Introduction Most of the bosses in Xenogears are more-than-average in difficulty. So I've decided to make up my own FAQ stating my Strategies for beating those bosses. Along with a listing of the different deathblows of the characters. I will probably NOT make a section on the Deathblows of the Gears, but it may happen. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- 3. Things you probably know - Gears don't level up! (Seems like it to me...) It looks like the Gears are only more powerful when you outfit them with better equipment, they don't seem to be affected by your character's level. - Learning Deathblows early is the way to go! Take some time to always build up your deatblows, even if you cannot learn it at 100%, because you'll learn it automaticly when you reach the required level. Be aware that the deathblow must be at 100% before you learn it, you won't learn it if it isn't, even if you have the required level. - Gear battles don't help learning deathblows! Battling in Gears can't make your characters learn any Deathblows so try to find a place with small enemies only so you don't get surprised with giant enemies when trying to learn Deathblows. - Stop moving when sensing a battle! When a battle sequence is about to start, your Playstation unit may make a little "reading" noise. STOP MOVING! Because you can't jump because of that, but you can still move. So you might find yourself falling before the platform you were supposed to jump on! - You can't get hyper-deathblows until you've got your limiters removed (at Shevat), they only seemed to appear when I got there. If anyone as proof of the contrary, I'll correct this. - Hyper-Mode is attained on gears depending on the % on the side of the screen. The lower your HP, the greater are the chances of getting into Hyper-mode. Hyper-Mode lets you do 3 massive damage moves before reverting to normal. Some unknown things may influence the % of Hyper-mode. Also, you won't get hyper-mode until you get to a certain level of experience. If I forgot any basic stuff, be sure to e-mail me about it! ----------------------------------------------------------------------- 4.

It will evolve as I advance in my current game. *********************************************************************** FEI FONG WONG Rating: 8/10, average character, good HP and defense, fair attack numbers and biggest selection of deathblows.

Bosses The main section of this FAQ emphasizes the strategies to use agaisnt bosses. Be aware that I recommend to have "optimum equipment" for all boss battles. Exemple: Gears= Best Engine, Frame and Armor. Characters= Best weapon (If possible), best armor and best helmet. Optional accessory also. All damage are average numbers because it may not be exactly if your equipment or level (For character battles) differs from mine. *********************************************************************** RANKAR DRAGON (Character and gear battle) HP, difficulty and moves HP: 1000 Difficulty: Easy Party: Fei & Weltall Tail Swipe : The Rankar Dragon makes a round turn, hitting you with his tail in the process. DAMAGE: 30 to character, 60 to gear Tail Hit : The Rankar Dragon turns around and ground yourself with his tail. DAMAGE: 30 to character, 60 to gear Bad Breath : The Rankar Dragon sends his bad-smelling breath towards you, effectivly damaging your camera. DAMAGE: Accuracy/Evade DOWN Strategy: For the first part, just use your Deathblows and heal using Aquasol (or Inner Healing if you have it) until Citan brings Weltall. When you've got Weltall. Use X button attacks on it anduse your strongest deathblows as your attack level permits it. He should go down pretty easily. *********************************************************************** WYRM (Gear Battle) HP, difficulty and moves HP: 400 Difficulty: Medium Party: Weltall Pecking : The Wyrm pecks your gear with his mouth.

He will counter-attack with Counter-Slurp everytime you hit him. DAMAGE: 60 units of fuel Strategy: He can be troublesome, the best way to get rid of him easily is to always use the Guided Shot ability. Normal moves do only 1 damage and combos take turns to build up. You can pull off Guided Shot every turn however. You get rid of him LONG before you're low on fuel. *********************************************************************** BRIGANDIER (Gear Battle) HP, difficulty and moves HP: N/A Difficulty: Easy Party: Weltall Whip : Brigandier uses a square button moves against you.

Use X button attacks and your strongest Deathblows. He may be able to kill one of your characters if he always attacks him. *********************************************************************** SCHPARIEL & COMPANY (Gear Battles) HP, difficulty and moves HP: Schpariel=4500 Soldiers=400 each Difficulty: Easy Party: Weltall, Brigandier, Heimdal Drill : Schpariel gets up and drills toward a character DAMAGE: 150 Light Beam : Schpariel Sends two beams toward one character, weakening his armor.

For the first battle, kill one WandKnight with 3 or 2 X button attacks and finish the other one by a Ryuten Deathblow. For the second fight, Concentrate on the AegisKnight with X attacks until you can do Ryuten, do it on him. Use Inner Healing to restore your Gear's def if he used Pile Driver on you. Use X attacks on the SwordKnight until he is dead then, unleash a Ryuten Deathblow on the ClawKnight. For the Vierge battle, you should have at least 2500 HP remaining. Use X button attacks and Ryuten as you can, you should have an easy time. Be aware that her first Aerods don't do a single damage. If she doesn't avoid your attacks, you should get rid of her before she uses her Aerods a 3rd time. *********************************************************************** MAIN GUN & 2 SMALL GUNS (Gear battle) HP, difficulty and moves HP: The Main gun has 2000 HP.

Use triangle attack on it until the cover is broken, switch to X button attacks and use Ryuten as you can. Your teammates don't have any deathblows, so use X attacks always with them. NEVER attack him while he's holding one of your teammates, He will counter for 200 damage each time, instead, charge your fuel until he drops them. *********************************************************************** ?????

