something, missed a space, or made any other mistakes, like a stray letter
or, God forbid, a letter that should be capitalized, or possible ways you

---Version Information---
v 2.0 - Added from Royal Jelly to T.D.(Fused Dragon) in the Attack Patterns
section. Tested everything that used to be (untested), removed
Earth Dragon from possible ways to get Earthquake. Added a note
about Terrator to the Element Location List, and tryed to make the
Key look a little nicer, adding a TD note to that. I made a few
more insignificant alterations here and there. This should be my
last update, unless I test the techs for physical- or magical-based
attributes, or if I ever get to filling in the steals/drops I
missed.
-06/24/03
v 1.9 - Added more Attack Patterns, revised the main Element Location list.
I'll list the revisions, to save you time if they're all you need.
Revisions: Sky Dragon does NOT use Holy Light, confirmed that Black
Dragon uses FreeFall, confirmed Water Dragon uses Deluge, confirmed
Fire Dragon(second form) uses Inferno, as does Vita Unus and Dark
Serge, added Dark Serge to all the trappables he uses, all three
Vitas use Volcano, Peppor uses ThundaStorm, reconfirmed both Solt
and Peppor use Golem, Dario uses FreeFall, completed Green Dragon
Attack Pattern, added Patterns for all the Dragons(except for two
I misplaced) through Fate, as well as Orlha and Dario. PolisPolice
drops PhysNegate, MegaStarky drops MagNegate, Steal:Fate:HolyHealing.
-03/16/03
v 1.8 - Some fixes here and there for missed words and spelling errors
mostly. Added some dividers and separated some sections for
simpler navigation. Added another Pip trick (thanks A Demon's
Requiem!). Added some important notes too.
-09/09/02
v 1.7 - I re-did the entire Attack Pattern section and added 11 more
patterns to it.
-09/08/02
v 1.5 - Some minor revisions. Added a new Sprigg section, just has
dopplegangs that would aid in doing the CusCus trick before
actually getting the level 5 and 6 trappables.
-08/09/02
v 1.2 - Hey, my guide's been accepted, hooray for me, now the first update:
I fixed all the lines to 77 letters per line from it's previous 78
letters per line to make sure it works for everyone. Finished the
CusCus trick, I guess I didn't notice that I stopped a little short
last time, heh, and I added some more drops and steals. Put in a lot
more attack patterns too, and revised some inconsistencies.
-06/29/02
v 1.0 - Lots of element and tech locations complete, working on level 5 tech
star levels and dropped/stolen element lists. -06/27/02

There's a few FAQs that list the names of the elements, and what they do, but
not one FAQ says _how_ to get each element. So, I thought I would. Enjoy.

A. ELEMENT LOCATIONS
:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
Here's my compiled list of the locations of all the elements, I've started
my own stolen/dropped list, but that's nowhere near done, so that could
take awhile, I would use the one posted, but it's not actually complete,
it's missing some things, and there's a few errors, so that'll be up
eventually, I've only got a few enemy drops/steals up so far. First,
here's the key, it took a while to make so at least glance at it before
you get down to the rest:
___
|KEY|_______________________________________________________
|~ "*" indicates a summon, x5 indicates a consumable element|
|~ "(trap)" indicates a trap element |
|~ digits ("x±x") on left indicates the element level |
|~ "home" means "Home World" |
|~ "another" means "Another World" |
|~ "()" indicates a location or condition |
|~ "Weak" is the weaker version of an enemy |
|~ "Strong" is the stronger version of an enemy |
|~ "Medium" is between Strong and Weak |
|~ Solt and Peppor are fought 6 times, "first" to "final" |
|~ The TimeDevourer(Fused Dragon) has 7 'phases' of attack, |
| the (#) next to it's name indicates which 'phase' it |
| uses the specified element(s) |
|~ Also, there are two Time Devourers, I'll refer to one as |
| the "Fused Dragon" and the other as "final". |
|~ Hydra Marshes is the one place impossible to describe |
| chest locations in, so chests there lack specific |
| directions |
|~ If Home or Another is not specified it is found in both |

Trappable element note: The Time Devourer(final) is able to use any attack
element in the game except summons, so you may trap some from it(greens are
your best bet, that's all it'll use until it's hurt enough), but you won't
have them until you use a New Game+ or Continue+ from that file. A good
last resort if you missed Carnivore from all the bosses, not as good as the
Sprigg-CusCus trick combo, but good if you don't feel like wasting time.

the analog buttons, L3 and R3, work for it).
2. Double Techs
There are few Double Techs in this compared to the huge amount in
Chrono Trigger, and I've tried every combination possible except
for a few Sprigg Dopplegangs. To execute a Double Tech get each
party member involved to have the Tech ready to be used ready,
and make sure they have at least 1 stamina point left, then their
Tech will change into the double tech until they use it,one drops
below 1 stamina, or if one uses their tech before the other has
enough power to combine them. You may have seen me post this list
on the Message boards, so for those who have, here it is again:
|Character 1|Level of Tech|Name of Tech|+
|Charcater 2|Level of Tech|Name of Tech|=
|Double Tech|Color of Tech|
Serge(3)Dash&Slash+
Glenn(3)Dash&Gash=

3. Triple Techs
These are done exactly the same as Double Techs, except they are
done with three characters instead of two, although the damage from
Dash&Slash alone usually does more damage, and there's only two:
|Character 1|Level of Tech|Name of Tech|+
|Character 2|Level of Tech|Name of Tech|+
|Charcater 3|Level of Tech|Name of Tech|=

