Description for Double

Template:Sideicon Triple is a magic spell available to the party, serving as an upgraded version to the Double spell. It inflicts the status effect of the same name on a single party member, allowing them to cast spells three times at once, at the cost of expending three spells from their stock. Similar to Double, Triple has no time limit and lasts till the end of the battle once inflicted.

Triple is one of the rarest spells and can only be drawn from bosses, a few draw points and the Islands of Heaven/Hell. It is one of the most powerful junctioning spells, second only to Ultima. The Quistis and Irvine cards can be converted into Samantha Souls and Rocket Engines, respectively, and then into Triple spells; these cards, along with any other unique card other than PuPu can be won back from the 'CC' Card Club group during endgame if the player finishes their sidequest.

Casting Triple in battle increases compatibility with Cerberus by 2 and with Carbuncle by 1, but lowers compatibility with Eden by 0.2.
