Arts and Skills list
  • About two or so weeks ago, Apopheniac made a list of all arts we've seen. I put together an updated list with what we've seen and learned from the direct and new images on the website. I might've missed something but I tried to be thorough.

    * = can be mastered
    " " = official translation hasn't been seen yet
    (T) = Talent Art
    (CO) = Chain Order Finisher Art

    SKILLS

    Swordfighter Skills

    Sharp Eye - Increases dexterity by 15%.
    Cypher Edge* - Increases critical hit rate by 15%.
    Covert Attack* - Reduces aggro drawn from attacks by 25%.
    Inspiration - Increases damage dealt to bosses and unique by 70%.

    War Medic Skills
    Healing License* - ? (my guess: increases healing power by some percentage)
    Antibody System* - ? (my guess: adds resistance to all debuffs)

    Guardian Commaner Skills
    Protector’s Pride* - ?
    Mind for Guarding* - ? (my guess: increases block rate)

    Taion’s Ouroboros Skills
    Shared Curse – Increases damage dealt for each debuff on all enemies (up to 500%)

    I thought about updating my status effect chart but wasn't sure if we've really seen enough stuff to justify it. The lightning bolt with waves icon (not to be confused with the other lightning bolt field effect icon for blaze) I previously thought was paralysis turns out to be called Damage Link. My best guess as to what that would be is it makes the inflicted take damage when they deal damage like the curse status in Xenosaga 3. There's also a buff called power charge which I'm guessing is pretty much the same thing as supercharge from X.

    @Phendrift they do!
