Ozma

[Laerune]

I wonder if FFXIV will change it and transform Ozma during the fight? I mean we all know from lore point of view why Ozma looks like that, so maybe they will spice it up? Otherwise, I do think it looks very bad tho, even if this boss was a huge pain back in the day.

Depends on where/when we fight it in the Weeping City raid.

I want, I want! Part of me wants it to be an epic mega super world boss thing seeing that picture. XD

His main gimmick was if you attacked him while he waited for his turn, he would immediately take his turn, regardless on whether or not you already entered commands yourself. I never figured that out as a kid and relied on Eiko's auto-Phoenix as a crutch.

Anyone who faced Ozma is intended will certainly feel a pang of fear, it was genuinely nerve-wracking in its day. Depending on how they implement the Eidolon it could be the best fight yet.

If it's in The Weeping City of Mhach then its going to be much easier than in FFIX but if so I would like to see an Extreme version of it as a trial. It should be amazing, providing it's not tuned poorly. As a curve-ball it'd be fun if they made it (the EX trial) solo/pair queue only, to shake things up & prevent long established statics having all the fun before everyone else. ;P

If we're getting ozma then Hades is coming. But I want him as a extreme trial.

Oh Gods. Ozma was the first superboss I actually beat without a guide of any sort. Mostly because I also ran into him while playing Chocobo Hot and Cold. I don't remember how many hours I spent fighting it or what tactics I used... except I remember throwing a LOT of phoenix downs at it for some reason.

I loved Ozma!! i hope it has its level 4 holy, level 5 death, curse, doomsday... and a curaga superheal that will heal itself if we mess up its mechanics... why?... because its Ozma :3
Basically... make it the annoying RNG orb that we all remember and despise

In a 24 man raid? Fat chance.

It's been so long since I played IX that I can't remember if I took on Ozma or not. I THINK I did though. I want to play the game again SO bad, but because of the whole PlayOnline thing I won't be able to get all the secrets. If anyone knows of a site that has them AND has the markers that the guide used, could you IM the link to me please? I so want to play the game again.
