Special Arts/Spells Key

ABBREV MP Cost Attribute Damage Learn Rank Up Changes Base Effect WHAT IT MEANS The amount of MP subtracted from the characters total for each use. This amount is required to use the special art.

Percentage of characters ATK used in special art damage calculation. Number of times the target is hit during a single attack. How the character learns the special art or spell, either by knowing it inherently, achieving a level, obtaining an item, or completing a Private Action (PA). When a special art is used a certain number of times, there is a chance that the ability will increase in power. When a special art increases in rank, changes occur. The damage may increase, the number of hits per attack may increase, or some other benet may occur. The static amount of damage or recovery sustained by using the special art spell. This amount changes in some situations depending on whether the attack is performed at short or long range. Description of the special art or spell.

Milokeenia is a planet visited only if you select Claude as the protagonist. If Rena is chosen, please skip ahead to the Sacred Forest location in this walkthrough. After Claudes father, Ronyx, gives him the Phase Gun special art, the landing party continues north. Outside the mysterious entrance, examine the twinkling column on the left Examine the control panel to to open the massive door.

Inside the cave, speak to the other ofcers. Next, head north until Claude nds some strange machinery. His foolhardiness triggers a rift, sending Claude far from Milokeenia.
Ensigns should never travel with the away team.

LOOK FOR NIMBLE FINGERS

The Nimble Fingers talent makes the Pickpocketing specialty easier to perform. Pickpocketing allows your protagonist to steal extra items and equipment from NPCs in towns and cities. Whether you choose Claude or Rena, press the J button to open the menu at the rst opportunity. Scroll down the Status screen to see if Nimble Fingers is among the protagonists talents. Without the Nimble Fingers talent, the chances of Pickpocketing success are next to none. If your protagonist does not have the Nimble Fingers talent, consider starting over if you want to pickepocket NPCs. The chances of Claude or Rena knowing Nimble Fingers from the start are good, but the chances are much slighter that they may learn Nimble Fingers later on.

Upon leaving Arlia village for the rst time, the player may notice the words Private Action in the upper-right corner of the screen, along with the I icon. This display appears whenever the character is approaching a town or city where Private Actions (PAs) are available.
PAs such as the ones where new characters are recruited occur regardless of protagonist choice.
Most Private Actions occur based on the players choice of protagonist, either Claude or Rena. However, some PAs occur regardless of protagonist choice. During Private Actions the player may be called upon to make choices in dialog. Certain dialog choices reward the player with bonus items. Some choices made during Private Actions can add or subtract Friendship Points (FP) and/or Romance Points (RP). These two numbers combine into a score called Affection, which is used to determine the endings viewed upon defeating Gabriel in Phynal. For more information about these points, check the Character Relations section in Chapter 2: Game Play.
The Private Action logo and icon display whenever the player character approaches a town or city where PAs occur.
To engage in a Private Action, press the I button while standing outside a town or city. The party disperses and enters the location as individuals rather than a group. Only the protagonist remains in the party. The party members appear at various spots throughout the town or city. Sometimes, approaching them or speaking to them triggers a scene.
The locations of each Private Action scene are marked on the maps in this section according to number. If a Private Action you wish to view does not occur where and when it is supposed to, then the game may have loaded a different Private Action that you must view rst. Try searching other parts of the town to trigger other PAs. After viewing a Private Action, you will need to exit town before another Private Action will occur.
Party members appear in cities and towns during PAs. You can even try to pickpocket them!
Deciding which Private Actions to take part in is important if you want to see specic endings. The way the game determines which endings are viewed is based on a priority system and the FP and RP accumulated between characters. The priority list is as follows: Claude, Rena, Celine, Bowman, Dias, Precis, Ashton, Leon, Opera, Ernest, Noel, Chisato, and Welch. In this order, the game will group together couples with a shared relationship point value above 10. For characters of the same gender, Friendship Points are used whereas Romance Points are used for characters of the opposite gender. Ties are determined based on priority. Characters without a relationship of at least 10 points will be given solo endings.
