Armored Core VI: Fires Of Rubicon Master Of Arena Guide

Here is the Armored Core VI: Fires Of Rubicon Master of Arena guide which will help you clear all Arena programs of which there are 41 in total, however, to unlock them all, you will need to be on but not completing New Game++ (Third Playthrough).

The Arena missions will pit you against opponent(s) of varying difficulty which become more of a challenge the more you progress through the ranks and will initially become available once you have completed mission 9: Retrieve Combat Logs and can be found by going: Garage> Arena then select any opponent you haven’t defeated.

Each win will award you OST Chips you can spend on software upgrades which are found by going: Garage> OS Tuning and can really upgrade your AC making tougher missions trivial when you go back to them with the appropriate upgrades.

The opponents you will face in the Arena are other AC’s which are outfitted in certain ways to pose a challenge, however, that said, the makority of your opponents will be a lot easier than the Missions and or boss(es) you have defeated to unlock them so it feels a bit backwards to me but it is what it is, they serve a purpose and combat experience is combat experience after all.

You will, on your first playthrough unlock the first 29 Arena battles which once all completed will unlock Testing Complete for completing every Arena aptitude test.

Then, on New Game + whilst you’re going for the Liberator Of Rubicon Ending you will unlock the Arena Analysis battles throughout your playthrough giving you 9 more opponents to take down.

Once you’re on your third playthrough, you will then, whilst going for the Alea lacta Est Ending unlock the final 3 Classified opponents in the Analysis section.

Given the size of the amount of opponents you will be facing in the Arena, I have broken them down into their own guides per category:

• Arena Aptitude Tests.
• Arena Analysis Tests.

Take down all 41 opponents in the Arena to become Master of Arena.
