Amaze enemy line

The Amaze, Creeper, Spirit, Shadow Spirit, and Dark Spirit are enemies that are randomly battled in each game in the Golden Sun series. These monsters, resembling wispy sheet-ghost-like entities with disembodied hands, are palette swaps of each other that have differing levels of power and defense and are fought in different locations in the games.

Amaze (Sol Sanctum)
This early version of the Amaze is a level 2 variant with violet undertones. It appears in the deeper areas of Sol Sanctum in Golden Sun.

The enemies fought throughout Sol Sanctum are generally very easy and low-powered, though technically the Amaze is the strongest and most durable.

This first version of the Amaze has the following statistics:

This first version of the Amaze uses the following battle commands:

Amaze (Overworld)
This "main version" of the Amaze is a variant that is level 3 in Golden Sun and level 6 in Golden Sun: The Lost Age, also with with violet undertones. In Golden Sun, it is randomly encountered in the region of the overworld map in Angara encompassing Vale, Vault, Lunpa, and the entrance to Goma Cave. In The Lost Age, it can appear inside the Kandorean Temple.

In its appearances in both games, it is a "stock" monster that is not any better than other monsters and is quite quickly outclassed by monsters coming up.

This version of the Amaze has the following statistics:

This version of the Amaze uses the following battle commands:

Creeper
A Creeper is a variant that is level 8 in Golden Sun and level 12 in Golden Sun: The Lost Age, and it has light blue undertones. In Golden Sun it is randomly battled in the interior portions of Tret Tree. In The Lost Age it is battled in the interior portion of Air's Rock.

In its appearance in the first game, it is generally the best balanced and relatively high in stats among the monsters in Tret Tree, with the highest Attack stat and good HP and Agility stats. In The Lost Age, however, it is the weakest and easiest of the monsters that are battled all throughout the interior portion of Air's Rock. When battling Creepers, the only thing really needed to remember is that they might do a single Psynergy spell attack if not dispatched in the first turn of battle.

A Creeper's statistics are as follows:

A Creeper uses the following battle commands:

Spirit
A Spirit is a variant that is level 11 in Golden Sun and level 18 in Golden Sun: The Lost Age, and it has bright violet-red undertones. In Golden Sun it is first battled in Fuchin Falls Cave, and it subsequently appears in Mogall Forest and the overworld region of southeastern Angara that encompasses the exit to Mogall forest, the entrance to Lamakan Desert, and all the land in between. In The Lost Age it is first battled in the Gabomba Statue and later in the Gabomba Catacombs.

For when it first appears in Golden Sun, it is pretty solidly balanced among the monsters in Fuchin Falls Cave, but not quite as strong as the Bone Fighter and not as fast and hard-hitting as the Dirge, and it becomes quite weaker among the other monsters in later areas. In The Lost Age, however, it is the weakest and easiest of the monsters that are battled throughout Gabomba Statue and Gabomba Catacombs. Even if Spirits are able to cast their Psynergies, they should not be all that damaging.
