Battle Coliseum - Main

Here are a couple of weapons I found lying around the shop! Why don't you take these and try your hand at battling? They're not much, but they'll get you started!

You don't know where to start? All right! Here are the basic how-tos of battling:

First, you gotta equip your weapons. You do that by clicking on them in your inventory and moving them to your armory.
Next, head to the Armory and add those weapons to your default set!
Make sure your pet is fed, happy, and healthy -- a sad or tired pet can't battle!
Guess what? You're now ready to battle! You should try giving Willowisp or Technicant a run for their money! :wink: Remember, you can use up to two weapons each turn!

Did you win? If so, congratulations! You're on your way to becoming a great battler. Use the experience points you earned to raise your pet's stats, and read your pet some books so that you can gain alchemy points. These will allow you to equip scrolls, which act as a third weapon! And try fighting some other challengers -- there are a lot to choose from. Some challengers are always available to everyone, some you need to unlock in various ways, and a few only appear at certain times of the month or year.

If you lost, keep trying! Losses are like battle scars -- you'll learn from them and emerge even stronger! Train your pet up a bit, or try using your weapons in a different combination. Battling is all about experimenting, trying to find out what works best! Just make sure to heal before you head back into battle.

If you're stuck, there are a ton of helpful reference threads on the BC Chat, including an in-depth battling guide and lists of the most useful weapons, potions and scrolls! Or you can always post and ask other battlers for advice. Battlers are quite the helpful group. They don't bite (I think!).

Most of all, just have fun!
