Chrono Cross - Boss Fight #43 - FATE

[DantonTheWerewolf]

I always used Grobyc and Kid. I used Pip when I couldn't use Kid.

[broyalwithcheese]

mitsuda is trippin

[nalrashido]

Doesn't Mastermune have a High Crit Chance?

[blazingemperor]

when you used flying arrow what was behind serge. when i use it i see a copy of serge behind serge

[DantonTheWerewolf]

@blazingemperor Different weapons change how he looks in the background.

[1ittleAsian]

ive been trying to turn pip into like a different type but it jus doesnt work, i look it up how to n i tried it but it doesnt work for some reason. since i need something to visualize, could u please make a video of how u chance pip cuz i look over youtube and i cant find much only after wen he change into something else. thank you

[AliasXBeoulve]

How are people like 'ew, pip' Pip was the SHIT.

He's adorable too.

[tataso]

the grapics like a ps2 hahaha just amazing

[usuariofuturista]

The amazing thing is that no game nowdays have better graphics than this.

Look at the beauty in FATE face. Is perfect. Just perfect.

Things are realistic and badass nowdays... but the artistic beauty is *almost* gone.

[chelseahwang]

Wow didn't expect it!

Pip actually is the one that's ending the battle!

Bravo Pip! and ignore those people who's complaining about Pip!

You're doing a great job!

[fatherjon908]

ive never seen that saints element before. that shit is so badass!

[SwordOfPersona]

Lol, Asari FATE.

[evandroferreiradanie]

Last time I played, I just used Vigora+Strengthen+Mastermune and owned Fate

[mrsandman500]

i loved that area i think it was dead sea or something but anyways i liked that area cause of some of the enemys you faced

[capfudge]

Why do you always use pip? Pip sucks.

[Cyril86]

@capfudge That's just, like, your opinion, man.

[capfudge]

@Cyril86 But why do you like to use him?

[Cyril86]

@capfudge Because i like him.

Games aren't all about the statistically best characters ya know.

[capfudge]

@Cyril86 I actually use every character at some point or other during the game, but that's because I'm an obsessive compulsive completist.

[Sephiroth174]

@capfudge Yup you should pick characters you love characters whom u feel something for. I am 22 now i will say without question that the characters and story and lessons from Chrono Cross made me into the person i am today. With that said Chrono Cross was more than some Data on a C.D. for me.

[alexboivin]

LOL why are people whining about the best characters and team in a game where you can have almost 100 different guys lol its just ridiculous.And i dont think the creator did a "Best" team because they did that much characters they probably want people to take their own team and not always rely on a FAQ like alot of people do.

[wtf12342345]

how can serge takes up all the black elements i thought he was white element

[tommomann585]

@wtf12342345 If your talking about serge absorbing the black damage, it is from the black plate.

[ricex210]

Grobyc's Strongarm makes me squee.

[NiNtenBricK]

It looks like a robotic asari

[Yamaneko81]

They did a very nice job with The Fate's textures he looks really well in the game almost like ps2 graphics.

[GamingCraving]

This boss scared the crap out of me as a little kid! :((

[Silfalas]

I like the music they put for this battle. Instead of a music based on chorus and all that it is an encouraging piece. Like: Here we are, Radical dreamers! It is our chance to overthrow Fate!

[holymymoly]

what the fuck! pip with the killing move

[Akutare]

Nice, a Pip fan. He's too adorble...

Your team was kinda like mine when I played.

[SaintEianS]

I like pip. One of the hardest things for me in the game is having to choose between characters. I'm not like everybody else, I will litterally only use 3 characters throughout the entire game :)

P.s. Grobyc is lame :P

[Lishy1]

The music in this fight rules.

I'm glad that they had such a jazzy song instead of a cliche religious theme with Choirs and Church Organs, considering the circumstances of the game.

