Please stop making bad videos like this, it people like you perpetuating the myth that VII was anything more than a mediocre title in a great series. Swap Sephy and Arden and your list would be infinitely better. Also hell of a job kicking 1.0 XIV, sadly that's not really the game anymore.
@@skillganon606 What's wrong?
Kefka deserves number 1
Thank you for excluding Yu Yevon and including Braska Final Aeon. Yu Yevon is so easy he doesn't deserve to be called a boss or villain. I actually consider Seymour as Final Fantasy X's main villain.
Seymour def is
Seymour was a great villain.
I hated Seymour! He was such a bastard! But, that's what makes him a great villain.
Seymour is certainly the main villain, but Braska's Final Aeon is the final boss.
But we can all agree that FFX has so much depth that the answer isn't straightforward.
To bad because Yu Yevon is the final boss, just blame the makers for not making Yu Yevon a great final boss battle. I think Sin is the main villain.
I would have put Ardyn from XV up at the top.
I think the problem with Ardyn ( and FFXV in general) was how the story isn't flushed out in an intelligent manner. You need the movie, and the DLC , the animated short to piece it all together before you can appreciate his motives.
I would have put him at the top as well. He's my fav FF villain.
XV is the absolute bottom of the FF franchise for me. The combat is boring and the writing is a mile wide and an inch deep.
In terms of character backstory, I do think Ardyn is one of the best --- at least if you're willing to take the time to watch the Prologue and play the DLC. He does truly despicable and unforgivable things, but honestly, out of all the villains in the series, I think he has the most understandable reason for doing the things he does. Not because his brother hurt him and killed his fiancée necessarily, but because he was locked in isolation for thousands of years and then found out he was basically used as a pawn in a very long game to save a world that had betrayed and forgotten him despite his efforts to do the right thing.
Yeah, I think I would have a gone a bit nuts too.
People talk about Sephiroth all the time (which I'm not complaining --- Sephiroth is a great villain). And I think ultimately, it's because he's story is EXECUTED in a more engaging way. But if you remove that from the equation and just look at who got a more raw deal, I personally think Ardyn wins every time lol.
@@supremeoverlorde2109i agree. Looking back i think sephiroth’s motives were good but not as good as ardyn with great quotes “senseless lamb slaughter something something”. But in the end, Ardyn’s story had poor execution compared to sephiroth’s whose encounter uncover a lot of his character over time
Problem with the ardyn boss fight: Ardyn keeps standing still probably thinking #damn I'm hot" while noctis blitzes him with armiger
Ultimecia was my favorite. Another note, I had a crazy crush on Edea back in the days lol
Dissidia NT's Ultimecia is EXTREMELY HOT ! Probably the most beautiful FF female character ever !
It's okay bro ,we all did
Edea is best character female design hands down. FFVIII had the best character artwork designs classy, elegant, and yes charming. Minus Stephie, I hated her so much.
My favourite FF boss
I don’t know what it is about 13, but I didn’t absolutely “hate” it. It just had its moments that drug it down a lot. That said, I really enjoyed the battle system. I hope they don’t forget about this game and give us a rerelease on Switch, at least.
The only reason 7 isn't at the bottom of my list is the fact that 13 had the wrong combat system.
I absolutely hate the stagger mechanics... with a passion. Nothing makes me hate a game more that when you do say, 10% of your damage on normal attacks, except in a tiny window where you deal +4000% to make up for it... and window closes fast. If they want to make challenging monsters, fine, look to FF4 all the way thru FF6 and maybe FF7. Monster immunities, counter-attacks, energy absorption, changing weakness every few rounds, Heck even in FF10-2 (which was "okay" to be at best) the big bad optional boss could be beat by wasting your MP to zero, then changing to Rikku's mecha mode which did not use MP so you could kil boss without it leeching your MP and killing you with it. Ingenious !
But a darned stagger mechanic? get outta here. What a lazy and unimaginative mechanic.
@@Francois424 yet the battle mechanics for ff13 is considered one of the best parts of the game.
@@Urlastnerve Maybe to some ppl. But in my group of acquaintances, nobody liked it.
