  • He hits more than u can heal. Pretty hard as for first boss and im not sure if i wanna see nexts

  • My disc is rigged! this guy fights him for 5 mins and no Down burst?? but my battles he fucking starts with it?!??!?! u kidding me

  • @zSucKiiTz When i fought him he didn't use down burst and i was level 13 lol

  • @zSucKiiTz Lol, I'm playing this game through again and had forgotten how hard this boss is. First time I faced him Down burst followed by attack on Jansen followed by down burst. Took 4 times of trying in the end to beat him. It's one of the cheapest boss battles around considering it's the first boss in the game.

  • wtf he uses down burst and kill my whole team all the time even if my team are in 14 :( hate this.

    u had luck that he didn't use it

  • Great thanks!

  • Why is not this game on PS3 :(

  • I thought I was beast mode and this boss was gonna be a pushover.....I was like WTF in the middle of the battle.....I thought it was one of those "you're supposed to lose" battles. eventually I beat it but damn...wtf! why make the first boss harder than the second....even third....even fourth?!?!

    Great game though! - UNDDS

  • i always wondered how you could lose a battle if hes immortal lol

  • @Rhosius its because they return to live after 3 turns ( if you dont us a item to angel feather ) and if all the character are down its game over but its realy easy to lost all your team in a boss battle

  • I just had Seth and Kaim use Flare Bomb (had 2) then kept on healing Jansen while he Shielded everyone and then used Flare and occasionally attacked with Seth and Kaim. Took me like 5 minutes and used about 4 healing medicine.

  • wooo long live turn based rpgs

  • So hard for a first boss.

  • This is the GAYEST game ever. All enemies are a KNOCKOVER until you get to this boss - then you get your ASS raped and have to walk around leveling up for an hour just to have half a chance against this boss. Games like this are just NOT worth playing - fuck this game.

  • @mycatisromeo I can't agree more, I enjoyed the pretty basic game play had a few random battles up until this point and now I cannot continue because I am a basic level 10 etc and this boss pwns and my only option is fighting to level up so early its stupid. Giving this game back to my mate tomorrow :-(

  • @AscendantGaming You tried to take this boss on at level 10? How is that possible?

    You're missing out on a great game by bucking out early, btw.

  • @HarshlyCritical I just played the game naturally up until that point, I beat every random encounter I came across and just carried on, I only reached level 10 by this point. I am sure I am missing out on a great game the story looks awesome but I can not be bothered spending my time in random encounters just to level up it is daft

  • @AscendantGaming If that's how you feel about how you spend your time, I'm confused why you were interested in a turn-based JRPG with 4 Discs in the first place. :\ Not trying to be a dick, but you level up very quickly in this game. It took me maybe two encounters to go from 10 to 11, and three from 11 to 12. Anyway, I was just curious. Best of luck with other games.

  • @HarshlyCritical To be honest I haven't played another turn based since FF7 .. I completed that and enjoyed it but HATED random encounters popping up all the time when I just want to run around lol. I remember spending time boosting up levels against cactus things I think to fight that big underwater boss thing but since then I have avoided it. It isn't jus the leveling up I have a problem with it is just I had done battles up to level 10 and I find it stupid I have to boost level so early :-/

  • @HarshlyCritical TBG I only borrowed it off a friend as something to do until I got something new to play at Christmas!

  • final fantasy with a different name

  • @MultiBrowngirl duh lol, the original FF maker created the studio (mistwalker) who worked on Lost Odyssey. He doped to make a rival series to FF (meaning there will be Lost Odyssey 2,3,4, and so on)

  • The american dub fails

  • Haha, I laughed when he revived Seth. She'll come back in a couple of turns anyway. Though, I was not all bossy like I am now at this game when I was at this part, soooo I really don't have room to talk.

  • just started this game today and it only took me 1 minute to pwn this boss. I think maybe because it's a lvl 15 boss and my characters were lvl 15 too. It used that stupid wing attack on me once and nearly killed everyone, but Jansen took it out using flare. not a hard fight at all. just lvl your team up and i'm sure you'll destroy it quickly like I did.

