Riding Actions

- special techniques you can use while riding your monster on the field
- several types of Riding Actions (depending on the monster you’re adventuring with), and they allows you to:

easily find some items
become invisible and walk past enemies undetected
dig your way underground
break rocks
walk across lava
swim in water
fly in the sky

- during battle, monsters can use Active Skills
- these are powerful techniques that can either deal lots of damage (more than regular attacks), or provide support
- by filling up the Kizuna Gauge, you can also use Kizuna Double Actions
- this lets both the Rider and the monster attack together at once for massive damage
- using a Kizuna Double Action also helps fill up your Kizuna Gauge
- when it’s completely filled, you get various benefits (such as increased stats, for example)
- it also allows you to Kizuna Moves: unique and extremely powerful moves that really pack a punch.
