensdevone]

@NightWishMarch2008 you really need to up you hp and strength. You may get by Bathandelus with that but not orphan who will probably own you in about 30 secs before the fight even starts.

[NightWishMarch2008]

@owensdevone I beat Barthandelus AND Orphan, like, months ago and I got them on the first try, too. When I started this fight (from the video), my Lightning had like 15000 HP, so it got even higher when I fought Orphan. The only thing I need to do now is to beat all the missions.

[owensdevone]

@NightWishMarch2008 Well im currently racking up CP in Gran Pulse before even attempting Bathandelus or Orphan. Current team: Lightning 5963 hp, Sahz 6030 hp, Vanille 5460.

[Trilink2]

@owensdevone thats not true many people have beaten the game with no cp at all

[owensdevone]

@Trilink2 like you? man i envy whoever managed to do that. for me its one of those "silently-weep-against-the-con­troller-as-you-die-yet-again" attitudes.

[Trilink2]

@owensdevone look it up ncu its a challenge to complete the game with no cp and all of the missions i think i saw a person defeat vercingetrox without any cp, but no i dont do ncu yet gonna try after my jc

[owensdevone]

@Trilink2 I really hope SE keeps up the momentum in ffxiii-2 although I do notice that the cp system is very parallel so you cant upgrade the stats you want. My point is there should be different challenges dealing with the cp system such as finishing the game w/o maxing your strength or something. Well, SE has a few months to figure it out.

[Trilink2]

@owensdevone i hope ff13-2 has the same characters :\ is not the same without vanille

[owensdevone]

@Trilink2 @Trilink2 I know Snow, Sahz, and *cringe* Hope will definitely be in there as well as some old characters Square Enix also hints on new characters. If you seen the 13-2 trailer yet Lightning is back and it looks like shes fighting some weird guy. As for Vanille and Fang if they manage to come back...somehow, this will top any Final Fantasy game ever made

[Trilink2]

@owensdevone i like hope ^_^ he reminds me of me when i was 14, total and utter reck ha :P but naa he is smart, yeah i saw the trailer the first day it was out ^_^ shows how much i love it, never mind just final fantasy, will top any game ever made :)

[owensdevone]

@Trilink2 Well, not EVERY game. There is a few that may be a few levels under Final Fantasy......how about the Mario and Luigi rpg series?

[Trilink2]

@owensdevone Final fantasy is the best rpg game if not the best game :)

[owensdevone]

@Trilink2 You have a solid point there

[Trilink2]

@owensdevone the only game that might be able to top ff13 is ff14 online graphics look insane but is not the same without lightning and the rest

[owensdevone]

@Trilink2 You may be right, though I highly dislike the fact that It doesnt look techy compared to ff13. Other than that im sure the battle system should be awsome.

[Trilink2]

@owensdevone yeah they say its supposed to be like world of warcraft battle system but i dont really know since i never play wow :\ still gonna try it sometime though maybe after jc

[owensdevone]

@Trilink2 If the system is like that then the battles should be great as long as the computer doesnt lag or disconnect.

[Trilink2]

@owensdevone yeah but im just worried its gonna turn into an mmorpg franchise :\ its great the way it is but after 13 its supposibly going to get better :)

[owensdevone]

@Trilink2 Just a quick update on ffxiii-2. It looks like Sarah will be the main playable character while Lightning will be pretty limited.

[Trilink2]

@owensdevone i know! i saw :'( but they are sisters so they'll probably be similiar so no worries :) oh yeah finally beat the game :D

[owensdevone]

@Trilink2 hopefully they'll have the same amt of power. im about to finish these missions then restart the game. such memories cant go unfinished

[Trilink2]

@owensdevone yeah but i wonder who the new barthandelus is you know the antagonist, i hope its someone harder than him

[owensdevone]

@Trilink2 hopefully another old guy. i just hope Mr. "Highwind" isnt back.....again

[Trilink2]

@owensdevone lol same, this time probably wont be someone/something the size of barthandelus might just be a human sized person/thing but at the same time being more powerful than barthandelus

[Trilink2]

@owensdevone if its still based around cocoon and gran pulse yeah there's a possibility, But i would say it is based in cocoon because of N.O.R.A on the beach

[Aithershine99]

@Trilink2 Cocoon is still inhabited, the exception is Bodhum. NORA built a replacement on Grand Pulse. As for Eden, don't know, don't care. Other cities are fine.

