Looking for an ultra-super-duper-in-depth guide for Chrono Cross? Then you're
reading the wrong FAQ. :)
-----------------------------
--- VERSION HISTORY ---
-----------------------------
Version Final | January 23, 2002
Did a little reformatting and corrected many of the spelling errors that
plagued the guide. Well, that was the entire reason for this update.
Version FINAL | June 17, 2001
Don't want to leave this FAQ hanging, so it's marked as the Final Version at
last. Hasn't been long, but it's complete. It's about time I switch focus to
another FAQ. Although, this is marked as Final, I may pop in some times just
to make very minor corrections. Thanks everyone for reading.
Version 1.2 June 4, 2001
Nothing big here. I added a great strategy for Lavos by "redassault". Thanks
a lot. Just thought I'd pop in before I mark a Final version. It will be
soon.
Version 1.13 May 25, 2001
Oh my, it's amazing how stupid this FAQ reads when you go through it. :) Well
I just fixed a lot of careless mistakes that involve tons of grammatical and
spelling mistakes. Sheesh! I also found several words that replaced the word
I was meaning to type. Ack, I made myself look like I was some person trying
to write English for the first time (that was not intended to offend anyone).
I didn't add anything special; I just had to brush up on this FAQ a bit so I
don't have to seem so stupid. Other than major writing corrections, there's
nothing really exciting that was added. Although, not ALL mistakes have been
corrected. I will get to those later, but right now I'm in a hurry.
Version 1.1 May 23, 2001
Finished with everything, the whole FAQ is done! This is the first release of
this FAQ and there will be no further necessary updates except maybe for some
grammar and spelling mistakes. Everything is pretty much done. However, if I
feel there is anything significant to add, I won't hesitate to update it. But
until there is anything really important to add, this is it I hope. I've been
working on this like a maniac, and it's greatly appreciated for any feedback.
Everything is new, so feel free to browse around (well, I can't stop you from
doing so, anyway). If I get feedback with many questions or requests, or
something, I will see what I can do to adjust to any new settings. Keep in
mind that just because the FAQ is done, it doesn't mean that there will be no
more updates, period. Although, I think it will be mostly minor updates, the
FAQ may undergo some changes later on (I tend to do that). :) I will leave
this guide open to any contributions, if any.

This is a new project I am trying out and I thought it'd be a great feat if I
could tackle it. Chrono Cross proved to be one of my all time favorite games
and whenever I have a favorite something, I have to show my um, "fan-hood" or
something. This idea for doing a flowchart-walkthrough spawned from an
inspiration I had when I saw HYuy's Final Fantasy VIII flowchart FAQ. It was
unique in its content and layout. It quickly became one of my favorite FAQs.
And with his permission, I was able to adopt his format and mold it into this
guide.
Please remember that this is a quickie walkthrough through the game. This FAQ
is by no means the end-all information source. This is just a quick reference
guide, sort of like Elranzer's but not quite (and much bigger). The main
purpose of this FAQ is to basically show the events that succeed one another
in walkthrough form. You will not find lists of any kind, detailed, step by
step walkthroughs, detailed boss strategies, how-to-find-all-characters tips,
and any other miscellaneous things, or something. However, you will find a
complete boss preparation and strategy for the boss fight available only in
New Game+: The battle against Ozzie, Flea and Slash. It was included in this
guide because it's just there, so hah. And maybe the endings list, too. ^___^
Please refer to the following guides at GameFAQs.com:
- DJellyBean's FAQ/Walkthrough
- ATadeo's FAQ/Walkthrough
- Ranma's Boss FAQ
- CB!'s Character FAQ
Of course, that's only a selected few. There are many more than that. So go
check out all the FAQs on the GameFAQs.com page. If you can't find what you
are looking for there, then it probably doesn't exist. Also, check out my
Chrono Cross Original Soundtrack Guide on the same GameFAQs page. </shameless
self plug>
Purpose of this FAQ
--------------------
There is no real purpose, but to help those RPGamers out there. Actually, the
time spent on this FAQ helped boost my determination to write better guides
in the future. I worked hard on this, yes, but I didn't exert myself fully
into this guide, which I should always do. So in this document, you may find
many flaws and imperfections. I just hope I made this interesting enough to
warrant total respect for this guide and have nothing copied from it. I guess
you can say I rushed through this guide a bit. If you have any suggestions as
to help improve this FAQ, feel free to send them my way.
How to use this FAQ
--------------------
The layout for this specific FAQ may be unfamiliar to you as it has been used
on very few FAQs. It was possible for me to use this layout because of HYuy's
Final Fantasy VIII's flowchart FAQ. As I've mentioned before, my Chrono Cross
guide will be identical to his FFVIII's guide, but with my own work and all.
This FAQ is pretty simple to use. The game walkthrough chart's split into two
sections: Left and Right. The left side contains the general walkthrough cut
into simple steps based on the chronological order of events and sequences.
The right side consists of character profiles whenever your party meets a new
character, simple boss strategies, game comments, and detailed descriptions
on how to do something specific. Basically, it's there to act as a reference.
So with that notion down, are you ready to read the walkthrough?

