How to unlock the A Solid B achievement in Tales of Berseria - Definitive Guide
Standard Titles
1. Level Title 1: Reach Level 40
2. Level Title 2: Reach Level 50
3. Level Title 3: Reach level 60
These will be obtained easily over time. Dont even focus on these. You will get to level 200 easily once you have both 2x EXP and 3X EXP enabled
4. Basic Artes\Malak Arts Title: Use basic artes 5,000 times
5. Advanced Artes Title: Use advanced artes 2,500 times
These two are different depending on the user. Velvet and Rokurou use Martial and Hidden arts whereas Laphicet, Magilou, Eleanor and Eizen use Malak Arts and Hidden Arts. I also found that the computer rarely used Hidden Arts for Laphicet and Eleanor so I recommend using them when you are going for title #8
6. Break Soul Title: Use Break Souls 1,000 times
7. Mystic Arte Title: Use Mystic Arte 250 times
These two can be farmed during Slash Beat or you can just leave it up to the CPU to use them. By default they basically use them as soon as they are available so it pays to switch between characters to let the computer control them during fights
8. Controlled Character Title: Control character x 150 times in battle (300 times with Velvet)
Another reason to swap characters. I recommend using Velvet and Rokurou for the start of the game. Eleanor, Eizen, Magilou and Laphicet are hard to use when their focus is low.
9. Enemies Defeated Title: Defeat 2,500 enemies with character x
10. Combo Title: Defeat an enemy with at least 40 hits 40 times
11. Weakpoint Title: Hit an enemy's weakness 500 times
12. Stun Title: Stun an enemy 50 times
13. Ailment Title: Get hit with an ailment 200 times (70 times with Laphicet, 100 times with Eizen)
These ones can usually be ignored. As long as the computer spends enough time using each character in a fight, these will complete themselves. If you do plan on doing any of these, just keep in mid that Weakpoint requires you to attack ALL weakpoints on an enemy to count. Not just one. Combo one should come naturally once you master using a character, stun will happen on its own as will the ailments and defeating enemies. If you do plan to knock them out yourself, Combo and Stun can be grinded via Slash Beat
14. Switch Blast Title: Use a Switch Blast with character x 50 times
This one can be obtained via the computer but it is unlikely. Simply just sit the character you need this for and have them swap in during battle. You can swap them in and out repeatedly as long as you have enough BG. Might be worth swapping with the character you are using that way you can earn souls and use Soul break to refill your BG bar.
15. Evasion Title: Avoid an attack from an enemy just in time 400 times
The Computer will do a lot of work on this. If you are needing this for anyone, an easy way to get it is to set that character to defense only and let the computer control them. You will get it in no time.
16. Soul Title: Crush 2,500 souls
17. Item Drop Title: Enemy who defeated dropped an item 200 times
Dont worry about these, you will obtain them without noticing as long as you arent skipping most battles
18. Master Skill Title: Learnt 50 Master Skills
This one requires some work. Basically each piece of equipment comes with a master skill. To unlock it you have to equip it and fight for so many battles (It will be listed). Make sure to constantly check you equipment and equip something new once you mastered it. This should be fairly simple to accomplish as you can wear 5 pieces of equipment at once. (Weapon, Accessory, Armour, Ring and Boots). Master 10 of each per character and you are set
19. Equipment Title: Equipped equipment that have a combined strengthened amount of 30
This one can be a pain due to the enhancing process. First of all if you need Coarse, Standard or Fine Tempering powder, teleporting to Katz corner with the bottomless Inoph bottle and running over to the Katz who are wrestling typically has a drop there that is one of the 3. Grab it and teleport to Hellewas and teleport back to respawn the drop. The drop appears most of the time but not 100%. Just repeat the process until it spawns again. The other thing that will save you a TON of time is maxing out equipment that can be used by ALL characters. Max out the Ring and a Universal boot like the Quartz boots. You will have an easy 20/30 at that point and just need another 10 across the other 3 equipment types which you can dismantle shortly after to get some of your items back. You also need to defeat Milla in Figahl Ice Caps to unlock the ability to max a piece of equipment to +10

Learnt Skill Title: Discovered 240 skills
**Learnt Skill Titles refers to all the titles learned in the game. They do not transfer from NG+. You will need to find 240 in 1 playthrough. Random Skills count towards this and I believe mastered skills that have been mastered should count when you have the equipment in the playthrough.

