assist abilities

[someuser825]

Do assist abilities work if characters are in the sub party? Also is it known what the #s or %s on the abilities are. Tried looking on the JP wiki but nothing there.

Assist abilities only buff the character that possesses them, so their effects are pretty meager regardless. Also, it's kind of hard to test the effects when they can't be inactivated. I'd expect the effects would be in the range of a 10% buff though.

I'm 90% sure I read somewhere - probably a help tooltip or something - that assist abilities only affect ACTIVE party members. So Sub-party is a definite no. That being said, I could've sworn that they still affect all active party members.

Now SOUL passives only affect the soul, that much i know. But the assist abilities form SR or better kamihime, pretty sure they affect all active members.

I'm 90% sure I read somewhere - probably a help tooltip or something - that assist abilities only affect ACTIVE party members. So Sub-party is a definite no. --I think the Eng wiki claims that. But I don't think that's true.

We'll be getting stuff that explicitly states that it helps the entire party, such as "5% more max HP to x element characters." And these will work even from the backrow, I believe.
At the moment, I don't think Nutaku version has a single party-wide passive ability.
