Altered Pieces increase one of the targeted character's stats by 50 points for 2 hours. Their cool-down time is 3 seconds. The effect is not canceled by death. Using this item while a Purified Piece effect is active will override that effect. Altered Pieces yield higher effect than Purified Pieces while the stat it boosts is below 334. Altered Pieces are Cash Shop items. Trainee's Altered Pieces only give 25 points for 1 hour, but for a new character, the difference is huge.
