Scroll of Flash

WHM Lv.45 / PLD Lv.37 / RUN Lv.45

Teaches the white magic Flash.
Temporarily blinds an enemy, greatly lowers its accuracy.

• Severely reduces accuracy (compared to Blind) with the effect weakening over time until it wears off.
• Normal mobs have the ability to resist Flash, although this is extremely rare.
• Duration is subject to resists and partial-resists, though can last up to 12 seconds if completely unresisted.
• Stacks with Blind.
• Does not overwrite itself. If the target is already flashed it will fail to take effect.
• Acquires a significant amount of Volatile and Cumulative Enmity. Produces 180 CE and 1280 VE in era. Testing/verification needed to determine if any era+ changes made.
• Automatons with a Flashbulb equipped can use a non-magic version of Flash and, therefore, can not be reflected or absorbed by shadows.
• This status effect cannot be removed by Blindna, but can be removed by Erase.
• This status effect cannot be removed by Blindna, but can be removed by Erase, Esuna or Healing Waltz.