  • @915nabi The problem with this boss is that it's too luck-based IMO. The first time I fought him, he used Burst Down two times in a row, and another one two turns later. I actually managed to beat him, but I spent so many items that I decided to load the save and try again. Then he didn't use Burst Down even once, and he was easy. I've heard of people having him use that attack three times in a row though.

  • @Hilipinapixili guess I got lucky and only had to see his wing attack only once. It's still an awesome game. =)

  • immortal my left nut

  • @aseims33 hahaha!! This is exactly how I felt the first time I DIED to this boss. and the retry button did very little to convince me that I was immortal.

  • I just just did this. Got a game over the first time, but the second time, he ONLY attacked Jansen with his physical attack.

  • i keep getting hit with down burst every efin time!!!!!!!!! wtf you lucky bastard

  • Or Burst Down...

  • Down Burst.

  • Great game, some of the most challenging RPG boss fights ever in my opinion.

  • @JasonCM87

    It's funny seeing people cry about having to do hours and hours of grinding in this game. They don't realize that these bosses require certain strategies and that you can't simply beat them by grinding. Oh, sure, you could grind for DAYS and then go beat a boss but, uh, that wasn't what Mistwalker intended for players.

  • looking @ this game thinking about buying it......... the first boss being hard sounds great!

  • i fucking hate this boss fuck you ya cunt!

  • @ReversedCorps why?!

  • I got mad becuse i couldnt beat it but i just started the game but i cant beat it but i cant beat other thing at the game its just harder.

  • THANKS BROTHA!!!!

  • Cant bvelieve how many people are saying they had trouble wioth this boss, he wasn't that hard. About as tough as every other rpgs first boss. Great game though frakin love it,

  • I died so many times against this boss! AND ITS THE FIRST BOSS! >_<

  • This boss is the reason I haven't touched the game.

  • The strategy:

    -Abuse fire magic/bombs. Physical attacks are barely worth it.

    -Hope he doesn't use his "hit everyone for 200 damage and obliterate your GC" move. That plus a follow up poison claw will probably kill off someone unless you've been level grinding. I've never seen him do it twice in a row, at least, so you have that going for you.

    -Use healing items/antidotes. The Heal spell is too slow.

    Pray to the RNG gods on this one. Poorly designed first boss is poorly designed >_>

  • how the hell do you get past this son of a bitch?

  • fuck me its taking me agesss

  • Played this 2 years ago(rent) and today i bought it...The game is epic,and i still remember the first time when i saw that Boss coming right at me for a battle

  • This game isn't to hard. The only really hard part is when you first get to the Temple of Enlightenment. The hellish Kelolons can be a pain if you don't have the right skills and magic set-up on your immortals. Other then that this game is easy if you get what you need :)

  • Anyone else thinks that Lost Odyssey is the better Final Fantasy?

  • @MioRaem Yeah, I really liked LO but leveling system was so stupid. Why they did level roof?

  • For a first boss battle this monster is really hard to beat in my opinion >_> Even the game becomes too easy aftterwards, though...

  • this is so much depending on luck!! in your video he doesnt do its strong attack which deals damage to all party members at once. for me he did that EVERY time....its just non-sense enemy a.i.

  • thanks...finally i beat  this guy

  • @johnolazabal im still on it lol

  • @johnolazabal im still on it lol

  • This is the most idiotic video. I have never played this boss when I hasn't done down burst at LEAST 4 times. You lucky son of a bitch.

  • @manchap12 dued thats wat he keeps doing lol

  • i just lvl'd my guys up to 15 and went nuts on him.....after i got destroyed several times

  • I've just completed this game and I think this area was the toughest in the game in relation to your strength at this point in the game. So try to hang in there, it'll get easier!

  • I found out that playing defensive against this guy is a waste of time because of that god damn move "Down Burst" you can't afford to sit around chipping away at his health slowly. I actually went out of my way and purchased a few Flare Bombs at the vendor outside Uhra's Great Gate solely for this boss fight :P

    So the strategy was simply to have Kaim and Seth use Flare Bomb's and have Jansen cast Flare every turn. Burst baby burst!

