Enthunder is an Enhancing Magic white magic spell. When under the effect of Enthunder, the user will deal slight Lightning magic damage following each melee attack. Ordinary melee attacks cannot have a specific element, and En-Spells do not change this.

For example, the player attacks the Eft for 30 damage, the Eft takes 12additional lightning damage.

Final Fantasy XIIIEdit

Add lightning attribute to target's COM, RAV, SEN, or SAB attacks.

—Description

Enthunder is a Synergist spell that can be learned by Sazh (stage 4), Lightning (stage 7), and Hope (stage 7).

It adds the Lightning elemental property to physical attacks, and is thus particularly valuable against enemies that are weak to the element but strong against magical attacks.

When cast on Commandos, who get a bonus to physical damage, it is superior to the Sparkstrike used by Ravagers, if the time taken to cast it does not outweigh that consideration, such as in short battles.

Ravager party members with Enspell will do additional damage to all enemies within a short radius, similar to Blitz, Thundara, etc, when they perform the corresponding element of Strike.
