I was kind of lukewarm regarding him as someone so freakishly strong he beat Clive twice without difficulty. Even though this is a proper one on one where Clive gets the advantage with newly imbedded powers of Shiva, I was still not sold on him. These lines though? It was the first time I gave a proper excited “oh shit.” Possibly my favorite voiced lines of the game.

This whole fight against Odin is the perfect love letter to Devil May Cry fans. You don't fight him as your Eikon, the final arena in the rain is just like the one at the top of Temen-ni-gru, his attacks are just like Vergil's, and best of all he becomes MOTIVATED.

I like how David Menkin (Barnabas) has a North American accent IRL and you can hear that with Malos in Xenoblade 2 where the cast is otherwise full of British voice actors, but he is actually originally from Norway and that his accent was just very developed, so it sounds like he tapped into the voice of his earlier days speaking English for the role of the major Norse deity’s Dominant. Especially since Barnabas is mentioned to not even be of Ash, so giving him an approximate yet foreign quality that adds to him.

Barnabas got to be one of the most unexpected plot twist considering what we theorised on him. We thought of him as some great composed sephirothesque warlord with some goal of Darwinist freedom where eikons could rule the world. Turns out it’s the exact opposite, he is but a clinically insane slave without will who just became complacent with his role and strength, accepting his role and fate out of loneliness and boredom with his only serotonin being the challenge that was promised to him. He is the strongest dominant but the « weakest » at the same time. We thought Dion would be the religious meta slave but turns out it’s his nemesis Kinda depressing ( not disappointing tho ) villain to be honest. Would like to learn more on him though.

Barnabas really fights like no other Dominant, the way he goes in and out of various previously unseen stages of Priming is incredibly impressive, and it's like he can semi-Prime to a state where he can concentrate Odin's full power without having to sacrifice speed or go into the huge form and make a big target of himself, he shows amazing control of his Eikon, like he IS Odin. It may not be the big Eikon Vs. Eikon spectacle like some of the other bosses, but still an amazing fight that really showcased a Dominant using their abilities at full potential, and the way he becomes more psychotic as the fight goes on having finally found a worthy opponent, fucking love it.

I kept hearing that the Barnabas fight was so disappointing. Now that I've actually done it, I feel like I couldn't disagree more. I think it was one of the most intense and aesthetically cool boss fights in the game. Sure, we didn't get a full Odin and Ifrit fight, but honestly, I didn't mind. Despite all the spectacle, I kind of thought Titan and Bahamut were a bit TOO over the top and took too long to complete. The Barnabas fight lasted just long enough, and his descent into deeper madness over the course of the fight was truly unsettling.

The berserker ring accessory gives you limit break attacks for a few seconds after you do a precision dodge. I think you find it around 30% through the game.

The Berserker Ring. Makes the game a lot, lot easier. It triggers a semi LB counter if you make a precision dodge in the direction of an attack instead of away from it.

how can u do shiva final move if u don't have it equipped? and how can u enlarge the allowed quantity of potions, i still have a maximum of 4 potions, 3 and 2

If you Master an ability (you can do it by upgrading it twice), you can assign it to another Eikon. As for the potions, there are a couple of sidequest that allow you increase the capacity of your item pouch.

Imagine if all boss fights were as epic as these

Barnabas went so insane his VA switched to the voice he used for Malos in Xenoblade 2 XD

can i just say that after 16:00, barnabas sounds freakishly exactly like bill cypher from gravity falls. especially during his psychotic laughing. I love this fight so much.

For me Bahamut and Odin fights are two different thing, we feast our eyes on greatest battle eikon bahamut, and get serious play time with sword battle odin fight. it is cool as it is.

I like how Barnabas is being portrayed as cold and composed person throughout the game, but in this fight, especially from 15:37 onward, he shows us how insane he can be.

This was a hard fight, worthy of being a boss fight. Had to every single item at my disposal, including that final phoenix down thingy (that you only get one of). Maybe I just suck in my old age lol, but holy crap the only other time it came down to the wire like that was the first fight against Garuda.

Exactly but how is this guy able to dodge out of everything Barnabas is throwing at him precision dodge X 3, 4 he has qte meter and he hits a button and evades what gives???? Im old school but is he using multiple accessories because I've gotten killed multiple time's on this part?????

From 15:42 I was beyond hype grinning ear to ear, this boss challenegd ne the most in the best possible way and while i was underwhlemed at first, now I really appreciate this fight. I can count on one hand how many games made me actually scream "LETS F***ING GO I WAS WAITING FOR THIS..."

Hell yeah man. I loved this fight

Fight between a pair of people with a red/blue color scheme in the rain at night on top of a tower, this really is just Eikon May Cry 3: Clive's Awakening

the only thing i wish is that they had done is let the last segment of the fight be without his helmet. like around 15:30 when he does the sick descent into reveling, i wanted to see the emotions on his face, man!

How does he have r1 dodge indicators? Is that an item that shows them during a chain?

Yes it slows time before possible dodge incoming

Odin is my favorite icon

Now this, it may not be as spectacle as the other boss fights but this right here is peak voice acting.

As soon as i got to 9.08 I was very confused what the hell the original Final Fantasy I overworld theme was doing here playing while Barnabas is giving a speech.

Easily the best fight in the game, mechanically anyway. Titan is a great fight, but it’s not as fun or replayable, it’s just a great first time experience.

100%’d some months back. Press people are paid to write bullishit. Apparently this new gen of writers really misses the seventh generation. If I took the same damned thing, gave it a new title, and slapped it onto the 360, it would be declared a GOTY candidate.

Show me your worth, Mythos!! _THAT I MIGHT REVEL IN IT!!!!!_

Should be only some 2 years or so, maybe less. Japanese devs are starting to realize how much money they're leaving on the table with exclusives, and changing to timed exclusives

Remember the name of the quest you fight Barnabas for the final time in? The Last King. Fitting as the kingdom of waloed is the last in ash to fall. With only the grand duchy of Rosaria and Dhalmekian Republic are the only nations in all of Valesthia that survived. The former being restored after the fall of the holy empire of Sanbreque and crystalline dominion.
