| {{nihongo|'''Magic'''|まほう|Mahou}} is a type of skill that appears throughout the ''{{c|Kingdom Hearts|series}}'' series.
| | [[File:Spell Orb.png|thumb|A spell orb, the visualization of an obtained spell.]] |
| | '''Magic''' is both a form of combat and a stat parameter appearing in the ''[[Kingdom Hearts]]'' series. |
|
| |
|
| Magic can be either offensive or supportive, and it differs from weapon skills in that its usage is generally limited by some factor, such as the player's current [[MP]], and that its potency is determined by the {{c|Magic|stat|Magic stat}} (maximum MP in ''{{c|Kingdom Hearts|game}}''). In ''Kingdom Hearts'', ''[[Kingdom Hearts II]]'', and ''[[Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days]]'', offensive magic is the only way to inflict elemental damage. Additionally, many types of magic inflict [[status effect]]s on enemies. | | Magic is one of two forms of basic offense that [[Sora]] and many other characters in the series can perform, the other being weapon-based attacks, and, although the use of magic is limited by the character's remaining MP, it is, in most cases, perceptibly more powerful than physical attacks, as well as capable of inflicting elemental damage. Party members who excel with the use of magic include [[Donald Duck]], [[Ariel]] and [[Jack Skellington]]. Most summoned characters will use some form Magic as a primary form of attack, with summoning being regarded as a form of magic in ''[[Kingdom Hearts (game)|Kingdom Hearts]]'' and ''[[Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories]]'' but becoming tied to the [[Drive Gauge]] in ''[[Kingdom Hearts II]]''. |
|
| |
|
| [[Party members]] who specialize in magic include [[Donald Duck]], [[Jack Skellington]], and [[Zexion]].{{fact}} | | Magical power seems to be at least vaguely related to intelligence, as noted by the descriptions of the the [[Dream Rod]] and [[Struggle Bats|Struggle Wand]], as well as by the name of the [[Wisdom Form]]. Unlike fighting, which seems to be able to be mastered by practice alone, it appears that magic must be taught, learned and studied. |
|
| |
|
| Magical power is associated with wisdom, as indicated by the descriptions of the [[Dream Rod]] and [[Struggle Wand]], as well as [[Wisdom Form]]. It is also associated with the color blue, the color of the [[MP gauge]]s appearing in ''Kingdom Hearts'' and ''Kingdom Hearts II'', the color of [[magic card]]s in ''[[Kingdom Hearts Chain of Memories]]'', and the signature color of Wisdom Form. In the menus, magic is represented by a symbol of Donald's mage hat.
| | Magic is often associated with the color blue, with MP being represented by a blue meter in the status bar. In ''Kingdom Hearts'', there was an additional gold bar called Charge Units overlapping the blue MP Meter to represent [[MP Recovery]], and which could be used as additional MP, however, in ''Kingdom Hearts II'', this bar does not appear, and upon expending his MP, Sora must wait for the magic recharge gauge to be refilled before he is able to cast any further spells. |
|
| |
|
| In ''Kingdom Hearts'' and ''Kingdom Hearts II'', choosing the [[Dream Rod]] in the [[Dive to the Heart]] grants greater magic-casting ability upon [[level]]ing up earlier in-game. Magic-focused play styles are considered to be among the more difficult to use, owing largely to the care that must be taken of elemental effects, as some enemies may either be immune to and/or healed by certain elements, as well as the limitation of a finite amount of MP which must be carefully managed, with the assistance of restorative [[items]] and [[abilities]] such as [[MP Haste]] and [[MP Rage]].
| | MP may be recovered by dealing damage to enemies; by stepping into a [[Save Point]] and allowing the MP gauge to refill; by the use of an [[Ether]], [[Mega-Ether]] or [[Elixir]]; by the use of a [[Tent]] (''KHII'') or a [[Cottage]] (''KHI'') or by picking up the bubble-like MP Orbs dropped by enemies and by the wisps appearing in the [[Underworld]]. |
|
| |
|
| ==Usage==
| | Magic-heavy playing styles are considered to be among the more difficult to use effectively, largely due to the attention that must be paid to elemental differentiation, as some enemies will not be harmed and may even be healed when attacked by certain elements, and the clear limitation imposed by possessing a finite amount of MP, which is only partially remedied by a large stock of restorative items and further by abilities such as ''MP Haste'' and ''MP Rage''. |

