The Legend of Heroes: Trails to Azure: Arianrhod (Nightmare)

[@PerhapsTheMost]

One of the hardest fights in the franchise for sure. Especially in the second phase. Trails always has those moments where you have to guess when the boss will S-Break. In the modern ones they usually go in enhance state, but the older ones like Azure was just intuition lol.

[@Nel_Annette]

Yeah, I've been playing Reverie this month and it's waaaay too easy to protect yourself from the S-Breaks now. Everything is so telegraphed.

[@KUROI6969]

​@@Nel_Annetteidk man since coldsteel the game become more easier..

[@PWLfr]

I wish they had actual S-breaks just like you, acting in the next turn on a critical

[@Mintcar923]

Yeah I’m freaking out lol I’m a veteran of the series and I can’t even seem to get close to beating her even on default.. She can one hit you any time she wants.. Taking a little break from Reverie to catch up on the earlier ones because I was stuck on that last divine knight battle.. Thought this one would be a little easier.. Guess I was mistaken..

[@YogaProject-qz1cq]

Not really, while enemy usually go enhanced states, this time, enemy boss sometimes ignore the evade tank and sometimes charge your art caster, If you play reverie in floor 7, where boss is wazy, gaius and thomas, i send lloyd to front and suction 3 boss away from caster, wazy and gaius busy attacking llyod to be expected, but thomas sometimes throw a box craft into one of my caster dealing 60k to 70k which is instant death

Arianrhod... The Argent Awakener... Awakener of Divine Knight Argreion.

[@shoumatsu7]

Great strategy, can't wait to try it in my Azure rerun

[@linuxwizzerd5908]

put Pixie on Wazy Akashic Arm is magical, has a ridiculous base damage and is affected by ATS up

[@boredbox]

My favorite boss fight theme along with Silver Will

[@linuxwizzerd5908]

personally at this point in the game I like Lloyd with Wing better partly to prevent any ailments on him, and partly because STR up isn't going to do much of anything against bosses but mostly to pull out the funny magic damage buff to make Akashic Arm even more silly also big rip to no Rixia, she's incredibly based with Magius and makes for a very competent mixed attacker

[@davidtimmer596]

Sad that these games never got dubbed. I would've loved to hear Cherami Leigh voice Arianrhod again.

[@defaultname0]

I beat her in Hard. I spam adamantine guard and reflect. Abused Randy s craft. Took a while but I managed to do it. Cant even imagine doing it in nightmare

[@Himmelschenk]

Arianrhod.... I kneel

[@aubeary190]

Tbh kind of surprising ppl say it’s hard cuz I remember beating it first try with evasion strats. The Sigmund fight was way more annoying cuz of the time limit

[@Lordkeepg]

I'm on the side. Sigmund was really easy. It took me tops 2.30. But this one, kill me a couple of times before I can even do a single thing. Her s-break is an insta kill no matter where you are.

[@Stake2]

It was a tough fight but I struggled with Mariabell a lot more on "Hard" diffuculty.

[@ReyKaf]

Didn't try it in Nightmare. It was very difficult for me even in easy

[@misterbin00]

It's easy in nightmare as much as easy if you cheese it like this video... But otherwise...Yeah, all hell breaks loose.

[@Cyzure]

I couldn't win even on an easier difficulty, said F it and am looking up how to win/the after cutscene. I literally have stopped playing this game for a week plus just because this fight, I don't want to concede defeat and continue the story.

[@BlackHazama]

I beat her on Hard and it wasn’t easy either, even with the right builds. Hope you were able to beat her finally. Lmk if you need help

[@horn5558]

how the hell in 2nd phase are arts doing 1k damage. Ive buffed everyone etc. and every attack i do to her is 1 damage

[@YogaProject-qz1cq]

Use spark dyne, it is a single most powerrfull spell with lowest mana cost since it only atk 1 person. But what i dont understand why arianrhod here so slow, iirc, she move 2-3 times in a row, but here, they keep spamming spells