To be fair, the story kinda blew as well, so it's no wonder you'd find solace in the battles - provided you liked the mechanics.
I can't wait for them to switch back to more decent battle system (imho)... if they ever.
YMMV I guess.
@@Francois424 they aren’t going back to the old style. It’s in the past. Things have changed
So in FFXIV: your choices were Ultima Weapon, Knights of the Round, Shinryu, Hades and Endsinger..... and your pick was Nael? So yes, you 1000% didn't play XIV. Next!
Shadow Lord is a pretty meh selection as well. I know he was the Final Boss for the original storyline and most well known but I think there are better choices out there.
Thought the same loooooool 😂
They never actually show Bizarro Sephiroth, which is the part that actually require a little bit of thought since you can switch between different segments of your party.
Not to mention that how the battle with Bizarro Sephiroth goes (and by extension, also the battle with Jenova Synthesis) affects how much HP Safer Sephiroth has.
Of all the boss in 14, you chose the 1.0 one?
Seriously, at the very least Shadowbringers was out.
Then again, this is final bosses, and since the current iteration of 14 is still out, there technically *isn't* a final boss. So, the only way to include 14 would be to use the 1.0 version that is, by all intents and purposes, over.
I'm disappointed that Ardun is so low
He's easily top 3, you gotta remember mojo only employs idiots.
Okay I'm gonna be that guy and say it. Zenos from FF14 Endwalker should be on this list. I think you did 14 dirty by using 1.0s final boss.
You can tell they didn't play FF14 by putting fight with Nael from 1.0 instead of 2.0. Even now if you will go min ilvl no echo this fight is still hell.
Agreed, if endwalker is the finale of ffxiv's main story then Zenos is the true final boss.
Agreed, but they did say no sequels, spin offs or reboots.
ARR is a reboot and Endwalker is a sequel so they don't count.
That's why Caius Ballad, Bhunivelze and Shuyin don't appear on the list.
Was going to say the same thing 1.0 was considered a massive failure thats why they made ARR and then up to EW which is Amazing, beautiful and fun to play!
@@midarei he chose sephiroth as his number 1.
Sephiroth is cool, but Kefka is a much better villain and... he succeeded.
Cant believe Ardyn was so low. But I admit I am probably biased because I've only played like 4 FF games. Still, Ardyn was one charismatic villain.
They didnt play the DLC obviously 😅
From a character perspective, yes, Ardyn was quite unique. But in terms of battles, the final battle with Ardyn is quite anticlimactic compared with the rest of the game.
@@hypnometal Yeah, if we were straight ranking overall Antagonists Ardyn would be top 3 in my opinion, but the final fight with him wasn't anything special so I can understand the low ranking. Sephiroth's final fight wasn't all that great either and shouldn't be anywhere near #1 on the list. As for the MMO's, they are tough to rank since there are so many different storyline "final" bosses to choose from. FFXI alone has about a dozen to choose from.
@@hypnometal Ardyn's battle is in 3 phases and is the most realistic of all, since at the end both Noctis and Ardyn are tired.
@@groudonvert7286 Again, I agree with you from the viewpoint of the storytelling. But from the gameplay, not so much. The battles with the Ancient Kings in the Royal Edition were much more robust and epic than the battle with Ardyn.
Not surprising Sephiroth was #1. He is probably the most iconic though Kefka could have def been 1 too. Sephiroth just wins the popularity contest I guess lol
I think Sephiroth looks have something 2 also 2 do with it
@@isaacmettle Lol he is both a badass and a pretty boy so he has that going for him
I wouldve put Kefka first entirely for being successful in destroying the world. Sephiroth is pretty badass though
@@forevermagus7706 Kefka was too easy to beat honestly. If he was harder I'd put him at #1
@@wiseguy240Winston I've always had easier time beating sephiroth. Plus with how broken the materia system is you can slaughter him super early
I like Kefka better than Sephiroth. He was chaotic and unpredictable in the game and a truly amazing villain.
Kefka ranks higher with Mojo as a villain actually.
In Dissida 012 Kefka was my main and he’s so fun to play especially in his EX mode
Kefka and Sephiroth are excelent antagonists in their own ways. But that final battles were easy. Even the Supernova is just an attack to scare you, it can't kill you.