| |
| Many individuals in the ''Kingdom Hearts'' universe are capable of using magic. All wielders of the [[Keyblade]] are capable of learning magic, and magic of the Keyblade itself is capable of great feats, being able to lock a [[world]]'s [[Keyhole]], open [[gate]]s, and transform into different forms. Some specialize in the use of magic, such as Donald Duck, [[Merlin]], and [[Yen Sid]]. Those that are adept at magic can use it in a wide variety of uses outside of combat, such as transformations, transportation between worlds, realms, or even time periods, or casting enchantments or curses. Like many techniques, spells are often accompanied by an invocation, such as "Light!" when casting a [[Holy]] spell.

| [[File:MP Orb KHII.png|thumb|An MP orb.]] | | *[[Blizzard]] |
| There are seven types of basic magic that become available throughout ''Kingdom Hearts'', which are upgraded upon reaching certain milestones, up to maximum of three tiers. They are accessible from the [[Commands#Command Menu|Command Menu]] under "Magic", and three of them can be set to shortcuts at a time for easy access during battle.
| | *[[Thunder]] |
| | *[[Cure]] |
| | *[[Aero]] (''Kingdom Hearts'', ''Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories'', ''Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days'', ''Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep'' and ''Kingdom Hearts Re:coded''.) |
| | *[[Gravity]] (''Kingdom Hearts'', ''Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories'' and ''Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep'' as "Zero Gravity".) |
| | *[[Stop]] (''Kingdom Hearts'', ''Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories'', ''Kingdom Hearts Re:coded'' and ''Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep''.) |
| | *[[Magnet]] (''Kingdom Hearts II'', ''Kingdom Hearts: Birth by Sleep'', ''Kingdom Hearts Re:coded''.) |
| | *[[Reflect]] (''Kingdom Hearts II'', ''Kingdom Hearts: Birth by Sleep'' as Aqua's "Barrier" Defence Command.) |
| | *[[Sleight#Magic Sleights|Holy]] (''Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep'', ''Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories'', ''Kingdom Hearts Re:Chain of Memories'', ''Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days'' as The King's Limit Break and ''Kingdom Hearts Re:coded'' as a Finish Command.) |
| | *[[Esuna]] (''Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep'', ''Kingdom Hearts Re:coded''.) |
| | *[[Slow]] (''Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep'', ''Kingdom Hearts Re:coded''.) |
| | *[[Confuse]] (''Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep'', ''Kingdom Hearts Re:coded''.) |
| | *[[Poison]] (''Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep''.) |

