[quote="1oldtymer" post=2013]I doubt he can be defeated. I hit him for 391k and then 352K, for a total of about 743,000, and was primed to get another whack at him when Fleon's "Undead Gem" activated and Fleon died. Of course everybody else was dead before they had a chance. I was lucky to get Fleon 2 turns, because the monster's "mini" magic missed so Fleon could use his skill "Gold Rush." Maybe if you have a 10 million dollars and can hit for 1 million with Gold Rush, but I suspect even that will fail.[/quote]

There must be a way. Every Kemco game that has a crazy uber boss, has a way to beat the boss. It's most likely some "secret" ring or gem you have to have equipped, or the right combination of Added Effects on weapons, the right status buffs or resistance to abnormal status - or you have to have crazy high levels.

I don't know, but someone who's actually fought against this guy might be able to get an answer by asking on Kemco's Facebook page? Sometimes people answer, sometimes not (but that assumes someone else who reads their Facebook page has already beat this guy, and actually feels like answering.... so it could be a long shot but might be worth asking.)

EDIT: P.S. Out of curiosity, what is your weapon's ATK level?

Thanks for the tip. I don't think attack level matters for "Gold Rush." My weapon level was a "Last Stand+81)=245+81. ATK was 1841

I don't know if this is your missing quest, but mine says "Sub Quest 14" "eliminate Assassin" from the Feral King Subordinate in the Feral Realm Border Village. However, I'm not certain the numbering is "absolute," so if I'm missing an earlier one, the numbering would be off.

Yes that would be the one. Now, where the heck is the Feral Realm Border Village? I don't even have that location on my World Map :woohoo:

P.S. Each Sub Quest is assigned a specific number. If you don't have a certain number (like 7, 11, whatever) it just means you haven't found that quest yet.

Somewhere in here Azyleo mentioned a weapon he found in the Ethereal dungeon, either Hard or Hell (I don't remember which), but the ATK on the weapon was +600. So, it's possible you need something with that kind of power?

But you're right, for using Gold Rush, ATK shouldn't make any difference.

That be it! Thanks so much. :cheer:

As far as beating the Uber monster...well, I'll believe you that it is possible. However, maybe we can rule a few things out, based on what some have posted here and my own experience.
1. Level isn't the answer--if 154 isn't enough, just forget it.
2. Buffs are not practical--you are lucky if you get a turn (I had Lilith manage once to get a turn) if you don't have the undead gem, and there is only one of those (apparently) in the game. And none in the shop. By the way, the monster got something like 23 consecutive turns while Fleon was holding out because of the undead gem.
3. It better not be a missable item--that would be insane. So, that tells me that it isn't an unappraised weapon found in the hell dungeon, etc.

But that doesn't leave much.
BTW again: how do I quote the post in my reply. I clicked on "quote" and couldn't figure out what to do next.

Go to the warp in the Poncham Shrine. ( The building, not the cave.)

Okay that really does sound insane. I'm not going to speculate anymore, I'll leave it up to someone else to try and find a way to beat him (I'm reasonably certain it can be done, but since I'm not there I'm going to stop giving advice while I still sound like I know what I'm talking about.) :whistle:

[quote]BTW again: how do I quote the post in my reply. I clicked on "quote" and couldn't figure out what to do next.[/quote]

When you click the quote button, it automatically generates the code needed to post it as a "quote" in your reply. Everything in between the

Code: Select all

[quote] and [/quote]

.

You can even edit out information if you want to just quote one line, for example to highlight that you're responding to a specific question (as I've done with your BTW question here.)

It's a little confusing at first but once you get the hang of it, it's a really convenient tool. Let me know if that helps!

LOLS! I don't know how I forgot about that place.... Anyway thank you. I now have 15 Sub Quests (but not the one in Ethereal Est, that leads to the uber boss - is that an official Sub Quest or does it just allow you to fight the guy?)
