Chain Craft

Chain Craft (チェインクラフト) is an addition to the craft system introduced and only used in Trails in the Sky SC and the 3rd.

Description

Chain Crafts allows two to four characters to chain together their attacks. Characters joining in later will do more damage but their attacks will also consume more CP. The Chain Craft's target must be within the range of the attackers. The radius of the Chain Craft will increase as more characters join the chain. Battle order bonuses further strengthen Chain Crafts. To maximise damage output with the final attacker, it is recommended to use Agate, Zin, or another similar high strength character last.

Mechanics

Character	CP Cost	Power	Targets
1st	20	100%	—
2nd	30	110%	Circle around target (1 radius)
3rd	40	120%	Circle around target (2 radius)
4th	50	130%	Circle around target (3 radius)

• Power is a multiplier applied to the character's STR.
• After the craft is executed, delay is applied to all participants.
• In addition, some characters have additional effects:
  • Julia will attack every target in range twice.
  • Mueller will attack the main target twice.

Trivia

• In the Evolution versions, Chain Crafts benefit from the Zero Craft bonus.
• In Trails from Zero and to Azure, the Team Rush AT bonus works the same as a Chain Craft with no CP cost.
