クロノクロス: ラジカル ドリーマーズ エディション New Game+ ガイド

Skip all the unnecessary stuff and have straightforward instructions on what’s needed for achievements available through New Game+.

序章

This guide is specifically for New Game+ only. While doing my other playthroughs, I was slightly annoyed at having to follow the same guide as I did for the first playthrough because it lists a bunch of item locations for things I don’t need since New Game+ allows the player to keep quite a bit from the first playthrough. したがって, this guide will skip all the unnecessary low-level elements and items that someone on New Game+ will not need. それ’ll skip character recruitments with the exception of branching path characters. 私’ll list things that need to be done to get achievements because let’s be honest, most people are playing the game more than once for more than just the gameplay. Having Chrono Cross on that 100% completion showcase will look damn fine.

How To New Game+

At the end of your first playthrough, you should have saved the file after the credits. Once on the title screen again, press CONTINUE, then select that save file. The option for New Game+ is there. If you’re paranoid about messing something up, there are plenty of save spots, so utilizing multiple saves isn’t a problem. You’ll know that you’re on a New Game+ file if you have to summon stars and items from the first playthrough. そうしないと, you accidentally started a regular new game. Story-related items will not be among the items carried over from the first playthrough.

Achievements Covered

Achievements Covered Include:

Permanently Recruiting Harle

シンプルです, 本当に. You have to beat the game while Harle is still in your party and SAVE, then continue from that save file. それから, when you use the Chrono Cross in the Dimensional Vortex, she’ll be among the others. Just do this on one of your playthroughs while recruiting other characters you haven’t before. 例えば, I did this on my second playthrough while recruiting Guile, then choosing NOT to save Kid to recruit those characters. それから, upon using the Chrono Cross on my third playthrough after getting Pierre, voilà: The Recruiter 成果.

始まり

• Right from the start when Serge wakes up, go to Opassa Beach, use the Time Egg at the purple wormhole, and fight the Devourer of Time for Ending #1 and its correlating achievement: The Developers’ 部屋. Suggestion: Equip a Red Brooch on Serge to prevent confusion, as it is definitely the most annoying status effect in the fight without anyone to cure Serge of it. Important info: You have until talking to Leena on the pier to do this or you’ll miss the chance to do so until another playthrough. Do not recruit Poshul yet, as Serge needs to fight alone to obtain Ending #1.
• To progress the story, get the Komodo Scales at Lizard Rock for Leena, then talk to her at Opassa Beach.
• After Serge enters Another World the first time, go to the purple wormhole and fight the Devourer of Time for Ending #2 and its correlating achievement: The Acacian Empire. Important info: You have until before you reach Termina to get this ending.
• To advance the story, talk to Leena (Another World) at the pier in Arni Village, then visit Cape Howl to see Serge’s grave. Fight Karsh. Go to Fossil Valley; fight the Shaker Brothers. Go to Termina.

Nikki, Razzly, エンディング #4, & エンディング #3

You can recruit Nikki, Guile, or Pierre. しかし, to get Ending #3, you must recruit Nikki, so I hope you didn’t recruit him in a previous playthrough or you’ll have another playthrough to add to the count to obtain all characters.

• In Termina, talk to the guy polishing the Viper statue for a scene with Kid. Go to Nikki’s ship, get informed that he’s missing, then head to Shadow Forest.
• Get the Aroma Pouch from under the little waterfall cave and lure the blob to the monster blocking the path with pollen. Fight Zoah and the Shakers. Go into the tree and follow the path forward.
• At Viper Manor, go to the stables and feed the “ドラゴンズ” the minimum amount to obtain the manor key. In the manor, fall through the trap by the snake statue. Find the dragoon dining area with Glenn, then the rest area to find the code. Go the treasure room. の “パスワード” is silence. Take the silver pendant from the wall. Go through Luccia’s BS. Return to the snake statue and put in the correct code. Go to the library to fight Marcy. In the main hall, hit the switch on the left side, second-to-last pillar. Ascend to the second level. Go into Viper’のオフィス, examine the Dragon Tear, and fight Lynx.
• When the menu screen comes up, take everything valuable off of Kid since she won’t be in your party for a bit and because Mel’s a little thief.
• At Guldove, choose to save Kid, as you’ll need Razzly for Ending #3 同じように.
• After events with Kid getting poisoned, talk to the shaman at the dragon shrine, then go to Opassa Beach and fight that damn Devourer of Time again for Ending #4. あなた’ll receive the achievement: The Shop Staff and the Three Unlikely Heroes. Important info: You can accomplish this until either Kid is healed or you recruit Razzly.
• In Guldove, go to the bar and talk to the dwarf to receive the Green Tinkler so you can get through the Hydra Marshes.
• Go to Opassa Beach to return to Home World, then head to the Hydra Marshes.