DAMAGE: Death for target, heals Redrum by the remaining HP of the victim. Swipe : A slash of his claw on a character. DAMAGE: 90 Strategy: Use Renki on Citan and use Suiseii for a counter against his Bloody Rain attack, be sure to cast Suiseii again on any character that you revive, because they lose the effect. You might also want to use Renki to cast Sazanami on all at once. If the boss confuses or poisons you, don't remove it, poison is not too damaging and confuse will wear off soon enough. Use your strongest deathblows (the 4th of 5th on the list) and keep your HP above 100. Be sure to bring at least 10 Zetasols to revive the victims of his Murder ability. Which is the ability you must watch for as he seems to use it often sometimes. This will be a long fight, but don't give up! *********************************************************************** WISEMAN (Character battle) HP, difficulty and moves HP: 1000 Difficulty: Medium Party: Fei Chi Bullets : Wiseman pummels you with 4 Guided Shots. DAMAGE: 40 Leaping Blow : Wiseman leaps in the air and punch yourself in the face and says "What a wimp!". DAMAGE: 80 Strategy: Use Tenbu at every opportunity, he may avoid it, but you will connect many times. Be sure to keep your HP above 120 because he sometimes hits 2 times before you can get a turn. Don't be afraid to use 2 Aquasol S in a row. The fight finishes when Wiseman uses the Raijin deathblow. *********************************************************************** RANKAR R (Gear battle) HP, difficulty and moves HP: 1000 Difficulty: Easy Party: Weltall Bad Breath : The Rankar expels deep green gas towards you.

DAMAGE: 350 Call : The Hetch calls down a big drone in the battle. DAMAGE: None Super-Aerod : The big drone launches a mega beam, causing a massive explosion and massive damage in the process, deadliest ability. DAMAGE: 1400 Strategy: For the battles with the various soldiers, X button attacks and a level 2 deathblow to get rid of them, have Stier focus on 1 opponent and Weltall on the other when battling the 2 WandKnights. The deadliest of the gang is the SwordKnight as he can build up you damage pretty fast (600 is a normal number)! For the battle against the Hetch, use X attacks on the Hetch and level 1 deathblows. Don't ever attack the big drone as you only need to destroy the Hetch to win. Keep Weltall's HP above 1500 by using the Frame Hp30 found with the master key (You DID equip it didn't you?). Stier should not get much damage (The normal Aerods does 30 damage on him) so you will not need to heal him. Hopefully, you come fully healed from the 4 other fights. *********************************************************************** FIS-6 (Gear battle) HP, difficulty and moves HP: 6900 for the FIS-6 and 1000 for the FIS-6Mechanics Difficulty: Hard Party: Weltall (You can't change him), Heimdal (High HP and speed), Stier (High HP, attack and defense) Sword Swipe: The FIS-6 advances on a character doing an horizontal slash with his sword.

DAMAGE: 50 Repairs: A Mechanic repairs some of FIS-6 frame HP when hitten. DAMAGE: Heals 500 HP to FIS-6 Strategy: Before heading into battle, make sure your HP is near full and that you have at least 1000 fuel remaining for each. Start the battle. Use X attacks and the second level 2 deathblow to deal the most damage. When he overheats, use X attacks on the mechanics and square attacks when you attack with Stier, if you don't kill them in 1 hit, they heal the FIS-6 for 500 HP. After dealing with the Mechanics, you should have level 3 deathblows ready, USE them! You should get rid of him. AVOID BOOSTERS at all costs, if you don't you'll probably finish battling with no fuel. Stier is the damage dealer in this fight, Twister D does at least 1500 damage each time. Alternate Strategy (From Gunblade): Every time he shifts up, he increases power, defense, and speed. What he DOESN'T increase, however, is his ether defense! That's right : bring Elly along and pound him with spells! (Preferably with Power Magic equipped). *********************************************************************** GRAHF (Gear battle) HP, difficulty and moves HP: 5000 Difficulty: Medium Party: Weltall, Stier, Vierge Super Guided-Shot: Jumps at the feet of a gear, jumps up and away from it and pummels the gear with 6 fire rays thrown by left and right hand. Charges-up left hand and sends a last fire ray towards you. DAMAGE: Halves target's HP Bare Hands : Grahf does 3 punches, 3 kicks and 1 final punch on a target DAMAGE: 1200 Strategy: He'll start the battle by bringing Stier & Weltall down 1/2 HP. Use X attacks and heal if you get near 1200, has he can kill you. You can't use deathblows against him so just use X attacks, you should do at least 1000 damage per hit (1700 for Stier). He won't attack Vierge for this fight, you'll know why much later... *********************************************************************** HAISHAO (Gear battle) HP, difficulty and moves HP: 2800 Difficulty: Easy Party: Weltall, Brigandier, Vierge Nereid Cyclone: Makes water turn like a whirlpool. DAMAGE: 900 Electric Arm: Launches one of his arms toward a target, sending him to the ground. DAMAGE: 20 Strategy: Use X attacks and level 1 deathblows, very easy to kill. You should not even be near death when the battle finishes. It finishes when the Yggdrasil launches his depth charges on it and Haishao escapes by taking Vierge hostage. *********************************************************************** BLADEGASH (Gear battle) HP, difficulty and moves HP: 3000 Difficulty: Easy Party: Weltall, Brigandier, Vierge Wind Sword: A green whirl appears under her and green rays of light centers on her sword.