|
| Casting magic costs MP, which can be recovered by collecting [[MP Orb]]s, attacking enemies, using restorative items such as [[Ether]]s, or by touching a [[Save Point]]. Some party members' {{c|abilities|KH}} can also restore MP. The length of the MP gauge determines how effective magic casts are, and as basic magic gets upgraded to higher tiers, it will become even more powerful.
| | ==Magic Power== |
| | [[File:Terra Zero Gravity.jpg|thumb|400px|Terra using Zero Gravity magic.]] |
| | The amount of damage caused by an individual spell is governed by the spell's base power combined with either the caster's max MP (in ''Kingdom Hearts'') or magic power (in ''Kingdom Hearts II'') through a set formula, in addition to any elemental strengths or weaknesses possessed by the target of the spell coupled with any [[ability|abilities]] that boost the power of certain element. |
|
| |
|
| In ''Kingdom Hearts'', [[summon]]ing is categorized as magic.
| | Each standard magic power, with the exception of Holy, appears in three tiers of increasing power denoted by a particular suffix appended to the end of the spell's name. Base-tier spells bear no special suffix, but set the precedent for the names of other spells of the same element. Second-tier spells generally append ''-ra'' or ''-ara'', sometimes dropping the final syllable of the original spell (cf. Blizzard > Blizzara; Reflect > Reflera etc.), whereas third-tier spells will generally append ''-ga'', ''-aga'' or ''-ega''. Once he has acquired all of the first-tier spells in ''Kingdom Hearts'', [[Merlin]] will present Sora with the [[Spellbinder]] Keyblade. |
|
| |
|
| ===''Kingdom Hearts Chain of Memories''===
| | A pair of negative suffixes -gun and -agun, make an appearance in the battles against the [[Volcanic Lord]] and the [[Blizzard Lord]], and are seen in fourth-level magic armor. They do not appear to have originated with ''Final Fantasy'' titles, but rather to be exclusive to the ''Kingdom Hearts'' series, though whether or not these are spells is debatable. |
| {{main|Magic card|Sleight#Magic Sleights|l2=Magic sleights}}
| |
| [[Magic card]]s represent the types of magic that appeared in ''Kingdom Hearts''. They are colored blue, as are [[summon card]]s. By using [[sleight]]s, higher-tiered magic can be used in battle, as can advanced magic techniques, such as [[Tornado]] and [[Mega Flare]]. | |
|
| |
|
| ===''Kingdom Hearts II''===
| | Certain abilities may also influence the power of magic, though these generally have more weight in ''Kingdom Hearts II'', in which the [[Keyblade]], Donald's staff, and [[Goofy]]'s shield held abilities themselves. Abilities that affect magic include: |
| There are six types of basic magic in ''Kingdom Hearts II'', which are upgraded upon reaching certain milestones, up to a maximum of three tiers. They are accessible from the [[Commands#Command Menu|Command Menu]] under "Magic", and four of them can be set to shortcuts at one time for easy access during battle. Most magic can be cast in combos, similarly to [[attack]] combos, ending with a slightly more powerful magic finisher. Magic combos are affected by combo-related abilities, such as [[Combo Plus]] and [[Finishing Plus]], and magic attacks can be interspersed with weapon attacks in one combo. [[Magnet]] and [[Cure]] magic cannot be used to make a combo.
| |
|
| |
|
| Casting magic costs MP, which can be recovered by collecting MP orbs, using restorative items such as Ethers, entering a [[Drive Form]], or by touching a Save Point. If the MP gauge is fully emptied, [[MP Charge]] begins, during which the gauge is replaced with the pink Charge gauge. While the Charge gauge gradually empties, magic cannot be used, but portions of the gauge can be emptied immediately in the same manner as recovering MP.
| | *[[MP Recovery]] |
| | | *[[MP Charge]] |
| Wisdom Form, [[Master Form]], and [[Final Form]] have abilities that enhance the casting of magic, while [[Valor Form]] and [[Limit Form]] disable the use of magic.
| |
| | |
| ===''Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days''===
| |
| {{see also|Panel System#Magic Panels|l1=Panel System|Magic Panel}}
| |
| In ''Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days'', magic can be used during missions when magic panels are installed into the [[Panel System|panel grid]]. The number of available casts for a type of basic magic is determined by the number of installed panels for that type, but casts can be restored mid-mission by using items such as Ethers. Linking basic magic panels to special magic panels will [[Magic Panel#Leveling Magic|increase the level]] or [[Magic Panel#Multiple Casts|grant multiple casts]] of that magic.
| |
| | |
| There are five varieties of magic that appear, each with three tiers; however, unlike in other games, different tiers of one type of magic will have different effects. For example, [[Fire]] launches a homing fireball, Fira shoots a penetrating fireball straight ahead, and Firaga launches a large fireball with slight homing capabilities into the air, after which it explodes.
| |
| | |
| ===''Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep''===
| |
| {{main|Magic command (KHBBS)}}
| |
| In ''Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep'', a wide variety of magic techniques are available, basic and advanced, in the form of magic commands. As with {{c|attack command|KHBBS}}s, magic commands go through a cool-down period before they can be used again, but otherwise, their use is not limited.
| |
| | |
| Magic commands may be dropped by enemies, purchased from shops, found in small [[treasure chest]]s, or obtained from various [[mini-games]], such as the [[Command Board]].
| |
| | |
| <!--Can we say anything about coded?-->
| |
| ===''Kingdom Hearts Re:coded''===
| |
| {{main|Magic command (KHREC)}}
| |
| In ''Kingdom Hearts Re:coded'', magic commands return in the same capacity as in ''Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep''.
| |
| | |
| They may be found in [[rare prize blox]], purchased from shops, or awarded for high ranks in boss battles.<!--What else is there to say?-->