Sephiroth is hard if you are low 60s, dont use KOTRT and Big Guard
@@savanpatel847I used both and destroyed him
Im so sick of Sephiroth at this point
Fighting Ultemecia at the end of FFVIII was indeed nightmarish. Till I realized that I had to well and truly go out of my way to prepare to fight her. Which always took one of two hours. Then fighting her was almost enjoyable. Almost. Great video.
My characters got so overlevelled before fighting Ultimecia, the final boss became anticlimactic, going down in a few hits
If you refine the Laguna card,you will get 100 hero item,then you can fight her easily!
@@hewmengshen7781---Yeah I discovered that too. And it was part of my battle preparations.
@@PrivateJoker0119---Leveling up a lot surely helped a lot.
Thanks for replying you guys.
Clearly didn’t do much homework on ffxiv lmao
The two versions of Cloud of Darkness in FFXIV look amazing and have great boss designs
you mean the Harley Quinn and Poison Ivy merge boss from Eden? :P
Put Vayne above Ardyn is like
Say you've never played FFXV without saying you've never played FFXV
...
You guys know that scene from Parappa the Rapper 2 where Parappa's watching a TV show with his friends, but he is vastly incapable of understanding it so he tries to fake it in a desperate sweaty attempt to seem like he has any idea what he's talking about?
We can agree that's every Watch Mojo list ever written, right?
Sephiroth is essentially immortal. He exists in the lifestream. Everytime you kill him he just goes back to the lifestream.
I felt inclined to say this for anyone who doesn’t already know: Final Fantasy 14 is such a damn good game. If you’ve never tried it, I highly recommend giving the free trial a go. You won’t want to stop playing
I gave the free trial a go, the best community I've seen in an mmo. I liked that if you didn't know what to do, other players were more than willing to help and explain things.
Honestly Bhunivlze from 13-3 is #1 for me in terms of all FF bosses. Hardest and most hype boss fight ever against a literal God.
You fight many gods in Final Fantasy games, Kefka is basically drinking three gods when you meet him at the end of VI. And as for difficulty there are a boat load of optional bosses that are harder.
I like Neo Exdeath from Final Fantasy V, Kefka (God of Magic) from Final Fantasy VI, Safer Sephiroth from Final Fantasy VII, Necron from Final Fantasy IX, Cloud of Darkness in Final Fantasy IV and Zeromus from Final Fantasy III.
1999?! For 5 and 6? Where the heck are you getting these dates?!
@@BJGvideos Final Fantasy Anthology is a 1999 PlayStation 1 game because it has two games in one like Final Fantasy V and Final Fantasy VII. Final Fantasy V is never been released in North America until 1999.
@@pasqualembisceglia1989 But you don't say Anthology. You list the games themselves.
@@BJGvideos Well yeah FF V and VI didn't release in the US till 99. Prior to that we only had I for the NES and II& III for the SNES. and VII and VIII for the play station.
@@skillganon606 6 was released in the US prior to that. It was called 3 but it was really 6.
I feel Kefka had a far more interesting story as a villain than Sephiroth. The man in black always felt bland.
Kefka is in your face almost non-stop. You hate the bugger very early on.
Sephiroth was just never around. Even when you thought he was it was jenova or a clone. It made him underwhelming for me. Kefka ardyn Seymour barthandelus kuja were always around scheming and getting their hands dirty.
I remember Braska being the hardest thing I’ve ever had to beat back when the game first came out. I didn’t fully understand the sphere grid and how you can unlock the whole thing so I just had everyone at the end of their own route and that’s it. He is an intense boss when you aren’t over leveled
I had no problem and i was 11-13. You just suck.
