===Right path, the factory===
On the factory side of things, search the room for chests, including one hidden in a passageway that seems to go nowhere, check out the conveyer belt to the south. Your goal will be to cross over it to the left, without bumping into any of the robots. If you touch a robot you'll have to go through a long series of fights before you get back where you started. I find it easiest to wait until a group of two robots has gone by than run as fast as I can until I reach an alcove. Keep making it all the way to the end, and you'll reach a new area where you'll fight some bugs. Cross a walkway, and go through the right door to learn the two codes which control the crane, {{snes|X}}{{snes|A}}, and {{snes|B}}{{snes|B}}. Go through the left one to reach the control panel, and enter the codes to open up a path to a new area and back to the start so you won't have to repeat the conveyer belt sequence. Head to the left and go through the door to pick up a bolt sword for Crono, and learn a password I could have told you anyway. Go back to the elevator and head out, and go down the other elevator this time to the lab.

Template:All Game Nav Chapter 7: The Factory Ruins (2300 A.D. first time)


The Factory

You'll need to pick Marle or Lucca to accompany Crono and Robo, I personally prefer Marle because she has the Aura spell.

Interact with the computer screen, Robo will disable the security laser so you can use the conveyor belt on the right, however you'll be forced to fight an acid. Just use slash or some non-physical technique to kill it. Three security robots patrol the front hallway, they will start moving if you get too close to them. After you've dealt with them or not, you can take the left or the right passage to the lab or the factory proper (this area is split into two main areas). You'll probably want to head into the factory first, although if you feel like cheating you could skip it all together.

Right path, the factory

  • Items:2xMid Ether, 1xRobin Bow, 2xEther, 1xMid Tonic, 400GP, 1xShelter, 1xBolt Sword

On the factory side of things, search the room for chests. The first one is hidden in a passageway just to the left (head down, left, then back up and climb the little ladder through the door), you'll find the Mid Ether in the top right corner (the room is L shaped). Check out the conveyer belt to the south; first climb down the left ladder and follow the path all the way to the left where you can grab the Robin Bow. Head back, then take the right ladder down to where the room is (DON'T GO IN IT). Your goal will be to cross over it to the left, without bumping into any of the robots. If you touch a robot you'll have to go through a long series of fights before you get back where you started. It's easiest to wait until a group of two robots has gone by than run as fast as you can until you reach an alcove. The second alcove has an Ether in a chest, also note that you'll probably have a close call when running on the conveyor belt. Keep making it all the way to the end and then head south to enter a new room.

You'll be forced to fight four Bugs. Afterwards, climb the ladder and head through the door into the main conveyor belt room. Cross the walkway and head to the far right corner for a Mid Tonic. Go through the right door then grab the two chests: you'll get 400GP and another Mid Ether. Interact with the computer to learn the two codes which control the crane, X ButtonA Button, and B ButtonB Button. After you end the dialogue, the two robots that were stored in the wall will burst out, and then criss cross about the room in a mirrored fashion. Wait until a gap opens, then run down and out unless you wish to fight them.

Head into the left door to reach the control panel for the crane (that claw thing suspended above the conveyor belt). Two Proto 3's will be patrolling, you can sneak by if you're patient but if you fight them you'll also have to fight two Debuggers. Grab the Shelter and another Ether before heading south to the control panel. Enter the codes you learned (one pair at a time) to move the barrels out of the way. This wll open up a path to a new area and back to the start so you won't have to repeat the conveyer belt sequence.

Exit back through the room (avoiding the Proto 3's if you wish) and then head down the ladder to the left. Run to the left and go through the door to the north. Pick up the Bolt Sword for Crono, then use the computer to learn the security password ZABIE. Go back to the elevator and head out, and go down the other elevator this time to the lab.

Left path, the lab

In the lab, kill the acid creatures to activate the computer and open the hatch to the next level. Head to another computer on the next level to deactivate the lasers, and fight off some more acid creatures, while picking up some helpful armor and weapons along the way. Head down another ladder or take the elevator to get to a computer that requires a password, "XABIE."

Regardless of whether or not you completed the factory portion of the place, you can just enter in the code "X Button-A Button-B Button-Y Button" to skip to the last part of the level. Robo will flip a switch and you'll need to escape the factory before it goes haywire. You'll eventually come to the long walkway with robots, and Robo's old buddies will beat him up and take his lunch money. Crono and whichever partner you picked will need to take on the six robots. Crono's Cyclone technique works well, and have the other partner heal or provide support. You'll rescue Robo and piece him back together with Lucca's help, before heading off together into a time gate.

Challenging Lavos

Impossible during this stage of the game since you have no access to a time gate.
