"Charge and Concentrate! They'll boost your damage by a ton... oh, especially if you use debuffs, too...! Er, if you wanna be a top-level S-Summoner, you have to, um... m-master your demon's skills..."
Charge (チャージ, Chaaji)?, also known as Focus (気合い, Kiai)? or Power Charge (パワーチャージ, Pawaa Chaaji)?, is a support skill.
Effect

This topic is in need of research for the following reason: * Soul Hackers 2 multiplier (+Concentrate) This can be discussed on the article's talk page. |
Charge increases the attack power for the user's Strength-based attacks (or in simplified cases, Physical) for the next turn by x2 or x2.5, depending on the game.
In Shin Megami Tensei IV, Charge boosts the user's next Physical attack by x2.5.
In Shin Megami Tensei V, Charge roughly increases the damage of the user's next Strength-based attack by x1.8. The effects of Charge do not wear off over time, and remain until the user casts a Strength-based attack, or when the battle is over. Charge cannot stack with Concentrate or other charging effects, and overrides their effect if used afterward. Counter and similar skills do not activate Charge.
In Persona 5, Charge and Concentrate can coexist on the same user. Charge boosts the user's next Physical or Gun attack by x2.5. A Multi-hit Physical skill would get bonus damage for every hit, but a Ranged Attack would only have the first shot boosted. In Royal, since Showtimes are considered Physical Almighty attacks, they will be boosted if Charge has been applied on the party member who triggers the Showtime.
In Tokyo Mirage Sessions ♯FE, Charge increases the damage of the user's next physical attack and any physical attack in its session by 2.5x.
