Enhancement and Weakening Effects List
More Artery Gear: Fusion
Artery Gear Fusion is a gacha mobile game featuring equally badass and attractive mech girls in a post-apocalyptic world overrun by murderous Puppets. Buffs and debuffs can affect the flow of battle. Both allied units and enemies can inflict and receive these enhancement and weakening effects. In our Enhancement and Weakening Effects List, we will discuss the different enhancements (buffs) and weakening (debuffs) players will encounter in the game.
Enhancement Effects
Enhancement Effects are basically buffs (temporary beneficial effects) or temporary stat boosts applied to the user or its allies. The duration of enhancement effects are based in turns and they can be stacked, depending on the skill’s effects or special conditions. Some AGs or enemies can even remove these enhancements due to their own skill effects. Nevertheless, applying the buffs and enhancements can change the tide of battle.
