Date: Sun, 12 Jul 1998 08:01:57 -0600 SOU KAI GI Boss Strategy FAQ by. Grandchester Resurrection (grandchester@resurrection.com) Hi, welcome to my Sou Kai Gi Boss Strategy FAQ. I won't write about the characters, walktroughs, basic moves, translations, etc... I just want to write about my strategy against the Kick-Ass boss in this great game. Feel free to distribute, however in it's current form. Well, let's starts... DISK ONE: 1st boss Boss : Kahaku Boss Stage : Small Village in Japan HP : 2000 Character I used: Naoya with Mizuho's sword (Only) OK, this is your first boss battle. All you have to do here is stay close to him, and do Naoya's combos. Unfortunatelly Naoya use Mizuho's sword, so you can't do a lot of combos with it. He'll walk away from you, shoot fireball, protect himself with the shield, and attack area with the shield. The most dangerous attack is the attack area. But it won't harm you unless you stay close to him. Always block his fireball, dodge if you can. If you freeze him, he'll knock you away. One more tips, use Naoya's Dash Attack as many times as possible... Don't worry, he isn't as hard as you think. 2nd boss Boss : Fire Devil Battle field : Beneth the Earth HP : 1800 Character I used: Naoya Remember to use Daiki before this battle, so Naoya's strength won't reduce. The battle field is huge. Block it's dash attack, and combo it. It can shoot fireball if you run away from it. Attack it with your combo, then run away climb the mountain. Turn arround, if you're face to face with it, use Naoya's Dash Attack and continue with some nasty combo... Easy, easy. One more... Use Healing Circles when your HP is low. 3rd boss Boss : Kanan Gabu Battle Field : Gabu's House HP : 1000 Character I used: Naoya Gabu is very fast and can do a very nasty combos. He is very deadly, especially if you fight him strightly. The major point to beat him is don't use Naoya before this battle. Fill your Attack Power and Magic with Garans. He always running and jumping arround the area. When he close to you, use Naoya's combo. He'll jump away, climb his house, he'll land near you, and use Naoya's combos again. When he is standing and do nothing, use Dash Attack. When your HP is low, use your 8th magic... Cure. 4th boss Boss : Mono-Eye Evil Battle Field : Small Village near Gabu's House HP : 2100 Character I used: Kanan Gabu You musn't use Naoya here. His strength is low after the battle with Gabu, but Gabu isn't like that. He has his normal strength... So use him. This battle is quite hard because the Mono-Eye almost never lands. Mono-Eye will shoot you with a lot of Fireball, climb a house and reflect it with Gabu's fist. Yeah, like baseball! 5th boss Boss : Flying Robot Battle Field : Dessert Mountain HP : 3000 Character I used: Naoya/Azsa Stay in the top of the mountain to beat this boss. It isn't very hard, but it has a great strength to defend. Fortunatelly it often stay and just shooting some lasers. Stand in front of it, and use combo. Remember if Naoya do his last hit, he'll turn arround. Tap R1 or L1 to rotate and face the opponent. Do the combo again. Ifd you use Azsa, you have to stay in the top of the mountain, and throw arrows. If your HP is low, find the Healing Circle in some destroyed house below the mnountain. Don't use your magic to heal, but use it to Invincible (5th magic). 6th boss Boss : Infu Battle Field : Dessert Mountain HP : One Hit Only Character I used: Naoya again Although you can beat her with one hit, but don't think if it's easy. It's actually hard, man. She almost never lands, and always flying arround and shooting a lot of deadly... Really deadly fireball. I beated her when I was right under her and I did the combo. She died in my uppercut! DISK TWO: 7th boss Boss : Defender Battle Field : Destruction City HP : 3600 Character I used: Naoya A fun battle, because the battle field is huge - real huge. Destroy as many crystal as you can in this stage, that's way you should fill the Jump and Dash Power! Enough for the stage, now let's start talking about the boss. The boss isn't very hard in the beginning. Usually it's flying low in the street and shooting fireball. Just combo it as many times as you can. When it's HP is getting low, it'll fly high to the bridge and shoot a huge and deadly laser... This time I call it deadly... In the bridge, you'll find a Healing Circle. Use it when your HP is low... Use your magic to stop time. If thew time stops, use combo - combo - and combo... And when it flying high in the bridge, reach the highest level of the bridge and use Dash Attack. 8th boss Boss : Kahaku Battle Field : Blue Crystal Shrine HP : 3300 Character I used: Naoya Kahaku is getting faster this time. Not like the previous battle, he wont walk slowly, while his shield attack you... This time, he's floating fast and shoot a lot of fireball. He has all of his previous moves, plus a new huge fireball. All you have to do is always getting close to him. Combo! Use you're combo when he use his Shield attack. Lightning Strike is great to damage him. Use your magic to Invincible. 