spoilers Three Sacred Treasures

For those of you that have played pretty far into the game, Chapter 9 (Medusa's Final Battle) and Chapter 23 (Lord of the Underworld) both use the Three Sacred Treasures. Have any of you attempted, or even beaten, these chapters without using these ancient weapons? To disable them, click the centurion's helmet icon when selecting a level, and it'll turn gray, allowing you to play it with whatever's currently equipped.

I really find this fun to do. I've only beaten Ch. 9 with this method, as I haven't attempted Ch. 23 without them yet. It's not really difficult if you have a weapon that is more powerful than the Treasures. I'd assume that they're around Power 200 - 220, as my Power 256 Lancer Staff blows them away when it comes to destroying enemies quickly. Doing it with a stronger weapon doesn't really provide much of a challenge, but it gives an interesting conversation (at least in Ch. 9) between Palutena and Pit.

And for the others who have beaten the game, would you like the option to use the Three Sacred Treasures on every other chapter, including Ch. 25 (even if it would break the story)? I feel like it could've been cool to see them on every other chapter, even though they'd probably break even faster than when Hades broke them in Ch. 23! Apparently, they've already gotten quite a bit of wear and tear, so I can imagine that it'd be a mess to try and continually use these great weapons.

What are your thoughts?

I've tried disabling it but I didn't know how. Now I do.

I do too

I LOVE using the treasures, but I've played both of the levels with regular weapons(for speedrunning/unlocking). They look great on Pit, too. XD
It'd be awesome if there were a way to use them on every level. c:

I do wish the sacred bow could be a weapon.

its called the bow of light or sumthin like that

No, you can't get the Great Sacred Treasure bow as your own weapon, guys. That'd be cool, but it's not on the game to keep.

Chapter 23 wasn't really a big deal, since you lose them after the air battle anyway.

I did it once on Chapter 9, cause it unlocks one of the treasure hunt blocks. Not too difficult with a decent weapon. I like the Arrows of Light though. They are powerful, and aren't they the ONLY weapon that can defeat an Orne? BTW, I know the Pegasus Wings do, but does the Mirror Shield have any function at all in Uprising?

the ornes r east to dodge:)

I'm guessing you meant to either say they're easy to beat or you were expressing gang pride for East Side.

No they aren't easy when you are on high difficulties and have other things to look out for!

Tell Ya What On Every Single air battle(Including ones W/ Sacred Treasures) Keep using Aurum Orbitars They Help... ALOT.