  • I feel like such a moron. I thought for sure wind was weak against earth. I kept having Jansen cast Ground and I even equipped Seth with a Earth ring. I noticed that it never said Damage Up but I just thought it didn't work on him because he was a boss or something like that. Oh well, I beat him easy enough anyway.

  • this game reminds me of legend of dragoon on the ps1 anyone remember that game?

  • @MrXemnas777 yeah that game was dope

    

  • dude your strategy is bomb. he didnt down burst you once , all he did was go for jansen

  • damn down bursting whore son of a bitch

  • Down Blast, Down Blast, Dead...

    Ummm..

  • w0ot, I just pwned him, your stradegy helped a bit. :}

  • u lucky 360 bastards

  • Hardest boss in the damn game....

    And anyone remember that wolf thing from Tales of Vesperia? Yeah, hardest boss in that game as well. And I'm not including optional bosses.

  • @Astaticembrace And I thought I just sucked for having so much trouble against that freaking thing :p

  • what's the music called

  • @aOdandyOeye "Battle with the Demons"

  • this is easy boss.

  • @halduro this boss ISNT easy. Iam experienced with rpgs but this boss was the 1st one in this game and really hard. I died 1 or 2 times i think

  • i've had the shittiest luck with this boss ... wiped out thrice in a row for the first time in an RPG ever !

  • Somehow, this feels like a true final fantasy made back into the olden days, even though I know this isnt a final fantasy. If I were to buy an xbox 360, it would only be so that I could buy this game.

  • @CrimsonZeroX theres a reason it has that old final fantasy feel..

  • @hatenko45 yes, because it has Nobuo Uematsu right?

  • @CrimsonZeroX and its created by Hironobu Sakaguchi (creator of final fantasy)

  • @hatenko45 ahh I see. This game looks very interesting. I dont have an xbox unfortunately so I can't play it. That bites >_<

  • @CrimsonZeroX it's made by the final fantasy team :P

  • Lemme see how you beat it when it uses that fly thingie or when it uses poison claw five times in a row!!!

  • i skill link'd kaim to get black magic level 2, but it wont let me use any spells =S

  • He never did that flying wind attack on you it hits everyone on the team 200 plus which is why I can't beat it

  • My 4th dics broke before i got to finish this game.......anybody know where i can get it sepreate?

  • You people must suck, no offence. I beat this guy and the worm boss with no problems. Every other boss after that has been a cake walk. I wish they were a challange.

  • @TheMetalpocalypse TROLLER ALERT!

  • thanx for the help!

  • man i had a shitty time with this guy, now i cant even beat him becuase i dont have this game my half brothers do, but i tried like 5 times.

  • When you do a regular attack it sorta seems like Legend of Dragoon... almost.

  • 01:05 you didn't have that many options there?

  • I found out how to bypass Burst Down: My white magic gave me a skill called Barrier (defense from magical attacks) and it made Burst Down deal only 62 damage to each of my party members as opposed to 220. Try it, it works well.

  • This was real easy to beat.

    I placed Kaim in front row and the other 2 in the back. I kept telling Jensen to use Flare and equipped Kaim with a Flame Ring and used Seth to keep healing. I beat Grilgan very easily to be honest in a few minutes.

  • Damn the 1st boss is hard im worried that the bosses get harder.

  • wait wtf !?

    how did you get different weapons ??

  • Ugh.. I beated it at 4th try. Hard ass boss.

  • I am new to the turn based RPG world...could someone tell me how I get Kaim and Seth to have magic. I went through enough battles to learn all of the skill links from Jensen, but for some reason when I go into any battle, I can't select any magic. I'm sure it's something simple I missed from the menu screen or something.

  • @nursenutzz

    Find items. I cant recall the name but one of the very early in the game allows use of lvl 2 black and white magic. Just explore and dont be afraid of getting into a fight but if low on items hp or mp just use turntail with one character and defend with everyone else. and remember you must acquire a certain amount of skill pts before the skill is completely linked to your immortal

  • @nursenutzz you have to set the skills to kaim and seth. Yes you learned them, but if you watched the tutorial it gives you it tells you that after you learn it you have to set them.

    You forgot to do that.

  • Every boss in this game should have been as challenging as when I first went up against this guy...

  • yep pretty much Grilgan's a bitch

  • I basically came up with my own strategy.