C. SPRIGG'S DOPPLEGANGS
:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
If Sprigg, or any character wearing the Forget-me-not-pot accessory kills an
enemy, that enemy will be added to the list of enemies that Sprigg can
transform into using her Dopplegang tech. SPRIGG DOES NOT NEED TO WEAR THE
FORGET-ME-NOT-POT TO LEARN DOPPLEGANGS. That's been brought up a lot and I
just needed to make that clear to everyone.
Anyway, Some of the Dopplegangs are just plain useless, but others can be
extremely beneficial when paired up with the CusCus trick, and because
Sprigg's strength is so low and she's a green innate, they take little
damage from her physical attacks, just try to get into battles with more
than two CusCus(sometimes you can get three or four, and sometimes they
come with a DoDo, any of those groups should work). What I mean by being
useful with the trick, is that they have at least one trappable level 5 or
6 element, so you can transform into that form and use it on the CusCus
without anyone actually equipping that particular element. It's especially
good for getting Carnivore, because the enemies that use it are easily
missed. Alright, here's the Dopplegangs and the level the "good"
elements are set at in each "good" form.
1. Enemy: Bulb
Level 5/6 Element and level it's set at
Carnivore (+1), level 6
2. Enemy: Gerridae
Level 5/6 Element and level it's set at
Deluge (+3), level 8
3. Enemy: Dwarf
Level 5/6 Element and level it's set at

5. Enemy: Beeba

ThundaStorm (-3), level 3
6. Enemy: Cybot
Level 5/6 Element and level it's set at
Earthquake (-1), level 4
Earthquake (-2), level 3
7. Enemy: Total Chaos
Level 5/6 Element and level it's set at

Iceberg (+1), level 7
14. Enemy: Flea

15. Enemy: Ozzie
Level 5/6 Element and level it's set at

D. ATTACK PATTERNS
:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
Some enemies use random attacks and spells, but the majority of them have a
set pattern of attacks that they will go through, and usually repeat. This is
a list of the ones several other players and I have observed. Some of the
enemies change their pattern when they're low on HP, you can tell because
they will usually start hunching over or holding their head; for example,
MegaStarky holds his head and slouches forward when he changes his pattern
and by letting him live a bit longer could get you a rare Ultranova element.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. Enemy Patterns
This first section has common enemies that can be fought more than
once and in portals in the Bend of Time.
A > and < on each side of an element indicates that you can trap it.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
}ENEMY{: Airframe
These are the most difficult enemy to trap a Summon Element from,
but believe me, MotherShip works wonders on Miguel. The hardest
part about it is finding one that'll use it, there's actually
three different kinds of Airframe patterns, if they attack in a
group they follow one pattern, and the game seems to randomly
select which of two patterns it follows when alone. These
patterns apply to those located in the Isle of the Damned(home).
Pattern: #1 - Group pattern
PowerDive
Gravitonne
Attack
PowerDive
Attack x2
>FreeFall<
Attack x3
(repeat)
Pattern: #2 - Lone Pattern
PowerDive
HellBound
Attack
PowerDive
Gravitonne
Attack x3
>FreeFall</MotherShip(trap)/>MotherShip<(if field is black)
Attack x3
(repeat)
If it uses FreeFall and you want the Summon, you'll have to Run
Away and try again, and if you wanted the FreeFall and it uses
the trap or summon, you'll have to do the same. In other words,
it'll never use both FreeFall and MotherShip in the same battle,
but it will definitely use the summon if it uses the trap.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
}ENEMY{: Bulb
It'll follow this pattern as long as it attacks you by itself. A
very simple way to get Sonja, you can get the summon pretty
early this way. Find these in Shadow Forest(home).
Pattern:
Attack
Attack
Bushwhacker
>Sonja< (trap if field isn't green)
Bushwhacker
Attack
>Sonja< (see above note)
Attack
>Sonja< (see above note)
(repeats Sonja...over and over and over)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
}ENEMY{: Centaurpede
They follow one pattern when the field is Yellow, and one when it
isn't. A great way to stock up on Earthquakes, once you've got
your Golem summon it's all they'll use once the field is Yellow.
Find them in Hydra Marshes(another).
Pattern: #1 - When Field Effect is not Yellow
GiddyBreath
Attack
Attack x2
Pattern: #2 - When Field Effect is Yellow
Attack
>Golem< (unless previously captured)
>Earthquake<
(repeats Earthquake)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
}ENEMY{: Cupoid
These little guys are a great source of HolyLights. Pretty easy to
spot in various areas of Terra Tower. SlashAll can target one, or
all your characters.
Pattern:
SlashAll
Attack x2
>HolyLight<
Attack
(repeat)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
}ENEMY{: Cybot
Their third attack is random between the two listed. This is the
pattern for the Cybots within Fort Dragonia(home).
Pattern:
Attack
BeatenEarth
BeatenEarth/Attack
Attack x2
>Earthquake<
(repeat)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
}ENEMY{: Dwarf
I fought this Dwarf in the third, bottom portal in the Bend of Time
but I couldn't find any Dwarfs at any part of the game that
followed his pattern, he was alone, but I don't know if it
matters.
Pattern:
HiRes
*Attack
ElectroBolt
Attack
Upheaval
>Earthquake<
ElectroBolt
(repeat from * down)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
}ENEMY{: Taurminator
Not a very threatening enemy, easy for Infernos. Found in Mount
Pyre(home).
Pattern:
Charge!
Attack
Attack x2
>Inferno<
Attack
(repeat)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
}ENEMY{: Tragedienne
They announce the element they will be using in that battle and
they will only use the element they announce, so if none of them
are using anything you want, they won't unless you fight another
bunch, or run away and try again. They use Volcano, BlackHole,
and Tornado, along with some non-trappable elements and techs.
Found in the Tower of Gheddon and third upper portal in the Bend
of Time.
Pattern:
(announced element)
Attack x3
(repeat)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
}ENEMY{: TutanShaman
These guys have two completely different patterns, one pattern
they only follow if the field is red, the other when it isn't.
Easily found in Fossil Valley(another) later in the game.
Pattern #1: Non-red Field
FirePillar
Weaken
NinetyNine
(repeat)
Pattern #2: Red Field
>Volcano<
Attack x3
MagmaBomb
Attack x3
(repeat)

