Systems
Skills
Skills are special actions that have a wide range of uses, from damaging foes to healing your allies. Each character learns their own set of skills, and up to four skills can be assigned for use in battle. Find the right combination of skills that complements your party members for maximum battle potential.
Custom Parties
Whether playing online or offline, you can build and develop a four-person party befitting of your play style. Each character has access to their own talent tree they can learn new abilities from, as well as weapons and sigils only they can equip. As the captain of the crew, you make the calls.
Link Attacks
Enemies have stun gauges that fill up as they take hits. Once their stun gauge is full, this creates the chance for a link attack—a simultaneous, full-party attack. Performing certain actions in battle increases the party's link level. When link level reaches 100%, executing a successful link attack triggers link time, which temporarily slows down all enemy actions while granting you beneficial status effects. Victory lies in the links made along the way.
Chain Bursts
A Skybound Art is an attack that dishes out tremendous damage on its own, but when chained with the Skybound Arts of other party members, that triggers a damaging aftershock called a chain burst. Whether concentrating firepower on a single dominant threat or blasting swarms of foes, utilizing chain bursts is vital for staying alive.
Online Co-Op
There are over 100 quests waiting to be tackled at a town's quest counter. Each quest has its own objectives and side goals that reward experience and treasure upon completion. These quests can also be played online with other players. Thanks to communication tools such as stickers and emotes, it's a great way to unite with skyfarers from around the world.
Photo Mode
Take photos of your favorite characters and scenes, and use countless filters and settings to capture the memories of your journey exactly the way you want. (Photos are saved as image files.)
Assist Mode
For those who prefer more relaxing gameplay or would like to focus on the story, Assist Mode streamlines combat into the touch of a button, while Full Assist Mode allows your party to handle combat all on their own, making for a truly cinematic experience. Assist Mode can even be used during online co-op and toggled on or off no matter where you are in your adventure.
* Assist Mode and Full Assist Mode were previously unavailable when tackling Maniac and Proud quests in Relink, but they may now be used for all quests—including Chaos quests—up to the end of the story in Endless Ragnarok.
Summons
Call forth the power of enemies and allies alike. Summons provide a new dimension to combat with their own unique attack skills and powerful support abilities.
Primal Bursts
Summon the might of Proto Bahamut and Excavallion. Once certain battle conditions are fulfilled, activate Skybound Arts with all four members of the party to obliterate your foes with a stunning primal burst.
Chaos Quests
Face off against the dread might of the Ragnalia in the most challenging tier of quests yet. Tackling Chaos quests will unfurl a new chapter in the Relink saga and shed light on the fresh chaos consuming Zegagrande.
The Conflux
Solve puzzles and fight your way through a multitude of battles to arrive at the heart of a dimension replete with singular power. Take advantage of special traits and buffs only available in the Conflux to power up your characters and conquer the awaiting trials. Should you succeed in plumbing its depths, you'll obtain a wealth of treasure to enhance your characters and weapons and bring out their true power.
