The Green Magicks is skillset in Final Fantasy XII differs compared to the later Zodiac releases. All characters can learn Green Magick by buying the appropriate license and the spell from a magick shop or a traveling merchant. Additionally, some spells were re-classified in later versions.

Mechanics[]

The success rate of negative status spells is unaffected by the target's magick evasion.

[1]

If the target has Shell, the success rate is halved. The accuracy underflow bug is a glitch in some versions of Final Fantasy XII where a low level character with extremely low Magick attempts to use a status move on a target with very high Vitality, and the accuracy of the spell becomes less than zero. In this case the accuracy will underflow to 100%, allowing certain status spells to always succeed.

Etymology[]

Magick is an Early Modern English spelling for magic. Magick, in the context of Aleister Crowley's Thelema, is a term used to differentiate the occult from stage magic and is defined as "the Science and Art of causing Change to occur in conformity with Will", including both "mundane" acts of will as well as ritual magic.
