Skills for Duels Trophy in Soulcalibur V

  • Skills for Duels

     

    Legendary Souls: won with brave edge.

    How to unlock Skills for Duels

    For this trophy you must defeat an opponent in Legendary Souls with a Brave Edge attack. To unlock Legendary Souls you must complete Story -1607 A.D- which shouldn't take too long anyway. Legendary Souls can be compared to Score Attack in Blazblue where the difficulty is a level higher then hard in Arcade, there are 7 stages in Legendary Souls and these are the opponents that it consist of (in order):

     

    1. Kilik
    2. Nightmare
    3. Siegfried
    4. Cervantes
    5. Edge Master
    6. Elysium
    7. Algol

    Because of the difficulty of this mode you want to take care during the first fight against Kilik. First let's go over the Brave Edge moves you have, assuming you are following the suggestions under Sudden Temptation, here is a list of moves that go can into Brave Edge for both of the recommended characters:

    Natsu:

     

    • Possession (PO)
    • +

    Mitsurugi:

     

    • Mist (MST)

    Check the Move List for various ways to go into the MST stance.

    Strategy Against Kilik:

    During this battle Kilik will only use the Xiba style (so in a sense it would be like facing Kilik from the older games...almost). Kilik is very aggressive and can convert the smallest pokes into big damage. Try not to over analyse this fight, keep it simple and punish him when you see an opening. Because of the damage he gets off of his high-mid moves it would be easy not to crouch unless he goes for a low attack, between the two you can eat a low hit or two. Kilik will utilize his Brave Edge when it is available which is another reason to play it safe.

    This battle takes place on the Mt. Fuji the Holy: Hidden Dragon stage so again, be sure to utilize the edges for ring outs if you need to.

  • I've tried numerous times for this trophy but for some reason it hasn't popped, I was wondering if I could get some answers as to why. I use Maxi, my best time is 19 mins. his -> R1 with the R2 button does a brave edge attack that he can make into additional moves. I've used this to defeat many opponents but for some reason the trophy hasn't popped. Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong? I don't think I can beat Legendary Souls with anyone else as I've always been a Maxi fan. He's my main character.
  • Nvm, I just used your guide's advice and did it with Natsu. Thanks!
  • i have done this in one round but no trophy,does it need to win the match
  • the last attack that wins you the third round and the match is the one. one easy way to to it is spamming grabs with astaroth. 4/5 kilik will not counter. in the last round when he hits red, double tap up(down) and press triangle followed by R2. if it hits kilik will die and you win the match and the trophy
  • Did it during 1st attempt with Viola! Keep spamming (B,B,B). She's sending the orb "GO" and calling it back "COME". When you are about to win the match and the orb is set (blue sphere on the screen after "GO" command) quickly press R1,R2 (as default controls A+B,A+B+K). If you will land this extremly easy brave edge the trophy is yours. As easy as pie!
  • This trophy is bullshit I tried spamming with viola and natsu both suck ass I still get my ass kicked fuckin piece of shit trophy
