View source for MP

[[MP]], or magic points, are required to cast spells and use certain magical abilities. If the MP cost of a spell is greater than your remaining MP, you cannot cast that spell. MP slowly regenerates over time in and out of combat.

MP formerly varied based on [[Piety (Stat)|Piety]], much like [[HP]] does with [[Vitality]]. As of [[Patch 5.0]] ([[Shadowbringers]]), the MP cap for all levels was changed to 10,000, and MP costs for all actions became fixed values.

The following [[classes]] and [[jobs]] have actions that require MP:
* {{PLD}} [[Paladin]]
* {{DRK}} [[Dark Knight]]
* {{CNJ}} [[Conjurer]] / {{WHM}} [[White Mage]]
* {{SCH}} [[Scholar]]
* {{AST}} [[Astrologian]]
* {{SGE}} [[Sage]]
* {{THM}} [[Thaumaturge]] / {{BLM}} [[Black Mage]]
* {{ACN}} [[Arcanist]] / {{SMN}} [[Summoner]]
* {{RDM}} [[Red Mage]]
* {{BLU}} [[Blue Mage]]<noinclude>
