BATTLE

～Brave & Default～
Managing the brave points (BP) that determine the number of your actions is the cornerstone of battle in BRAVELY DEFAULT.
Two commands bring a new dimension of enjoyment to battle: braveto expend BP and increase the number of actions taken in a turn, or defaultto shore up your defenses and accumulate BP for later.

▼Brave

Act up to four times in a single, aggressive turn
Annihilate the enemy with an onslaught of attack moves or recover from a sticky situation with a combination of resurrection and healing moves.
You can even take an advance on BP you've yet to store up, though this will drive your BP into the negative and prevent you from further action until it returns to zero--take care not to overplay your hand with thoughtless bravery.


▼Default

Harden your defenses and wait for your chance
Store up BP while lessening damage taken from the enemy.
A turn spent defaulting is also an opportunity to analyze the enemy's actions, invaluable when going up against an unknown foe or a boss.
The enemy is able to brave and default, too; if you see them defaulting in a row, you had better prepare some way to bear the braving to follow.

～Jobs～
During their journey, Tizand company will face off against all sorts of powerful foes.
Defeat such a foe and you might obtain their asterisk, a stone that confers its bearer's job.
Each job has its own specialized fighting style and abilities to learn, so acquiring new jobs opens up exponentially new possibilities to explore in battle.

Configure your party's combination of jobs and abilities to dramatically expand its potential in battle!

Progress through the story and battle new asterisk bearers.

Triumph in battle to claim their asterisk and acquire a new job!

～Abilities～
Raising a job's level offers access to two types of abilities: command abilities that can be used in battle, and support abilities that confer their effects just by being equipped.
You can plan how you want to raise your jobs going forward by checking the job menu to see which abilities different jobs will learn.

▼Command Abilities
With more than twenty jobs to choose from, each character may use a combination of abilities from any two jobs at one time.
Find the combinations that suit your taste, whether it be assembling various attack commands or preparing an assortment of support commands.

Use the monk ability Invigorate to raise your attack power for two turns!

▼Support Abilities
Unlocked support abilities can be equipped regardless of the characters' current jobs.
Progressing through the story will allow you to have more equipped at once.
It's a good idea to reevaluate your setup from time to time as you go up against ever-stronger foes.

With the knight support ability Two-Handed, you can double the attack power of certain weapons by holding them with both hands instead of just one.


Find the combinations that suit you!

Trust your allies to have your back while you pile on the aggression!

～Reliable Companions～