@@sinsung4159 😂😂 who pooped in your pudding young lady? I was 8. Go fuck yourself. Stop liking your own comments. ✌️
Braska? You don't fight braska
@@tiddles360 I meant to put Jecht but got my names mixed up.✌️
@@Urlastnerve ahhh I gotcha...I questioned myself for a second lol
I just love this list,because of this i remembered Chaos and i just feel better
Nael isn't the main antagonist of 14 past 1.x, which has been defunct for a very long time. As the servers don't actually include 1.x content after the launch of 2.x, SQEX instead revamped and added to the lore of the Meteor project and the fall of Dalamud, with Nael only appearing in a minor arc in the Coil raids and then never again after Turn 9 besides being a cameo appearance in the Ultimate fight. Hell, by the time you face "Nael" in 14 as the game is post 2.x launch, he's more or less already been dead for quite some time, with Bahamut having ripped his soul so far apart that when Bahamut tempered him to make him his minion he had to draw upon the physical manifestation of Nael's memories to even give him/her/it a body, which is why this variation of Nael has a female form despite being most definitely male in life.
For the past several years now (Stormblood onwards), Zenos Yae Galvus, while also being a Garlean like Nael was, is for all intents and purposes the main antagonist of the MMO despite him not appearing in Shadowbringers content for very, very obvious reasons.
True. But remember the rules state no sequels, reboots or spin offs.
And wether you like it or not, ARR is not the original FF14 but it's rebooted form and every expansion from Heavensward to Endwalker can be considered a sequel.
Say you've never played FF14 without saying you've never played FF14
Emet-Selch is the best anatagonist in the series by far.
You would think a group as big as 'watch mojo' would have someone that actually plays 14 and not the original that got wiped years ago.
I don't play mmos
@@WinkleAbiding To be fair they did say no spin off and Sequels. To an MMO, an Expansion is pretty much a Sequel story. So Mojo really needs to come back to a video just about FFXIV and all it's content.
@@KaeljainX still to that degree that only the base game which is ff14 a realm reborn the final boss is actually Lahabrea who strung along Gaius
I think Seymour deserves the spot than Braska's Final Aeon / Jecht
#2: "It could have easily been a toss-up between our top two..."
#1: "C'mon, could it have been anyone else?" :-D
I feel like this list lost a lot of credibility when the first entry is not only a.) basically putting the online games as glorified honorable mentions, but b.) you didn't even use the currently available FFXIV for your entry. Not gonna say Nael isn't worthy of being on a FFXIV boss list, but I think it does a disservice to the game, when you use the long since shut down 1.0 version to make your argument about "why they aren't a good boss" While I would get saying "The online titles are too hard to rank since they are an ever expanding universe, and deserve a list of their own for each," to basically be like "*pfft* Online Final Fantasy games aren't TRUE entries", comes off as a very dated opinion, especially given the notoriety both games have nowadays.
Yes new video thanks
OK, let's compare this list to the TV Tropes Awesome Boss section:
Chaos: should be below Matteus, regardless of being ahead of its time in terms of visuals, because it only had 2000 HP in the original release (though the Pixel Remaster's better). Also, should be above Cloud of Darkness.
Matteus: the Ensemble Darkhorse of NES era villains, plus the Dawn of Souls Remake means you get to fight him again! Plus, all the fights were consistent with the game's combat system regardless of quality overall.
Cloud of Darkness: vanilla final boss that comes out of nowhere.
Zeromus: another vanilla boss, this time with heavy attack spam in the first form.
Neo Exdeath: underrated villain, lives up to the hype in terms of difficulty.
Kefka: sequential, awesome visuals, Dancing Mad.
Sephiroth: Pros? Birth of a God, you fight with your entire team on the first phase, genuinely climactic, dynamic difficulty, One Winged Angel, Catharsis factor of using Omnislash finisher. Cons? constantly heals itself in first phase, hideously long attack animation in second phase.
Ultimecia: 4 phases, VFX of awesome, team members get taken out permanently, plus symbolism with Griever. Cons: dangerous if unprepared, summons phase 2 from nowhere, sequential marathon, can permanently take away party members, can nerf your stats, interrupts free summons.
Necron: Awesome Music, balanced challenge, good visuals. Cons: comes out of nowhere.
Jecht: Awesome Music, emotional ending. Cons: unstoppable long healing animation, easy if prepared, Yu Yevon.
Shadow Lord: vanilla forgettable villain.
The Undying: epic spectacle.
Orphan: highly challenging first form compared to somewhat challenging, less than impressive second form. Also, second form is immune to all forms of attack until staggered, casts doom on party leader, spams chain gauge reset.
