Equipment Skills
![]() | Valkyrie EP: 20 A very versatile skill from the Highlance enabling combos based on Stagger. Attacks fast and staggers. Deals more damage if the enemy has high HP. May trigger a follow-up attack. |
![]() | Berserk EP: 20 Hydra Slayer skill. Attacks multiple times with random targets. Deals more damage if the user has taken damage. Crits stagger. |
![]() | Spectral Hammer EP: 20 Equip the Polar Eclipse staff to use this skill. Attacks with heavy damage based on MAG. Slow. |
![]() | Aim for the Soul EP: 20 The skill a legendary bow provides. Deals ranged damage based on MAG. Deals more damage to poisoned targets. Crits deal even more damage. |
![]() | Vampyric Kiss EP: 20 A legendary scythe enables you to use this powerful skill. Deals dark damage and drains some HP. Deals more damage if the enemy has low HP. |
![]() | Starlight Attack EP: 20 Secret skill. Attacks and staggers all enemies. Deals more damage to non-bosses. |
![]() | Radiance EP: 20 The skill enables by holding the Cerulean Mirror shield. Deals holy damage to all enemies thrice. Grants 5 EP per hit on an enemy weak to holy. Crits blind. |
![]() | Flame Juggler EP: 20 Legendary gloves enable throwing fire balls like an Italian plumber. Deals fire damage based on STR to multiple targets. Crits burn. |
![]() | Arcane Frost EP: 20 Deals ice damage to 3 random targets with a high-EP damage bonus. Crits cool. No idea what’s arcane about it, though. Are all wizardly things considered a little arcane? |
![]() | Tar Trap EP: 20 Another tool from the Ranger’s Handbag. (A ranger should always know where their handbag is.) May trigger at the end of a turn, which deals anti-heavy damage to all enemies and tars. Slow. |
![]() | Harvest HP: 250 A skill that costs HP instead of EP. (Welcome to the dark side!) Deals dark damage to all enemies. Deals more damage if the enemy has low HP. Crits generate EP. |
![]() | Plasma Beam EP: 20 Deals neutral damage and removes buffs. Deals more damage to staggered enemies. Um, does anyone know what plasma actually is? |
![]() | Pantheon Raises Attack Times, BAR and EVA of all heroines. A very versatile skill you — and your opponents — should not underestimate. |
![]() | Haughty Grin The user taunts and counters attacks. You can grin haughtily just so, of course, but this skill grants it some magical properties or something. |
![]() | Northern Lights Raises elemental damage dealt and healing received. You may want to try really nailing the theme by using a certain snow-storm skill with Northern Lights. Should be pretty effective … |
![]() | Iris Raises elemental damage taken. Also doubles ranged damage taken for beasts and dragons. Obviously, this makes dealing with beasts and dragons a lot easier, but even in other encounters, this is very useful. |
![]() | Underworldly Power Raises MAG and Crit Rate, but degenerates HP. At the end of a turn, attacks staggered enemies. Who says legendary heroines can’t dip their feet in the devil’s water every once in a little while? (Get the reference? Great song!) |
![]() | Pathfinder Raises Action Times until the end of next turn. Slow. Well, two actions in a turn is nothing to sneeze at, as the expression goes. |
![]() | Soothing Breeze Removes debuffs. Regenerates HP until taking damage or for a number of turns. Taking damage can’t be entirely avoided, but maybe someone else could take a hit or two instead of your most injured heroine? |
![]() | Liquid-Metal Skin Raises the user’s DEF and BAR, but slows. Ever tried a full-blown taunt strategy? Might be fun! |
![]() | Etheral Chant Generates 25 EP for all heroines and raises MAG and BAR. May not seem that flashy, but remember that this is practically a 25% damage boost. |
![]() | Pixy Roundel Berserks. Raises STR, but lowers DEF and BAR. Best used on a character who attacks a lot anyway. So let’s distract Billie with some pixies, shall we, and watch the boss’s HP go down like nothing. |
![]() | Lily Sigil Lowers EP and seals attacks. Instead of generating EP, the enemy degenerates EP. This will become a lot more useful later in the game, trust me. |
![]() | Enigma Field Raises Critical Hit Rate and Evasion Rate of all heroines. Feeling lucky today? Well, feel even luckier with this buff active! |
Finishers
![]() | Gracious Nova EP: 100 Fully restores HP of all heroines and removes debuffs. Don’t use this too hastily. Wait for the perfect time to make the most out of it. |
![]() | Meteor EP: 100 Deals fire damage and staggers. Certain hit. Slow. Deals massive damage when combined with any damage-increasing effect. |
![]() | Blizzard EP: 100 Deals ice damage to all enemies a number of times. Deals more damage to floating enemies. Certain hit. Great against a large number of enemies. But also not bad against a single one. |
![]() | Pulse Surreal EP: 100 Generates EP for all other heroines and raises EP Generation at the end of a turn. This is arguably a little imbalanced, but it’s kinda supposed to be. |
Inspire Skills: Celsia
![]() | Flame EP: 20 Deals fire damage and burns. Pretty straight-forward JRPG skill, huh? |
![]() | Frost EP: 20 Deals ice damage and cools (doubles melee damage taken). The ice equivalent of ‘Flame’. It also raises the damage the inflicted enemy takes, but in another way. |
![]() | Shine EP: 20 Deals holy damage and blinds. A more defensive option as far as the status effect is concerned. Doesn’t help much against mage-type enemies, though. |
![]() | Shade EP: 20 Deals dark damage and hazes (lowers MAG). I don’t know what kind of shade is summoned here, but it might very well be one of those cute little fellows from the House of Hades rushing to aid you. Who knows! |
Inspire Skills: Billie
![]() | Swoop EP: 20 Deals melee damage to an enemy. There’s not much else to say about this skill. It just hits an enemy and deals 600% damage. |
![]() | Swipe EP: 20 Deals melee damage to all enemies. 300% to be precise, which isn’t bad. Billie’s ‘inspirations’ may not be the most brilliant ones – hitting one enemy or all of them seems rather natural –, but they get the job done. |
Inspire Skills: Ariel
![]() | Innervate EP: 20 Restores HP based on the target’s EP and removes debuffs. Please note that some bosses may also use this skill, making EP denial/burning even more important. |
![]() | Taunt EP: 0 Taunts and raises Evasion Rate. Ariel, being the character with the HP-regen passive, can be used as a tank (a character who draws the attention of the enemies and takes damage for weaker allies) quite effectively. |
![]() | Flare EP: 0 Raises STR, MAG and Attack Times, but also EP Costs. Perfect for characters whose damage output is very high even without a finisher. There’s that sword, for example … |
![]() | Shrink EP: 0 Lowers STR and DEF. Sometimes, a simple spell will do. |
![]() | Baffle EP: 0 Lowers MAG and BAR. It’s a funny word, ‘baffle’, isn’t it? |
To be continued.
