Overview
Potentials
Certain weapons have inherent properties called Potentials which can be considered as an additional skill for the player, so long as the weapon is equipped and drawn out; they range from damage buffs, to utility skills like improving healing items.
The Potential can be unlocked for the weapon after the weapon is grinded to +10, for Old Type Weapons, or if the weapon reached +10, +20, and +30, for New Type Weapons. There are three Potential types in-game: Normal, Hidden, and Weaponoid Potential; Normal Potentials require Photon Spheres to unlock, Hidden Potentials require Photon Boosters to unlock, while Weaponoid Potentials need Weaponoid Boosters.
Currently, the highest Potential level is 3 and unlocking it would require a total of 12 of the required items: 3 for level 1, 4 for level 2, and 5 for level 3.
Damage Type
The use of Weapons allows the players to do a Photon Art or a Photon Technique effectively. Although in the case for Photon Techniques, the Player can still perform them with their bare hands, albeit ineffectively.
There are about three types of Damage in-game: Striking, Ranged, and Technique Damage.
Certain skills can only work for the specific Damage Type, like Limit Break from the Fighter Skill tree, so understanding and knowing which attacks does the type of damage can be crucial at times.
