Frames

Frames are a basic piece of equipment that serve primarily to reduce and avoid damage from enemy attacks.

There are many different types of frames in Phantasy Star Online Blue Burst. Some are designed to give a large amount of DFP to reduce damage, some that are designed to give a large amount of EVP to avoid damage, while others may have various offensive bonuses.

Frames can come with a varying amount of "slots," ranging from zero to four. Slots allow characters to equip Units, which provide a wide array of bonuses depending on the unit equipped, varying from stat bonuses (such as God/Ability) to more complicated effects (such as V501 or Smartlink). While frames drop with a random amount of slots, it is possible for a player to increase the number of slots on a frame by equipping a frame and using the rare tool AddSlot.

Common frames do not alter character appearance in any way, while a number of rare frames offer an aesthetic effect (e.g. Flame Garment applies a flame effect, Electro Frame applies an electricity effect).
