Valkyrie Fight FAQ/Movelist
by Captain K. (shibakev@earthlink.net) Copyright 2001
This FAQ has been submitted to www.gamefaqs.com and nowhere else. If you wish
to post it on another website or in a publication, please email the author
first.
11-19-01 Version 1.2 Lots of new methods to evade attacks added.
11-1-01 Version 1.0 All movelists are complete at this point.
Things to do in future revisions: Add damage for all attacks. Add more strategy
comments and combos.
Valkyrie Fight is a fan-written fighting game for the PC designed by Amaginz of
Japan. It is based on the Enix/Tri-Ace RPG Valkyrie Profile for the
Playstation. It is a fairly standard 2-D fighter similar to Capcom's games.
Although the game is in Japanese, I've used the U.S. names in this FAQ. Each
character will be presented with their U.S. name followed by the Japanese
equivalent in parentheses. Where possible, I've used the same attack names as
the Valkyrie Profile game. For moves that are not in Valkyrie Profile, I've
just made up names with my artistic license. :)
The default controls for player one:
Up: up arrow
Down: down arrow
Left: left arrow
Right: right arrow
Light attack: Z
Medium attack: X
Heavy attack: C
The default controls for player two:
Up: I
Down: K
Left: J
Right: L
Light attack: Q
Medium attack: W
Heavy attack: E
These controls can be changed on the Config menu.
In this FAQ I will refer to "back" as pressing the direction key that moves you
away from your opponent and "forward" as pressing the direction key that moves
you towards your opponent. Obviously this direction will change depending on
your position on the screen. but it will always be either Right or Left.
=================
The Main Screen
=================
There are seven options on the main screen. Use the up and down arrow keys to
move the pointing hand and press Z to make your selection.
Arcade - This is the regular game. You fight several different enemies for 2
rounds each. Then you fight the powerful boss Hrist.
VS Battle - This is for two players to fight against each other.
Survival - You fight unending one-round battles. Your charge time carries over
from fight to fight, and you regain some health between fights.
Time Attack - This is identical to Arcade, except there are no credits at the
end and your progress is timed.
Practice - Here you can practice your moves. It's identical to VS Battle except
that a killed person just revives and the computer tells you how much damage
your moves do.
Config - This is a submenu where you can change the settings for the game. Use
the up and down arrow keys to move between options and the left and right arrow
keys to toggle the settings.
Exit - Quits the game.
Config Sub Menu
-----------------
(Japanese letters) This lets you set the difficulty of the game.
(Japanese letters) This is the number of rounds a normal fight takes.
Time - Select how long each round lasts.
SE - Turn the sound effect on or off.
BGM - Turn the background music on or off.
Autoguard - Select which players Autoguard is active for. Autoguard will block
for the character if the player does not press any buttons during an enemy
attack.
Turbo Mode - You can increase the speed of the game. This feature must be
unlocked.
(Japanese letters) This is a submenu where you can change the default controls.
Press Z to access it.
Record - This shows various high scores for the different characters.
Exit - Returns to the main screen.
Record Sub Menu
----------------
Press the left and right arrow keys to scroll through the characters.
(Japanese letters) This is the number of times the character has been selected.
Includes all modes including Practice.
(Japanese letters) I'm not sure what this is. It may be a score of some sort.
Maybe it's the number of crystals you've obtained?
Survival - Best number of wins for that character in survival mode.
Time Attack - Best time for that character in Time Attack.
HIT - Largest number of hits you've done in a combo. My best is 197 with Janus.
(Japanese letters) - Most damage you've done in a hit or combo. My best is 2280
with Freya.
From the Japanese website comes this information for unlocking various options.
I don't know if it's correct or not because when I got the game Autoguard and
Hrist were already selectable and I got Janus when I beat Arcade mode with all
the other characters. I unlocked Turbo Mode also, but I had much more than 8000
in the "score".
to get Auto Guard mode: get 500 score in Arcade Mode
to get Hrist Playable : get 2000 Score in Arcade Mode
to get Jake Linas Playable : get 4000 Score in Arcade Mode
to get Turbo Mode : Get 8000 Score in Arcade Mode
=================================
Moves Standard to all Characters
=================================
Hold back to block an enemy attack. You can also block while in the air. If you
block too many attacks in a row you will suffer a "Guard Crush". In this case
you will be stunned and open to attack for a significant period of time. You
can see how close you are to being Guard Crushed by looking at the middle bar
at the top of the screen.
