And I thought the Magtheridon fight was long!

In the world of Final Fantasy XI, there is apparently one big uber-boss that roams the land. His name is Pandemonium Warden. Being the baddest boss in all the land means that you're going to have people coming after you, naturally. Well, it's going to take a while if you do. One guild had to give up after 18+ hours of boss fight!

So tough, in fact, that when the guild BeyondTheLimitation tried to take him on the other day, they ran into some problems. Namely, that it was taking hours to defeat just a single form of a monster that had already changed form 20 times. In the end, the guild had to call it quits, because after 18 hours of combat members of the party started throwing up and passing out from exhaustion. 18 hours? We get it Square, tough bosses are tough, but 18+ hours of combat isn't fun. It doesn't sit well with the game's own warning message, either.

The warning message states:

Exploring Vana'diel is a thrilling experience. During your time here, you will be able to talk, join, and adventure with many other individuals in an experience that is unique to online games.

That being said, we have no desire to see your real life suffer as a consequence. Don't forget your family, your friends, your school, or your work.

I think it fits with the warning message. They say nothing about your health in there.