DAMAGE: Heals 750 HP to the Haishao. Mirror: Launches his 2 arms against 1 target and lies in wait fo you to make a move... DAMAGE: 1000, Haishao switches to Mirror Mode. Nereid Cyclone: Makes the water turn like a whirlpool, counter atacks using this when attacked when in Mirror Mode. DAMAGE: 1100 Recall: Makes the 2 arms come back and uses the Nereid Cyclone ability. DAMAGE: 1000, Haishao switches to Combat Mode Strategy: Ramsus seems to be more apt to pilot the Haishao than Dominia, considering the damage he is able to deal! Boosters are a necessity for this battle, use them on your first turn. Use X attacks and level 1 deathblows as you can. DON'T attack when he's in Mirror Mode (2 arms are away) because all hits results in misses and he immediatly counter attacks with his Nereid Cyclone, just charge fuel until he resumes combat. His Electric Arm attack hurts a lot, escpecially when he centers the 3 hits on 1 character. Miang's Gear will restore his HP from time to time, enhancing the time you must battle. Keep your HP over 1500 by using Frame HP50 (You did buy some on the Thames AND you equipped them, no?). This is a tough battle. It finishes when Haishao pummels Weltall with many hits, grounding him and Vierge using her Aerods to save him. *********************************************************************** BLOODY (Character battle) HP, difficulty and moves HP: 4000 Difficulty: Hard Party: Billy, Citan, Rico Murder : Grabs a character in his claw and drinks all of his blood, killing the character. DAMAGE: Death for target, heals Bloody by the remaining HP of the victim. Claw Swipe: Deals a quick swipe from his claw. DAMAGE: 40 Strategy: Make sure you DON'T keep your HP full because he seems to ALWAYS use his nasty Murder attack on full character. To counter this, heal with Aquasol S. and keep your HP non-full. Use your Strongest deathblows, (You should have the "square, triangle, X" deathblows by now). His deadliest ability is the Murder attack, if you watch out for it, this battle is much easier. *********************************************************************** GIANT WELS (Gear battle) HP, difficulty and moves HP: 7000 Difficulty: Tricky Party: Renmazuo, Heimdal, Stier Fuel Drain: Hangs on a gear and drain a little part of fuel from it. DAMAGE: 125 Fuel units Claw Hit: Swings his left claw. DAMAGE: 400 Strategy: Seems unwinnable until you see that ONLY Renmazuo's square attack does any damage, any other attack will result into 0 damage, to make the fight quick, use Boosters on Renmazuo only. Charge the other characters and use Renmazuo's square attacks, you should deal 500 damage per hit so it's pretty quick. Relief from Bloody. *********************************************************************** SERAPHITA & TOLONE (Character battle) HP, difficulty and moves HP: Seraphita=2000 Tolone=2500 Difficulty: Medium Party: Citan, Billy, Rico Thermo Dragon: Seraphita uses the Thermo Dragon ability. DAMAGE: Deals 150 to all party members. Anemo Wave: Tolone uses the Anemo Wave ability. DAMAGE: Deals 80 to all party members. Taunt: Seraphita uses her powers to steal some ether from you. DAMAGE: Steals 20% of Max EP from the target. Positron Beam: Tolone removes her right arm and fires a high-focused yellow laser on a character. DAMAGE: 80 Head Dive: Tolone jumps in the air and dives head-first on one character. DAMAGE: 750 Strategy: Knocking Seraphita first is a must becauseshe has a pretty harmful spell that hits all party members. When you knock out Seraphita, Tolone will begin to use her Head Dive, which kills off a character, use Zetasols immediatly because you need all the character you have. Use the "X, X" deathblows you should have by now. Despite thier relative strength, they don't have much HP, but consider it a warning for the fight ahead. Alternate strategy (by Patrick Nguyen): First you must have Elly in your party, and you must must have her equiped with the lunar rod which you should have found in the Thames supply entrance. Have Elly hit Seraphita with it till she sleeps, and have Citan cast renki, then the spell that blocks off wind damage. Get a 28 combo on Tolone, the have Citan cast Renki, then the spell that blocks fire damage. Heal if you need, then have people who still have a 28 combo use it on her. Watch out! if she still lives she will use a powered up spell, then she's almost dead. *********************************************************************** ID (Character battle) HP, difficulty and moves HP: 3000 Difficulty: Hard Party: Citan, Billy, Rico Combo: Id will execute all of Fei's triangle and square moves in a linked series of hits. DAMAGE: 80 Senretsu & Raijin: Id executes those 2 moves in a linked manner. DAMAGE: 120 2x Raijin: Id will execute 2 Raijin deathblows, sometimes on 2 different targets, sometimes on the same. DAMAGE: 180 Dark Matter: Id opens a dark vortex, unleashing strong energy waves on your party. DAMAGE: 90 Strategy: You NEED Billy's Holy Light spell for this fight, it's much easier with it. Id has extreme speed and hits 2 or 3 times before your characters, his moves are quite strong and may need you to heal ASAP. If he concentrates his 2 Raijins on the same character, he will most probably knock him/her out. Don't be afraid to use Billy's Holy Light spell every turn because he's a very damaging opponent. Use your "X, X" deathblows for this fight. He is rather strong, but doesn't have much HP. However, he is able to avoid your deathblows he sure will many times. *********************************************************************** ALKANSHEL (2 Gear battles) HP, difficulty and moves HP: 13000 Difficulty: Medium Party: Renmazuo, Stier, Brigandier Seal: Alkanshel invokes a bright light forming an ankh, the light deeply burns the target.

