The hardest fights I've been in were hard for the wrong reasons lol

They were clearly meant to sell premium resurrection items from the micropayment shop

PW was beat plenty of times before level cap, my linkshell being one of them, so was AV....you could argue the dark knight KC zerg method which was nerfed after was the only time but still it was beat, and im pretty sure it was even beat after that by Excellence Linkshell.

The ways to kill these mammoth NMs was was considered an exploit by S-E and thus nerfed into the ground. While you can argue the semantics of "yes, they were killed", I personally believe S-E nerfing the "exploit" into the ground kinda illegtimizes the kill, and I'd imagine many would feel the same.

[Edit] I have personally never heard of anyone killing PW / AV in a fashion envisioned by S-E, but at the same time, I will admit that I wasn't keeping up well with the raid scene at the time. First time I heard about PW was during it's 16 hour stint with a LS that couldn't beat it within that time frame, and then kinda went to learn about AV from there. Leaves me to believe that very very few Linkshells, if any, actually beat these two in the way S-E wanted them too.

Absolute Virtue and Pandemonium Warden from FFXI.

Which one was abandoned after (straight) 18 hours if fighting by an entire link shell a couple years ago?

Having never made it to AV PW in FF11. The closest mmo boss for me was Dark Falz on very hard mode. (Before the game hacks broke PSO).

One the L50 Iron Giants which were out at tranquil during the Beta testing. I think the level cap was 35 and the giant was L50. We were there for literally 3-4 or more hours. Towards the end there was easily a couple of hundred of us there, even Yoshi-P dropped in for a while. We managed to get it down to about 20% when the testing servers closed. I wish we could allowed to post pictures of that, but it was during a pre-P3 session so the testing agreement thing is still in place. Anyone else still remember that.

Pandemonium Warden. Some of the members became ill, fainted/vomited after raiding for too long and it went into the news.

Absolute Virtue is no better either. A boss that can use Benediction on him/herself isn't particularly funny (although it can be sealed).

Defending a relic keep from 200+ other players, while at the same time trying to take back regular keeps in order to strengthen said relic keep, as well as keep a supply line for materials going to repair and strengthen keep doors. Then do this for hours and hours on end until the enemies finally gave up.

DAoC at its best

I've never been very good at 'hard' content. I'm not nearly that pro at the game to fight the toughest of the enemy elite. That being said, I think my hardest battles were some of the voidwatch enemies in FFXI. Those things had all kinds of nasty tricks, like death spells and so forth which made fighting them a real difficulty.

Manaya core hm from tera

Yes this xD I'll never forget this fight. That 1st horse ride down to the plexus...the fear ><

Quite interesting about those FF11 fights, feel sad for FF11 players xc
