Hits targets with levels that are multiples of 4.

Description

Level 4 Graviga, also known as L4 Qrtr, is a Blue Magic spell in Final Fantasy V. It casts the spell Graviga on all non-heavy targets whose level is a multiple of 4 at the cost of 9 MP. Graviga deals fractional damage to reduce an enemy's HP to 1/8th. The spell normally costs 9 MP and only applies to one target, meaning Level 4 Graviga is much more MP- and turn-efficient.

Level Graviga can also be used by catching and releasing a Level Tricker.

Obtained[]

The learner must be hit by Level 4 Graviga to learn the ability, meaning their level must be divisible by 4.

The earliest Level 4 Graviga can be learned is from Ghidra fought in the final area of Ronka Ruins before talking to King Tycoon. It can also be learned from Level Tricker, Level Checker, Azulmagia, and Executor.

Level 4 Graviga is not missable even if the player got to level 97–99 without learning it yet; it will still be possible to manipulate levels with Dark Spark and Mix (Samson's Might or Dragon Power). However, getting to maximum high level in Final Fantasy V takes a lot of grinding.

Use[]

Level 4 Graviga is significantly more turn- and MP-efficient than the typical Graviga spell, which can already be effective. If the player is aware that the enemy's levels are divisible by 4, Level 4 Graviga can wipe out the HP of many enemies, and make the fight significantly quicker. Libra or Scan can be used to confirm an enemy's level. Dark Spark can be used to manipulate enemy levels.

Susceptible enemies

• Adamantoise (boss)
• Nereid (boss)

Enemies that are susceptible but the player cannot use Level 4 Graviga against them in a normal playthrough:

• Byblos is LV24 and unlike most bosses, is not a Heavy-type; however, it is fought before Level 4 Graviga is available.
• Magissa is LV8 and not Heavy-type, but is fought before Level 4 Graviga is available.
• Skull Eater is a LV32 enemy, but only has 1 HP, and thus Level 4 Graviga cannot do any damage.
• LV24 Enchanted Fan, Stone Mask, Ronkan Knight, and Lamia are only fought in the Ronka Ruins before Level 4 Graviga is available.
• Berserker, Iron Muscles, and Dueling Knight are fought in the right side of Fork Tower where magic-use is forbidden.
