Techniques and Spells

Most techniques can be used both in melee battle and on the field. For field techs, the range of a tech is how far you can put the target square, and the effect is how many squares are affected by the technique. (Your own square is always included in the effect.) For example, a range/effect of 2/2 means you can send the square two squares in any of the four directions from you, and it will affect a cross pattern of a center square plus one in any direction. (Range of 0 means you can only target yourself, and effect of 1 means the technique only affects the target square.) "Target" means the target in melee battle, and Range/Effect refers to the field use. If it can't be used on the field, this shows N/A. Note that even if the melee Target is One, if it's used on the field it'll automatically affect all characters/enemies in the target unit.

Recall that generally field attacks cannot hurt allies or heal the enemy. The exceptions are: some Mini-Devil Dances, using heal spells against Death-elemental enemies, or using (e.g.) fire attacks against fire-elemental enemies (it'll be healed). Also using HP drain attacks against Death-elemental enemies will work backwards (you'll be hurt and they'll be healed). Note that HP Drain attacks are treated the same as healing attacks as far as affecting terrain (e.g. turning Poison Swamps into Swamps).

The EXP Multiplier shown is explained in Stats.

The Associated Stat refers to the dragon associated with the party. See Stats for more details on specific stats. If that stat is less than level 1 for the dragon, the associated technique/spell will not be shown and will be unavailable for use. Dragon Techs are used by the dragons themselves so obviously the stat is for that dragon. If the stat has a * next to it, that means that the character can ALWAYS use that magic (at level 1) even if the associated stat for his dragon is at 0 (unless the dragon is a Uni Uni/Black Dragon or Unknown Form/Behemoth, in which case even the base techs can't be used; they're replaced with other techs). Note that all "Uni" techniques have a high possibility that the "Failure" tech will be done instead (it does nothing, and has a multiplier of 1). See Dragons for more info.

Enemies can use a variety of techniques, including Summons, Black Magic, White Magic, Swordtech, Dance Spells, and Dragon Techs. They can also use a bunch of their own Enemy Spells. However, the Dance spells are slightly different when done by enemies.

ALL poison-elemental damage has a chance of poisoning its target.

Red Magic has one spell from White Magic and one from Black Magic. I.e. if two Summoners and a White Mage want to cast White Drug, it'll add the level of three characters. (Only the technique matters, not its category.)

Dances (Mini-Devil)

The Dances will be executed randomly when Devil Dance/Fright Dance/Reggae Dance is chosen. On the field they more or less always affect a radius of 0/4. Dance uses no MP. The level of any type of Dance raises with a dragon's Mind, but can be used at level 1 even if the dragon's Mind is at level 0. There are three types of Dance. Regular Dance has differences depending on what level the Mini-Devil is at (certain spells can only be executed at certain levels). The other two, Reggae Dance (if the associated dragon is an Unknown/Behemoth) and Fright Dance (for Uni Uni/Black Dragon), have no difference with levels.

Devil Dance

All spells have effect/range of 0/4.
