In the Nintendo DS version, the Attack Node poses a large threat with its '''Laser Barrage''' attack. The Defense Node should be the last one to be defeated. Also, in this version the Defense Node absorbs nearly all elemental damage. Rydia should use Titan once the CPU and Attack Node are destroyed, as none of her other attacks at this point will be effective.
