Growlanser: Heritage of War Colosseum/Secret Dungeon Guide Written by Black Genesis/Gamecoder Email: [email protected] ======================================================================== ---------------------------[INTRODUCTION]------------------------------- ======================================================================== Thank you for taking your time to read my guide and I hope that this guide can help you complete this game. This guide also contains spoiler so read at your own risk. Furthermore, this guide is based on my personal gameplay so there is a possibility that you can complete the quests in a different way. I included both the Colosseum and the Secret Dungeon in one guide because you need the Secret Dungeon in order to unlock everything in the Colosseum If you have any comments, suggestions, questions, strategies, or tips you want to share, please don't hesitate to email me. ======================================================================== --------------------------[VERSION HISTORY]----------------------------- ======================================================================== November 12, 2007 - Guide Completed December 02, 2007 - Added more information about the enemies: Soul and Gold Slime January 02, 2008 - Added more strategy in the guide March 03, 2008 - Added some stuff ======================================================================== ------------------------[THE COLOSSEUM GUIDE]--------------------------- ======================================================================== Just like any Growlanser games, Growlanser: Heritage of War has its own colosseum. The Colosseum won�t become accessible until later in the game (after mission 21 is completed). You can find it by speaking with the man behind the counter near the gate entrance to HQ inside the PMB Headquarters. You need to participate in the Colosseum if you want to get Haschen�s ultimate weapon <Longinus>, a special item <Rusted Holy Sword> for Krious� ultimate weapon <Geo Breaker>, and another outfit <Swimsuit> for Korin. This section lists the following matches that the Colosseum has to offer including the secret and bonus ones. Please note that you can only access the Colosseum if you have your characters with you. ----------- HARD HITTER ----------- Entry Fee: 3000 Mil Requirement: n/a Reward: Rusted Holy Sword (haven�t beaten Spell Slinger match) Longinus (have beaten Spell Slinger match) To win this match you have to score more than 844 dmg. There�s a lot of ways to do it. Here is my strategy... 704 ATK + Lv9 Attack Up + Lv9 Atrophy + Lv9 Berserk + Lv9 Inferno + Lv9 Critical Rate Up + Adamant Lance + M2 Amulet + M2 Amulet = 999 dmg My advise to you is to get the two M2 Amulets first before you do this. The M2 amulet can be won in the colosseum. I also recommend to raise your attack by using Life Apples. Life Apples can be dropped by enemies, can be bought in the secret dungeon, and can be won as a price in the colosseum. Lv9 Inferno can be gotten to other characters if they have their ultimate weapon (Fanille has one). You need to use a Transfer Charm (can be bought at the item shop in the PMB Headquarters) to transfer it to Haschen. If you don�t have one, then you can change Inferno for Fierce Strike. However, you need to raise your attack stat more. nonamyforme�s Strategy: well first thing I did was get my attack to 540 using life apples(may or may not matter)next I bought two 25% increase to attack accessorys (wisdom blade effect weapon)Casted attack up on my self before entering hard hitter and used fierce strike and hit any where between 850-970 ------------- SPELL SLINGER ------------- Entry Fee: 3000 Mil Requirement: n/a Reward: Rusted Holy Sword (haven�t beaten the Hard Hitter match) Longinus (have beaten Hard Hitter match) To win this match you have to score more than 446 dmg. There�s a lot of ways to do it. Here is my strategy... 542 INT + Lv9 Cycle Up (already casted before entering the match)+ Lv9 Spirit Aid + Lv9 Quick Cast + Lv9 Magic Up + Lv9 Thunderstorm + M2 Amulet + M2 Amulet = 636 dmg Use the same strategy for beating Hard Hitter. Some of these skills can be gotten from your party members. nonamyforme�s Strategy: required 2x m2 amulets and magic up knack I did this with the spell super sonic or what ever its called and magic up level 5 waited till it reached cast level 5 and let it go for 604 Damage KFCrispy's Strategy: I was able to complete it with only 310 INT, along with 2 Intelligent Up EX, Cycle Up lvl 9, and Super Sonic lvl 9. Cast Cycle Up lvl 9 before you enter then just get in range for Super Sonic lvl 9. You might want Quick Cast lvl 9 to finish in time, as I had it and there was some time left when I finished....this method requires no M2 Amulets whatsoever. I have yet to acquire an M2 :) This let me do 644 dmg. Oh btw for the spell slinger i probably used the Magic Up knack skill and it probably was only lvl 5 (though i know it does