Category:Enhancing Magic
From FFXIclopedia, the free Final Fantasy XI encyclopedia
Enhancing Magic governs all magic that enhances the user and sometimes his party. Effects range from buffs such as Protect (physical defence up), Shell (magic defence up) and Haste (speed up attacks and spell recasting time) to transportation spells such as Warp (return you to your home point) and the white mage teleport spells.
While no job has a very high rating in Enhancing Magic skill, Red Mage has the highest. Although some Enhancing spells are not affected by the caster's skill, e.g. Haste, Warp (they give you the effect or transport you, there's no degree of success), others such as the various enspells and Stoneskin grow more powerful with increasing skill. Higher skill in Enhancing Magic also, as with skill in any magic discipline, helps to prevent spells governed by it from being interrupted while being cast.