Come to think of it, pretty much everything but the character development was awesome. FATE looks like a boss straight from a ps2 game! It really makes you wonder how they fucked up character development so much when this game was so high budget. Only about 12 of the 44 characters were important =/

[Yamaneko81]

@Lishy1 Hard to tell since the guy that did the character design did a very good job in other games/animes go watch The Record of Loddoss war or the movie of Escaflowne.

[nightfire789]

theres a reason u got 10000 people to choose from

[downgrade101]

wait... isn't the "Goddess of Fate" supposed to be, you know, female?

[icarolfmuniz]

At the end of the battle I expected to resume the game. =D

[time2torturetom]

You used Pip? BEAUTY! I love Pip so much. But ever since I got Grobyc and Norris, it's always been them.

Also, this boss creeps me out. Just the half-torso thing goin' on.

[neonvega]

hey Inusmellyalater why dont you lick pibs asshole if you dont like his character setup fuck you and begone

[alfredoDota]

diminish is THE element lol

[alfredoDota]

diminish is THE element lol

[alfredoDota]

diminish is THE element lol

[Railkune]

Why did you have Pip there. Was it required?

[doamaster08]

If you had Fargo in your party you could have stolen a Holy Healing element witch is pretty damn good.

[Lippy802]

Miguel was the only boss that gave me any real Trouble. Dario was just using his damn gameshark thats why he was such a pain in the ass :D

[algiasphere]

I like using Leah, she reminds me of Ayla :P

[JanusHoW]

Eagle Eye on Serge would have sped things up so much.

[dl2agon]

I always liked Serge, Glenn and Orhla..

[ir4p3y0u]

I used Serge Gleen and Grobyc on this battle. Gleen and Serge X-Strike did 9999 but i used gleen as soon as i got him so his stats where high.

[CinnabonChan]

Wait.... Fate is Male?

[dawnninjawolf]

My favorite team is still, Serge, Riddel and Grobyc!

[Zodiarkz]

It's starting to feel like I'm the only one who uses Serge, Zoah, and Draggy as my team... oh well they're my faves lol.

[hitome997]

loved how you put the black plate on Serge makes the battle a lot easier.

[MattiasXL]

You killed Fate! Now our futures are in our own hands!

[adrenaline220]

@MattiasXL my future is to be level 99 at warrock..

[PTp1ranha]

That FATE's kinda creeping me out.

[TreMejia]

Why are some people hating on his choice of characters?

This is HIS video, and his walkthrough, he has the right to choose any character he wishes. Don't ruin this video with your opinions please.

[arsanderesteban]

omg. his video makes me wanna play the game again. but i already used the new game+ feature.....3 times....

[AnimeWarrior00]

supriseingly for me this fight was pretty easy

[MissJennaGan]

@BradyBlows4Life

OMG SPOILER ALERT!!

But this is my favorite RPG ever. For serious. I love how you have all the boss fights up, this makes me want to play!

[Yamaneko81]

This game should have an mmorpg version the world and the history is hugee!

[bamapagedesign]

I always found that a 1, 2, 3 attack, element combo works the best.

[CMproductions1161]

Hardest boss in the whole game. It creeped me out, too.

[Yuffie92]

fighting FATE was funny (^_^) and more funny is that pip can change colors xD my pip was purple with big horns xD

[DaviS316RotteN]

i love this game!!!1

[maninderkhangura]

me too.

my favourite

[negativepull]

i have been playing this game the past few weeks for the first time and when it said insert disc 2 i couldn't find it :( i can't even find the case for the game

[Bryantzerox]

You can buy it on amazon pretty cheap, if you need to get it again.

[negativepull]

Found it,it was in my garage :P

[JmanRBS]

Hey I recently fought FATE a few days ago, pretty cool fight. Do you auto allocate your elements Cyril or do you place them yourself?

[InfernoSorcerer87]

Draggy, Glenn, Serge FTW

[Cyril86]

Yeah as i've stated multiple times, i only use the characters i like to use.

