— In-game description

Protean Wave is an action unlocked at level 1. It is available for Blue Mage.

Flavor Text

This technique originates with the living liquid, which coalesces about a hydrate core that allows it to dispense its own fluid in a violent flood. The magically reproduced version, correctly applied, is equally effective in sweeping away even the bulkiest of foes.
