This is a list of orbal arts in Trails of Cold Steel III.
Types of arts:
- Attack: Deals damage to enemies, may have additional effects.
- Recovery: Restores HP or status of allies.
- Support: Grants bonuses to allies or inflicts penalties to enemies.
The following units are used on this page:
- # HP/# EP/# CP: Directly affects a stat
- # range: Max distance between the user and the skill's main target or set point
- # radius/width: Skill affects all targets within a circle with a radius of # units or a line # units wide
- #t: Effect lasts # turns as used by the unit (can be ∞ for indefinite)
- # atk: Effect lasts until attacked # times
- # AT: Effect lasts # action time ticks, an internal value tracking relative delay between turns
- No unit: Power values are internal values and only useful to compare relative intensity, since the damage and healing formulas are more involved.
Cast is the time until the art is used, and Delay is the time until the user gets their next turn after casting.
