Weapon Skills
[Jiggs 12-01-2002 8:15 PM]
During the battle, the player gains tactical points (TP). When it reaches certain amount, you can learn weapon skills. Only close range weapons can use weapon skills. TP can be charged up to 300% maximum. To use weapon skills, your TP has to be at 100% or larger. When you use a weapon skill, your TP will go down to zero. When the TP is larger than 100%, and the weapon skill is used, the rest of the TP will go towards more damage or more effectiveness. TP will gradually decrease if not used.
