Occult Acumen
Job Trait Overview
- Game Description: Grants bonus TP when dealing damage with elemental or dark magic.
- Job Traits are always active.
- Further Notes:
- Converts a percentage of MP spent on a direct-damage Elemental Magic or Dark Magic spell to TP. For example, Bio will trigger Occult Acumen, while Rasp will not.
- Abilities and traits which affect the amount of MP spent on a spell will not affect the TP gained.
- Amount of TP gained is affected by Store TP.
- Enhances Occult Acumen gear acts as if multiplying the spell's base MP cost, rather than additional Store TP.
- Like physical attacks, no TP is gained if the spell deals zero damage.
