V. 0.3
This time I change some mistake I made, and also add a few things in. Thanks
Cnsoplis for point out my mistake.
V. 0.2
This time I will update the complete information of the entire boss in the
game. And next time I will try to see what is the boss is carrying and their
HP.
This whole guide will follow this format:
Boss: Name of the boss
Party: Party member recommend and formation.
Strategy: Ways to fight the boss.
Boss: Nue
Party: Ryu Rei Teepo (the only three you have)
Strategy: Use attack formation, put Rei in the front. Have all three-
character attack. Don't use items unless you are near dead, because after
some damage, Nue will run off.
Steal: Power Food
Boss: Nue (Second Time)
Party: Ryu Rei Teepo
Strategy: Use attack formation again. But this time, Nue is stronger Ryu
should cast protect on Rei then himself and Teepo. Use your strongest attack
and magic, be sure to beat this boss quickly, because if not Nue will use
Jolt, which does a lot damage on the whole party.
Steal: Power Food
Boss: dog (forget the name)
Party: Ryu Rei Teepo
Strategy: Just use attack, after several round it will be defeated. (Learn
Snap from it.)
Boss: Rocky
Party: Ryu Rei Teepo
Strategy: This is a tough boss, because it will change your party member into
eggs. And once you become an egg, it is very easy to be killed. So use items
to heal often. Have all three-character attack again and it will be
defeated. (Learn Jump from it.)
Steal: Life Shard (not sure)
Boss: Ghost 1~4
Party: Ryu Teepo
Strategy: Just use attacks, don't use magic. Heal when is necessary.
Boss: Ghost combined (forget the name)
Party: Rei Ryu Teepo
Strategy: Use attack formation, have Rei in the front. Have Ryu use protect
on each member, the use snap to lower its defense. While other two attacks,
heal often, after a period of tough fight, the Ghost will go down, lucky it
don't have much HP.
Boss: Mutant
Party: Ryu Nina Momo
Strategy: This is a tough boss. Because it will regenerate 250 HP every round
and it can do huge damage. Uses attack formation and put Ryu in the front.
First have Ryu cast protect on each then become a flame-based dragon. Then
use flame claw. Momo should just attack. And have Nina be the healer.
Claw V.S. Momo
Have Momo use protect and then fight. Heal with items. If she goes down, have
Ryu do the same trick.
Cawer V.S. Momo/Ryu
You will still have the protect from the first battle so just attack.
The party leader (forget name) V.S. Momo/Ryu
Attack again but be sure to heal when your HP is lower than half of your Max
HP.
Boss: Emitai and the Golems
Party: Ryu Nina Momo
Strategy: Correction here, when you in the battle, have Ryu case Protect 3
times on each member. Momo should attack Emitai and Nina heal. Once Emitai
is gone, the two Golems will starts to fight each other, and the battle is
much easier.(Thanks to Cnsoplis for telling me this.)
Garr V.S. Ryu
Having Ryu cast protect first then change to flame-defender dragon and
attack. After a few round Garr will use lucky strike to take you down.
Boss: Stallion
Party: Garr Ryu Momo
Strategy: Using attack formation and having Garr in the head. Ryu became a
flame-defender dragon and let Mono cast protect. (Don't let Ryu cast shield
because you want to save his AP because this is going to be a long battle.)
And having Garr attack. After Stallion do his classic Ultra attack, (If you
know who Ultra man is.) be sure to heal. After a while this boss will go
down.
Boss: Zig
Party: Who ever
Strategy: Defend until Zig waves his hand, then you can heal Beyd. And let
Beyd attack Zig. It is a dual after all.
Boss: Gazer

just attack. Be sure to heal when Gazer does his eye beam.

on each member. Then case speed on each member (if Momo is level 19 she will
have speed) Ryu should become a Thunder-Defender-Eldritch dragon. And use
Tsunami. Let Nina be the healer.
Boss: Old man and the two Monsters.
Party: Peco Ryu Nina
Strategy: Use attack formation put Peco in the head and let him equips fire
ring. Ryu cast shield then become a frost-defender dragon. Then use frost
breath. Nina use ice based spell and Peco should attack. When you kill the
two monsters, go for the old man.
Garr V.S. Ryu
Having Ryu cast protect first then change to flame-defender dragon and
attack. Just knock Garr a few round and Garr will go down.( Thanks Cnsoplis
again to telling me this.)
This is basically the boss you will meet in Ryu's child form.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
----------------------------------
Here starts the boss Ryu will face when he is an adult. It is only a few
because I didn't finish the game yet.
Boss: D. Zombie
Party: Ryu and Garr
Strategy: Wait and heal up until D. Zombie is out of AP. Don't try to heal
the poison, because it will poison you again. When D. Zombie is out of AP.
(20 minutes after) having Ryu become a Flame-Eldritch dragon and use inferno.
Garr should attack and be the healer.
Boss: Weretiger (Rei)
Party: Ryu and Garr
Strategy: Just use attack and Weretiger will run off.
