Crafts and S-Crafts: build the current technique plan
Quick answer
[Confirmed systems] Crafts and S-Crafts are character techniques; Arts are unlocked through Quartz in the Tactical Orbment. Read the current skill menu for costs and conditions. On Steam, demo 1.00.2 repairs missing S-Crafts after Kurt, including on affected saves.
[Official Steam note] The published 1.00.2 fix addresses S-Craft acquisition after Kurt and applies the unlock to affected existing saves. Console parity is not inferred from this Steam-specific notice.
Update the Steam demo to 1.00.2 or later.
Load the affected save rather than beginning a replacement run.
Open the character skill list and confirm the S-Crafts are present.
If the issue persists, record the displayed version and report the exact save state.
Reserve stronger techniques for a meaningful target, but do not hoard them so aggressively that the party loses control. Use the displayed turn order, range and effect to decide whether the next action should heal, reposition, apply an Art, use a Craft or commit an S-Craft.
No universal level, CP threshold, damage multiplier or best character pairing is published here without a current remake source.
Read every unlocked skill after a chapter or patch.
Test one technique in a safe encounter before committing it to a boss plan.
Record what the current build actually costs and does.
