"122","51","63","0" &pre=01;&style=Tk15w_3;&image=ng01;Automaton Equipment&style; &style=spacer01;　&style; 　You can customize your automaton from 　the "Automaton" sub-menu found under 　"Equipment" in the main menu. An activated automaton 　cannot be customized. &style=spacer02;　&style; &style=Ty15;　*You must first deactivate your automaton in order to 　 change its equipped parts. "223","138","-38","0" &pre=01;　In addition to the original 　frame that is initially equipped 　on your automaton, there are 　three extra frames available: 　Valoredge X-900, Sharpshot 　Z-500, and Stormwaker Y-700. 　You can also equip twelve 　attachments at a time, enabling a great variety of 　customization options. &pre=01;&style=Tk15w_3;&image=ng01;Controlling Your Automaton&style; &style=spacer01;　&style; 　An automaton will act automatically in relation to its 　equipped attachments. 　Though you may issue simple commands such as attack 　and retreat, you cannot command your automaton to use 　specific spells or abilities. &pre=01;&style=Tk15w_3;&image=ng01;Maneuvers&style; &style=spacer01;　&style; 　Using a maneuver command will cause the automaton to 　give priority to actions that correspond to that maneuver's 　element. 　Maneuver commands will also activate the abilities of 　corresponding attachments.

Fire Maneuver	STR / Attack / Increase enmity
Ice Maneuver	INT / Elemental magic / Magic attack
Wind Maneuver	AGI / Evasion / Ranged accuracy
Earth Maneuver	VIT / Defense
Thunder Maneuver	DEX / Accuracy
Water Maneuver	MND / Magic defense / Curing
Light Maneuver	CHR / HP recovery
Dark Maneuver	MP / MP recovery

&pre=01;&style=Tk15w_3;&image=ng01;Overload&style; &style=spacer01;　&style; 　Using a maneuver will increase the burden associated with 　that maneuver's element. When that burden exceeds a 　certain amount, the automaton will become overloaded. 　An overloaded automaton will be temporarily unresponsive 　to maneuver commands, and will experience a reduction in 　combat ability. &style=spacer02;　&style; &style=Ty15;　*The burden associated with maneuver commands will 　 gradually decrease over time.
