  • During the 3 times ive lost against him, he ends up using doom after about 20 minutes, so if you can beat him before that he wont use it

  • Comment removed

  • I hate this battle, I have tried I think 12 times now and every time I get him down to about 2/3 health he casts doom and I just can't do anything it's been every time I haven't actually had the opportunity to finish the battle not even had a chance to beat him

  • I absolutely hate this guy. I've been holding off on buying 13-2 because I can't make it past THIS bastard, and wanted to beat 13 first. -Le sigh- Doom is horrible. I get him down to about 500k then he "DOOMS" me. And...Then I die.

  • @dmacleavy ikr Seymour was such a pain in the ass >_>

  • no matter how many times i restart :( he keeps casting doom when he still has 1 mil hp left. he really doesnt cast doom if your characters are high lvled??

  • cool I'm the 56.000th to watch this...

  • Thank you for the combat clinic tip. I was only healing with one healer before watching your video.

    I did as you said and added a Matador set up for more damage when he was staggered to beat him.

  • I should have known I was to low level for this, even basic enemy was stomping me like a bitch, thank you all for this video, it really has helped me through this fucking battle.

  • I saw that he casts doom after 20 minutes (it may be not releated with the remaining HP...). I've fought him yesterday spending a lot of time just to see this mothafocka casting fucking doom whit 600k hp left... just impossible... Now I'll try with buffs and debuffs... I hope ti kill this bitch this time... (because I have to end the fucking game before the FF XIII-2 day one... lulz).

  • my guys are about the same and im using the same peeps as this guy but this boss is just tiking me of so far i went against him 15 times and he cast doom each time wtf

  • wtf!! whenever i watch a tutorial my characters are always so much weaker than theirs

  • @Bless3dWithACurse Grind man, grind. Don't pass up any chance to get CP.

  • Yesss lighting, snow and hope for the win

  • 20min fight and doom at 400k left, easy if you use simple setup :)

  • What if you don't have any shourds at all? Like you're on this lvl you're pretty lvled up but you have no more shourds.

  • Im half way through his life bar then he cast doom on me

  • Fought him and he cast doom with still 800k hp left, no way i could win

  • How do u get shourds? I used my last few on dashaka

  • Gave it another try. 100 hp left on him or so and the doom counter kills me. Gah!

  • ~~~ this close! Then he kills everyone but light and then just lasers her! FML!

  • omfg i jsut attempted to fight him again and i coudve won! what happened was, right before battle, i forgot to fucking put on my buffs..so in the end, he had like :#---------------: that much health left and then doom got me. if i had my buffs on, i couldve won...Fuck this boss, and fuck square enix for making ridiculous bosses like this in EVERY GAME

  • @XR782VT yeah, I beat the game last night. If you think this battle is hard, wait till you fight the proudclad . don't worry too much about the final bosses, they were kind of a dissapointment difficulty wise. As long as you have a good synergist and sabeteur you should be alright.

  • WHY DO ALL BOSSES IN THIS GAME GO INTO BULLSHIT MODE AND COME UP WITH THE MOST DUMBEST AND DEVASTATING ATTACKS JUST TO MAKE YOU FEEL BED RIGHT BEFORE THE END!!!!!!!!

  • Damn I'm underlevel.

  • @walruzz099 Yea, I had a circuit in Taejin's tower that got me around 72-75,000 CP every 20-30 minutes. I did that circuit on and off for 3 days. I am now level 4 in all my original roles with every character and have almost levelled up 1 extra role with everybody. They are all withing 2.5 rings of hanving a full optional role. Just tried him for the first time and took too long. He doomed me and i just gave up. 5 min to take half health away 1200 count for other half. No time :(

  • Not sure if it's been pointed out, but the enemies don't cast Doom randomly, they're timed.

  • i was so close to kill him, fuck that doom ruined everything!!!

  • i hate barthandelus i can't defeat him but 1 ask how can i get shrounds like fortistol

  • How i can kill Barthandelus, before he casts Doom. Goddamn i hate that move!!!