Electric Punch: Alkanshel sends an electric current through a character with his right hand. DAMAGE: Power DOWN Break Down: Alkanshel explodes in a fiery and damaging blast. DAMAGE: 700 Strategy: For the first battle, concentrate on triangle attacks because everything does 0 damage. In the second phase, use X attacks and level 1 deathblows to destroy it. Heal up using FrameHPs when a character is under 2000 HP because he could kill him. He has a high amount of HP but his atttacks are mostly worthless (Besides his Mass Limit ability). His Electric Punch doesn't seem to do anything special about your fighting performance and he uses it quite often. This could be a long battle, but still easy. *********************************************************************** WYVERN & MIANG'S GEAR (Gear battle) HP, difficulty and moves HP: 5000 Difficulty: Easy Party: Weltall, Renmazuo, Heimdal Tri-Slash: Wyvern slashes his sword 3 times against a target.

DAMAGE: 500 Missile Pod: Seibzehn launches several small missiles against a target. DAMAGE: 700 Dive: Seibzehn goes into the air and dives against a target, knocking him down.

Focus on using a level 1 deathblow with each character before it heals the damage. If you were in good shape from the last part of the Babel Tower, this fight will be a breeze. *********************************************************************** GENERATOR 1 (Gear battle) HP, difficulty and moves HP: Soldiers=300 Littlefoot=500 Difficulty: Hard Party: Heimdal Pistol Shot: A soldier fires his laser pistol at you. DAMAGE: 300 Short Beam: A littlefoot fires a laser beam at you. DAMAGE: 600 Strategy: Use boosters at your first turn and use triangle button moves on each soldier. You must take down those soldiers fast because they pack quite a punch. Use a level 1 deathblow on each littlefoot robot after that. Heimdal is the first choice for this fight. An alternate choice is Vierge if see has her target all spells she'll beable to end the fight quickly. Alternate Strategy (From Squall 352): Bring in Vierge and useher Aerods Special to wipe out the soldiers and dispose of the robots after. This makes this fight a no brainer. *********************************************************************** GENERATOR 2 (Gear battle) HP, difficulty and moves HP: 500 each Difficulty: Easy Party: Stier Swipe: A knight does an horizontal swipe with his sword. DAMAGE: 0 Slash: A knight does a vertical slash with his sword.

DAMAGE: 100 Gel Breath: Citadel turns around and blows a gas at you with it's tail. Very damaging. DAMAGE: 4000 Strategy: Boosters on the first turn is a must, because Citadel got a nasty move, you must dispose of it quickly. Use X attacks and level 1 deathblows. You should not need to heal, but do so if you get near 5000 HP. Once Citadel is down, just dispose of the white knight any way you want. *********************************************************************** GENERATOR 4 (Gear battle) HP, difficulty and moves HP: White Knight=500 Avalanche=5000 Difficulty: Medium Party: Weltall Swipe: A knight does an horizontal swipe with his sword.

DAMAGE: Defense DOWN Strategy: Focus on Avalanche as the knight are only there to bother you. X attacks and level 1 deathblows should do the trick. Don't forget boosters on the first turn. Most of the hits of Avalanche will result in misses against Weltall. After you've disposed of Avalanche, just finish the 2 knights. *********************************************************************** ACHTZEHN (2 Gear battles) HP, difficulty and moves HP: 1rst=3000 2nd=10000 Difficulty: Easy Party: 1rst=Chu-Chu 2nd=Seibzehn Emanation: Achtzehn flies into the air and emanates some energy.

DAMAGE: 1500 Counter-Punch: Hits with his left arm. lways counters with this when not connected. DAMAGE: 500 Strategy: At the beginning, focus on X attacks and power-up your attack level to 3. Since he's connected, he won't be able to counter-attack and he his not damaged enough so his healing is insignificant. Once you,ve got level 3 deathblows, use them! Focus on level 1 deathblows after that. After he connects for the second time, make sure you do more than 1000 damage each time. Heal if you get under 4000 HP. Seibzehn is a must here because the other gears simply don't do much damage (Except the newly found Andvari). He has many HPs so the fight can be long. *********************************************************************** BLADEGASH & MARINEBASHER (Gear battle) HP, difficulty and moves HP: Bladegash=4000 Marinebasher=6000 Difficulty: Medium Party: Weltall, Vierge Wind Sword: Bladegash uses Wind Mode on her sword.

Yet you must end this fight quick as lightning so you're not damaged much in the next battle. Focus X attacks and level 1 deathblows on Bladegash first as she has tremendous speed and hits like crazy. A rod with slow effect equipped on Vierge can mean a heavy relief in this fight. Once she's out of the way, concentrate on Marinebasher. *********************************************************************** SKYGHENE & GRANDGROWL (Gear battle) HP, difficulty and moves HP: Skyghene=5000 Grandgrowl=6000 Difficulty: Medium Party: Andvari, Seibzehn tri-airstike: Skyghene forms a plane and flies through you 3 times, chooses it's target for each hit.

