Chrono Trigger Boss Strategies
Yakra Hp : 920
Use Crono's and Frog's Double Tech X Strike to attack him. Lucca should use either
Flame Toss to attack or heal with Tonics. Beware of his NeedleSpin attack, which does
about 50 damage to 1 member. Try to keep your hp up and you should win.
Dragon Tank Hp
: Head 600
Grinder : 208
Body : 266
Simply use physical attacks since Fire will heal it. Start by attacking the head, then
the grinder and finally the body. Use Tonics or Mid Tonics to heal.
Guardian Hp : 1200 Bits : 200 each
Destroy both bits before you attack the Guardian itself, or they'll counter with some
nasty attacks. Once both bits are gone, have Crono use Cyclone while Marle and Lucca
attack. You'll have a countdown of 5 to 0 to attack before the bits are revived. If they
get revived, repeat the process until the Guardian breaks down. Use Crono's and Marle's
Aura Whirl Double Tech to heal.
R Series Hp : 150 each
There are 6 of these robots. Use Crono's Cyclone to attack, but make sure you target
three robots at once. It takes two Cyclones to destroy 3 of them. Watch out for the
remaining 3, they'll use an attack similar to Beast Toss which damages both members.
Either Marle or Lucca attack or heal with Tonics or Mid Tonics. Keep on using Cyclone on
the last 3 until defeated. If there's one left, it will use a bomb attack which does alot
of damage, keep your hp up and you'll win.
Heckran Hp : 2100
Only magic attacks will work here. Crono should use Lightning, while Marle and Lucca
use their Double Tech Antipode. Heckran will use water attacks which do reasonnable
damage. When he says " Go ahead, try to attack ! " , don't, instead use this
oppertunity to heal. If you attack him now, he'll counter with Water 2. When it says
" Brief counterattack break " , it's safe to continue attacking him.
Zombor Top Hp :
960
Bottom Hp : 800
Have Marle attack the top section with Ice while Crono and Lucca use Lightning and Fire
respectively on the bottom section. If Robo is in your team, have him use Rocket Punch on
the top section. When Zombor says "Doom,Doom,Doom, Doom...." , he will attack
the party with a laser that does 100 + damage to everyone, so be sure to heal afterwards.
Once the bottom section dies, finish the top with Ice and regular attacks. Before dying,
it will use Mp Buster, which steals a member's mp. Simply rest at an Inn to restore your
mp.
Masa & Mune Hp : 1000 each
Have Lucca use her Hypno Wave tech to put them asleep, once one or both are asleep,
attack only one of them, let the other one snooze. You only need to defeat one of them to
win. Since only one will be able to attack, don't bother healing for a measly 30
damage. Save your techs and use regular attacks.
Masamune Hp : 3600
Crono and Lucca should use their Fire Sword Double Tech, while Marle uses Cure.
If you get the message " Storing Tornado energy ", have Crono use the Slash tech
to neutralise it. If he uses his special attack, it does 100 + damage to everyone, so
watch out.
Nizbel Hp : 4200
Have Crono use Lightning to lower his defence, then use Crono's and Ayla's Double Tech
Drill Kick, after a few rounds, he'll zap you, so use Mid Tonics to heal and repeat the
process until defeated. Marle should use Ice.
Slash Hp : 3200/5200
Crono and Frog should use their Double Tech X-Strike, while Marle uses Haste on
everyone. Have Marle do the healing while the others keep using X-Strike. You fight
him twice in a row. It's much easier with Haste, so make sure Marle has learned it.
Flea Hp : 4120
You can use the same strategy with Slash here. just make sure you have enough Heal to
cure the various status ailments she causes.
Ozzie Hp : N/A
Just target one crank at a time, once you hit the fourth, Ozzie will fall.... dumb
guy :P .
Magus Hp : 6666
He may be your toughest opponent yet... Start off by having Frog attack with the
Masamune to lower his magic defense. You need to hit him with the same element he uses.
