Skill Henkawaza (スキル変化技 - "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 PS3 demo version, all available altered artes are learned separately by default, and the required skills are unavailable. Additional altered artes cannot be activated.

Arte Name	Enabled Effects	Elemental Attributes	Fatal Strike	Total Damage (%)	Max Hits	TP Cost	Requirements
Repparanshou 烈破乱掌 (Shredding Palm)	?	-	Red	?	?	26	-
Fuujinrouha 風塵狼破 (Lone Wolf Storm)	Knockdown	Wind	Green	?	3	25	-
	pushes enemies away during the knockdown effect

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 PS3 demo version, Over Limit mode is available up to Level 2 only. Additional burst artes cannot be activated.

Arte Name	Enabled Effects	Elemental Attributes	Fatal Strike	Total Damage (%)	Max Hits	Requirements
