Extend Type
Extend Type is a system in Phantasy Star Portable 2 Infinity that allows players to pick and choose what weapons their types can equip. Being able to equip a weapon type requires the spending of Extend Points, which allows the currently selected type to wear higher grade weaponry. No weapons are locked by type, however the cost of increasing equippable grades varies depending on the weapon type and character type (e.g. Sword costs less to extend than on Force). The amount of Extend Points a type has depends on the Type's level.
Extend Type is accessed at the Type Counter in the Battle Shop.
Total Extend Points
Depending on the currently selected Type's level, the player will have a certain amount of Extend Points to spend on increasing their equippable weapon's grades. Spent Extend Points are not permanently lost, and can always be regained by decreasing the rank of a weapon type.
Even at Type level 50, it is not possible to increase all weapon types to grade S, so it is important for the player to decide what weapon types they would like to use.

Depending on the selected type and weapon type that the player wishes to up the rank of, the cost of doing so will vary. A type can be considered "good", "average" or "poor" with a weapon type, and this reflects on the Extend costs, which can be seen below.
