Vitality

Abbreviation: VIT
Vitality is a defensive stat for reducing physical damage taken.

VIT is associated with the Earth element.

Defensive

• VIT directly impacts fSTR. fSTR is a base damage bonus/penalty that depends upon the comparison between attacker STR and target VIT. Thus, maintaining high VIT allows you to negate some base damage of your enemy, (approximately 1 base damage per 4 VIT).
• Increasing VIT by 2 points adds 3 point of Defense.
• Increasing VIT plays an additional role in reducing enemy critical hit damage.

Other Roles

• Sufficient Vitality will increase the duration of Cover up to a maximum of 15 seconds.
• The target's Vitality is one of the two player stats that determines Waltz strength.
• Vitality is used to determine Jump's base damage, with the formula: ( Base Damage + fSTR )×( 1 + VIT÷256 )
• Vitality plays a small role in improving cure potency (see Cure Formula).
• Chakra's HP restored is Vitality×2.
