Ether (XC1)

Ether is a stat in Xenoblade Chronicles and Future Connected that controls how much a party member or enemy deals with non-physical attacks, as well as how much healing they can provide with healing arts.

Ether can be altered in battle by the buff and  debuff. It can also be boosted by levelling up, s and various s. Boosting ether is less effective than boosting weapon power in terms of final damage numbers, but there are many more ways to do so.

Note that as party members have varying minimum s, there is no useful way to compare their stats at minimum level.
