'''HiRes''' is a 4th-level [[Yellow (Element)|Yellow]] [[Element]] in {{CC}}.
{{nihongo|'''HiRes'''|ハイプロテクト|hai purotekuto|"High Protect"}} is a 4th-level [[Yellow (Element)|Yellow]] [[Element]] in {{CC}}. Temporarily increasing a single ally's [[Defense]], its counterpart is [[LoRes]]. After assisting the sailors on the [[S.S. Invincible]] defeat the [[Ghost Ship]], HiRes, and several other strong elements, Traps, [[Buff]]s and [[Debuff]]s are purchasable from the [[Demi-human]] merchant in [[Guldove]] and on [[Marbule]]. HiRes is valued at 430[[G]] in each of these markets. Commonly, [[Geos]] drop it after battles. It can be [[Pilfer|Pilfered]] or [[Snatch|Snatched]] from [[Googhoul]] and [[Cybot (Chrono Cross)|Cybot]] on rare occasions.

Specifically, HiRes maximizes a single ally's Defense, regardless of level allocation. Because of this, it is wasteful to set HiRes and other Buff/Debuff Elements any higher than the level 1 allocation spot on an Element Grid. Although this will depict the Element as being -3, no quality difference is noticeable in-game; the character with HiRes cast on them will still receive the same boosts for several turns.


==Enemy Element==
While the Element is identical in animation and innate allocation level, several different enemies use it and have it allocated at different levels. For instance, [[Beeba]] cast HiRes as level 2 Elements (HiRes -2), while [[Acacia PVT]] and [[Acacia SGT]] cast it as level 5 Elements (HiRes +1). [[Dwarf|Dwarves]] cast it as both 4th level Elements and 5th level Elements (HiRes +1). Googhouls and [[Rockroach]]es cast it at its traditional 4th level, while [[Cassowary]] and [[Gurgoyle]] cast it as Level 3 Elements (HiRes -1). [[Wight Knight]]s have HiRes twice on their Element grids and cast it as level 7 Elements (HiRes +3).
==Description==
When the player casts this element, an iridescent sphere encompasses the target.
==Name Origin==
HiRes is a portmanteau of "high" and "resilience". Resilience is the primary stat that defines character's defense so higher resilience leads to higher defense.
