Alright Legate Lanuis in fallout nv is one of the hardest bosses I've faced in a long time.

You need 100 speech to talk your way out of the battle, I had 90 :/. Also my character is focused on sneaking so getting in a fight head on is difficult. I had sneaking at 85 along with 3 stealth boys.

100 speech is always what I go for first, of the 3 times I've beaten him I've never actually fought him.

I have two characters and two things that are a must for me are repair and speech. Repair so i can get jury rigging at level 14 which is really useful. speech is useful because some missions can be skipped just but talking your way out. Lanuis deals 3 hits on me. I've beaten the game twice, Once doing ceaser's storyline and the one i just beat was Mr.House always wins. Im going to do a hardcore run next. But not sure which storyline to do.

I've never done the Caesar storyline, I might do that one next. I've done NCR twice and then Wildcard. I'd say do Wildcard because it provides more freedom with what you do and who you ally with.

All i can say is that Caesar storline does not provide alot of xp because he only has 1 quest. Hardcore seems hard you have to focus on food, sleep, and water which seems really hard on top of that you cant fast travel. Ally's die right away instead of just getting stunned. I think next i will do wildcard im going to mix it up with my next character. Normally strength and luck are low for me usually 1-4 but this time im going to make them my highest and see how effective they will be.

I wouldn't advise putting much in luck. Its not really useful. That being said, Hardcore mode is not all that difficult past the very beginning. Its a little tedious, and you'll be best spec'd in guns or energy weapons, going the longest approachable distance in combat. (YCS and Anti-Material. WOOT WOOT).
Wildcard is easily your best option in most playthroughs and this is even more so the case with wildcard. If you need any help, ask me. If you're just doing it for the achievement, I'd also recommend a low difficulty setting.

So, I'm at the final few bosses in Kingdom Hearts Dream Drop Distance. The game seriously took a 90 degree difficulty curve. Its almost enough to make me regret picking normal.

Had to start a new game again on freaking Beginner because the moment you reach that last world things just become very hard. Pretty sure I've raged on all the bosses to point I gave up and started again on Beginner. Also I didn't feel like grinding both Sora and Riku because I don't have the patience when it comes to that game.

I don't blame ya. I beat it last night after a few hours, and my Riku was level 42 compared to my level 32 Sora. I found its actually really easy to grind in the fantasia world, by just walking in and out of Merlin's tower garden. You get about 1300 exp each time and there's no ryu dragons.