[tammer400]

Barthandelus looks like a pope for some reason

[FMLRarshnarg]

And also, Sahz should just shoot the fking owl!

[FMLRarshnarg]

Barthandelus1's destrudo was so fking annoying. Then I learn about the staggering thing to weaken the move. I pwned him

[mkhutch31]

i still cant beat this fucker the 1st time he pops up as a boss :/ im on my 10000 try i think :/

[oodeyyou]

Barthandelus is one sinister looking bastard.

[iamerror2]

@oodeyyou [☺☺{ϴ_ϴ}☺☺]

[The01kic]

@iamerror2 that's awesome!

[xoxoslpy]

They look so cool walking together its like " we are going to kick some ass"

[sainten4000]

The strange thing is that it took me like 100 trys to beat barthandelus 1 then it took me 5 times for bathandelus 2 then barthandelus 3 was like wtf ???? ur supposed to be one of the 3 last bossess and you go down this easily

[darkphoenixdragon138]

6:25

IMA FIRIN MAH LAZOR

[evilbankai80]

Thanatosian smile and Thanatosian laughter, anyone think there should have been a Thanatosian chuckle or giggle in there somewhere.

[MrChopsticks69]

Wow, for some reason. I beat him in 1 minute and 44 seconds lol. Probably from overpowering.

[fulmet]

It makes me thinl.This game is spiritual.

God the maker = There is no salvation ?

Falcie = False prophets send from god

Lcie =Men send by god ...(Prophets)

[bigman3004]

barthandelus reminds me of sephiroth...

because everytime I fight that boss his theme song begin to play just

like sephiroth does....

[madskilliz]

anyone else think that barthandelus 2 was SO MUCH harder than 3?

[xxxLephantxxx]

the thing about this game is it has a trillion bosses

[FraserWasHere]

Man, If you are a dangerous spooky transformer, dont change into some ugly ass flying wall!

[TheRyanP91]

How do you get your attack bar to recharge so quickly

[Teichmeister]

@TheRyanP91 Haste

[Sogyonokotowari1000]

@TheRyanP91 Cast haste OR check your options, you might have the battle pace set to slow

[redjecht]

Can somebody please explain how Vanille can jump from that high and still land on both feet? AND on heels too?

[MrKingofwhatever]

@redjecht just another l'Cie power :)

[johntrevy]

What if the pope could transform like that.

[zaqareemalcolm]

@johntrevy Then God help us all.

[Nhoxus]

@johntrevy he can. he turns into a giant child molester.

[Cloud2159]

@johntrevy that would be awesome!

[SerpentWolf12345]

@johntrevy There would be more christians

[xKagatox]

@johntrevy

Then no little boy would ever be safe again.

[crelato]

@johntrevy then i could convert to catholic

[nishengov]

my method of killing him

tireless charge

tri-disaster

aggression

safe subversion

convalesence

Combat clinic

[Dragon20942]

Is it me, or are the creepy heads synched to sing the battle song?

[Franklord]

@Dragon20942 At first, they are kinda "synched" to the song, but after a while, they're not. I noticed that on the second barthandelus fight(I took more than 20 minutes)

[NeosMusicUnlimited]

What wrong with this bitch(dysley) and with that outfit it look gay

thanks you masterLL for kicking his ass

[brandoom65]

barthandelus is one anooying powerfull and wise in a evil way son of a bitch

[k0a0r0i0]

if we seek salvation we would use Med/Med/Med not fulfill our focus weird Fal'Cie

[nsn36]

sre you using axis blade or lionheart

[hielke12000]

i Sure had a lot more trouble killing him the first and second time.

[ASHFELT3]

Oh look Snow is getting accustomed with the floor again

[MultiDdman]

@narutofanboyie very quick time good job

[Scaltt]

The second form was so difficult for me...

[cokeeeater]

A stupid question: What happens after you defeat the boss? I mean like if you defeat him and finish the game, do you continue from the last save spot then? And if so, then i have made a terrible mistake..

[NarutoFanBoyie]

@cokeeeater u save, and then u continue from the last save point, with more room for your crystarium.

[MultiDdman]

my quickest time on his 3rd form is 4 mins 9 secs lol

[NarutoFanBoyie]

@MultiDdman I can beat that. my quickest time was 1 minute 6 seconds.

Lightning/Snow/Vanille

RAV/SAB/RAV

stagger

RAV/COM/RAV

999%

COM/COM/COM

DONE! 5 stars!

[MiTsuNari134]

Just use Guerila Paradigm (RAV,SAB,SYN)

Then Relentless Assult. when staggered switch to more offensive Paradigm.

