Arena Quest Rewards?

[ICountFrom0]

I checked both wiki's and neither seem to have conclusive data, or at least not much of it. I'm putting this together from fragments on 2 wiki's, reddit, and forra I'd rather not mention. Somebody maybe clue in the remainder at me? (and if somebody else wants to turn it into a guide, just credit me?)


Armor
The LR missions (1, 2, 3) give you the parts to make a set of Brigade armor.
The HR missions (4, 5, 6 & 7) give you the parts the HR version of the Brigade armor
The "expert" missions (8 & 9) combined with the HR missions unlock Guild Cross armor
If you can get B rank in quests 1 - 7, you get the Pulverizing Feather.
If you can get B rank in quests 8 & 9, you get the dragonseal earnings.

Weapons
Jail hammer & Blinder Mace
Wyvern Jawblade & Great Wyvern Jawblade
Supremacy Blade & Divine Slasher
Babel Spear & Elder Babel Spear
Cross Bowgun & Great Bowgun
Cross Hunter's Bow & Great Hunter's Bow

*bump* did I miss anything? I think this might be the start of a good guide, but I can't figure out what should go in it

What weapons and the skills are associate with each arena quest.

Some of these options are clearly better than others on some of the missions.

Yeah, you're missing which coins can be acquired from which quests.

[Keoul]

Yeah listing what coins actually drop would be great as well. I don't mean coins like "barroth drops barroth coins" but which missions drop ace coins n all that.

[Shift]

Some coins needed for certain weapons only drops on challenge missions, not only arena.

quest 8 drop brute coin & ace hunter
quest 9 drop flying coin & ace hunter

I really don't like how arena is set up. You're forced to use a weapon type you don't know most of the time, and I swear some of the monsters are nearly impossible to take on alone with the crappy gear they hand you.

I am POSITIVE that getting gold ranking is impossible for soloists on some of the monsters with some of the loadouts. You can dodge every attack and do everything to maximize your DPS, but it won't matter because the gear is crap.

Sorry about that... Does anyone know if getting higher ratings (bronze/silver/gold) actually does anything? Do you get better rewards?

[ICountFrom0]

Yes. Some of the sets of weapon exist only to be the supportive wingman to the main weapon, so that the other person can DPS the monster down and two people can get gold together.

I'm convinced that some of the challenges are more riddles then DPS contests, can you figure out the right two sets of weapons in order to have the best chance to win against this latest nonsense?

Oh and make sure to mention that the arena monsters are always scaled to multiplayer even when doing it solo.

So people understand how tough that A rank and even the B rank can be.