I don't choose my characters based on their combat performance.

[Inusmellyalater]

i guess thats a way to make it even more fun than it already is ( even though its the best game since the original donkey kong) but i like to completely own all the fights. like this morning, i fought criosphinx without one death on my side. we also used genie on him 3 different times, and now im up to three sets of sunglasses, so my whole party just wipes the floor with all the enemies

[Bryantzerox]

I prefer to have a challenge.

[maninderkhangura]

Yeah go for different and new combinations. dat makes beeter

[LivingDraw]

@Cyril86 i do the same as you.. i use serge zoah and fargo or glenn those are kikn ass

[miseryclaimer]

ohh hey i remember this boss,i was 8 at the and i still remember the pain it brought to me ):

[KarenElhyam]

Auuuugh this boss. Most of this game is so easy, and then there are those three or four fights that are utter torture. Anyway, thanks for the upload!

[cickmore12]

is that Lynx

[bahamuta]

Bob, is that you?

[cickmore12]

no its not

[NeoCrimson17]

Pip can actually evolve into different forms. LOL! Fluffy little critter. Devil Pip!!

[Cyril86]

There are actually three final forms.

[B353RK]

@Cyril86 devil/angel and which???>!!!!

[Deterdalek2]

@Cyril86 can he turn into broly?

[m84hr3muk]

Sorry for triple post, I could do that much damage because I did the Viper n' the Flag Glitch, where Viper still spoke with in front of the wall, even though he had already picked the flag, see gamefaqs for more infos.

With that glitch I equipped as much Dragoon's Glory as possible to all of party.

[m84hr3muk]

Nevermind, you already got Mastermune XD

[Cyril86]

Heh didn't notice that you posted this.

[m84hr3muk]

Man you haven't gotten the Mastermune, Cyril86? I played Cross reaaaaaly easily mainly because my party's Serge, Kid, and Glenn, with Serge got Mastermune, and Glenn got the dual-Einlanzer...and...Dragon God in a single flinch...X-Strike does 1800 damage...XD

[Cyril86]

Of course i have the Mastermune.

[Bateleur5]

Wow, it's been over 6 years since I've last played this game, and I CLEARLY remember this boss as being nearly impossible.

[ashrakin]

That thing gave me a night mare wheni was a kid, when i first fought it i lost, and it was midnight and i was tired... theni had a bad dream of him forming in mmy room and killing me by beating me down

[speedcomeback]

no pasa nada el mejor el equipo es

FARGO , VIPER, SERGE

[Landonio1]

Should've used a white element when the Field Effect was all-white. Would've been over.

[Dandan141]

they dont make these rpg anymore...

[wackyluke444]

nooo they doont...

[refuckulate420]

its a shame no good rpgs this gen. I hope FF13changes that.

[wackyluke444]

we can only hope

[Bamshu]

Obviously you haven't played Valkyria Chronicles.

[refuckulate420]

Yea I have, its one of very few. so fuck off you fucking dick head.

[Daddysmonsters]

You are the one being a dick pal. He was giving you a heads up on a good game. Instead of playing chronicles perhaps you should have been reading a book on proper etiquette

[refuckulate420]

Go fuck your mom you lousy piece of shit.

[NoAsking]

Thats entirely uncalled for. What the hells your problem?

[Heritor89]

hey nice =D

i just did this fight yesterday (in my 1st playthrough ever) with Serge, Riddel and Draggy. needed a second try though, cuz i was unprepared and therefore Riddel got overkilled by DarkEnergy everytime =S

well, after giving her Blackplate, it was pure paybacktime =P

[ShootAndSpin]

Wooooooooah! Wait a minute......

When you used "Flying Arrow" how did you get the Masamune guy from Chrono Trigger to be behind you? When I use it it just shows 2 versions of Serge. :(

[Cyril86]

You have to have the Mastermune equipped.

