Areus

Areus is a limited collaboration Partner in Arcaea, added in Chapter 2 of the Arcaea x CHUNITHM collaboration.

== Gameplay ==
=== Stats by level ===
=== Skill ===
Areus' skill uses a modified version of the HARD Recollection Gauge, where the Rate loss for a LOST note will increase depending on the length of the broken combo.
The Rate loss per LOST note becomes
\text{Rate change per LOST} = \text{Standard Rate change per LOST} + \text{RF} \cdot \frac{\text{Combo before LOST}}{4} \,,
where RF is the Recollection Factor, i.e. the standard Rate gain per PURE note.
Clearing songs with Areus' skill gives a hard (red) Clear.
When using Areus in Lost Chapter: Beyond, FAR notes will incur the same Rate loss as default HARD Gauge Partners, with no additional penalty based on combo.
==Trivia==
* Areus is an original playable character in CHUNITHM. They debuted in CHUNITHM AMAZON ep.III as part of the Metaverse character universe, with their signature song Climaxhttps://gamerch.com/chunithm/entry/488067https://gamerch.com/chunithm/entry/487295.
** Their name in Japanese is アレウス (Areusu). Their full name in CHUNITHM is 憎悪の戦神 アレウス ("War God of Hatred, Areus")
** Their partner art in Arcaea comes directly from CHUNITHM.
** Areus' gender is not specified in any official CHUNITHM media. Guy however has commented that "Areus is a god, not a male human"Comment by Guy on Discord.
* Areus' name in Greek ("Αρεως") means "of Ares". Ares (Αρης) was the god of war in Ancient Greek mythology. This follows the mythological naming scheme of numerous CHUNITHM Metaverse characters.
* Like their Arcaea skill, Areus' 憎悪の咆哮 ("Roar of Hatred") skill in CHUNITHM causes immediate song fail under harsher than normal conditions that depend on combo.
* The stats of all three CHUNITHM Collaboration Chapter 2 partners are permutations of each other at all levels from Lv 1-20, being a permutation of 47/47/61 at Lv 1 and 70/70/90 at Lv 20. Areus focuses on STEP (vs Isabelle Yagrush's FRAG focus and Seele Haze's OVER focus).