| |
| | |
| ===''Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance''===
| |
| {{main|Magic command (KH3D)}}
| |
| In ''Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance'', magic commands return in the same capacity as in ''Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep'' and ''Kingdom Hearts Re:coded''.
| |
| | |
| Magic commands may be purchased from shops, found in large chests, obtained through [[Ability Link]] or won from mini-games.<!--What else is there to say?-->
| |
| | |
| ===''Kingdom Hearts 0.2 Birth by Sleep -A fragmentary passage-''===
| |
| ''Kingdom Hearts 0.2 Birth by Sleep -A fragmentary passage-'' uses the same magic system from ''Kingdom Hearts II''.
| |
| | |
| There are only four types of basic magic available, which are at their respective third tiers from the beginning. They are accessible from the [[Command Menu]] under "Magic", and four of them can be set to shortcuts at one time for easy access during battle. Most magic can be cast in combos, similarly to attack combos, ending with a slightly more powerful magic finisher.{{?}}
| |
| | |
| Casting magic costs MP, which can be recovered by collecting MP orbs, using restorative items such as Ethers, or by touching a Save Point. If the MP gauge is fully emptied, MP Charge begins, during which the gauge is replaced with the pink Charge gauge. While the Charge gauge gradually empties, magic cannot be used, but portions of the gauge can be emptied immediately in the same manner as recovering MP.
| |
| | |
| In addition to standard magic, magic [[Situation Command]]s are introduced. If the gauge above the Command Menu is filled by inflicting damage with magic, a Situation Command will appear above the Command Menu for the attribute that was used the most to fill the gauge. The tier will be one above the tier of the magic that was used.
| |
| | |
| ===''Kingdom Hearts III''===
| |
| ''Kingdom Hearts III'' uses the same magic system as ''Kingdom Hearts II'' and ''Kingdom Hearts 0.2 Birth by Sleep -A fragmentary passage-''.
| |
| | |
| There are six types of basic magic, with three tiers becoming available upon reaching certain milestones. Unlike in past ''Kingdom Hearts'' games, higher tiers of magic consume more MP; for instance, [[Fire]] costs 10 MP, Fira 14 MP, and Firaga 20 MP. They are accessible from the Command Menu under "Magic", and each type of magic can be switched to any of the available tiers in the menu for access in the field. Up to twelve of them can be set to shortcuts at one time for easy access during battle. Most magic can be cast in combos, similarly to attack combos, ending with a slightly more powerful magic finisher. Magic combos are affected by combo-related abilities, such as Combo Plus and [[Magic Galvanizer]], and magic attacks can be interspersed with weapon attacks in one combo.{{?}} [[Cure]] magic cannot be used to make a combo.
| |
| | |
| Casting magic costs MP, which can be recovered by collecting MP orbs, using restorative items such as Ethers, or by touching a Save Point. If the MP gauge is fully emptied, MP Charge begins, during which the gauge is replaced with the pink Charge gauge. While the MP Charge gauge gradually empties, magic cannot be used, but portions of the gauge can be emptied immediately in the same manner as recovering MP.
| |
| | |
| The way offensive magic is cast can change based on the current [[Formchange]]. The different styles of magic casting are:
| |
| *{{nihongo|'''{{a|Basic Style}}'''|基本スタイル|Kihon Sutairu}}: The standard use of magic. Each type of offensive magic has a unique casting effect. This style is used by every Keyblade's base form, [[Second Form]], [[Counter Shield]], [[Mirage Staff]], [[Nano Arms]], {{c|Frying Pan|Formchange}}, [[Ultimate Form]], [[Light Form]], [[Dark Form]] and [[Double Form]].
| |
| *{{nihongo|'''{{a|Proximity Style}}'''|近接スタイル|Kinsetsu Sutairu}}: Offensive magic is cast in a dome or circle around Sora, damaging nearby enemies in a manner similar to Fire magic in ''Kingdom Hearts II''. This style is used by [[Hyper Hammer]], [[Agile Claws]], [[Blizzard Claws]], [[Blizzard Blades]], [[Storm Flag]] and [[Boom Hammer]].
| |
| *{{nihongo|'''{{a|Dual Style}}'''|二連スタイル|Ni-ren Sutairu}}: Offensive magic is cast as small projectiles that are fired in paired bursts. Each successive tier of magic increases the number of projectiles per burst by one. This style is used by [[Double Arrowguns]], [[Twin Yo-Yos]], and [[Hunny Blasters]].
| |
| *{{nihongo|'''{{a|Artillery Style}}'''|砲撃スタイル|Hōgeki Sutairu}}: Offensive magic is cast as a large cannonball-like projectile that explodes on impact, similar to Firaga in ''Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days''. This style is used by [[Magic Launcher]], [[Drill Punch]], [[Hunny Launcher]], {{c|Highwind|Formchange}}, and [[Clock Drill]].
| |
| Additionally, the effect of offensive magic changes when they are cast underwater.
| |
| | |
| As playable characters, [[Riku]] has access to [[Thundaga]] and Curaga magic, while [[Aqua]] has access to Firaga, [[Blizzaga]], Thundaga, and Curaga.<!-- As allies, Riku can use [[Dark Firaga]]; Aqua can use Blizzaga, Thundaga, and Curaga; [[Mickey]] can use [[Faith]] and Curaga; [[Kairi]] can use Curaga; [[Xion]] can use Curaga.--><!--what are we including for magic? Donald's techniques? what else that doesn't fall under the basic set? anything that uses the magic stat?-->
| |
| | |
| In ''Kingdom Hearts III Re Mind'', as playable characters, [[Roxas]] can use [[Waterga]] and Curaga, while Kairi has access to all six spells.
| |
| | |
| The magic Situation Commands from ''Kingdom Hearts 0.2 Birth by Sleep -A fragmentary passage-'' return, now called '''Grand Magic'''. Again, Grand Magic commands will be one tier above the magic that triggered them. Certain {{c|abilities|kh3}} obtained through equipping specific weapons or accessories or through a [[Full Course Bonus]] allow grand magic commands to generate more easily during battle, as well as grant access to the otherwise unavailable Curaza command.

