Gladius - Strategy Guide (Page 03)

Below are the cheat codes, hints and help for Gladius - Strategy Guide (Page 03).

You will start out at the opposite end of the arena from your enemies.  So
just make your way across to them and crush them.  Even though they are at Lv.
4, they are still pretty weak and you'll have no problem defeating them.


ONLY THE STRONG
Prize: 500D-750D
Fee: 500D
Required: From Imperia
My team: Valens, Ludo, Centurion, Centurion
Number of enemies: 4

Use the same strategy you've used against these guys in the previous battles.
They are at a higher level now, so make sure Valens and Ludo stay away from the
Barbarians and focus on killing the Berserkers.  Have your Centurions take care
of the Barbarians.


RETRIBUTION OF THE SWORD
Prize: 100D-1500D
Fee: 500D
Required: From Imperia
My team: Valens, Ludo, 2x Centurion
Enemies: 3x Barbarian

This time you will only face Barbarians, no Berserkers.  So have Valens and
Ludo team up to defeat one of them.  Your Centurions should be able to handle
a Barbarian by themselves.  Use Spear Attack and strong combos.  Sometimes the
Barbarians will transform into animals.  Remember the weight classes of
animals - bears are Heavy and wolves are Light, so use the appropriate
character when dealing with animals.
*******************************************************************************

When you've fought all the league battles you want, you can enter the
tournament.  Make sure you're equipped and prepared.  There are two rounds to
the tournament this time; one against Wolves and one against the Belfort team.

*******************************************************************************
BELFORT TOURNAMENT
Prize: 1000D-1700D
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------


BEAST MASTERY
Prize: 1000D-1500D
Fee: 1000D
Prohibited: Summoner, Undead Caster
My team: Valens, Ludo, 2x Centurion
Enemies: 2x Greater Wolf, 4x Wolf

This battle is just like The Fray, except much easier because the enemies are
only at Lv. 2-3.  Use the same strategy as The Fray.  Concentrate all your
attacks on one of the Greater Wolves (I would suggest taking the Lv. 3 one down
first).  Then two Wolves will enter the arena.  Valens and Ludo should be able
to handle them by themselves, while the Centurions start attacking the other
Greater Wolf.  After the Wolves are dead, have Valens and Ludo help them.  When
the second Greater Wolf is defeated, two more Wolves will come, so kill them
and you'll win.


BELFORT CONQUEST
Prize: 100D-1500D
Fee: 1000D
My team: Valens, Ludo, 2x Centurion
Enemies: Samnite, 2x Centurion, 2x Legionnaire

Once again, you only have to defeat the Centurions to win.  Take note of where
you place your characters.  Place a Centurion and either Valens or Ludo near
each enemy Centurion.  When the battle starts, just use combos and Spear Attack
and they will fall in no time.  You can also take advantage of the wall in the
back near one of the Centurions.  If you climb up on the wall, you can take
that Centurion down in one hit, probably.  Just ignore the Samnite and
Legionnaires.
*******************************************************************************

Now you've completed everything in Belfort, so head out to the world map.  Now,
there are four other towns you haven't visited yet: Orus, Cro Beska, Trikata,
and Syrna.  I would recommend going to Trikata first, because you will need a
badge from there to enter other leagues in other towns.  So follow the road to
the south and keep going until you reach the third turnoff.  This is Trikata.
Also, be aware that there are random battles on the world map.  You can greatly
decrease the number of random battles by walking on the roads.  The random
battles are normally pretty easy, but keep in mind that a character who dies in
a random battle will be dead forever, so be very careful and save before going
to the world map.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
TRIKATA                                                                  {VLI3}
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *SIDEQUEST* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
There is a sidequest you can do here in Trikata.  You will sometimes be able to
find a sidequest by talking to the shop owners in different towns.  Visit the
shop here, and talk to the owner.  Choose the third option when it asks you
what to talk about, and keep talking to her and she will eventually tell you
about someone who killed her brother.  She will ask you to kill him to avenge
her brother.  You have 7 days to find him.  He is located on the world map,
on the beach south of Trikata.  You can only encounter him at night.  When you
do encounter him, you'll have to fight one-on-one.  I would recommend using
your strongest Centurion or a Samnite if you have one.  When you defeat him,
take his sword back to the shop owner in Trikata, and she will give you a set
of good equipment - Teres Moles, Latticed Skirt, Iron Campana, and Ring of
Maritimus.  Now you can stop at the recruiting office or buy some new
equipment, then start doing some league battles.

