Tension Art

Tension Arts, or TP Arts, in Xenoblade Chronicles X are special s that each require 1000, or Tension Points, to use.

Overview
All Tension Arts have the letters 'TP' on their Art icon. Each art that does damage will do damage based on the Art user's Potential, rather than their Melee Attack or Ranged Attack.

All arts are Tension Arts. In addition, most damage-dealing Tension Arts have higher hit scaling ratios compared to non-TP arts.
