I call out to the skies and tremble as the brilliance of a thousand bolts blinds mine enemies and tears their flesh asunder.
Activation quote.
Hallowed Bolt is used by both Agrias and The Thunder God's Ephemeral Knights in The Orbonne Monastery. In both boss fights, it targets a player for either a donut AoE centered around that player, then a circular AoE centered on that same spot, or vice versa. In The Thunder God's case, it will also be followed by a stacking mechanic wherein players share and therefore reduce the damage it deals. Players will suffer a short Magic Vulnerability Up debuff, making it impossible for any players with this status to take two Hallowed Bolts simultaneously and survive.
Final Fantasy Tactics[]
