— In-game description

Aetherial Spark is an action unlocked at level 1. It is available for Blue Mage.

Flavor Text

This spell, learned from the dhruva, summons forth a cluster of luminous projectiles which inflict multiple pinpoint wounds to all in their path. The jagged edges of these tiny lacerations bleed profusely, weakening the target and causing considerable pain.

Tips

Acquisition Tips

  • Recommended to learn from the Salt Dhruva overworld enemies.

Other Tips

  • Because they all inflict the same debuff, Bleeding, the damage over time part of this spell does not stack with Aetherial Spark Aetherial Spark or Nightbloom Nightbloom.
    • Nightbloom Nightbloom is the strongest of the three. It totals 1,900 potency (or 1,700 to secondary targets).
    • Song of Torment Song of Torment is a single-target spell, totaling 825 potency with Bristle Bristle (or 550 potency without it).
    • Aetherial Spark Aetherial Spark is an AoE, totaling 450 potency per target with Bristle Bristle (or 300 potency per target without it).
    • Generally speaking: Apply Nightbloom Nightbloom if it's available. When its damage-over-time finishes, use Bristle Bristle and either Song of Torment Song of Torment on 1 target, or Aetherial Spark Aetherial Spark on 2+ targets, as filler until Nightbloom is available again..
