Valkyries

Valkyrie fighters play an integral role in Uta Macross. The middle phase, given that the player has filled up the bio fold wave gauge, will trigger Valkyrie Mode where the Valkyrie fighters shoot down the live boss with the assistance of the player's notes. While only the first Valkyrie fighter, the VF-1, is officially called the Valkyrie, the term Valkyrie has adapted over time in the Macross Universe to refer to a majority of variable fighter units. Valkyries in Uta Macross have 2 main stats: attack and accuracy. Attack is the raw damage output the player deals upon landing successful notes with their weapons charged. Accuracy, on the other hand, affects the probability of critical hits occurring with PERFECT notes during Valkyrie Mode. Both are needed in order to make the most out of Valkyrie Mode.