Boss: Midba
Party: Ryu Garr Rei
Strategy: Use defender formation and put Ryu and Garr in the Head. First
Ryu should cast shield. And Garr uses item to revive Rei. The next turn
having Rei heal him and he will become the Weretiger. Ryu then cast protect
on Rei, and Garr heal. In this battle Ryu and Garr should both be the
healer. And let Rei is the only one attacks Midba. Because Rei some times
will hit your party member.
Steal: Silver Mail
Boss: Huge slug
Party: Peco Momo Ryu
Strategy: Use attack formation and Peco in the head. Ryu should use force
Gene and use Aura until running out AP. While Momo cast might on Peco and let
Peco attack.
Boss: Plate Director (Forgot the Name)
Party: Peco Momo Ryu
Strategy: Use attack formation and Peco in the head. Ryu became a flame-
force dragon. The use Aura until you running out HP. Mono case might on
each then attack. As for Peco, Just let him attack. This is a tough boss.
Don't try to revive a party member if he is dead. It is ether you win or you
die. (It took me 4 time to beat this boss)
Geist V.S. Ryu
Having Ryu case protect and barrier on himself. Then become a Force-
defender-frost dragon. Use frost breath twice to take out the two torches.
Then use Aura two times. After that attack him with frost claw.
Boss: Angler
Party: Peco Ryu Garr
Strategy: All three characters attack, and let Ryu be the healer. You
shouldn't have that much trouble to kill this fish.
Boss: Ammonites
Party: Peco Ryu Rei
Strategy: Let Rei be the healer because he is fast, and let Peco attack.
While Ryu cast Shield and barrier on all party, the let him become a frost-
force dragon, and use Aura. Be sure don't put Ryu in the first row so he have
less chance to be confused.
Steal: Life Shard
Boss: Jono
Party: Peco Ryu Momo
Strategy: Since you can't cast dragon spell in this battle, be sure to casts
protect 5 times, I'm not kidding, then cast Barrier on each one twice. And
having Momo cast speed on Ryu so he is faster then Jono, after that having
Momo cast might on each on twice. Peco should just attack. And have Ring of
Fire really helps in here. Jono has lots of HP but if you stay healthy, and
fight hard, you will win.
Boss: Mammoth
Party: Peco/Garr Ryu Rei
Strategy: Ok, I know you just got the infinity dragon gene, and you want to
try in on this boss. But don't, infinity is not that good as it sounds.
Just having Ryu cast shield and barrier. Then change to a force dragon and
use Aura to knock this boss for 4~5 time and it will die.
Steal: Power Food
Boss: Chimera
Party: Ryu Peco Rei
Strategy: To fight this boss, you have to remember one thing: don't let it
paralyze you, cure it right way. And this boss only does physical attack, so
you don't need to cast barrier. Just cast shield 2 times and become a force
dragon and use Aura. (No boss except Myria can hold Aura for 6 times, even
Teepo will die after 6 hit.)
Boss: Teepo (Arwan)
Since you only have Ryu this is a tough battle. But you shouldn't having a
hard time if you equip a dream ring, just remember to heal yourself when HP
gets low. But does save you AP for the up come real battle.
Boss: Teepo (D. Lord)
Party: Rei Momo Ryu
Strategy: Teepo has about 10000 HP, but don't worry, having Ryu cast shield,
then use Force gene and use Aura for 6 time and it will die. (Teepo may be
faster than you, and may be he will kill one of you character in the first
round, don't try to revive that character, but instead, raise defense of the
other two, then go back to revive that character. You can steel a Dragon
Sword from Teepo, but it is not necessary since the Royal Sword is better.)
Steal: Dragon Sword
Boss: Sample10, 11&12
Party: Ryu Momo Rei
Strategy: Use having Rei steel a life shard form each of the boss, while Momo
cast Might, Ryu cast barrier on each. Having elemental ring really helps
here. Attack the Ice cast one first, then the thunder cast one, and finally
the red one. (If Ryu become a flame-ice-thunder dragon to fight this battle,
he will not be harmed.)
Boss: Myria
Party: The best you have
Strategy: Myria has 15000~20000 HP and have a lot harmful spells, having all
three character equip Protector a helmet you can buy in the ferries village,
this will reduce the chance of status change. Also make sure that you has at
least one character faster than Myria, Myria can dispel your assist spells so
cast shield often. When Myria start cast Holocaust turn Ryu into a force
dragon and uses Aura, you might also want to use a wisdom fruit on Ryu since
Aura takes 20 AP each.
Note: the best fishing rod I found so far is found in steel grave, go down
stairs and having Momo blow the door. Get in and you will see a chest, in
side you will find it. The rod I purchase in faeries village is also good
but it is too hard to control when fishing. And if you are in a clear game,
go to the house where Bow is fishing. Bow will give the best fish rod in the
game in you obtain the level of Master of angling + +.( I haven' done in
yet, but my friend got it.)
One thing I find out about Force Armor: If in a battle, the enemy cast
Depress on you, instead of lose MP, you gain MP.
I also heard a rumor that if you do not talk to the forth women before you
fight Myria, Myria will not cast either Holocaust or Venom.
At last I should thank CAPCOM who made such wonderful game, and Sony for
making the kick ass Play Station system. And Ma who encourage me to write
this.
