When you have completed 'Chronicles of the Sword' save the game file and it will be marked with a blue unicorn icon which means that when you start a new game with this file you will have ALL the EXP you acquired in the game.
Here is Siegfried's Night Terror Path. For weapons, I recommend either the Faust or Soul Calibur, because Faust can break guard and Soul Calibur can heal health. Don't lose a single fight, or it won't work.
Story 1
Stage - Old Toledo
Opponent - Swordsman
Seek strength in order to destroy Soul Edge.
Story 2
Stage - Lakeside Coliseum (cage)
Opponent - Rock
Story 3
Input - -> to avoid giant clock
Stage - Clock Tower
Opponent - Zasalamel.
Ignore the man with the scythe.
Focus on the cursed sword.
Story 4
Stage - Proving Grounds
Opponent - Kilik
If you decide to stop...
Stage - Proving Grounds
Opponent - Shadow Master
Story 5
Input - G/X
Hey! It's me again. I'm going to tell you how to make Death. You need the Magus hood or Hermit's hood, you need the Noble's robe, Samurai's pants, and a cursed belt. He needs to be a saint and you need Soul of Zasalamel.
I won't go in to details about the fights as surely you can figure these out yourself. It's best to use Siegfried's legendary weapon, Soul Calibur, when doing this. To fully complete the Night Terror routes, you are not allowed to lose a single fight (until you've defeated Olcadan) or ring out the opponent after the 2nd cut scene fight (Astaroth, Raphael or Cervantes, depending on the character you choose). The choice you get after episode 4 about being watched is optional - whatever you choose will still let you do the route perfectly. You'll only get one attempt at Olcadan, who is VERY hard.
Episode 1: Old Toledo
Vs Swordsman
Choose to seek power to destroy the cursed sword
Episode 2: Lakeside Coliseum
Vs Rock
Episode 3: Clock Tower..
You should know these conditions by now. For Mi-na, use her legendary weapon Hraesberger (not sure if that's the correct spelling) as it recovers health and automatically GI's some attacks.
Episode 1: Proving Grounds
Vs Swordsman
Choose to follow Yun-Seong's trail
Episode 2: Water Mill Valley
Vs Talim
Episode 3: Clock Tower
Input: press right
Vs Zasalamel
Chose to continue searching for Yun-Seong alone
Choose to investigate the grave of the Italian merchant

Vs Voldo
If choose to stop:
Prepare to defend yourself: vs Will-O'-The-Wisp
Episode 5: Pirate Raid
Input: press right + G
Vs Cervantes
Episode 6: Ling Sheng Su Temp..
Same as usual. Go with the Phelathon as it can damage through guard and looks ace.
Episode 1: Pirate Raid
Vs Pirate

Choose to investigate the seal on the sword further.
Episode 2: Valentine Mansion
Vs Ivy
Episode 3: Clock Tower

Vs Astaroth
Episode 6: Water Mill Valley
Vs Talim
Choose to find the man
Episode 7: Labrynth (darkness)
Vs Unkown soul
To get to Night Terror with Kilik, follow this route.
Note: You can not die in any battle exept Zasalamel (second time). That means the one AFTER Olcadan.
Episode 1: Water Mill Valley: vs Talim
Choose to go to where you last fought Soul Edge
Episode 2: Ostrinsburg: vs Berserker
Episode 3: Clock Tower: vs Zasalamel
Choose to pursue the man with the scythe
Choose to investigate Nightmare
Episode 4: Egyptian Pyramid: vs Yun-Seong

