Offensive Spells and Abilities Explained

Offensive Spells are Magical

Offensive spells are magic-based attacks that deal damage to enemies using elements like fire, ice, and lightning. They consume MP when cast and often target one or multiple enemies at once, depending on the spell.

Can't be Used While Fizzled

If the Hero is inflicted by Fizzled, it can't use spells until the effect expires.

Abilities are Physical

Offensive abilities are non-magical attacks that rely on weapon mastery or physical strength to deal damage. They also consume MP like spells and share the same MP pool.

Is Not Affected by Fizzled

Unlike Spells, Abilities are not affected by Fizzled, meaning the Hero can still use abilities even while inflicted by the effect.
