Dungeon Exploration

In the dungeon, its up to you to safely navigate the party through its accursed halls. Look for chests to find a variety of useful items.

• Equipment: An weapon, armour piece or accessory, can be equipped by a party member to deal more or take less damage or gain another sort of boon.
• Healing Items: Items that heal HP, MP or statuses.
• Battle Items: Items to be used against enemies in battle.
• Manuals/Tomes: Items that teach a new skill to a unit.
• Stat Boosters: Items that directly boost a unit's stats.

The dungeon also has various enemies to avoid or confront. Sometimes the best move is to come back to a foe with better equipment.

• Status: Info on a unit's stats and their equipment.

Battle System

Battles are in turns, the unit with the highest Agility attacks first, then the next highest, then the next highest and so. After everyone takes an action, the cycle resets back to the first unit.

NOTE: Some tougher foes will take more than one action each turn, watch out!

On your turn, select one of the five options available to you.

• Attack: Attack with your equipped weapon.
• Guard: Reduce damage taken by about half until your next turn,
• Skills: Spend MP to use an equipped skill.
• Items: Use an item from the party’s inventory.
• Escape: Run from the battle to fight another day. NOTE: Some foes prevent escape altogether!

Attacks, items and skills will target either one or many allies or foes. Also, remember to watch out for elemental weaknesses and resistances. Sometimes having the right skill or equipment can change the outcome of a battle!