  • He'll only cast Doom when you've hit the 20 minute mark of the battle

  • kevin sounds like toby from the office LOL

  • Why is Kevin saying libra twice WTF!?

  • lol this fight was easy. White facing it the first time I thought I'd look for a guide and found this video but b4 I got to watch it I had won.

    Com, sen, med the whole fight until doom was cast then I summoned and switch to com, sen, rav 2 end the fight

    Sooooooo easy

  • @ktay95 wouldnt that take forever though?? haha how long did it take u

  • for those who dont know if a battle take longer than 20mins it gets cast.. ive experienced it enoguh times to no

  • @freshy115 sorry pal but im a sort of ultimate dude so yah i only faced d guy twice 2 beat him

  • thanks for the upload! helped a bunch (:

  • Can you beat him without shrouds? How can you get fortisol??

  • @ThePandaWithGlasse he has shrouds all d time rite?

  • This is why I hate to continue enjoying nice game scenes.

  • PEOPLE SHOULD DO A TUT FOR PEOPLE WHO DONT HAVE BUFFS OR SHROUDS THAT INCREASE YOUR STATS! I GET THE DOOM COUNTER BEFOR HIS HEALTH IS HALF WAY DOWN!! BS!

  • @PeronMiles then level up SERIOUSLY nd take it frm an ultimate guy that u need 2 levl up

  • Erm.. am i too slow? I was about to use Snow, Lightning and Hope. The longest health is ONLY 3740, Snow, while my Lightning is 3440. And Hope is 3210. Is the health tooo short? Pls help

  • @Shana158 when he attacks you, does he takes most of your health? Like in 1 attack?

  • @Shana158 my longest healt bar is 5950

  • this fight is long as hell. you lost your will to try again when you die. and that doom thing is enough reason to leave this game.

  • @TheScotman3512 Yess, i tried it!!!

  • Ryu cheat code. X,B,Y,RB,LB,A,R,L,X,B,Y,A Ryu will become yr leaders eldion an Hadouken tha shit out of bartthan.....whatever.

  • @Cookie187569 why do i highly doubt this actualy works....

  • All you mafuckers beat tha bird dragon thing before this? Dammit!! I cant pass that guy.

  • I've been on this battle for the past month and a half lol

  • NOOO!!! You CAN remove DOOM(as in the buff)!!! All you have to do is SUMMON!!! And TAA DAA it'sa gone!!! well.... after the eiodolon is gone because u see it takes out buffs and debuffs AFTER the fight and DOOM is a buff(or so the bad one)

  • @UtubeCraz17 hold on, hold on, hold on... YOU CAN REMOVE DOOM!?

  • @UtubeCraz17 are you really sure that works

  • i hate it when i had to face that thing AGAIN !?!

  • damned! i use my party snow hope and sazh. i fought him but i never defeat him. i quit then try to fight repeatedly but i never defeat him until near year later. i try to swap snow to hope as leader. suddenly it turn in so easy. argh! what a waste

  • Hardest boss for me...damn all those status

  • I just got to this part today. I was like, oh him again. Crap, doom, noo! I'll have to try a second time later.

  • pretty much copied out of the guide book

  • also, btw is Steven Hawking your partner?

  • I beat him first try...

  • FCK ... without doom i would have Kicked his laser spitting ASS

  • Lol Keygen ending

  • He reminds me of seymore from final fantasy x. He's hard, always appears, and very anoying

  • he cast doom on me at around 3.5 million hp because the boss with all his faces has around 5.3 million hp

  • I was told when you get casted with Doom and your time is about up use your summon too finish him off.

  • I hate games that make you die just to extend the lengh of the game....when he casts doom with half health, there is no skill left you are simply fucked! and there is like 5 minutes of ur life gone for no reason

  • @jamesAboy19 That's final fantasy for you... They want to make sure you get 60 plus hours of gameplay -_-

    But I'll always keep playing them, I'm a sucker for a good story.

