Anyone understand how the gold stars/buttons work at the Customization Shop in PSP2?

Not sure if that is a good description.

At the shop where you can change class/customize your pallette, there is a menu with various gold stars/buttons that you can select up to 4 of.
I take it these are meant to focus what stats you level up when your class levels?
I can't read any Japanese so have been wondering if anyone knew what these did exactly, or for instance how the one that says 40%PP vs. the 50%PP one is any different?
I've also noticed that different classes get different choices, like my ranger can select a gold star that costs 2 slots out of the 4, though these could also be race specific. You also seem to get more gold stars/choices the higher you level.

Hope I've explained this enough to make sense. Anyone understand this system?

Thanks for any help understanding this.

They're abilities you can equip that give various effects. HP boost is +50hp, attackboost is +30ATP. PP escape save reduces PP cost of dodge roll by 40% and so on.

Google this and match up to what you have if you can't read it or something.

For some reason I imagined they were meant to work as stat modifiers when you leveled or raised your class.
Thanks for clearing this up for me and thanks for the link.
