List of Final Fantasy X Auto Abilities
Talk31this wiki

Added by Kimlasca warriorAuto Abilities are special abilities that appear in Final Fantasy X. Unlike Command Abilities, Auto Abilities automatically take effect and can be assigned to weapons and armor, similar to Support Abilities in previous games.
All pieces of equipment can have a maximum of one to four Auto Abilities. Most equipment have Auto Abilities already assigned to them when acquired, however, once the player reaches Guadosalam, they are able to customize Auto Abilities onto equipment as long as they have the required number of items and as long as the equipment has at least one empty slot. Once an Auto Ability is added to a piece of equipment, it cannot be removed.
On occasion, customizing equipment may change the name and appearance of that equipment. For example, adding the Firestrike Auto Ability to the Variable Steel will change its name to Flametongue.
Below is the list of Auto Abilities that can be customized to weapons and armor.
