if you attack Masa.

EXP: 500
Tech: 10
G: 1500
Weak vs.: none
Strong vs.: none

said for this battle.

Location: Reptite Lair, 65,000,000 BC
HP: 4200
EXP: 500
Tech: 10
G: 0
Weak vs.: Lightning
Strong vs.: None
Charm: Third Eye
At first, cast Lightning on him. Now use your most powerful dual techs
(Drill Kick and Volt Bite work wonders). Two or three rounds after your
lightning, he'll release all lightning, hurting you. Have Crono and Marle
use Aura Whirl, and continue on. Repeat this process, and you'll have
victory in no time.
Name: FLEA
Location: Magus' Castle, 600 AD
HP: 4120
EXP: 500
Tech: 10
G: 1000
Weak vs.: Attack
Strong vs.: Magic
Charm: N/A
Have Crono and Frog use X-Strike while Marle heals. When she uses Waltz of
Wind, it puts a character in chaos. If it is Marle in chaos, continue
attacking. If it is Frog, use Spincut (if you have it, otherwise regular
attacks). If it is Crono, use Slurp Cut. Don't waste items. Soon he/she/it
(whatever it is, it certainly has gender problems) will be toast.
Name: SLASH
Location: Magus' Castle, 600 AD
HP: 5200
EXP: 500
Tech: 10
G: 1500
Weak vs.: None
Strong Vs.: Magic
Charm: N/A
At first, just use regular attacks. Quite simple. Then he'll grab his
Slasher sword. Down to business. Use Spire, Sword Stream and Ice Sword, and
make sure Marle heals when necessary.
Name: OZZIE
HP: ????
EXP: none
Tech: 0
G: 0
Weak vs.: ????
Strong vs.: ????
Charm: N/A
Some don't even consider this a boss battle. Anyways, don't aim for Ozzie.
Instead, press left, and aim for a switch. When you hit it, the battle will
restart, but you'll have to hit a different one. When you hit all of them, he falls.
Name: MAGUS
Location: Magus' Castle, 600 AD
HP: 6666
EXP: 1500
Tech: 15
G: 3000
Weak vs.: The Masamune
Strong vs.: Varies
Charm: N/A
He has a shifting magic barrier that changes his weakness. Have everyone charge up,
and have Frog attack. Wait until his barrier changes to Water. Now it is time to
put a serious hurt on him. Use Arc Impulse. This will take up to 3000 HP
away from him. A couple more spells, and you'll see a message saying, "Magus
risks casting a spell". He will now cast either Magic Wall or Dark Matter.
If he casts Dark Matter, heal! Use another Arc Impulse, and maybe some
other attacks, and he'll be finished in no time.
Name: NIZBEL II
Location: Tyrano Lair, 65,000,000 BC
HP: 4200
EXP: 880
Tech: 15
G: 0
Weak vs.: Lightning
Strong vs.: None

Your previous strategy won't work here. Have Crono and Ayla use Volt Bite
while Frog heals. He'll still use the electricity discharge, so be careful!
Name: AZALA, BLACK TYRANO
Location: Tyrano Lair, 65,000,000 BC
Azala HP: 2700
Black T. HP: 10,500
EXP: 1800
Tech: 25
G: 0
Weak vs.: None
Strong vs.: none
Azala Charm: Magic Tab
Black T. HP: Power Tab
Take out Azala first by using magic spells to take out his defense, and then
dual techs to hurt him more. You cannot hurt the Black Tyrano until he is
gone. After you beat Azala, he uses HP Break that makes your characters lose
some HP. Use regular attacks for now. When it says that its defense has
lowered to power up its attack, use all your strongest techs. When it
reaches zero in its countdown, it does a strong fire attack on all of your
characters. Heal, and then repeat. Hopefully you'll be able to take it out
before it uses the attack again.
Name: GOLEM

HP: 7000
EXP: 1000

Mud weak vs.: none
Blue strong vs.: absorbs water

Blue charm: Mermaid Cap
Red Charm: Elixir
Mud charm: Speed Tab
This is actually a hard boss. At the beginning, have Ayla use Charm on all
three, while Crono does Lightning2. Once you've stolen from all three, have
Crono and Frog do Spire on the Red Beast. Once he is gone, Frog should heal,
while Crono and Ayla do Volt bite on the blue beast. Now use whatever you
want on the Mud Imp.
Name: GIGA GAIA
Location: Mt. Woe, 12,000 BC
HP: 9500
EXP: 3000
Tech: 30
G: 3000
Weak vs.: None
Strong vs.: None
Charm: Speed Tab
Before you even get a chance to attack, he'll blast you with two VERY
POWERFUL attacks. Have Frog heal, and Crono and Ayla use Volt bite on the
left arm. Now use Frog's Leap Slash. Soon the left arm (VERY SOON) will be
gone. Now use Spire and Volt Bite on the head. Soon the left arm will be
reconstructed. Use Volt Bite on it to destroy it, then attack the head.
Soon enough, Giga Gaia will have had enough.
Name: DALTON

HP: 3800
EXP: 1000
Tech: 30
G: 2500
Weak vs.: None

out before he does any serious damage. At the end, he will do a little bit
more damage, and then die off.

