Photon arts

Photon Arts are the special attacks of PSU. They are items, that are equipped to Weapons, and come in three forms:

• Skills are powerful melee attacks that can often extend a combo. Melee weapons use Skills and Hunters specialize in their use.
• Bullets are passive Photon Arts that change a weapon's Element and give it a special Status Effect that can be inflicted upon enemies. Ranged weapons use Bullets and Rangers specialize in their use.
• TECHNICS are the Magic-equivalent in PSU. They can achieve a number of effects, including healing and elemental damage. Casting weapons use Techniques, and thus, only Forces can use them.

Photon Art Levels

When bought and first equipped, all Photon Arts start at Level 1. By using Photon Arts (that is to say, using them to damage monsters, heal allies and so on - not just using them constantly) they will eventually level up, and a message will appear on the right of the screen to inform you that the Photon Art has levelled up. Upon levelling up, Photon Arts will become more powerful - their damage or healing will increase, the chance of Status Effects happening will increase, the number of combo hits will increase amongst other things.

For Skills there is usually a combo increase once it reaches LV11. You are able to do a second attack immediately after the first by pressing the attack button once more, if timed correctly.
