Flash (ability)

Flash is a spell from Final Fantasy XI. It is white magic and can be cast by Paladins and White Mages. Flash grants the status effect of blindness, though (if both spells are unresisted) for an extraordinarily short time, only 15 seconds max. It is used often because Flash creates a high amount of enmity for the user and so it helps a Paladin gain control of the enemy's attention being fought early. Flash is cast off of the divine magic skill.