HP: 7000
EXP: 2000
Tech: 70
G: 5000
Weak vs.: All
Strong vs.: None
Charm: magic tab
Crono should attack them with Luminaire (yes, you should have it by now. If
not, use Lightning2), and then have Lucca cast Hypno Wave. Have Frog heal,
and continue this strategy. Soon, they'll both be gone.
Name: GOLEM BOSS
Location: Blackbird, 12,000 BC
HP: 15,000
EXP: 2500
Tech: 40
G: 2000
Weak vs.: None

EXP: 2500
Tech: 40
G: 2000
Weak vs.: None
Strong vs.: None
Charm: Power Meal
Have Frog heal. He'll use Iron Orb that drops your HP by half. Use Frog

HP: 6666
EXP: 3000
Tech: 50
G: 4000
Weak vs.: None
Strong vs.: None
Charm: MegaElixir
THIS BATTLE IS OPTIONAL. He has no barrier now. If Frog is in your party,
this will be a one on one battle. Since you should have Frog in your party,
I will describe the one on one battle. Just use Leap Slash to knock his HP
down by 800 every time, and use Cure2 if necessary. But, if you DON'T have
Frog in your party... Have Marle and Lucca use Antipode3 while Ayla uses
Charm, Triple Kick, and heals.
Name: LAVOS SPAWN
Location: Death Peak, 2300 AD
HP: 4000
EXP: 747
Tech: 120

HP: 2500
EXP: 2000
Tech: 20
G: 2000
Weak vs.: None
Strong vs.: None
Charm: None
Believe it or not, this battle is easier than before. Have Frog and Ayla use
regular attacks, and Magus use Dark Bomb. He/she/it will be gone before you
can say, "Gender challenged".
Name: SUPER SLASH

HP: 2500
EXP: 2000
Tech: 20
G: 2000

Flea Charm: Flea Vest
Charm everyone, and start attacking Super Slash. Make sure to keep your HP
fairly high. Soon he'll be destroyed, really hurting their delta attack.
Now take out Flea. Now lay the hurt down on Ozzie. He's run so much before
that he is about to be smacked hard. Make him say, "Ouchies"
Name: GREAT OZZIE
Location: Ozzie's Fort, 600 AD
HP: ????
EXP: 0
Tech: 0
G: 0
Weak vs.: None
Strong vs.: None
Charm: OzziePants
You can once again charm OzziePants from him. Again, aim for the switch
behind him. You hit the wrong switch, and you fall. Go back to Ozzie's
room. Before you can do battle again, a cat comes up, and presses a switch
that drops Ozzie to his doom.
Name: SUN OF SON
Location: Sun Palace, 2300 AD
HP: 2100
EXP: 3800
Tech: 40
G: 2000
Center weak vs.: IT Flame
Flame orbs weak vs.: none
Center Strong vs.: None
Flame orbs strong vs.: All
Center charm: Black Mail
Orb charm: Elixir
One of the trickier bosses in the game deceives you in to thinking that the
middle creature is the boss. The real target is one of the flaming orbs
surrounding it. Only this orb can be damaged sufficiently, and the whole is
immune to spells. To determine which orb is the one to hit, have each
character attack an orb physically. Wait until that attack is executed. If
no damage is done, the boss counterattacks, and you should try again. Once
you've hit the right orb, keep hitting it. Each time they are shuffled, you
have to determine the correct one again. Soon he'll be gone.
Name: ATROPOS XR
Location: Geno Dome, 2300 AD
HP: 6000
EXP: 0
Tech: 0
G: 0
Weak vs.: None
Strong vs.: None

when needed. Atropos does the same thing. She'll use Final Bomb at the end.
Name: MOTHER BRAIN
Brain HP: 5000
Display HP: 1
EXP: 3000
Tech: 40
G: 3000
Weak vs.: None
Strong vs.: None
Brain charm: Blue Mail
Display charm: Elixir
First destroy all of the Displays in the room except one. The displays heal
the Mother Brain by 1000 HP each, making it impossible to do damage. Destroy
the Display on the left and the one on the right. If you take all three out,
she'll launch a massive counterattack, and her attack and defense will rise
each round. Now attack the Mother Brain with single-target techs. Don't use
Dual or Triple Techs, since you can do more damage in one round if everyone
performs their strongest single tech. Charm a Blue Mail from her, then
you'll beat her.
Name: RUST TYRANO
Location:
HP: 25000
EXP: 3800
Tech: 40
G: 2000
Weak vs.: none
Strong vs.: None
Charm: Red Mail
This battle is like the one against the black Tyrano, only he is now tougher,
and, upon reaching 0 in the countdown, he'll launch a double fire attack.
Hopefully you have Ruby Armors for everyone. If you do, the only attack you
should worry about is when he chews up a character. The cool thing is that
you don't have to wait for it to drop its defense, so start using your best
Dual techs. Make sure to heal, and use charm.
Name: YAKRA XIII
Location: Guardia Castle, 1000 AD
HP: 18000
EXP: 3500
Tech: 40
G: 2000
Weak vs.: None
Strong vs.: None
Charm: White Mail
Everyone should be equipped with an item that prevents Chaos. If you're well
prepared, all you have to do is hit Yakra XIII with your strongest techs.
Don't forget to use Charm and heal occasionally.

