Auto-Phoenix (オートフェニックス, Ōto Fenikkusu?) is a recurring ability in the Final Fantasy series that automatically uses a Phoenix Down to revive when a character is KO'd.

Appearances[]

Final Fantasy X[]

Auto-Phoenix is an armor auto-ability that requires twenty Mega Phoenixes to customize. The ability automatically has the user use a Phoenix Down from the player's inventory after a party member is Knocked Out to immediately revive them.

If two or three party members have Auto-Phoenix, the same priority system used when automatically sorting equipment will determine who uses a Phoenix Down, with Tidus having the highest priority, followed by Yuna, Auron, Kimahri, Wakka, Lulu, and Rikku. This also determines whether Auto-Phoenix can revive two party members at once in the event they are KO'd on the same turn; if the party member flagged as KO'd first was assigned to be revived by the other party member, it will not take effect, though the Phoenix Down will still be removed from the inventory.

World of Final Fantasy[]

Auto-Phoenix is a passive ability that automatically expends a phoenix down when an ally is KO'd. It can be used by Diva Serafie, Princess Goblin, and Princess Goblin★.

Non-Final Fantasy appearances[]

Bravely Default[]

Auto-Phoenix is the job level 11 ability for the Salve-Maker ability. It automatically uses a phoenix feather if an ally is in the K.O. state during the last command in the user's turn. This will not occur if the user does not have a phoenix feather. It will not activate during Bravely Second. It costs 2 slots to equip.

Etymology[]

In Greek mythology, a phoenix or phenix (Greek: φοῖνιξ phoinix; Latin: phoenix, phœnix, fenix) is a long-lived bird that is cyclically regenerated or reborn. Associated with the sun, a phoenix obtains new life by arising from the ashes of its predecessor. According to some sources, the phoenix dies in a show of flames and combustion, although there are other sources that claim that the legendary bird dies and simply decomposes before being born again. According to some texts, the phoenix could live over 1,400 years before rebirth.
