  Final Boss details, me complaining about something.
  
  So basically nothing unusual.

  The same way someone is a tool for standing directly inside the Grim Reaper and being out of range of all but his windmill because Devcat was too stupid to extend his scythe AoE to include the area at the point of origin.

  It's cheap and boring. The only reason this (back to referring to G14 Finale) even passes as an acceptable video is because we have almost nothing else to go by. I'm sure in time someone with actual skill will record something.

  
  
  So the Grim Reaper is the Cirno of the Avon Wardens?

  That's going to be epic. Finally found THE shield to go with my G13 Alchemist set. No more worrying about synthing a composite.
  
  On another note: This seems obscenely easy. Once I get around to blasting my smithing to around 5/4+ all I'd need to do is have a few moderately tough alts under ttl100, of which I already have 3. My giant, elf, and human alts would all have no troubles pummeling G13 and 14 on Basic. If I fail more than I anticipate, so what? I can easily make another alt or two, powerlevel them in Rundal then blast through G13/14 again.
  
  Kinda cool though, a reward that not every character can get, and actually requires multiple generation rewards to make.
  
  Bars, too, are pathetically easy to acquire.

  This boss looks easy to archers, although if knights use wm at the right time they will liekly dodge the shockwave, so my prediction for a "pro" video will consist of 3k+ crit smash and constant wm.
  Now that i think about it they should make harder bosses.

  From what I've experienced about shockwaves, that won't work. If you attempt to do such a thing against Claimh Solas' Darkness Wave, you will indeed avoid what appears to be the brunt of the attack, but will be hit for full damage by the tail end of its animation.

  Not just hard to kill? Well, we do have invincible monsters like the guards but maybe we could have a more interactive boss battle.
  
  For example:
  
  The boss appears and your team has to destroy the electrical alchemic rods above the boss that is accessible by going up stairs on each side of the boss. Each rod is being struck by thunder in the sky to grant powers to the boss that gives him special boss attacks and increased damage, defense, and protection. Your team has to take down each rod, to lower the boss's protection and power while at the same time keeping him busy. Once the boss is vulnerable, you go all out and do a focused team attack while avoiding his attacks. After a while, he enrages and the team gets transported (but in the cutscene it appears as if the boss destroys the walls and ground) to a map where the background is a cyclone that is sucking everything in and your party is fighting what looks like a broken chessboard floating in midair.
  
  The boss now appears with the 4 alchemic symbols and is situated at the end of the map with advance heavy stander and cannot move. He summons minions to go after you. The alchemy symbols revolves around him and every 20~30 seconds the roulette will point to an alchemy symbol and it will cause said elemental field damage (for example clay summons a skill similar to a weakened meteor, while water freezes everyone, dealing light damage, etc.). Not only you have to get near the boss but you have to kill the minions.
  
  After the boss is "killed". The dimension breaks and then the party is transported to an arena back in the original map in which the humanoid form of the boss appears. Now the party leader or whoever is doing the G has to solo the boss alone while the teammates can fire things pass the arena walls, just like in provocation to defeat the 3rd boss final form. xD
  
  And the boss AI has to be unique, not something we faced normally.
  
  ...
  
  I need to stop giving out fantasy ideas on this forums. It seems each time I get into an idea it becomes much more detailed and elaborate. xD

  Nice!
  
  Except that they definitely need to make improvements to blacksmithing so that it's accessible as a skill to everyone.

  
  
  The entire purpose of smithing is that it takes lots of dedication and practice, thus making those who pour in the insane effort needed rise above the crowd. Also, Kenero, wicked boss idea. Doooo ittttt.
