Overview

• Flame Tech S Charge significantly reduces charge time of Fire Techs.
• Fire, as its name should imply, causes the burn status effect. Enemies inflicted with it will take a percent of their max health every few seconds.
  • This effect can spread to other nearby enemies as well (and should you be burned, you can also inflict a person in your group with it as well).
  • The effect is similar to poison. Poison tends to have slower ticks and lasts a bit longer. Each tick does more damage compared to fire too. Poison cannot be spread to other enemies/allies though.

• If you graze enemies with the edge of the projectile, the projectile will continue onward until the center hits something or the projectile reaches its maximum distance.
  • The "graze" is actually rather generous. If you're free-aiming the projectile, you can typically just jump up a bit and aim straight ahead to hit most smaller targets in a line.
• Max projectile distance is about 50m charged, 40m uncharged.
  • 50m is similar to your max lock on distance coincidentally.
  • Compared to other projectiles, such as Megid, Foie has a fixed maximum distance.

• When charged, 34% damage per hit, up to 3 hits per cast. So total damage is actually 102% of the listed power.
  • Status rate applies in a similar way, 34% per hit, up to 3 hits. A total of 102% of the listed rate.
• Like almost all created fields, you cannot change the angle of attack. It will always have the same orientation.
• Prioritizes hitting weakpoints, especially if cast at a similar height to the weakpoint.
• Since it has a long animation, you can start casting it at a spot before a mob appears to have them start taking damage immediately.
  • Each cast doesn't cancel out the other. Casting multiple times in succession will create multiple overlapping fields.

• Uncharged does 33% of the listed power, charged does as listed.
• Has a very long range. Using free aim, it can hit targets up to about twice the lock on distance. It also hits targets behind a wall if you are locked onto it
• If you kill an enemy and another spawns right after in the same position, rafoie may still hit the freshly spawned mob if it spawns quickly enough.

• 1 hit uncharged. 3 hits charged.
  • Each hit does 34% of the listed power when charged.
    • The status effect rate is similar; 34% of the listed status effect rate per hit.
• Doesn't have much range, both horizontally and vertically. Much like Gibarta or any technique that creates a field, you also cannot adjust the angle of it unless it's cast from a different height.
  • For a more specific range, the charged range is about 8m, which is half of Gibarta's charged range. (Should be exact, but target hitboxes can alter this a bit.)
  • Unlike Gibarta however, using it with a talis does allow you to change the angle of the attack if you're locked on with a talis.
  • The lack of angle correction can make it easier to hit certain weak parts that don't have lockon otherwise. One example is De Malmoth's back.
• Contrary to its animation, the hits all come simultaneously out in a small field in front of you.

• Upon reaching an enemy, you will stop.
• If you are targeting or locked on to an enemy and another blocks your path, you will be stopped.
• If you are targeting or locked on to an enemy, you can move vertically.
• You have super armor during the movement part of the tech.
• You do 25% of the listed power during the dash, and 3-4 hits of 25% listed power at the end.
  • The hits from the "nova" seem to cover 180 degrees of where you're facing at the end of the dash.
  • The 5th hit seems to occur if it does travel some distance (about 3/4ths its full length) then comes to a stop. One or two from the dash, three or four from the explosion. Not sure if you actually need to stop or if another hit occurs at roughly that distance.
• The force skill Talis tech bonus does not apply.

Nafoie

Nafoie ナ・フォイエ	Advanced fire technique. Shoot a condensed ball of fire which causes flames to arise from the area of impact.

• The projectile travels in a somewhat slow arc/parabola shape to its destination.
  • If used with a thrown talis however, the projectile simply drops straight down.
• Hitting a target does one powerful hit. If the projectile hits the ground, it causes a small field of fire to erupt and do hits of minor damage.
  • This behavior is the same charged or uncharged. The charged projectile is slightly larger and the field lasts longer.
  • Specifically, hitting a target directly with the projectile does the listed power. The field created by a charged nafoie does 5 hits of 13% listed power over a duration of about 3 seconds. Uncharged, it's 50% of the listed power for a direct hit, and 2 hits of about 6% listed power over about 1 second.
• The max horizontal distance of the projectile is roughly 30M. Same max distance charged or uncharged. The projectile is alive for approximately 1.5s.
  • The fire field is approximately 10M in length for both charged and uncharged; the width is a fan/cone shape.

Ilfoie

Name	Description

• Power is as listed for charged, 40% for uncharged. The range of the impact itself is a bit smaller than the circle of the animation while charging.
• Locks you in place as it charges.
• Approximately 1.5s delayed impact after casting.
  • Use free aim to aim ahead of a target that may be moving. Still has a max cast range of 30m though, charged or uncharged.
• The explosion does linger for a bit, like Rafoie does. You can hit multiple spawning enemies with it.
• If used with a talis, you cannot aim it. Ilfoie will drop where the talis is set.
• Knocks down monsters that can be knocked down.
• Is obstructed by any wall that may be between you and your target.
• If you switch weapons before Ilfoie's projectile actually hits/ makes impact, it will not do anything except waste PP. This is true of any technique that has delayed damage or lingers.

Shifta

• Default max duration is 1 minute.
  • S4:Support Extension from Atlas Exocet and Atlas Exocet Ex increases the max duration to 2 minutes.
  • Techer skill Extend Assist increases the max duration to 3 minutes.
  • The above effects do not stack. The maximum possible duration is still 3 minutes.
• Gain 15 seconds per pulse/tick by default.
  • Fighter skill Adrenaline and its skill ring version increase the duration gained per pulse/tick to 45 seconds for the recipient only.
    • This only applies to yourself. You need to have the skill to get increased duration per pulse/tick. Shifta can be casted by anyone and the effect will still apply.
  • Techer skill Long-Time Assist increases the duration gained per pulse/tick to 45 seconds from your own Shifta only.
    • Unlike Adrenaline, this only applies to your own Shifta, and everyone who receives your Shifta will get the increased duration, including yourself.
• Boosts your base attack by 10% of the stated amount (at level 17, it's 19.7%).
  • "Base attack" is attack from your skill trees, main/subclass level, title rewards, and your Mag.
  • If you have the Techer skill Shifta Advance maxed, level 17 Shifta boosts your base attack by 1.25 * 19.7% = 24.625%.
• Fire element mastery from force skill tree does not boost Shifta's power.
• This does affect AIS and Dark Blast (PSO2).
  • Doesn't affect stationary turrets however.
• The best properties of all Shiftas used are taken into account. If your Shifta is weaker, using your Shifta will only extend the duration. This means that even if your Shifta is worse or better in some parts, using multiple Shiftas will keep the strongest properties of the buff. If a Techer hits you with a completely maxed Shifta (level 17, maxed Shifta Critical, maxed Shifta Advance, etc.), you can keep it indefinitely by extending the duration with your own Shifta.
• Like most other support techniques, casting any support technique that isn't Zondeel prematurely stops the field's effects, despite the animation still playing.
  • Specifically Shifta, Deband, Zanverse, Resta, Anti, and Megiverse share this behavior.
• Base Shifta range is approximately 1.5m uncharged, 6m charged.
  • With the Techer skill Territory Burst, range is approximately 3m uncharged, 10m charged. Coupled with the main class Techer skill Wide Support, range is 5m uncharged, 13m charged.
    • All these values are shared for at least Deband and Resta.