_______________________________________________________________________NOTE
/__________________________________________________________________________
| Yes, I do know that I'm missing items. That was my intent. This guide was |
| designed to lead you out of the dark and to light the path for troubled |
| warriors like yourself. So you will not find every single detail listed. |
| Some gamers take pride in finding everything themselves. |
|___________________________________________________________________________|
What was the start of all this?
When did the cogs of fate begin to turn?
Perhaps it is impossible to grasp that answer now,
From deep within the flow of time.
But for a certanty, back then
We loved so many yet hated so much
We hurt others and were hurt ourselves.
Yet even then we ran like the wind
Whilst our laughter echoed
Under cerulean skies....

| about to undergo. Bleah. | Now is actually a good time to recruit the|

| | This is your first real dungeon. Not much |
| LIZARD ROCK | of a dungeon on account of the cheery |

| I hope you know what you | |

| | |------------------------------------------ |
| Find the treasure chests.| Throughout this area, there will be chests|
| | | containing items. It will take some doing |
| | | to get to some of them, but it isn't hard |
| | | to figure it out. I'll just keep it at |
| | | that. I'm sure you will find them. |
| ------------------------- |------------------------------------------ |
| Pick on the first Komodo | To "capture" this Komodo Pup, first, scare|

| | | to it. Then strip it of it's scale. |
| | |------------------------------------------ |
| Head south from the area | This is a bit trickier. You will find it |
| to encounter the third | walking casually around, beneath a ledge. |
| and final Komodo Pup. | Go up the green vine next to the cliff. |
| | | Ditch the Beach Bums and proceed onto the |
| | | edge. You will see the pup walking briskly|

| | | |

| Beach which is south of | |
| Lizard Rock. | |
| | |
| ------------------------- |------------------------------------------ |
| | This is where you adventure really begins.|
| OPASSA BEACH | There isn't much to do here except watch |
| ------------ | the dialogue and sequences and stuff...so |
| | like yeah. |
| ------------------------- |------------------------------------------ |
| It appears Leena hasn't | |
| arrived yet. But it isn't| |
| long before she does. | |
| | | |

| ------------------------- |------------------------------------------ |
| Serge is distracted by | |
| someone's voice in the | Whose voice is it? |
| distant. | |
| | | |
| Serge looks into the | |
| waters. | |
| | |------------------------------------------ |
| Brief FMV of Serge. | From this point on, everything will be |

| -------------- | |
| (Another World) | Nothing to do here 'cept watch short |
| | sequences. |
| ------------------------- |------------------------------------------ |
| Old man wakes up Serge. | Remember Serge blacked out. The odd thing |
| | | is that Leena is no where to be found. |
| Serge finally wakes up to|------------------------------------------ |

| pup is kicking sand in | Damn! I thought we killed those things! |

| Leave the beach. |------------------------------------------ |
| | | |
| Enter Lizard Rock once | |
| more. | |
| ------------------------- |------------------------------------------ |
| | |
| LIZARD ROCK | No specific goal here. Just backtrack and |
| ------------- | return to the village. And um...stuff. |
| | You'll probably notice a few things...:) |
| ------------------------- |------------------------------------------ |
| Explore "the rock" and | If you haven't noticed already, everything|
| notice different things. | is different. The background is an exact |
| | | replica of the previous rock, but enemies |
| | | are different, as well as the placement of|

