[[File:Hit combo.png|thumb|250px|[[Vaan (Final Fantasy XII party member)|Vaan]] and [[Basch (Final Fantasy XII party member)|Basch]] performing combos in ''[[Final Fantasy XII]]''.]] '''Hit''' {{J|ヒット数|Hittosuu}} is a recurring term in the [[Final Fantasy series|''Final Fantasy'' series]]. First appearing in the original ''[[Final Fantasy]]'', Hit tells the player how many times a unit strikes the enemy on their turn. Each hit inflicts a certain amount of damage, but the damage is tallied up and the total amount of damage is shown on the screen at the end of the unit's turn. The hit count is usually increased by [[Haste (status)|Haste]]. ==Appearances== ===''[[Final Fantasy]]''=== The higher [[Accuracy]] of a unit will cause it to obtain more hits, and units in the first two positions will have a greater hit ratio. ===''[[Final Fantasy II]]''=== The weapon skill level determines how many chances a character has to strike an enemy. Accuracy determines how likely an attack is to hit, and the target's Evasion stats determine how many hits it can avoid and the chance of each evasion attempt succeeding. There is a [[Shield Attack bug|minor bug]] in later versions that can give inaccurate numbers of weapon hits when a shield is also equipped. ===''[[Final Fantasy III]]''=== The maximum amount of hits a player character can perform is based on the following formula: :<math>(Agility/16) + (Level/16)</math> The maximum amount of attacks a player character can avoid depends on if they have a shield or not. With one, the formula is: :<math>(Agility/16) + (Level/16) + 1 * (number of shields equipped)</math> Without one, the formula is instead: :<math>(Agility/32) + (Level/32)</math> Monsters instead have a fixed number of maximum attacks they can perform and avoid. ===''[[Final Fantasy IV]]''=== There is no visual numerical counter that appears during battle, but hits are used all the same. Player characters can attempt a number of attacks equal to (strength / 8) + (agility / 16) + 1, with the amount of those that succeed determined by accuracy. The target may then attempt to evade the hits. The amount of attacks that can be avoided is equal to agility / 8, with a bonus equal to level / 16 if a shield is equipped. For monsters, both values are instead predetermined. The amount of attacks that can be performed is displayed next to the Attack stat, while the amount of attacks that can be evaded is displayed next to the Defense stat. A bug in the SNES version makes it so that monsters have 0 Evasion and thus cannot dodge attacks unless their evasion is changed with an in-battle script; only [[Cagnazzo (Final Fantasy IV 2D)|Cagnazzo]] and [[Barbariccia (Final Fantasy IV 2D)|Barbariccia ]]do this, when they change their forms. ====''[[Final Fantasy IV -Interlude-]]''==== Hit returns and works the same way as it did in the previous game. ====''[[Final Fantasy IV: The After Years]]''==== Hit functions the same way as has its predecessors. ===''[[Final Fantasy XII]]''=== A character using various melee [[Final Fantasy XII weapons|weapons]] or [[Unarmed (Final Fantasy XII)|fighting barehanded]] can hit a foe multiple times when using the Attack command. Enemies can also combo their physical attacks. Each combo hit takes about 