States not working properly

[Quanee]

Hi,

I'm having an issue with my states. I'm using a pretty basic state to increase party member's attack parameter, yet even though it applies itself (I can see an icon and a popup that state is physically active), it doesn't affect my attack at all. Below I'm attaching a pic of the settings I'm currently using. Thanks in advance.

Might sound silly, but was a.atk definitely part of the skill you were trialing this with?

Sorry, I'm not sure I understand the question.

Sorry, I'm not sure I understand the question.

To know it’s working you must have used a skill right? So does the skill you use definitely use “a.atk” in its damage formula box?

Well... Apparently not!

So yeah, it seems it was the issue with my basic attack having a.mat for some unknown reason in its formula box. Thank you for help, that was the only thing I completely missed out. One more thing though if I may - I've tried the exact same thing with Sp-Parameter (Physical Damage), what does it affect exactly?

The Sp-Parameter Physical Damage affects how much damage the character takes from physical attacks. So a rate of 50% would reduce physical damage that character takes by half.

Thank you, both of you, that's all I needed.