2. Unique Enemy and Boss Patterns
This section covers the one-chance-only enemies, like bosses. There
are a few enemies that you only fight once, but don't give you a star,
like the De-Hydrate in Hydra Marshes, those enemies are also included in
this section. I've listed them in the order which they are fought to be as
spoiler-free as possible.
}BOSS{: Fargo
For his second attack he always uses Strengthen, then each time
he repeats he goes to the next element in the cycle instead.
Pattern:
Attack
Strengthen->EagleEye->LoRes(on self)->Strengthen->etc.
Attack x2
Attack
Aquaball
>Carnivore<
Attack
IceBlast
Attack x3
Aquaball
Attack
ElectroBolt
(repeat)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
}BOSS{: Giant Gloop
A pretty difficult pattern to figure out, but this is your
first chance to capture an Iceberg element. It follows the
same pattern when it's not weakened, but it only uses Iceberg
if it is weakened. For some reason every once in awhile it'll
use CureAll on you, but it doesn't seem to be part of the
pattern, just a random occurrence.
Pattern:
GooeyGoo
TakeIn
Attack
BlueField
>Iceberg<(if you use a red element right after BlueField)
IceLance
IceBlast
Attack x2
(repeat)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
}BOSS{: Sun of a Gun
Sun of a Gun has four "Modes", you can tell which is which from the
faces it makes, because it'll look like that emotion in an extreme
case, except for it's "Unhappy" mode, it looks pretty emotionless
in that state. This is your first chance to capture HolyLight.
Pattern #1: Happy Mode
Attack
KissyWissy
ModeChange(changes to another mode, determined randomly)
Pattern #2: Sad Mode
WeakMinded
StrongMinded
ModeChange(see above note)
Pattern #3: Angry Mode
Attack x3
PhotonBeam
MeteorShower
ModeChange(see above note)
Pattern #4: Unhappy Mode
AntiBlack
>HolyLight<
ModeChange(see above note)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
}BOSS{: Bunyip (1st Form)
Bunyip has two forms, the first, red innate, and the second,
which is black innate. He changes if you hit him for enough
damage, or if you let him complete his first form pattern.
This is your first chance to catch Inferno and Volcano.
Pattern:
MagmaBomb
>Inferno<
Attack
Attack
FirePillar
>Volcano<
Attack
Attack
MagmaBomb
>Inferno<
(morphs to second form)
}BOSS{: Bunyip (2nd Form)
First chance to catch FreeFall.
Pattern:
Attack
Gravitonne
>FreeFall<
DevilThunda
Attack x2
GravityBlow
DevilThunda
(repeat)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
}BOSS{: Lynx
Lynx uses Serge's elements, literally. He uses it and it's grayed
if you check it on Serge's grid as if you had used it. Whichever
one he uses is completely random and if you run out he'll use a
regular attack. He can't use consumable elements, curative
elements, Turn elements, field elements, Magnify, Diminish, or any
"good" assist magic(can't use HiRes, can use LoRes, can use Negate
spells). If you put just traps and one trappable on Serge you can
stock up a little on elements.
Pattern:
GlideHook
Attack x3
(random one of Serge's elements)/Attack
Attack x2
Attack x4
(repeat)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
}BOSS{: Serge
You'll fight them after Lynx, you can't trap anything from them,
but it's good to know how quick they'll kill you on a regular
New Game file. They always fight in this group of three: Serge,
Kid, and the third character depends on who was in the group when
you beat Lynx. They'll only use the techs they use once per
battle.
Pattern:
Attack x3
Dash&Slash(first round)/Attack x4(every round after first)
Attack x3
Attack x4
Luminaire(first round only)/Attack x5(every round after first)
(repeat)
}BOSS{: Kid
(See Serge's description)
Pattern:
Attack x3
Attack x4
RedPin(first round only)/Attack x5(every round after first)
(repeat)
}BOSS{: (Third Fort Dragonia Character)
(See Serge's note) The third character is the third character in
your party when you beat Lynx, they don't use any techs at all.
Pattern:
Attack x3
Attack x4
Attack x3
Attack x4
Attack x5
(repeat)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
}BOSS{: Radius
Not the best way to get Infernos, but he uses it.
Pattern:
Attack
Attack x2
LongShot
PhotonBeam
>Inferno<
Attack
Attack x3
Attack x3
Attack x2
QuickDraw
(repeat)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
}BOSS{: MegaStarky
He uses Ultranova as part of his pattern only when he's in his
weakened state(hunched over holding his head), he's the best way
to get Ultranovas aside from the CusCus trick.
Pattern:
Attack x2
Raydiation
Attack x2
Meteorite
Attack x2
MeteorShower
RecoverAll(only when weakened)
StrongMinded(only when not weakened)
Attack x2
>Ultanova<(only when weakened)
PhotonBeam x2(only when not weakened)
(repeat)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
}BOSS{: Sage (of Marbule)
This is absolutely the most difficult pattern to chart, but he
uses almost every level 5 trappable element, so he's worth the
time if you have some traps for them. Of course, it's not the
pattern that's hard to work with, it's the six counter
patterns.
Pattern:
Attack
Attack x2
Attack x3
(repeat)
Counter Pattern #1: he uses this pattern if hit with a Black element
TurnBlack(on character who used the element on him)*
PhotonBeam(on above character)
Attack(random characters for this and the rest)**
Imbecile
>FreeFall<
(returns to regular Pattern)
Counter Pattern #2: when hit with a Yellow element
TurnYellow(on *)

