4★	Geist	6%

TP drain specials cannot drain more than a certain amount of TP from their targets, depending on the difficulty level (denoted by Difficulty Cap in the formula below). The formula min means that the lesser of two values (separated by ",") will be chosen.

Base TP Drain = min((Power) * (Player Max TP), (Difficulty Cap))
TP Drained = (Base TP Drain) * (1 - Special Reduction)

• Difficulty Cap is as follows:
  • 25 for Normal
  • 50 for Hard
  • 75 for Very Hard
  • 100 for Ultimate
• Special Reduction is as follows (See also: List of weapons with reduced specials):
  • 0.5 for Swords, Daggers, Partisans
  • 0.67 for Slicers, Mechguns, Shots
  • 0 for unreduced weapons

List of Geist weapons

There are three weapon types that can have specials. Specials on common weapons dropping from Monsters or Item boxes are randomly assigned, but are predetermined on all rare weapons. Specials on ES Weapons can be added with Photon drops.

Common weapons

The chance of obtaining specials on common weapons depends on area and difficulty. When a common weapon drops in an untekked state, there is a chance for it to come with Geist as a special. Geist can also be obtained by tekking up a common weapon that drops with the Soul special. Once a weapon drops in an untekked state, the table below lists the overall chance of it coming with the Geist special (including the ability to tekk up from Soul).
