How to unlock the Arte Tuning Adept achievement in Tales of Xillia - Definitive Guide
Progress on this trophy carries over to a NG+.
When Rowen uses an arte, you can influence the arte by pressing or moving the left stick. Do this 150 times for the trophy. A few examples on what you need to do for some artes are:
- Fireball, Air Pressure and Rock Trine- keep tapping
- Splash, Roche Waltz - move left stick
You can work towards this trophy naturally by controlling Rowen during battles, and using artes all the time, while tapping and continuously moving the left stick while he’s performing an arte.
If you don’t use Rowen throughout the game, and need to grind this out during the end game portion of your playthrough, you can use the skill Minimum Damage and accessory Risk Ring as mentioned under Combo Artiste to grind this out against weaker enemies. Alternatively, you can use the Mystic Symbol to reduce the casting timing by 30% and have your partners supply you with TP via auto item.
Also be sure to have the following skills turned on as they help a little with this trophy:
- Reduction
- Absolute Reduction
- Conservation
- Grace
- Conductor 1, 2 and 3
Be sure you don’t have Abrupt Cast equipped, as it won’t allow you to do Arte Tuning (this is in one of the last slots from Rowens Lilium Orb so you shouldn’t worry though).