| ==Origin and naming==
| |
| Many of the magic that appears in the ''Kingdom Hearts'' series borrows heavily from {{ff|Magic (command)|magic}} in the {{ff|Final Fantasy (series)|''Final Fantasy'' series}}. This includes elemental types, as well as specific spells, such as {{ff|Fire (Ability)|Fire}}, {{ff|Curaga}}, and {{ff|Reflect (Ability)|Reflect}}. The distinction between {{ff|Black Magic|Black}}, or offensive magic, and {{ff|White Magic|White}}, or supportive magic, is not carried over to ''Kingdom Hearts'', however.
| |
| | |
| Also borrowed from ''Final Fantasy'' is the naming convention of basic magic. In most installments of ''Final Fantasy'', the second and third tiers of magic are usually denoted by the suffixes ''-ra'' and ''-ga'', respectively. This convention is followed in ''Kingdom Hearts'', with one notable exception: While the fourth tier of magic in ''Final Fantasy'', when included, is ''-ja'', ''Kingdom Hearts'' uses the suffix ''-gun'', localized in English as ''-za'' in ''[[Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance]]'' and ''[[Kingdom Hearts III]]'' and ''-ja'' in ''[[Kingdom Hearts 0.2 Birth by Sleep -A fragmentary passage-]]''. Some [[Accessory|accessories]] are named after the fourth tier of magic, using the suffix ''-gun'' (e.g., [[Firagun Bangle]]), as are two [[Reaction Command]]s, [[Firagun]] and [[Blizzagun]].
| |
| | |
| ==Abilities==<!--DO WE NEED THIS-->
| |
| Certain abilities enhance or facilitate the use of magic, generally by boosting magical damage, elemental damage, or MP recovery.

