Formations offer a variety of different bonuses and
influence skill ranges in battle. You can increase the number
of formations available to you by increasing the Player Growth Attribute Tactician
.
The following table has several examples of starting formations and how the range of skills can affect creatures within them. For a more thorough explanation of skill ranges, go here.
During battle your creature's position in a formation affects their defensive and offensive abilities.
During battle the opposing creature's formation is mirrored, so do not worry about the effects changing during PVP.
Creatures receive a 5% bonus to both VIT and RES if they are next to an ally that is alive within their formation. Creatures away from each other receive a 5% bonus to SPD regardless of the state of their allies.
