Victory Conditions
If you concentrate your attacks on the enemy and put them in a Break state, you create a big opportunity to take the upperhand. Also, make full use of Elements and Style to gain every advantage.
Break
Attacking an enemy will reduce their Break Gauge.
Depleting this will cause the enemy into a Break state. For a certain period of time, the enemy will be unable to move and the damage they take will increase.
Link Attack, Unison Raid
After depleting 1 Break Gauge, you can perform a Link Attack. When all the Break Gauges of a strong enemy have been depleted, a Unison Raid will be performed, dealing heavy damage to the enemy.
Risk Gauge
When an enemy is preparing a powerful attack, a Risk Gauge (Yellow Rhombus) will be displayed.
When the Timer (Purple Circle) is completely full, you can use a powerful attack.
By attacking with Skills whose Styles have an advantage, you can reduce the Risk Gauge. If you reduce it completely before the Timer fills up, you can stop the enemy's attack (Risk Break). Additionally, you can activate a Link Attack.
Sign
When danger approaches during Battle, a sign will appear above the Character's head.
Protect yourself with Guards.
Sub-Menu
When the Action Gauge is full, you can open the Sub-Menu.
In the Sub-Menu, you can use Items or escape from Battle.
However, you cannot escape from some battles, such as boss fights.
