Okay, I am updating my website, but my TOA Battle section is a little bare. Could someone please tell me everything there is to know about the following things?
Field of Foneme
Overlimits
Fone Slots
Capacity Cores
Thanks a million!

gamefaqs.com then go to the various faqs for this game.
As for overlimits same effect in this game as in symphonia ie Hi Ougis usable, can't be staggered at all, attack and defense up (physical attack and defense only.)
Yes boss's can be in overlimits and is a pain when in happens. |

The English version will have Field of Fonons. When you use an elemental skill or spell, the fonons will build up in the area, forming a circle. Once enough of one type build up in an area, the circle will be colored. For a physical skill, using while within the circle will activate a FOF change if the skill has one. For spells, the caster can be in the circle or the target can be in the circle...

The Over Limits gauge fills when you do damage, take damage, or taunt. Some titles may also reduce/fill the gauge as you move around on the world map...
| toomuchfreetime wrote: | | Fone Slots |
Fone Slot Chambers improve skills in some way. There are four types, and each skill can have one FS Chamber attached to it. Carmine Chambers increase the effect of something, whether it's the damage of an attack or the healing from a spell. Cobalt Chambers improve times; they make some effects last longer, and they can lower recovery time for spells. Glass Chambers lower TP consumption for most skills, and with certain skills they allow you to steal or heal poison. Sunlight Chambers allow you to use a FOF change skill without a full circle. At first, the FS Chambers don't take effect, but as you use the skill, it will eventually level up to the point that the effect will occur every time you use the skill. The levels are retained for each type of chamber. For example, if you get to max level with a Carmine Chamber for a skill and switch it to a different type, you could switch back to the Carmine Chamber without having to level it up again...
| toomuchfreetime wrote: | | Capacity Cores |
Capacity Cores function like titles used to; they improve stats. Unlike titles, you get to see exactly how much each one boosts stats and how much each stat has been boosted; most AD Skills require you to have boosted certain stats a certain amount. You can only have one of each Capacity Core, so no two party members can have the same one at the same time. You can switch them at any time out of battle...

One question though: Does every skill have four fone slots?

Any FS Chamber can be equipped to any skill, but you can only equip one FS Chamber at a time on a skill...

Unlike spells that can easily create FOF circles for FOF changes it takes 4 elemental tech skills to do this.
Also most HP recovery etc spells don't create FOF circles only "Raise Dead" Changed to Ressurection of the US/North American release and Revive create Light FOF circles the rest of the healing spells do not.
Hi Lv spells ie holy lance, ground dasher etc can create a full FOF circle (100% per use.) A low LV spell ie fireball would have to be casted at least 2 times for its FOF change.
FS chamber LV 6 effect triggers 100% of the time. At LV 1 Zero % to 19% of the time. |

Uh...Fireball isn't in this game btw.

Assuming it does activate 0-19% of the time for Lv1....anybody else have the percent numbers for the other levels?
Or is Vegh just putting out random numbers? :/

According to the Tales of the Abyss Official Complete Guide...
Level 1 : 0-19%
Level 2 : 20-39%
Level 3 : 40-59%
Level 4 : 60-79%
Level 5 : 80-99%
Level 6 : 100%

Do FS chambers "effects" work for FOF changes?
Example place a charmine/red chamber on Jades rock blast spell for a damage increasing effect. Would casting eruption (rock blast on a fire/light FOF circle) increase its damage?
Or would only rock blast by itself increase damage but eruption would not? |

I believe FS Effect do not work on FoF-Changes, only for the particular skill, from what I've played.

| Do all FS work for all the skills? I tried putting a blue one on Guy's healing tech, but it doesn't do anything. Is it because the blue FS only work on spells? |

No, some skills won't have any effect with certain FS Chambers. Cobalt Chambers aren't just for spells, but there isn't anything it can do with Guy's Shuukihou. Cobalt Chambers increase the blow away effect for attacks, increase the duration of Suigojin, decrease the recovery time after casting a spell, or make a status up or down effect more effective...

| Doesn't the overlimit gauge fill faster or slower based on the favourite or disliked food? >>;; |
