i found this boss ridiculous, its not even creative or cool the way he wipes you out with that one attack. its just like "blahblah", the screen flashes, and everybody dies. not very thought out at all, just lame and unfairly difficult. its like the programmers ran out of cool ideas or something.
@SplitYoWigBack If you made a boss that everyone could beat their first try, it would be pretty lame. Some people probably beat it their first time, but they spent more time training
instead of using bahamut , use a boosted syldra (magus rod equipped to summoner ) . it hits with almost same damage and the part with the female is brake-able (Brake spell or capturing and releasing mover ) by the way
The easiest way to kill neo exdeath is to use mix an mix a potion and a dragon fang on some one with zenigage like 4 times then use zenigage and it will hit 9999 lol thats how i did lol i just found out rofl
I still have this game in my draw somewhere for ps1, and i've recently aquired a ps2 off a friend that no longer wanted it, he even gave me a ps1 memory card with it too! Guess who's gonna go missing for a few weeks while playing FF5! ;D
When I first defeated ExDeath (tree form) I was like... IThat's it? I hope NeoExdeath will be harder... took me 10 tries (at the very least) to defeat Neo. I'd have to agree with most people here. NeoExdeath is the hardest final boss of the series. Although try to defeat Necron without any Ailment protection abilities... it's HELL
Neo Exdeath looks like a army of monsters, fiends, nightmares, and demons put together, there's no question where his main head is, it's not in front or in back I can tell you that.
when I fought Neo Exdeath I didn't know what Grand cross looked like *if it was to be used in 3d* I figured it was like pin ball or something *all those spheres bouncing everywhere and destroying everything*. After Dissidia I wonder if they had that idea when animating it in FFV...
Not only is Exdeath one of Final Fantasies hardest final bosses, but he's definately the most twisted and evil. Unlike most enemies who will reveal their entire plan and a long drawn out drama, he just does it. Like when he starts opening the void rifts and they engulf the cities. He does wait for the Heros to get there so he can announce it. He just does it right then and there.
@dbmccart Well... do not forget about Kefka, Exdeath do not tell what is want, Kefka destroys everithing without a real reason, he just wanted to destroy everething (and he is able to do it).
@dbmccart So true, i remember when i watched him do it and thought "Shit.. i'm sure i needed to do something in that town.. This isn't like other final fantasy villians!
Thank you for replying and for clearing that up for me! It has been a while since I played this game. Grand Cross is really annoying, in this and FFIX.
My tactic was just to suit em all with Mimic gear and whatever specials otherwise. the mimic ability allowed all of them to go nuts with each others powerful spells. This wasn't a terribly hard battle.
In final fantasy viii, the enemies level up with you, and they get stronger stat boosts, so technically a level 100 run would be a challenge while a no level run wouldn't
i'm at drakenville in world 2 right now.galuf's death is immenent,i think.but damn,he looks as hard as ultemicia(i got 3 lv 100's and i STILL can't beat her)
ok well i wasn't prepared for the fact that you couldn't enter towns and the other 3 members are like level 15 i can get to the last form but i die soon afterwards.
I think it's damage is came from mix of Magic+Speed*Level? I dunno, but enemies' defence might effect it too. But Meteor's damage is based to some sort of statistics, so it's really not 100% random, but not a Fixed-Damage-attack too.
Some say Sephiroth is the hardest. Others say Kefka or Zeromus or something. It all depends on our opinions. Me though, I don't know who the hardest is.
Final Fantasy I and III were great, I thought. Final Fantasy I doesn't have much for storyline, however, the difficulty kept me in it. III was awesome as well, what with the Job system, which is always a plus for me. Full customization with room for change. I haven't played too much of II, however, I though it wasn't THAT bad for what I've played.
I found Ultimacia was way easier than Sephiroth. I mean, a blind chicken with downs while on LSD could beat her.
Because he got zombified after Neoxdeath Grand Cross, that's why he also attack the others, gosh I hated that attack it cause random status problems, once it zombified my Butz, stone another and the oher two were already death.
Cuz I always finish the first part of the body then the other parts have 10k hp left or something then he owns me with Algamest.(2 lv 44's and 2 lv 43's)
I don't usually play Final Fantasy games from start to finish.. But I did with this one, and i mastered every job with every character.. Ask me if im a loser...haha
not really seeing as nintendo have no qualms about charging us incredulous sums of money for their games, link cables, etc. Maybe they should all just bring the prices down a little? No? Poor blokes, theyre just friendly people, arent they? WE are the thieves not them...theyre just good samaritans helping us all achieve world peace!
I like FF5 but Exdeath transformed into this twisted supreme creature just to sit still and get the beatings, NOW THAT IS JUST PURE EVIL!

funny how the main purpose of a lot FF villains is "to return everything to nothingness"...but at the end no one seems to accomplish this goal... :)
in FFIII, Cloud of Darkness wants this
in FFV, Neo-Ex Death wants this
in FFVI, Kefka wants this
in FFVIII, Ultimecia wants this
in FFIX, Necron wants this
At the end, they are the ones that have ceased to exist...except for Necron...that is "The Death" itself.