PEOPLE'S LEAGUE OF TRITAKA
Badges required: None
Prize:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This is another league with completely random enemies.  You will find every
type of enemy you've encountered so far, and a few new ones - the Amazon and
Minotaur.  An Amazon is an archer that can charm your male characters, so
fighting at close range is effective.  A Minotaur is another type of Heavy
enemy, so use the same strategies as you would with Centurions or Samnites.


BATTLE OF THE PEOPLE I
Prize: 1500D-1650D
Fee: 500D
Prohibited: Summoner, Undead Caster
My team: Ludo, Centurion
Number of enemies: 2

There are only 2 enemies here and they are fairly weak.  Be sure to take a look
at your enemies and form your party accordingly, or reset until you get what
you want.  A couple of combos should take down your enemies.


BATTLE OF THE PEOPLE II
Prize: 1500D-1650D
Fee: 500D
Prohibited: Summoner, Undead Caster
My team: Valens, Ludo, 2x Centurion
Number of enemies: 4

This battle is similar to the last, but the teams have 4 members instead of 2.
The important thing in these battles is to take a look at your enemies before
you start, form your team according to your enemies' weaknesses, then place
your characters in the correct places on the map.  For example, put Ludo close
to a Bandit and put a Centurion next to a Murmillo.  Then you can have each of
your 4 team members fighting one enemy.


BATTLE OF THE PEOPLE III
Prize: 1500D-1650D
Fee: 500D
Prohibited: Summoner, Undead Caster
My team: Ludo, 2x Centurion
Number of enemies: 3

Again, take a look at your enemies, form your team accordingly, and place them
in effective spots in the arena.  Then you should have no problem taking down
your enemies.


BATTLE OF THE PEOPLE IV
Prize: 5000D-5050D
Fee: 500D
Prohibited: Summoner, Undead Caster
My team: Ludo, Centurion
Number of enemies: 4

This battle is insanely tough because you are outnumbered and outleveled by
your enemies.  The best thing you can do to win this battle is to restart over
and over until you get some easier opponents.  For example, if you plan on
using Ludo and a Centurion, restart until you get 2 Bandits and 2 Murmillos or
something close.  Then place Ludo next to the Bandits and the Centurion next to
the Murmillos if possible.  Then you should be able to use your combos and
special skills or affinity attacks to win.  This battle might take several
tries, even if you get the right enemies.  Don't worry, though; the next battle
is much easier.


BATTLE OF THE PEOPLE V
Prize: 3000D-3250D
Fee: 500D
Prohibited: Summoner, Undead Caster
My team: Ludo, Centurion
Number of enemies: 3

Just like the last battle, but there are only 3 opponents.  This makes things
a lot easier.  Make sure you use the same strategies as above; place your team
members close to enemies that they are strong against, then use your most
powerful skills.  If you managed to beat the last battle, this one will be a
breeze.
*******************************************************************************

*******************************************************************************
HAMMER OF JUSTICE
Badges required: None
Prize: 1000D-1300D, Hammer of Justice badge
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In this league, you're fighting against criminals to punish them.  Most of your
opponents will be Bandits, but you will occasionally run into an Imperial
Citizen, which are much easier.  You will also have to use Heavy characters
only (except for the first battle), so that will make things a little harder.


PRISONER'S APPEAL
Prize: 500D-750D
Fee: 250D
Required: 2 Heavy characters
My team: Valens, Ludo, Centurion, Samnite
Number of enemies: 4

You will probably be fighting 3 Bandits and 1 Imperial citizen in this fight,
but it varies a little.  This is the only battle in the league that lets you
use Medium characters, so take advantage of that.  Have Valens and Ludo go
after a Bandit each, and have your two Heavy characters go after the citizen
if there is one, and a Bandit.  Even though their levels are kind of high, they
don't pose much of a threat.


DEFAULT JUDGEMENT
Prize: 500D-750D
Fee: 250D
Required: Heavy
My team: Centurion, Centurion, Samnite
Enemies: 3x Bandit

You can actually have 4 characters, but I only had 3 Heavy characters at this
point.  There won't be any Imperial Citizens in this battle, so you'll be
fighting high-level Bandits.  Their evasion is very high against Heavy
characters, so you can't use attacks that don't have a swing meter with a
critical hit.  Stick to regular attacks and combos.  You can also use affinity
attacks if you build up your gauge.  Beware that the Bandits can use a skill
that petrifies Heavy characters.  This can be annoying, but the effect will
wear off in time or if you get attacked.


