Nostalgia Skill Trees

Nostalgia
Character Skill Trees
[Updated 1 Nov 2025]

NOTES
- Skills are effectively "spells" in that they all use MP
- Through battling, the player earns not only experience points to boost their overall level, but also "skill points" that may be invested in skills of the player's choice, in order to make them more powerful.
- The effect of leveling up a skill varies. For example, it might raise the damage output, or even lower the amount of MP required to use the skill.
- New skills may be obtained through raising a character's overall combat level, or through the investment of "skill points" into a certain skill tree. That is, by raising the level of a certain skill, a more advanced version may become available. For example, by investing in Melody's Flanma, a single-target fire-elemental attack, she gains access to Flanmoa, a multi-target version.
- Advanced skills in a given tree may require that the character attain a certain combat level first. For example, by raising Fiona's Healing Breeze to Lv.5, she gains access to Soothing Light--but ONLY if her combat level is at least 20.

- For some reason, Silencer is programmed as requiring only Lv. 22, but one of its prerequisite skills (Hyper Speed) requires Lv. 25, meaning that Silencer effectively requires Lv. 25.
- Another funny quirk is that Dead Shot appears to require L5 Lock On, but its other prerequisite, Heavy Shot, already requires L5 Lock On, so it's a bit redundant.
