Techniques
Techniques are skills that must be equipped in the Skills menu prior to battle and activated randomly during attack phases in battle. Sieges assist in increasing the chance of the Technique activating. Each Technique has a CP cost and multiple Techniques can be equipped at once if the total CP cost is lower than a character's max CP limit. Techniques are learned through tomes which can be found in shops, hidden in stages, as plunder from fallen enemies, or as Spoils of Sin. Most Techniques are restricted by class.