JUDGE'S ORDERS
Prize: 500D-750D
Fee: 200D
Required: Heavy
My team: Centurion, Samnite
Enemies: 3x Bandit

Like the last battle, except the enemies are a little weaker and you only have
2 characters.  Since you're outnumbered, team up on one of the Bandits first
and take care of him.  Then you can each go after one Bandit and take them out
just like you did in the last battle.


NOLO CONTENDERE
Prize: 500D-750D
Fee: 175D
Required: Heavy
My team: 2x Centurion, Samnite
Number of enemies: 3

You will probably be fighting 2 Bandits and one Imperial Citizen here.  Their
levels can be pretty high, and they can kill a team member if they surround
him.  Take care of the Bandits first and then kill the citizen.  I would
suggest killing both the Bandits at the same time, teaming up against them.
When they're gone, kill the citizen.


VOIR DIRE
Prize: 500D-750D
Fee: 150D
Required: Heavy
My team: Centurion, Samnite
Enemies: 3x Bandit

You're outnumbered again, so have your characters stick close together and kill
the Bandits one at a time.  Be careful of their petrification attack.  And be
sure to use only critical hits, or your attacks will miss.  Since they are at
lower levels this time, you shouldn't have much of a problem.
*******************************************************************************

*******************************************************************************
LEAGUES BELLATUS
Badges required: None
Prize: 5000D-5050D
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This league consists of 6 one-on-one battles; 2 with each weight class.  One
battle is against the same weight class and one battle is against their
weakness.  If you're like me and used a lot of Centurions and not many Light
characters, the Light character battles might be tough.  Be sure to buy the
best weapons and armor for the characters you're going to use.


BELLATUS HEAVY
Prize: 3000D-3250D
Fee: 300D
Required: Heavy
My team: Centurion
Enemies: 1 Heavy enemy

This match is Heavy vs. Heavy.  I would recommend having a Centurion and just
keep using Spear Attack.  The enemy might use combos against you, but if you
just keep using Spear Attack you will probably win.  Combos are also effective.


BELLATUS HEAVY CHALLENGE
Prize: 500D-750D
Fee: 300D
Required: Heavy
My team: Centurion
Enemies: 1 Light enemy

This match can be difficult.  You can't use Spear Attack this time, because it
will miss.  The only thing you can count on is critical hits, so you have to
get the swing meter just right.  I had my Centurion start out by using Roam and
getting a critical hit.  Then you don't really have a choice except to use
combos and get the critical hits every time.  Watch out for your enemy using
Surprise Attack, which will probably deal a good bit of damage.


BELLATUS LIGHT
Prize: 3000D-3250D
Fee: 300D
Required: Light
My team: Secutor
Enemies: 1 Heavy enemy

This battle can be pretty hard.  First, wait for your enemy to come into your
range, then run up to him and use Running Attack with a critical hit.  On your
next turn, use Sand Toss to get more turns in.  Then use Surprise Attack if you
have it.  If not, keep using Running Attack.  If you just use Surprise Attack
and Running Attack, you'll win.  Make sure your equipment is good, and you have
a shield.


BELLATUS LIGHT CHALLENGE
Prize: 500D-700D
Fee: 300D
Required: Light
My team: Secutor
Enemies: 1 Medium enemy

This battle is actually easier than the last, I think, because this time there
is a crate you can stand on.  So quickly get on top of the crate and wait for
your enemy.  The use Sand Toss, followed by Surprise Attack.  It will probably
take 3 Surprise Attacks to win.


BELLATUS MIDWEIGHT
Prize: 3000D-3250D
Fee: 300D
Required: Medium
My team: Ludo
Enemies: 1 Light enemy

Very easy battle.  Wait for your enemy to come in range, then use a couple of
3-hit combos to win.


MIDWEIGHT CHALLENGE
Prize: 500D-700D
Fee: 300D
Required: Medium
My team: Ludo
Enemies: 1 Heavy enemy

Before you start the battle, place your character on top of the crate, which is
the bottom-left spot available.  Since you're on a tall crate, you have a big
advantage.  Wait for your enemy to come in range, then use two 3-hit combos.
That will probably get his HP pretty low.  You can then use regular attacks or
an affinity attack to finish the job.
*******************************************************************************

*******************************************************************************
SURVIVE TRIKATA
Badges required: None
Prize: 2000D-2500D, Gift of Perseverance badge
Fee: 700D
Required: Medium
My team: Ludo
Enemies: 4x Bandit, Murmillo, Ogre
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This league consists of 4 consecutive battles.  This means you have to defeat
all the enemies without being healed between rounds.  You have to use a Medium
character, so go with either Valens or Ludo.  Make sure you have a good combo.
The 3-hit combo will work best.  And make sure that you have the best possible
equipment.  Note that you only have to beat the first 3 rounds to beat the
league, so it's okay if you just can't beat the last round.

