— In-game description

Force Field is an action unlocked at level 1. It is available for Blue Mage.

Flavor Text

Originally employed by Sephirot, the Fiend, to render foes vulnerable to attacks, this spell has been adapted for the mage's own protection. Due to the field's intrinsic instability, however, it cannot simultaneously grant physical and magical benefits, only one or the other.

Tips

Acquisition Tips

While uncommon (and strongly not recommended), it is possible to learn a Blue Totem spell directly from Sephirot in the extreme trial.

Other Tips

Due to its random nature, this spell is highly unreliable and generally considered to be useless.
