Unlike other blast types, infinity blasts do not provide the user with invulnerability, meaning that the player may die during the blast. Items also cannot be used.
Beasts require a blast badge in order to transform. This is a kind of tattoo beasts have on their arm, and different blast badges will result in different forms with different abilities. A beast of at least LV10 can purchase or change a blast badge for 10,000 Meseta at the Salon in Clad 6's Style Shop. As the beast rises in level, additional blast badges will become available.
