Final Fantasy V - Omega

And now, IMO, the hardest one of the two optional super bosses in FFV. Omega comes before Shinryu in the final dungeon, but that doesn't mean he's easier. I see people complain about how hard Shinryu is a lot, and say Omega isn't too bad. When you compare these two videos to my two Shinryu clips, I must ask why. Omega seems to be able to counterattack you many, many times in a row, before you get to move again. And his attacks are extremely lethal. And before someone points out the obvious, no, it is not because I use Sshot. I tried without Sshot, and he still counter attacked a bazillion itmes. I don't know if it's like this in the FFV remakes, but he's definitely tough to beat.

Anyway, Omega is weak to Bolt, so if you have the Sorcerer ability, use Bolt 3 on your sword(s) and use Sshot for an attempt at an easy win (assuming you even get the chance). Haste 2 is very important here, and Fire Rings should be worn to absorb his Atom Ray if he uses it for a free heal (pray he does use it often). His deadly attacks are his Beam Cannon which does 1300+ to everyone, Atom Ray (1500+?) to everyone, Encircle (instantly kill someone and takes them out of the fight), Rocket Missle (does 300+ damage and confuses target), Rainbow Wind (blinds opponent), and Delta Attack (petrifies). The fact he can spam these moves whenever makes him tough. As you see in my second clip, you can tell how unfair he can be. I almost lost the first clip as it was. He also has an insane evade rate, and normal physical attacks will be difficult to land, making Sshot even more useful. I heard there's an easy strategy with a Bard song, but I never tried it or had it. Oh well, enjoy.

Holy smokes. you WERE NOT whistling-dixie about Omega being so cheap. I gotta concede the point, he was nerfed to all hell in advance remake. He certainly never gave me this much trouble....

@KarateKidX However, running away from battles with the Brave Blade will decrease it's power. Plus, the Brave Blade starts with 200 ATK, and maxed out, the Chicken Knife has 250 ATK. It's actually a pretty awesome deal for just running away from 255 battles to get the Chicken Knife.
