Master Arts are unique upgrades that each party member can unlock for use in battle. Many of them are special move inputs borrowed from Warriors games known as "Combo Attacks," but some of them provide passive upgrades unrelated to specific combos. Master Arts are unlocked for each party member as they're directly controlled throughout the game. The more time is spent playing as a character, the more Master Arts they can unlock, granting various advantages in combat. Each member of the team has 4 different Master Arts they can learn.
