SUV Weapons

Description
SUV Weapons are weapons exclusive to CAST use. During battle, a CAST can use satellites to summon large, powerful weapons that they cannot otherwise store on their person. These weapons can deal a significant amount of damage and have the ability of inflicting status effects.

Obtaining SUV Weapons
SUV Weapons are only available to CASTs of level 20 or higher.

In Network mode, players can obtain SUV Weapons from the GRM Unit Shop on Parum, costing between 2500-120000 meseta. In Extra mode, however, SUV Weapons cannot be bought from stores and can only be obtained through achieving an S-Rank on certain missions. In Story Mode of Ambition of the Illuminus, SUV weapons are sold at the GRM Unit Shop on Parum, similar to Network Mode.

Players can only use SUV Weapons if they are equipped with a line shield that has an Extra slot. In addition the line shield must match the letter grade of the SUV or exceed it.

Using SUV Weapons
Once a SUV Weapon is equipped, a blast gauge at the bottom of your character's status bar will fill up as you take and deal damage, similar to the Photon Blast system in Phantasy Star Online. When full, the gauge will glow brightly. Once the character is standing still, a button combination (this varies between platforms) will appear next to the Weapon information bar. Pressing this combination will activate the SUV Weapon.

After a short summoning sequence, the SUV Weapon will appear and begin attacking. Once the attack has begun, the player cannot assume control over their character until the attack sequence is completed. There is only a small window of time during the summoning sequence that the player can fine-tune the direction that their character is facing. The final outcome of the attack depends wholly on the SUV Weapon used, so players must be careful when activating it.

During the summoning and attack sequences, the player is completely invincible to enemy attack (though the character may be pushed around a little).
