You can only learn the special abilities of monsters when blue mage is set as your main job. You have a chance to acquire blue magic when defeating a monster that has used a learnable special ability. It is not possible to learn blue magic that is too far above your level. You will not acquire blue magic if you are KO'd when a monster is defeated, or the defeated monster does not yield experience points.*Some monster abilities cannot be learned as blue magic.
*It is not necessary to be the target of a monster's special ability in order to learn blue magic.
Using Blue Magic
Unlike other magic spells, it is not possible to use blue magic as soon as it is acquired. First, the spells you wish to use must be “set.”
Using the system described below, you can freely assign the spells you wish to use.
1. Point Total/Maximum
Each blue magic spell is assigned a point value (blue magic points). The level of the blue mage determines the maximum number of points available for setting spells.
2. Maximum Number of Set Spells
The maximum number of blue magic spells that can be set at one time is also determined by the blue mage's level. This maximum number may decrease when the blue mage is under a level restriction and so the set numbers are assigned a color for easy reference.
