18+ Hours To Defeat Final Fantasy XI Boss

If you’ve ever played an MMORPG habitually, you know how difficult some bosses can be. Especially if your fellow guild members are shit-for-brain newbs. When you’re guild name is “Beyond the Limitation”, there’s little doubt that any one of your members gets out of the house on weekends. You’d think a bunch of geeks who never leave their rooms would be able to take down the infamous Pandemonium Warden.

Nope. This was not the case after 18 hours of play and 20 different forms of the boss. Beyond the Limitation became Beyond the Dead because they wiped so many times. Eventually, everyone gave up or got sick, reinforcing the thought that they are utter failures. You see, they’re not failures for failing to drop Pandemonium Warden; they’re failures for trying.
