Spirit Surge

Notes/Description

• Spirit Surge is a Dragoon's Two Hour Ability.

• Prior to the 12/13/2005 version update, Call Wyvern was the Dragoon 2-Hour. It has since become a standard Dragoon Job Ability on a 20-minute recast timer.

• The Dragoon must have the Wyvern out in order to use Spirit Surge.

• The Dragoon's Wyvern is absorbed and automatically "dismissed" upon use of Spirit Surge. It cannot be resummoned until the Spirit Surge effect wears off.

• While this ability is in effect, Jump and High Jump gain these additional effects:
  • Jump temporarily weakens an enemy’s defense.
  • High Jump causes an enemy’s TP to be reduced by a percentage proportionate to the amount of damage inflicted.
  • Super Jump causes the closest party member behind the Dragoon (from the point of view of the monster) to have his or her enmity reduced by half.
  • There is a large Accuracy boost. This was thought to be 100% but has since been disproved. See discussion.
• The recast time for the Jump, High Jump, and Super Jump job abilities will be immediately reset upon use of Spirit Surge.

• Upon use, the Dragoon's maximum HP is increased by roughly 15%. Following that, the Dragoon's current HP is healed by an amount equivalent to the Wyvern's current HP.
• The Wyvern's current TP is also added to the Dragoon's. With proper timing, a self-Skillchain may be performed.
• The Dragoon gains a large STR boost. (= 1 + level / 5)
• The Dragoon gains a large Accuracy boost.
• The Dragoon gains a 25% Haste boost. It is counted toward the "Haste gained from magic" cap (43.75%).
• The Wyvern's per-hit damage is added onto the Dragoon's individual attacks.
