Tidus, Final Fantasy X

Cheer (はげます, Hagemasu?, lit. Cheer Up), also known as Cheer Up and Steel, is a recurring buffing or support ability that usually enhances character's physical stats.

Appearances[]

Final Fantasy X[]

Cheer is a Special ability that targets all active party members and raises Strength and resistance to physical damage. Its effects stack up to 5 times per party member and remain until the end of battle unless KO'd or petrified.

Cheer raises the Strength stat by 1 point per cast; this can even raise the Strength stat to 260 during battle (Strength normally caps at 255). It also reduces physical damage in a manner similar to the Protect spell; after a physical attack's base damage has been calculated, Cheer reduces that damage by a certain percentage. Casting Cheer once cuts damage received by 1/15 (or about 6.67%). Each additional cast raises this damage reduction to 2/15, 3/15, 4/15, and finally 5/15.

It is found in Tidus' section of the Sphere Grid and is the first ability available for him to learn. The full x5 Cheer effect is also bestowed by some mixes.

Final Fantasy XIII-2[]

Cheer is a Medic command used by some recruitable monsters that slightly charges the Feral Link gauge. Monsters use this ability only when the party has full HP and no negative status effects are inflicted on any ally. It has an ATB cost of 3. It can be learned by Cactrot (12), Cactuarama (12), Cactuarina (12), Cait Sith (34), Caterchipillar (9), Flanitor (9), Green Chocobo (4), PuPu (7), and Spiranthes (10).

Main article: Steel (Tactics)

Steel is an ability learned by the squire and game hunter class for 200 JP, exclusive to Ramza (after Chapter 2) and Luso. It increases one ally's bravery by 5 and has a range of 3. This skill can also permanently raise a character's bravery stat. The formula for calculating the new bravery stat is: (Bravery Gained During Battle / 4) + Bravery at Start of Battle. This value is rounded down. The character's new bravery stat will be set at the end of that battle.
