Bosses

These are the big bad bosses of Secret of Mana. Some of them may look threatening, but most are easy if you are leveled up and you use the correct type of magic. 

	Mantis Ant's Statistics: HP:150 MP:20 EXP:10 GP:100 Weakness: None	This is the first boss of the game, and naturally he is a piece of cake. Just hit him with the sword and if you get in trouble Jema will heal you.
	Tropicallo's Statistics: HP:315 MP:0 EXP:80 GP:320 Weakness: None	If you're not leveled up, this guy is going to rock you. All you have to do is dodge the pumpkin bombs, and attack him when he surfaces. You should have time to charge up before he comes up. Don't bother with the vine.
	Spikey Tiger's Statistics: HP:520 MP:21 EXP:210 GP:288 Weakness: None	This is the first real hard boss of the game. Magic would be useful in this battle, but you don't have it yet so to bad. You want to be at a high level, from 10-15. Level up by going on the bridge north of the jail and use long range weapons to kill the werewolves. Make sure you have health replenishing items.
	Tonpole's Statistics: HP:600 MP:0 EXP:50 GP:0 Weakness: None	This is a boss....I guess. Just hit him and don't let him touch you.
	Biting Lizard's Statistics: HP:770 MP:6 EXP:210 GP:348 Weakness: None	Tonpole has gone through evolution quite quickly. After you beat him, he will transform into the Biting Lizard. Just hit him and don't let him eat you as it will do a lot of damage. He knows cure water so be diligent. Trust me, your prize for beating this guy is worth it.
	Fire Gigas' Statistics: HP:850 MP:66 EXP:326 GP:360 Weakness: Freeze	This guy looks tough but he is not too bad. Make sure Undine is at level 2 for the sprite and the girl. Use freeze on Fire Gigas to really weaken him, and use cure water with the girl to heal yourselves. If you run out of magic before you kill him ,which is likely, just hit him with weapons.
	Wall Face's Statistics: HP:1220 MP:99 EXP:582 GP:720 Weakness: Central Eye	First of all, do not underestimate this guy. His magic is powerful, but just use gem missile in the center eye to kill him.
	Kilroy's Statistics: HP:900 MP:18 EXP:686 GP:650 Weakness: None	This guy is cake. Just use magic and the whip and he will be scrap in no time.
	Jabberwocky's Statistics: HP:950 MP:90 EXP:800 GP:768 Weakness: Earth Slide	This guy is a little tough if you don't have good magic. Use earth slide a lot and he should die quickly. If he is still alive, attack with the whip and that should finish him.
	Spring Beak's Statistics: HP:720 MP:99 EXP:1090 GP:864 Weakness: Earth Slide	He is hard to hit with weapons, but earth slide should finish it off. Just use magic.
	Great Viper's Statistics: HP:1330 MP:8 EXP:1410 GP:1056 Weakness: Thunderbolt	I hate this guy. Make sure you have medical herbs because he will turn you into a midge. Thunderbolt works good, but make sure you have leveled sylphid up to level 2 before you fight him. If sylphid is leveled up, you should make short work of this worm.
	Mech Rider's Statistics: HP:980 MP:18 EXP:1595 GP:1055 Weakness: Thunderbolt	This guy is easy. I don't even usually bother using magic. I just attack him with Randi and he dies pretty quickly. If you feel like it though, thunderbolt seems effective.
	Boreal Face's Statistics: HP:1100 MP:12 EXP:2245 GP:1040 Weakness: Energy Absorb	Weapons seem more effective than magic against this guy too. Just hit him with the whip and sword, and use some magic. Energy Absorb seems effective, but I hate that spell.
	Frost Gigas' Statistics: HP:1140 MP:99 EXP:3045 GP:1200 Weakness: Exploder	In all seriousness, this guy is Santa. Just level up Salamado to about level 3 with the sprite and use exploder. This should make short work of the frozen saint.
