Yanfly Engine Plugins is a plugin library made for RPG Maker MV, a wonderful piece of software to help you make that role playing game of your dreams. You can find out more about RPG Maker MV here.

The Truthseeker is a passive ability from Final Fantasy Record Keeper. When the user of the passive has a sword-type weapon equipped, the user will deal more damage overall. Here’s how to recreate the effect in RPG Maker MV!

You can grab the copy/paste code here: Insert the following Lunatic Mode code into your passive state’s notebox. Change the values in red to reflect your game’s settings.

<Custom Passive Condition>
// Set the default condition to false.
condition = false;
// Check if the party is in battle.
if ($gameParty.inBattle()) {
  // Check if the user is an actor.
  if (user.isActor()) {
    // Get the sword weapon-type ID
    var swordTypeId = 2;
    // get the user's currently equipped weapons.
    var weapons = user.weapons();
    // Loop through each weapon
    for (var i = 0; i < weapons.length; ++i) {
      // Get the currently looped weapon
      var weapon = weapons[i];
      // Check if the weapon exists and if the weapon's type is a sword
      if (weapon && weapon.wtypeId === swordTypeId) {
        // Set the condition to true
        condition = true;
      }
    }
  }
}
</Custom Passive Condition>

<Custom Confirm Effect>
// Check if the action dealt HP damage
if (this.isHpEffect() && value > 0) {
  // Calculate the amount of bonus damage dealt
  var bonus = Math.ceil(value * 0.40);
  // Add that to the finalized damage
  value += bonus;
}
</Custom Confirm Effect>

Enjoy!
