advfox 698 Posted October 22, 2014 It would be nice if some changes were made to make it more fair and challenging, but I doubt it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheKingdomkid 1,194 Posted October 22, 2014 (edited) As far as I know the only thing they did was make it so you can escape from his whip attack Edited October 22, 2014 by TheKingdomkid Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TerraRedeemed 255 Posted October 22, 2014 I've heard (and this has actually worked for me) that the difficulty of the fight scales with the amount of abilities you have equipped. The less abilities the easier the fight. Maybe that's what happened? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hatok 6,413 Posted October 23, 2014 So they may have taken steps to making the boss actually good? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BlankShell 638 Posted October 23, 2014 YX was a fair enough boss fight. There was only one real workable strategy (spamming Thunder Surge) but it still required dexterity and timing (and a teensy bit of luck) to pull through. I wouldn't mind if it was unchanged, although it could be fun to allow different strategies. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TheKingdomkid 1,194 Posted October 28, 2014 You could always do that. not in the original if you got caught in the whip attack it's basically instant death, now in 2.5 (idk if it was in the original Final Mix) you can dodge out of the whip attack before he brings you all the way up to him Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm guessing they added it in Final Mix seeing how MF was/is a really hard boss. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
