This is a guide to beat all the bosses in the game. It has strategies as 
well as the reccomended level. It may contain spoilers, so only use it 
if you're really in a jam.

Saline Slimer
Level: 11-12

This guy recovers a lot of HP at the end of each round, so you'll need 
to do a lot of damage quickly in order to beat him. In the first round, 
have Alex use Vigor, Luna use Cascade Song on Ramus, and Nash and Ramus 
defend. After that, have Alex use Sword Dance every round and Luna heal 
when needed. Have Nash use Thunder Bomb frequently to do a lot of damage 
and Ramus attack every round. If the Slimer catches you in a slime 
bubble, you won't be able to fight for a few rounds. Finish him off 
quickly to prevent this from happening.

Water Dragon
Level: 15-16

Before you enter this battle, move everyone back as far as they can go 
(on the "checkerboard" on Nall's menu). This way, you'll be out of range 
of his fire attack. Have Ramus use healing items when nessesary and 
attack (if you equipped him with a bow). Have Luna concentrate on 
healing and attacking with a bow when nobody needs it, and have Alex use 
Vigor, followed by Sword Dance at each turn. Without the fire attack, 
the Water Dragon is pretty wimpy.

Truffle Troubler
Level: 17-18

This guy is tough because you can't use items. Have Alex just use Sword 
Dance. Don't bother with Vigor, it drains more MP than you can spare. If 
you run out of MP, just keep attacking. Have Luna use Cascade Song the 
first round to increase the amount of damage Alex does. After a few 
tries you should get him.

DragonMaster Zoc
Level: 19-20

This guy doesn't do much damage, except with one attack. Have Nash use 
Thunder Bomb, Alex use Vigor in the first round, Luna use Cascade Song 
on Jessica, and Jessica defend. For the rest of the fight, have Alex use 
Sword Dance and Nash use Thunder Bomb, and Jessica and Luna heal. Spread 
out your team to prevent taking too much damage from his stomp attack.

Vile Crustacean
Level: 22-25

This guy is a toughie. Only Alex's sword Techs do any real damage. Have 
him use Vigor, and then Sword Dance every turn after that. You may want 
to equip the Angel Ring on him that you found in the Crystal Tower, in 
case he gets bopped. Use a Star Light on him if he runs low on MP. Have 
Mia and Nash use their best spells to do slight damage (it's better than 
nothing...). Have Jessica heal anyone who's injured. Mia should also 
cast Ice Shell on everyone to reduce the damage they take.

Plaster Mel
Level: 23-25

Be sure Kyle has some good healing items before you try to leave the 
forest, because this guy will attack and Kyle has to face him alone. 
Cast Power Up the first turn, and then use Power Slash on him. If he 
gets close, use Power Sweep to inflict a good amount of damage. Use a 
Star Light and some Healing Nuts as needed.

Bronze Dogs
Level: 24-26

Have Alex use Vigor and then Sword Dance, as always. Have Kyle use Power 
Up and then Power Slash and Power Sweep. Have Mia use her Ice spells to 
inflict a lot of damage on them. Have Nash use his spells to do a good 
amount of damage, and have Jessica heal. They can use some pretty nasty 
attacks. Be sure to heal up when one ignites itself, because a nasty 
fire attack is on the way.

Black Dragon

Level: 28-30

Have Alex use the Vigor/Sword Dance combo, as he always does. Have Nash 
use Thunderbolt, Kyle the Power Up/Power Slash combo, and Tempest use 
Flash Arrow. Use Star Lights as needed. Try not to use your Silver 
Lights unless you absolutely need to. You'll have to use Blue Dragon 
healing at least once, I guarantee it. Use items the rest of the time to 
heal.

Shadow Spectre

Level: 31-33

Have Alex use Vigor/Sword Dance, Kyle use Power Up/Power Slash, Nash use 
ThunderBolt, Mia use Ice Shell and Power Drive on anyone that needs it, 
and Jessica cast Saint Litany. For the rest of the fight, use everyone's 
best attacks. It can inflict some nasty status effects, so be sure to 
remove them with Holy Waters or Cleanse Litany.

Magic Masher

Level: 32-34

The Magic Masher is weak against Fire, so have Mia open fire with Flame 
Bomb. She can also use Ice Shell to reduce damage. Have Alex use 
Vigor/Sword Dance, Kyle use Power Up/Power Slash,and Jess cast Saint 
Litany and heal (especially after his Thunder Storm attack). Don't use 
Red Dragon Anger, as it drains a LOT of MP, and a few Sword Dance techs 
will take save your MP. He's not too tough to beat, just try to outlast 
him.

Magic Emperor

Level: 40-45 (level up a LOT in the Grindery)

Have everyone power up at the beginning with Vigor, Power Up, Ice Shell, 
and Saint Litany, and then just nail him with your best spells. You 
should prevail if you keep up the assault.

Ghaleon

Level: Doesn't matter

He won't attack much this time, but after a few rounds he'll unload a 
REALLY powerful blast that will kill everyone. You're supposed to lose 
this battle, so don't hit Reset once you lose (and fight the Magic 
Emperor again. Ugh.).

Royce

Level: 47-52

You'll enter this battle with a few of your characters asleep. Use Holy 
Water and Cleanse Litany to wake them up. Then use Vigor/Sword Dance, 
Ice Shell/Ice Wall, Power Up/Power Slash, Saint Litany/Healing, and 
Thunderbolt. This is a tough battle, but you should win if you just keep 
up your attacks. Don't use up your Silver Lights, because there is a 
statue that heals you right after the room you fight in.

Xenobia

Level: 50-55

Xenobia is a tough opponent. She can turn your teammates to stone. To 
prevent this, equip Fresh Rings on your team and use Holy Waters and 
Cleanse Litany. Use Vigor/Sword Dance (and maybe Blue Dragon healing if 
you need to), Thunder Bolt, Power Up/Power Slash, Saint Litany and 
healing, and Ice Shell and Power Drive. Use Flame Bomb and Ice Wall to 
attack with Mia. Cast Power Drive on Alex or Kyle if you have to revive 
them to keep them in the fight. Use Silver Lights sparingly in this 
battle, as you'll need them very soon. Xenobia is really tough, but 
nothing compared to...

Magic Emperor Ghaleon

Level: As high as possible!!!

Ghaleon!!!! This guy is REALLY tough. He'll either get two attacks, two 
spells, or one spell and two attacks in each round. Cast Vigor and Power 
Up on Alex and Kyle respectively. Then use Saint Litany, and Ice 
Shell/Power Drive on everyone. He has no major weakness, so just use 
your best spells and heal at EVERY chance. You may have to use Blue 
Dragon Healing once in a while. Don't be afraid to use it (I highly 
reccomend that you equip Alex with Ghaleon's Tear to half his MP 
consumption, as you may end up having to use it quite a few times). This 
guy takes FOREVER to beat. If everyone is fully healed, have Jessica re-
cast Saint Litany. If you don't need to use Saint Litany, defend with 
Jessica. Nash should carry the most important items (Silver Lights!!!), 
because he almost always get the first turn in battle. I highly 
reccomend equipping Jessica with an Angel Ring, just in case she runs 
low on MP, you can let her get bopped, and she'll be revived with full 
HP and MP. This should save you from having to use one of your valuable 
Silver Lights!
