    Fun Fact: If you spared Magus at the cliff and took him as a follower and start this battle with him in your party, Magus' theme plays instead of this and you get some dialogue directly between Zeal and Magus

      I'll be forever greatful for the fact that I knew about this while playing the game, making me not being afraid using Magus in my party. I loved using the party of Lucca, Robo and Magus, also this scene was much more impactful, both because of the extra dialogue and Battle with Magus under it. I honestly thought the "with Magus" part in the title of the theme was meant to be a reference to the fact that it can appear both with him as an ally or an enemy, though I later found out this is just a common way of Square titling their character specific battle themes

      As well as Frog Squash in fact for her FIRST 2 turns I ONLY had her use Halation and killed her by using Luminare Frog Squash and Dino Tail BUT since I STOLE 40 to 50 + mega elixers I used the Prism Spects Crono Sun Glasses Ayla and the Power Ring to boost the damage.
      Her head/hands form IMHO her WORST attack is the FULL party WATER spell so I made sure that Crono Ayla Frog ABSORB that spell before starting ALL the back to back battles at lv 50.

    You can counter the Mammon Machine raising its defense by having Frog use a normal attack with the Masamune. They're both made from Dreamstone so it's weak against it

  • @TheBanishedWind
    @TheBanishedWind 5 років тому +13

    If you bring Magus to this, the second battle with Queen Zeal will be extended with lines from him and the queen reacting to his presence, accompanied by "Magus Confronted" which is a MUCH more fitting BGM for such a climactic battle.

    • @TheBanishedWind
      @TheBanishedWind 4 роки тому

      Also, if Frog does a regular attack on the Mammon Machine while it's altering energy, he will be healed if he is equipped with the Masamune. Not sure if it MUST be the upgraded version, but why wouldn't you have it?

    Queen Zeal is most visible villain of entire game (Lavos is more of a plot element) and in the end she is so far gone that killing her doesn't make her understand anything. She merely joins Lavos directly from her bodily vessel which can endure 16 300 years.

  • @GregoryWeagle
    @GregoryWeagle 6 років тому +3

    Queen Zeal 1 pattern: Halation, MP absorb move, Zeal spheres (used by Golem), loop. Usually. No counters.
    Mammon Machine (In Japan known as the Demonic Vessel): Store mode on, release energy, Store Mode Off, Still Mode On, Point Flare done twice in a row, Loop. Counters physicals by raising defense, counters magic by raising attack. Values reset after energy is released.
    Zeal (Left Hand): Dark Beam. Counters with MP Buster/MP Reaver when attacked with anything, including Charm.
    Zeal (Right Hand): Yellow laser. Counters with Lifeshaver when attacked with anything (reduce HP to 1); including Charm.
    Zeal (Andross-equse Head): 1st phase: Heavenly Gate multiple times, Starburst/Hexagon Mist, Gears of Darkness/Dark Gear, Loop.
    2nd phase (10,000 HP damage is dealt): Halation (only used once per battle), MP Buster (only used once per battle), Heavenly Gate multiple times, Loop.
    Notes: If Magus is in your party; his theme music plays and there is different dialogue.
    Starburst/Hexagon Mist uses the Star Of David and has never been edited in any version of this game.

    Nope. Zombor comes to mind. As does Magus and the Reptilian enemy in 65M BC. There's a lot of actual bosses in the game, Lavos being the "final boss," but Chrono Trigger did give us a LOT of optional bosses. This is, without a doubt, my favorite video game of all time. There's a lot of great games, but Chrono Trigger did everything so well and gave you so much to do.

I also would have required the player to beat it before beating Lavos. It would change speedrunning strategies since this can be skipped. Like many good games from that era it needed a difficulty level.

    Many games these days I hope make beating areas more mandatory. They also need difficulty levels. I'm grateful for the effort put into the best games of that era. We've learned to improve since then. The final game might be as challenging as the gamer wants. I've done and seen some insane stuff myself. We never know how hard is too hard?

  • @Greatermaxim

    This creates a paradox. My friend told me to fight this thing in present and then past to get at least two copies of the items from Zeal's hands. But if you ever finished off the Black Omen in the Ice Age how does it ever exist in the Past, Present, or Future? Gotta love fiction and continuity.