Counter Pattern #6: when hit with a Red element
TurnRed(*)
IceBlast(*)
Attack(**)
Weaken

(returns to regular Pattern)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
}BOSS{: Miguel
A relatively simple pattern to follow, once his HP reaches critical
(when he slumps over, but is still standing) he'll hit you with two
elements and then restart his pattern. Be warned, HolyDragSwd
does a lot of damage. Another notable thing is that he'll only use
MeteorShower and HolyLight once.
Pattern:
AntiBlack
StrongMinded
WeakMinded
HolyDragSwd
Attack
TurnBlack
PhotonBeam
(repeat)
(when low on HP)
MeteorShower
>HolyLight<
(return to pattern)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
}BOSS{: Water Dragon
I'm having trouble deciphering this one, she seems to switch
directly to Pattern #2 if you hit her with an element(even
Pillage) after you've done enough damage. The round she uses
TsunamiBeam and Deluge in seems to be random, or determined by
how much damage you've done, so if you want Deluge, you better
cross your fingers on this one, or wait for an easier capture.
She heals from blue elements and magic-based techs, but blue
physical-based techs still work.
Pattern #1:
Attack x2
Attack x3
Attack
IceBlast x2 / TsunamiBeam
(repeat) / >Deluge<
(repeat)
Pattern #2:
IceBreath
>Iceberg<
(return to Pattern #1)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
}BOSS{: Earth Dragon
She uses her Catastrophe tech when her HP gets down to critical,
it hits everyone and can cause 'Sprain'. GiddyBreath hits one
character, and can cause 'Dizzy', NaturalGas is the same, but
hits everyone. The Earth Dragon is useless trap-wise, but since
I have all the other Dragon's patterns listed...might as well...
Sometimes she just skips doing the low HP part of the pattern
completely, no idea why though.
Pattern:
Attack x2
Attack x3
Attack
GiddyBreath
(repeat)
(when low on HP)
Catastrophe
Attack x2
NaturalGas
Attack x3
(return to pattern)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
}BOSS{: Green Dragon
His pattern is extremely randomized if you don't let him change
the field green. When the field is NOT green, he follows
Pattern #1, but it's more of a base for a pattern, which he add
whatever he wants to at any given time. When the field is green
he ALWAYS follows Pattern #2. Green Magic-based attacks heal him.
Pattern #1:
BadBreath
BadBreath
Green Field
(repeat)
(when low on HP)
HealPlus
(return to pattern)
(inserted randomly into Pattern #1)
ToxicBreath
Attack x2
Pattern #2:
>Carnivore<
(repeat)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
}BOSS{: Fire Dragon
In his first form he'll follow Pattern #1, and he will NOT counter
any attacks. In his second form he follows Pattern #2, and
counters all blue elements immediately with FieryBreath. Both
forms are healed by red magic-based attacks.
In New Game + he has approximately 1772-1790 HP
Pattern #1:
Attack
FieryBreath
Attack
(repeat)
Pattern #2:
FireBreath
Attack x2
FireBreath
>Inferno<
Strengthen
Attack x3
Brimstone
(repeat)
(counter to blue elements)
FieryBreath
(return to Pattern #2)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
}BOSS{: Black Dragon
His pattern only changes slightly when he's low on HP, but he'll
hit you right away with SealAll(which won't have any effect on
HIM, but you'll be unable to use your elements for a little while)
He counters all white elements used on him with AntiWhite, and
he is healed by black magic-based attacks.
Pattern:
Attack x3
DarkBreath
Attack x3
Genius(on self)(only first round)
GravityBomb
Attack x3
Gravitonne
>FreeFall<
(repeat)
(when low on HP)
SealAll

(repeat from * down)
(counter to white offensive elements)
AntiWhite
(return to pattern)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
}BOSS{: Sky Dragon
When she's down to approximately 3/4 HP remaining she'll add
Ultranova to the end of her pattern, but will only do it once
per battle. When she's down to approximately 1/2 HP remaining
she'll change the last element in her pattern to HolyHealing,
which she'll also only do once per battle. If you bring her
down from more than 3/5 HP to less than 1/2 HP she will use
both in the pattern, naturally. The last element(or second to
last if you brought it below 3/5 HP that round) is chosen
randomly. She is healed by white magic-based attacks.
Pattern:
Attack x2
WhiteBreath
NullState
Attack x3
Magnify
HolyBreath
Attack x3
MagNegate(self)/WeakMinded x2/HolyHealing(once)
>Ultranova<(once)
(repeat)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
}BOSS{: Orlha
Once Orlha goes through the beginning of her pattern, she'll stop
using anything but physical attacks, from a random 1-5 times and
continue to do so for the rest of the battle.
Pattern:
Attack
Attack x2
Multipunch
Strengthen
Attack x3
Genius + Gravitonne(all)
LoRes
Attack x3
>Iceberg<
PunchDrunk
*Attack/Attack x2/Attack x3/Attack x4/Attack x5
(repeat *)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
}BOSS{: Dark Serge
You can capture up to 7 of the 12 trappable elements off him, but
he switches randomly between a set of two for 3 of the 4 times
he uses one in each cycle. It seems he uses BlackHole,
ThundaStorm, and Inferno more often then he uses the others. He
always uses Volcano though, so trapping it is much easier than
the rest. Black magic-based attacks HURT him, unlike the Black
Dragon. Try to steal a Rainbow Shell from him, it's one you can
easily miss.
Pattern:
Attack x3
FeralCats
Attack x4
>Volcano<
Attack x4
ForeverZero
>BlackHole</>Tornado<
Attack x4
>ThundaStorm</>Iceberg<
Attack x2
Strengthen
Attack x4
Ninety-Nine+Vigora
Attack x6
>Inferno</>Carnivore<
(repeat)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
}BOSS{: Solt & Peppor
Each one can use Golem once, but if you caught(or catch one from
one of them) neither can use it anymore. Golem replaces the
"Earthquake x2"s whenever the field is yellow. Their patterns
change slightly when you kill one of them. They sometimes will
skip an Earthquake or a ThundaStorm here and there, but not
very often. If you kill them with a summon, they'll give you
Shiny items, but they only drop denadorite and stone stuff...
Pattern:
Peppor:
Attack x3

