XBox [XBox: Lost Odyssey] Defeating Grand Staff Snake and robots

[Rey]

Alright well this guy just ticks me off with paraflare. Seriously when you kill him he comes back and does paraflare and then I revive Jansen but the stupid robots kill me with force. Did anyone manage to beat this guy if so maybe reccomend some strategy to me plz. Like I am level 17 and can not beat this guy. My teacher told me you have to kill his robots in a certain order. Does he mean all at the same time with Prism? He beat the game cause he was a hardcore fan and lol 4 discs. Plz help.

I just beat this boss the other day actually. Took me a few tries to find a real good strategy.

Alright well, first thing's first, make sure that you are equipped properly. Kaim and Seth should have learned the Anti-Paralysis (from Yellow Band) and make sure that it is SET in their slot. I made the mistake of not setting it in their Seed Slot so I struggled a lot when he hit me with Para-Flare. Then have Jansen equip the Yellow Band, seeing as he's mortal and cannot learn skills permanently.

Now on to battle. Bogimoray will absorb magic energy from those insects, and when his Charge Magic bar is full, that's not good, since he will paralyze your characters if they are not equipped properly. On top of that, his magic attack can kill Jansen if his HP is less than 200, so make sure that he's at least above 250. Basically have Kaim and Seth attack Bogimoray, while Jansen does the Prism attack. Sure it takes two rounds for him to finish executing the attack, but it's worth it. Now, his Prism attack won't kill the bugs right away, and you really don't want those bugs to charge magic, so finish them off with Kaim and Seth (making sure that they both aim different insects since one hit from each of them should be enough to terminate them), and then focus on Bogimoray again. Repeat process.

When he dies, another one comes in. Basically just do the same process, although I know he will start off with Para-Flare. Just make sure that your HP is right around 300 and above BEFORE you finish Bogimoray off in the first round. Otherwise you'd be screwed. Anyway, cast Zephyr so that it heals the entire party.

I had Kaim help Jansen cast Prism a few times too, so that's one thing to consider if you've taken the time to have Kaim learn some Black Magic. Aqua works as well, but I just find Prism much more useful since it does damage to all enemies, and that's very helpful since you won't have to worry about those insects charging magic.

Now, after this battle, there will be another one yet again (soldiers this time), but they're kinda easy. Just make sure you heal before you begin the battle. You'll see a blue orb towards the left side, but there will be no save point. Just concentrate on killing the guard that does White Magic first, and then have Jansen do Prism again. Seth and Kaim should attack and/or do some Black and White Magic if given the opportunity. Pretty simple although it may be a close battle since I almost did die a few times.
