Beginner Guide This is not MtG.
PQ has:
- Objectives
- Lanes
- Mastery
Objectives
Power is not your friend. It is your enemy. Fast wins are for Training Grounds and Story Mode, and those are quite a small portion of the game.
Lanes
There are only three creatures you ever need face. If you have enough lifelink to match the power on the other side, you can't lose. However, this interferes with Job 1: Objectives. What else can we do about the Lanes? We can jam them up with weak or disabled creatures, with Hixus or Turn to Frog.
Or we can just kill them. Kill Spells are tactical in MtG; there's always too many creatures to kill them all. Not here. Here you are guaranteed not only to have enough kill spells, but automatic card advantage as well. Kill any reinforced creature and you have already won the card advantage game.
Mastery
Mastery is also our enemy. Bronze now features many opponents who know this, and tailored their decks to stay in Bronze and kill the noobs. Be equal to them, lose to them, doesn't matter; it's still better than facing the much greater number of excellent players who not only tailor their decks, but have access to cards you may never own.
Conclusion
Black. Always. Origins. Always. Origins exceptions:
PMA cards are also always Standard.
Binding the Old Gods. Kills supports or creatures, draws a land, kills your own creatures if you have too much power/ kills more of their creatures.
Mastery
Colorless
- 5 points to all colors: The five Origins lands
Optional:
- 1 point to all colors: Alchemist's Vial
- 5oints to all colors:
Blue
- 4/54 Blue: Turn to Frog
PWs
Ashiok, Nightmare Muse
Draw one of their cards, bounce what you can't/don't want to kill, maybe finish with a 30/30 Hexproof unblockable creature. Or just stay safe and ready to Bounce.
Nissa of Shadowed Boughs
Mastery/total. Best Source is packs or Crafting unless otherwise noted.

Optional
- Harbinger of the Tides. Bounce, mostly inferior to kill, even with the additional cost. "Greg", the computer opponent, understands cost and will switch to another card efficiently.
- 2/ Read the Bones. Draw is not usually the issue. Mana is.
- 4/ Possessed Skaab. Combos with Cruel Revival, as Fleshbag does, and can bring back cards
- 8/ Languish. Optional because with that many kill spells, you might not even need it to kill your own creatures for those objectives.

It was only ever a game of beating a cheating gem swapper when it stopped cheating or, more often, the cards it played were so terrible that it couldn't win even with cheating. A little effort into making actual puzzles would have gone a long way.
Bugs
- InevitableEnd kills do not count towards Story objectives, probably because kill counters probably only check during the player's turn
Other
Gideon Blackblade's invulnerability has proven invaluable in Training and, in particular, in Story, where most of the scenarios' objectives, high numbers of unlikely and/or uncontrollable and/or detrimental things (achieve the feat of eight of your creatures being destroyed!) cannot normally be completed before the computer or the player are dead.
- • • • XP
Leveling too much, worst case scenario
- Story mode: Five Planeswalkers; the first gets 20 XP, the rest get 2 XP per card per game, twenty eight XP on cards, for ten gold for all-color completion. The Objective reward is cheaper, or free if done at the same time, for 15 gold. This can be seen as 20 XP for 15 Objective gold and eight XP for 10 Completion gold. In total, 25 gold for 28 XP
- Training Grounds: One Planeswalker x6 XP per card per game for four games, twenty four XP per card, for fifteen gold. More XP per gold all told
Conclusion: Don't avoid Story mode, but complete it; don't just do Objectives. But note that the first Objective rewards only Runes. Returning to complete it in a separate game would get more XP

Legend of Dragoon Wikia User page
•
• Many Wikia projects. One of the more recent is Battleforge Wikia. Since then, many in the links above, plus Legend of Dragoon wiki, and Torment wiki and Vampire: the Masquerade - Redemption and Vagrant Story may be replaced by the above links soon as well. Legend of Dragoon Wikia is a very well-kept site; its scope is not wide, but it is tended with care by fans not wiki-fuhrers, so there is less need for me to work on it.
Perfect World wikia: Less complete than the original wiki http://pwi-wiki.perfectworld.com/index.php/Main_Page . At one time, the Wikia version was more complete on game entities that had been recently introduced, as no one much worked on the old wiki, but new hands have taken up the task. Conversely, the Wikia is being expanded with more high-level content. http://perfectworldinternational.wikia.com/wiki/User:VvAnarchangelvV