Make sure to get rid of Bladegash as quickly as possible. Heal if you get below 3000. If Vierge is equipped with a slow-effect rod, the effect might well save your life! Once Bladegash is out of the way, quickly dispose of Marinebasher. Use X attacks and level 1 deathblows ONLY. Anything more than that will only make a tough fight harder. I hope you've got at least 3000 units of fuel left, you might need 2 heals. *********************************************************************** SKYGHENE & GRANDGROWL (Gear battle) HP, difficulty and moves HP: Skyghene=5000 Grandgrowl=6000 Difficulty: Medium Party: Andvari, Seibzehn tri-airstike: Skyghene forms a plane and flies through you 3 times, chooses it's target for each hit. DAMAGE: 1000 Fire Circle: Grandgrowl blows a fire circle on a target. DAMAGE: 1000 Knock down: Grandgrowl blows a fire circle on a target, then it jumps through and knocks you down in the process. DAMAGE: 1100 Tornado: Skyghene creates a tornado on one character. DAMAGE: 1100 Restore Frame: The remaining gear restores a part of it's armor when the other one is destroyed. DAMAGE: Heals 2400 HP. Strategy: Just use the same strategy as last time, X attacks along with level 1 deathblows. If you're quick, you might not even need to heal. This fight really relief you from the last fight. Focus on Skyghene first and then Grandgrowl. Enjoy the (well-earned) destruction of the the 2nd gate! (I sure did!) *********************************************************************** CRESCENS (Gear battle) HP, difficulty and moves HP: 14800 Difficulty: Easy Party: Weltall, Heimdal, Andvari Wing Slap: Slaps you with her right wing. DAMAGE: 800 Wing Grab: Grabs you with her wings and smash it on her head. DAMAGE: 1200 Terra Feist: Uses the Terra Feist ability DAMAGE: 2000 Terra Dhaum: Uses the Terra Dhaum. DAMAGE: 2200 Kick Combo: Does a left kick and a slap with her right wing. DAMAGE: 900 Strategy: Use square and triangle attacks, X attacks are avoided most of the time. Don't bring Stier or Seibzehn because they miss most of thier hits. Use level 2 Deathblows to inflict damage. She has some powerful attacks, but nothing really dangerous. Heal if you get under 3000. This fight sould be a cakewalk. *********************************************************************** GRAHF & EXECUTIONER (Character battle) HP, difficulty and moves HP: G=7000 E=5000 Difficulty: Medium Party: Fei, Billy, Citan Fukei Variant: Grahf does a variant of the Fukei deathblow. DAMAGE: 100 Dark Dimension: Executioner invokes a dark sphere around your characters. DAMAGE: 70 each character. Strategy: Use your strongest Hyper-deathblows on Executioner first as she as the least HP. She also has some pretty strong spells that hits all your characters. Grahf is no big worry just dispatch him after Executioner. If you have all Hyper-Deathblows, this fight is easy. *********************************************************************** VENDETTA (Gear battle) HP, difficulty and moves HP: 13000 Difficulty: Easy Party: Weltall II Tri-Slash: Slashes 3 times at you. DAMAGE: 150 each, 500 in total. Strategy: You begin with System Id on so just use your strongest Hyper- Deathblows and be done with it. After 3 hits he should go down. Storyline battle more than anything else. *********************************************************************** FT. HURRICANE (Gear battle) HP, difficulty and moves HP: 16000 Difficulty: Easy Party: Yggdrasil IV Spike Spin: Spins its numerous spikes at you. DAMAGE: 150 Charges: Charges up its main cannon. DAMAGE: N/A Main Beam Cannon: Fires its main cannon. DAMAGE: 300 Saucer: Froms a saucer and spins to hit you. DAMAGE: 150 Spike send: Dispatches its spikes from the central unit to hit you. DAMAGE: 150 Strategy: You're near invincible for this fight. Use X attacks until it goes down. Another storyline battle for the 2nd Disc, it has lots of them! *********************************************************************** SUFAL MASS & 4 SUFALS (Character battle) HP, difficulty and moves HP: SM=5000 S=1500 Difficulty: Medium Party: Fei, Citan, Elly Arm Drain: A Sufal uses its arm to drain energy from a character. DAMAGE: 120, heals the Sufal also. Beam Arm: The Sufal Mass fires a bunch of lights from his right arm DAMAGE: 1 Ice Beams: The Sufal Mass sends many ice beams across the screen. DAMAGE: 60 to each character. Arm Drain: the Sufal Mass drains energy from your characters with its right arm. DAMAGE: Drains all the HP of the target and heals the Sufal Mass. Strategy: Use Hyper-deathblows to dispatch 3 of the 4 Sufals, if you kill all 4 the Sufal Mass will begin using Arm Drain and you DON'T want that to happen. Also note that ether-based hyper-deathblows will heal the Sufal Mass. Use Fei's Kokei hyper-deathblow and focus on using the X,X deathblows with the other characters. He doesn't have much Hp so it's a relatively easy fight (unless you kill all the Sufals). *********************************************************************** ELEMENTS GIRLS (Character battle) HP, difficulty and moves HP: D=5000 K=3000 S=2000 T=3000 Difficulty: Medium Party: Fei, Citan, Bart Slash: Dominia slashes through a character. DAMAGE: 50 Drain: Seraphita drains the ether of a character. DAMAGE: Drains all EP from a character. Tornado: Tolone creates a tornado on the party. DAMAGE: 60 to each character. Jumping Slash: Dominia jumps in the air and hits a character