Final Fantasy VEdit
Almagest is an extraordinarily powerful Holy-elemental spell that strikes all party members and it inflicts Sap. Exdeath and the superbosses Enuo and Neo Shinryu have access to this ability, as well as the enemy Hades. If Shield Dragon, Vilia, or Hades is released, it will cast Almagest.
Final Fantasy TacticsEdit
Almagest damages all units within a two-square radius emanating from the point of casting, does damage equal to user's max HP to current HP. Only the monsters Behemoth and Ultima Demon have access to the spell, though the former can be recruited into the party via an Orator. This effectively puts the power of Almagest in the player's hand.
Dissidia Final FantasyEdit

- —Exdeath
Almagest is one of Exdeath's HP attacks. He surrounds himself in a field of dark energy and explodes. Exdeath learns the ground version of the attack at Level 8 and the aerial version at Level 30. The attack costs 40 CP to equip and 300 AP to master. He also uses an upgraded version of the attack called Neo Almagest with a successful EX Burst, in which he casts the opponent into the Void and seals the entrance between his hands.
Dissidia 012 Final FantasyEdit
Almagest returns as one of Exdeath's HP attacks, now costing 30 CP to equip and 130 AP to master.
