Welcome back! This time we're looking at the Original Creations of the Monster Arena -- superbosses in their own right, they're much more powerful versions of bosses you've already fought. Let's dive right in.
Also, I'm eating a banana. Fun fact for you there.
Original Creations Part 1[]
Earth Eater[]
| Earth Eater |
 HP: 1,300,000 (99,999)
Difficulty: Hard This big bugger is just like Chocobo Eater, only on steroids and with no cliff over which to push him. He has high, unbreakable defences and Auto-Reflect, so no cheap tricks here.

Greater Sphere[]
| Greater Sphere |
 HP: 1,500,000 (99,999)
Difficulty: Hard It's Spherimorph's big brother (?). Like before, it has an elemental weakness but we've long since forgotten about elements. It counters regular attacks with Ultima (zzz) and Overdrives with Hydraulic Press, a troll move that Just Anima tank the thing. You can set up the relevant buffs quickly and with high enough Magic Defence, alongside Protect and Shell you can shake off both Ultima and Hydraulic Press together, which is likely to follow your attacks and will follow Oblivion. It's much easier to take this thing on mano a mano than it is as a party. If you plan on grinding Luck, you'll need the Luck Spheres this thing drops. Prepare to fight him a lot. It's a shame its death animation takes up more time than it should, too. |

Catastrophe[]
| Catastrophe |
 HP: 2,200,000 (99,999)
Difficulty: Medium Oh look, it's Sinspawn Genaux/ais. It comes out of its shell only after losing 1/5 of its HP. Until then it either passes turn or uses Toxic Cloud, which wrecks your party with Confuse, Poison and Curse. Confuse shouldn't be an issue, Poison can be cleared up with Al Bhed Potions and Curse, eh, depends on how badly you want to use Overdrives. Essentially, you only need to spam Quick Hit while avoiding getting taken apart by his attacks. When it emerges, it starts using Toxic Spray which I believe doesn't actually cause Poison, but rather the more devastating Full Break. Dispel that shit immediately. Hundred Thorns is its nastiest move, requiring very high Defence and Protect to not get the party wiped out. Demi is about as relevant as it's always been. |
