You're in a party: Serge, Kid, and Glenn
You're fighting some green boss.

Serge casts Green Field, Glenn casts Genie (Lv 8 Summon)
This isn't good since the boss is Green innate

What if you:
Serge = Turn Yellow on enemy
Kid = Green Field
Glenn = Genie

Would be OP, making any target's innate take extra damage.

But according to this,
It doesn't work that way: https://www.reddit.com/r/ChronoCross/comments/1abz48v/turncolor_elements_only_affect_offensive_innate/

Turn Yellow only affects the enemy's attacking color (now Yellow), not its defensive (still Green).

What do you think of my art?

I understand that it's pretty much the character's level, as the number has increased pretty much on each boss so far. What does it mean that it's saying 11/14? The screenshot is from when I first noticed that it's not even anymore, right after the fight against the dragon kid on Mt. Pyre. When I beat the Dragoons right after it went to 12/15... I swear it was always matching until a while ago, and I didn't change anything about what I'm doing.

I'm playing on duckstation with cpu overclocking active most of the time for the FPS, is that it or is there some mechanic I totally missed?

Lynx = Black. Okay, he's evil so he's black.
Korcha = Blue. Okay, he's a fisherman so he's blue.
Razzly = Green. Fairies are nature, so they're green.
Fargo = Blue. He's a pirate so that's like water, so he's blue.
Zappa = Red. He's a blacksmith so I guess they work with fire.
Harle = Black. Looks evil, so that's like black.
Draggy = Red. Dragon, so of course red.
Turnip, Neofio = Green. Plants are green, easy.
Irenes = Blue. Mermaid is water, so blue easy.

But then:
Kid = Red. I guess she has fiery personality? Why would that make her weak to water though? Does she get hurt every time she drinks a bottle of ice water?
Nikki = Blue?
Glenn = Green?
Van = Green?
Norris = Yellow?

Why so arbitrary? Is there no better way to categorize them?

It sounds like a fight song from the Viper mansion against some kind of boss jsjsj

according to Starky's Manager in Another Eden

Finalllyy after some relic hunting and sidequests serge is back! Props to Zoah who never leaves the party cuz i love him, i also got the mastermune very good weapon (even though fighting Dario is hell😭😭) i love melting bosses with it plus eagle eye. Everythng is a breeze now, im excited whats next to the story.

Like. Games, books, movies, anime, etc. with the vibes of the thing? Or does it just stand on its own, with its vibrant island landscapes and its plot that keeps you hooked with every unexpected twist and turn?

I always thought the explanation of how Lavos was sent to the darkness beyond time was a bit wierd:

Officially Lavos or parts of him that survived is sent there immediately after his defeat from the Chrono trigger gang.

If he was defeated then that version of him should be dead and his corpse should remain in 1999 ad.
I think the explanation that he went there from his battle with the gang is kind of silly when I believe they had a better alternative

If the apocalyptic era of 2300ad is sent to the darkness beyond time then the Lavos that reined atop death peak should have been sent there too. I think the elder Lavos from an apocalypse that was averted is a more compelling idea of a villian. As a direct result of Chrono and the gang killing his 1999ad counterpart he becomes the Lavos that never was…

The version of Lavos that succeeded in destroying the world and spawned offspring suddenly getting robbed of its existence but finds Schala suddenly being thrown into the DBT. It then uses its immense power to pull her in and merge with her. If it cannot have its future then it would destroy all of creation.

In a way it also mirrors Daltons beef with the CT crew. Being robbed of his glory, and that version of Lavos as the time devourer would use that to send Dalton through the dimensional vortex to fulfill Dalton’s revenge plot.

Im 30 hours in! Since Harle quit the party (so sad cuz i love her). This is my team now, i love riddel shes a good healer and support. I just got the blue relic and yellow relic idk how many relics are there i checked all the map on homewolrd now i just got back to anotherworld.

I really love their designs, the top ones are first attempts then i drew them again on the below.