Round 1: 2x Bandit

Hopefully, you will get a Lv. 2 and a Lv. 3 Bandit here.  If not, you can
reset.  Wait for them to come to you, don't move to attack them.  You will be
able to take them down with 1 or 2 combos.  If you use the 3 hit combo, it will
do good damage, maybe kill them, and you can use it twice in a row for 3 skill
points each.  If you get lucky, you can defeat both of them with 2 combos.

Round 2: 2x Bandit

This round is exactly like the last one.  Use your 2 combos, then attack to
finish them off if need be.

Round 3: Murmillo

Start the battle by passing.  The Murmillo will then move within attacking
range.  Move forward and attack him once.  Then use 2 combos on your next turn
and you should kill him.  Watch out for a move that reduces your speed; that
can be bad.  Also watch out for combos.  Try to bring him down as fast as you
can.  If you're doing good, you should still have more than half of your HP.

Round 4: Ogre

Wait for him to move within attacking range, then move up and attack him once.
Two combos might finish him off if you get critical hits on all of them.  If
not, another attack or affinity attack should do the trick.  The key to winning
this battle is just to have enough HP left after the first 3 battles.

BLOODY HALO FINALS I
Prize: 2000D-6000D
Fee: 2000D
Prohibited: Summoner, Undead Caster
My team: Valens, Ludo, Centurion, Samnite
Number of enemies: 4

The enemies in this battle are completely random.  Examine your enemies before
the battle starts and restart if you want.  The battle is pretty easy if you
use the right characters and your enemies aren't too hard.  Just use the
standard strategies to win.


BLOODY HALO FINALS II
Prize: 2000D-6000D
Fee: 2000D
My team: Valens, Ludo, 2x Centurion, Samnite
Number of enemies: 5

Again, the enemies here are somewhat random.  You'll probably have a Centurion,
a couple of Legionnaires, and some other random enemies.  The annoying thing
about these battles is that there are huge crates everywhere, which split your
team into two groups.  So be sure to look at your enemies' placement ahead of
time and place your team members accordingly.  In the inside area of the
crates, have two people stand next to the entrance so they can attack whoever
tries to come in.  I had Valens and a Samnite blocking the entrance and
attacking, and a Centurion attacking diagonally with Spear Attack.  This way,
your enemies will go down easily.  On the other side of the crates, just use
your most powerful attacks and bring down the enemies like you normally do.
*******************************************************************************

Now you're done in Trikata.  You may want to stop off at the recruiting center
and get a new team member, like a Channeler if there is one.  Then, head off to
the world map.  The next town you need a badge from is Syrna, which is located
just to the west of Trikata.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SYRNA                                                                    {VLI4}
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The first thing you need to do is stop of at the recruiting center and make
sure you have at least 3 female gladiators in your school.  I would recommend
having a Centurion/Samnite, Legionnaire/Murmillo, and a Channeler.  You will
need them because the next league, Spirit of the Valkyrie, is a female-only
league.

*******************************************************************************
SPIRIT OF THE VALKYRIE
Badges required: None
Prize: 6000D-6500D, Honor of the Valkyrie badge, Leather Bikini, Amazon's
       Bracelet
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This is a female-only league.  You will need 3 or 4 female gladiators on your
team for these battles.  Also note that some of the battles have randomly
selected enemies.


EYES OF THE VALKYRIE
Prize: 1500D-1650D
Fee: 1000D
Required: Female
My team: Centurion, Murmillo, Channeler
Number of enemies: 3

The enemies in this battle are randomly selected, so you can restart and get
the easy ones if you want.  You should know how to defeat the enemies with your
Centurion, so I'll go over the strategies for using a Murmillo and Channeler.

Murmillo: These are similar to Legionnaires.  They are Medium-weight characters
          and are effective against Light characters.  They have two good
          skills that you should have now: Gut Basher, which lowers the enemy's
          speed and does damage, and Throw Shield, which does a lot of damage.

