How to Set Traits

Settings Overview

The [Traits] parameter for actors, classes, weapons, armors, enemies and states define the unique properties and functions for each type of data.

The 24 types of properties that can be given are found below. By giving these properties according to the contents of the data you wish to create, you can give the various types of data complex traits.

Traits for classes, weapons, armors and states will be reflected in a character's traits when that character has that type of data added (equipped).

Furthermore, please be careful when configuring traits that permanently restrict actions. For example, a weapon which is set to [Lock Equip] cannot be removed once an actor equips it.

Setting Traits

To set a trait, double-click an empty row in the Traits field. Select the property type in the displayed window, and specify what effects are applied.

The property details will be displayed in the [Traits] list. You can re-edit the contents of properties by double-clicking the item. Additionally, you can perform actions such as copying the settings and deleting them in the context menu that is displayed when you right-click a trait.

Contents of Each Trait

[Rate] Tab

Element Rate: Change the damage received when an attack contains an element. Specify the desired element and its rate (0 to 1000%). An attack's damage will become larger than normal if the rate is set over 100%, indicating that this character is weak against the specified element.
Debuff Rate: Change the success rate of items and skills which have a [Debuff] effect when used. Specify the desired parameter and the change of success (0 to 1000%, 100% means no change).
State Rate: Change the success rate of items and skills which have an [Add State] effect when used. Specify the desired state and the change in rate of success (0 to 1000%, 100% means no change).
State Resist: Negates the specified state. If [Knockout] is selected, a character will not be knocked out even when their HP reaches 0.

[Param] Tab

Parameter: Raises and lowers parameters such as Max HP, and Attack Power at a fixed rate. Specify the desired parameter and the change (0 to 1000%, 100% means no change).
Ex-Parameter: Raises and lowers the values of extra parameters such as Hit Rate and Evasion Rate. Specify the desired parameter and the percentage to add (-100 to 100%, starting value is 0%).
Sp-Parameter: Raises and lowers the values of special parameters such as Target Rate and Guard Rate. Specify the desired parameter and the change (0 to 1000%, starting value is 100%).

[Attack] Tab

Attack Element: Adds the specified element to normal attacks.
Attack State: Adds an effect of changing states to normal attacks. Specify the effect and the change in rate of success (0 to 1000%, 100% means no change).
Attack Speed: Raises and lowers agility when choosing a normal attack in battle. Specify the raise/lower value (-999 to 999).
Attack Times: Increases the number of times (1 time normally) a target is damaged using normal attacks. Specify the amount to increase.

[Skill] Tab

Add Skill: Makes the specified skill usable.
Seal Skill: Makes the specified skill unusable.

[Equip] Tab

Equip Weapon: Makes the specified weapon type able to be equipped.
Equip Armor: Makes the specified armor type able to be equipped.
Lock Equip: Makes it so that equipment for the specified slot cannot be changed. Use this when you do not want to change the equipment of an actor that is temporarily in the party.
Seal Equip: Prevents equipment from being equipped in the specified slot. This allows you to create things such as "Two-handed Weapons" which seals shield equipment and "Full-body Clothing" that seals head equipment.
Slot Type: This can be only set to [Dual Wield]. In exchange for not being able to equip a shield, characters can equip two weapons.

[Other] Tab

Action Times +

Sets the chance of raising the number of actions during battle by 1 using the specified probability. If a character has multiple entries for this trait, each instance will be calculated separately on whether to increase the number of actions using the specified probability. For example, if a character has two of these traits with a probability of 50% each, the chance of the number of actions increasing 2 times, and the chance of actions not increasing even 1 time will both be 25% (50% x 50%).