Nael: vanilla forgettable villain.
Ardyn: mirror boss, VFX of Awesome, war of attrition, doesn't go One Winged Angel, emotional final phase. Cons: a little more understated compared to other non-vanilla bosses, surprising difficulty spike, unpredictable move pool, interface screw, you can be overleveled.
Overall, the list should be along the lines of: Nael, Shadow Lord, Orphan, Jecht, Cloud of Darkness, Chaos, Zeromus, Matteus, Ultimecia, The Undying, Necron, Ardyn, Neo Exdeath, Sephiroth, Kefka
But note: Shadow Lord, Nael and Ardyn aren't meant to be the final bosses of their games. These are: Cloud of Darkness (still kinda vanilla), Zenos (awesome spectacle despite being Post-Final Boss) and Bahamut (probably would've been an upscaled version of the Comrades version, which in itself is one of, if not THE best boss fights in the game, alongside being made by Team FFXIV with Nobuo on music. Sadly, it's only found in novel format).
And special mention to Bhunivelze: it's God, some of the best visuals, Hypernova, four forms. Cons: Final-Exam Boss from Hell, annoying final phase unless you know what you're doing.
So the list should be like this: Jecht, Cloud of Darkness/III, Cloud of Darkness/XI, Chaos, Zeromus, Zenos, Matteus, Ultimecia, The Undying, Necron, Bhunivelze, Neo Exdeath, Sephiroth, Kefka, Bahamut (in terms of potential plus already having an extremely successful formula due to Comrades).
You chose Nael Van Darnus to represent XIV and put her at the bottom?
Like we didn't know Sephiroth would've been #1~
Literally was thinking this list like two days ago wishing someone did it
Ain't no way is Sephiroth's final boss better than Kefka's
Or even Ultemecia's 4 awesome phases.
12:20 If you search for the word Evil in the Dictionawy you'll find Kefka's name next to it. (Evilja)
You want to mention how supernova was an out of this world attack. Yet grand cross is equally devastating? Although I have to put out there that despite his skills and strength, Sephiroth fails to destroy the world with meteor. Do you wanna know who succeeded in that regard, and became a god in the process? Kefka. I think we all know who's better.
How did I know Sephiroth would be #1.
Predictable fans be predictable
Say you've never played FFXIV without saying you've never played FFXIV:
A 1.0 boss guys? Really? That shit hasn't been in the game for almost 10 years now.
NeoExdeath is my favorite classic era FF final boss, while Necron is my favorite PS1 era final boss, and Orphan being my best modern era boss, even if his final form is kind of a joke.
I guess they have not played Final Fantasy XIV yet . Emet Selch aka Hades would have topped this list easily
Character development 10/10
motives 1000/1000
narrative 10/10
Actual fight 100/100
Even after dying the guy comes back from the after life and save the hero from certain death. But sephiroth number 1 just because it's ff 7 lmao.
If we count Crisis core, all Sephiroth did in a nutshell was...
Rebel againt humanity and burned down a town killing a dozen people? I guess? Nibelheim was pretty small.
He technically died and fused the life stream.
Killed president shinra, controled cloud mind to give him the black materia so he could somehow destroy the planet so the planet would react to the threat, send in lifestream to combat and then he will absorb it converting himself in a god
Hit cloud with a materia in the head, I guess that counts too, and....that's it? I think most of his encounters throughout the original ff7 where not even Sephiroth but Jenova, which Sephiroth controlled. Jenova did not do anything just to be a regular boss and offer some dialogue here and then. But wait I am forgetting something super epic Am I not?
Yes, Sephiroth killed Aerith. That's his only memorable moment. Once again...it wasn't sephiroth, it was jenova shapeshifted as sephiroth
I would actually put Kefka over Sephiroth in this list because out of ALL the final bosses, Kefka actually accomplished what he wanted to do: destroy the world. And he did that before the beginning of the second half of FFVI
“I will never be a memory”
Kuja kinda did the same but it wasn't the primary world
Kefka had a better story and character progression as well, but 7 was the "commercial" Hit so 6 will never get the praise it should.
