Super Robot Wars/OGs/Pilot Skills

Pilot Points

Whenever one of your pilots shoots down an enemy unit, they are awarded a specific amount of Pilot Points (PP). The amount of PP is determined by the type of unit that is shot down and can also modified depending on whether your pilot is the sub unit of a Twin, a co-pilot of the main or sub unit, a sub-pilot of the main or sub unit, a non-deployed pilot who is providing Support Attack to your battleships, or using a MAP Weapon.

Co-Pilots and Sub-Pilots

A co-pilot is a pilot who can swap positions with the current main pilot (in the case of a unit which transforms) or can act as an independent pilot in their own unit (in the case of multiple units which can combine into one unit and separate back into multiple units):

• Rai (SRX)
• Aya (SRX)
• Grungust Type 3
• Bullet (RyuKoOh)
• Kusuha (KoRyuOh)

Sub-pilots are considered to be a crew member of a unit rather than an actual pilot. They cannot be a main pilot, they don't have a Twin Spirit Command, and they have a very shortened Pilot Skill list that they can learn from:

• Tetsuya (Hagane)
• Eita (Hagane)
• Sean (Hiryu Custom)
• Tsugumi (Astelion AX)

Pilot Point Modifiers

When calculating PP, the game truncates any decimals instead of rounding them up or down to the nearest whole number. As a result of this, the minimum number of PP that an enemy unit will award is 1 PP.

Main unit

• Main unit (solo or in a Twin unit): 100% PP
• Co-pilot of the main unit: 100% PP
• Sub-pilot of the main unit: 50% PP

Twin unit

• Same values as above for the main unit
• Sub unit: 75% PP (100% with the Learner Pilot Skill)
• Co-pilot of the sub unit: 75% PP (100% with Learner)
• Sub-pilot of the sub unit: 37.5% PP (50% with Leaner)

Non-Deployed Support Attack

• Main unit: 50% PP
• Co-pilot: 50% PP
• Sub-pilot: 25% PP

Note: see the Non-Deployed Support Attack section on the Game Mechanics page for more information.

MAP Weapons

• Main unit: 50% PP
• Co-pilot of the main unit: 50% PP
• Sub-pilot of the main unit: 25% PP
• Sub unit: 37.5% PP (50% with the Learner)
• Co-pilot of the sub unit: 37.5% PP (50% with Learner)
• Sub-pilot of the sub unit: 18.75% PP (37.5% with Leaner)

Note: MAP Weapons further reduce the amount of PP that your pilot is awarded by 50%. See the MAP Weapons page for more information.

Pilot Training

You can spend your pilots' PP to either increase their stats, improve their terrain ratings, or learn Pilot Skills.

Stats

Increase	Cost
+1	10 PP

Note: all stats have a cap of 400.

Terrain Ratings

Improvement	Cost
C → B	40 PP
B → A	50 PP
A → S	60 PP

Note: see the Terrain Rating Modifiers table for more information on how a pilot's final terrain rating is calculated.

Support Attack

Support Attack grants one use per turn for each level. These uses recharge each turn. In order to use Support Attack, the pilot providing it must meet the following requirements:

• They must be next to the attacking unit.
• They must not have ended their turn.
• They must have one or more uses left of Support Attack.
• They must be able to enter the terrain of the attacking unit.
• They must have a weapon that is within range of the targeted enemy (including terrain restrictions).

Support Attack cannot be used if the attacking unit uses an ALL or W attack. A pilot who provides Support Attack will receive a +20% bonus to their Final Accuracy but will only deal 75% of their normal damage. They will not provide Support Attack if the enemy unit has already been reduced to 0 HP by the main attack.

Level	Cost	Cumulative Cost
1	50	50
2	60	110
3	70	180
4	80	260

Support Defend

Support Defend grants one use per turn for each level. These uses recharge each turn. In order to use Support Defend, the original target of the attack must fail to the evade the attack and the pilot providing Support Defend must meet the following requirements:

• They must be next to the unit who is being attacked.
• They must not have ended their turn.
• They must have one or more uses left of Support Defend.
• They must be able to enter the terrain of the unit who is being attacked.

Support Defend cannot be used if the attacking unit uses an ALL or W attack. A pilot who provides Support Defend will take 50% of the normal damage. The Afterimage and Jammer Mech Abilities can still activate on the unit who is providing Support Defend which allows it to dodge the attack that it is intended to absorb. If a normal attack is avoided and it is followed up by a Support Attack, Support Defend can be performed against the Support Attack.

Counter

Counter works with Revenge, unlike OG1 and OG2 on GBA. If you have a Twin unit and choose to Counterattack with the pilot who has Counter, the other unit in the Twin can also take part in the preemptive counterattack if Counter activates; however, Counter will not activate if you choose to Defend or Evade the attack with the pilot who has Counter, if the enemy is outside of the attack range of the pilot who has Counter, or if the other unit in the Twin counterattacks with an attack that the pilot who has Counter can't participate in. The formula for its activation rate is as follows:

= [(Pilot Skill - Enemy Skill) / 10 + Counter Level] / 16

Level	Cost	Cumulative Cost
1	20	20
2	25	45
3	30	75
4	35	110
5	40	150
6	45	195
7	50	245
8	55	300
9	60	360

In-Fighter

In-Fighter increases the Attack Power (AP) of melee weapons by +50 per level. At level 4 and 7, In-Fighter increases the movement of the unit by +1 instead of increasing the damage of melee weapons.