Channeler: Channelers are physically weak, but they have excellent affinity
           skills.  Their weapons have a lot of affinity charge as well.  One
           attack will fill up 20 points (one circle) on your affinity gauge.
           If you recruited one at Lv. 5, she will have a lot of decent
           affinity skills.  So attack once or twice, then use an affinity
           attack.  You can also use Steal Affinity to take another character's
           affinity charge.  Tornado is a skill that rearranges the position of
           all the characters in its range, and it's useful in a tight spot.

So use Throw Shield or attack with your Murmillo, have your Centurion use Spear
Attack or attack normally, and have your Channeler use affinity attacks.


FISTS OF THE VALKYRIE
Prize: 1500D-1650D
Fee: 1000D
Required: Female
My team: Centurion, Murmillo, Channeler
Enemies: 3x Amazon

The Amazons will start off on the upper level, shooting at you down below.  So
quickly get to the upper level so you can attack them.  Their attacks are not
particularly powerful, but they are pretty fast.  Have a Legionnaire or a
Murmillo take care of one of them.  Have your Channeler and Centurion take the
other two out.  One thing you need to be careful of is the Amazons' poison
arrow attack, which can inflict Poison on your characters.  This will lower
their HP every turn, but will wear off in time.


CUNNING OF THE VALKYRIE
Prize: 1500D-1650D
Fee: 1000D
Required: Female
My team: Centurion, Murmillo, Channeler
Number of enemies: 3

Again, the enemies are random so you can restart and get the enemies you want.
This battle is pretty much the same as the first, but the enemies are a little
stronger.  Also, there are crates scattered around the arena, so get on top of
them if you can.  Use the same strategy as in the first battle.


FORCE OF THE VALKYRIE
Prize: 1000D-1300D
Fee: 1000D
Required: Female
My team: Centurion, Murmillo, Channeler
Enemies: 4x Amazon

More Amazons, this time at a higher level.  However, you can start out closer
to them this time so they aren't sniping at you while you climb up to them.
Defeat them the same way you did in the second battle.  Use affinity attacks
with your Channeler (Sleet is good because it will freeze them for a turn).
Have your Centurion attack normally, or use Spear Attack from behind.  Have
your Murmillo use Throw Shield or a Legionnaire use combos.  Use the crates to
your advantage, too.  This battle is not much tougher than the second one.


HEART OF THE VALKYRIE
Prize: 1000D-1100D
Fee: 1000D
Required: Female
My team: Centurion, Murmillo, Channeler
Number of enemies: 4

Note that you can have 4 team members here, but I only had 3 females in my
school.  Take a look at your enemies and restart if you want better ones.  Make
sure to place your team members effectively at the start of the battle.  Use
the same strategies as the first and third battle.  I managed to beat this
battle with 3 characters fairly easily, so it will be even easier with 4.
*******************************************************************************

CIVILIS ANTIQUITIS
Badges required: None
Prize: 1500D-1650D
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Most of the battles in this league have randomly selected enemies.  Most of
them are Legionnaires, Centurions, and Samnites, but you can run into just
about every type of enemy you've seen so far.


VERSUS CULTUS OCULARIS
Prize: 1500D-1650D
Fee: 500D
Prohibited: Summoner, Undead Caster
My team: Valens, Ludo, 2x Centurion, Samnite
Number of enemies: 5

Take a look at your enemies before the battle starts and reset if you like, to
get easier enemies.  Place the characters effectively on the map before the
battle starts.  The numbers are even, so have each person kill one enemy.


VERSUS FEMINA FORMOSOS
Prize: 1500D-1650D
Fee: 500D
Prohibited: Summoner, Undead Caster
My team: Ludo, Centurion, Samnite
Number of enemies: 3

Even though the battle is called "Femina Formosos", you will encounter males
and females in this match.  So bring whoever you want into battle.  This is
pretty much the same as the last battle, but with smaller teams.


VERSUS CLARIOS' AVENGERS
Prize: 1500D-1650D
Fee: 500D
Prohibited: Summoner, Undead Caster
My team: Valens, Centurion, Samnite
Number of enemies: 3

Pretty much the same as the last two battles.  Just use the same strategy as
before.


VERSUS HERALDS OF CERTO
Prize: 1500D-1650D
Fee: 500D
Prohibited: Summoner, Undead Caster
My team: Valens, Ludo, Centurion, Samnite
Number of enemies: 4

The same as the last few battles, but with teams of 4.  Use the same strategies
as with the last battles.


