@Aerodynamisch well.....i saved ion and natalia in daath and took the ship and went to that port thing in snowy side villager and there is nothing about it....they haven't taught me anything except fof and even that they didn't do a good job at....i guess that's how most rpg are you have to figure stuff out and search for it, like the elusive mayfly known as love exits the cocoon in it's new body and spreads it's wi potato

[Aerodynamisch]

@thecomputerist I believe Ion explained it at some point. Whenever I have questions about a game I just go to GameFAQS.

So far I have finished all the KH games including spinoff and want KH 3D!

[Aerodynamisch]

@thecomputerist Ah no worries! I have to say I just equipped them and thought that they lead to one-time only stat increase. But GameFaqs states it is indeed a stat boost for each level up.

[thecomputerist]

@Aerodynamisch i need to phrase my questions better, but anyway, so they give you more of one/multiple stats when you level up, but what about enhancement, does it grow when you level up or do you need to use c cores ? and i knew that it has nothing to do with artes....BTW where did you learn all this from, since the game doesn't do such a good job in explaining it, have you by any chance played any kingdom hearts games ?

[Aerodynamisch]

@thecomputerist Cap Cores are items for stat bonuses. Nothing to do with skills/spells. You can find the Cap. Cores. Later in the game you get some better ones which have +3/+4 on multiple stats.

[thecomputerist]

@Aerodynamisch but wait. caracity cores give you the a plus of their attribution when you level up, so if you have a c core for +1 p attack and you level up you get another 1 to your normal parameter level up, and does enhancement level up on it's own ? i've been searching for so long, but i couldn't find anything. thanks for the help man !

[Aerodynamisch]

@thecomputerist Yea, you have to experiment with it. If you go in the skills menu, you see the element of the skill (Fire/Ice etc.) and that gives you a clus which color FOF to use. But not all the skills are able to turn into a FOF.

Normal skills are gained by leveling up and later on doing some sidequests.

I spammed the hell out of Raging Blast, Guardian Field.

[thecomputerist]

@Aerodynamisch i understand how fof word when you have them for an arte and it tells you use this fof for another move, but for other artes you don't have it, so do you have to find it yourself?

[Aerodynamisch]

@thecomputerist Ah no worries. There is not a big time leap in Abyss. Nothing noteworthy. I am a big fan of the Tales of series, 22 hours in is pretty far, the game took me about 38 hours or so.

Throughout the game the characters grew on me, and there are some twists and turns.

FOF artes are hard at first for me too. Some skills can be upgraded by activiating them inside a colored circle. One good combo is Guardian Field inside a blue/ice circle which gives you the powerful Guardian Frost!

@Aerodynamisch tales of the abyss.....i've been playing it for 22 hours in the last 5 days and i still can't get into it as much as other rpg(* cough* ff7) so will it get any more interesting? and there is one think i didn't get, are you supposed to find fof for artes yourself or will they come up after a number of uses ?
