As Princess Celeste continued her enthusiastic explanation, Marcus gradually got a better grasp of how chain attacks worked. There were two main ways to obtain a chain attack skill.
The first was through self-realization. A player had to master their class and its related skills, then combine and refine their techniques until they eventually found a way to link them together. Princess Phoenix's Phoenix's Fury Chain Combo was exactly that kind of self-realized skill.
The problem was that self-realization was brutally difficult. Skill mastery alone wasn't enough. A player also needed the right opportunity, enough experience, and a fair amount of luck. In most cases, reaching Level 80 was the minimum before someone had a realistic chance of developing a chain attack on their own.
