[User]

 

Activation

Speed Modifier	This value can range from -2,000 to 2,000 and will be temporarily added to the user's Agility when the item is used. The resulting value determines the order that actions are carried out in during battle. Therefore, the speed modifier can be adjusted to create items that have a smaller impact but activate quickly, or that have a larger impact but take a while to activate.
Success Rate	This value can range from 0 to 100% and is the probability that the item itself will be used successfully. However, the actual probability of an item succeeding depends on the target's resistances.
Hits	The number of times the item's effects activate per use. This value can range from 1 to 9.

 

Hit Type
Determines how hits are calculated. Choose from one of the following.

Certain Hit	As long as the item is used successfully, it will always hit. Counter, Reflect Magic, and Substitute will have no effect.
Physical Attack	The user's Hit Rate and the target's Evasion Rate will determine whether the item hits. Can be affected by Counter and Substitute.
Magic Attack	The target's Magic Evasion Rate will determine whether the item hits. Can be affected by Reflect Magic and Substitute.

 

Animation

The animation that plays when the item is used during battle.

 

Recovery
Set whether the item will apply any form of recovery to the target. HP, MP, and TP can all be recovered simultaneously.

 

Recover HP

The item will recover HP.

Formula	Enter a formula to calculate the amount recovered.
Percent of Max Value	Enter a percentage of the target's Max HP to recover.
Max Recovery	Enter the max amount that can be recovered when using "Formula" or "Percent of Max Value". For example, if "Percent of Max Value" is set to 30% and "Max Recovery" is set to 300, an actor with a Max HP of 1,500 can only recover up to 300 HP.
Fixed Recovery	Enter a fixed amount to recover. If "Fixed Recovery" is selected, it will be given priority over "Formula" and "Percent of Max Value".
Variance	The degree to which the effect may fluctuate. This value can range from 0 to 100%, and the calculated recovery amount will be either increased or decreased by a random amount up to the set percentage. For example, if the calculated recovery amount is 100, and the variance is 20, the effect will recover between 80 and 120 (100±20). This will apply regardless of whether it was calculated using "Formula", "Percent of Max Value", or "Fixed Recovery".

Min Value	Enter the minimum value for the result from the formula.
Variance	The degree to which the effect may fluctuate. This value can range from 0 to 100%.
Critical Hits	Set whether critical hits can occur when using the item. When set to "Yes", the user's Critical Hit Rate and the target's Critical Hit Evasion Rate will decide whether a critical hit occurs.

Effect on User
If you want the item to have an effect on both the target and the user at the same time, set the effects that apply to the user here.
