Description

Blk Magic (黒魔法, Kuro Mahō?, lit. Black Magic) is one of the four main commands in Final Fantasy X. Its abilities inflict magical damage at the expense of MP (except Osmose, which gains MP).

Mechanics[]

Most Blk Magic abilities are found in Lulu's section of the Sphere Grid, with only three exceptions. The two Blk Magic abilities found on Wakka's section, Drain and Osmose, drain stats from the target. The ultimate Blk Magic, Ultima, is found on Kimahri's section of the Sphere Grid. Most Blk Magic abilities are Rank 3 abilities, but the abilities in Wakka's section are Rank 2, while the two non-elemental spells are of considerably higher Ranks.

The Blk Magic Lulu has learned are used during her Overdrive, Fury. Blk Magic abilities can be Doublecast, unlike their Wht Mag counterparts. Blk Mag Spheres can be used to access activated Blk Magic nodes on the Sphere Grid from anywhere on the grid.

The formula for determining how much damage a Magic spell will do is as follows:

Damage=Spell~Power\times ((Magic^{2}/6)+Spell~Power)/4