| | | |
| Avoid, or don't, the new | The enemies now are generally tougher than|

| | | They're more vicious and feisty. |
| Leave the area. |------------------------------------------ |
| | | |
| Go to Arni Village. | |
| ------------------------- |------------------------------------------ |
| | |
| ARNI VILLAGE | |
| ------------ | Your main goal here is to speak with Leena|
| (Another World) | who is again, at the pier looking after |
| | the kids. Swell babysitter isn't she? :) |
| ------------------------- |------------------------------------------ |
| Arni Village has changed | Arni Village isn't the same Arni Village |
| | | you once knew. The place looks a lot nicer|
| | | than that sordid fish village in the other|
| | | place. The strange thing is that no one |
| | | recognizes you. Your mother is no longer |
| Explore the town to find | in the house you once called home. Instead|
| things that weren't there| it is now owned by someone who has claimed|
| before, and people too. | to have lived there 10 years. Your room is|
| | | now inhabited by a pup charging 100G for a|
| | | night's stay. Sheesh. |
| Find Leena on the pier. |------------------------------------------ |
| | | Blah! She doesn't recognize you either. |
| | | Even your persistency in claiming that you|
| | | are Serge won't change her callous heart. |
| | | Leena'll break the news to you: the Serge |
| Learn about Serge in this| she knew had died about 10 years ago. He |
| world. | died by drowning at the age of 7. |
| | | Impossible? We'll soon find out. |
| | |------------------------------------------ |
| Look for new elements. | |
| | | |
| Leave Arni for Cape Howl.| |
| ------------------------- |------------------------------------------ |
| | |
| CAPE HOWL | Weave around the steaming geysers and go |
| --------- | to the far end of the area. |
| | |
| ------------------------- |------------------------------------------ |
| Pick up the items along | |
| the way. | |
| | | |
| Inspect the tombstone. | |
| | | |
| Three soldiers appear and| Karsh, Solt and Peppor. |
| accost Serge. | |
| | | |
| A mysterious voice is | |
| audible nearby. | |
| | | |
| Reveals to be a young | Who is she? |
| mysterious girl. | |
| | | |
| ------------------------- |------------------------------------------ |
| Karsh and gang close in | BOSS FIGHT: Karsh, Solt and Peppor |
| on the heroes. | |
| | | This battle is 40% tutorial and 60% actual|
| | | battle. Solt and Peppor's unintentional |
| | | comical behavior does not fail to impress |
| | | you. If you read their dialogue closely, |
| | | you'll know they've revealed their weak |
| Learn how to defeat them | spot. Eliminate Karsh first, as he tends |
| thanks to Solt 'n Peppor.| to be the strongest character. Then tend |
| | | to the other two dunces later. Use your |
| | | elements sparingly. Remember, the chick in|
| | | your party has nice elements. |
| ------------------------- |------------------------------------------ |
| The girl will introduce | She is the same girl from that dungeon |
| herself as Kid. | dream in the beginning of the game. |
| | |------------------------------------------ |
| She will ask you to join | Here's a small branching part in the game.|
| her on her journey. | Not in the story department, but it has to|

| > Reject | Leena, refuse Kid three times. Don't worry|
| | | you can recruit Kid again at Termina and |
| | | again, after she recovers from something. |
| ------------------------- |------------------------------------------ |
| Serge will end up back in| It doesn't matter what you did previously.|
| Arni Village resting. | Serge will still be sleeping in Arni. =P |
| | | The only difference is that Kid will come |
| | | if she joined your party. Or Leena will |
| | | come, depending on what you did. |
| Kid gives you Tele-porter|------------------------------------------ |
| ONLY if she is in your | |
| party. | |
| | | |
| Make preparations for | ______________Character Recruitment: Mojo |
| journey. | |
| | | You can do this at anytime, but if you |
| | | want to add more varieties to your party, |
| | | now is a good time to recruit him. With |
| | | Kid or Leena, head to the same guy you got|
| | | Shark Tooth from, and this time give it |
| | | back. After the sequence, attempt to leave|
| | | and the straw idol will come to life and |
| | | call himself Mojo. |
| ------------------------- |------------------------------------------ |
| | |
| FOSSIL VALLEY | Just find your way around and head to the |
| ------------- | opposite exit. Collect a few treasures |
| | along the way. |
| ------------------------- |------------------------------------------ |
| Go to the guy near the | |
| ladder. | |
| | | |
| He will ask if you guys | |
| are the exorcists they're| |
| expecting. |------------------------------------------ |
| > Yes, we are! | Choosing "Yes, we are!" will make him move|
| > No, we're not! | to the side and let you through. While |
| | | choosing the other option...nothing really|

| | | |
| | | Guile is somewhat of a magician and all |
| | | attacks are based on magic. I highly |
| | | recommend this guy as your guide for the |
| | | first playthrough. His tech skills are |
| | | real killers, but too bad his element grid|