I killed this dude in one stagger

[Baka461]

YESH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I BEAT THIS GAME YAY! I BEAT IT ON MY SECOND GO...A MIRACLE XD LOL DUNNO IF I SHOULD TRADE IT FOR TEKKEN 6 NOW OR DO MISSION 55 HMMM.....

[Runeless]

@CommanderSavage Yeah, it's easy to portray them as villains because they have such influence over large masses of people XD

[kekkaishi90]

is it just me or is the last battle against him actually the easiest ?

[alvinkwan89]

@kekkaishi90 Yes, it is. The last Barthandelus battle is easy because it's just a matter of time before facing the final boss which will make you swear a lot and ended up dead many times.

[kekkaishi90]

@alvinkwan89 to be honest i think the end boss is very easy as well i had more problems whit the "random" enemies in eden

[jakeisdadambest]

@kekkaishi90 yeah it is, and the battle agaist orphan no.2 i was expecting it to b much harder

[kekkaishi90]

@jakeisdadambest yeah it should realy have been a stronger one but iit wasnt a bad idea though using a time limit

[Baka461]

I cannot BELIEVE you have to face this piece of shit 3 times T___T all the attacks hes pulling on you, you may survive but I would most likely die XD

when do ya have to face this craphole again?

[RandomIdiotBoy]

@Baka461

ahahh dont worry, the last time is the easiest. just like alvinwan89 said. you'll be getting a refund when you face the final boss. =D

[MrDragonBane1]

@Baka461 lol true true the previous 2 forms i died like 3 times but this one i didnt die at all hahahahhaahahah no...

[nishengov]

i love this bosses theme song the way it starts and ends up playing throughout the fight

[BrawlKing01]

...how the hell did you get them that much hp/strength!!?!

[ailashan]

@BrawlKing01 camping at grand pulse is the solution. ^^

[Bloodyidit]

@CommanderSavage

because in real life, that is usually the case.

the pope helping pedophiles is one example.

[PurgatorialJuggrnaut]

im stuck at this battle lol... every time i get him between 50-100k hp and then i die by his psky lil doom spell... >.ó

PS: i hate vanille. o.O

[cardman930]

So your recurring boss in this game is......an evil pope?

[BrawlKing01]

@cardman930 not an evil pope, but an evil super-pope

[sfturbo]

i just completed the game. but i dun understand the story at all. lol

[Zephalidas]

what chapter is this

[WolvesAtYourDoor]

@Zephalidas chapter 13

[BrawlKing01]

@Zephalidas 13

[DragonSLAYER3545]

You have to wonder... what was the point of sealing the exit? I highly doubt they could get back up there. Unless there was some kind of mechanism or stairs... highly doubt it.

[martelhammer777]

Imminent and Inevitable? You, my friend the Superpope, are quite redundant!!!

[KirtAkaKj15]

damn you faces this mother fucker 3 times he pisses me off >:(

[111grngoblin111]

wow that was fast. i need to control my sab's when i play

[madclef]

Snow faceplant into magic shield x 3, it looks like he never learns

[Nekoboy1000]

is that army of one ability learned at one of the later levels in lightnings crystirium grid? i have yet to get it i am stuck on the second boss fight with with barthandelus and i almost beat him but he always cast doom on me can anyone give me any pointers on how i can beat him the second time you fight him in derba i would really appreciate it.

[Darshan99DesertEagle]

has any1 got the trophy/acheivment limit breaker?

[hyourinmaru86]

@Darshan99DesertEagle

yes - all u need to do is summon vanille's eidolon and use its ultimate move (Y/Triangle)

[SuperPhoenixDragon]

has anyone but me noticed that Snow keeps running into Barthandelus's force fields in anger every time they are about to battle him?

[martelhammer777]

@SuperPhoenixDragon i think thats why they always battle. Superpope doesnt like people running into his magical barriers

[BrawlKing01]

@martelhammer777 lol the superpope from devil may cry 4 aint got nothing on bathandelus

[zangetsumasamune]

This fight was actually pretty easy, it's just the last boss was a pain in the ass, since he could take 8k from your characters with that damn Merciless Judgment ability at the start of the battle, but you could still heal your characters.

[cue0987]

why hasn't anyone kiled that damn owl yet?

[sabrathw]

@cue0987 Thank you! If I could fight I would and make sure I win! Its funny that they know the owl unlocks his powers and yet they just stand there like idoits.
