Since this is such a big guide for such a statistical part of the game. We've
included a table of contents with a "Quick Find" (Ctrl + F) shortcut to use,
instead of having to shift throughout the mass of numbers trying to find one
Art in particular.

Force Arts are acquired throughout the span of the game from Monsters, Monster
Gates, and Field Destructible items such as barrels and boxes. Once you collect
one, you are able to return to town and enter the Force Shop and spend energy
you've collected along the way to train in these abilities. Also, Force Arts
are passive for Max and never need to be equipped. They also do not effect
party members. So don't become too diverse or you may regret it later.
To gain higher levels in Force Arts, you will either need to train previous
levels or find them as Force Arts in the field.

Secret Arts are something that can be obtained towards the end of the game.
Most of them are optional and require you to fight some difficult bosses, even
at high levels. They can be added to the third slot in the type of equipment it
was designed for freely. So don't worry about "using them up" because it's
impossible.
