Talondown Arena is located aboard The Firebird and is a place to battle and train Spirit Beasts. It is also accessible from a twisted stone doorframe in Wyvern Plaza within the Ravelin near Ta'Vaalor and a magical door located on Glaes Street in Kharam Dzu on Teras Isle. Accessing Talendown Arena from Teras or the Ravelin will not give access to the rest of The Firebird; exiting through the passage will return the character to its respective originating town.

Talendown Arena consists of the six rooms just below the title of the map. Through the gate is the arena stands, where one may WATCH to get a list of who is battling in the arena. WATCH (person) will watch that battle.

To the northeast is the Cashier, where one may trade in redsteel marks for items. INQUIRE to access the options with the NPC, ORDER to see items for sale.

To the northwest is the Pit Boss. INQUIRE with her to see the battle options.

Blood Matches

In the Blood Pit, health is tied to that of the Spirit Beast, and death may occur. Battles may be done with other players or NPCs. Winning a Blood Match will earn redsteel marks. The NPC trainers are will match their beasts' levels.

Training Matches

Fight either a friend or NPC of the same skill and beast level for 3000 silvers per person. Beasts receive a bonus 100 experience for every fight won in the Training Arena.

Listed Fights

Every week, the Talondown gives a mysterious prize to the winner of its listed matches (resets overnight Sunday). Players get six fight tokens a week by checking in. Listed fights can only be played against other players. Every fight lost costs two tokens; every fight won gains one extra. Players accrue points by winning and whoever is at the top of the leaderboard by the week's end wins.

Weekly Challenges

Every week the arena sets out seven of its deadliest trainers to fight (resets overnight Sunday). The NPC trainers do not level-match, and they are not nice. Defeating all seven will earn a radiant bestial soulstone and a quantity of redsteel marks. Players have the entire week (Sunday-Saturday) to defeat all seven NPC trainers.