Example, if Magus uses Lightning 2, Crono should use Lightning, Lightning 2 to attack him,
if you attack with another element, it will heal him, so pay attention to what he's using.
If he uses a spell you don't have, simply attack him to make him switch magic barriers
until you get something you can use. After you've done about 3000 damage to him, he will
stop using barriers, and will prepare to cast DarkMatter, his strongest spell ( 250 + to
everyone ). You have a few rounds to attack and heal up before he casts it. If you can
manage to heal up in advance and attack until he casts DarkMatter, you'll beat him.
Nizbel II Hp : 7000
He's a breeze if you've learned Crono and Ayla's Double Tech Volt Bite, just keep using
that while Frog uses Heal. Once he zaps you, heal using Ayla and Frog's Double Tech Slurp
Kiss.
Azala & Black Tyrano
Azala Hp : 2700
Black Tyrano Hp : 10 500
Start off by attacking Azala using Crono and Frog's Double Tech Spire while Ayla uses
Cat Scratch or Rock Throw. Once Azala bites the dust, the tyrano will roar, which lower
his defense. Heal up if needed. Once you get the message " Removes defense and
stores pwr " , let him have it with Volt Bite and Leap Slash. He will use a countdown
from 5 to 0. Once it reaches 0, he will blast you with a nasty fire attack, heal
immediately after using Slurp Kiss, and wait till you get the message again. Repeat the
pattern until it dies.
Golem Hp : 7000
He will mimick your attacks, do your best, if you beat him, more exp for you. It
dosen't matter wether you win or lose here, the result will be the same.
Mud Imp, Blue Beast, Red Beast
Mud Imp Hp : 1200
Blue Beast Hp : 5000
Red Beast Hp : 5000
Attack the beasts first, use Spire and Rock Throw, heal if you need to. Once both beast
die, use Crono and Ayla's Double Tech Falcon Hit to quickly dispose of the Mud Imp.
Giga Gaia
Head Hp : 9500
Hands Hp : 2000, 1000 after being revived
He can be tough, you need to kill the hands asap. Use Falcon Hit and Water 2 to do
this. If you can manage to survive until the hands dissapear, you've practically won
the fight. Use Falcon Hit on the head and other attacks. Once the hands reappear,
give em a taste of Falcon Hit and Water 2, they should die after these two attacks. If
they don't, you're in big trouble ! Be at level 30 + and you should not lose. Don't
bother healing, cuz when you've killed the hands for the first time, Giga Gaia shouldn't
be able to attack at all if you kill the hands as soon as they reappear.
Dalton Hp : 3500
Use Volt Bite for attacking and Cure2 for healing. Just make sure you have enough hp to
survive his shadow attack once he's defeated.
Twin Golem Hp : 10 000 each
Crono should have learned Luminaire by now, so use it on them. Frog and Ayla should use
Slurp Kiss at every round. Keep on using Luminaire and don't be afraid to use an elixir to
refill Crono's mp. Use HyperEthers or FullEthers first, try to save your elixirs for
Lavos.
Golem Boss Hp : 18 000
Simply use your strongest attacks, no need to heal since his fear of heights disables
him from attacking :P. If you manage to beat him, you'll get some good exp. If he
runs away, oh well.... ^^; forget it.
Dalton Plus Hp : 3500
Just use whatever you want, he'll try to summon Golem Boss and gets sucked in th void.
Lavos Spawn Hp : 4000
Use your best techs, but make sure they target only 1 section, it's the head you gotta
take out, if you make the mistake of hitting the shell, it will use a needle attack that
does 400 + damage to everyone. Heal if needed. You'll have to fight 3 of these on Death
Peak.
Retinite
Top section Hp : 5000
Middle Section Hp : 2000
Bottom Section : 4800
You need one magic user that knows either Ice or Water Magics, the other two should be
strong fighters, Ayla and Crono are very good here, so have them in your team. The Magic
user must use the Ice/Water spell to allow the other characters attack Retinite. Ayla's
Triple Kick and Crono's Confuse work best here. use elixirs or lapis to heal. Beat it in
the following order : Middle, bottom, top. Renember to cast Ice2/Water2 every round.