  • can you buy shrouds

  • Doom means your taking too long 20+ min is the timer

  • This is probably the only form of Barthandelus that hasn't casted doom on me. Win

  • I beat this boss in 12 minutes. I never had a boss cast Doom in this game. I think you all are taking too long to beat the bosses. I had a maxed crystarium and all my weapons were maxed out before this fight. I had like 5-6k health on each character. I farm CP constantly to keep up and max out. Easy boss and an easy game.

  • I NEED SOME FUCKIN SHROUDS THEN!!! FUCK.....RAN OUT.

  • This Bitch has 3 Encounter FUCK!!!!!!!

  • i gave up on this game after getting to this fight :L

  • This is the only boss in the game that I've one shotted so far. I think I just got lucky cause he never cast doom.

  • i dont need to level up because i maximized all my characters' original roles, and i have 600,000+ crystogen points, but i dont have a fucking idea how to beat him, when he casted doom, my dreams fell apart, thought that was an easy one but with that fucking doom that doesn't even misses,

  • Where are some shrouds!

  • I CANT FIND ANYMORE SHROUDS! IF I HAD NOWN THAT THEY ARE SCARE I WOULDNT HAVE USED THEM ALOT

  • Me: We meet again Barthadelus

    Barthadeus: I AM FAL'CIE

    Me: Yeah, that's nice. Well guess i'll kill you again

    Barthadelus: *Casts Doom*

    Me: *Throws PS3 out the window* See? Told ya i'd kill ya again ^^

    Barthadelus: I'm still here.....

    Me: goddamn it Square Enix......

  • @Dynamtic1 yeah my battle's going well and then his hp is low then he casted doom , fuck S.E

  • @Dynamtic1 he said the same sh!t to me and he's been following me around ever sence

  • The song never gets old

  • you can also beat this guy using lighting fang and vallinie. with paradigms rav,sab,sab med,sab,med com,com med

  • i hate this boss, he's worse than a pain in the ass

  • you know what would be really helpful in this video? if you said who has what role, and which roles to use that make up the paradigms.

  • Levelled for hours. Fought him. Beat him. Never saved. Xbox red ringed. I was displeased to say the least.

  • @penguin2k6 god!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!

  • i hate it when im training and ill get a crap ton of cp and ill be all happy and when i go to use it the crystals are like 8000-10000 cp each and im like D:

  • dude, it's so funny how you're like "Right, Kevin?" But more importantly, this helps man, i don't know how i got through the first play-through, but it's obviously not working this time >.< This helped change that, so arigatou gozoaimasu~

  • Thanks that totally helped Me

  • LOL i used all my shrouds before hand, so i just gave all my characters to be able to resist daze. Because HE SPAMZ DAZE!! THIS ASSHOLE PISSES ME OFF WHEN HE USUS DAZE!!!

  • DESTRUDO MY ASS!

  • Ugh. That pisses me off that you beat him.

    God I hate leveling up.

    *spends the next four hours kicking ass*

  • when you summon your eidolon and later you die, it uses raise to bring you back to life. i should try doing that with barthandelus.

  • AHH FUCK. MY BUFFS!!! WTF IS WRONG WITH THIS BOSS

  • I remember when he first casted doom on me, I was like

    "did... he... just-- oh fuck me -_-"

  • @gheith001 lol he did that to me it took me like 30mins to get him down to the health i did then he casted doom and i got so annoyed i stopped playing until now, i last played it in october...lol

  • @44isaacs hahaha

  • @gheith001 lmaoooooo. That's exactly how i felt hahaha

  • @gheith001 Is it random when he puts it on you? because he did it to me with like a third of his health left i was just like.....THATS IMPOSSIBLE! GAME IS RIGGED!

  • @jamesAboy19 no, it's timed. if you dont kill him in like 4 minutes or something.

  • @gheith001 oh thats bullshit -.-

  • @gheith001 the time limit is 20 minutes.