    Since fire hurts him the most, you just keep Jansen in the back, and just keep buffing him. You use those flare bombs when possible, but the other two should really be used to buff Jensan. Only use the Angel Plumes if he goes down, since he's the only one that can do considerable damage. The boss will tend to go for Jansen, but you keep have to worry about keeping him alive with the other two.

    A good 5-6 blows from Jansen alone should do him in.

  • i found the easiest way was to just have jansen keep healing them use power drink on kaim have him with the fire ring you find the components from searching around in the begining and just have seth and kaim constantly pounding him in the rectum

  • @metalpker92 Thanks for pointing this strategy out. It helped me beat this pain in the ass :)

  • the first boss is soo hard. I had to go to the store and get about 6 flare bombs before I can beat him

  • lol he took me like 10 tries to kill

  • for a first boss this 1 was difficult

  • I killed it at first time.

    When I was at the Grand Staff, there was two electrical worm, what are came one after another. THAT took about 3 hours of my life while I defeated him already. :)

  • @19gerike87 Haha i remeber those. They were a real pain in the ass

  • Hey here is something to know. Get to level 15, Kaim Seth and Jansen. Get them all to level 15 youll be the perfect level to beat Grilgan and youll get an acheivement called PERFECT TRIO. worth 15 gamer score

  • i remember spending hours apon hours screaming at this game

  • i had problems with this one too...but then i just used Seth & kaim to defend and to heal Jansen...and with Jansen i just used Flare....and thats it

  • This is easy if you play defencively because then he is a lot less likey to do a down burst attack for some reason..

    Most likey because the game wants you to play with a changed sratagey instead of an easy attack kill...

  • this boss was easy, i was only level 11 too. right now im in the ice cave and it is fucken hard with my level 30-36's i cant kill the boss

  • good game... really crap fucking boss fights ... all are jus pure bullshit.. and u cant even train up cause u never get fights :(

  • i hate this fucking boss... early in the game what bullshit

  • yea man.. took me like 20 tries lol

  • Uh just one thing, you didn't need to waste an Angel on Seth. She's immortal and revives herself the turn after she dies.

  • This game is really fucking annoying me now, I've tried killing this boss abt 10 times, and actually, while I was typing this out, I beat him, lol. It's all abt LUCK end-of-story! I just beat him easily cos he was only attacking Jansen, but most other tries he used down burst all the time and there's NOTHING you can do to beat him when he does that. So for all you people who are pulling your hair out, just keep trying!!

  • noob i fought him one try just try to strtgize evry turn not just attack attack

  • I tried to kill grilgan but everytime i try he kills me, sometimes even at the beginning when he uses the spell about 250 dmg on all team two times in a row, on your vid grilgan is only fighting back and using poison claw, i bet it will be way harder when he uses the 250 dmg spell, i think i just gonna put down that game if i can't beat that boss after 5-10 times and wait for dragon age. but nice vid and thx.

  • this and the next boss are extremely hard... later on in the game the bosses become MUCH easier..

    pretty silly decision to put such a hard boss early in the game tho >_>

  • They should've saved a boss with such a cool design as Grilgan to be later and stronger IMO

  • why r people sayin this boss is hard my party was at lvl 12 and 13 and i beat it on my 1st try i just made sure jansen used flare every time and had 1immortal use a heal item and made sure i had 2 people attack it went down easy

  • mines 15 but give me a little challenge... just try to maximize level bfore fighting him

  • whats the bosses hp?

  • @gearsofwarhero1 its about 650 i think, at the hut you rest at, there are some glasses you can wear that allows you to see details of enemies

  • Grilgan has a max Hp. of 1600

  • you need a power drink on kaim flare rings on seth and kaim and just keep using flare with jansen and you should beat him. i beat him on my first try

  • i have only just started playing this game, and all i have to say is that this guy is one tough arsehole

  • @helterskelter102 i know thats the problem with this game all the bosses are verry challenging and you will find yourself constantly level grinding until your a high enough level to beat it... DAAAAAAAAAANG

  • I finally beat him took me 3 tries. I ended up putting Seth on the back row. I used flare with all 3 people at the start. After that it seemd like most turns Grilgan was just attacking Jansen so I would use medical herbs with Kaim and Seth each turn and just attack with Jansen. Putting Seth on the back row seemed to help a lot though.

