Most difficult final Zelda boss?

[VikzeLink]

Yea, I sorta agree with some of you here.
Onox from OoS and Vaati from MC are quite difficult.
I remember having some trouble with Demise too, but it's been years since I played SS

if you're not doing the side crouch thing, then dark link easily
vaati was pretty tough too with all those separate forms, as well as onox

Definitely Head Thwomp. He was the boss of the Wing Dungeon in OoA, and he is STUPIDLY DIFICULT. The entire battle is centered around timing, making it totally random whether you get in the shot. He made me stop playing for like 7 months.

Oh oops, I didn't notice the "final" part. In that case, probably Calamity Ganon in BotW, simply because I suck at blocking and parrying.

Just shoot it with a bow

Vaati gave me a pretty hard time.

just crouch in the corner

Thing is, I knew this going in, and promised myself I wouldn't cheat because I was using save states. I'm honestly glad I didn't.

save states is more cheaty than crouching is :V (not that I consider save states cheating)

eh I think its a fair trade off, I beat it on the gamecube which doesn't have save states and you can bet your cheeky arse I used the crouching method

Hardest boss for me would be Ganon from Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past. I've also never beat him and I gave up.

As I always say: If the game let's you do it, it's not cheating

ingame cheat codes are things :V Like tony hawk or shovel knight

 

[Pennycan1800]

Demise from Skyward Sword up there so is Onox from OoS and Dark Link in Zelda II (Thunderbird from Zelda II also but I dont know if it would count.) as some of the hardest final Zelda bosses. Also Malladus in ST and Vatti in The Minish Cap.

I've seen demise listed a couple times now. What makes him so hard to you guys?

 

[thePlinko]

It honestly depends on how many times you’ve played the game.

my first time playing I struggled quite a bit with WW Ganondorf, Demise, LttP Ganon, Dark Link, MC Vatti, and Bellumbeck.

Nowadays I can pretty reliably kill nearly each of those bosses. The only one I struggle with is Dark Link, and even then that’s just when I’m using the intended strat.

The first thing is just that he does a lot of damage, iirc. Besides that, his attack patterns can be a bit tricky if you're not used to them: the counterattack he does after hitting his sword a few times, the two swings in a row, etc, can result in you getting hit a lot if you're not careful. In the second phase especially, I didn't really get how to call the lightning quickly and kept getting hit before I could.

The fight can be incredibly easy if you actually know what you're doing, of course. But it gave me some trouble the first couple of times until I got it down.
