Post-game questions.

1. Monster Jewel. Are decent effects that i can get from them? All the ones i currently have 100% are rubbish.
2. What level should I be when doing Cave of the Seven Stars?
3. What level should I be for completing the colloseum? I trying to get the 3 achievements for it, but only have 1 so far.
4. Any good training spots? I was thinking Seven Stars, but they are quite tough for me at the moment.

FYI, My team are around the 55-60 spot and I am using Edge, Bacchus, Sarah and Arumat, but i might switch Bacchus for Reimi soon.

1. Ashlay Jewel. It will take some time (and effort) to get 100% data, but it will be worth it - his jewel gives you an extra attack.

2. I'd recommend 70, but good equipment and powerful specials are more important.

3. If you're trying to complete solo, Reimi will work wonders at your levels (regular attacks will take care of the first 60 or so rounds, and then you can spam Crescent Wings/Sonic Thorn/Crimson Squall and Savage Sparrows if you have it). If you're doing the group competition, be aware that Ashlay is in the final round, and will rip you a new one if you are not careful. He's also an enemy in survival, so be at a decent enough level (100+) with good equipment and strategy.

4. Seven Stars. Yes, I know it's tough, but the skeletal enemies aren't that hard to beat ('cause they are slow and weak against fire - Trinity Blaze is your friend). Go in with EXP + accessories (at least EXP +90% for each character). I started at level 70, and ended at level 150. If you REALLY hate it, you can always try the Palace of Creation.


In case you're wondering about Ashlay, he's strong, fast and chains like a madman. The best thing would be to distract him with Arumat, Bacchus or Meracle (all of them have ground-based evasive B moves) while Reimi and your mages blast him from afar (Reimi, Sarah and Myuria work wonders in this battle). If you plan to blindside, use Meracle - she's invincible during her blindside animation, and Ashlay tends to use a shockwave attack to knock you out of the blindside. Follow up with X Claw to juggle him.

Oh, and if he goes into Rush Mode, FLEE. Let him chase you around (don't run - slide or cartwheel away) until it wears off, or you will experience defeat. Not even No Guard is enough to protect you from being stunlocked by his moves.



Hope this helped.

That really helps a lot.
Thank you.
