Lightning is a physical ability for Lightning in Lightning Returns: Final Fantasy XIII. It is a physical oriented version of the Thundaga spell exclusive to the Blue Mage garb. It deals heavy physical lightning-elemental damage to multiple foes in a large radius.

Obtained[]

Lightning Lv. 3 is automatically obtained as the locked ability for the Blue Mage garb, which can be obtained from the "Free Will" quest in Yusnaan.

Mechanics[]

When used, Lightning rushes to the enemy, unleashing multiple thunderbolts on it and surrounding foes, dealing eight heavy lightning-elemental physical attacks to the targets. If the opponent is susceptible to lightning-elemental attacks, or is afflicted with the Curse and Imperil statuses, they will be launched into the air.

The ability's damage depends on Lightning's current physical attack power. It costs 40 ATB to perform and can be used while airborne.
