Time is an element in Final Fantasy. Time is a rare element only used by high-level spells. While it is present in all releases, Time is not named in-game prior to the Dawn of Souls release. No enemies are weak against Time, but only bosses resist it, making Stop and Warp extremely effective tools for Black Wizards.
Content in italics is exclusive to the Dawn of Souls and/or 20th Anniversary releases.
