OneofthemostcommonquestionsIgetaskedishowdoyougetAPinthegame.SOI'vedecidedtoaddthissectiontoexplainALLthewaysyoucangetAP.

Thereareonly2waystogetAPinthegame:

1.Defeatanenemy2.Performavalidactioninbattle

Now,letmeexplaineachofthem.

EachenemyandbossinthegamehasacertainamountofAP.EVERYnormalenemyinthegamehas1AP.EVERYoversoulversionofanormalenemyhas2AP.Mostofthebossesinthegameonlyhave1APuntillaterinthegamewhensomeofthebossescanhave40ormoreAP.

So,let'ssaywegetintoanencounterwith3normalenemies.We'llcallthemFlan's.

Now,YunaandRikkudonothingtheentirebattle.PainehoweverdecidestouseTriggerHappytoattackFlan1.Itdies.Yuna,Rikku,andPaineIMMEDIATELYgain1APeach.Painehowevergets1moreAPIMMEDIATELYbecausesheperformedavalidaction(TriggerHappy).Now,thePainedoesthesamethingagaintokillthesecondFlanandagaintokillthethirdFlan.

Sooverallduringthebattle,Painereceived6AP(1foreachenemythatdiedand1foreachactionshetook).YunaandRikkuonlygot3APeachbecausetheydidn'tdoanythingduringthebattlebutwerealivewhenPainekilledtheFlan's.

Inotherwords,everytimeafienddies,anycharacterinthebattlewhoisstillalive,IMMEDIATELYgets1AP.Thegamedoesn'tkeeptrackofAPgainedandthengiveittoyouattheendofthebattle.Itgivesittoyouimmediately.Thatiswhyyousee"*******Learned"popupoveryourcharactersheadsometimesduringbattle.Whenyoulearnanewability,itwillIMMEDIATELYbeavailabletouseduringthatbattle.Youdon'thavetowaituntilthenextbattletouseit.

Again,yourcharacterhastobeALIVEtogettheAP.

CertainDressphereshavethecommand"Attack".Usingthiscommandwillnever

giveyouAP.YouwillstillgettheAPforkillinganenemywithAttack,butnotforusing"Attack".

Now,avalidactiondoesn'thavetobeacommandlikeTriggerHappy.Itcanalsobeaspellorevenacommandlike"Pray".Howeverithastoactuallydosomethingforittocountasavalidaction.

Now,ifyoufightabossthathas40AP,allthreecharacterswillget40APwhenitdies,plusanyAPtheygotfortakingvalidactionsduringbattle.The40APisNOTDIVIDED.AllthreecharactersgettheFULL40AP.
