Spirit Points

Spirit Points are a major gameplay element, and required in order to perform actions in battle.

Information

They are shared in a pool among the party and based on the "Spirit" and "MaxSp." stats for each character, which increase at given levels.

In battle, spirit points are gained at the beginning of each new turn, and can be used for actions. These are listed below:

Party Battles

In battles on the deck of your ship, or in a dungeon, spirit points are used on Super Moves and Magic and can be replenished either by Focus or by use of the item Aura of Valor. The amount of spirit earned by each character each turn, as well as the spirit gained by focusing is equal to their "Spirit" stat.

Super Moves

Below is a list of each character's Super Moves and the Crew Sp. Moves from, as well as their Spirit cost:

Magic

Magic in Skies of Arcadia is different to many other games, where every spell costs only 1 MP to cast, and only the number of spirit points required changes. To cast most spells during a ship battle, you must obtain the magic cannon from defeating Belleza.

Spirit Increases

During the course of the game, the number of spirit points available to each party member, and thus the entire party, will increase upon levelling. These point increases happen at pre-determined levels for each character.

While each character's maximum spirit will increase to a point where for Vyse, Aika and Fina they can have a maximum of 25 spirit points and the other 3 characters can have a maximum of 24 (for a total of 99 with 4 characters), spirit values per turn max out at 20 per character. Vyse's spirit increases faster than all other characters, followed by the other characters (who all have the same growth), Aika and Fina.

The levels at which spirit gain is increased for each character are listed below:

Ship Battles

Unlike in standard party battles, in ship battles, spirit points are required to perform any action except "Evasive Action" and "Focus". However, in ship battles, the ship's own spirit comes into play also, augmenting the spirit of the party. This is 2 SP for the Little Jack and 4 SP for the Delphinus.

Trivia

• Drachma is the only character that cannot use all of his own Super Moves without any other party members. This is because the supporting characters only have 24 Max SP while Hand of Fate requires 25.
