Descriptions and innate skills

Tutorial

Going forward, be sure to regularly check the descriptions of classes, weapons and skills by pressing .

Almost everything has changed within this version of the game, so obtaining valuable information will often times be crucial.

Weapon/item descriptions will show important stat modifiers or bonuses, including benefits gained while playing on each version.

And finally, skills will provide information on effects, cooldowns, and innate bonuses they may be providing to the unit.

Innate versions of various skills are granted to those who initially have the skill by default. For example, Vantage normally can only trigger when the unit is at 50% HP or lower. However, the innate version allows it to remain active at all times.

While this does offer incentive for units to keep default skills, it also means that temporarily unassigning skills can be done freely at any time.

Even if you were to remove Laura's Vantage, she can then later re-equip it with no capacity cost and retaining the innate bonus!

Helpful Tips carried here — 2

Unit Death

Helpful Tip

Non-crucial playable units who are defeated will have their inventory and equipped skills sent to convoy. Be sure to leave enough room in case this happens.

Shields

Helpful Tip

Some classes, such as soldiers or armored knights, gain an additional bonus while holding a shield. Keep in mind that class bonuses won't appear as active within the base.