more damage at higher level) ------------ COPPER MATCH ------------ Entry Fee: 1200 Mil Requirement: n/a Reward: Lesson Coupon, 1800 Mil, Unlocks Silver Match Round 01: Lv1 Slime Lv2 Insector Round 02: Lv5 Imp Lv7 Horned Dingo Round 03: Lv9 Lizard Man Lv11 Will o� Wisp Round 04: Lv12 Puppet Golem Lv14 Werecat Round 05: Lv15 Rabidhura Lv16 Bone Golem Lv16 Skeleton An easy match ------------ SILVER MATCH ------------ Entry Fee: 2500 Mil Requirement: Clear Copper Match Reward: Dandy Book, 3750 Mil, Unlocks Gold Match Round 01: Lv16 Zombie Lv17 Spirit Round 02: Lv18 Boomshroom Lv18 Necromancer Round 03: Lv19 Diastripe Lv20 Devil Minion Round 04: Lv21 Dragon Lv22 Mutant Slime Round 05: Lv23 Demon Plant Lv25 Floater Lv25 Ghoul Another easy match ---------- GOLD MATCH ---------- Entry Fee: 6000 Mil Requirement: Clear Silver Match Reward: Ambrosia, 9000 Mil, Unlocks Platinum Match Round 01: Lv26 Spectre Lv27 Werepanther Round 02: Lv28 Evil Mage Lv29 Lizard Lord Round 03: Lv30 Giant Lv31 Poisoner Round 04: Lv32 Skull Knight Lv33 Dusk Drake Round 05: Lv34 Dread Magus Lv36 Gargoyle Lv37 Ruin Guard Yet another easy match -------------- PLATINUM MATCH -------------- Entry Fee: 10000 Mil Requirement: Clear Gold Match Reward: Mortal Blow, 15000 Mil Round 01: Lv38 Lesser Demon Lv38 Toxifier Round 02: Lv39 Bronze Golem Lv39 Elder Mech Round 03: Lv41 Troll Lv43 Iron Golem Round 04: Lv42 Demon Lv46 Lich Round 05: Lv47 Greater Demon Lv54 Arch Demon Lv55 Titan A normal match, make sure that you�re properly equipped and have support magic(Attack Up, Protect, Cycle Up) casted on you.

Mystery_Origin�s Tips: Normally you can not steal from coliseum match enemies, however there seems to be one exception. The unnamed members in the exhibition match (like the officers) can be stolen and I received Eclipse mirror from one of the officers. ---------------- MONSTER MASSACRE ---------------- Entry Fee: 3000 Mil Requirement: n/a Reward: Life Apple, Wisdom Apple, Gale Apple (You can choose the rewards based on how many enemies you killed) Cast Lv1 Blizzard or Flare to kill them fast. Try to kill them all to unlock a secret match. ------------------------- SLAYER CERTIFICATION EXAM ------------------------- You need to kill the screapers by yourself without using your Ultrasonic Aura. ---------- PAWN CLASS ---------- Entry Fee: 1000 Mil Requirement: n/a Reward: Dandy Book, Pawn Slayer Title, Unlocks Rook Class An easy match ---------- ROOK CLASS ---------- Entry Fee: 3000 Mil Requirement: Clear Pawn Class Reward: Lesson Coupon, Rook Slayer Title, Unlocks Knight Class Another easy match ------------ KNIGHT CLASS ------------ Entry Fee: 7500 Mil Requirement: Clear Rook Class Reward: Rana Fruit, Knight Slayer Title, Unlocks Bishop Class A normal match, make sure to bring some healing items ------------ BISHOP CLASS ------------ Entry Fee: 10000 Mil Requirement: Clear Knight Class Reward: Bishop Slayer Title, M2 Amulet(Unlimited) This is where you need to start to get serious. Make sure that you are properly equipped here, and bring a lot of healing items. You also need to cast support magic especially Cycle Up. In addition, make sure that you have some decent knacks like Fierce Strike, Impede etc. Furthermore make sure that you have support abilities like HP Regeneration, HP Drain, Hit Ratio Up and Critical Rate Up. When the battle starts, use up all your knacks. After you used all of them, switch on attack mode. Make sure that you still have your support magic, and recast them again after they disappeared. Sometimes the Bishop Screaper will cast Sonic Wave, make sure to stay away from it and use that time to heal or recast your support magic. Do this routine until you defeat it. Mystery_Origin�s Strategy: I find attack up far more important than cycle up, also delay down (the skill that reduces the amount of delay caused from an enemy attack) is also very helpful as oppose to hp drain since you probably can't deal more than 50 anyways even with fierce strike. Without adequate damage, the bishop screaper will heal 12 hp every once in a while, making the battle extremely difficult. nonamyforme�s Strategy: next for bishop same equipment and stats (need berserk knack lvl 9 and free knack level 9 for best results) cast attack up protect up cycle up all level 9 before entering match used fierce strike over and over until I ran out which is normally after 10 or so after your out of fierce strikes knack berserk and swing away he should be dead long before your buffs run out, rinse repeat can replace attack amulets with M2 amulets as you get them JoshuaBright�s Tips: You can sort of negate the 12 hp regen by having level 9 thorn aura, from Krious' ultimate armor. It does about 9 dmg at the same rate as the 12 hp heal. =+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+ If you cleared every match in the colosseum (even the secret and bonus battles) and killed every enemies, then you will become the champion of the Colosseum.

