Affinities

Melee and Magic based Skills will oftentimes possess an elemental Affinity which deals double or half damage to certain kinds of enemies based on their innate weaknesses.

Using a Skill that an enemy is weak to will grant an Encore that lets the user perform another action before their turn ends. Enemies are also able to receive an Encore by dealing effective elemental damage.

Elemental Affinities in Submerged Mystery: Takodachi are classified as Fire, Aqua, Elec, Wind, Light, and Dark.

Skills are divided into three categories, Melee, Magic, and Assist. Melee Skills require a percentage of the user's HP in order to be used and the damage is determined by the user's Strength stat as well as the enemy's Defense stat.

Magic Skills require a fixed amount of the user's MP in order to be used and the damage is determined by the user's Magic stat as well as the enemy's Resistance stat.

Assist Skills require a fixed amount of the user's MP in order to be used and perform a variety of effects such as raising stats, lowering the enemy's stats, recovering health, and more.
