How to unlock the Centurion achievement in Tales of Berseria - Definitive Guide
One way is to chain Mystic Arts. I used a controller for this game so I had to hold LT while swapping characters ending with Magilou who's 3rd Mystic art gets 50 hits on its own.
The regular way would to be just to build up your combo.
1) Find your opponents weakness and set up an art combo that exploits those weaknesses.
2) Fill your Soul Gauge
3) Defend until you get the 2nd red flash to guard break and use your combo until your soul gauge is low
4) Use Soul Break to extend your combo
5) After the Soul Break Finisher quickly re-use Soul Break to continue your combo.
If you are lucky you will stun enemies during the Soul Break which allows you to continuously keep using it.
To earn this trophy, perform a combo of 100 or more hits. Since the battle system is very combo-friendly, this might happen naturally during the course of the game. If you have not got this trophy yet by the time you beat the game, there is still a method though to get that many hits, and that method is the Mystic Arte Chain. You will need to have unlocked the third Mystic Arte of at least two characters, one of them Magilou. See Witness to the Mystic for how to unlock them, but it is easier if you have unlocked everyone's third Mystic Arte.
To be able to pull off the full Mystic Arte chain, everyone needs to have the necessary amount of BG as if they would pull them off alone. It is easier to do when everyone has 5 BG each so that you do not need to pay attention to their BG amount. When you have a good combo of 30-35 hits, hold to perform your first Mystic Arte. During the animation of this Mystic Arte, hold + and at the end of the first Mystic Arte, the second Mystic Arte will be triggered. Hold + again during the animation to trigger the third Mystic Arte. Continue the chain with + , + and + . The chain will go through the characters, so you cannot for example press + twice as there is only one character in the reserve for .
The first and second Mystic Arte from the chain will be level 1 Mystic Artes, the third and fourth Mystic Arte will be level 2 Mystic Artes, and the fifth and sixth Mystic Arte will be level 3 Mystic Arte. While you can combine any Mystic Arte with each other, Magilou's third Mystic Arte is important for this trophy as it deals about 50 hits alone, so remember her position before starting the chain and make sure to pull hers off as the last one. It is easier if she is in the reserves since you can trigger the Mystic Artes of your active battle members first and then the two reserves.