Flea Plus, Great Ozzie, Super Slash
Hp : 4000 for Flea Plus, 4000 for Super Slash and 6000 for Great Ozzie
Start by attacking Flea Plus, use Techs that target only one enemy, or they will
counter with a nasty triple tech of their own. Once Flea Plus is defeated, go after Super
Slash, once he bites the dust, use any tech you wish on Great Ozzie. It's Flea and Slash
that does the hurting, Ozzie hardly does anything. Use items to heal.
Son of Sun
Hp : 2100
First off, the Red Mail, Red Vest, Ruby Armor are needed to survive this fight. Start
by attacking one flame, if you hear a tone, you've got the right flame, if not, try
another one until you get the right one, note that the flame will counterattack if it's
the wrong one. If you got the good flame, keep on attacking it until Son of Sun uses
Roulette Shuffle. Each good hit will do 210 damage to Son of Sun. If it uses Roulette
Shuffle, try to hit the right flame again, it will use a laser attack to one member and
Flare to everyone. Don't hesitate to heal if you must. Just keep up getting in lucky hits
and you'll beat it. If you have Red Mail or Red Vest, you won't need healing, but the
person who has Ruby Armor, will.
Rust Tyrano Hp : 25 000
He's not actually tough, but takes a long time to beat. Use your best Techs on
it. Like the Black Tyrano, it uses the countdown to a flame attack, Red Mail, Red
Vest are highly reccomended here. If it eats a person, heal him/her right away.
Yakra XIII Hp : 18 000
Try to get equipment that protects against Chaos status, it'll help alot. Use the best
attacks you've got, just be careful when he uses NeddleSpin13, which is very powerful.
Keep your up at all times, befores he dies, he'll use NeedleSpin13 on everyone.
Atrops XR Hp : 6000
This is a one on one between Robo and Atropos. Use Uzzi Punch, or Robo Tackle if you
don't have Uzzi Punch, use an elixir to restore his hp/mp when it gets low.
Mother Brain ( Picture not available ) Hp : 5000
Attack the Displays, then hurry up to finnish off Mother Brain before she tightens her
defense. DarkMatter, Uzzi Punch, Triple Kick and other strong techs all work well.
If you do this real quick, you won't have to heal.
Mega Mutant Hp : Top 4500, bottom 3800
If you've got armor or helmets that protect against Chaos, this will be easy. Use
you best techs, attack the bottom first, then the top. Heal if you need to.
Giga Mutant ( Picture not available ) Hp : Top 5900, bottom 5000
This one is a bit tougher, and only magics hurt it. DarkMatter, Flare, Luminaire are
the best magics to use. After each attack you do, he'll sap a little bit of your mp.
Heal immediately if it does the hp to 1 attack. Make sure you are protected from most
status ailments.
Terra Mutant Hp : Top 8000 , bottom N/A
Attack it just like the others, just don't concern yourself with the bottom, attack the
top only, once the top dies, wait a few seconds, poof, the bottom goes down to. Heal if
you need to.
Lavos Spawn Hp : 10 000
Attack him like the others you fought on Death Peak, just look out since he tends to
use a few magics. Heal if needed. Make sure you don't attack the shell or this will be a
short and not very sweet battle.
Queen Zeal Hp : 12 000
I reccomend having Crono, Marle and Ayla here, have them use the Final Kick Triple
Tech, it's very effective. If she uses Halliation, use lapis to heal, save your MegaElixir
for later. Keep using Final Kick until she kicks the bucket.
Mammon Machine Hp : 18 000
Use that Mega Elixir you've won from Queen Zeal, then use Final Kick. The attacks
aren't very powerful, but heal if you do get weak.
Queen Zeal Hp : 20 000
This is the last boss you'll face before Lavos, she is very tough. Use Final Kick on
the Head only and use a Mega Elixir after it uses Halliation.
For Lavos, look at The Final Boss section.