with her sword. DAMAGE: 50 Dash Punch: Seraphita dashes and punches through a character. DAMAGE: 30 Strategy: Never use ether-based hyper-deathblows as they heal the elements. Use Fei's Kokei hyper-deathblow to deal massive damage. Focus on X, X deathblows with other characters. Dispatch Kelvena first as she heals them. Seraphita and Tolone (Choose for yourself) are the next. Dominia last becasue she has the highest HP. Tip (From Flamin' Bob): Actually, you CAN use hyper-deathblows, as long as you take note of the respective elements for each girl. Here are thier elements: Kelvena= WATER weakness= Fire Dominia= EARTH weakness= Wind Seraphita= FIRE weakness= Water Tolone= WIND weakness= Earth *********************************************************************** G ELEMENTS (Gear battle) HP, difficulty and moves HP: 46000 Difficulty: Medium Party: Weltall II, Fenrir, Andvari Call Kishin Sword: The Kishin Sword appears for use. DAMAGE: N/A Tolone's Power: Charges up with wind ether. DAMAGE: Enable the use of wind attacks. Slash: Slashes her sword at a character. DAMAGE: 2200 Stop Ether Engine: Desactivates the current ether attacks. DAMAGE: N/A Tornado: Creates a tornado 2 times, on chosen targets. DAMAGE: 300 each Seraphita's Power: Charges up with fire ether. DAMAGE: Enable use of fire attacks. Tri-slash: Slashes 3 times at one character. DAMAGE: 1500 Dominia's Power: Charges up with earth ether. DAMAGE: nable use of earth attacks. Use Kishin Sword: Unleashes the true power of the Kishin Sword in a powerful slash. DAMAGE: 8000 Strategy: Use X attacks and level 1 deathblows with the 2 auxiliary characters. With Weltall, use System Id and your strongest hyper-deathblow 3 times. Use System Id another time and your hyper deathblows. Should be gone after that. This boss is many times harder if you don't use System Id, but why not? If you're lucky, you won't even need to heal! Note that you should heal if you get near 8000 because she has an attack that does 8000 HP of damage. *********************************************************************** HAMMER (Gear battle) HP, difficulty and moves HP: 50000 Difficulty: Easy or Medium Party: Weltall II, Fenrir, Vierge Self-modification: Changes the shape of the gear. DAMAGE: Enables new types of attacks. Sparks: Hits a character with sparks of light. DAMAGE: 0 Tail Turn: Turns his tail around, knocking the party down. DAMAGE: 0 each Heavy Fire: Fires a serie of shots from his shoulder guns. DAMAGE: Def DOWN Self-Destruct Sequence: Remains idle and begins to glow red. DAMAGE: N/A Self-Destruct: The gear explodes in a fiery (and damaging) blast. DAMAGE: 15000 each. Strategy: The difficulty here depends if you want the rare item or not, if youdon't want it, run away when he starts flashing red. The strategy is to use System Id with Weltall II and levle 2 deathblows with the other 2. Be aware that he has a whooping 50000 HP and usually starts flashing when he has 20000 HP remaining. He has 2 attacks per turn, but they all do 0 damage unless he lowered your defense. To get the item, make sure everybody is near Hyper-Mode and on boosters before he starts flashing (Using the 9999 Aerods trick really helps to beat him). Let loose before he explodes because you only have 1 turn to do so (Maybe 2 with boosters). The item he gives will let you get rare items from battles more often, to get it, you must beat him before he explodes, not just survive the blast. *********************************************************************** DEUS (Gear battle) HP, difficulty and moves HP: 40000 Difficulty: Tricky Party: Weltall II, Fenrir, Omnigear Renmazuo Deep Freeze: Sends icy energy across the screen, hurting everyone including him. DAMAGE: Halves HP of party and enemies alike. Explodes Space: A ring of space energy surrounds a character and explodes, burning him deeply. DAMAGE: 5000 Self-Healing: Heals up physical damage at a tremendous rate. DAMAGE: Heals 16000 HP. Slap: Slashes his claw at a character DAMAGE: 1500 Last Resort Blow: Before dying, Deus slaps a character. DAMAGE: Brings down the HP of the target to 1. Strategy: The trick here is to remain idle (Charge up your characters) until his Deep Freeze attack deals 5000 damage to Deus, use System Id on Weltall II and use your strongest hyper-deathblow to kill him. If your attack doesn't kill him, he'll heal for 16000 HP. It is still possible to beat him even if he heals up, but it adds a difficulty. Be sure to keep your characters over 5000 Hp so they don't get killed (So they can get all the EXP Deus gives when beaten). *********************************************************************** ALPHA WELTALL (Gear battle) HP, difficulty and moves HP: N/A Difficulty: IMPOSSIBLE! Party: Weltall II, Omnigear Renmazuo Tri-hits: Right punch, left punch, left kick. All hits are massive damage- dealers DAMAGE: 30000 total damage. Feet Dance: Hits a knocked down character with his feet several times. DAMAGE: 9999 Chi Bombardment: Hits a character with several fireballs. DAMAGE: 5000 Strategy: Storyline battle again, just stand there until he beats the crap out of you. Most of his attacks does unbelievable damage anyway... *********************************************************************** AMPHYSVENA (Gear battle) HP, difficulty and moves HP: 30000 Difficulty: Very Hard Party: Weltall II, Fenrir, Seibzehn Wave #3 Demiser: Sends black energy that weakens