Behind the scenes

Final Fantasy XIV (version 1.0)

Stone hotkey.

Stone appeared as an spell learned by Conjurers at rank 1. The ability inflicted earth-elemental damage to all enemies within an area of effect. After patch 1.20, the Conjurer class still retained the ability to use Stone and was their default spell. The ability now dealt earth-elemental damage to a single enemy and inflicted evasion down. In addition, Stone was also the Combo action for Stonera. Stone could be assigned to any Disciple of War or Disciple of Magic class.