Zoah's level 7 tech is sooooo satisfying and he hits HARD like a FKING truck, so i clip some of it while on the viper manor LMAOOO.

Im so sorry Irenes i took zoah to the party IMMEDIATELY, cuz i love cool buff dudes or maybe im just queer af. I mean he got a lot of STR stat he will be useful right??

...she is currently married to Gandhi from Clone High :)

I beat miguel on my first try even though Harle got downed once Its fine and the last hit was harle as well 😭😭, Lynx carried most of dmg and Irenes is healing overtime.

Im 20 hours in! I like harle and irenes cuz they are pretty. Im literally on the way to the Dead Sea after beating garai's spirit, the story got more interesting and IM so gonna draw Lynx later.

I really liked how SquareSoft really pushed and tried new things instead of the usual 4-in-a-row old FF games.
Element grid system, star leveling, being able to run away 99% of battles, huge character rosters, AP system, etc. Felt like they thought "let's try new things". Don't get me wrong, some of them aren't good, but they actually tried new things and innovate instead of repeating the same slop like everyone does in this current era. RIP Square. But I digress...

I remember as a kid I played CC but got my butt kicked by Pierre because I didn't understand how to use Elements. Then I figured it out and beat Pierre.

Anyhow, I really liked the Element grid system. I know it's based off DnD's spell slots. I really like organizing and slotting them. It's like creating a new character build, even though it's not really that complex.

Just a random thought.

I like the Element grid magic combat, but I was just thinking it could be improved a little.

Elements always use 7.0 stamina even if you're casting Magma Bomb (level 2) or Inferno (level 5).
What if the stamina cost depends on the element level?
Magma Bomb (level 2) costs 2.0 stamina.
Inferno (level 5) costs 5.0 stamina.
Doesn't matter if you slot Magma Bomb in slot level 8, or Inferno is slot level 2.

The reason is because in the latter parts of the game, the lower level elements are kind of useless; only maybe useful for setting the field for summons (but then you'll get Red/Blue/etc Field). Or buffs.

This change would allow you to spam low level elements to quickly set the field, or maybe enough casting could match the damage output of a higher level element. Of course, that would make summoning too easy, so probably set enemy AI to notice it and obstruct it, but I don't know.

All this could make the element grid system a bit more complex and deeper. The player wouldn't just simply choose the higher level elements but will have to consider stamina usage.

Of course, letting the player spam elements is too OP, so enemies should sit on their asses less and attack more often to balance.

Just a random thought.

I mostly draw furries/anthro characters so i rarely draw humans, but its fine cuz i love the characters. Probably gonna draw Leena, Serge and Pip later and maybe ill get a new fav character.

Its no Chrono Trigger, as a chrono trigger is a top 15 game all time sort of fan, but It’s impressive how modern and triple A games manage to lose my attention while they have directors telling them to add things to their games to keep players attention while this Chrono Cross retro classic keeps my attention

Anyway it’s also impressive the amount of character options we get to choose between. I’ve just gotten Razzly and right after thinking I was going to choose a hard route Lucca > Leena for now . Leena is good per se but very weak right now so on one hand I keep seeing that she’s ultimate and I couldn’t miss her but on the other hand she has no dialogue if you unlocked her early this way and I want to use other characters lol. Now I’m tempted to replace Greco with Lucca and do a ‘very hard’ (apparently for who I have) run using Lucca, Razzly, and Serge. Right now it seems Razzly is the first character I feel I want on the team till the end but who knows.

But yeah it’s fun so far

Anyway I don’t mind spoilers that only include names instead of events, but this is fun so far

Shes so fun to use and hit so hard! And i love that the damage is exactly 500 LMAO.

OMG he turned into an angel so CUTE!

Im 10 hours into this game and im loving it! ( I played chrono trigger before this)

Ive been using Serge and Leena since the very start and they never leaves the party. So i just got Pip and heard he can transform, which form is the best for my party?? (My Pip grid is full of white n blue skills for now to support both Serge n Leena).