  • @gheith001 same here when he cast doom on me i was like "ah fuck... its over isnt it :(

  • ARGGGGHH ME AND SISTER IS STUCK AT PART PLAYING THIS FOR 1 YEAR (how we had this)AND WE ARE JUST STUCK AT THIS PART

    I HATE YOU CH. 11 AND BARTHDELUS THE DUDE WONT DIE

  • I go hard and fight with low stats, get off me son!

  • @TheGamerguy381 But yeah, barthandelus is a wanker :P

  • @TheGamerguy381 Haha, no they shouldn't :P EVERY final fantasy game (with the exception of X-2, which was shite) has been incredibly challenging, and they're meant to be. it makes it more fun. The point of the game is not to have a difficulty setting, cuz that would suck, it would take all the fun out of the challenge. the point is, if you can't beat the boss ur on, go back, kill loads of other creatures, level up your characters and come back. adding a difficulty patch would be so gay.

  • How in the holy mother of fuck did you get that much CP? 

  • how u get shrouds?

    

  • Bosses use doom if you are taking to long to kill them. Like when a boss in wow enrages and 1-shots everyone.

  • I tried the strategy guide way and kept getting my ass handed to me halfway through since doom kept killing me. I switched my usual party (light, hope, fang) to light, vanille, and sazh and i obliterated this boss he didn't even cast doom on me. i used even odds, relentless assault, tireless attack (i think that's the name), and the one where there's to COM and one MED. Make sure sazh has haste and vanille has slow and you should be golden.

  • If he does cast Doom on your lead character then summon your Eidolon just before the time runs out. Your Eidolon will revive you so you can continue the battle.

  • I raped this dude first time but the fkn fight took me 2 hours haha xD

  • truco 1 fulminador protector obstructor 2 fulminador protector sanador 3 castigados castigador sanador 4 sanador protector sanador

    solo usa el obstructor para joderlo con aquiles y bajale su magia luego lanzale piro con el obstructo su cadena de aturdimiento se llena rapido de hay solo dale con dos castigadore y un sanador luego has lo mismo sin perder tiempo cuando este en la ultimas lansa una invocacion y luego sigues la misma secuencia y lo derrotas

  • You make it look so easy :> i hate this chapter :P

  • This douche is Cocoon's version of Seymour!

  • his fucking doom trolled me fore than dahaka ._.

  • 2'66 seconds left before teh time was over! And I beat him! My heart beat so fast that was tough! I hate this chapter 11

  • He's easy to beat but it takes some time. I beat him without any game over

  • Is it true that if you use a summon when he cast doom, it will stop it?

  • @MissRetroPink it only stops it for the duration of the summon, one the summon is gone the time continues. i tried it last night when fighting him again and still couldn't do it. fucking hate this guy he is the reason i gave up for a while only to come back and remember why i stopped in the first place.

  • @GoonChuck I beat him a while back. I changed a little bit from the video and won. If you need help, let me know! Everyone's level is going to be different and mine was no exception. I'm actually not that far from beating it now.

  • @MissRetroPink what gets me is the fact that i have my main 3 crystaruims on lightning hope and fang all maxed to 4 and he still kills me always casting doom on me when he has like 1.3 mil hp left

  • @GoonChuck Well, send me a message about their HP and stuff and I'll try to help you and tell you what I did and who I used.

  • @MissRetroPink Ok the health on all my characters is: Lightning:5025 Fang:5085 Hope:3372 Sazh:4545 Snow:5270 Vanille:3924 their crystariums are at: Lightning:Com 4, Rav 4, Med 4 Fang:Com 4, Sen 4, Sab 4 Hope:Rav 4, Med 4, Syn 4 Sazh:Com 4, Rav 4, Syn 4 Snow:Com 4, Rav 4, Sen 4 Vanille:Rav 4, Med 4, Sab 4 Even the strategy guide i have for the game doesn't help me all that much on how i should fight him. any help will be greatly appreciated.
  • @GoonChuck Wow, I can tell you right now my characters were no where near that high! So HP isn't an issue and neither are the Crystariums. Sounds more like a strategy issue. When I fought him I had Lightning, Sazh, and Vanille. They were about 4,000 apiece for HP. I started out with Lightning being a Ravanger, Vanille as a Sab, and Sazh as a Syn. When haste and peril were cast, I switched to all three of them being Rav's until he staggered. Then, I shifted to Lightning and Sazh as Comm...