Episode 5: Pirate Raid: vs Cervantes
Episode 6: Lakeside Colliseum: vs Rock
Choose to find the boastful man
Episode 7: Labrynth (darkness): vs unkown soul
Choose to proceed furth..
In chronicles of the sword you can create more than the main charater for your game.
If you're trying this, you are not allowed to lose a single fight untill after Olcadan (who you've only got one chance at) or are you allowed to ring out your sixth opponent or you won't get to Olcadan. The choice after episode 4 is optional. I would recommend using Nightmare's Soul Edge (cocoon) as it recovers health when your opponent hits your guard.
Episode 1: Romanian Valley
Vs Berserker
Choose to seek strong souls
Episode 2: Eurydice Shrine
Vs Sophitia
Episode 3: Clock Tower
Input: press right
Vs Zasalamel
Choose to recover strength in this land
Choose to recover a little more power first
Episode 4: Secret Money Pit
Vs Thief
Vs Thief
Vs Voldo
If choose to stop:
As I've said before, you can't lose a single fight, you only get one shot at Olcadan, the choice after episode 4 doesn't matter and you're not allowed to ring out your episode 6 opponent. For Talim, I would recommend Soul Calibur, for obvious reasons.
Episode 1: Lakeside Coliseum
Vs Gladiator
Vs Rock
Choose to investigate the warrior who communicated with a God
Episode 2: Eurydice Shrine
Vs Sophitia
Episode 3: Clock Tower
Input: press right
Vs Zasalamel
Choose to follow the man with the scythe
Choose to investigate the man with the scythe
Episode 4: Valentine Mansion
Vs Ivy
If chose to stop:
Prepare to defend yourself: vs Charade (whole body)
Vs Charade (legs)
Vs..
OK, rundown, don't lose to any opponent before Olcadan, Episode 4 option doesn't matter, don't ring out episode 6 foes and Olcadan is a 1 chance fight. For Maxi, I would reccomend Vajra.
Episode 1: Water Mill Valley
Vs Talim
Choose to follow Talim
Episode 2: Water Mill Valley
Vs Thief
Vs Thief
Episode 3: Clock Tower
Input: press right
Vs Zasalamel
Choose to search for Astaroth on your own
Choose to question how the man knows about Soul Edge being in his body
Episode 4: Old Toledo
Vs Cassandra
If choose to stop:
Prepare to defend yourself: vs Doppelganger
Episode 5: Romanian Valley
Input: press left + G
Vs Raphael
Episode 6: Indian Port
..
You know it by now. Don't lose any fights before Olcadan, episode 4 choice after the fight is optional, don't win episode 6 by ring out and Olcadan is a one chancer. For Cassandra, your best choice is to use Valkyrie as it recovers health and has increased attack, defense and range.
Episode 1: Eurydice Shrine
Vs Revenant
Choose to search for Sophitia
Episode 2: Old Toledo
Vs Assassin
Episode 3: Clock Tower
Input: press right

Vs Kilik
If choose to stop
Prepare to defend yourself: vs Shadow Master
Episode 5: Kunpaetku Shrine Ruin
Input: press G
I'm getting bored with theses descriptions of the terms, look back at the old ones. For Raphael, use the Queens Guard, as it recovers huge amounts of health.

The cameos in Chronicles of the Sword are a great way of boosting your character's experience levels. The allways stay in the same place so you don't need to worry about them attacking you personally. The one's that are in strongholds (which is almost all of them) can cause problems because of the stronghold abilities. Here's where to find all of them.
Note: All cameos are at Lv. 60 and are wearing their 2nd costumes. Olcadan and Abyss don't make cameos.
Astaroth
Chronicle: 4
Arena: Lakeside Coliseum (cage up)
Location: From main stronghold, take the furthest left route till you get to the lone stronghold.
Ivy
Chronicle: 5
Arena: Water Mill Valley
Location: head to the furthest left bridge, she's at the other side.
Once you get every discipline (for Barbarian) up to Soul Of Nightmare,then equip your barbarian character with a Soul Of Nightmare weapon (any weapon).....now to the hint parts , go to Chronicles Of The Sword mode then start (or load) a chronicle,pick your character as a barbarian,begin chronicle
Then do a battle , once battle is started do the following moves:
Death Horn Charge:While Crouching B+Right-down diagonal
Midnight Launcher:<= + B
Doom's Invitation:Left Side Throw
Soul Blaze:<= + A + B
These moves take lots of health , and sorry if I said some stuff two times
Have fun taking lots of health on Chronicles of The Sword mode
=]
Same rules as usual. Due to Mitsurugi's all-round status and good attack power, any weapon is good for this, though I advise against using Soul Edge. M preferred weapon is the two-handed sword due to it's improved range and ability to damage through guard.
Episode 1: Battle in the Strait
Vs Samurai
Choose to take a ship to Persia
Episode 2: Egyptian Temple

