'''Synergist''' is a role in ''[[Final Fantasy XIII-2]]''. Its main function is buff allies and nullify debuffs. [[Serah Farron/Gameplay|Serah]] and [[Noel Kreiss/Gameplay|Noel]] only learn defensive enhancements and therefore have to rely on [[Paradigm Pack|monster Synergists]] to enhance the party's offensive capabilities. [[Lightning (Final Fantasy XIII)/Gameplay#Requiem of the Goddess|Lightning]] in the "[[Lightning's Story: Requiem of the Goddess]]" [[Final Fantasy XIII-2 downloadable content|DLC]] scenario has a role based on the Synergist called Conjurer.

Conjurer

RoTG mighty guard

Mighty Guard.

The Conjurer is exclusive to Lightning in the "Requiem of the Goddess" downloadable content scenario. The ATB charge rate is much slower than in other roles, but spells cast by the Conjurer bestow several status enhancements at the cost of removing the previous ones if they were bestowed by other abilities.

Ability ATB Effect Level
Mighty Guard 5 Removes all buffs and casts Protect, Shell, Veil, and Vigilance. 3

Behind the scenes

In contrast to Final Fantasy XIII, no playable units nor monster allies can learn Haste. The only way for players to obtain Haste status is to get a preemptive strike or equipment, like the Hermes Sandals. Another way of obtaining Haste is by reviving an ally using Phoenix Blood or to use a Feral Link that provides Haste, though those are few and far between. Lightning's Aura and War's Benediction are the only commands that can grant Haste, and only to her. The Bar-spells Synergists could learn in Final Fantasy XIII are not available in Final Fantasy XIII-2 in any form. The closest one could get would be resistance accessories or Sentinel's Element Guard.

-Ga versions of spells have been added since Final Fantasy XIII and they share similarities with the now removed -ra versions: Both the -ga and -ra tiers have significantly shorter durations than their regular versions, but the boost for Bravery, Protect, Faith, and Shell hasn't changed. Since the removal of the Water element, Enwater has disappeared and Enaero has been added.

Vigilance has had its effect partially changed since Final Fantasy XIII; it no longer boosts the affected character's chances of interrupting enemies. Instead, Vigilance now lowers Wound damage taken.

Etymology

A synergist is a substance, organ, or other agent that participates in an effect of synergy. Synergy is the creation of a whole that is greater than the simple sum of its parts. The term synergy comes from the Attic Greek word συνεργία synergia from synergos, συνεργός, meaning "working together".
