You’ll also find anarrowbelow the gauge. When it’sgreen, you’re able to continue using your team without consequence. But after the green circle fills up, the arrow will turnred, and your damage will become nearly nonexistent.
When that happens, switch to the next party to reset the arrow, allowing you to deal normal damage numbers once again. you’re able to do so by pressing the indicatedkey command on the right of the screenbelow your team composition.