Ok guys here goes. This is for Iron Sword/Siegfried/Nightmare users only.
If you are Iron Sword user- L2 constantly (cheap, but effective)
Siegfried- L2 A A (delay) A (delay) B (delay) B B B
Nightmare- <-L2 constantly (is not cheap because it can be dodged but not blocked

Hey guys, Hera Ledro again!
Most of you probably prefer the Iron Sword, or Soul of Siegfried/Nightmare for your weapons. It's true, they are probably the easiest to master (and my favorite also), but the are not the best. I believe that Kunai are the way to go, especially if you are a ninja or assassin. Sword Masters are even better with them.
With Kunai, you can warp, high jump, flip jump, roll, and do all sorts of neat tricks. My favorite trick, though, is the head dive! It does massive damage to the opponent and, if they are guarding, will break through their guard, allowing you to retaliate with some massive combos. When they close in on you, warp (A+K+up, down, left or right) and you will usually dodge all vertical and horizontal attacks. Unblockables, on the o..
Hera Ledro again.
The easiest way to level up really fast, is to get to Chronicle 19 as fast as possible, and then beat Ende. He's a lv. 99, and is hard to beat, but is anything but cheap, and levels you up by like, 6-8 levels!!
Later.
Hera Ledro
Here is a really cheap tactic I learned while playing Soul Calibur III. Most NPC(s) can block low attacks yet cannot block them REPEATEDLY. So if you do a quick amount of low attacks, the NPC will have their guard broke, and receive damage.
The best tactic is to use Yoshimitsu, and do his spinning low kick attacking by pressing left-down and repeatedly tapping O or the kick button. That will make him do a various amount of kicking moves, which if you repeatedly do, will keep breaking through the enemie's defense and inflicting more damage. If the enemy is beginning to get hits on you, use B - G to grab the enemy and throw them to the ground, and continue the attack there. If you do this tactic, not even the most hardest NPC's will be able to block your attacks, and you will in..

On the subject of deafeating olcadan in the tutorial in the single player mode, to get your charecters spefic hidden weapon. I'm not sure how many tutorial lessons there are but I've deafted the tutorial several times with the different charecters. Look out for the medium lessons with delaying techniques they take forever!!
Dont build Abilia up in Chronicles Of The Sword.
To easily unlock items, go into options, 2 player standard, and make it so you only have to win once to take the match. Now go into 2 player standard, and choose your character and a random person for 2 player. Now just beat them repeatedly to keep unlocking items. This is the easiest way to unlock weapons for custom jobs.
Make a Custom Character for All of The Starting Jobs and go to Two Player Section. Use your character and put the 2nd player on anyone else. Do about 100 macthes(You Win) and you should have all of the weapon types for that job. Plus bonus stuff too.
(to make it go by quicker put the 2nd players health at the lowest amount possible)
On some characters, like Cassandra's first costume, hold L1 L2 R1 R2 after selecting the character and hold it while the screen is black. You will know that it worked when you hear that unlock noise or something. There will be another color for you to edit, which is usually the underwear. **This isnt for all characters.**
On tales of souls, choose lizardman.
Just to make it clear, you CANNOT lose any battle!
Battle: Silk Road Ruin-Vs Assasin
-choose head east-
_
Battle: Lotus Garden-Vs Xianghua
_
Battle: Ostrihensburg:Vs Tira
-choose pursue the girl-

Ostrihensburg:Vs Li Long
Once you get to Li Long, just to warn
You, he is VERY hard to beat.

Ok here it is go to any shop just keap pushin triangle and there you go the shopkeepers boobs jiggle
This isn't really a cheat but it's a good way to make Voldo look spasticated. (It is best to do this in freestyle practice) First go into blind stance (Back, B+K) Then press A+B and make sure you hit your opponent. When your up in the air countinually press K. Voldo will go round in circles then explode. But thats not all! When he's on the ground go into Mantis Crawl (B+K) Then press A+B about 3 times. Then hold A+B and Voldo would have just gone spasticated. It looks funny if you did it right but hardly does anything. So overall this is just for your entertainment.
