Dragoon Level
I never thoughtThought that it would be our last goodbye
Each protagonist in the game eventually obtains their own unique dragoon spirit to utilize in battle, each with their own elemental specialty that completes the character's natural affinity. Once a character has obtained theirs, the SP gauge will appear below the HP and MP gauges in battle mode. SP can be gained by Additions, equipped armor and accessories, or through certain usable items. The maximum SP that can be held is determined by the Dragoon level of the character.
When a certain amount of SP is accumulated, the "Dragoon" option appears in the command menu. The amount of turns the player can stay in Dragoon form is determined by their Dragoon level, for a maximum of 5 complete turns.
While in the form, players have 2 options: "Attack" and "Magic". Attack unleashes a modified form of the addition system, except the amount of hits is determined before the actual attack is completed. A small dragoon symbol appears at the top-right of the screen, with a light revolving around it. The player must press "X" every time the light has passed the very top of the symbol. Every time this is completed, the Dragoon Addition has more successive hits and deals more damage. Every Dragoon uses this method except for Shana and Miranda, who do not have additions. "Magic" uses up Magic Points(MP), but uses elements in its attacks or may be able to heal allies. As the Dragoon level increases with a character, so does their range of magic skills. There is also another option: "Special", which is available whenever the whole party has their Dragoon gauges full. All characters transform into their Dragoon forms, and the environment changes to an alternate Dimension depending on which character chose the "special" option. The dimension will give that player a power boost and the Dragoon Addition will automatically complete perfectly for the character who activates the special. While the dragoon form gives a strong boost to various stats, the characters lose the ability to use items, guard or run. This can be detrimental if the battle takes a turn for the worst as the male dragoon forms have no healing spells and only the White-Silver Dragoon can revive dead characters.
Shana has a Silver Dragon spirit with herself; when it is unleashed, tremendous powers of destruction are available.
Transformations require SP. You can get SP by attacking enemies. Once your SP bar is full, you are able to transform.
