In Command Battle mode, all the movement and actual attacks are handled by the AI, but what they decide to do is based on what command you've selected. Attack -> your character will execute brave attacks at any given opportunity Death Blow/Special -> your character will execute HP attacks at any given opportunity Guard -> the character will hover around the enemy and attempt to guard attacks, possibly countering Summon -> summons manual summons EX Core -> the character will head towards an EX core Weapon/Job/Trance/etc -> the character will go into EX mode
