TRAINING (OFFLINE MODE)

In Training Mode, you can fight in friendly matches with up to three other local players using any unlocked Warrior.
Use this mode to practise different combat styles with your Warriors and level them up, so they’ll be better when fighting in Online Combat. You can also replay the Tutorial here if you ever need a refresher on any of the actions in-game.

TOURNAMENT (OFFLINE MODE)

You need to have at least two Warriors unlocked to play in the Tournament. There are seven territories to conquer, and after you unlock one you can also select it in the Quick Combat Training mode.

When you enter a territory, you can navigate around the map to select a Combat, Challenge or Final Boss fight.

1) Combat: These are regular fights against other Warriors. Each Combat has three possible fights to choose from.

2) Challenge: These are matches with specific rules. Each territory has its own Challenge with its own objectives to complete.

3) Final Boss: In order to conquer certain territories, you must fight against a couple of final bosses.

LEAGUE (ONLINE MODE)

To play online, you need to reach the Tutorial that unlocks Online Combat and have at least two Warriors.
Each match works as a 2vs2 fight, with each of the four players controlling a Warrior. First you need to search for opponents and then when everyone is ready and has selected a Warrior – it’s time to fight!
You can play the League single player or with a friend. Your friend can be a local player who plays in your League and helps you to win your fights, or an online player who plays with you – and both of you are taking part in your own Leagues on your own consoles.

Divisions
There are ten Divisions, each with its own level of difficulty and rewards. When you first enter the League, you start in the first Division (Division Common II) and try to keep being promoted until you reach the top Division (Diamond I).

Seasons
You have to complete ten fights in each Division, and each group of ten fights is called a Season. Depending on how many fights you win at the end of a Season, you will be promoted, relegated or stay in the same Division. There is no time limit for when you have to complete the ten fights – you can play whenever you want!

Match making
The game will try to match players with a similar level so you get a fair fight. When you enter a Division, you are automatically given the level of that Division, and it doesn’t take into account your previous levels. So if you repeat a Division, you go back to the level of that Division.

QUICK COMBAT (ONLINE MODE)

These are normal online matches where up to four players can play no matter what their League stats are.
The team who wins the most rounds or loses the least amount of health, taking into account the number of times Warriors have been revived, are the winners.

The only way to survive in the Wildlands… is to fight! Here are some tips to help you keep your feet and knock your enemies off theirs.

• Watch your stamina! Running out of it will leave you puffing, panting… and defenceless.
• Parrying is high reward, but high risk. Work on mastering blocking first.
• Combos can be interrupted if a blow is blocked. Be on the lookout for openings, and don’t overcommit to a combo if your opponent blocks your strike.
• Rolling is the most effective way of getting out of trouble, but can burn through your stamina.
• Wait for your opportunities in “all vs all” battles. It’s every Warrior for him/herself – so let your opponents soften each other up before you go wading in.
• Even a high level Warrior can get flattened by a rampaging mammoth. Explore each arena in Training Mode to discover how to unleash their devastating environmental attacks.
• Your Elemental Rage is more effective against Warriors of the opposite element… but it can always help you out in a pinch. Don’t forget to use it!
• Fit your Talismans to a Warrior’s strengths and weaknesses. Quick but frail? Try a defence-boosting Talisman. Fighting a Warrior with an opposing elemental alignment? Try a Talisman that improves your resistance.

Want to make your Warrior’s life a little easier? Visit the Foundry in the town to craft and equip Talismans and Potions. As your overall level rises you’ll be able to craft new and better items, so check back in at the Foundry every time you level up.

TALISMANS

Talismans are items you can assign to your Warriors to improve their stats. They can do anything from increasing attack power to boosting the amount of life recovered when eating on the battlefield. Some Talismans raise certain stats but reduce others – think hard about whether the increase is worth it.

There are three categories of Talisman: Trinket, Charm and Amulet, each with a different effectiveness and number of uses.

POTIONS

Potions are single-use concoctions that will help you out while you’re fighting. Gulp one down to recover Health, Stamina or Mana for special attacks. Potions come in levels of Full, Half or Low effectiveness.

CRAFTING

Press the F button in the Foundry to open the Crafting menu. Once you’re in, press the F button to cycle between Talismans and Potions.
To craft items you’ll need materials – natural stuff for Potions, metallic ores for Talismans. You’ll receive materials as rewards for battling and also find them inside chests on the field.
To create a Charm or Amulet Talisman, you need to use a Talisman of the class below and of the same type as a material. So, to craft a Charm Talisman you need the set amount of Gold, Silver and Copper plus a Trinket Talisman, and to craft an Amulet Talisman you need the required amount of metal plus a Charm Talisman.

EQUIPPING

Each Warrior has a potential three slots for Talismans. Low-level Warriors may only have one or none – level them up to unlock more slots.

Once a Talisman is assigned to a Warrior, its effect will last as long as it is equipped. The Talisman can be removed and assigned to another Warrior at any time, but Talismans can only be used for a certain number of fights. As soon as you reach the maximum number of uses, the Talisman breaks and disappears from your inventory.

You can only carry one Potion at a time, so choose wisely.

Warriors can test their strength in eight arenas, each with its own obstacles and dangers.

COLISEUM

Features a rotating totem that shoots fire in the centre of the arena.

HEROIC HILLS

Whirlpools appear around the river, just to make battles a little more difficult.

THE SEA OF NIGHT

The Titan will try to hit Warriors with his anchor, but you can use the ship to your advantage.

MIDNIGHT FOREST

The magic tree will give help to the team that is first to hit the orbs.

SANDALUS DESERT

There are two huge statues in the arena – warriors who invoke the statue of their colour will gain a huge advantage in combat.

THE BONE WOODS

Battle on a descending platform.

WHITE WASTES

If you hit the Totems in the right order, you can ride a mammoth.

VOLCANO CANYON

Fight on a rotating floor.

Chests
You will find chests in each arena that contain different items.

• Chicken thighs – to regenerate life.
• Mana – to increase Mana.
• Bronze, Silver and Gold ingots – to make Talismans.
• Pure Water, Almonds and Toad Thrones – to make Potions.

Here’s how to control your Warrior in battle:

There are 31 trophies to unlock in the game – can you collect them all and prove you are the most skilled of Warriors?

	Jester Make fun of your opponent and taunt him 3 times in a match.
	Expert Trainer Level-up one Warrior to level 50.
	Complete Army Unlock ALL the Warriors.
	Master of Masters Obtain all the Trophies.
