Form Change (フォームアップ Foomuappu?, "Form Up") is a base arte exclusively used by Patty Fleur in the PlayStation 3 and Definitive Edition ports of Tales of Vesperia.
Arte Description and History[]
Upon activation, Patty will randomly assume one of four possible combat forms that will change the way her artes function, as well as give her a buff depending on the form. These forms include Normal Form, Advance Form, Brainiac Form, and Critical Form. A unique card and colored flash will signal which form she entered, with the exception of Critical Form, in which no card is shown. She will also perform a unique animation depending on the form she entered, and her idle stance will change. The buffs will only apply if she finishes the animations.
- Normal (ノーマル?): Green flash and card with a tilted F-like symbol. Patty rubs her head in disappointment. The Overlimit gauge increases slightly, and nearby enemies are pushed away. She stands normally.
- Advance (アドバンス?): Red flash and card with an A-like symbol. Patty performs two left jabs and a right straight. A small amount of HP is restored, physical power increases, and nearby enemies are spun around. She stands with her body turned to the right, with one hand at chest level and the other down at her waist.
- Brainiac (ブレイネル?, "Brainel") Blue flash and card with a backward 4-like symbol. Patty takes out her gun and twirls it. A small amount of TP is restored, magical power increases, and nearby enemies are pushed away and knocked down. She stands ready, with her left foot in front of her, leaned back slightly, and her hands out.
- Critical (クリティカル?) Yellow flash and no card. Patty takes out a hand of cards, pulls her collar down slightly, and fans herself. All effects from the other forms are applied, her running animation changes along with a movement speed increase, and nearby enemies are stunned. She stands similarly to Brainiac Form's stance but with her right foot forward, hopping, and waving her hands in small circles.
In Tales of Asteria, a unit for Patty uses two different, separate artes as a reference to the forms, Form Up A (フォームアップA?) for Advance Form, increasing her attack power by 50%, and Form Up C (フォームアップC?) for Critical Form, increasing her attack power by 100%.
