10 Video Games That Let You DESTROY The Final Boss

Final Fantasy V wasn't the first in the series to have Job mechanics, but it was the first entry to showcase how this system could impact the gameplay. After mastering the Skills of a Black Mage, Monk, or Knight, they can be assigned to Bartz's team permanently. Since each party member can hold two Skills at once, the ensemble should be astoundingly powerful by the end.

However, it's quite likely they'll be a little too powerful. By assigning the right combination of Skills, our heroes have almost no chance of losing, not even against the final boss, Exdeath.

Because Bartz's squad consists of four characters, they can hit the maniacal warlock four times upon each turn. But by equipping X-Fight, the players' attack allowance quadruples. When this ability is combined with Dual-Wield, Bartz and his friends can strike Exdeath 32 times... in one go!

And that's just one example. Using Spellblade with Rapid Fire lets the gang bombard Exdeath with devastating magic. By equipping everyone with Summon, Bahamut can be unleashed four times in a row, decimating Exdeath before he has a chance to attack once.