0.5 seconds to execute (although it varies between party members and their equipped weapon) and the combo stops when the opponent dies. Each weapon has a hidden Hit Combo rate, usually determined by the weapon type. [[Rod (weapon type)#Final Fantasy XII|Rods]], [[Staff (weapon type)#Final Fantasy XII|staves]], [[measures]], and [[Esper (Final Fantasy XII)|Espers']] regular attacks never deal hit combos. [[Long Range|Ranged weapons]] also cannot perform combos, but they can inflict [[critical hit#Final Fantasy XII|critical]] damage instead, with an exception to [[hand-bombs]]. The accessory [[Genji Gloves (Final Fantasy XII)|Genji Gloves]] boosts the chance of performing a hit combo; the values below are multiplied by 1.8 with Genji Gloves equipped; without the Genji Gloves, the values are multiplied by 0.7. ====Original==== {| class="half-width FFXII article-table" style="text-align:center" |- ! width="50%" |Weapon ! width="50%" |Combo Rate |- ! |[[Final Fantasy XII weapons/Original#Axes and hammers|Axes]] |3% |- ! |[[Final Fantasy XII weapons/Original#Maces|Maces]] |4% |- ! |[[Final Fantasy XII weapons/Original#Unequipped|Unarmed]] |5% |- ! |[[Final Fantasy XII weapons/Original#Swords|Swords]] |5% |- ! |[[Final Fantasy XII weapons/Original#Axes and hammers|Hammers]] |7% |- ! |[[Final Fantasy XII weapons/Original#Daggers|Daggers]]<br />[[Danjuro (Final Fantasy XII)|Danjuro]] |7%<br />10% |- ! |[[Final Fantasy XII weapons/Original#Spears|Spears]] |4% |- ! |[[Final Fantasy XII weapons/Original#Greatswords|Greatswords]]<br />[[Sword of Kings (Final Fantasy XII)|Sword of Kings]]<br />[[Treaty-Blade (Final Fantasy XII)|Treaty-Blade]]<br />[[Defender (Final Fantasy XII)|Defender]]<br />[[Tournesol (Final Fantasy XII)|Tournesol]]<br />[[Wyrmhero Blade (Final Fantasy XII)|Wyrmhero Blade]] |7%<br />25%<br />25%<br />5%<br />12%<br />80% |- ! |[[Final Fantasy XII weapons/Original#Poles|Poles]] |12% |- ! |[[Final Fantasy XII weapons/Original#Katana|Katana]]<br />[[Masamune (Final Fantasy XII)|Masamune]] |13%<br />40% |- ! |[[Final Fantasy XII weapons/Original#Ninja swords|Ninja Swords]]<br />[[Ashura (Final Fantasy XII)|Ashura]]<br />[[Sakura-saezuri]]<br />[[Kagenui (Final Fantasy XII)|Kagenui]]<br />[[Koga Blade (Final Fantasy XII)|Koga Blade]]<br />[[Iga Blade (Final Fantasy XII)|Iga Blade]]<br />[[Orochi (Final Fantasy XII)|Orochi]]<br />[[Yagyu Darkblade (Final Fantasy XII)|Yagyu Darkblade]] |—<br />15%<br />16%<br />17%<br />18%<br />19%<br />20%<br />22% |}<ref name=FF12>{{ref |id=FF12 |author=Maltzsan|date=January 30, 2007|title=Final Fantasy XII Game Mechanics FAQ|url=https://www.neoseeker.com/final-fantasy-xii/faqs/142830-mech.html|platform=Neoseeker|access-date=1st September 2020}}</ref> ====Zodiac==== {| class="half-width FFXII article-table" style="text-align:center" |- ! width="50%" |Weapon ! width="50%" |Combo Rate |- ! |[[Final Fantasy XII weapons#Axes and hammers|Axes]] |6% |- ! |[[Final Fantasy XII weapons#Maces|Maces]]<br />[[Bonebreaker (Final Fantasy XII)|Bonebreaker]] |5%<br />0% |- ! |[[Unarmed (Final Fantasy XII)|Unarmed]] |5% |- ! |[[Final Fantasy XII weapons#Swords|Swords]]<br />[[Great Trango]]<br />[[Karkata]]<br />[[Simha]]<br />[[Kumbha]] |5%<br />30%<br />7%<br />10%<br />35% |- ! |[[Final