(repeat)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
}BOSS{: Dario
He'll counter every element/tech you use on him with an
element/tech of the opposite color. Whatever the last element
you used on him was before he get to his alternating element
attack(indicated by the +), he'll use whichever of the named
elements is the opposite color.
Pattern:

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
}BOSS{: Vita Unus
Despite what the Brady Games guide implies, none of the Vitas
counter elements opposite her innate, or any elements at all,
actually. Vita Unus is the best(although the hardest) to fight.
Not only is it the only way to get Vigora, but you also get
plenty of chances to capture Inferno and Volcano elements.
Vita Unus always attacks in the order Atropos, Lachesis, Clotho,
as long as you visit Present(Clotho) last so it actually is Unus.
In other words, whether you go to Past or Future first doesn't
change the order Vita Unus changes "Fates". Vita Unus's
Fate-record-thing is Red(but almost orange), just like it's
innate.
Pattern:
(Past Fate -Atropos-)
Attack x3
Fireball + EagleEye + Cure
Attack x3
MagmaBomb + InfoScope + Cure
Attack x3
(repeat until you shut down Atropos)
CurePlus
(Future Fate -Lachesis-)

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
}BOSS{: Vita Duo
See note on Vita Unus. Whether you go to Present or Past first
makes no difference in the order you fight each "Fate". Go to
Future(Lachesis) last to fight Vita Duo(and it's "Duo", not
"Dos" like that Brady Games guide says). Vita Duo's
Fate-thing is Green, just like it's innate.
Pattern:
(Present Fate -Clotho-)
Attack x3
EagleEye + Cure + Fireball
Attack x3
InfoScope + Cure + MagmaBomb
Attack x3
(repeat until you shut down Clotho)
>Volcano<

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
}BOSS{: Vita Tres
See note on Vita Unus. Whether you go to Future or Present first
makes no difference in the order you fight each "Fate". Go to
Past(Atropos) last to fight Vita Tres. If it's any use to
anyone, Past has the Purple Record of Fate thing...
Pattern:

}BOSS{: PolisPolice
Try to steal his Rainbow Shell, and don't let him turn the field
white or he'll kill you in one hit, regardless of how much HP
you have(not an instant kill, I mean he does over 1000 damage).
He doesn't use any trappables, but having patterns is convenient,
hehe...
Pattern:
MegatonFist
Attack x2
(repeat until first explosion)
Bazooka
Attack x3
(repeat)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
}BOSS{: FATE
Fate will only use Diminish the first round, then it will replace
it with Attack x2. Make sure you steal his HolyHealing, they're
not very common. Kinda funny that he's raving about being the
'Goddess of Fate', yet his gender is ALWAYS male...hmmm
Pattern:
[ - - - COMMENCING COUNTDOWN - - - ]
[ 5 ]
Diminish
[ 4 ]
Gravitonne
[ 3 ]
HeatRay(single target, damage, chance of Curse/Darkness)

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
}BOSS{: De-Hydrate
A pretty simple pattern, all it uses is Gravitonne when the field
isn't black, all it uses is BlackHole when it is.
Pattern:
Gravitonne
(repeat)
Pattern(when field is Black)
>BlackHole<
(repeat)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
}BOSS{: Criosphinx
It only follows this pattern if you hit it right at the start of
the battle, rather than waiting for it to ask it's riddles. If
you wait for it to ask a riddle, then attack it or if you answer
it's riddle(s) incorrectly, then it will respond with an
Earthquake.
Pattern:
>ThundaStorm<
>Earthquake<
>ThundaStorm<
>Earthquake<
Attack

Attack
(repeat)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
}BOSS{: Royal Jelly
Royal Jelly takes no damage from any physical attacks, and only
Red elements and techs can hurt it. Of course, they do tons of
damage with each hit though, so you don't really have to worry
about it.
Pattern:
Attack x2
Attack
Numble
Attack x2
Vortex
IceBlast
Attack x3
>Iceberg<
(repeat)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
}BOSS{: Terrator
Heals from Yellow Elements and magic-based Techs. Uses Two
Capsules once it's HP starts running low, but only once. DOESN'T
use Golem.
Pattern:
WaveOfFear(all, lower defense) + SpiritsUp(increase defense)
Attack x4
OmegaYellow
(repeat)
(low HP)
Capsule x2
(return to pattern)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
}BOSS{: Pyrotor
Heals from Red Elements and magic-based Techs. Uses Three
Tablets once it's HP starts running low, but only once.
SadnessWave decreases all your character's attack, Rage
increases his. If the Feild effect is red, and you haven't
trapped RedWolf yet, he'll use it instead of Rage once.
Pattern:
SadnessWave(all, decrease attack)
Attack x4

Fireball + FirePillar
Rage(increase attack) + Ninety-Nine / RedWolf + Ninety-Nine
Attack x6
>Volcano<
OmegaRed x2

(return to pattern)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
}BOSS{: Anemotor
Heals from Green Elements and magic-based Techs. Uses HealPlus
once it's HP starts running low, but only once. She switches to
BatEye in place of the GreenField or Sonja if the field is green
and she's already summoned.
Pattern:
InfoScope x3
Bushwhacker + Bushbasher + AeroSaucer + AeroBlaster
OmegaGreen
Attack x2
GreenField / Sonja / BatEye

