What affects durability?
| Action | Effect |
|---|---|
| Normal attack | Does not consume durability. |
| Combat Art | Consumes the equipped weapon’s durability. |
| Blacksmith refinement | Restores durability while strengthening a weapon. |
| Repair | Restores condition for the required money and materials. |
When does the blacksmith open?
The workshop is introduced during Part I rather than in the prologue; the chapter varies by route. Watch the city tutorial and available workshop options. A Combat Art-heavy unit needs more upkeep than one relying mainly on ordinary attacks.
Keep combat resources separate
Blaze Arts spend Blaze Gauge rather than the weapon durability used by Combat Arts. For a wider preparation loop, see the beginner guide and Free Time.
