Notes

• May miss, even though it is not a physical Blue Magic spell.
• Damage is reduced by Phalanx and -physical damage taken equipment.
• 1000 Needles is divided equally among all party members within the area of effect, so it is advised to attempt to learn this spell with a partner or pet. A Summoner's pet Carbuncle (possibly all avatars) receives 50% reduction to the damage, that is, as BLU/SMN with Carbuncle out, you will receive 500 points of dmg and Carbuncle will only receive 250.
