10 Best Boss Battles In Final Fantasy History - Ranked
7. WarMECH – Final Fantasy I
WarMECH was the optional robot fight in an otherwise medieval
fantasy styled world. This not only served to help WarMECH stand out,
but was a hugely intimidating surprise.
The fight starts with WarMECH getting a pre-emptive strike, and it's not afraid to use it's Nuke attack frequently, which severely damages the party. It's resistant to most magic and, in an added twist, the newer versions of the game gave it the ability to regenerate 5% of it's health each turn.
It was also quite unprecedented at the time that any other boss in the game should rival the challenge of the final main game boss. While Chaos remains the hardest boss in the original Final Fantasy, WarMECH had equivalent HP, hit just as hard, and proved to be a real challenge for players.
WarMECH makes the list as one of the best Final Fantasy Boss Battles for a number of reasons. Not only was it a good fight that was tough without relying on cheap tactics, but it was also arguably the first superboss.
The tradition of finding secret super enemies in Final Fantasy games to challenge your skills beyond the main game all started with this bipedal robot.
