8 More Optional Superbosses Who Totally Destroyed Players

4. Yiazmat - Final Fantasy XII

I'm sorry, how much health does this thing have? 50 MILLION HP on the PS2? that's utterly ridiculous! This entry is a callback to the Adamantoise from FFXV, which made it onto the first list, but honestly you have to have balls and a bladder of steel want to go toe to toe with this optional superboss.

To unlock the privilege of dying of old age before beating it you need to have bested the Hell Wyrm and nearly all of the other top ranked Hunt missions, and this totally isn't worth it in my opinion.

The battle goes on for so long that even Boss Fight Database, a YouTube Channel that decided to capture the entire fight on camera, had to speed it up to almost lightspeed levels in order to fit it all into a manageable video. And you will be wishing you could fast forward through this encounter, seeing as you can't ever do more than the damage cap to Yiazmat, nor does the fight require that much effort. It's just blind luck whether it'll hit with it's Death infused attacks and party wipe you, but because of the amount of time it takes to best the beast, it's going to happen at one point or another, and any boss that needs more prayers than tactics is a huge no from me.
