Blue Mage: Best thread ever

[doctorugh]

Request: If someone who knows most of the fTP/mods for our blue spells, please list them on bgwiki. I've put several there that I could remember and use for a reference, but am missing several (Paralyzing triad, Glut. Dart, rending deluge, etc). If you have other info beyond fTP and mods, please stick that in their too (durations, proc rates for para, etc, damage type, monster type-for weakness/strength). This would be greatly appreciated and is used as an important blue mage resource for the community.

(My bad, found alot on the Blue mage guide for ffxiah - prothescar: I havent looked at in a long time, and didnt realize he keeps it up to date)

restoral healed me for 1040 with no gearswaps. will test parameters after I get diffusion ray.

sinker drill has got gravitation property. CDC -> SD = Darkness

Rail Cannon has WSC of some description.

[Vathris]

Restoral is from triple and rail cannon single? or it doesnt matter?

[stamos]

Doesn't matter

[Prothescar]

got them both from singles in Ule

[Vathris]

Thanks =/ i entered salvage, and now i want to know if its possible to learn 2 spells from 1 kills

[Prothescar]

store TP goes to tier 3

[arus2001]

So, for someone who hasn't really played since Abyssea ended, where's the best place to get the new spells easily? Just picked up Erratic Flutter and am off to Ule for the couple from gears, but I don't know what the heck half the Adoulin mobs are or where they might lurk.

[Isiolia]

The Blue Mage Hunting Grounds page has locations to go for them.

To add/comment on the information they have, Thrashing Assault and Subduction can be done pretty easily back-to-back via Meeble Burrows in Batallia. Adjunct 1 has Meebles, and if you clear that by killing a Lynx as well, you can do Adjunct 2, which has Maroliths.

[stamos]

Cirdas Caverns has Maroliths.

[dasva]

Is there any place but meebles that has a meeble?

[Hitou]

Nope. Any meeble outside of meeble burrows so far has been an npc.

[dasva]

Sinkers other element is reverberation. So skullbreaker + sinker = frag

[Prothescar]

Diffusion Ray - 2.0dINT, 40%MND, 5.0 Multiplier

Rail Cannon - 2.0dINT, 40%MND, 6.0 Multiplier

Sinker Drill - 1.0fTP @ 0, 100% something WSC, likely 50% STR 50% DEX or 100% DEX

Restoral - 640HP base cure, +1.5HP per MND and +0.5HP per VIT, affected by cure potency and self cure potency received, self target only.

[dasva]

Shame it's not effected by healing magic skill like old blu cures

Also does mortal ray not work anymore? I just had it land on an urganite and a minute later it just said it wore off but no dead mob

[Draylo]

Did you walk too far away?

[dasva]

Did you walk too far away?

After waiting a minute yeah I walked away and then it said it wore off. I knew about it wearing off if you go too far away but I thought it was supposed to kill in 60 sec

[Prothescar]

Shame it's not effected by healing magic skill like old blu cures

it probably is, I didn't try. it's basically just a self target magic fruit with a big base HP heal

[Priran]

156 MND, 155 VIT, 133 Healing Magic: 901
156 MND, 155 VIT, 370 Healing Magic: 901

Oh no I meant I tried. no arts and light arts gave me the same amounts
