I only think I got the Aeon Blade from that trader. Well, and some equipment for my other characters since that had such great equipment. I also fought Magus with Chrono, Frog, And Marle. This allowed me to heal my party when necessary by using Aura Whirl and Heal both on the same turn, but I could only hit him when his barrier was either Water or Lightning. That was really a decent tradeoff, but I still got killed a lot since he can damage the entire part with his magic. BUT, having him in your part is awesome! You can use any element, and that just makes it that much more fun.
Yeah, I almost did that, but I decided to do some grinding to get the Ruby Armor. (I was level 45 at that point anyway.) Honestly I liked the way that time travel is used in that quest.(You leave an object in the past to that it can gain power, and then go to the future.) But I wish that moon stone was stolen, instead of paying 9900 gold to get overpriced Jerky, and then giving it to someone in the past so that the Mayor would be generous, I could just kick the door down and force him to give me the moon stone. That's how I solve my problems in real life. It doesn't always pay off the best in the long run but there is no denying that it is an incredibly fun and satisfying short-term solution.