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
}BOSS{: Gravitor
She's the biggest pain in the game, keeps the field black and
uses instant kills. Go for MotherShip if you don't have it yet,
she'll use it under a black field. She uses Nostrum once, after
she has taken enough damage.
Pattern:
OmegaBlack
Attack x4
HellBound
GravityBlow + Gravitonne + HellSoul
Genius / MotherShip
>FreeFall< x2
>BlackHole<
OmegaBlack
Imbecile x3
Revenge
(repeat)
(low HP)
Nostrum
(return to pattern)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
}BOSS{: Luxator
He only uses Magnify the first round, CrashPulse reduces all
your character's Magic Defense, and NullState raises his. He
heals from White elements and magic-based techs. Easiest thing
to capture Unicorn from, so go for it if you didn't pick one off
a Dodo earlier. NullState is replaced by Unicorn when the field
is white, and that's replaced by StrongMinded if you have the
summon already, or if he already used it.
Pattern:
Attack x4
Magnify + OmegaWhite / PhotonRay + OmegaWhite
MeteorShower
PhotonRay x3
NullState / Unicorn / StrongMinded
Meteorite + PhotonBeam

>UltraNova<
AntiBlack x2 + OmegaWhite

(return to pattern)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
}BOSS{: Aquator
Whoever he hits with Numble he's planning to get wth his 6
attacks in a row next turn. I assume he'd use FrogPrince in
the place of BlueField, but it's impossible to test, because
you always get FrogPrince earlier in the game. This guy wants
you frozen, so if he gets one of your characters, Purify or
HolyHealing right away. He changes his pattern slightly (but
painfully) once his HP gets low enough, healing with CureAll
and then replacing a pewny Icelace with a Deluge, and an
AquaBall with an Iceberg.
Pattern:
Nimble + Vigora + Numble
Attack x6
OmegaBlue
IceLance + AquaBall / Deluge + Iceberg
BlueField / FrogPrince?

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
}BOSS{: TimeDevourer (Fused Dragon)
Get ready for a loooong battle.
Throughout the whole battle she'll be switching innates. She
starts out white, just attacking randomly(also has a non-tech
move that hits everyone, like a Riddel/Guile's ROd weapons).
Once you deal enough damage it'll change to the Earth Dragon's
Backdrop, and change the Feild Effect to (Blue(Yellow(Black) and
move onto the next "phase" of its pattern.
Once you finish off that part, you'll be teleported to the Fire
Dragon's background, and the field effect will change to
(Black(Yellow(Red), and once again move to it's next phase
(that's phase 3, don't get lost yet, we're not even close to
done, heh).
In this Phase he'll switch Volcano and OmegaRed randomly, so I
wouldn't bother trying to catch it from him. Well, after you
beat up Phase 3, move on to Phase 4, Green Dragon's place,
(White(Green(Green). As with Phase 3, her choice of Omega or
Level 6 trappable is random.
Moving onto Phase 5(annoying isn't it?), the field changes to
Water Dragon Isle, (Green(Yellow(Blue). At least there's no
randomness in this part, it's OK for Deluges, if you have a
lot of Revives for those HellBounds...Anyway,
On to Phase 6! Black Dragon's den, field changes
(Red(Black(Red). Some more random stuff this time, he'll
switch back and forth between a single OmegaBlack, and every
once in awhile he'll throw in his little three-element-combo.
Not a good place for BlackHoles, but HolyLights and FreeFalls
are made easy.
Eesh, alright, Phase 7. You're back on Terra Tower again, it is
the Sky Dragon's place after all. Feild moves to
(Green(White(Green). Spectacular Ultranova trapping spot
(although you probably won't need 'em this far through the game
anyway), make sure to steal, or have stolen his HolyHealing
element by now. Yes, this too a long time to decipher...five
hours, just for you...

}BOSS{: TimeDevourer(final)
Well, it doesn't really have any pattern actually. It uses
only Green elements, although the order is random until you do
enough damage to it, then it'll start using elements in a
complicated order depending on what elements you use on it.
Only use this boss for capturing elements if you're insanely
desperate.

}BOSS{: Ozzie
His MaxDefense tech puts him and his buddies to sleep, but you
won't be able to hit them with anything until you've attacked
them a certain number of times, so waiting for it to wear off is
completely useless. If you don't wake him up right away he'll
restart his pattern too, which can get really annoying. Be
careful with summon elements on them too, they all give unique
items, but can be turned into Shiny materials if they're killed
with a summon.

One of Ozzie's crew, same deal, wake him up quickly after

Another friend of Ozzie and Slash, and yes, although he may
appear to be a she, it's a guy. Follow the same guidelines as
Slash for him, and try to steal his rare stolen item, Flea Vest,
it's the only way to get it. TheStare causes confusion, so have
all your characters wear Red Brooches and you'll breeze through

