Boost System

The Boost system allows characters to spend accumulated Boost Points (BP) to enhance their current action.

Boost Levels

None (base)
x2 (1 BP)
x3 (2 BP)
MAX (3 BP)

Boost Effects by Action Type

Action TypeBoost Effect
Basic AttackAdds additional weapon strikes
Single-Hit SkillsIncreases damage output per boost level
Multi-Hit SkillsIncreases number of hits (e.g., 2 hits becomes 3/4/5)
Buff/Debuff SkillsExtends duration by 2 additional turns per BP spent
Healing SkillsIncreases amount of HP restored

BP Sources

  • Natural regeneration (+1 BP per turn, unless boosted last turn)
  • Breaking an enemy (grants BP to the breaker)
  • Donate BP (Merchant skill -- grants 1 BP to an ally)
  • Hoot and Holler (Partitio latent -- fills own BP to max)
  • Boost-Start (Merchant support skill -- +1 BP at battle start)
  • BP in Adversity (Inventor support skill -- +2 BP when near death)
  • BP Regeneration (Conjurer support skill -- 25% chance to recover BP spent)
Key Rule

Characters do not regenerate BP on the turn following a boosted action. Plan your boost usage carefully -- boosting every other turn is the typical rhythm.

Break System

Each enemy has Shield Points (SP displayed as a number in a shield icon) and a set of weaknesses. Hitting an enemy with an attack matching their weakness reduces their Shield Points by 1. When Shield Points reach 0, the enemy enters the Break state.

Break State Effects

PropertyValue
DurationThe broken enemy loses their next turn (stunned for 1 full turn cycle). They recover on the same turn they would next act.
Damage Multiplierx2.0
Shield RecoveryWhen the enemy recovers from break, their Shield Points reset to full.
Action LossBroken enemies cannot act on their next turn.

Weakness System

Weakness damage bonus: x1.3 (x1.5 with Stronger Strikes)

Enemy weaknesses are hidden (shown as ? marks) in first encounters. They are revealed by hitting enemies with matching weapon types or elements.

Reveal Methods

  • Hit the enemy with the correct weapon type or element
  • Analyze (Scholar skill -- reveals HP and 1 weakness)
  • Study Foe (Osvald talent -- reveals 1 weakness at battle start, more with experience)

Special Shield Reduction

  • Ruinous Kick (Dancer) -- reduces shield points regardless of weakness
  • Temenos Judgment latent power -- any attack reduces shield points
  • Beastly Howl (Ochette latent) -- reduces all foes' shield points
  • One True Magic (Osvald EX) -- reduces shield points regardless of weakness

Damage Formulas

The core damage calculation in Octopath Traveler II.

Base Formula

Damage = (Attack - [Defense x DefenseRatio / 2]) x (InvocationRatio / 100) x (AbilityRatio / 100) x OtherMultipliers

Damage Multipliers

Critical Hit x1.25 Physical attacks only. Elemental attacks cannot crit.
Weakness x1.3 Hitting an unbroken enemy's weakness
Break State x2.0 Hitting a broken enemy
Damage Cap 9999 99999 with Deal More Damage
