Ozma is an important, much needed lesson.

It's not a terrible reason at all, as it's fairly likely the original intent behind his name in Japanese. "Der Richter" is also the original name of Penance in the Japanese versions of the game that have it.

For another piece of trivia related to this tangent, Ozma's name as shown in the original design diagram for FFIX is "O.Z.M.A." It's possible the localization team either didn't have access to the source and just translated directly from the pronunciation, or simply decided it was easier to call "Ozma."

Ozma was an amazing fight, wiped a few times but it was amazing especially when you beat it!

I think Orthros is a wolf in Greek myth so that might be the problem.

I can only imagine what it would be like to have ozma as a school teacher.No will fail in class.Ever.

I wish most of my Wiping City groups even got to Ozma. All but one of my attempts at this raid ended at the 2nd boss.

'Worst'? It's a fan favourite.

I love that ozma fight !! It's so fun and visually appealing, I love the black hole. And it's SO easy! The phases are so easy to read. Now the guy before him with the zombification and mega deaths now THAT MOFO! He can go shove it >:[ I had the hardest time understanding his mechanics.

If you recalled the Yunalesca fight in FFX you should have gotten the reference to the Megadeath mechanic fairly quickly. The only part where I failed was realizing that one puddle = good, two puddles = bad. It didn't occur to me that it would apply both stacks of the zombie debuff at the same time so I beat on our poor SMN for a while with my Astroglobe after.

which is why ppl will complain, until they nerf it, so they can continue being lazy.
that's what happened with every other content in the game, and what will continue happening with all future content.
it's always faceroll or riot.

The thing I like about ozma is that in ff9 he really wasn't difficult, there was just no guarantee you would win when you fought him, like he could open the fight with meteor and wipe you before you even got a turn.

In ffxiv he's not difficult really the mechanics are very basic. But there's no guarantee you'll win cause if the other alliance wipes he drops their meteor on you. So it's kinda well represented of the ff9 one. Lol