all gears. DAMAGE: Bring all party members's HP to 1. Energy Circle: Sends a wave of energy at a character. DAMAGE: 1200 Blaze Pose: Concentrates energy. DAMAGE: Seems to only prevent his attacks. Implosion: Energy comes from inside a character. DAMAGE: Defense or Accuracy/Evade or Power DOWN. Resume Battle: Leaves Blaze Pose mode. DAMAGE: Re-enables attacks. Strategy: DON'T USE BOOSTERS!!! With that said, know that you msut avoid everything that consumes fuel (Except FrameHPs) because you'll need it. He'll begin with Wave #3, beringing all characters HP down to 1. The trick is to heal 2 characters and leaves the other one down at 1 HP so it prevents him from doing a second Wave #3 in the battle! Use X attacks & level 1 deathblows to kill him. Even if he kills the weak character, he won't do Wave #3 and the weak character will be back for the next fight with 1000 and more HP. You should endthis battle with the 2 healed characters with more than 10000 HPs. Also, don't use system Id, keep it for the next fight. *********************************************************************** OPIOMORPH (Gear battle) HP, difficulty and moves HP: 25000 Difficulty: Near IMPOSSIBLE!!!! Party: Weltall II, Fenrir, Seibzehn Power Up: Upgrades her fighting power when attacked. DAMAGE: Defense & Ether Attack UP Wave #4 Devastator: Unleashes massive massive energy waves that damages your characters. DAMAGE: Depends on her Ether Attack number. Re-boot: Fighting power regains normal level. DAMAGE: Defense & Ether Attack return to normal. Desperation: Rises power everytime something is done. DAMAGE: Defense & Ether Attack UP Strategy: Begin by healing the character that you kept weak for the last battle. Use triangle attacks with the 2 characters (Except Weltall) until she unleashes her first Wave #4. Should do 4000 damage to all party members. Your 2 characters should be at attack level 2 or 3. Use System Id on Weltall II and unleash the 2 best deathblows of the other 2 characters. Mix Weltall II's hyper-deathblows with X attacks and level 1 deathblows from the other 2 characters. She will probably do her Wave #4 a second time, doing 5000 to all. You'll beat her with nearly all characters at 2000 Hp remaining. Alternate Strategy (By Volker Knoppik): When the battle starts don't attack her, just charge your fuel (you should be a little low because of the fight before), her WAVE#4 won't damage you and everytime she does this, her def. and ether atk. goes down. Wait for about 3 rounds, then switch to System ID with Weltall II and attack her, but only with Weltall II! Her WAVE#4 will now inflict a little damage to your Gears. Max is 1000 HP after the 3rd infinite level attack. When Weltall II switches back to normal mode, just charge up for about 3 rounds and then do the same again. She should die after the 5th infinite attack. *********************************************************************** ID'S XENOGEARS (Gear battle) HP, difficulty and moves HP: 30000 Difficulty: Medium Party: Fenrir, Seibzehn, Omnigear Renmazuo Body Blow: Hurls himself agaisnt a character. DAMAGE: 1000, progressivly gets more powerful. 3x Flaming Hell: Uses the Flmaing Hell ability 3 times on a knocked down character. DAMAGE: 1000 Strategy: His Body Blow attacks gets more and more powerful as the battle advances, he has quick speed so he usually hits 2 timesbefore characters like Seibzehn. Use X attacks and level 1 deathblows. There should not even be a need to heal. *********************************************************************** TRUE WELTALL (Gear battle) HP, difficulty and moves HP: 15000 Difficulty: Medium Party: Xenogears Feet Dance: Deals several piercing blows with his feet. DAMAGE: 300 Chi Bombardement: Throws several fireballs at you. DAMAGE: 1500 3x Combo: 2 punches followed by an uppercut. DAMAGE: 1000 Strategy: Use X attacks and level 2 deathblows to kill him easy. He deals very manageable damage and you should not even need to heal becasue of his low HP. I consider this one as a storyline battle. However, you should heal if you get in the 3000 HP. *********************************************************************** METATRON (Gear battle) HP, difficulty and moves HP: 45000 Difficulty: Very Hard Party: Andvari, Fenrir, Crescens Earthly Anointment: Red pillars comes from under the party. DAMAGE: 5000 each character. Energy Shot: Fires a powerful shot of energy at a character. DAMAGE: 4500 Machine Gun: Fires multiple shots at a character. DAMAGE: 1000 7x Energy Leak: Energy hits a character from the inside, does that for a total of 7 random hits. DAMAGE: 500 each hit. Sound Wave: Damages an armor by using high-pitched sound. DAMAGE: Defense DOWN. Strategy: Hardest of the 4 support units of Deus. I highly suggest you kill this one first (If you skip through the dialogue, it's the one nearest the blue Memory Cube). Use X attacks and level 1 deathblows, don't go over that because it will take too much time. Countering a Sound Wave attack with Fenrir's Sazanami is a good idea since his 7x Energy Leak will hit like crazy on weakened characters. Heal if you get at 5000 HP. Try to keep your characters in shape for another battle. *********************************************************************** SUNDEL (Gear battle) HP, difficulty and moves HP: 20000 Difficulty: Medium Party: Andvari, Fenrir, Crescens Targeting: Set his systems on a particuliar character. DAMAGE: