If you haven't done them yet, there's the Forest of Pain and the marriage event. But if you have done them, then there really isn't that much to do :P

...You only have Redemption? You're missing out on the epic of the rest of the games. :P

I, personally, got Volume 1 first, and then the rest in sequential order. Of course, due to the fact that I couldn't find Volume 1 (Rebirth) anywhere in game stores, I ended up ordering it online. :P

Which reminds me... I hope I'm not too late for QUARANTINE...

There are ALOT of challenges you can make, such like using only the initial equipment, not using items, not using awakenings, finishing the game at a low level pretty much every thing you normally use but think you could finish the game without it. There is also the possibility of a speedrun, or mixing 2 or more (No Awakenings, Low Level Speedrun) The only problem with this is that GU overall is HIGHLY level-dependant...it'll take you an eternity to kill an enemy at a low level with only spells, and at a high level you can win even by just pressing X without looking at the screen, so it's not easy to make good challenges and most of them aren't actually hard but only take a long time to finish a single battle.
I've personally done Low Level Speedruns (around 10-12 hours, Redemption finished at lv109), and outside from that, i've had so much fun in Arena fights and against Doppelganger, either beating them with Haseo only and several restrictions or at the fastest time possible, or with team members, not controlling Haseo at all, and not allowing my team members to receive any damage...that one is very fun XD

But yeah, if you haven't played the other GU volumes, you should try to get them and finish them before going to challenges. Not much because you'd miss stuff or wouldn't understand some things, but because...well, you're supposed to play them and finish them first before going for Redemption XD

You should try fighting the doppleganger 5 times by yourself that could be somewhat of a challenge.

Doppelganger Solo Dual Guns Only
Doppelganger Solo No Critical Attack Win In Less Than 120 seconds
Doppelganger Solo No Damage

And all of them without healing (HP or SP), without Awakenings and no Indulgence/Other Self. Now that's what i'd call a challenge :P

This might not be much of a challenge but you could take on The Sweepstakers by yourself using the worst weapons that you can find.

The Sweepstakers Solo Lv110 or Less No Invites

Weapon level doesn't really matter (since all that matters is the P-ATK and at a low level you do crap damage either way), and attachments don't matter much either since they don't work against enemies whose level is at least 5 higher than yours. You just need skill and good strategies XD

I just thought of one go and do the simulation against Cubia without using the scythe.

Nah, the Cubia battle by itself is quite tedious and long already, plus, you actually only use the scythe to hit the main body and it's only alot faster than if you just shot all over...no real difference in challenge, only in time XP
Speaking about Avatar Battles though, No Shoots challenges against most of them are pretty fun...especially against stuff like AIDA Victorian or Corbenik 2nd, and especially more if you add No Damage. I haven't been able to defeat either yet without using shoots and without getting damage XD

I think I am about to take that challenge on with only the scythe. Just took down Victorian without shooting but what Corbenik?

Not challenging, only VERY LONG and EXTREMELY boring, and you could avoid getting hit alot by him at the same time you attack him alot to actually inflict damage out of his healing, but it would last for hours and you don't need to do amazing strategies or anything like that...just attack for hours.

You didn't put Level in there, which makes this a cakewalk at LV. 150 with Venomous Attack.

.....I always forget about the 1-slot ailment attachments >->' I just thought of a battle with a un-customized Gai Gu at lv150, which would be incredibly boring, but yeah, it'd be alot faster with Venomous Attack XD
