Each character starts with three skill trees and can obtain two more through some optional side-quests, for a total of five. Each skill tree has five skills available to it, for a total of 25 skills per character. Each character has ONE skill tree active at any one time. SP (Skill Points) obtained from defeating monsters goes into the active skill tree. Once enough SP has been accumulated, the first skill of that skill tree is learnt and SP starts counting towards learning the second skill, and so on and so forth. Once a skill has been learnt it is always active, regardless of whether it is in your current active skill tree or not. You can change your active skill tree at any time, and the SP you obtain from there onwards will go into the skills for that tree. In addition, you recieve bonuses based on which skill tree you have chosen to be active, and how many skills you have learnt from that skill tree. For example, if I have choose Shulk's Humanity tree to be active and have learned nothing from it, I receive a +5 Ether bonus. If I go on to learn the first three skills from it--Healing Wisdom, Kind Encouragement and Friendship Heals-- I'll receive a +30 Ether bonus. _____________ Skill Linking _____________ Skill linking is the process whereby you can have one party member learn skills that are already known by another character. The skills you want to skill link from another character do not have to be in that character's active skill tree. Each character has up to 30 skill links available, being able to link up to five skills from each of the other six characters. Given that each character has 25 skills of their own and 30 available to be skill linked, this makes for a possibility of a whopping 55 skills to be active on a character at any one time. Affinity -------- Initially, characters will only be able to link one skill out of a possible five from another character. The remaining four skill links for those characters will unlock when they have increased their affinity (the game's measure of friendship) by a certain amount. You can see the affinity between two characters in the affinity chart. The affinity stages are as follows, and each stage represents one extra available skill link: Yellow hexagon, green square, blue circle, purple cloud, pink heart. Affinity Coins -------------- Skill linking costs Affinity Coins. Each character is given an Affinity Coin when they level up, and EVERY character is given an Affinity Coin when you kill certain Unique Monsters. Every skill has an Affinity Coin cost associated with it. Skill linking any skill to a character will remove some of their Affinity Coins, but unlinking the skill will bring those Coins back. For example, if Sharla has 20 Affinity Coins and skill links Healing Wisdom from Shulk which costs 8 Coins, she'll be left with 12 Coins. If she subsequently removes Healing Wisdom from her set of skill links, she'll get the 8 Coins back and return to 20 Coins. In this way, you can choose what skills to link without being afraid of being locked into a bad choice. Skill Shapes ------------ Each skill has one of five shapes associated with it, indicated by the skill's icon: Circle, Square, Diamond, Hexagon, Star (technically a hexadecagon, sue me). You are somewhat limited in what skills you're able to link, based on the shape of the skill's icon. When a character wants to skill link to another character, they are given five preset shapes (dependant on the characters) and are only allowed to link skills of those shapes. For example, if Character A wants to link skills from Character B, but the skill link set looks like Hexagon, Circle, Square, Circle, Hexagon then Character A won't be allowed to link any Star-shaped skills from Character B. In addition, Diamond-shaped skills are character-specific and cannot be skill linked. The full list of preset shapes for each character-to-character skill link set is given below. The character on the left wants to link a skill from the character on the right. Remember that, initially, only the first skill shape will be available for the character to skill link. You must increase the affinity between the two characters to gradually unlock the subsequent four skill shapes.

'Always' means it's constantly in effect and is represented by a blue skill icon. 'Battle' means it takes effect only if the character is in the current three-person party. Woop. Target: Self/Party/All Who the skill affects. They're fairly self-explanatory. 'Self' affects only the character who has it active, and these skills are indicated by a single silhouette on the skill icon. 'Party' affects the current party of three if the character is part of it, represented by three silhouettes on the skill icon. Finally, 'All' affects all your characters and is indicated by the word 'ALL' on the skill icon. Shape: Hexagon/Circle/Diamond/Square/Star The shape of the skill icon. This only affects characters who wish to skill link the skill. SP: How many Skill Points (SP) it takes to unlock this skill. SP is gained by killing enemies and exploring new areas. AC: The cost in Affinity Coins (AC) that it takes to link this skill. S R F S D M R: Stands for Shulk, Reyn, Fiora, Sharla, Dunban, Melia and Riki respectively. An 'o' denotes that this character can skill link this skill, whereas an 'x' denotes that they cannot. This is based on the character- to-character skill link sets described in the previous section. For example, the Dunban -> Shulk skill link set does not contain any Hexagon shapes, so Dunban cannot link any Hexagon-shaped skills from Shulk, such as Cheer of a Friend. _______________________________________________________________________________ [01] Shulk _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ Humanity | -- I II III IV V Bonus: Ether Up | +5 +10 +20 +30 +40 +50 ________________|______________________________________________________________ Skill Active Target Shape SP AC | S R F S D M R ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Healing Wisdom Battle Self Hexagon 300 8 - o o o x o o '-> Effect: Healing Arts restore 15% more HP. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Kind Encouragement Battle Self Star 700 7 - o x o o o o '-> Effect: Restores 5% max HP to an encouraged ally. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Friendship Heals Battle Party Circle 1000 20 - o o o o o o '-> Effect: Restores 5% max HP to party after a Chain Attack. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Cheer of a Friend Battle Party Hexagon 2000 45 - o o o x o o '-> Effect: Causes Burst Affinity to fill the Party Gauge by 15. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Chain of Friendship Battle Self Star 3500 45 - o x o o o o '-> Effect: Increases chance of a Chain Link by 15%. _______________________________________________________________________________ Integrity | -- I II III IV V Bonus: Block Rate Up | +2% +4% +6% +8% +10% +15% _____________________|_________________________________________________________ Skill Active Target Shape SP AC | S R F S D M R ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Medium Equipment Always Self Star -- 10 - o x o o o o '-> Effect: Allows Medium Armour to be equipped. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Secret of Life Battle Party Circle 700 20 - o o o o o o '-> Effect: Restores 10% max HP when reviving a party member. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Rewarding Work Always Self Star 1000 3 - o x o o o o '-> Effect: Awards 10% extra EXP when quests are completed. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Resilient Warrior Always Self Circle 2000 11 - o o o o o o '-> Effect: Increases Phys Def and Ether Def by 5%. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ultimate Teamwork Battle Self Star 3500 18 - o x o o o o '-> Effect: Increases Chain Attack damage by 25%. _______________________________________________________________________________ Intuition | -- I II III IV V Bonus: Agility Up | +2 +5 +8 +10 +12 +15 __________________|____________________________________________________________ Skill Active Target Shape SP AC | S R F S D M R ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Battle Cry Battle Party Square 300 13 - o o o o o o '-> Effect: Increases tension gained from Battle Start Affinity by 20. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Underdog Battle Self Circle 700 2 - o o o o o o '-> Effect: (Buff) Increases Agility by 15% for 30.0s when engaging higher level enemies. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Equipment Master Always Self Square 1000 5 - o o o o o o '-> Effect: Reduces the sum of the Weight of armour equipment by 5. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fever Pitch Always All Star 2000 18 - o x o o o o '-> Effect: Increases chance of getting into a fever when gem crafting by 1%.
