Support abilities
Support abilities are passively active during battle and thus do not expend AP. Each crown has its own special property, such getting Game Over with Freelancer lets the player keep their accumulated gems. The enhancements are available since the party gains the crown and unlike most other games in the series, it is not possible to learn more support abilities for the jobs. Equipment pieces also provide innate enhancements, such as weapons inflicting status ailments on targets, and armor boosting stats. The accessories' main purpose is to provide support abilities, although some also have stats.