G: 2000
Core Weak vs.: None
Upper/Lower weak vs.: Water
Core strong vs.: Absorbs all magic but water
Upper/Lower strong vs.: None
Core Charm: Speed Tab
He looks like Zombor. Make sure to heal throughout this battle. Cast an ice
spell to lower the DEF, and then target the top with powerful PHYSICAL techs
like Confuse, Leap Slash, X-Strike, etc. DEF will rise again with each
attack; so cast Ice and/or Water at the beginning of each round. Continue
this pattern until it is destroyed, and then take out the bottom half.
Name: MEGA MUTANT
Location: Black Omen
Upper HP: 4600
Lower HP: 3850
EXP: 900

EXP: 1500
Tech: 80
G: 2000
Weak vs.: None
Strong vs.: None
Upper Charm: Wall Ring
Lower Charm: Hit Ring
Refrain from using regular attacks, because they only do minimal damage. The
whole mutant seems invincible. Use Magus' Dark Matter, Frog's Water2, and
Ayla's Charm. Also use Drop Kick. Use Elixirs. If you have to choose, take
out the upper half first.
Name: TERRA MUTANT
Location: Black Omen
Upper HP: 7800
Lower HP: 20,000
EXP: 2000
Tech: 100
G: 3800
Weak vs.: None
Upper Strong vs.: None
Lower Strong vs.: Attack, absorbs magic

Lower Charm: Power Seal
Use Dark Matter, and Drop Kick on the top half. The bottom half just heals.

the bottom half will be too.
Name: LAVOS SPAWN
Location: Black Omen
HP: 10,000
EXP: 2450
Tech: 120
G: 2500
Weak vs.: None
Strong vs.: None
Head Charm: Haste Helmet
Shell Charm: Safe Helm
Have Ayla use Triple Kick on the head, Frog use Leap Slash on the head, and
Magus attack. Just like Death Peak!
Name: QUEEN ZEAL
Location: Black Omen
HP: 12,000
EXP: 0
Tech: 0
G: 0
Weak vs.: None
Strong vs.: None
Charm: MegaElixir
At the beginning, Zeal will use Hallation. This will drop everyone's HP to
1. Have Frog use Frog Squash, and Ayla use Tail Spin. This should hurt her
really bad. Magus should do Dark Matter. This, and maybe one more attack,
will take her out quickly.
Name: MAMMON MACHINE
Location: Black Omen
HP: 18,000
EXP: 0
Tech: 0
G: 0
Weak vs.: None
Strong vs.: None
Charm: MegaElixir
Physical attacks will raise his DEF and magic attacks increase ATK. It
retaliates with a massive counterattack after several spells are cast on it.
Spend the first few rounds healing. USE ONLY MAGIC TECHS, NOT PHYSICAL ONES.
Of course, you can do whatever you like when it says Mammon M. Stands Still.
Charm it now.
Name: ZEAL
Location: Black Omen
Face HP: 20,000
Right Arm HP: 28000
Left Arm HP: 28000
EXP: 0
Tech: 0
G: 0
Weak vs.: None
Strong vs.: None
Right Hand Charm: Prism Helm
Left Hand Charm: Prism Dress
Head Charm: MegaElixir
Do not try the tailspin/frog squash strategy. Attacking either hand
causes her to reduce that character's HP to 1 or MP to 0. Use a MegaElixir
after each major reduction. Focus all attacks on the head to avoid the
retribution of the hands. Even if you don't attack the hands, she will
perform a Delta Attack that damages by percentage, and it could end the game
if you aren't careful. Use MegaElixirs, not healing spells. Meanwhile use
your strongest dual techs on the head.
Name: LAVOS SHELL
Location: 1999
Now you'll face certain bosses again. Use their respective strategies to
beat them. The bosses are:
Dragon Tank
Guardian, Bits
Heckran
Zombor
Masamune
Nizbel
Magus
Black Tyrano, Azala
Giga Gaia
Soon, he'll attack in his own form. He has about 10,000 HP. Use your most
powerful techs, and heal when needed. He'll be gone in no time. Now you
enter the shell. Use the Time Gate to return to the end of time.
Name: OUTER CORE
Location: 1999
At the beginning, use Falcon Hit and Dark Matter until both of the hands are
gone. Then use your strongest techs on the body.
Name: INNER CORE
Location: 1999
At the start, focus your attacks on either the central or left bit until one
is destroyed. Unless the left bit's defense disabling becomes a problem, it
is better to take out the central bit first. A message indicates when the
right bit's defense is down. Use your strongest, single target techs on the
right bit. When it restores the central bit, use techs like Falcon Hit,
Luminaire, and Dark Matter. Soon the defense is restored. Use the same
strategy as before. He also changes time periods, and varies his attacks
accordingly. When you beat the Right Bit, the battle is won. Sit back and
enjoy the ending.
