[edit] Final Fantasy V

Aqua Breath, also known as Aqua Rake, is a Blue Magic spell that deals non-elemental damage to all enemies. It also deals 8x damage to Desert creatures, making it an extremely lethal weapon against such enemies. It is so powerful that it can kill Sandworm in one single hit, and Land Crawlers in three. A Blue Mage may learn Aqua Breath from the Dhorme Chimera, Manticore, Leviathan, Bahamut, Azulmagia, Water Crystal, Enuo, Gogo, and Aquagel enemies.

Aqua Breath is non-elemental in this game, rather than Water-elemental.

[edit] Final Fantasy VI

Strago has Aqua Breath, also known as Aqua Rake, as one of his initial Lores. In this game, it also deals Wind-elemental damage. A separate Lore called Cleansweep, learned from enemies such as the Enuo, deals pure Water-elemental damage.

[edit] Final Fantasy VII

Aqualung is an Enemy Skill learned from the boss Jenova∙LIFE, and the enemies Harpy and Serpent. It deals massive Water-elemental damage to all opponents. The MP cost is 34. If the entire party is in the Reflect status and Aqualung is used against them, the spell will hit back three times. This, along with the fact that few enemies have Water resistance, makes this Enemy Skill very effective against bosses and strong enemies.

[edit] Final Fantasy VIII

Quistis can learn Aqua Breath by using Water Crystal item. Water Crystals can be Mugged from Fastitocalon. One Water Crystal can be refined from one Fastitocalon card, or from five Fastitocalon-F cards, using Quezacotl's Card Mod ability. Its magic power differs from Crisis Level:

  • Crisis Level 1: 50
  • Crisis Level 2: 70
  • Crisis Level 3: 80
  • Crisis Level 4: 100

[edit] Final Fantasy IX