VERSUS SCHOOL OF ANTONIO
Prize: 1500D-1650D
Fee: 500D
Prohibited: Summoner, Undead Caster
My team: Samnite, Centurion, Murmillo
Enemies: 5x Amazon

Another Amazon battle, but this time you have the option of using male
characters.  I strongly recommend you take as many female characters as you
can.  Amazons can immobilize and stun your male characters, which will put you
at a great disadvantage with only 3 characters.  Go after the Amazons one or
two at a time, and have your team stick together.  They will be shooting you a
lot at first, but they aren't that strong.  So just stick together and kill
them one at a time; don't have each character go after one of them.  Also, if
you do have a male character that gets stunned or rooted, the effect will wear
off after a while or after you kill the enemy who inflicted it.


VERSUS BRUTUS FERINUS
Prize: 1500D-1650D
Fee: 500D
Prohibited: Summoner, Undead Caster
My team: Valens, Ludo, Centurion, Samnite
Number of enemies: 4

The same as most of the other battles in this league.  The enemies are at a
higher level this time, though.  So you may want to team up and take them out
one or two at a time instead of having each character kill one enemy.

TRIBUNAL OF BRUTALITY
Badges required: Hammer of Justice badge
Prize: 2000D-2200D, Justice of Syrna badge
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This is another endurance league.  You have to fight all 5 waves of enemies in
a row, without healing.  The enemies are mostly Bandits, with some Citizens
and a couple of Channelers.  I used a team of Valens, Ludo, a Murmillo, and a
Samnite.  Medium characters are best here because almost all of your enemies
are Light.

First Circuit: 3x Bandit

Your Medium characters should each go after one Bandit.  Try to minimize the
damage you take, because you have to last for 5 rounds.  Combos work well here,
as well as Throw Shield if you're using a Murmillo.  Also, there are crates in
the arena for the whole league, so you can stand on them if you want.

Second Circuit: 3 enemies

The Citizens are incredibly weak.  One Medium character can take down a Citizen
with one short combo.  Have your other characters go after the Bandits or
any other enemies left.

Third Circuit: 2 enemies

Only two enemies here.  Have two characters attack each one and you will be
done in no time.

Fourth Circuit: 3 enemies

Have Valens and Ludo kill any Bandits, and have your other characters kill the
other enemies.  Their levels are pretty low, so you should have no trouble.

Final Circuit: 3x Bandit

You should still have a good portion of your HP left here.  Sometimes the
Bandit will use Running Attack and do some decent damage, but you should still
survive this round.  Just take them down quickly using combos.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I really, really hate this league because you have to have a certain affinity
to enter the battles.  So you will probably only have 2 characters for each
affinity.  And these battles are hard if you only have 2 characters.  If you
need to, equip someone with a different weapon that has the affinity you
need.  If you don't have a weapon of a certain affinity, you can go to Cro
Beska to buy weapons of all 4 affinities.  You might just want to do 2 of these
battles, which is all you need to win the league, so you don't have to switch
everyone's weapons around and buy new ones.


AERIS VERSUS EXURO
Prize: Rigid Circlet
Fee: 1500D
Required: Air Affinity
Team: 1-3 members
Enemies: 3 enemies (either Samnite, Bandit, or Secutor)

This one isn't that hard if you have at least 2 characters, especially if they
are Medium weight.  You can restart to get the enemies you want, then start the
battle.  If you only have 2 characters, stick together and take the enemies out
one at a time to avoid them ganging up on one of your characters.


SOLUM VERSUS MARITIMUS
Prize: 1000D-1500D
Fee: 1500D
Required: Earth Affinity
Team: 1-3 members
Enemies: 5 enemies (Peltast, Murmillo, or Minotaur)

If you don't have 3 Earth affinity characters, I would recommend skipping this
battle because there are 5 enemies.  Some of the enemies will be at Lv. 1 and
the others will be at Lv. 5.  So if you have 3 characters, stick together and
take out the Lv. 5 enemies first.  Then take out the Lv. 1 enemies.


EXURO VERSUS AERIS
Prize: 1000D-1500D
Fee: 1500D
Required: Fire Affinity
Team: 1-3 members
Enemies: 4 enemies (Bandit, Secutor, or Peltast)

Again, if you only have 2 characters, you may want to skip this battle.  Medium
characters are good here against Bandits and Secutors, so if you have a Medium
character, use combos against them to kill them.  Again, stick together so they
can't kill you as easily.


MARITIMUS VERSUS SOLUM
Prize: 1000D-1500D
Fee: 1500D
Required: Water Affinity
Team: 1-3 members
Enemies: 2 enemies (Centurion, Peltast, Bandit, or Secutor)
