Title: The Mystery of the Black Nu in CT DS
Post by: Dark Serge on November 16, 2008, 02:46:10 pm: Has anyone noticed the strange Black Nu in the TGS2008 trailer on the Japanese Chrono website? It appears in the new content of the trailer.

If you watch any of the videos showing the Arena of Ages you'll see some of the enemies in other color palettes...then again, this thing is on a bridge, not in the arena...

I also saw a some strange purple enemy and a yellow ogre in there...this video is full of good stuff.

Has it always been there? :shock:

yep, as far back as the snes version. It's not always there, its a chance or triggered thing, but if you try to engage him alone, he just keeps running. If you engage one of the other enemies in the forest when he's close to that group, he'll be a part of that battle.

Post by: Eket on November 22, 2008, 01:04:48 pm: Isn't that part of the lost sanctum quests? Apparently one of the bosses you fight during it, is a black nu. I can't confirm this though, just something i read somewhere ^^;

Post by: mav on November 22, 2008, 02:32:36 pm: Makes sense, but does that gold Ogre have something to do with that Golden Hammer side quest?

Front, actually. He should practically be there as soon as you walk in. Just don't get ambushed by Nagas hiding in the trees.

Post by: Prince Janus on November 22, 2008, 04:06:31 pm: Yeah, he should be coming out of a bush.