[ShootAndSpin]

Ahhh, okay. Thanks. I skipped the Dario/Riddel side quest. :\

[EnconXV]

This boss is great, one of the hardest and funniest to battle in my opinion. The only thin that pissed me off about this boss is the song. It just doesn't fit, it doesn't give me that sensation of being fighting an evil supercomputer.

[muckle111]

how u get groby

[QuanTzuBlueDragon]

U have to fight him after u beat Hell Orcha and rescue Riddel.

[badzx161616]

how do you get Black Plate armor?

[shiori75]

steal all of your plates from the dragons you face on the islands you go to.... for me the green dragon was the hardest to steal

oh and element traps are good!

[NicV22]

I love the Saints White Innate Special. They kick ass and heal you at the same time.

[JingKyo]

i saw my brother fight this thing before, wtf is it?

[wackyluke444]

Fate is a boss in chrono cross that is supposed to be fate in the future. (S)he's a giant computer that makes every choice for you.

[UsagiWolf]

Sorry, I have one more question - why have you been using Pip for all these bosses? I don't want to sound rude, but I used to use Pip all the time, and then I realized that he really isn't that nice of a party member. His attacks are much less than fatal, and he seems to not be very much use.

[Cyril86]

I use Pip obviously because he's one of my favorite characters.

It's the only reason.

[UsagiWolf]

Are the plates what are healing Serge instead of hurting him when the boss attacks?

[Cyril86]

Plates?

You mean the Black Plate armor?

If so then yes.

It makes the wearer get healed from black element attacks.

[CarbonWyvern]

Squaresoft needs to stop making so many damn remakes, and make a another Chrono game. And if they do, it better not be a shitty battle system.

[CheatMasterK]

Aww, Angel Pip is CUTE! X3

[StugLife]

Black Plate on Serge is KEY.

[billie022]

Hi, qhat item did u equip in serge to cure him when he gets hit by black elements? I played CC about 35096874368763907 times (hehe) and I don't know or remember how 2 do that.

[yurikgaara]

i dont like this guy it was really hard for me to defeat XD

and that dragon god too it was really hard and

[Dsupreme1]

Kinda looks like the Dark Cloud from Final Fantasy 3 (for the DS).

[wendayy]

this boss freaks me out

[gorboy]

This game is excellent. Vastly superior to most games on the FF series. Its only problem is that it was way too easy. I only lost once to Dark Serge and twice to Garai. That's it. I did not lose any other fight in the game.

[Volt46]

Did you lose to Dario?

[gorboy]

Why the hell was I poor-commented?

No, I did not lose to Dario. But that was only because I knew his counterattack programming so I cheated a little by using red elements a lot.

[hellothereimasian]

yep dario uses the element opposite to what you use

[ThyFadingDirge]

I agree. This game is very easy. I haven't lost to anyone yet. The only boss that has ever killed me by the end of the battle was Criosphynx, and only then because I did it at 36 stars without the yellow plate, only one person died anyway.

Took half an hour to win.

[CarbonWyvern]

You actually beat Miguel on your first try? Not that I don't believe you, he was just a really hard boss on my first time through the game.

[ThyFadingDirge]

If you come prepared and know what to do, there are no really hard bosses in this game.

If I told you some of the things I've accomplished, you probably wouldn't believe me either.

[algiasphere]

That's true, first time I played this game plenty of bosses kicked my ass: Garai, Miguel, Dario, FATE, just to name a few. Once you learn their attack patterns, and come prepared to the battles, they're not hard at all.

[HarmfulDesign]

Garai was tough because of WillBreaker, Miguel was tough because of HolyDragSword, and Dario was tough because of Awesomeness. =p

[hellothereimasian]

Belthasars super computer got a virus thats why it froze.

[newportjock]

fate was very hard

[EvilUrago]

FATE reminds me of Apocalymon because of the wires connected to his torso. >_>

[iboiar]

This battle is inventive; especially the way you have to plan your attacks before Fate unleashes its ultimate attack. And I adore the dramatical moment that preceeds this battle.

