Penetrate is a status effect in ACS. It is usually a side effect of certain Artes, casting time of Spells, or of going into Overlimit, depending on the character.
Forms of Penetrate[]
There are 3 forms of the Penetrate status.

Hidden Penetrate

Marked Penetrate

Unmarked Penetrate
- Hidden Penetrate: This form of Penetrate is simply one of the other two forms, but not publicly displayed. It usually accompanies the casting of spells or other Artes and is used a lot in Story Mode.
- Marked Penetrate: This form of Penetrate has a publicly displayed counter in the corner of the screen displaying how many more times the player with this status must be hit in order to remove the status.
- Unmarked Penetrate: This form of Penetrate is publicly displayed, however is not based on hits, but upon something else; usually either a built-in timer or the character's remaining time in Overlimit.
Effects of Penetrate[]
During any of the forms of Penetrate, the possessing character takes Guarding damage (50% less damage) from all attacks. They are also treated as if Guarding, and as such cannot be combo attacked or staggered.
Countering Penetrate[]
If your enemy is in Penetrate status, there are many ways to fight against it such as;
- Wait for it to expire. This is only for Unmarked Penetrate.
- Use multi-hitting artes to deplete their penetrate counters. This is only for Marked and Hidden Penetrate.
- Use certain artes that are unblockable or have special anti-penetrate effects to make the enemy stagger.
- Use mystic artes. After a mystic arte, the Penetrate status is usually removed. This is also true if the enemy will use a mystic arte while in Penetrate status.