E. Tips and Tricks
:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
There are a couple ways to trick the game into giving you elements and items,
here are a few.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
(1)
- The Best Way to get Trappable Elements. Period. -
- The CusCus Trick -
This is a complete walkthrough of how to get elements from the CusCus, if you
think you can figure it out on your own all you really need to know is that
if you use a non-consumable element on a CusCus, it will use that element
on it's next turn if left alone. If that's too vague, then read on:
This is a great way to stock up on Trappable level 5±3 and 6±2 elements.
First you have to switch the weakest magic users you have into your party,
if you're trying for a level 6±2 element then just pick the weakest character
of that element's color's innate, then give all your characters the worst
possible weapons you have (bone and copper if you didn't sell them), and some
SightScopes and ThirdEyes can help too. Try to get all the character's
stamina values to the same number too (with stamina belts and stamina rings).
Equip the following element sets to your characters:
= Character 1 = Character with bad Strength stat:
Level 1 slot - two Turn elements(TurnRed, TurnYellow, etc.) of the opposite
color of the element you want to trap
- one Turn element of the same color of the element you want to
trap
Level 2 slot - Field Effect element(BlueField, Green Field, etc.)
Level 8 slot - any element(so you can power up to level 8 in battle)
= Character 2 = Character with bad Magic stat(under 30):
Level 1 slot - two Turn elements(TurnRed, TurnYellow, etc.) of the opposite
color of the element you want to trap
- one Turn element of the same color of the element you want to
trap
Level 2 slot - a Level 5±3 element to trap
Level 4 slot - a Level 6±2 element to trap(of their innate)
Level 8 slot - any element(so you can power up to level 8 in battle)
= Character 3 = Character with worst Strength Stat:
Level 1 slot - two Turn elements(TurnRed, TurnYellow, etc.) of the opposite
color of the element you want to trap
- one Turn element of the same color of the element you want to
trap
Level 5 slot - a Level 5±0 trap element to capture Character 2's 5±3 element
Level 6 slot - a Level 6±0 trap element to capture Character 2's 6±2 element
Level 8 slot - any element
Now go to Shadow Forest in Home World and fight any of the CusCus, which are
those monkeys that're walking around. On the second screen of the forest
there's one that is(or was) guarding a treasure chest, if you beat it and
leave the screen and reenter, it always comes back, unlike the rest of the
monsters in the forest. On a regular New Game the male CusCus have 210 hit
points(420 on New Game +), and the females have 190 hit points(380 on
New Game +), so use that info however you want. So, here's how you go about
getting those elements then. If you're trying to trap a blue, red, green,
or yellow element, refer to the first strategy, if you're trying to trap a
white or black element, or, if you don't have any field elements(BlueField,
GreenField, etc), refer to the second strategy.
_Strategy #1 - With Field Elements_
1.Enter a battle with the CusCus. Run away and try again if the battle
starts and there is only one CusCus, if there is a Dodo and/or more than
one CusCus continue on to 2.
2.Have Character 1 get their element grid up to level 2 by hitting one
CusCus as many times as needed with (1) stamina attacks.
3.Have Character 3 get their element grid up to the level of the trap plus
one by hitting the same CusCus as many times as needed with
(1) stamina attacks.
4.Have Character 3 set the trap for the element.
5.Have Character 2 get their element grid up to the level of the element by
hitting that same CusCus with (1) stamina attacks.
6.Kill that same CusCus and defend until all characters have 7 stamina.
7.Have Character 3 use a Turn element of the same color as the element
you're trying to trap on any CusCus.
8.Have Character 1 use a Field Effect element of the opposite color of the
element you're trying to trap.
9.Have Character 3 use the element you're trying to trap on the CusCus that
you used the Turn element on.
10.Defend until at least one CusCus tries to use the element you're trying to
trap, activating the trap and adding one more of that element to your
element inventory.
11.Run away or kill the remaining CusCus
- note: steps 2-5 can be done in any order
_Strategy #2 - Without Field Elements_
1.Enter a battle with the CusCus. Run away and try again if the battle
starts and there is only one CusCus, if there is a Dodo and/or more than
one CusCus continue on to 2.
2.Have Character 2 get their element grid up to the level of the element
you're trying to trap by hitting a CusCus with (1) stamina attacks.
3.Have Character 3 get their element grid up to the level of the trap plus
two by hitting the same CusCus with (1) stamina attacks.
4.Have Character 3 set the trap for the element.
5.Have Character 1 get their element grid up to level 2 by hitting the same
CusCus with (1) stamina attacks.
6.Kill that same CusCus and defend until all characters have 7 stamina.
7.Have Character 3 use a Turn element of the same color as the element
you're trying to trap on any CusCus.
8.Have Character 1 use a Turn element of the opposite color from the element
you're trying to trap on any party member.
9.Have Character 3 use a Turn element of the opposite color from the element
you're trying to trap on any party member.
10.Have Character 1 use a Turn element of the opposite color from the element
you're trying to trap on any party member.
11.Have Character 2 use the element you're trying to trap on the CusCus that
you used the Turn element on.
12.Defend until at least one CusCus tries to use the element you're trying to
trap, activating the trap and adding one more of that element to your
element inventory.
13.Run away or kill the remaining CusCus
- note: steps 2-5 can be done in any order
- another note: steps 8-10 can be done in any order
Another thing you can take into account when doing these is that if you're
trying this at or below star level 48 you probably won't need to do some of
the steps in the strategies. If you're trying for a green element you can
skip pretty much everything and just get one character with enough power to
cast the trap, then use that, than have another character use the element.
The only times these strategies are really needed are if you have a high
magic stat with the caster, or if you're trying to trap a yellow element.
Without doing everything above, even a yellow character with a 19 Magic
stat can annihilate a CusCus with a single Earthquake-4.

