Sabotender Notes[edit]

  • Deals 1000 points of physical damage divided by the number of targets within area of effect.
    • Radius is centered around the user.
  • Physical damage reduction traits can reduce this damage.

Monipulator Notes[edit]

  • Usable by Sabotender (MON) and Sabotender Florido (MON).
  • Frequently resisted by targets higher-leveled than the user.
    • Resists against a single target deal 500, 250, and even 125 damage on some NMs.
  • Deals additional damage to targets weak against Piercing Weapons: Dagger, Polearm, Archery, Marksmanship, Shuriken, Sharpshot Frame damage, such as birds and Bat Trios.
    • For example, using 1000 Needles on two groups of Dark Bats on Qufim Island or two Zus on Buburimu Peninsula deals 625 damage to each target due to the Piercing weakness.
    • If used against a single target weak against Piercing Weapons: Dagger, Polearm, Archery, Marksmanship, Shuriken, Sharpshot Frame damage, this attacks deals 1250 damage.
  • Targets resistant to Piercing Weapons: Dagger, Polearm, Archery, Marksmanship, Shuriken, Sharpshot Frame damage, such as Skeletons and Ghosts take reduced damage.

Blue Magic Notes[edit]

  • Cannot be partially resisted; either lands fully unresisted or "fails to take effect."
  • Damage is divided equally among all targets in Area of Effect. For example, if 4 targets are within range, each target takes 250 damage, assuming no resists.
  • Damage and accuracy are enhanced directly by the Merit job ability Convergence, giving 5 Magic Accuracy and 5% additional damage per merit.
  • A positive or negative Monster Correlation only affects accuracy. It does not affect damage.
  • Ballista reduces this spell's base damage to 750. All of the above still applies.
