warmech

[Zeromus_X]

Warmech. hes and original "weapon" of sorts. even if he doesnt randomly use cure4 on himself, hes still tougher than chaos, easily. i tried(foolishly) to defeat this inhuman fiend, and got nuked more than enough times than neccessary
has anyone ever beaten this heartless weapon of mass destruction? if so, how?

notes: in Dos and origins , hes called "Death Machine" which sounds cool too, but doesnt have the awesomeness of "Warmech" ah....Warmech....

i had the misfortune of running into it on the way to tiamat...had to climb the tower and all ..all over again...*sniff*

 

[ShadowHeart]

Heh, I've never randomly run into it on the way to Tiamat, but I did try to fight it once (just ran back and forth until it appeared). Well, I lost Never tried again since then, but maybe I should if I play the game again

Warmech or "Death Machine" is really easy. beat him in about 2 turns.

 

[ShadowHeart]

Glad you think that! So the rest of us can feel really bad!

He was called Death Machine in the Original Japanese version I almost beat him, but my master got nuked and stuff... *whaaa* *NOTE* my master could easily do more than 1500 damage on any boss except Chaos ^^

Warmech or "Death Machine" is really easy. beat him in about 2 turns.

well, did you max out everyone on DoS? the difficulty level is absurdly toned down in that game. (see the ff4 for gba thread for a list of differences.)

in the original nes version (maybe origins too?) he is an emotionless hulking behemoth bent on mass genocide. (in other words, hes really really very very difficult.) reminds me of darksteel collosus ....

nuke, attack, nuke, you get the idea. he puts the smackdown on these new age "weapons"...young naive whippersnappers

whew...ranting...but yes, hes very hard.

and note: once again, in my last playthrough of ff1 for the nes, i ran into it on tiamat... i did happen to run away though. my friends were laughing hysterically...

 

[LoKuS]

I was playin DOS and i was fairly strong. But i agree that DoS is pretty easy.

 

[ShadowHeart]

Eh, well try fighting it on the original or Origins in Normal mode before you talk! Apparently DoS is a lot easier

 

[LoKuS]

I beat the game in Origins, however i dont remember if i fought warmech or not.

Ha ha ha good said ShadowHeart.

 

[ShadowHeart]

Well, completing the game in Origins can be easy if you have it on Easy mode You're not limited to at most 9 useages per spell level and you level up much faster, unlike Normal mode On Normal mode you probably won't get much higher in level than level 30, maybe 40 if you go nuts with the leveling.. on Easy mode you would be level 41 with the same amount of exp that gives level 30 on Normal, and level 54 with the same amount of exp that gives level 40 on Normal

But in any case.. if you beat Warmech on Origins, then I may be impressed At least if you did it on Normal mode..

 

[Zeromus_X]

you can go above level 50 on origins or is that just on easy? now my old school ff nitpicking is kicking in...i may only be able to consider the nes one the only choice to play ff1....unfortunately, that may be very difficult to obtain for some people ^^;;; )

 

[ShadowHeart]

Yeah, on Easy mode they raised the level cap to 99, so technically you can go all the way there but that would take a while

Well the only way I beat him in ff1(nes) was with my maxed out master. I wanted to do the "one character challenge" thing and chose bb, but it got boring so I leveled my other characters one by one.
When I fought warmech I know my master was maxed, and I think the rest of my party was in the 30s (not sure on this one).

 

[richboywonder]

that part was hard

 

[ChocoboMan]

There really easy for me.

 

[Zeromus_X]

If it was the DoS version, then yeah, he won't really be that hard. Go play the original or Origins and see how well you do.

I never met him on normal mode on the psone version but it showed up on easy mode and did alot of damage but I beat it.

 

[Phoenix Flame]

I've got a deathwish...what makes this guy so difficult? Is it just the amount of damage he dishes out/turn, or is he somewhere that takes a lot of healing to get to before fighting him -using up your MP? ...I'm on origins now.

 

[dappa]

The thing is with him he dont show up very often. I only ever came across it once on the way to tiamat.

He occasionally shows up in that section where you walk up to tiamat or sometimes in that section where if you dont walk in the right direction you can get lost as the area keeps repeating itself.