Did my man Ardyn dirty
Awesome
I heard about how every enemy levels with you in VIII and I got to the final boss. They kept out healing my damage so it was literally impossible to beat so I gave up
Kuja is technically not the final boss, but damn would he rank high on this list.
I expected the top spot but in all actuality I don’t consider his final boss fights to be all that compared to 2 or even 3.
To this day I feel like the creation process for VII was "What if we make VI again but worse in every way?"
1. I never played 9 but it still blows my mind that FF8 seems to have better graphics than FF9 (from an outside view). That have really pushed the limits of the PS1.
2. You know Supernova was one-of-a-kind because One Winged Angel as a song has a part that plays specifically during the attack.
I actually really liked Ardyn as an antagonist and as a person. Hear me out: He WAS a good person, once upon a time, and it wasn't until he was desperate enough to demonify his first victim when he starts losing his humane side. According to the story, every time he demonified someone, he absorbed their memories and started losing what was his and what was others' memories. His descent into an evil character was because of his own heartbreak and betrayal against him. The poor guy.
I think FFXIV got poorly represented here by only looking at 1.0. Like yeah no wonder it sucked lol
Definitely should’ve looked at Endwalkers final boss as it ends the story arc that’s been going on for 8 years. Or if you wanted to avoid spoilers, even Shadowbringers story final boss would’ve been a great one
I'd rather not have Hades get spoiled in a watch MOJO vid. They should have just mentioned Lahabrea. That is the real final boss of the definitive version of the game, since you can't play 1.0.
... you guys never actually played a FF game have you? It's your experience, or lack of in this case, so I'll have to respect your ranking. But in what world is Ardyn bellow Orphan or Vaine? You guys don't have a clue of the villains backstory do you?
This was a very biased countdown based on game's popularity and not the actual antagonist. Case in point, you placed Sephiroth at number one - the popular choice. This was quite the dispointing video...
Yeah I feel ya bro. I actually had to stop once I seen Kefka at 2. This list was for sure made with popularity of character. Ardyn was one of my favorite bosses of all time. His whole backstory, just him as a character, it was a breath of fresh air. In the end, he also wins...Line of Lucis ends and he finds peace in death.
😭😭😭😭
My favorite villain is not in the rank I wanted.
😭 😭 😭
That's the summary of this comment.
It's called an opinion. Get over it.
I think Seymour is more of the final boss than Yu Yevon!
Genuinely psyched that Ultimecia was this high in the list... gobsmacked you placed The Emperor that high though (there are going to be some ecstatic FF2 fans). But SURPRISE SURPRISE you just had to give the top spot to Sephiroth....don't get me wrong, I love him as an antagonist, but this fight just wasn't as good as the multi-parters (Kefka & Ulti). The amount of times I thought I had beaten those two and was subsequently proven very wrong was more than I care to admit lol (yes I know Seph has more than one form too... but that was a separate battle).
Oh and personally, I would have counted Sin as the Final boss for X....if your not going to count Yu Yevon that is. Given that Sin is the main antagonist for pretty much ALL of the game, and a FAR more iconic/epic fight than Braska's Final Aeon... probably would have counted the final Kuja fight for IX instead of Necron too to be fair....
Final Fantasy does have a tendency to occasionally just, "drop" an (pretty much irrelevant) extra Final Boss into the mix...even if they have no canonical reason to be there...
*cough *cough
"Cloud of Darkness, Necron, Yu Yevon...(and although I'd rather not admit it... Ultimecia is sailing damn close to the wind there too...it did get pretty damn far into the game before she even got mentioned).
Im sorry did ultimecia have her own theme song which was the first vocalization in the ff series? No, aight then, don't be a baby plus 8 was garbage
@@chewydog77 Bless...what a well reasoned and thoughtful response...
I love 6 and the last boss but 7 is still better for me. There was so much shit that led up to sephiroth and it just felt like a huge "this ends now" finale compared to 6 even though 6 felt that way too. It was also alot more emotionally impactful to me.
