Abilities

Abilities

Each character and Eidolon have special abilities. There are two types: command abilities that can be used as commands, and auto abilities that, once learned, will always be in effect. The general effects are shown as icons.

Learning and Using Abilities

When an ability is unlocked, you can spend AP (Ability Points) to learn it.

Learning Abilities

1. Check a Relic Terminal

2. Select Promotion

3. Select Abilities*

4. Choose a character to learn an ability

5. Select the ability you want the character to learn

*When you want an Eidolon to learn an ability, select Eidolons

Getting AP
Method Who Gets AP Amount
Level increase Character who has had a level increase 1–8

Using Command Abilities

Equipped command abilities can be used by pressing the assigned buttons. However, most command abilities will use a certain amount of the Ability Gauge (AG) when used, so be careful.

Tips to Remember!

The Ability Gauge will be used when you use Block or use the Triad Maneuver, or if you switch the character you are controlling.

When you enter a Recovery Portal, the Ability Gauge will be entirely replenished.
