Unit Types

Each unit has a type that is randomly assigned. A unit's type can be confirmed on their Details screen. The unit type affects how its parameters increase when leveling up. Therefore, similar units may differ in their final stats depending on their type. For example, a max-leveled Breaker-type unit will have more ATK and less DEF compared to all other types for the same, max-leveled unit.
The stat range increase/decrease is random, so units of the same type may not progress at the same rate. For example, two max-leveled Anima-type units will most likely have different HP stats, as one might get more HP per level up than the other during the course of leveling up. and rarer units will see striking differences, where the random differences over so many levels add up. For example, one Anima-type (increased HP and reduced REC) Level 80 Steel Shield Darvan may have over 5846 HP, while another Level 80 Anima-type Steel Shield Darvan may only have 5830 HP.
Lord-types are always consistent and the stats do not randomly deviate.
==Unit Type Change==
===Mystery Frogs===
Mystery Frogs can change the Unit Type of a unit it fuses into. There are seven different types of Mystery Frogs: Random Mystery Frog, Lord Mystery Frog, Anima Mystery Frog, Breaker Mystery Frog, Guardian Mystery Frog, Oracle Mystery Frog, Rex Mystery Frog.
Upon fusing any Mystery Frog to a unit, the unit's level is reset to 1. All other properties remain the same, such as Omni+ Boost rarity, SP Enhancements selected, Brave Burst levels, second sphere slots from Sphere Frogs. Until the unit reaches max level, the unit will not have access to their SP Enhancements. Additionally, 3 Rainbow Crystals are sent to your Present Box upon fusing a Mystery Frog.
Random Mystery Frogs change a unit's type a random different type. For example, a Lord type unit with a Random Mystery Frog fused changes its type to Anima, Breaker, Guardian, Oracle, or Rex. The Unit Type of the Random Mystery Frog has no influence on the type that the unit fused will change into. Due to its superior overall effects, Rex Type is randomized at a lower rate than the other possible Types.

==Bonus Skills==
Bonus Skills are attached to Units depending on their Types and Omni+ Levels. Each Unit Type has passive self effects that increase in strength relative to their Omni+ Levels. At Omni+3, a passive squad effect is unlocked that behaves slightly differently from Leader Skills or Extra Skills that apply to all allies. Squad effects do not stack from the same Unit Type e.g. only one "Breaker +3" squad effect can be applied from a squad full of "Breaker +3" units.
The relevant skill description text is also displayed in the new Skill Information Button in the Unit View screen, as well as in the battle status window.
Unit Type Bonus Skills are considered Extra Skills. As such, Extra Skill Lock will invalidate their effects for the duration it is active.