	Minotaur's Statistics: HP:1200 MP:99 EXP:3348 GP:1440 Weakness: Thunderbolt	Thunderbolt is really good against this guy, so if it is leveled up, use it. If you run out of magic use the whip. I disapprove of using the sword because this guy's attacks will clobber you, so don't fight in close quarters.
	Doom's Wall's Statistics: HP:1605 MP:99 EXP:4751 GP:648 Weakness: Central Eye	This guy's magic is insane. Just use gem missile on the center eye like last time to finish him, or take out the two eyes on the side (watch out because the left one will use reviver) and then focus your attacks on the center eye.
	Vampire's Statistics: HP:2550 MP:99 EXP:5148 GP:696 Weakness: Thunderbolt	If you wasted a lot of magic on the Doom's Wall, then you may have trouble with this boss. If you didn't or recovered with a Fairy Walnut, then just use thunderbolt and this guy will be dead in a matter of moments.
	Metal Mantis' Statistics: HP:1220 MP:40 EXP:4749 GP:1464 Weakness: Thunderbolt	This is just like the first boss of the game, and he's not that much harder. Use thunderbolt, and if you run out of magic, weapons will finish him off pretty efficiently also.
	Mech Rider 2's Statistics: HP:1258 MP:80 EXP:6013 GP:1500 Weakness: Thunderbolt	Magic works good against this guy, but weapons work too. He's not a particularly difficult boss, but watch out for some of his attacks. The prize you get for beating him is more than worth it.
	Lime Slime's Statistics: HP:2888 MP:99 EXP:8000 GP:3000 Weakness: Exploder	This guy is real easy. Use exploder on it, and as it takes damage it will grow in size. Make sure you have fairy walnuts with you (a good rule for all the time) and you will finish this guy off no problem.
	Blue Spike's Statistics: HP:1980 MP:99 EXP:9150 GP:3840 Weakness: Earth Slide	Use Earth Slide, and make sure you have plenty of magic restoring items as this boss will stay on pillars to avoid your weapons. He will only jump down to tackle you and then run away. When you take away about half its life, he will act finished by losing his head. He will then proceed to attack again, until you kill him for real.
	Gorgon Bull's Statistics: HP:2470 MP:99 EXP:9755 GP:4800 Weakness: Thunderbolt	Simple tactics, stay away and use magic. If he gets close enough to hit you it will do massive damage. He will charge you on occasion, but you should be able to dodge.
	Doppelganger's Statistics: HP:0 MP:0 EXP:0 GP:0 Weakness: None	Ok, magic isn't real effective so I wouldn't even bother. Just attack with weapons and avoid their attacks, especially when they charge up. Keep pounding on them until they give up.
	Aegagropilon's Statistics: HP:3016 MP:99 EXP:11050 GP:1800 Weakness: Earth Slide	Ok, if you have shade at a high level, use Dispell and this guy will go down fast. If not you may be in trouble. He will cast wall as soon as your battle begins, so you will have to use weapons, which is dangerous because this guy hits hard. My advice is to  level up Shade.
	Hydra's Statistics: HP:3382 MP:99 EXP:12439 GP:3600 Weakness: Exploder	This is not a hard boss. Keep pounding it with magic and he will die. If you run out, attack with the whip and the sword.
	Kettle Kin's Statistics: HP:1230 MP:33 EXP:15555 GP:3360 Weakness: Dispel, Magic Absorb	This boss is essentially the same as Kilroy, so use the same tactics. Chances are, this enemy wont even get a hit in.
	Snap Dragon's Statistics: HP:1215 MP:6 EXP:19200 GP:12480 Weakness: Exploder	This little guy is basically the same as the Biting lizard, except now you have magic. Exploder seems effective, so use the Exploder spell and avoid letting the Snap Dragon hit you with its tongue.
	Hexas' Statistics: HP:3465 MP:69 EXP:20103 GP:14400 Weakness: Earth Slide	This is Fahna's true form, but she's not much of a fight. This boss tends to die quickly when Earth Slide is used. She has strong magic, so just use your own magic continuously, and you shouldn't have a problem with her.
