FFVIII Reflect

Reflect in Final Fantasy VIII.

Mirror of light, reflect magical spite.

Reflect (リフレク, Rifureku?), sometimes translated as Wall (not to be confused with the recurring Wall spell), is a spell that bestows the Reflect status. It appears in various games in the Final Fantasy series. Its multi-target upgrade is Reflectga.

Magic directed at a target with Reflect will bounce to the opposite party, typically at the caster unless redirected because it was a final attack or cast by a member of the same party. Most spells, even recovery spells, can be reflected. However, some spells can pierce the effect, and reflected spells may be weaker than when normally cast. The summon Carbuncle can cast Reflect on the party. Normally spells can only be reflected once, allowing reflect to be defeated by intentionally reflecting a healing spell off an opponent, or a damaging spell off an ally. Enemies and allies that can cast reflect may be aware of this interaction. A spell that targets all of a party can often be reflected multiple times in one casting.