  • @GoonChuck and Vanille as a Medic. Just repeat this if Peril goes away or Haste. Keep staggering him and keep in mind that when he is staggered he's vunerable to Physical attacks. When your health gets low, Switch them all to Medics, it's quicker and saves time. You can use a summon, but I didn't. When and if doom gets cast, do NOT restore health unless necessary! I used renew a couple times instead of a summon. So basically, you need (In Lightning, Sazh, and Vanille order) RAV, SYN, SAB...

  • @GoonChuck RAV,RAV, RAV... COM, COM, MED... and MED, MED, MED. Sorry if I've repeated what has already been said but it worked for me and I was lower than you. Luck is a big thing in this battle!

  • for extra shrouds in chapter 11 use the catalouge for shrouds fully levelled and fight adamanchelid's ive gotten a lot of shrouds from them

  • what if you have odin out when your about to die because of doom? does odin revives you?

  • At 8:10 you shoulda just used renew instead of focusing so much on healing.

    good fight

  • Chapter 11 makes us do some research in the net haha.

  • i died first time cause i ran out of phoenix downs. Second try, everyone equipped daze protection. I raped his big ugly face

  • Beat it. first try. didnt even know he casts doom until now.

  • He casts doom of you need to much time

  • he does not cast doom after 20 its aboute his health usually whene he gets down to 1million

  • @amizediso no i kill him without him even casting doom once

  • He never cast death on me,is that rare or not?

  • If this boss casts doom on you use your summon when the timer gets to 200 and don't go into gestalt mode. When you die, and you will die your summon will bring you back to life. Personally I thought this fight was really easy, but I was fully leveled up in all my characters main roles. :P

  • This is harder than the final boss.

  • he cast doom on me when his health was half way down

  • @dragonsage317 That's the games way of saying "hurry the fuck up!"

    No joke!

  • @dragonsage317 Doom isn't about his health; he casts it after 20 minutes

  • he cast doom on me when his health was half way down

  • Iv gt my charcters leveled up as far as they go and cant beat him. He keeps on castin doom at 1000000 instead of 500000. Does he cast it at a particular time in the battle?

  • I fucking hate barthadelus that pussy bastard

  • @MeAndMyFamily1992 i hate him coz he always has that same F**KING BIRD WITH HIM lol

  • @TheTylerK1234 I hate him cuz I was raped by him unmercilessly for about 10 hours T.T

  • If you're a biology nerd, you can never forget Apoptosis.

  • At less than half of his total HP. (What?! He's supposed to be hard!) Well, now he's breaking out the big guns. No biggie. He has an attack that starts with an A, something like Apriopose or something like that, which will get rid of any buffs you have left pretty much. No biggie, he's almost dead, right? Work on staggering him again (Which is easy.) He's staggered again, so debuff him with deprotect and deshell again. Relentless Assault/Aggression to finish.

    Easy as pie. 5 stars.

  • Alright, the battle starts. I line up a bar of Thunder (Because Lightning's fastest cast time is with the Thunder spell), then I shift to Smart Bomb (Rav, Rav, Sab) to get ready to Stagger Barthandelus and... Fang inflicts him with Deprotect and Deshell. Oh snap! I stagger Barthandelus, and do another ATB bar of spells in Smart Bomb to boost his stagger chain, then I shift to Aggression (Com/Rav/Com) and start wailing on him. By the time his first stagger is up, I have him (Cont...)

