Guide to beating the Clerk, Manager, and Director bosses in super mario rpg 2023. Learn their stats, moves, and rewards, including 50, 60, and 70 experience respectively.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    First, defeat four Mad Mallets, each with 200 HP. They can be defeated in a single turn.
  2. 2
    The Clerk will then appear with two additional Mad Mallets. Ignore the Mad Mallets and focus attacks on the Clerk, as he can summon more if they are defeated.
  3. 3
    The Clerk has no weaknesses but can use Valor Up and Vigor Up. An all-out attack will defeat him in a couple of rounds.
  4. 4
    After the Clerk is defeated, Toad will appear to sell items before you proceed to the next area.
  5. 5
    In the next room, you will face the Manager and three Pounders. Use Bowser’s Terrorize ability to manage the Pounders. Alternatively, defeat all but one Pounder to reduce incoming damage and prevent the Manager from summoning more.
  6. 6
    The Manager uses Valor Up, Vigor Up, and Spritz Bomb, with Poison swapped out. He has 800 HP and no weaknesses. Target him directly to defeat him quickly.
  7. 7
    The final boss is the Director, who appears with four Poundettes, each having 150 HP.
  8. 8
    The Director hits harder than the previous bosses and has 1000 HP. The Poundettes can use Fear Hammer, inflicting Fear. If your party is afflicted with Fear, use Peach to heal them.
  9. 9
    Follow the same strategy as the Manager fight to defeat the Director.
