Trails Of Cold Steel 3 Part 36 English 100% - Boss: Arianrhod & Stahlritter Knights

[@PhantomxDrive]

I love how they kept the music the same from Ao no Kiseki when Lloyd and the others fought her.

[@Rhovanion85]

Well, it IS her theme and all the games are connected. :) Also it feels nice and nostalgic to do it.

[@blueBruSea]

Talk about playing defense the whole time. Wasn't until the Stahlritter were gone could I even breathe. Thank you Principle!

[@tdk2343]

I whooped the Stahlritter easily and thought I would do the same to Arianrhod, but then she hit me with her s-craft and that changed things lol. Won the fight but barely.

It's funny seeing people be like "boy, the SSS sure had it harder against Arianrhod" when it's like...yeah, Lloyd is just a freaking cop. We can talk about gear and orbment set ups, but like, the crew here is very much heavily stacked in comparison (mind you). Not to mention that stuff like the ARCUS likely makes seems easier as well. (Now let's ignore hajimari no kiseki spoilers that could be used as a counter argument in Lloyd's favor)

I'm not trying to be a jackass but after beating Ao Arianhrod on Nightmare, this one seemed pathetically easy. Arianhrod's mask was a harder battle than this one, although I guess that can be explained away due to combat level differences between the Ao party and this one

I thought so too at first, but it became clear to me that Lianne was fighting as the human Lance Maiden; not as the immortal Steel Maiden empowered by the curse. "You're stronger than I was in my previous life." "Keep in mind. I'm more experienced now than you were back then..."

With Haruka Tomatsu bein' her other voice actress (without the cutesy high-pitched voice), it'd be a pleasant surprise.

Uh, nope? She is being a jokes character tho. Lol.

[@vDorgengoa]

Yes. But not the Steel Maiden. I'm not kidding.

[@brahmantyoihsan5938]

To be precise, Aurelia is stronger than Lianne Sandlot when she was the Lance Maiden of Eisenritter... ...which shouldn't come as a surprise, since the Lance Maiden was only 26 at the time of her death and thus had less experience than Aurelia, who was 32 by the time of this fight. Not saying that Aurelia was weak, but people keep forgetting that Arianrhod was literally one of the strongest characters in a series full of powerhouses, matched only by McBurn and Ein Selnate (and Loewe, had he lived to reach his full potential). Not to mention, Aurelia's teammates aren't exactly pushovers. Special mention goes to Rean and Gaius, whose ogre power and Stigmata is more than enough to tip the balance.

To be fair the allies are crazy strong, A dominion, a A rank Bracer, a future Divine Blade, f****** Aurelia (aka one of the strongest character in the series)+ Jusis and Milium (and at that point, almost all the old Class VII are average enforcer level)

[@LeonGun8]

To be even more precise you had an unfair advantage. As Arianrhod herself mentions AUrelia le Guin is stronger than she EVER was in her own prime. In other words, it was inevitable Aurelia, together with Rean and several high level warriors, could defeat the Stahlritter and bring Arianrhod down a few pegs. She still had enough strenght to spare however, you merely brought her to her knees. Basically, it's not that she was "nerfed" but just that the SSS were children when compared to Aurelia.

[@pite9]

​@@LeonGun8 The Steel Maiden was just patronizing her. There's no way that Aurelia is stronger than the Steel Maiden. Aurelia was about equal to Victor after his injury. Victor could only handle McBurn, so he was a bit weaker than or equal to McBurn before his injury. And McBurn admitted that he didn't stand a chance against the Steel Maiden. So the order of strength so far is Steel Maiden > McBurn >= CS2 Victor > Victor. Victor was about equal with Aurelia after his injury. Aurelia is like CS2 Victor at best. She's nowhere near the Steel Maiden in other words. What allowed them to win here was having a very solid team and wanting to win a lot more. Aurelia might be the strongest normal human in Erebonia. I'd definately put my money on Arios over her, and Victor is about equal, but Aurelia is certainly top 3. Then you have Sara who is a tier below, maybe 5-7th strongest. And then Rean maybe 10th or so. Rean is probably about equal to Duvalie, and Gaius is probably equal to the other 2 knights. The Steel Maiden wasn't really trying her hardest. She just kept up with Aurelia while Rean, Sara and Gaius destroyed her knights. Then they could gang up on the Steel Maiden. That's likely how the battle would have went. Ouroboros didn't have to win. What was most important was that they fired their opponents up, since that seems to be how they charge up their Aions. There are only 3 characters we know about in the series who at this time could maybe defeat the Steel Maiden. That's Carnelia, Arios and Cassius Bright.

[@vDorgengoa]

@@pite9 She beat Lianne... not Arianrhod. After the fight Aurelia says that was the pinnacle of her strength. Steel said beyond that was the power realm of the Great One. Back at Thors Aurelia speculates that Steel had another form that she didn't use .... her full power.
