It is if you've never been able to beat him, since you got to him almost THREE EFFING YEARS AGO!

Also, how do you do that, is it just on the grid, or is it an armmament?

eh Barbos gets pretty annoying at the start or if you don't do the secret mission with him in Tales of Vesperia. (Except that I don't see any reason to not do said mission] Sure only one mob is powerful and he had weak enemies but there was strength in numbers since I recall at least ten enemies on the screen plus barbos at once when I was trying to destroy the bridges.

There was this one mini-bossfight in Persona 3 that would've been easy as hell if it weren't for GODDAMN MARIN KARIN.

Like, the freaking thing would be almost dead, and then it would charm Mitsuru and Yukari and they'd cast freaking Diarama on it until it was full health again. GRARGH.

It isn't HARD to get its HP down, but it takes forever and with it getting fully healed every time it's almost dead, it was flippin' annoying.
I believe in second chances, and that's why I believe in you.

^Friendly fire kills? Usually works for stuff like that if the game lets you.

All the optional wanted list fights from Skies of Arcadia. They were not meant to be a side quest for either the low-leveled or the easily frustrated.

That bomb thing from FFIV. I get killed before I can heal anyone after its cheap explosion attack.

I didn't think the bombs were that hard n either the SNES OR The DS version. I knew what was going on in the DS version though.

Annoying boss fight huh? The Crystal thing from Dark Alliance: Baldur's Gate.

Often bosses throw waves of enemies at you, but that's ALL this guy does. I had to run away, blast them with magic as the Elf, rinse and repeat, using like 50+ mana potions.

^^Explode did more damage in the DS version. A lot of the enemies on the Moon are also tougher in the DS version. -CSM

Is it possible to kill the big bomb thing before it goes off? Because nothing I've tried has worked for surviving the 800 damage explosion/six clones afterward.