9th boss Boss : Muntant Evil Battle Field : Great Road inside Earth HP : 3200 Character I used: Naoya Tough... Very tough... This is the most difficult battle so far. The major problem is the battle field. It is only a long road with a lot of fallen floor and without any fence on the side! So you can fall and it takes a lot of HP!!!! Next is the enemy. It is floating, almost never lands, shoots a crazy fireball that very damaging, shoots areial laser beam if you get closer, and make a wall to protect itself! Sounds tough, huh! OK... Now the strategy. The most damaging attack for this ugly creature is his own fireball. Remember when you fight Mono Eye? Use the same strategy as you fight Mono Eye to beat the Muntant Evil. Save your magic for Cure, and fill the attack and projectile meter. DISK THREE: 10th Boss Boss : Yato Battle Field : Destroyed City HP : 2000 Character I used: Naoya Yato is very fast and his attack is very damaging. He often freeze you and make a Shield. He isn't very hard, just freeze him, and use your combo. Don't use your Dash Attack, it'll miss. 11th boss Boss : Kahaku Battle Field : The way to the tower HP : 7000 Character I used: Daiki (Only) Don't hassle yourself to attack him. Just try to get to the top of the tower. Feel your jump and magic def meter into maximum. If you jump freely, you'll fall down. You have to jump upward, and dash, then press dash again to land. Do this as fast as you can... You'll win. 12th boss Boss : Kahaku Battle Field : Kahaku's top tower HP : 7000 Character I used: Naoya (only) This is the final battle against Kahaku. He lost his Shield but he is getting faster and never close to you. Feel your projectile meter into maximum. Toss a lot of projectile to him. Use combo if he is closer. 13th boss Boss : Infu Battle Field : Infu's top tower HP : 6000 - 2000 Character I used: Hifumi/Mizuho Not to hard, all you have to do is fight until her HP reach 4000. Don't use Naoya here. I use Hifumi, while my friends use Mizuho. If you use Hifumi, do a hide and attack technique. When Infu lands, combo her. When Infu flies, jump near her and toss projectile from air. Yes, it's correct, Hifumi doesn't has any projectile meter, but Hifumi has a great air projectile. Just jump, when you get down, press the attack button! If you use Mizuho, you'll fell like you use Naoya. 14th boss Boss : Infu Battle Field : Infu's Stage HP : 4000 Character I used: Naoya (Only) Now the finishing touch. This time you'll fight as Naoya. First use the Sword Beam attack as many times as you have, that attack is very damaging to her. If you don't have any materia to do Sword Beam, just attack her with combos. This time she'll always floating arround. Never landing! You can do combo if you trap her in the corner. One more note. If you use Sword Beam, you'll lose your HP too. So feel your magic meter to heal yourself. 15th boss Boss : Muntant Evil Resurrection Battle Field : Yanron's Domain HP : 3600 HP Character I used: Daiki I think Daiki is the best for this battle. Before we talk about the battle, lets talk about the area first. In the last area, you'll fight a lot of deadly creatures... Real deadly! There are two types of creatures that'll attack you. The first one is the Frog Evil. It'll knock you away when you attack it. Freeze and finish it with combo. It is very damaging! The second creature is the Bird Evil. It has a low attack power, but very fast and poisonus. Freeze it and combo it. You only need 4 hit to kill it if you use Daiki. Kill as many creatures as you can, so you'll have a lot of Materias. If you kill all the creatures, you can use Super Flaming Spin Attack four times, and Flaming Spin Attack once. Great isn't it. As soon as you beat this level, you'll fight the Mutant Evil again. Fortunatelly the battle field isn't as bad as your previous battle. It's tough and poisonus, it lost all it's attack and has a two new attack. The first one is Dash Attack. Fast, chase you, and can be done in air. The next attack is Poison Claw. This is dangerous and poisonus. Remember to block even when you're using Daiki. Daiki can block physical attacks but can't block projectiles or magics. It means he can block all of the Muntant's attacks. Use your magic to invincible. Attack it with combo, when you're poisonus, use the Super Flaming Spin Attack. Get close with it when you use this move, it'll really harm it. If your Area Meter (the meter in the top right of the screen) reach blue, it means you are in Heal Mode. You'll gain your lost HP and you'll cure from Poison. If your HP is low, use Healing Circle. 15th boss Boss : Yanron Battle Field : Yanron's top tower (Heaven's Gate) HP : 8888 - 6666 Character I used: Naoya (Only) Exciting battle... Really. Yanron has meteo ball shoot and mega ball shoot. He's also float, but he'll lands sometimes. He often freeze you! This time you can't feel any meter, so Naoya have to fight with his default strength. See the Magic Circles in the ground, use them for Invincible. Yanron'll fly to the mountainus place, chase him and do your combos. If your invincibility is gone, retreat, and use the Magic Circle to invincible again. You'll want to make a megic Shield too. Final boss Boss : Yanron Battle Field : Heaven's Gate HP : 6666 Character I used: Naoya (Only) Getting more exciting. I think this battle is fair enough. Naoya with his super strength (full strength) and Yanron with his real power. Yanron has all his previous moves plus teleport and super meteo ball attack. Use the same strategy like the previous battle... Invincible! You won't find any Magic Circle here, but you can Invincible three times. Always use them to win this battle. Finish! After the very exciting battle with Yanron, now it's your time to enjoy the ending scane and a beautiful music... You'll get a new-game-plus-like after you finish this game. Well, how about that?