[Ryan91487]

This has been done before: Some prime examples are FF4's Odin's Zansetsuken and Bahamut's Mega Flare (Countdown Timer).

[capefeather]

Of course it's been done before. It's just not done that often.

[jadewyvernrider]

FF8.

[Lolihime66]

Grobyc is a super saiyan.

[Volcannon]

and he even uses his hair as a weapon too, now thats Elite.

[Yunabeco]

Although the music of CC is probably one of the best VG music ever, I didn't find that battle music cool enough for a baddie that was messing with you for 4/5 of the game or something. :(

Oh well, it's still my favorite RPG along with CT.

[tenstens]

Pip is so CUTE haha

[Ryan91487]

My Party when I fought FATE Consisted of; Serge, Starky and Karsh. All have Denadorite equipment except for Serge who had the Mastermune. I didn't use Diminish, kind of stupid of me not to use that but I was still able to beat it on my first try.

[ThyFadingDirge]

Serge with Mastermune, Glenn with duel Einlanzers, and Fargo with stone equipment. First playthrough the game, killed FATE by the time it counted down to 3 the FIRST time. 1100 crit with serge, 1250 x-strike. The rest was just regular fierce attacks. No black plate. No deaths. Even stole Holy Healing.

[luke33093]

fate is so easy i beat him first time

[troydannyGH]

WTF HOW DID U DO SAINTS??? w.e., this is e-zily best game evr, i beet it bout 5 times, it ois fantastic

[wackyluke444]

Its a summon. you get it from the white dragon, i beleive.

[troydannyGH]

yeah i know that, its just that, its like omPOSSIBLE 2 use cuz he does so many black elements!!!

[wackyluke444]

oh, i see

sorry. i misunderstood.

[p3nd3j00]

how i can use the Star Elements? =/

[Mushrumbo]

FATE was easy how u guys not kill it just use dimish on it and it halves the element attacks and just dont let the count down go to zero

[BiracialGoddess]

Lol! It took me a month to beat this thing.

[jbtheluckyman]

haha

[ThyFadingDirge]

indeed

[Antagonist554]

lawl, you use pip

[JazzGuru17]

Serge and friends shouldn't have had killed Fate, cause them they released the Time Devourer, don't they? Ahhhhhh could someone explain me that story line part again? There's a while since I play Chrono Cross the last...

[BradyBlows4Life]

I know this is a late post but please allow me to explain briefly. Serge and his party members were used by the Dragons to eliminate Fate. Fate was the one who banished the dragons and sealed them away. Originally all 6 dragons were merged into one powerful dragon but Fate was the reason they were broken into weaker entities. Once fate was eliminated, the dragons could reunite into their true form and try to seek revenge against humanity. Resurrecting Terra Tower or "Dinopolis" was an example.

[negative74]

well this is one game better than this and its ssbm

[kaptainKrill]

900 damage w/ saints? What in the world is the matter with your serge? I did somewhere in the neighborhood of 1500... and since you can't level up in this game, I'm confused.

[blackviper726]

@kaptainKrill Fate casted Diminish, halves all techs. If Fate didn't, then it may have dealt 1800.

[jbtheluckyman]

you should use vigora on serge, and clobber him with 3s.

[shockadelica]

How did you get Vigora?

[jbtheluckyman]

vita unis

[jbtheluckyman]

defeat vita unis (red)

[kl4969]

eh I always missed Vigora cuz I didn't know how the Vita system worked =(

[Devilofthering]

Wow, that boss pissed me off to no end. I felt so great when I was finally able to defeat him though.

Chrono Cross, one of the greatest games, PERIOD!

[jbtheluckyman]

how do you record this????????

[CreationForever]

GREATEST BOSS EVER IN THE GREATEST GAME EVER well 2nd to Lavos LOL :P

hey, plz tell me are there any rpg games better than chrono cross for playstation?
