Talk:Hidden Potential Activation/@comment-28010522-20170330145135

I copied-pasted directly from in-game's Hidden Potential's "How to Play," and selected only the main ones,

pre-requisite 1: 1. You must be Player Rank 50 or higher. 2. You must clear Stage 2 "Super Saiyan Goku" of the "An Epic Showdown" Event on Z-Hard.

pre-requisite 2: 1. Activating a character's Hidden Potential requires items called Potential Orbs. >>>>>>>> Need an Orb of the same Type as the character's Type 2. Only characters with a rarity of UR or higher can be developed further with Hidden Potential Activation.

Note: 1. As you progress in activating a character's Hidden Potential, the size of Potential Orbs required will change (prolly from S to M to L) 2. "Hidden Potential Stats" refer to a character's HP-ATK-DEF that have been boosted by the Hidden Potential Activation feature. >>>>>>>> Stats that will be boosted + the Types and the number of Potential Orbs required will vary depending on the node being activated.

3. Some nodes give you the choice to activate one of several optional Hidden Potential Skills. >>>>>>>> Once you've learned an optional skill, you can forget it by tapping its node again. Any skill node you forget will revert to its original state (as in reset to default). >>>>>>>> Forgetting a Hidden Potential Skill requires either Dragon Stones or an identical character. >>>>>>>> Nodes with optional skills are marked with a star.

4. Growth categories. <<<<<< someone or a few JPN players advised to take either the top-left (balance) or the bottom-right (high growth) >>>>>>>> Strengthening a character by activating the Hidden Potential is different for each character so the above information (balance; offense; HP & defense; high growth) may not always apply.

5. Roadblocks = To get past these obstacles and move on to further nodes, you must use an identical character to the one whose Hidden Potential that you are activating. >>>>>>>> An additional route can be unlocked even if the nodes leading up to it are still unactivated. >>>>>>>> It doesn't matter whether the identical character you use to unlock a route has been Z-Awakened or not, but Dokkan Awakened characters will be treated as different.

6. Reverse = Reverse will change a character's stats and Super Attack level to those of their Reversed states, which means they may go down temporarily. However, the reversed character can be restored to their previous status through the Reverse Dokkan Awakening. >>>>>>>> Reversing requires Incredible Hourglass awakening medal.

7. Reverse Dokkan Awakening = restore Reversed characters to their Dokkan Awakened status. Doesn't require any Awakening medals or Zeni. >>>>>>>> After Reverse Dokkan Awakening, characters are restored to their status before the Reverse. >>>>>>>> As with Z-Awakening and Dokkan Awakening, any activated Hidden Potential and boosted Super Attack levels will be carried over.