Tap back, then hold back to do a quick move backwards. The length of the move
and the way it looks will vary depending on the character.
Tap forward, then hold forward to dash or run forward. The length of the move
and the way it looks will vary depending on the character.
While blocking an attack, press down, down to dash out of the way. This is
called an "Avoid". Lucian and Brahms dash backwards, Arngrim hops in place
(useless?), and the other characters roll/teleport/surf forward.
Tap forward, forward when an attack is about to hit you to step into the
background and dodge it. This is only for a brief moment, so it won't help much
against multiple-hit moves.
Tap back, down when an attack is about to hit to do a roll/dash similar to the
Avoid above. This is rather difficult to do on command, so I'm not 100% sure
that's the right buttons to hit.
When knocked to the ground, press back, back or forward, forward to escape in
the direction pressed. Each character does this in a different way. Arngrim
hops, Valkyrie rolls, Lezard telports, etc. The forward escape can be used to
move through the opponent. Lucian CANNOT escape forward.
Press up to jump. You can also press up along with the left or right buttons to
jump diagonally. Once in the air, you can jump a second time.
Hitting an opponent who is on the ground will release a gem. This gem will
float to your character after a few seconds. Each gem reduces your Charge Time
by one.
Hitting an opponent who has been knocked into the air releases a crystal. I'm
not sure exactly what the crystals do. They may be for scoring purposes.
=================
The Characters
=================
For each character I will list some story information, followed by their moves,
some general strategy, and a strategy to beat Hrist, the last boss of the game.
I also will provide a rating on how good I think the character is overall. Note
that Hrist as a final boss is considerably stronger than the playable character
version. It is not currently known if the boss version is playable.
Moves that are marked with an asterisk (*) add Charge Time (CT) to the gauge.
If the gauge is full, doing these moves will produce the previous move listed
instead (the medium button version)
In order to use Purifications, you must have no Charge Time. (the meter will
say "charged")
====================
Valkyrie (Valkyrie)
====================
Lenneth Valkyrie is one of the three Goddesses who govern the souls of dead
humans. She takes the souls of those who may prove to be heroic fighters and
trains them. Those that are worthy are sent to Valhalla, where they serve in
Odin's army.
Moves
------------
Jump Kick: (while running) medium
Sweeping Slash: (in air) hold down, heavy
Air Dash: (while jumping) forward, forward or back, back - dashes in the air.
She can dash once in each direction each time she jumps.
High Shield: down, back, light - produces a shield that absorbs attacks
Low Shield: down, back, medium - produces a shield that absorbs attacks
*Double Shield: down, back, heavy - uses 2 CT. produces two shields that rotate
around Valkyrie. These shields last until destroyed.
Arrow Shot: down, forward, light - fires an arrow forward
Tri-Blast: down, forward, medium - fires three arrows in a wide pattern
Low Shot: down, forward, heavy - fires an arrow that bounces off the ground
Leg Cutter: forward, down, forward, light - swings sword at enemy's legs
Vertical Raid: forward, down, forward, medium - an upward sword swing
*Spear Raid: forward, down, forward, heavy - uses 3 CT. knocks the enemy into
the air and impales them with three spears
Crystal Shot: (while jumping): down, forward, any attack - shoots a
short-ranged crystal. The button pressed determines the angle.
*Nibelung Valesti (Purification): back, down, forward, heavy - uses 6 CT. does
a sword combo, then knocks the enemy into the air and impales them with three
spears, followed by a giant spear.
Combos
---------
Strategy
----------
Use the Double Shields! They're great for absorbing attacks. Activate them,
then rush down your opponent. Any counterattacks they make will hit the shields
instead. Just watch out for multi-hit moves like Arngrim's Fire Blast. They can
blow away the shield and hit you also.
Strategy vs. Hrist
-------------------
A tough fight for Valk. Your best bet is to hit her from the air. That keeps
you above her deadliest moves. Try to keep your shields going, but don't expect
them to last long.
Rating
----------
B+. The shields make her difficult to kill, and she has a strong air game. Good
up close or at a distance.
=========
Arngrim (Aluze)
=========
Arngrim is a knight of Artolia, and is considered to be one of the greatest
fighters in the world. His friends call him the "Genius of the Battlefield."
After uncovering a conspiracy and slaying the Royal Advisor Longrim, Arngrim
took his own life rather than raise his sword against the Knight Captain. Now
