Battle Cry

Battle Cry inspires all holy elohim who hear it, Increasing their Passion for 2 Cycles. Unlike usual, the Increase is applied before calculating the effects of other Songs currently being layered by the Minstrel, so any resulting Increase to SPP is applied to those other Songs. Also, when 4 SPP is invested by the Minstrel, affected allies’ Strikes gain 1 level of Passion Effect, regardless of the Target's Resolve, and the maximum Passion Effect levels are increased by 1. Additional maximum Passion Effect levels trigger at 40 Passion more than the previous level required (i.e. 120 more Passion, 160 more Passion, etc.). 

Blessed Battle Cry grants another maximum Passion Effect level if the Minstrel is investing at least 8 SPP. Righteous Battle Cry grants a third maximum Passion Effect level if the Minstrel is investing at least 12 SPP.

[In Flesh, there are no Passion Effects. Instead, affected characters gain +1, 2, or 3 Speed if at least 4, 8, or 12 SPP are invested respectively.]
