TBH, that boss was mere wakeup boss quality, not final boss quality. I can see where you're coming from in that regard.

Still, though, A Dark version of Cruel Ruin, Djinn Blast, as well as a few others... it did have some pretty decent attacks. I'm actually glad it's not a Dragon, and in fact I love how they actually approached it. But again, I wish the game had overall higher difficulty.

I beat it in two turns summon rushing Eclipse. Summon rushing on Doom Dragon, I'd take out one head and run out of summons.

Granted, I did lose half my party in the process, but multitudes of strength doesn't make up for lack of defence =/.

No fun using summons. Fight like men. And women. And women who dress like men.

I was completely expecting a four headed dragon....Glad it was something else and I agree that the game needs a overall higher difficulty I barely had trouble with any of the bosses.

The new Duo were a complete joke.

An underwhelming final boss, design-wise and music-wise. The music didn't get me pumped up at all, and I felt like I was fighting some random generic enemy. The fight itself was kinda tough though.

Also, will Camelot ever get tired of the fusions/multiple heads?

You're not afraid of the dark, are you?

At least this fusion wasn't intentional! He did have multiple arms this time, too.

The good news is, it's very likely the sequel won't have a mutated fusion puppy as the final boss, since you killed the dog guy already.

The sequel boss will definitely have tentacles.

I dunno, I thought it was pretty good. For one, you couldn't utterly breeze through it like the rest of the game. Granted I always play underleveled, but even so.

Kuroi, you summon rushed. >_> You can't complain about the difficulty.
I dunno, I was pretty tense and pumped up about it. I thought it was completely badass, was thankful it wasn't a dragon, and while I agree the music wasn't as awesome as it could have been, it was still awesome.

Role, what level were you when you fought it? I was like, 43...?

I don't mind the game's difficulty, considering I mainly play for plot (and gameplay is just a way of reinforcing plot to me), but I do agree it was painfully easy. I don't think I had a party member actually die from something that wasn't Condemn once before the final boss fight.
I think they could've amped up the difficulty a lot, though, by not giving you time to prepare beforehand. >_> As in, heal with everyone, set djinn on standby, etc.

This. All of it. I struggled against the final boss for over half an hour and by Kraden did I enjoy it. There were multiple times during the fight I was convinced I was gonna lose, but I managed to pull through. It was possibly my most epic fight in the Golden Sun series yet. But yes, Blados and Chalis were very pathetically easy. It was disappointing, really. But the final boss made up for it.

I was proud the fact I actually rendered his djinn blast ineffective

Chaos Chimera uses Djinn Blast
Amiti was UNAFFECTED

I happened to have exhausted his djinns just beforehand ON THE SAME TURN

WHERE WAS THE LUNA PSYNERGY BLADOS AND CHALIS YOU SAID THERE WOULD BE LUNA PSYNERGY

The only luna power they seemed to use was the dark shield thing. Evidence that Luna really is a negating power? Perhaps.

If those psy grenades are their power as well, then I guess their power sort of drains away and is negative.

Who are you referring to, the duo or the final boss?

TBH, I was probably overleveled for both fights (Oddly, unlike in my past, I never, ever, went on grinding trips), but the final battle was even worse because I tried getting some drops (before getting REALLY nervous about my level and abandoning that idea. Of course, the FREAKING STAR MAGICIAN DIDN'T HELP ANY >_>).

56 or 57.

Ironically, he was HARDER in my recent late 70s fight. Apparently, the difficulty of the boss directly corresponds to how much it decides to spam Djinn Blast.
