Link System

Q1. What is the Link System?
A: A new system which links two units, strengthening them.


 * Strengthens unit beyond evolution.
 * You can't use the link unit alone.
 * You can unlink.
 * Units don't disappear, it will remain in the unit box.
 * There is no rank limit.
 * You can level up both link and base units, but you will have to unlink before evolving one of them.

Example used: Walpurgis, the Demon Empress is the Link Unit who will strengthen the Base Unit,  Dark Demon Queen, Yukari.

Q2: What happens when you link?
A: Three "power ups" are given to the Base Unit.

Link Bonus
Depending on the Link Unit the status of the Base Unit increases. Power ups differ by attribute, level/+ values (+2 for HP, +1 for ATK), and rarity/cost.

Race Link Bonus
Dual race units take 60% of both bonuses.

ie. Fallen Demon Lord, Vlad gives ATK+6% and BOOST ATK+9%.

Link Skills
There's a probability that the NS1 of the Link Unit will activate in battle when the Base Unit is attacking. The following parameters affect this probability:

LINK

A percentage indicating the "closeness" of the Base Unit and Link Unit. Increases by 0.1% for every quest cleared (except 0 stamina quests) with the Base unit.

S.AVE

Skill trigger probability. Affected by the Link unit's Normal Skill (Target/Multiplier/Number of Panels), its rarity, and LINK percentage.

Link Skill Conditions:
 * Carries over from the original NS1 (ie. attribute, ATK, CRT+/-)
 * Does not take into account the # of HANDs.
 * BOOST skills are not activated.
 * It does not take attribute (dis)advantages into account.

Examples:
 * Base Unit, Void Axe-Wielding Hero, Ginji, is shown to use his Link Unit  Secretary Cat Tokiwa's NS1 "Silver Wind". Their LINK is at 0%, but their S.AVE is at 20.5%
 * Base Unit, Light Wave God, Sine with Link Unit,  Light God Odin is described as a recovery/barrier+strong attack move. Sine heals with "Comp Eyes Heal", while Odin attacks with "Gungnir: Ragna"
 * Base Unit, Azul=Breunor with Link Unit,  Leora=Bedivere is described as a way to combat Wind enemies that cause problems for Water units.

Link Passives
Special Passive Skills are given to the Base Unit depending on who their Link Unit is.

Q3: How do you Link?
A. Linking is done using Link Synthesis

To Link: You must have a number of coins, and material units. Special Link material units will be added to the Evolution Material quest.

To Unlink: Only a number of coins are needed, but doing so will reset the Link points.