Fantasy XII weapons#Axes and hammers|Hammers]]<br />[[Vrscika]] |8%<br />20% |- ! |[[Final Fantasy XII weapons#Daggers|Daggers]]<br />[[Main Gauche (Final Fantasy XII)|Main Gauche]]<br />[[Mina (Final Fantasy XII)|Mina]] |12%<br />5%<br />15% |- ! |[[Final Fantasy XII weapons#Spears|Spears]]<br />[[Vrsabha]] |4%<br />10% |- ! |[[Final Fantasy XII weapons#Greatswords|Greatswords]]<br />[[Sword of Kings (Final Fantasy XII)|Sword of Kings]]<br />[[Treaty-Blade (Final Fantasy XII)|Treaty-Blade]]<br />[[Defender (Final Fantasy XII)|Defender]]<br />[[Tournesol (Final Fantasy XII)|Tournesol]]<br />[[Wyrmhero Blade (Final Fantasy XII)|Wyrmhero Blade]]<br />[[Excalipur (Final Fantasy XII)|Excalipur]] |8%<br />20%<br />25%<br />5%<br />10%<br />80%<br />0% |- ! |[[Final Fantasy XII weapons#Poles|Poles]]<br />[[Kanya]] |15%<br />35% |- ! |[[Final Fantasy XII weapons#Katana|Katana]]<br />[[Masamune (Final Fantasy XII)|Masamune]] |20%<br />30% |- ! |[[Final Fantasy XII weapons#Ninja swords|Ninja Swords]]<br />[[Ashura (Final Fantasy XII)|Ashura]]<br />[[Sakura-saezuri]]<br />[[Kagenui (Final Fantasy XII)|Kagenui]]<br />[[Koga Blade (Final Fantasy XII)|Koga Blade]]<br />[[Iga Blade (Final Fantasy XII)|Iga Blade]]<br />[[Orochi (Final Fantasy XII)|Orochi]]<br />[[Yagyu Darkblade (Final Fantasy XII)|Yagyu Darkblade]]<br />[[Mesa]] |—<br />12%<br />15%<br />18%<br />22%<br />22%<br />25%<br />28%<br />32% |} The above numbers tell the chance of a hit combo happening, but don't deal with the actual number of hits. When a character's [[HP (stat)|HP]] is [[HP Critical|low]] the chance of performing a combo remains the same, but the number of hits in a combo increases. {| class="half-width FFXII article-table" style="text-align:center" |- ! width="20%" |Number of Hits ! width="20%" |HP > 25% ! width="20%" |HP 12.5-25% ! width="20%" |HP 6.25-12.5% ! width="20%" |HP < 6.25% |- ! |2 |40.0% |14.7% |1.4% |0% |- ! |3 |38.2% |30.8% |7.5% |0% |- ! |4 |16.6% |29.3% |17.5% |0.2% |- ! |5 |4.3% |16.7% |24.7% |1.2% |- ! |6 |0.8% |6.4% |23.3% |4.3% |- ! |7 |0% |1.7% |15.3% |10.8% |- ! |8 |0% |0.3% |7.2% |19.2% |- ! |9 |0% |0% |2.4% |24.4% |- ! |10 |0% |0% |0.6% |21.7% |- ! |11 |0% |0% |0% |12.8% |- ! |12 |0% |0% |0% |5.3% |- ! |Average Hits |2.873 |3.752 |5.509 |9.02 |}<ref name="FF12" /> The number of hits rises when the character's HP is very low. The player can exploit this by purposely lowering a character's HP to below 6.25% of their maximum before a battle, equip a high-combo weapon and Genji Gloves, and open a battle with a long chain of combos. The strategy can be enhanced by having another character with [[Lure (status)|Lure]] to attract the enemies' attacks. ===''[[Final Fantasy XV]]''=== A "Hits" counter displays how many times an enemy has been struck by attacks in rapid succession. It resets after a few seconds and caps at 999. ===''[[Final Fantasy All the Bravest]]''=== The Onion Knight uses the Hit system during battle. The more hits he does, the more damage he does. A greater amount of hits also increases how quickly his ATB gauge fills; for example, getting 1 Hit makes it charge very slowly, but getting the maximum of 16 hits makes his next turn come nearly instantly. ==Gallery== <gallery> FF Hits.png|''[[Final Fantasy]]''.
