Dyne (command)

Dyne (裏技) is Zidane's Trance skill in Final Fantasy IX. Each Dyne corresponds to one of his Skills, and will be available for use during Trance only when Zidane can use the corresponding Skill. All Dynes are physical attacks that target either one or all targets.

Dissidia Final Fantasy
In Dissidia Final Fantasy, all of Zidane's HP and Bravery attacks are based on his Dyne techniques, though some function and appear differently than they did in Final Fantasy IX—Grand Lethal, for example, has Zidane charging inside a series of energy beams, rather than releasing them from his body and Shift Break has an addition of lightning columns, mostly in order to contain the opponent so the final blast of water hits.

Dissidia 012 Final Fantasy
All Dyne abilities from the first Dissidia return for Dissidia 012 with unchanged effects.

Final Fantasy Brigade
Shift Break and Grand Lethal are available to Zidane in Final Fantasy Brigade.

Etymology
The Dyne is a somewhat obsolete unit to measure forces. It is the force required to accelerate a mass of one gram at a rate of one centimeter per second, which in SI-derived units is exactly 1·0×10-5 Newtons (10&mu;N).
