Characters’ faculties are broken down into the following categories, with numerical values assigned to each. You can check your character's attributes by accessing the Status screen from the main menu.
Characters attributes can be enhanced and weakened by using either battle skills or certain items. Enhancing attributes is called “buffing,” while weakening them is called “”debuffing,”. The attributes that can be buffed and debuffed are as follows: ATK, INT, DEF, MEN, the carious resistance, and critical hit rate. The attribute that gets affected will be denoted above the characters' portraits in battle as either an upward or downward arrow.
When an ally is incapacitated, party members will sometimes become enraged. This means their ATK and INT will temporarily increase and they will exclusively target the enemy who incapacitated that ally. Additionally, there's are role that directly affects the rage activation rate, duration, and power.