  • Just wanted to add that I beat Barthandelus in Chapter 11 today in 2 minutes. With upgraded weapons. He isn't hard, you just need to learn how to play the game. Though I did grind until I got role level 4 in all 3 primary roles for each character, and I made Fang learn the 4-5 basic Ravager spells so that I could beast with Tri-Disaster.

    Started with Aegisol and Fortisol (Again, the shrouds are there, use them .), and Relentless Assault as my default Paradigm. (Continued..)

  • Relentless Assault (x2)

    Aggression

    Smart Bomb

    Combat Clinic

    Evened Odds OR Bully OR Solidarity OR Entourage (Either one would work.)

    It's going to be a long battle regardless of what you do, but it should be hell of a lot shorter than this clip. I've never had any problems 5 starring him.

    If you're using upgraded weapons or accessories, you might also want to take them off, and use level 1 gear. Stupid game expects me to kill 2 Rust puddings in 12 seconds without a preemptive to get 5 stars.

  • Once you get him debuffed, switch back to Relentless Assault to build up his chain gauge as much as you can, using the refresh trick to make the most of your time/attacks. Use Combat Clinic when necessary or to remove certain debuffs to your characters. (Fog on Hope, or Pain on Lightning/Fang). Curse isn't a big deal. Poison isn't a big deal. When his stagger bar gets about half way left, switch to Aggression, Com Rav Com.

    If you want to use shrouds, use them. That's why they're there. (Cont.)

  • I've played this game on PS3 about 4 times now, and I've never had Barthandelus cast Doom on me. I don't understand why anyone has trouble with this boss.

    Try using a Smart Bomb paradigm, Rav Rav Sab. Learn to use the Paradigm refresh trick. Start off with Relentless Assault, after the first wave of attack, Paradigm Shift to another Relentless Assault so you can continue building his stagger. Then when he's staggered, shift to Smart Bomb. He can be debuffed with deprotect and deshell. (Cont)

  • y dont u try it without those shrouds u little bitch

  • @deathtoall190 why dont you not be so retarded

  • whats your party and atacks?

  • this fool would be extremely easy if he didn't use dazega and im nearly all the way leveled up and he doomed me and i barely lost

  • this fool would be extremely easy if he didn't use dazega

  • Also tell me Corey from split gamers is not actually Jonah Hill.

  • This boss fight is just entirely way too fucking long. I have no clue what square enix was thinking with this.

  • Helpful hint: Next time you make a tutorial, keep Kevin out of it.

    "Right, Kevin?"

    Kevin:.............

  • i honestly dont see how anyone can struggle with bosses on this game. Here's a good tip, as soon as you get to ch 11 go past the king behemoth and wolf that give u 6600cp and go into the cave. find 3 hoplites standing in the way of the road beat them and fight the next two ahead after that back track and preempt the 3 hoplites again over and over gives around 2300 cp if i remember once u r beating them easy go on to the behemoth until ur max crystogen levels for major roles, get gil too.

  • @xbeatusx that dosent work on the xbox version you cant go there on chapter eleven so unless you know to do it on chapter 9 or 10 which you arnt really strong enough to do because it is way harder to lvl up on the xbox version sadly thats why i end up watching these videos

  • @333ville what are you talking about I'm playing the xbox version and y wouldnt u be able to walk into mahabara in ch 11 u have to go that way to move on after all. and ch 9 and 10 arent even on gran pulse so what r u talking about.

  • If you use sazh as a buffer and put on every buff possible right at the start you should win every boss fight. I went through this whole game without getting killed from bosses.

  • can doom be avoided if you summon your edolon and they use araise when it runs out?

  • @TheKurtzisa i dont have arise but i know that the edolons do stop doom while they are out

  • i had left this game for 4-5 months (because of him) , i remembered the good moments yesterday and took a shot at this guy , went pretty smoothely , it was easy , until i met the "Death Curse" or i dunno what its called , i had 2 mins to deal 2,207,000 damage to him...
