Battles

Battle is a special screen in HentaiVerse game, where player can fight against monsters in order to get Experience points, Proficiency points, Items, Equipments and Credits.

Setup

• Battles are initiated by the player entering one of the battle modes manually or via Random Encounters while browsing the E-Hentai site. No battles can triggered itself.
• Each battle will spawn up to 10 monster to fight. In Random Encounter battle mode, exists a special handicap for low-levelled player to prevent them face many monsters at once.
• The player always acts first. Monsters can't ambush player or do any action first.
• The difficulty setting may be freely adjusted at any time outside of battle.
• The player can flee from battle to prevent losing.

Terms

• A "turn" refers to a single action from player (attacking, using spells, using items, etc.).
• A "round" refers to a single fight with a set of monsters that ends once they are defeated or the players flee/dies.
• A "battle series" refers to a set of battle rounds that last until completed or until the player flee/dies.
  • e.g. The "First Blood" Arena challenge is a battle series with 5 rounds. Random Encounters and Ring of Blood challenges consist of only 1 round.

Combat

When it is the player's turn to perform an action, he may choose between 7 different actions:

Action		Description	Hotkey
|		Basic physical attack, applying physical attack stats against the target's physical defense stats.	Q
		Prompts the player to select a skill to use or a spell to cast. Pressing the hotkey R will recast the previously cast spell/skill on the previously selected target or on the player if a supportive/curative spell was cast. If the previous target is dead it will open the Skillbook menu and select the previously cast spell/skill, but not cast it. Recast works even if the player performs other actions in between. If no spell/skill has been cast at all during the round hitting R will have same effect as selecting Skillbook. Any skill/spell on cooldown will have its name and quickcast icon grayed/faded out. Player can put spells/skills, he constantly use, in one of the quick-cast slots. This way, spells/skills can be selected via clicking and can also be selected using the hotkeys Alt + 1 through Alt + 0 (the number corresponds to the spell or skill's quickslot placement). These slots are linked with to the player's Personas and will be blank when switching to a new persona for the first time.	W
|		Prompts the player to use one of their Battle Items. To use that action, player should move Items from their Inventory to one of the Battle Item slot. By default every player has five Battle Items slots, this amount may be increased via specific Trainings. While player use items custom monsters can't attack him in between. Items restock themselves in battle based on various cooldowns.	E
|		Toggles Spirit Stance. Can be toggled once a player has at least 50% Overcharge and consumes one SP and 10% Overcharge per round. On the current turn: Physical damage is boosted by +100%. Mana cost is reduced by 25%. On the following turn: Same as above, until player has enough Overcharge or he decided to toggle off Spirit Stance.	S
|		Use Defend command. Can be selected in anytime. On the current turn: Physical and magical mitigations are boosted by +25%. 10% Overcharge is consumed to recover 10% base health (requires 10%+ overcharge). On the following turn: Physical and magical mitigations are boosted by +25%.	D
|		Use Focus command. Can be selected in anytime. On the current turn: Evade, Block, Parry and Resist? reduced to 0% (-100% penalty). Monsters can still miss though. Note: only for this turn. 25% Overcharge is consumed to recover 5% base mana (requires 25%+ overcharge). On the following turn: Magic Hit Chance/Spell Hit Chance is boosted by 100%?. Counter-resist is boosted by 50%.	F

After selecting and executing a command each living enemy may perform an attack, spell, or spirit attack. Most of the time this will result in the end of a turn, though sometimes certain abilities take longer to perform than others. In these cases, some enemies may act a second time before the player can respond.

Targeting

Enemies can be targeted by mouse clicking or keyboard's hotkeys 1 through 0 (either on the home row or number pad); 1 corresponds to the through to 0 for .
Targeting is important for certain Fighting Styles and spells that can hit multiple targets.
