ToV X360 (Demo) - Estelle: Artes


 * Please note that some of the information listed on this page is copied from the data available for the final release of the XBox 360 version of Tales of Vesperia. Many things have changed during the creation of its demo version.

Skill Changes (スキル変化技 - Skill Henkawaza - "Altered Artes")
Altered Artes are activated in place of their original arte during battle, if the required skills are equipped. After the original arte has been used more than 100 times (or more than 50 times for magic artes), the altered version will be learned as a separate arte, which no longer requires the skills to be equipped.

In the XBox 360 demo version, all available altered artes are learned separately by default, and the required skills are unavailable. Additional altered artes cannot be activated.

Skill Changes (スキル変化魔術 - Skill Henka Majutsu - "Altered Magic Artes")
Altered Artes are activated in place of their original arte during battle, if the required skills are equipped. After the original arte has been used more than 100 times (or more than 50 times for magic artes), the altered version will be learned as a separate arte, which no longer requires the skills to be equipped.

In the XBox 360 demo version, all available altered artes are learned separately by default, and the required skills are unavailable. Additional altered artes cannot be activated.

Burst Artes (バーストアーツ)
Burst Artes can be activated only while Over Limit mode is active. The burst arte duration, damage, and effects are increased with Over Limit levels, with maximum effects at Level 3. Similar to altered artes, burst artes can be "altered" if the correct skills are equipped. However, these elemental burst artes cannot be learned separately. All burst artes are activated by holding the "Artes" button during any arcane or altered arte.

In the XBox 360 demo version, Over Limit mode is available up to Level 2 only. Additional burst artes cannot be activated.
