Battle[edit | edit source]
Movers are exceptionally dangerous when all three are present, as they can align into a formation that triggers the lethal Delta Attack spell. Destroying at least one of the Movers will eliminate this threat.
For some reason, Movers can't die from a White Magic spell, an item or a Mug: their AI specifically prevents it by setting their HP to 1 (or one more than their death threshold to be accurate). Two movers can't die together (they can all die together, but not just two of them). Using a spell that should kill exactly two Movers, will kill only one, while the other's HP is set to the threshold. Any attack after that will kill it, even a 0-damage Minus Strike.
Spells countered with Return Magic also can't kill Movers unless they die together, because the death of one Mover is actually a counter, and it is not possible to counter a counter.
