[EVENT] The Venus Colosseum [Sept 14 - Sept 21]

Well its definitely not all about one or the other but a good balance; entirely slow units will get overpowered by effects like Clocksprocket noted, while the speed doesn't do a huge difference for overall damage its good to have some fast units for killing blows and some subsequent damage so you won't end up in a too one-sided situation if something comes up.

I'm on the second East Arena set, #19 of 20, a 4* Armed Forces unit in my set, and I just got 29 BT points for it. Someone else can confirm what the 'normal' total for that is.

I just completed 14 on the 2nd East tower and got 24 points. I have zero AF characters.




I once kicked down part of the Tower of Bable; that was a hard day's work. >.<

I received both of the 4* units from the event and i am trying to decide what one what be better to level up and put on my team for doing the event. Livia with poison or Achillea with knockback. What do you guys/girls think?

I think Achillea is quite good if you need Ground attack with fast knockback, if not then I guess go with Livia - just decide what is missing in your team.

What do the brews even do? I have 3 large ones just sitting xD

Small damage boost to your units, I want to say around 20% boost; well the small ones at least give that much, haven't touched my larger brews.

Personally I'd go with Achillea.



I once kicked Achilles, it knocked him back quite a way.

Has anyone confirmed the point boost you get from AF units?

I have 5* Stefan and have leveled him to 50 so he's not worthless, but I can't tell if I'm actually getting a point benefit off of him.

It was so easy to rank high with a 5* DE, now I think I might need to take a day off so I can keep up with rankings on this event.

Not sure there is one. I'm getting the same (or roughly the same) points as a previous poster who has an AF unit.
For the 1st 3-4 levels in the S Tower I got 30 points; I guess he got the same since he and I both got 29 for the 19th level in 2nd East Tower.


I've punched every member of the A team; true story.

Is it worth using Alex for (Male) Atk boost if I'm using a full male team?

I'm not sure if you get a big point boost with AF units, but I did see a big bonus in damage from the AF unit himself. My Stef was below lvl 10 and was dealing about 40k damage per turn in the event. I think they also give a small boost to your other units as well as my Victoria does slightly more damage than her max.

Brews give bonus BT from what I can tell, I'm receiving ~120 for Large Brews while ~50 with smalls, without I get ~40 (Nearing 120 Victories), and for the Endless Arena it escalates each time but its definitely more.

Nope.
I haven't seen the attack plus activate in the 5 battles I did with her, and I double checked before and after and you're not getting any passive boost otherwise. My vote is NO, do not use attack boost units in the colosseum.

WOAH, I haven't noticed this while playing before but I'm on the Endless Arena and I got a message "A Boss Draws Near" and it had me select "Yes" or "No", I mean of course I selected yes, I'm not quite sure if I'm supposed to face a boss next but I just "fought" Alexander and gained 1200 BT.

I've confirmed my math, btw. Military set cards are doing 3x damage during the Colosseum compared to a similar card that's not from that set.

Wow, impressive.

Yeah, I have to update my BiS list.

Also I've found that the new Colosseum reward cards do NOT provide that bonus.
Achillea and Livia aren't worth using if you have a Christof. :/

I have seen Alex trigger Attack Boost in the arena as if it was Knockback or Slow or such, but it didn't make a humongous difference (or, at least, they triggered it and I still won handily). If you have Camille, use her, but you probably are already.

The PT bonuses for Victory Count appear to be consistently 30s, not 20s once past 30. I got one at 60 and did not get one at 80.

(Three PTs in a row that gave 2* cards, yay me.)

BTW, anyone else notice a couple of unreleased cards as opponents on the way through the 3* battles? Purple-hair pigtail archer named Morrigan and an opera singer named Avril.

I've seen Morrigan several times now, and Avril only once. Didn't know she was an Opera singer though. That's odd seeing how she has a sword and all. I also seen someone with a spear. Can't remember her name.

Camille is a guy.

I've seen attack boost activate, but I have no idea if it does anything (make other units attack stronger? don't know). Not as useful as knockback.

When a boss approached me in the endless arena it was Agrippina, but she took away like 30% of my HP per hit. =__=

attack boost has a marginal effect since it's on a trigger system.

I think its:
Area Attack/KB/Slow > Poison > Attack up

If you have low damage characters then Area attack is the best, but if you have a lot of 5*'s or 6*,s I think KB or Slow is actually just as good as Area attack (esp if you have fast aspeed 6*'s)

Poison kinda has a "Thorns" like effect... where the enemy loses health when they attack you.

Hi all.

Just wondering for those that are higher-up on the event scale, what's after Open Area? And how many more 'areas' do I have left before I can grind for exp/gold/BT points like how in Demon's Tower you could just keep climbing?

Thanks-

endless is all that's left

Endless, by definition, doesn't end.

As far as Endless goes, I am debating how and when to use my Potions therein. Much like DT, you can use one when you lose to continue with the enemy health bar depleted, but the rewards drop when you do, so it becomes a matter of wondering which bosses will be worth it.

Do they drop?

Agripinna gives 1500BT. Vlad 600BT.
