Select a Magilumic Orb from Commands

While in combat, you can select which Magilumic Orb to use from your Commands screen. As this is under Mercenaries' Equipment, you can use any Magilumic Orb regardless of which character you select.

Spend TP to Use the Magilumic Orb

Unlike Weapons Skills that use EP, Magiumic Orbs require TP in order to be used. Each Magilumic Orb will require at least 1 full TP gauge to be used. You can track the amount of TP you currently have with the TP gauge at the lower right corner of your screen.

Note: Some Magilumic Orbs like the Goldhorne will require you to spend 2 TP in order to use. Pay attention to the amount needed especially when you are banking on the orb's effects to win the battle.

Walk Over Blue Jade Fragments to Get TP

TP can mainly be found on the battlefield as blue Jade Fragments dropped by killing enemies in combat. Killing enemies doesn't automatically give you TP, you will have to walk over the blue Jade Fragments from slain enemies for it to be credited to your TP gauge.

In addition to receiving TP from killing enemies, there will be instances where TP can be found on the battlefield. Simply make any of your characters walk over them to fill up a portion of your TP gauge.
