[[File:Arms_altar.png|thumb|230px|The main hub as it appears in Solo Mode.]] | |||
The goddess' temple acts as the central hub area in this game, and is where most of the game's menu functionality occurs. Although the location provides numerous customization options for players, it cannot be freely explored like a typical hub area. Players can check out their progress in the Treasure Hunt, perform Idol Tosses, practice Air and Land Battle techniques, and check out current weapons. A section called the Arms Altar features many other options regarding weapons. | |||
After [[Chapter 19]], [[Viridi]] takes over Palutena's job and takes Pit into her temple. This feat changes the look of the temple the player is used to resting in since it is now in Viridi's Temple. No options are changed, but the overall layout has a new look. Viridi's Temple is covered in grass and many symbols seen in Palutena's Temple are now changed for Viridi's equivalent. The most notable switch is the replacement of the Centurion Strongarm with an Urgle. Pit regains his refuge in Palutena's Temple once [[Chapter 21]] is completed. After the last chapter is completed, Pit can choose which goddess looks after him by entering the new Hidden Options menu on the Main Screen. | |||
===Modes=== | |||
'''Move Out'''<br> | |||
This is where [[Pit]] goes through every time he begins a new chapter or repeats an old one. Venturing out of here takes him to the Chapter selection where the level and the [[Fiend's Cauldron|Intensity]] are selected. | |||
<br><br> | |||
'''Treasure Hunt'''<br> | |||
The Treasure Hunt mode can be accessed to view all current Treasure Hunt panels and their respective unlockables. When a panel has been completed, on returning to Solo Mode you will be automatically taken here to view what you unlocked. The rewards range from [[Idols]] and Weapons to [[Category:Stages|Stages]] and [[Hearts]]. | |||
<br><br> | |||
'''Idol Toss'''<br> | |||
Idol Eggs obtained through battle in Chapters and [[Together Mode]] can be thrown in here replacing the one found in the Vault Menu. The functionality remains the same though. Once thrown and revealed, the Idol received can be examined by reading the information it comes with and the 360° three-dimensional view all Idols offer. | |||
<br><br> | |||
'''Arms Altar'''<br> | |||
''For the main article, see [[Arms Altar]].'' | |||
The Arms Altar contains a multitude of other options as explained above. Here, Pit can purchase items, fuse weapons and convert them for hearts. The purchase of items is in the hands of [[Palutena]] while the converting of weapons is left for a [[Centurion Strongarm]] / [[Urgle]] to do. | |||
<br><br> | |||
'''Gear'''<br> | |||
All weapons and [[Power]]s acquired are accessible from here. Powers can be swapped and altered and also auto-filled, while weapons can be (de)selected as ''favorites'', analyze stats and tried out on a Land Battle area. The Gear option is also accessible through the Arms Altar and Practice Range. | |||
<br><br> | |||
'''Practice Range'''<br> | |||
Here, weapons can be experimented with in both Land and Air practice spaces. The Air section can only be accessed through here, while the Land section is also accessible by selecting a weapon and choosing "Try it Out". The Air Battle testing range features harmless [[Monoeye]]s and [[Komayto]]s while the Land Battle range features an immobile Monoeye in the center of a large circular platform. | |||