  • OMG

    Thanks alot, putting seth on the back made me win! thanks alot!

  • Man, this douche bag just keeps spamming poison claw and that flying attack on me.

  • The worst boss, in my opinion, is when you fight Arthrosaurus (I believe that's how you spell it) and then you have to fight FOUR OTHER ONES...and if just ONE touches numara, GAME OVER...pissed me the f*ck off but i made it passed it.

  • This game's bosses are some real jerks. So it forced me to stupidly run up and down the landscape for about an HOUR to find me some dudes to slaughter, until I finally had leveled up enough.

    These fights border on unfair. I find that reviving immortals during a fight is very useless, since they revive after some turns. Keep the mortals alive, and everything works out :-)

  • like all freakin rpg's out there...if ur underleveled then u'll get ur ass handed to u lol...try to level up before going into boss fights xD

  • Wow. I can't believe how lucky you were when killing him. That fucking asshole of a boss never hit you with down burst once. It takes me every turn of using items to fucking keep 1 person alive after the fag spams down burst and deals 2/3 of everyones hp at once.

  • i have the same problem :(

  • where the herll did u gett shield for seth??

  • skill linking

  • kind of a bullshit fight. Still learning how the game works and it throws a brick wall at you.

    So much for that so called Formation Defense...he clawed Jenson to death on the first round....fuckin useless

  • it's caled a challenge faggot

  • fuck you.

  • When I first bought this game I thought it was ok and not much of a challenge... Then I fight this guy and that was pretty insane difficulty wise for the first boss the beginning however is far more difficult then the later game though

  • to beat this boss i just switched rotations healing. One person heals, two people attack. I beat this boss pretty easy

  • Somehow you got lucky.

    He did not used his big-ass attack to much.

  • hey how do you get past the thing like staroght after this guy

  • it's much easier with the flame ring, but not easy anyways

  • This boss is hard you will have to level up quite a bit to beat him or else you will most likely die I had to level up to level 15 to beat him.

  • its strange how i dont remember this boss at all and im on the third disc

    i prolly got so pissed i phased it out of my head

  • didn't use Burst Down the whole damn fight, he spams that shit on me

  • Every attack from him is Burst Down for me.

  • Yeah i know :( .T o be honest, you have to keep trying until he does it less frequently.

  • It's kind of odd how they put the hardest boss fight as the first one.

  • It's good practise! Wakes you up! I'm glad everyone else found it hard, i thought i sucked.

  • is he one of the hardest out of all disks? cos this neally put me off the game lol to think its this hard n i just started the game

  • when i first played this game i was - Sweet, a game with a fucking storyline, i read as much text as possible and enjoyed the views etc

    so i carryed on and got this boss i thought - Woot! now i get too test this battle system out propperly....

    i got fucking owned over and over X_x

    so yes, being put off i can understand lmao

  • yh i got past this boss n now im kicking everyones ass, even jensen has stoped being a pussy lol

    addicted to the game, currently on 2nd disk in the scary manshion.

  • This is HARD and great game

  • 2:11 Awesome!

  • ???

  • this is fuckin nigger shit

  • I've tried to beat this guy over 17 times now...I give up, It's too hard damnit!!!! FUCK! THIS IS HARDER THEN FF 8, 9, 10, AND 11 IN ONE FIGHT!..Jesus H Leweezes..

  • yea this was voted the hardest first boss ever on any rpg

  • where/what site

  • Does anyone agree that Seth is hot? =D

  • this is a great game, im currently on disc 3 and am loving it

  • ye i just go onto disk 3 im lev 50 for most of the characters AGHHH NO spoilers =)

  • LOST ODYSSEY SUCKS DON'T PLAY IT

  • why

  • i agree i rather play prince of persa (08)

  • Comment removed

  • the mage guy is the only one i use for attacks the swords i use for healing and stuff but im stuck on the electric worm thing at the big tower

  • try to get 2 fire rings, 1 yellow bandaga, an new weapons and the water spell ( sorry im not good in english)
