Cure Point (キュアポイント Kyuapointo?), shortened to CP, is a gameplay mechanic exclusive to Tales of Arise. It governs the usage of non-offensive artes as well as that of map actions.
Function[]
The Cure Points mechanic was introduced to the game as a way to promote strategic use of artes. In addition to AG, CP is used to govern the use of support artes, like Sharpness, in battle and healing artes, like First Aid, in both field and battle. It is also used to execute map actions, with a tutorial for each map action taking 5% of maximum CP from the maximum pool and subsequent uses of the map actions taking 10% of the maximum value.
There are several ways to restore CP: through the use of items, like Orange Gels that restore 30% of its maximum value, and while resting at camps and inns, restoring the value to full.
The maximum CP value is a sum of each party member's level plus number of Astral Flowers obtained, most of which are obtained from slaying Giant Zeugles, multiplied by ten and finally with fifty more points added as a base value. CP caps at 950 points.