重要な注意事項: To recruit Razzly, you must go rescue her before fighting the hydra. From the first screen in the Hydra Marshes, go to the left where Razzly’s shadow went. Follow the path until you fight a beeba, obtain the Beeba Flute, use the flute in the open area, fight the wingapede, then fall through the broken ground, and fight the pentapus. Rescue Razzly from the cage. ドン’t put her in your party for the hydra fight. After defeating the hydra, examine its corpse for the Hydra Humour.

• Leave Hydra Marshes and go to Opassa Beach to get Ending #3. あなた’ll get the achievement: The Magical Dreamers. Important info: You must have Nikki and Razzly in your party.
• Go back to Guldove to cure Kid and get her back in your party.

Skip to Getting to Fort Dragonia of the guide to proceed.

Pierre or Guile & NOT Saving Kid

For simplicity sake, I’ll write Pierre and Guile’s playthroughs along with ない saving Kid, as recruiting Nikki is required for endings you can only get while also saving Kid.

For Pierre, go to Zappa’s smithy, to the room to the east, and talk to Pierre. Go outside to the south and talk to the child running around. After obtaining the Hero’s Medal, go talk to Pierre again. Go straight to the front gate of Viper Manor.

For Guile, go to the bar in Termina. Talk to Korcha (near the shrine) to get a ride to Viper Manor Bluffs. Climb the bluffs and fight the bird enemies.

• Once you’re at Viper Manor, it’s pretty much the same instructions as the ones on Nikki’s route.
• Once you’re in Guldove, choose not to save Kid.
• Go talk to Korcha in the residential tent (which is to the east of the shop tent). Macha suggests going to the shaman; the Dragon Shrine is all the way to the west. Go to the entrance of Guldove where Macha is waiting.
• Go to the Termina entrance to witness Glenn talking to the flower seller, then return to where Macha is. Both join the party, and now you’ve got a boat.
• Go to Hermit’隠れ家; fight Harle. Talk to Radius.

Continue onto the next section (skip the first bullet), as at this point, それ’s about the same regardless of who you chose at Termina.

Getting to Fort Dragonia

• To advance the story, witness Glenn talking to the flower seller at the entrance of Termina. Go back to Korcha. Head to Burned-out Hermit’隠れ家; fight Harle. Talk to Radius.

Head to Opassa Beach and then head to Water Dragon Isle (Home World) via the guy at the dock in Arni Village. あなたが持っているなら’t recruited Razzly before, bring her along to Water Dragon Isle for extra story-related dialogue.
• After the events on Water Dragon Isle and receiving the Ice Breath, go back to Another World and then to Mt. Pyre. Fight your way through.
• At Fort Dragonia, the fastest way to get through the puzzles …

Getting to the Tower of Geddon

• You might’ve been like me and didn’t use Harle much on the first playthrough (because she’s black elemented, so Serge as Lynx has to share black elements if they’re both in the party). On your 2nd playthrough, you should be able to use Harle’s level 7 tech as soon as you get her and get the achievement: Lunacy. Just be sure to do this before Harle leaves your party.
• Leave the Hydra Marshes and go to Opassa Beach. Fight the Devourer of Time for Ending #5 and its correlating achievement: The Rebirth of Marbule. Important info: You have until before you rescue Riddel to get this ending.

Zelbess to talk to Fargo with the other Fargo in order to save Marbule (if you talked to Nikki earlier). “A dragon’s cry can be heard in the distance” lets you know that you’ve defeated all the Lagoonates. あるいは, you can skip this and get the Black Relic while the Black Dragon sleeps later. あなた’ll miss out on stealing the Black Plate from the dragon, being able to forge Rainbow equipment, the Grim Reaper summon, and Fargo’s level 7 動く “無敵” けれど. それ’s up to you, 仲間.
