The following is a list of abilities available to the player in Final Fantasy Type-0. Abilities can be distinguished by spells, active abilities and passive abilities.

Spells[]

Fire-BOM-Type-0-HD

Machina uses Fire BOM.

Spells allow the user to cast magic while consuming MP. Offensive spells use predominant elemental damage and occur in different forms and defensive spells grant the user and their allies increased survivability.

Each character has four stats associated with spells: Fire Magic, Lightning Magic, Ice Magic and Defense Magic. The higher a magic-stat is, the more damage is dealt by corresponding spells. Unique spells combine power from all magic stats. In order to use spells, the character has to fulfill a certain condition—called "Prereq"—which demands one or several stats to be at a given amount. If not fulfilled, the character is unable to equip and thereby use the respective spell (or charge). Surpassing higher prerequisites allow specific spells to be charged by holding down the magic button, increasing their effectiveness. Charging a spell can be canceled by pressing L1/LB.

Each character is limited to equip only one spell unless they unlocked the ability "Twinspell". Every character can also learn "Quick Draw", which allows them to instantly cast a fully charged elemental spell after performing a certain attack.

Behind the scenes[]

A possible explanation for the lack of a Thunder RF-II spell is provided in the Altocrystarium under the description for Thunder RF, which states that the Dominion deemed the spell almost completely obsolete in comparison to Thunder SHG (the dominant SHG spell, along with Fire RF being the dominant RF spell). Thunder SHG-II also functions similar to a RF-II spell, rather than a SHG spell.
