Vitality (バイタリティ Baitariti?), also localized as Stamina, is a recurring skill in the Tales series.
Arte Description and History[]
Vitality increases user's maximum HP by a small amount, in most cases by 5%.
Some games include more powerful form of this skill, known as Vitality 2 (バイタリティ２ Baitariti 2?), also localized as Stamina 2, and Vitality 3 (バイタリティ３ Baitariti 3?) which usually increase maximum HP by 10% and 15% respectively. In Tales of Vesperia and Tales of Link, the skills increase maximum HP by a flat amount instead, and the former adds an additional fourth tier known as Vitality 4 (バイタリティ４ Baitariti 4?), while the latter has up to six levels, each increasing HP more than the lower tier.
In Tales of Xillia and its sequel, the skill Vitality with its upgraded versions are known in Japan as Stamina (スタミナ Sutamina?) and increase the user's Vitality (体力 Tairyoku?, "Strength") which influences one's ability to have their guard broken.
