From Alvin Chapter 4.
Agria is a piece of cake; even easier than in the original Xillia, due to Leia's new artes and upgrades. It's Alvin that's the real threat here. His attacks have better range in general, despite being slow. Even his normals can stop a descending Eagle's Rage if he times it right. He occasionally gets Variable Trigger Happy(nod nod), which easily leads to game over =0\. He counters with Sonic Thrust and Tornado Drive; and the speed of the former and range of the latter guarantees massive damage, if not game over. Slap Iron Stance on top of that, and you have a pretty tough cookie to face.
Fortunately, when Agria and Alvin link, Alvin is always the slave. This leads to some easy hits off of Agria and/or Alvin, where I can potentially start a combo. Honestly, lots of luck was at play here; getting lucky Alvin didn't counter to my disadvantage, him using Guardian Field instead of Pulse Shot/Variable Trigger/Demon Fang/Abyssal Inferno, etc. I was really having fun playing the way I did, in such a casual way that led to some bad decisions.

Huh? Why upload a bunch of failure takes and make the winning one the backup!? Seems pretty stupid frubam...
Perhaps. Main thing was to have others understand where I truly wanted to go with this. Watching the rather straight-forward success run first would dwindle what to expect, or probably not be watched at all, lol. Plus I simply hate it )=01; its so lacking of variety or skill, and seems so cheap, it makes me sick. Knowing how it is, it kills any motivation to watch it.
In any case, it is easy to beat them if youre being efficient, but this aims to be on the stylish side, if you can call it that. Though there are numerous things that can take me out in this battle, there are three major things that are the biggest hindrance;
(a)Elemental resistance: this prevents stagger if an enemy comes upon me while Im attempting to stagger another, and use a move theyre resistant against. Happens most with Jiao and Rending Quake, but also happens with Presa and Crescent Flash regularly, which leads them running straight through the arte to attack me.
(b)Jiaos hurtbox: his vertical range is pretty high. Most enemies are normal height(Wing/Pre/Agr), so my natural style tends to stay low vs sending the enemy high. Even when catching an enemy off-guard, Jiao tends to come from behind with Wolf Strike, hitting me despite how high I am. This is also a problem since Leias hitbox expands when using certain attacks, giving him an easier area to hit.
(c)off-screen shenanigans: random Fireballs and Splashes basically. If Agria and I are on the same line, and Im in the air, unprepared, its game over.
Well, thats the biggest contenders. They cover each other pretty well, having various ranges and abilities, so many losses are attributed to them simply outwitting me, losing control of what I was doing, not paying attention, or wrongly anticipating what they were going to do.
Oh, and the HP is so low because Im at a really high level(went through entire Illusionary Darkness), and my STR is herb-boosted to break their Iron Stance easily. Having 6000HP with Iron Stance would pose little problem in dispatching these guys, but would seem cheap, since I always thought the opposite was true(i.e. me with no IS and them with it).")

Thisll probably be my last Zestiria upload for a while. Im sure people are tired of this game =01. Berserias demo is around the corner too. Making a balanced arena while considering both normal and armatization modes was simply too difficult for me to accomplish =01.
Since I didnt want the fight to be MA-spammable, I dont use Axcell, the +stagger skills or code, and only use 1x Mistiq. This gives some weight to the use of MAs where some discretion is needed if I want to get to the end of the fight.
You can TRY try this yourself if you have CE and the God Eater DLC(thats free, but needs to be installed), BUT the technique I used may prevent the Master Arena auto-Config code from working for you. Let me know if it doesnt. It might be TOO easy for some(if it even works) but its not made with max stats in mind.

Original cast levels like normal(except Regal)
Boss was a pain in the arse )=01. Not only is its mobility high, but its in the air, making Preseas attacks whiff or hard to hit it with. His Dread Storm arte, if he does it at close range, is a guaranteed guard break(hits = number of smoke-thingys you get hit by) and drain a huge amount of HP. Lots of losses occurred simply due to losing the battle of attrition in either HP or TP, and/or getting hit with Dread Storm point blank. Fortunately, she comes with Critical 1+2, and since criticals instantly break iron stance, this made it a much more capable fight. Destruction is the safest arte to use because of its both vert and hort range, but I take unsafe measures like aerial normals to speed up the fight.
