faust

so i've had this game since like 2002, and i finally just faced faust today. I heard he was extremely hard, so i over-prepared. all my characters had legend casques. i only took like 300 damage from the magic attacks and like 70 from the regular attack, the entire time i only attacked with kongol and guarded with everybody else and it was over in no time...isn't faust supposed to be hard?