Reward: Swimsuit, Jagd Slayer Title Before you even attempt to do this, I suggest that you have your ultimate weapon and ultimate armor with you. The same strategy that you used to beat the Bishop can be applied here. ======================================================================== -----------------------------[SECRET DUNGEON]--------------------------- ======================================================================== To unlock this dungeon, you need to help the Dungeon Lady first to find the perfect well. You can start this quest after you completed Mission 33. You�ll need to speak with her and her sister at various places. 1. PMB Headquarters 2. Zerdok 3. Jaergen Village 4. Rio Rey 5. Felmentia 6. PMB Headquarters (the well inside the gate and become accessible after you completed Mission 38). 7. Rio Rey 8. Warslee Village 9. Toadhenge 10. Warslee Village 11. Warslee Village again Speak with the Dungeon Girl to get an access to the secret dungeon. Make sure that you bring a lot of healing and revival items before you attempt to go in because you can�t save your game. This dungeon has 11 floors, but each floor has the same structure. The only difference is that the entrance, exit, and chests are rearrange randomly. The first 10 floors have enemies, and each enemy�s level will increase by 1 every time you go down two floors. Lv60 - Lv64 Demon Lord Lv61 - Lv65 Mythril Golem Lv59 - Lv63 Samael Lv64 - Lv68 Soul (rare) Lv64 - Lv68 Gold Slime (rare) Mythril Golems can be killed by magic while the Demon Lords and Samaels can be killed by physical attacks. Please note that when you see a soul and a gold slime, make sure that you kill them to unlock two matches in the Colosseum. To kill a Soul, you need to use magic on it (Wind Edge is one of them). To kill a Gold Slime, use knack skills (Inferno will kill it in an instant if you have it). Once you reached 11th floor, you�ll be rewarded with seven chests. Six chests contain random items while the seventh chest contains an accessory item <Ivaldi>. The dungeon lady will also appear and you can buy some rare items from her. Elixir Vitae...... 14000 Mil Sleipnir�s Blood.. 4500 Mil Lucky Symbol...... 3250 Mil Alsiov�s Bell..... 8500 Mil Life Apple........ 1050 Mil Wisdom Apple...... 1050 Mil Gale Apple........ 1050 Mil Dandy Book........ 1300 Mil Blessing Bell..... 35000 Mil Secret Book....... 1000 Mil Book of Ramadus... 2500 Mil Transfer Charm.... 1000 Mil ======================================================================== ----------------------[FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS]---------------------- ======================================================================== Q. Hey your guide sucks. A. Well, this is my first time making one so I expect to get this kind of feedbacks. Q. Hey, you made a mistake on the prices for each rare item. They're supposed to be cheaper. A. Nope, not really. The reason why your prices are cheaper is because you have Korin's Bargaining ability leveled. It gives you discount in every shop including the Dungeon Lady. Q. How do I know that I became the champion of the Colosseum? A. You will receive two accessory items <Audrelir> and <Ivaldi> from the MC (announcer). Q. Is there any other benefits doing the Secret Dungeon? A. Well, nonamyforme can answer that for you. nonamyforme's Strategy: well after 3 hours of boredom Ive gotten 999999 cash and 999 in all major stats on 4 characters by following this strat(even with a wooden lance my main still has 999 atk just to brag a little :) yea I know this is overkill leveling this much, First you need to unlock the optional dungeon (secret dungeon) obviously second you need to equip 2x drop up on all characters thirdly teach every one thievery level 9 now pick two floors I prefer floor 9 and 10 and simply go up and down the stairs over and over on those two floors every time the floor changes even if back and forth every thing respawns and you get a chance of getting a golden slime after you have gotten 9 of every thing in the loot table they will only drop blessing bells and money, also it helps if you buy 9 lucky charms and use them on them as well. remember to steal every time you see one. you should get two or 3 blessing bells every kill after you cleared the rest of there loot table with a maximum of 5 per kill. hope that helps any one else trying to max out with blessing bells Q. Hey can I contribute something in your Guide? A. Yes you can as long as it hasn�t been mentioned yet in my Guide. ======================================================================== --------------------------------[LEGAL]--------------------------------- ======================================================================== This guide is copyrighted by me so do not distribute, reproduce, sell, copy, or post this FAQ without my permission.
