The ultimate champion of Avzar can’t just be a one hit wonder – they need endurance. They need the moxy to last through fight after fight. That’s where the Decathlon comes in – a 10-phase brawl-athon that pits players against 10 increasingly challenging opponents to test their endurance, strength, and skill. In this week’s Game Overview – the first of our new Taichi Mastermind Program – we are joined with community streamer Solbash Gaming to teach you the tips and tricks of Decathlon

Decathlon – Once, Twice, Ten Times a Panda
Unlocked at level 40, Decathlon can be found in the Fortitude menu, next to the Battlefields, Arenas, and Team Instances. The game offers 2 modes for entering Decathlon – Normal and Hard. The selection will determine the level of opponents as well as the severity of the “Fortunes”, and likewise the value of the rewards. Only in Hard can players get Ranked, and with it the chance at extra bonus rewards.
Players will take on a series of 10 AI controlled opponents, pulled from the pool of fellow players much like the Arena. With each opponent defeated, players will face a new one, with each successive challenger having higher Might than the last.
For your accomplishments, you’ll get Tiger Ruins, which can be exchanged at the Decathlon Store.
Navigating the Menu
you select between Normal and Hard mode, you’ll be faced with this screen:
There is a lot going on here, so let’s break it down a little:
A. Decathlon explanation and tips.
B. Shows what Rank opponent you are about to face in your current Decathlon run (1-10).
C. Resets your current Decathlon run.
D. Shows your current fortune - we’ll cover this in more detail.
E. Your remaining HP %.
F. Shows the possible rewards for your current Decathlon run.
G. Brings up the Decathlon Leaderboards.
H. Starts your next Decathlon battle!
I. Brings up the Decathlon Store.
In this menu, you can see your opponent, and also what to expect from the fight. Before starting a battle, make sure to check your current fortune (D) - it shows the map you’ll be fighting on, and which random effects – known as Fortunes – will occur in your next battle. You can also see yoru expected reward, and your remaining HP for the round.
Important Points to Know
For those who lack the attention span to watch the video, here’s what you need to know:
1. Pet and Player Health
Your health and that of the pets that you used will not recover after each successive battle. It will be the same as when it ended. Taking a pet out of action also won’t help it recover – the 10 battle set for Decathlon has no regens.
2. Hiring Pets
Besides the pets you have, there is also the option to hire out pets from members of your Guild.
3. Fortunes
During the battle, there will be randomly generated effects to contend with. These can work to your benefit, or to your detriment, so be aware of what they are. You can reroll to get a different fortune with Diamonds.
A Few Choice Tips
Here are a few strategies for how to make the most out of Decathlon:
Pet Management
The more you level up, it’s easy to forget how much damage your pets take for you, and how important they are in battle. It’s very important to make sure that you manage your pets well so they can see you through to the end.
Look for good combinations of pets that will help you maximize damage output while minimizing damage taken, or at help to recover. Every pet has their advantage, find ways to maximize them. For example, when upgraded to the right level, Nezha can revive himself after death. Use this as a way to keep him in the game.
Manage Health
Tied very closely to the first point, it is very important that you manage both your health and that of your pets. If a particular pet that is important to your gameplay strategy is taking damage, be sure to switch quickly to another to avoid suffering too much damage.
Likewise, be aware of how much health you have. If you find you’re taking too much damage, find a way to use your pets or the environment to your advantage.
Replayable
This can be important – if you lose a given battle, it will not automatically end the Decathlon. While it will have an effect on your place in the rankings, after dying players and their pets will have the same health as before they entered. This means they can try again, better informed about what they face. If a battle doesn’t go your way, and you lose too much health or a valuable pet, it can be a smart strategy to let yourself die and start again, with a new pets and tactics.
