Loom
“Move quickly to the specified location.
Cannot be executed while bound.— In-game description
Loom is an action unlocked at level 1. It is available for Blue Mage.
Flavor Text
To utilize this simple teleportation magic, casters must create an aetherial current upon which to travel between their location and the desired position. Though this is only effective over short distances, it is nevertheless an invaluable tool in the event that one needs to beat a hasty retreat.
| Enemy | Level | Location |
|---|---|---|
| Baalzephon | 50 | |
| Dantalion | 50 | |
| Flame Sergeant Dalvag | 50 | Northern Thanalan |
Tips
Acquisition Tips
- This action is not casted from its related enemies; it is instantly used.
- Enemies who use Loom will immediately use it when engaged at range. This action will never be used when in very close proximity.
- If the player chooses to learn Loom from Baalzephon from The Lost City of Amdapor, extra caution should be exercised with the first boss, the Decaying Gourmand, who has a Devour mechanic that will trap and kill the player if playing solo.
- This can be avoided with high burst damage to kill the boss quickly, or with instant-death spells such as Doom, as the boss is vulnerable to them.
- Inflicting a damage-over-time effect can also potentially kill the boss after the player has been devoured.
- This boss is immune to Deep Freeze and Stun, and thus cannot be used to prevent Devour.
Other Tips
- Loom is useful for a few Masked Carnivale fights when dodging wide AoE attacks, especially when the player is inflicted by Heavy. Some examples include Blobs in the Woods and Dirty Rotten Azulmagia.
