hey, one way to be sure, is to try it out!
go on gamefaqs.com
anything else is moot really...
Cecil's Cover ability prompts you to select one of the characters in battle. The selected character will be covered by Cecil throughout the battle, even if they aren't at critical health. When in Cover mode, you can make Cecil stop covering a character if you select the 'Off' command which appears in place of the Cover command when in Cover mode.
And, which spells specifically are you confused about?
ummm
libra
sight
silence
berserk
teleport
protect
hastel
shell
reflect
dispel
blink
esuna
slow
levitan
meteo
mini
piggy
bio
and thats all for now
sight -opens the Map
silence- Causes mute, which prevents the casting of magic
teleport- takes you out of the dungeon
protect- raises defense
reflect- reflects magic on the enemy (This includes white magic)
blink- makes you difficult to hit with physical attacks
esuna- cures status problems
meteo- does a hell of alot of damage :D
mini- inflicts mini status
piggy- inflicts pig status
bio- does poison damage
That's the ones I remember, though feel free to correct me if I'm wrong.
thank you all so far
also, what does endure mean for yang:confused:
Libra
Scans the target's HP, weaknesses, etc.
Sight
Displays a minimap! It isn't that useful though, unless you get lost somehow.
Silence
Prevents the target from casting spells with the Mute status.
Berserk
Sends the target into an uncontrollable rage. The target can only attack uncontrollably in the Berserk status.
Teleport
Teleports the party out of dungeons and other areas. A nice alternative to walking out of a dungeon. :P
Protect
Sets up a protective barrier on a target. Increases physical attack resistance.
Haste
Speeds up time for one target. With the Haste status, you recieve more turns faster than normal.
Shell
The magical version of Protect. With the Shell status, resistance to magical attacks is increased.
Reflect
Sets up a reflective magic barrier. All spells cast at targets with the Reflect status are bounced back at thier casters.
Dispel
This spell rids a target of positive status effects (like Protect, Shell, Haste, and so on).
Blink
Bolsters a target's evasion. Combine it with Shell and Protect for maximum defense.
Esuna
Cures negative status effects like Poison, Confusion, and Paralysis.
Slow
The opposite of Haste. Targets inflicted with the Slow status recieve fewer turns at a slower rate.
Levitan
Summons the King of Summoned Beasts, Leviathan. Tsunami deals massive water-based damage to all foes.
Meteo
The ultimate Black Magic spell. A very powerful Holy-elemental attack. However, it takes about five years to actually cast it. I recommend Flare or Bahamut for your offensive magic needs.
Mini
Shrinks the target. Targets with the Mini status have vastly reduced stats. Cure this as soon as possible. Shrunken targets can still cast magic, however.
Piggy
Turns the target into a pig. Unlike Mini, you can't cast spells while in Pig form. And you don't really want to become a pig, do you?
Bio
Powerful Black Magic spell. Deals poison damage, and gradually drains the target's HP over time.
Yang's Endure ability acts like the Protect spell, it increases his own defense.
There you are! :) :cat:
I think it'd be more accurate to say that the spells cast on a target with Reflect on will be bounced back at the target's enemies. For example, if Tellah cast Bio on Cecil and he had the Reflect status, the spell would hit your enemies, not Tellah.Quote:

Reflect can't reflect meteo or reflected spells. For example, An enemy has Reflect status and the whole party has Reflect status. Enemy casts Flare on itself. Reflect Status bounces the magic at your party and goes through their Reflect status, damaging them.
Also in this game, bad statuses can be cured by casting the spell on the affected character. For example, if a character has Toad status, casting Toad on that character will cure the status. While under "Pig" or "Toad" status, the spell "Pig" and "Toad" are the only spells you can cast.
Is Exit called Teleport in the GBA/DS non SNES version?Quote:

Yes, although it's always been called Telepo in the Japanese version of the game. Close enough, though.Quote:

It's the cave in the North-Western corner of the Underground, if I remember correctly. It's one of those three caves down there.
i have no idea where that is, picture or directions?
Actually, the northwestern cave is the Sylvan cave where you can acquire the Sylph summon. (SPOILER)It's also the place you will find Yang later in the game.
The cave that leads to the Land of the Summoned Monsters is on a small island in the Underground. You'll need an airship to cross the lava to reach it.
Well, here's a picture. It's the cave called "Land of Monsters".Quote:

i just got the airship and cain told me to trade the earth spirit stone for rosa, and also, theres no lava anywhere, as far as i know...
Okay, well you have a while before you can get to the Land of the Phantom Beasts, so I wouldn't worry about it.
Coincidently, I'm right about where you are in my current game. :D
ok update on where i am now, i just found out gilbert was wounded in a castle, now where do i go? :confused: advice is much needed
thanks
Now you've got to go to the Dark Elf's lair. Walk north of the town you're in, and you should find a forest with a Black Chocobo. Ride it to the cave where the Dark Elf is (it's on an island, I think). Make sure you remove all metal equipment before you enter.
Or you could just run from everyone....When I first played the cave, I figured that you couldn't kill the enemies...I mean Cecil with a bow?? He's not an elf or gay...And I would just keep running until I killed the Dark Elf then show those meanies the taste of steel...
Tellah uses staves/robes, Yang uses fists/karate gi, You can equip Cid with the Wooden Hammer, and Cecil can use bows. It's really not too hard to make it through the Magnetic Cave.
Also, once you get the Fairy Claw for Yang, he can kill the ogres in one hit. It's an easy way to levelgrind if you can't beat Dark Elf.
