The final part begins as soon as you finish off the junctioned version of Ultimecia. Now a very creepy Ultimecia appears, which seems to be her true form. Now things get crazy. One mistake and you could end up dead. She has an attack called Hell's Judgement. It brings everyone to 1 HP. This means you ALWAYS have to be on standby with one character to throw a Megaelixer, or triple cast Curaga. If not, her next attack will probably kill everyone. Other than that, standard Limit strat is your best bet. She has a lots of HP. Hope for a Lion Heart.

After you do enough damage to her, that weird thing underneath her becomes a target (it's actually a person if you look at a better quality video of it or find a picture). You have to be careful now. Utlimecia will Draw the powerful magic Apocalypse. This is the only part of the game you see the spell. Why they made it a drawable spell? I don't know. I casted it on her for looks, but it doesn't do much to her. But it'll devastate you without Shell or full HP, so be careful.

Ultimecia is the only one of two bosses (Omega) who won't die to one Lion Heart. The only difference is Ultimecia has instances of 0 HP where even if you reduce her HP to 0, she won't die. This is because she has fixed dialog she speaks. She can still attack at these points too, so don't doze off. But if you reduce her HP to 0 that fast, all you have to do is attack her once with anything and she'll go right to the next fixed dialog. I only used Limits to make it look cooler. When she says "And...", then the next hit kills her.

And thus ends the final battle, once and for all. After an overdramatic death scene, the ending begins. It starts off kind of slow, but picks up. I left in part of it so the two ending videos after this meet Youtube's Limit. In short about the final battle, it's one of the more challenging final bosses in the FF series. It's my favorite overall. The final battle music here is great, starting off slow, then going epic.

mr fatachu, I can identify with you. This was my first FF too, playing it when I was 5. Ultimecia scared you? Heck, Cactuar nearly made me burst to tears back then.

Music is cool and awsome. Imo though Neo-Exdeath was a far scarier "I will ensure that nothing in the entirety of the cosmic multiverse exists --- ever" monster.

music is awesome :D

[Anemite]

ultimecia final form is a dejavu from neo exdeath (main villain transform in some grotesque form and his personality is changed by a "destroy everything"

@Bizkit047 Part of the experience of these games is becoming immersed in these battles...the music, the challenge and all. Leveling up is no fun...but I loved to milk a battle sometimes just to hear the badassery of the music.
