5 toughest bosses in Chrono Cross: The Radical Dreamers Edition

sportskeeda.com:

Square Enix recently remastered the underrated PS1 JRPG Chrono Cross for modern platforms. It is the second entry in the Chrono series of which the acclaimed Super NES classic, Chrono Trigger, is also a part. The game is about a young boy named Serge traveling to a parallel universe where he had apparently died. Thus, this world-altering journey takes him on an adventure featuring a wide cast of characters, both friendly and hostile.

Since this is a JRPG, combat plays a big role. Gameplay is turn-based, with your usual attack/defense, buff/debuff and elemental attribute focus. As such, there are numerous foes to face, including brutal bosses. In fact, Chrono Cross has several dozen bosses to battle with, some being optional. Many of these baddies will test your patience, your wits or sometimes both.

Here are the strongest bosses in Chrono Cross ranked. Unavoidably, there will be some gameplay spoilers for each character.

A restless spirit and a former Deva of the Acacia Dragons, Garai is a formidable opponent. He can be found in his tomb on the Isle of the Damned in Chrono Cross. Easily one of the tougher challenges in the game, he is also a White element user specializing in physical attacks. He mainly uses single-target techs, the WillBreaker and TripleCut, both of which deal big damage.

The former can even put your character to Sleep. Overall, these powerful attacks can easily down a party member. However, his patterns are predictable, with alternating physical and tech attacks. The key to beating him is Black elements, but since any Black characters in your party (including Lynx) will be weak to his element, a lot of healing and revival supplies should be kept on hand. Defeating him can net players the Holy Dragon Sword
