for gen 3-5 I got really spergy about having the best team for all the gyms/elite four without wasting exp on pokemon I would level for a single gym and then stop using. I would go through all the pokemon used by the leaders/e4 and make a spreadsheet of their weaknesses and what they have super-effective moves against. then I would go through and build my team of 6 so that for every leader/e4 pokemon I could send out something that had a super-effective move while not being weak to anything the opponent had. I would constantly check it against what pokemon were available to me by that point in the game so I could do it all w/o trading it was a weird time in my life

Is listing every boss in 7th Saga enough or should I add the Apprentice's?

The Crying Table boss on floor 25 in Persona 3 is pretty rough if you don't have the right persona fused for it... its the case for a lot of floor bosses but that's the first one where you actually had to prepare.

Norg from FF8 was a Gateway boss when I played it. Mainly cause I was a moron and didn't pay attention to the pods.

your av's boss owns a lot and when I saw it for the first time I was like "hey that's someone on SA's av" i don't know if he's a gateway boss but it's a really good boss

Nuclear Throne, which is an amazing game It and Crypt of the Necrodancer are by far the best two early access things on Steam and outdo a lot of finished games

every Wind of Destruction in revengeance checks if you're good at a certain thing unless you're fighting sundowner and ignore his gimmick entirely blade wolf is parrying, mistral is crowd control/dodging (sort of?), monsoon checks both, sundowner checks if you can handle slashing in specific directions, sam checks whether you can handle overwhelming offense w/ his fast comboing and his dashing throw thing, and also whether you can fight without your Y/Triangle moves, and armstrong kind of throws it all together that might not be a gateway thing as much as it is the rare "good boss design" strat most game developers have thrown away

I've never beaten Chrono Cross because Miguel is pretty dang hard! Then again he's on like, disc 2 so maybe that doesn't count.

It is kinda poo poo for games to prevent grinding and make bosses exist to exploit your crippled team. The level you got for beating the boss might be one more HP for a character until the next boss. Woo.

I have to buy it from the store? lol edit; I should mention I'm on the PC so IDK what the heck

You don't have to buy Parry, just press the joystick towards an enemy and hit slash and you block, do it at the right time for a parry

it does suck if you're running a summoning necro and you get to duriel, esp without respecs, since all of your sources of damage disappear entirely and getting corpses between deaths becomes a pain in the rear end

I always ran summon necro (cuz it owns all the bones) and this boss was the hardest in the game.
