Charge being cast in Shin Megami Tensei V.

Effect[]
This topic is in need of research for the following reason: * How does Charge interact with Baton Pass? Can the user make use of it if they're the recipient of Baton Pass right after? 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.