- Pip Element Grid Trick #1 -
Pip's element grid are really, really messed up. The programmers obviously
had trouble with the little glitch factory, so you can run into a few
problems with the little evolving squirrel-thing.
The first thing you might notice when you're using him is that on most
occasions his element grid suddenly stops growing. It's completely normal, it
happens to almost everybody. If you save your game after evolving him into
one of his final three forms, and then soft reset, reset, or turn of your
playstation, the glitch goes into effect. In his first form Pip's grid growth
naturally stops after getting two level 6 grid slots, but in all his final
evolutions he gets much better grid growth, going up much like any other
character, but once you trigger the glitch his grid growth reverts back to
the his first form grid growth, leaving him unable to gain any level 7 or 8
slots. There are two ways that I know of to work around the glitch and not
have to worry about not getting grids.
The first one is the most obvious. Just don't turn off or reset the game. If
you don't turn it off the glitch can't catch you, and he'll get all the grids
that he should get in whatever form you choose. Of course, the problem with
this is that the game takes a good forty hours to complete, so you'd be
leaving your playstation on for a long time, which could easily damage the
game, or even the unit itself, so I wouldn't recommend this.
The second was devised by another GameFAQs member, Alex Jackson. He
discovered that, because the turning off of the game was the problem, that
it had to be something with the temporary memory of the game, like how if you
get a game over in some games it'll have the file on your memory card
scrolled down to so you can reload a little faster. With this in mind he
figured out this workaround theory, which completely fixes the problem:
1. Create your file and save before evolving Pip on two different files
2. Proceed through the game and evolve Pip at whatever point you feel like
bothering with him on one of the files. If you don't know how to evolve him
I'd recommend the Tumalu/Pip FAQ.
3. Every time you turn off or reset the game first load the file you kept
from before you evolved Pip, and then evolve him, but don't save, just load
your other file from there(right after the battle ends go to the menu and
choose load).
4. Get at least one more star on your further file every time you do this or
it'll be pretty pointless. Before the 47th star, instead of evolving him
into the form you use on the further file, evolve him into the opposite
form(if you use ArchAngel, choose ArchDevil or vice versa). When you load
from there he'll get the element grid of the form you evolve him into on
the pre-evolved file, and ArchAngel gets some grid slots ArchDevil doesn't
get, and ArchDevil gets some ArchAngel doesn't, so you'll have Pip's
Uber-grid with more grid slots than you can actually get without evolving
him into both forms on different New Game/New Game +'s, or by using this
workaround.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

- Pip's Element Grid Trick #2 -
Another useful thing to know about Pip is that when he evolves the elements
he has equipped aren't removed, even if he switches his innate color and is
wearing innate only elements. Manipulating this little glitch can potentially
lead to having a Pip with up to six different summoning elements and/or six
different other innate only elements, where everyone else is limited to one
color and two summons at most. Equip another party member with some field
elements(bluefield, redfield, etc) and you can pull off tons of summons and
damage in a really short amount of time.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

- Pip's Evolution Trick -
This isn't really much of a trick, just a useful observation. Pip can
actually be transformed into any color in any form, so you can actually have
a Black ArchAngel form, or a White ArchDevil form. All you have to do is use
a whole bunch of the color you want(if it's not one that is required for
that form), and use the one third the amount of each of the colors required
to evolve into that form. It's a bit hard to describe well(I had no idea what
the guy meant when he asked about it on the boards), so here's an example:
Total elements used in normal Pip form:
49 Black elements
41 Green elements
42 White elements
42 Blue elements
result = Black Angel Pip
As long as you use more of that one non-angel-color than you use of any
angel-color, and as long as you use it before you reach the 125 points needed
to evolve into Angel form, you'll get the Black Angel.
So with this discovery you can potentially have a Black, Yellow, or Red
Angel or ArchAngel Pip, or a White, Green, or Blue Devil or ArchDevil Pip,
making the "Pip's Element Grid Trick #2" all the more useful in customizing
the elements on Pip.

- Viper's Level 7 Tech Trick -
For some reason getting General Viper's level 7 tech has a glitch, which can
be easily manipulated to get up to 99 FlagBearer techs, and 99 Dragoon's
Glory accessories. It's a little difficult to explain, but, here goes:
1. Go to the Termina Bar in Home World with General Viper in your party.
2. Talk to the barmaid and she'll let you into a small room leading into the
back room of the bar.
3. Go into the back room and examine the flag with General Viper and you'll get
one FlagBearer tech and one Dragoon's Glory.
4. Go into the small room, but don't go any further, turn around and go back
into the back room and examine where the flag used to be and you'll get one
more FlagBearer tech and one more Dragoon's Glory.
5. Just repeat that last step as many times as you want and you'll have all the
FlagBearers you want, but more importantly, tons of Dragoon's Glory!
I saw this on the message board and tested it out myself, but I don't
remember who posted it, so if the discoverer comes forward I'll gladly put
you into the credits.

- The Duplication Trick -
With this trick you can duplicate almost everything you have, here's what
_won't_ be duplicated:
All summon elements
Mastermune
Einlanzer
Dragoon's Honor
Blue Brooch
All level 7 tech elements
I thinks that's all of them, by the way, these are also the things that
aren't carried over into New Game+ or Continue+
In addition to that, you _lose_ all ALLOCATED BlackHole elements and all
ALLOCATED Field change elements(Blue Field, Green Field, etc). There also
appears to be a glitch with the XX element, when Sky Render was testing
this out after a few dupes he was down to three of them. Sky Render
figured all this out, so hats off to him for that, heh
To do the trick you need at least two save files, one saved after beating
the last boss(stars should be yellow instead of white), and one file saved
on a regular New Game(not New Game+ or Continue+), preferably around 47/48
stars. Here's what you do with those:
1. Load the finished file(with the yellow stars) and choose "Continue+".
This will bring you to another load screen.
2. Load the regular New Game file and you'll find that all the items and
elements you had on the finished file will be added to the items and
elements you had on the regular New Game file.
3. DON'T SAVE, unless you have room to make another file, then you can save,
just as long as you never save over your regular New Game file with a
file you have used the finished file to get/improve.
4. Beat the game with your now improved New Game/Continue+ file.
5. When prompted to save after beating it, save over your old finished file
with this new finished file.
6. Repeat steps one through 5 as many times as you want and you'll get more
and more of the items and elements you had on the New Game file.
Note: The Dreamer's Sarong, Dreamer's Sash, Slasher, Flea Vest, and Ozzie
Pants can only be obtained in a New Game+ file, so you can't duplicate
them, you just have to get more and more of them, the most you'll
ever need is 3, but I have made files that reached 44 of each, heh...
