Combos (or Sound Battles) are a unique feature in the game "Mother 3". You have to press the A button in time with the beat of the music, and they can add bonus damage to the enemy. Here is how to master combos.

  1. How.com.vn English: Step 1 Set your frame skip to 0.
    The timing may go out of sync, and can mess up your combos. To do that, go to the "speed" section of your emulator and then select Frame Skip.
  2. How.com.vn English: Step 2 Listen to the music closely.
    Each music has a unique beat, and may either speed up or slow down, throwing you off.

  3. How.com.vn English: Step 3 Use Duster's Hypno-Pendulum or Kumatora's Hypnosis.
    This allows you to hear the enemy's "heartbeat", which tells you when to press the A button.
  4. How.com.vn English: Step 4 Take advantage over the Battle Memory.
    You receive this in Chapter Two and enables you to practice combos on encountered enemies. The only difference is the enemies won't attack you, and PP will be returned once you exit the battle.
  5. How.com.vn English: Step 5 If all else fails, restart your computer.
    Your computer may be overwhelmed from being run, and it may be a good idea to clear the temporary data.