Did you know that if all your characters are 99 sephiroth will be 99 and be the hardest thing you inadvertently did
ff12 imo is so underrated and really was the last great ff game made,as ff16 for me was not anything i'd play let alone call a ff game,just started another playthrough of ff10 and omg i remember why i love all those older games with Tidus dealing with father issues,Wakka dealing with losing his brother,Kimari and him being small and his kind making fun of him,theres just so much going on and we have the sphere grid and weapon looting and rpg element's,sad the way Final Fantasy games are a shell of their former self's.
Braskas final aeon was really tough
1 Ultimecia
2 Sephiroth
3 Kefka
4 Necron
5 Jetch
Kefka and Sepiroth are better villains for sure. But as a final boss fight Ultimecia blows them all away. Ultimecias castle was a fantastic final area as well.
Throughout the story of Final Fantasy 15, I thought Ardyn was pretty much the best-written Final Fantasy antagonist since Sephiroth. However, having only one form to fight against, and the battle being 1-on-1 only... that seemed kind of lack-luster for a Final Fantasy game. I do understand the story reason why it would be 1-on-1, but I still think it could have been improved upon maybe by having the battle start with the full party vs. Ardyn, and then having Noctis go 1-on-1 with a second form or something.
And now there is Ultima from Final Fantasy 16. That battle had the boss go through multiple forms... disappointingly, none of them being named "Ultima Weapon"... That one did begin as a 3-vs-1 battle, and did end as a 1-on-1 battle. That seemed much more satisfying.
Well the Endsinger from FFXIV set out to destroy the entire universe and was pretty successful with it... but I guess we go with an army general...
FFX Jecht battle ost was so epicccccc
Also Bhunivelze and Endsinger are my 2 favourite final bosses.
For me Orphan would be last when it comes to favorites. He has that very hated instant kill move where it sounds like a heartbeat and if your main character gets hit it is game over thx to the FF13 battle system.... I once had death resist at +66% and it still killed me (I actually flipped my controller in frustration after that). I do enjoy Neo ExDeath and his boss music, but the spot is probably right cause his Grand Cross move is such a pain and a possible wipe as well (I once got hit and it gave me death, zombie, zombie, near-death and zombie is literally worse than death in FFV).
I'm sorry...but Ultimecia as "one of the most difficult?" Absolutely not lol. Granted the first time i played through the game I used a guide and had 100 Ultima on everyone. But I have played through FFVIII multiple times after the fact without doing any sidequests or trying to get extra magic other than what I would draw from the battles I ran into, and I don't recall ever losing to her.
she's really not that hard to defeat, but I think she has a fair ranking because the battle is very memorable and iconic
@LyntzbartzkyPerez Iconic, yes, absolutely. I just never had an issue defeating her. I think she's the only FF final boss that I didn't lose to on the first try. And after playing through the game multiple times without farming spells for Junction, I still had no issue. Then again, I have a very biased opinion about most FF games. So maybe it's just me haha.
I'm glad Ultimecia was top 3. I grew up playing 8
I don’t get the ranking for these bosses, are they ranked on looks? Difficulty? Backstory?
Nael is absolutely not appropriate cause it’s before ARR which means you are a little bit behind.
The first guy must've been before reborn. As a avid player now. I never heard of him.
"I mean, come on. Could it have been ANYONE else?"
Yes, it should have been Kefka, and not the person who is popular because he is popular.
Exactly what I said brother exactly what I said
There is a reason Final Fantasy 6 is my favorite video game of all time and not Final Fantasy 7
12:20 - 13:18 _"Life...Dreams...Hope...Where'd they come from? And where are they headed...? These things... I'm going to destroy!"_
Safer Sephiroth is basically Final Kefka with the same style attacks, just replace Forsaken with Supernova.
In what world is Shadow Lord the final boss for FF11 lmao. Hes not even the last boss in any storyline
I love final fantasy X but the end boss fights suck ass they build sin up all game than you fight it and you can't lose so disappointing when expecting to fight a giant
Emet Selch???
Jecht should be number 1 for his soundtrack.
idk why but i had more of an issue fighting Barthandelus in his first two fights
I would put Bhunivelze,Elgo,Kefka and Ultima weapon is my favorite last bosses.
