During boss battles, various characters from the Neptunia series will block your path, starting with Arfoire. Additionally, heroines of the past that have turned to Chaos by way of Chaos Energy may also appear as bosses.
■ Defeat the Bosses
Boss battles are different from standard battles. Boss characters will block the player’s path.
The basic rules are the same as a standard battle—advance to the boss’ location and reduce their HP to zero to win.
However, a boss character’s actions are nothing but troublesome. Overcome their fierce attacks in order to attain victory.
Powerful Extra Skills
With each turn that passes, the boss’ EX Gauge (Extra Gauge) will increase by one. When the EX Gauge is filled, the boss will unleash a special move called an “Extra Skill.”
The boss’ standard attack is a linear attack that targets and fires at your lifeline. If you have characters on the field in the path of a linear attack’s progression, they’ll receive damage from the attack instead of your lifeline.
—Subordinates
Boss characters can dispatch “subordinate” characters that obstruct your progression towards the boss and continue to appear as long as the boss has Mana. Repel the subordinates and make your way under the boss!
Nep-Nep Connect: Chaos Chanpuru is due out for PS Vita as a free-to-play title in Japan in 2017.