Always counter-attacks on targeted character. Stone Turn: Sends his middle stones away to hit the party. DAMAGE: 1000 each character. Drill: Drills at a character DAMAGE: 600 Strategy: You should beat him with the same characters you've beaten Metatron with. After each hit, he'll counter-attack against the targeted character or the entire party. His hits are nothing and he has really low defense. This is the easiest of the four and the second one after Metatron (From right to left). *********************************************************************** MARLUTE (Gear battle) HP, difficulty and moves HP: 55000 Difficulty: Very Hard Party: Andvari, Fenrir, Chu-Chu Fuel Drain: Sucks fuel from your party. DAMAGE: 400 fuel units each character. Image Move: Move his image body back andhits with the top point of himself. DAMAGE: 700 Bubble Fuel: Hits the party by released the accumulated fuel. DAMAGE: Depends on total quantity of stolen fuel, seen damage from 4000 to 10000. Probably 1/2 of your HP. Strategy: A good note on this one: NEVER BRING FULL CHARACTERS!! HE'll annihilate them by sucking up all thier fueland doing his Bubble Fuel attack. Instead, bring 2 already low on fuel characters and Chu-Chu (She doesn't use fuel). Use square attacks with the 2 gears and X attacks with Chu-Chu. He'll stop doing his Fuel Drain spell when all gears are at near 100 fuel units. When a gear has no fuel, charge and resume attack. You can't do any deathblows on this one has he counts as a character sized enemy (?????), so all characters should be at attack level 3 and charge up 90 units of fuel each time. Tip (From Hannes Doll): Equip the characters before this fight with Tank Guard (Bought at the newest gear shops) to stop the fuel drain ability. That way this battle is a real joke! *********************************************************************** HARLUTE (Gear battle) HP, difficulty and moves HP: 45000 Difficulty: Very Hard Party: Chu-Chu, Omnigear Renmazuo, Crescens Space-Time: Freezes 2 characters and only 1 character can still act in the battle. DAMAGE: The target is the only character that can still move. Ground Break: Multiple explosions comes from under the party. DAMAGE: 6000 each character. Heavenly Anointment: Several blue lasers hit the same target. DAMAGE: SLOW effect. Strategy: If you're able to, beat this one as the second in the 4.It's the one right before Metatron, this will make it much easier. If you beat it last, I hope you've kept 4 characters full. Put one in your party and use another character (In a good shape) and Chu-Chu. Use X attacks and level 1 deathblows. He his hard because of his Space-Time move that can last quite a while and he still damages you while doing this. If he doesn't centers on paralyzing your full character, you should beat him. Use Chu-Chu Forest Dance to heal if needed (It doesn't heal much but it's better than nothing). *********************************************************************** DEUS (Gear battle) HP, difficulty and moves HP: 45000 Difficulty: Very Hard Party: Xenogears, Seibzehn, Stier Angel dispatch: Sends 2 angel gears away from him. DAMAGE: Enables counter-attack. Deus' Thunderbolt: 2 electrical fields forms over and under the party. Electrical current passes on your party between the 2 fields and a couple of red balls of energy go into the center of the electric current. DAMAGE: 6500 each character. Angel Counter: The 2 dispatched angels attack the party with laser beams. DAMAGE: 300 each hit. Cosmic Crusher: The screen canges to space background and a ball of space energy explodes on a character. DAMAGE: 6000 Ultimate Break: See Deus destroy the universe!! DAMAGE: 10000 each character (ouch!) Machine Guns: Machine guns fire multiple bright bullets with no noticeable effect. DAMAGE: Cause Confuse effect sometimes. High Beam: Fires a powerful laser beam at a character. DAMAGE: 4000 Strategy: If you have the armor from Big Joe's shop, the counter-attacks will do 300 each hit instead of near 1000! It's a good idea to equip those character with that equipement before heading for the final boss. The best way to annihilate him is to use X attacks and power up to hyper-mode. Otherwise, you'll suffer too much damage and may end up being killed or killing him in a very weak form (Not that it matters, but you wouldn't want to go through the 4 other bosses again, heh?). After killing him, you'll have finished the game (Even if a boss is remaining). Tip (From RPGod): Bring Chu-Chu along and if he's strong enough, he should suffer 0 damage per counter-attack from Deus and approximativly 1500 damage from his Ultimate Break. The battle is real joke with him.... *********************************************************************** UROBOLUS (Gear battle) HP, difficulty and moves HP: 50000 Difficulty: A joke compared to Deus. Party: Xenogears Multi-Hit: Hits you with her claws multiple times. DAMAGE: 300 Electric Warp: Warps you with her tailand sends an electric current through you before letting you down. DAMAGE: 500 Fire Suplex: Grabs you and slams you hard in the ground, unleashing a strong explosion. DAMAGE: 6000 Strategy: You begin with full HP and Fuel, 99% probability of shifting in Hyper- mode. Use X attacks until you get in Hyper-Mode. Hammer at her with Hyper- Deathblows, finish her with X attacks and level 1 deathblows. You should not have any trouble getting past this one.
