Latent and Hidden Effects
Introduction
Many items' ingame descriptions do not fully describe their effects. This article is designed to help you become acquainted with such items and how to use them.
Latent Effects are item attributes that are triggered under certain, unstated circumstances.
Hidden Effects are item attributes that are not reflected in the item description at all.
Some effects are both latent and hidden.

The following weapons' damage ratings vary depending on the wielder's current HP.

The following set of weapons have latent (and hidden) effects when the person using them has less than 100% TP. Note that the effect is active during weapon skills because of the order in which events occur while using a weapon skill--TP is set to zero before the weapon skill activates. Also, the single-handed ones work regardless of whether they are equipped in the main or sub slot.
| Item | Latent Effect | Trigger |
|---|---|---|
| Wagh Baghnakhs (Hand-to-Hand) | DMG:+18 Accuracy +5 Attack +14 | < 100% TP |
| Blau Dolch (Dagger) | DMG:33 Accuracy +5 Attack +16 | < 100% TP |
| Maneater (Axe) | DMG:49 Accuracy +5 Attack +18 | < 100% TP |
| Stone-splitter (Polearm) | DMG:71 Accuracy +5 Attack +24 | < 100% TP |
| Onimaru (Great Katana) | DMG:83 Accuracy +5 Attack +18 | < 100% TP |

| Perdu Blade (Katana) | DMG:32 Accuracy +5 Attack +10 | < 100% TP |
The following items of the Hachiman Armor set (Lv.70 SAM) have latent effects that activate in the opposite way, compared to the weapons above. The latent is active when your TP is greater than or equal to 100%, and is not active during weapon skills.
| Item | Latent Effect | Trigger |
|---|---|---|
| Hachiman Jinpachi/Hachiman Jinpachi +1 | Double Attack +2%/3% | ≥ 100% TP |
| Hachiman Kote/Hachiman Kote +1 | Attack +10/12 | ≥ 100% TP |

Subjob-triggered Effects
The various Latent Effects on the following series of Level 30 earrings, mantles, belts, and shields are triggered simply by having the appropriate subjob.
Atypical Damage Type Weapons
Most weapons of a certain category deal the same type of damage. The following weapons are exceptions. Despite having an uncharacteristic damage type when meleeing, these weapons still use normal damage types during weapon skills.
| Item | Hidden Effect |
|---|---|
| Bourdonasse (Polearm) | Blunt damage |
| Crude Sword (Great Sword) | Blunt damage |
| Honebami (Great Katana) | Blunt damage |
| Vampiric Claws (Hand-to-Hand) | Slashing damage |
| Mensur Epee (Sword) | Piercing damage (first introduced as Slashing type) |
| Joyeuse (Sword) | Piercing damage |
Elemental Staves
The Level 51 Elemental Staves have very potent hidden effects which make them useful to various jobs. These effects conform to the standard elemental strengths and weaknesses.
Weapon Skill Point Effects
The following weapons have latent effects that are governed by a system that keeps track of how many Weapon Skill Points you have accrued using them on Easy Prey or harder enemies. Single-handed weapons need to be equipped in the main slot in order to advance this counter.
Each weapon skill you perform using these weapons on Easy Prey or tougher enemies grants you a number of points as follows:
- 1 point for a weapon skill that does not produce a skillchain effect
- 2 points for a weapon skill that produces a level 1 skillchain effect
- 3 points for a weapon skill that produces a level 2 skillchain effect
- 5 points for a weapon skill that produces a level 3 skillchain effect
Weapons "of trials" are involved in obtaining quested weapon skills. The holder of the weapon must accrue 300 weapon skill points to deactivate the latent and then return it to the quest giver before continuing in the quest.
Weapons from the various 30-Kindred's Seal BCNMs require the holder to accrue 500 weapon skill points to activate the latent high damage rating (and on most, critical hit rate). Note that the critical hit rate modifier does apply to all attacks while that unlocked weapon is equipped.

Relic Weapons
In addition to its other unique characteristics, each fully-upgraded relic weapon can occasionally double or triple their base damage.
During this effect, the base damage formula becomes : floor( ( D+ (aD) + fSTR(2)) * n)
where n is the hidden n-fold damage multiplier of a particular weapon.
- This increased base damage cannot be activated during weapon skills.
- Although it is possible for the 3x damage effect of Mandau to occur during Sneak Attack and Trick Attack when Thief is set as the main job or sub job.
| Item | Hidden Effect |
|---|---|
| Aegis (Shield) | Occasional 2/3-fold Shield Bash damage Increased blocking rate |
| Amanomurakumo (Great Katana) | Occasional 2.5-fold damage |
| Annihilator (Gun) | Occasional 3-fold damage |
| Apocalypse (Scythe) | Occasional 2-fold damage |
| Bravura (Great Axe) | Occasional 2-fold damage |

Elemental Gorgets
Elemental Gorgets are rewards of the quest In the Name of Science. These gorgets improve both Weapon Skill accuracy (by unknown amount) and TP Modifier by 25/256 (0.0976...). To trigger the effects, the player must use a Weapon Skill with the same Skillchain property as the gorget name.
- For example:
- Sidewinder has the skillchain properties of Detonation, Reverberation, and Transfixion; therefore, the Breeze Gorget, Aqua Gorget, or the Light Gorget would all enhance Sidewinder equally when equipped.
- Arching Arrow only has the skillchain property of Fusion; however, since Fusion is a combination of Transfixion and Liquefaction, either the Light Gorget or Flame Gorget will enhance Arching Arrow.
Relic Weapon skills have the ability to continue level 3 skillchain (Light/Darkness) once, but the Light/Darkness attribute does not contribute to elemental attribute of the following gorgets
- For example:
- Tachi: Kaiten have "can continue Light skillchain" and "have Fragmentation" properties, but the gorgets that will affect Tachi: Kaiten accuracy and damage are the Breeze Gorget and Thunder Gorgets only (due to its Fragmentation property). Neither the Light Gorget nor Flame Gorget will enhance Tachi: Kaiten.
| Item | Latent Effect | Trigger |
|---|---|---|
| Aqua Gorget | Increases Weapon Skill Accuracy and Damage | Weapon Skill attribute contains Reverberation |
| Breeze Gorget | Increases Weapon Skill Accuracy and Damage | Weapon Skill attribute contains Detonation |
| Flame Gorget | Increases Weapon Skill Accuracy and Damage | Weapon Skill attribute contains Liquefaction |
| Light Gorget | Increases Weapon Skill Accuracy and Damage | Weapon Skill attribute contains Transfixion |
| Shadow Gorget | Increases Weapon Skill Accuracy and Damage | Weapon Skill attribute contains Compression |
| Snow Gorget | Increases Weapon Skill Accuracy and Damage | Weapon Skill attribute contains Induration |
| Soil Gorget | Increases Weapon Skill Accuracy and Damage | Weapon Skill attribute contains Scission |
| Thunder Gorget | Increases Weapon Skill Accuracy and Damage | Weapon Skill attribute contains Impaction |