This vid loses all credibility when Emet Selch is not at least top 3 final bosses in all FF. Let alone nowhere on this list. Shame.
Orphan was hard as hell be beat. It took like 7 attempts to finally win
I literally just beat him and it took me 1 try for both bosses, only had to do the second phase twice cause of the instakill. Guess I just farmed too much and got lucky lol
@@anarche8127 maybe because if you don't farm levels on this game
IT WILL THROW A BLANKET OVER YOU AND TURN YOU INTO SUBWAY WHILE IT MAKES YOU CALL IT DOMINO'S
Orphan is really tough if you don't spend time leveling up and getting better equipment. My first playthrough I had terrible stats and equipment and struggled badly, but the second one I was much better prepared and beat him easily.
Sephiroth was the easiest final boss in final fantasy history. & 2nd the #1 ranked final boss would either be Kefka or Ultimecia because it did require your characters to be in top condition. While Sephiroth's last fight required your characters to be at least a Lv 50, with no high level materia, no ultimate weapons & final limit breaks. But Sephiroth is still one the greatest but not the greatest.
Was okay til you commented on “the thing” being similar to Braska’s final aeon.. ones fluffy with horns the other has chest bursting aliens 🤣🤷♀️
Sephiroth is overhyped, and Kefka is underplayed. But if I had a say Emet-Selch would've been my top antagonist.
I figured the top three would be from Final Fantasy VI, VII, and VIII.
I’m just playing this video and I wanna say that if Kefka isn’t number one, I’m gonna lose my shit.
Edit: COME ON!!!!
The thing about Sephiroth js that hes a cake walk if h took down the weapons🤷🏿♂️
9:16 you made a Mistake by putting Final Fantasy "1990" when it actually released in 1987.
I exited this video as soon as I saw Nael van Darnus as the single entry for FF14's villain, but then I re-opened the window to downvote it and comment here. The Mojo series of channels has always had dubious quality for their various lists at best, but by defining Final Fantasy XIV by a villain that you literally cannot even fight anymore, because the servers with 1.0 haven't been around for a decade, then you're just doing wrong by the content you're promoting, and you're treating your viewers like they're idiots. Shame on you, @MojoPlays
Supernova was so overpowered, I literally took weeks to get all of the characters to 9999 so I could do good, and supernova literally kills all if not 2 and my strategy to that was to give a mega elixir to cloud before his move ( yes I learned when he would use it and all his moves before supernova ) and then at least have cloud cure all of them. It was painful and so stressing
So you're saying you never actually played FF7 then. Because Supernova literally cannot kill you.
@@virgilherring581 I played the ps4 version, idk if that changes anything but this winter I’m gonna play it on the og ps1. It killed the other 2 players I had ( tifa and cid ) but cloud had some kind of disease or I forgot what it’s called. Yk those types of things you get
@@-itz_justandy3262 the disease was revealed in the Advent Children movie being called Geostigma. there is a way to cheese Sephiroth in the PS4 and Switch versions. first play the whole game with unlimited HP/MP and Limit Break and X3 speed on and grind each character's limit breaks then collect their ultimate limit breaks like Cloud's Omni-Slash for example as you go then when you reach Jenova and Sephiroth keep the unlimited HP/MP and Limit break on and spam limit breaks. the quicker you kill Jenova the more likely you'll have your entire in-game party Vincent and Yuffie included and Aerith excluded when you face Sephiroth.
2 Kefka "honestly, it could've easily been a toss up between our top 2 picks"
1 Sephiroth "cmon could it have been someone else?!"
Ehhhh you just said Kefka, Sure Mojoplays.....xD
Good video but the top 2, Kefka shoulda been #1 over Sephiroth. Just cause Kefka achieved his goal in becoming a god whereas Sephiroth was just a manufactured thing.
Nael and 1.0 FFXIV?, ok you guys have never actually played the game.
Emet Selch is up there with Sephiroth
Emperor Should be below Jecht but thats me
Sephiroth, the Snow White Anti-Christ. (Of the FF Universe).
Yes they summoned the magus sisters!
This guy sounds like he's falling asleep
Um.. they posted the boss from 1.0 that's not 14... FF14 has easily the best villain in any FF game.
