Hello everyone and how are things going? I hope all good. I know I haven't been posting on here like I should be, but with me being busy with both work and school, it kind of takes it toll on me and puts behind on the things I would like to accomplish in my life.
However, I am planning on something totally cool, IMO. and that is a countdown list of my most hated enemies that I have encountered in the video games that I currently own. So, to start off the countdown, I present to you, BOSS #10: Chrono Cross' DIVINE DRAGON GOD , THE TIME DEVOURER, FATE computer, and GARAI.
This boss, is a combination of every single one of the dragons that you encounter in the game in order to gain their blessings and head to Chronopolis. This boss, if not fully prepared for and if you are not paying any attention to what his innate color is at the beginning of the battle, can be a pain in the ass. If I remember right, his default innate is white. (if it is different, please let me know, it has been a LONG time, since I had played this awsome game!)
However, as the battle progresses, it will change from white to either RED, GREEN, YELLOW, BLUE or BLACK. You will know, which its current innate color is, by its environment. While fighting this brute, he will change locations, giving you a hint as to what element to use against him. That is why, it is necessary to pay attention to the dragons when you go to receive their blessings, that way you will know what its innate is and what to use against the Dragon God when you go to face him.
If you guess wrong, I believe the attack will heal the boss, instead of getting you one step closer to your goal of defeating him. I also believe that this boss has a habit of casting elements one right after the other, in hopes of casting an excrutiatingly powerful spell, that could spell doom for your characters.
However, he is not the only boss to share this same spot: The games' FINAL boss, the TIME DEVOURER, is a remnant of Chrono Trigger's final boss, Lavos.
This boss, like the DRAGON GOD, can be a handful if not fully prepared for. However, in order to defeat him and get the good ending, you must have acquired the CHRONO CROSS, an element that is both melody and harmony and unites the elements in to a single beautiful melody.
You CAN kill the Time Devourer just by attacking it, but you will not be able to save Schala, and will thus get just a game over screen once the credits roll. So, In order to get the good ending you must do the following:
You MUST cast the elements in this order: RED, YELLOW, GREEN, BLUE, BLACK, WHITE and then once you have successfully done that, cast the CHRONO CROSS, which is equipped on Serge. This will end the game, free Schala and give you the good ending, though the ending left quite a bit to be desired and wasn't very inspirtational.
But, Becareful, because the Time Devourer can mess up your pattern at any time, should his turn come before yours. Luckily, I was able to resonate the elements and the chrono cross in one shot the first time. The second time, I wasn't so lucky. It took me nearly 30 minutes to successfully execute the Chrono Cross.
I have one more boss of Chrono Cross to share the #10 spot: FATE. The super-computer from the future that is found in Chronopolis, guarding the FROZEN FLAME.
This was the Super-Computer, that allowed Serge's father to enter the chamber of the Frozen Flame so that his child could live after being bitten by a panther demon. Upon meeting FATE, the player realizes that FATE remembers who Serge is and even calls him the "Arbitor" of the FROZEN FLAME.
However, things do not go well and FATE tries to stop the party from viewing the Flame, which is rumored to be a shard of Lavos that the heroes of time defeated long ago. FATE even warns the party, that they should not alter time, that it should be allowed to flow normally.
================================
One other character, that could be counted as a side-quest boss, is Garai. He is Dario and Glenn's older brother and one of the seven dragoon deva's, whos spirit lives on the Isle of the Damned and is possessed by the Masamune, A demon Blade which possesses its weilder and turns them mad.
He can also be a pain in the ass, but in order to gain Glenn's other Einlanzer and enable him to weild two swords at once, you must visit the Isle of the Damned and defeat him by freeing him from the curse of the Masamune.
================================
And there you have it! The four bosses in Chrono Cross that are tied with the #10 Spot: DRAGON GOD, TIME DEVOURER, FATE computer and GARAI. I found these four to be the toughest in this game and are NOT by far the most annoying or challenging ones I have faced to date.
Stay tuned, for further additions to the countdown as they become available in my short-termed memory! XD
Also, it should be NOTED: some of the information that I have given may not be totally accurate. If you have played this game, you may have to refresh my memory on some of the details, as I have not played this game in such a long time.
So, I hope you will continue to enjoy the next post when I am ready to post it! have a wonderful night!
