I tried searching for this stuff, but I can't seem to go back very far in the forums. Links will be fine if I missed something.
1.) Skills. What does what?
2.) What causes my TF to change back and forth from alt-mode in a battle?
3.) What is the hierarchy of weapon damage descriptors?
4.) How does armor work? Doe it reduce damage or help to avoid it all together?
That about all I can think of. Thanks in advance!
