Flavor Text

No longer merely the domain of savage beasts, this technique, when reproduced by the blue mage, involves not the devouring of rent flesh, but rather heals and invigorates its caster through the absorption of aether.

Acquisition Tips

  • A party member is absolutely required if attempting to acquire it from The Decaying Gourmand. If you get eaten, you will need an ally to spit you back out.
  • This spell can be obtained solo from The Decaying Gourmand. This can be achieved by reducing it to low HP, putting a Damage Over Time effect on it, then being Devoured. So long as it gets the spell off, then dies, you can learn it.

Other Tips

  • Highly recommended when mimicking Tank with Aetherial Mimicry and fighting an especially strong enemy, such as a boss.