All the Character based titles are pretty self explanatory and will more or less be completed naturally without having to grind them or while going for other achievements. The only one that may need to be grinded is Rokurou's strengthen 200 pieces of equipment. For that I would personally just upgrade something until it requires Temping Powder than dismantle it to get you materials back, rinse and repeat.
Raise all titles from all characters to level 2. This is one of the most time-consuming trophies in this game. A title is on level 2 when it has three skills unlocked out of four which you can check in the equipment. Unlocked skills are coloured in white. Every character has nineteen Standard Titles and four character exclusive titles, so 23 in total. Many of the titles will level up naturally over the course of the story and by clearing side quests, but there will very likely still be a few you have to pay attention to. When you play the game, look at the titles and their level up conditions, then you can work on them alongside working on the other trophies, especially stuff like using Mystic Artes or controlling different characters. The more you can cross off beforehand, the less of a grind you will have later when this trophy is one the last you still have to earn. Actions the CPU controlled characters do like for example using artes will count for this trophy.

Mystic Artes and Break Souls can be farmed easily with the mini game Slash Beat. You always start with 3 BG and have 15 seconds time to defeat the dummy enemy. Spam Break Souls as much as you can, then repeat the mini game. For Mystic Artes, there is an even quicker option. Attack the dummy enemy once, then press to activate the Mystic Arte. Once the animation of the Mystic Arte is over, restart the mini game with and the Mystic Arte counter will go up by 1. You do not even have to finish the mini game which means you can get about 5-6 Mystic Artes per minute.
For the Combo Title, you can also use the Slash Beat mini game, since you need to do the 40 hits yourself. In regular battles, defeating enemies with 40+ hits does not always count since there may be hits from other characters. In the Slash Beat mini game, you can repeatedly use one arte with a character and gain 40+ hits in the time limit. End the fight with a Mystic Arte if you still need credit for the Mystic Arte title. See the following list for a recommended arte to do this:
- Velvet: Defiant Conviction
- Rokurou: Form 7: Rapid Bolt
- Laphicet: Arctic Peals
- Eizen: Deceiving Pummel
- Eleanor: Hexa Strike
For Magilou, you can use the Mystic Arte Chain with her Third Mystic Arte as the last one or use the combo that you can find in the description of the Making a Mint trophy.
For the Weakpoint title, you have to hit every single weakness an enemy has for it to count, not just one weakness. For this, you also have to play on Normal Difficulty or above since the Weakness system is disabled on Easy difficulty. Many enemies have multiple weaknesses, so this is hard to get naturally. You can set in the Tactics that the CPU controlled characters always aim for weaknesses, but this is likely still not enough. There is a boar enemy in Gaiburk Ice Field that only has the Beast attribute as weakness. You can set artes that have the Beast attribute and attack it. You do not have to defeat it for the hits to count, and you can attack it with the same arte over and over again to have more attacks. Set your game to Chaos difficulty to raise its HP and to be able to get more hits.
For the Controlled Character Title, you can set each character to Manual in your party even if you are playing alone. This way each won battle will count towards all four characters, not just the one you are controlling.
For the Enemies Defeated Title, you can clear Class 4 Administrative Zones over and over. Set your other party members to Defend so that they do not attack. Alternatively, you can do the Chamballoon mini game over and over, preferably stage 5, as the balloons will count towards this title.
For the Evasion Title, set your characters to Defend and let the enemies attack you. The characters should avoid the attacks automatically.
For the Equipment Title, various combinations will count. For example if you have a weapon with +10, you need to split the remaining +20 on the other four pieces of equipment. You should focus strengthening rings and footwear since every character can equip them, so that you do not have to strengthen individual weapons so often that only count for one character.