Gravity grounds aerial enemies, making them easier to hit with standard attacks in addition to inflicting a rather sizable amount of damage to enemies with high HP, and can, at higher levels, destroy several enemies in a single casting. Magnet brings enemies together at a certain point, making stationary attacks easier to execute, whereas Stop freezes enemies in suspended animation, allowing for an easy kill, though the damage acquired while frozen in time does not appear until the end of the spell's duration. |

| | The elemental spells do not really change from the first Kingdom Hearts, a decision made to help reflect the direct continuation of events that this game serves as. |
| *'''Cure''': Restores a small amount of HP.
| | *'''Blizzard''': Change from being a shotgun-style spell to flying a short range and then causing a minor explosion of ice that can, if timed right, hit multiple enemies. This was changed because in Chain of Memories the battle area is much much smaller than previously encountered, and it is likely that the developers didn't want the shotgun spread of Blizzard to make it too useful. However, Blizzard remains the same from its Kingdom Hearts counterpart in Kingdom Hearts Re:Chain of Memories |

| | *'''Blizzara''': Acts like it did in Chain of Memories |
| | *'''Blizzaga''': When cast, becomes a mine that stays in place and explodes with awesome icy destruction when an enemy (or ally if the players have friendly fire activated) comes within range. |
| | *'''Thunder''': Becomes a line of fast-moving lightning bolts that travel straight and can hit multiple enemies, but if not done right will only hit once for minor damage. |
| | *'''Thundara''': Creates a field around the character wherein multiple lightning bolts shoot down, attacking friend and foe alike--very good for attacking multiple opponents but otherwise unusually weak for a level two spell. |
| | *'''Thundaga''': A giant bolt of lightning that hits twice, first as the bolt itself, then as a secondary radial attack from the epicenter. |

| [[File:Esuna REC.gif|thumb|Data-Sora using Esuna in ''Kingdom Hearts Re:coded'']] | | In ''Kingdom Hearts II'', Fire, Blizzard, and Thunder act very differently from previous games. |
| *'''Esuna''': Cures all negative status effects and restores a small amount of HP. | | *'''Fire''': Surrounds Sora with a rotating circle of flames, harming all enemies right next to him; its range and power grows as the spell upgrades. [[File:Fire KHII.png|thumb|right|In ''Kingdom Hearts II'', the Fire spell is a surrounding attack rather than a projectile.]] |

| | *'''Blizzard''': Flies straight ahead and hits with a minor explosion, although it does not harm enemies near the explosion site. [[File:Blizzard_KH2_FM.png|thumb|Sora using Blizzard]] |
| | *'''Thunder''': As usual, fires straight down, but in KH2 the player doesn't have to worry about ledges providing cover. Also, Thundaga has an excellent 'spread' on the ground, hitting any enemies too close to the target. |

| | Wisdom Form enables Sora to shoot magic bullets in lieu of his normal physical attacks, enabling combos at a distance but at a reduced power considering the other forms, as only one keyblade may be used in this form. Only the standard magic powers consume MP, however, and spells may be cast with the greatest speed in this form, which also possesses the quickest MP recovery rate, with Wisdom Form being one of only two ways in which the strongest MP recovery skill, MP Hastega, may be equipped, the other being the [[Ultima Weapon]]. |

| ====''Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep''====
| | Any magic power used in Master Form will cause a slightly different effect than it normally would, usually incorporating some sort of additional keyblade attack. Sora will charge forward when casting Fire, and performs a dance-like combo while casting Thunder and will cast a double-Blizzard that goes to either side rather than straight forward. The use of two keyblades, which combine their magic stats, lends Master form extra spellcasting power, in addition to the [[Endless Magic]] ability, which allows magical combos to continue indefinitely, but this disables magic combo finishers entirely. Master form also boasts the second-highest magic recovery rate in automatically equipping the powerful ''MP Hastera'' skill. |

| ====''Kingdom Hearts Re:coded''====
| | Sora, in his Final Form, has the strongest magic potential of any party member, despite having the slowest MP recovery of any magic-using drive form. Thanks to the boosts of magic-oriented abilities and the use of two keyblades in similar fashion to Master Form, Final Form Sora can attack multiple times and with much more power with the amount of magic any other form would require to land one hit. Final Form is able to augment the power of the spells themselves for maximum efficiency, calling upon multiple bolts of lightning, or launching two blasts of ice with a single casting. Although it is the weakest MP recovery skill, Final Form possesses ''MP Haste'', in addition to the very powerful magic-augmenting skill ''Crime and Punishment''. |