Level	Movement Bonus	AP Bonus	Cost	Cumulative Cost
1	—	+50	20	20
2	—	+100	25	45
3	—	+150	30	75

7	+2	+250	50	245
8	—	+300	55	300
9	—	+350	60	360

Gunfighter

Gunfighter increases the Attack Power (AP) of ranged weapons by +50 per level. At level 4 and 7, Gunfighter increases the range of ranged weapons by +1 instead of increasing the damage. The range bonus applies to ranged weapons with a range of 1 and Special Weapons but not MAP Weapons.

Level	Range Bonus	AP Bonus	Cost	Cumulative Cost
1	—	+50	20	20
2	—	+100	25	45
3	—	+150	30	75

SP Up

SP Up grants +6 Spirit Points per level.

3	+18	40	105
4	+24	45	150

Commander

Level	Cost	Cumulative Cost
1	30	30
2	40	70
3	50	120
4	60	180

Commander does not affect the pilot who has the skill. They can only benefit from Commander if another pilot has it and they are within their aura. If there are multiple pilots with Commander whose auras overlap, only the highest level is applied to each square. Co-pilots can still provide their Commander aura while sub-pilots cannot. The Accuracy and Evade Rates affect the Accuracy Rate formula.

Bonus to Accuracy and Evade Rates
Level	Twin	Range 1	Range 2	Range 3	Range 4	Range 5
1	12%	10%	8%	—	—	—
2	18%	15%	12%	9%	—	—
3	24%	20%	16%	12%	8%	—
4	30%	25%	20%	15%	10%	5%

Concentrate

Concentrate does not stack with Ace Bonuses that also reduce SP costs. It is efficient when using Twin Spirit Commands as the other pilot in the Twin unit will also benefit from the reduced SP cost.

Revenge

Revenge works with Counter, unlike OG1 and OG2 on GBA. It does not work if an enemy uses Counter against you during a player phase.

E. Save

E. Save rounds down any leftover decimal values. A co-pilot or sub-pilot who has it will not affect the unit that they belong to. For Combination Attacks, only the pilot with E. Save will benefit from the reduced EN consumption. Other pilots participating in the combination attack will consume the normal amount of EN unless they also have E. Save.

B. Save

B. Save rounds down any leftover decimal values meaning that it will not increase the amount of ammo for weapons which have one ammo.

Unique Skills

Unique Skills are only available to certain pilots and cannot be learned by other pilots.

Skill	Japanese	Description	Pilot
Telekinesis	念動力	Level-dependent bonus to Accuracy Rate and Evade Rate	Ryusei, Aya, Bullet, Kusuha, Ryoto, Rio, Leona, Tasuku, Mai, Yuuki, Carla
Genius	天才	Accuracy Rate, Evade Rate, and Critical Hit Rate +20%	Rai, Latune, Elzam, Rätsel, Ouka
Lucky	ラッキー	Upon activation, Accuracy Rate, Evade Rate, and Critical Hit Rate become 100%	Garnet, Tasuku, Arado
Fortunate	強運	Receive +20% money when shooting down enemy units	Kyosuke, Viletta (OGs1), Ling (OGs1), Arado, Shine, Mai, Carla
Precognition	予知	Final Evade Rate +30 during enemy phase at 130+ Will	Gilliam, Radha, Shine

Telekinesis

A number of weapons and attacks require a pilot to have a minimum Telekinesis level in order to use it. For instance, the SRX's TK Burst Slash requires Ryusei to have Telekinesis Lv 8 which he doesn't acquire until Level 39. When you form a Twin unit with two Telekinesis-type units whose pilots have Telekinesis Lv 9, their Telekinesis level will not become Lv 10.

Pilot	Maximum Telekinesis Level
Ryusei (OGs2), Kusuha, Ryoto, Mai	9
Ryusei (OGs1), Bullet, Rio, Leona, Tasuku, Yuuki, Carla	8
Aya	7

The Accuracy and Evade Rates affect the Basic Accuracy and Basic Evade Rate formulas.

Level	Accuracy and Evade Rate Bonus	Telekinesis Field Damage Block
1	0%	200
2	3%	400
3	6%	600
4	9%	800
5	12%	1000
6	15%	1200
7	18%	1400
8	21%	1600
9	24%	1800

Lucky

Lucky does not stack with the Valor and Soul Spirit Commands, unlike OG1 and OG2 on GBA, but can activate even if they are active and will override them. It also overrides the Bullseye and Flash Spirit Commands. Due to the level of the skill never increasing for any pilot in OGs2, the activation rate will remain at 1.5%. The formula for its activation rate is as follows:

= (Lucky level/64)

Fortunate

Fortunate stacks with "Ace Pilot" status (50+ kills) and Ace Bonuses that provide extra money but does not stack with the Luck or Bless Spirit Commands. See the Money Modifiers section on the Game Mechanics page for more information.