	Mech Rider 3's Statistics: HP:4327 MP:38 EXP:21104 GP:16000 Weakness: Thunderbolt	This is Geshtar's true form, but he's not much harder than the other Mech Riders, except he uses Wall. If you have Dispell, use it. If not, weapons work fine too.
	Dragon Worm's Statistics: HP:3525 MP:99 EXP:24290 GP:17460 Weakness: Thunderbolt	This boss is just as annoying as the Great Viper, except this snake is much stronger. Thunderbolt works good, and make sure you have Medical Herbs because he will turn you into a midget.
	Snow Dragon's Statistics: HP:2800 MP:99 EXP:26588 GP:18360 Weakness: Exploder	This dragon will use ice magic, so naturally exploder will finish it off. That should be enough, but if you run out of magic (your in trouble ) use weapons. You would be wise to have Luna at a high level for MP absorb, as it will save you through the Pureland and the Mana Fortress. All in all, this guy is "snow" problem. Ahaha...
	Axe Beak's Statistics: HP:2800 MP:99 EXP:27784 GP:20400 Weakness: Freeze	This boss will be no problem especially if your Undine magic with the Sprite is at a high level. If it isn't, now is a good time to level it up.
	Red Dragon's Statistics: HP:3000 MP:99 EXP:29000 GP:21800 Weakness: Freeze	If you used Freeze on Axe Beak and leveled it up you will be thanking yourself now. Keep using freeze on this dragon and he will go down quick.
	Thunder Gigas' Statistics: HP:4462 MP:99 EXP:30277 GP:30600 Weakness: Earth Slide	This is, in my opinion, the hardest boss of the game. By now, your magic is probably dwindling along with your stash of Fairy Walnuts. If your Luna magic is at a high level, you can use MP drain in the Pureland and when you get to this guy you will have plenty of magic. If, not, you may be in trouble. This Gigas's magic is very powerful, and it may finish you off fast. If you find you cant beat him, leave the Pureland, heal, and then come back. You wont have to fight the bosses this time and when you get to the Thunder Gigas you will be ready to take him down.
	Blue Dragon's Statistics: HP:3200 MP:99 EXP:31570 GP:28560 Weakness: Earth Slide	This is just another easy dragon. Use Earth Slide and weapons and this guy will be history in no time at all.
	Buffy's Statistics: HP:4200 MP:99 EXP:35686 GP:22200 Weakness: Lucent Beam	Use the same tactics as you did on the vampire, except this time use Lucent beam on it. It will die quickly, and your Lumina magic will level up which will prove useful when you fight Thanatos.
	Dread Slime's Statistics: HP:5000 MP:99 EXP:37000 GP:26400 Weakness: Dark Force	Use dark force. Its that easy.
	Dark Lich's Statistics: HP:6666 MP:99 EXP: -- GP: -- Weakness: Lucent Beam	This is Thanatos's true form, and this boss is not a pushover. If your Lumina magic is not leveled up this guy will annihilate you. My tactics are to keep using Lucent Beam without stopping, and heal when the girl's magic runs out. Just make sure you don't give him a chance to attack. If you run out of magic, you are basically finished, as weapons wont really hurt him at all. Also, when he goes in the floor and his hands are on fire, a touch will kill you instantly. Make sure you stay away and use magic, and you should finish Thanatos off once and for all.
	Mana Beast's Statistics: HP:9999 MP:99 EXP:0 GP:0 Weakness: Revived Mana Sword	Use Simple tactics, as this battle is all a matter of timing. The only thing that will hurt the beast is the revived Mana Sword, so the trick is to revive it when you will have the most time to attack. I do this right before he swoops forward to attack. Once the sword is revived, just swing away. Watch your health as the Mana Beast uses a very high level Lucent Beam. Some hits can do up to 999 damage, proving the Mana Sword truly is the most powerful weapon in the game. Just attack and watch your health and you should be fine.
