— In-game description

Ink Jet is an action unlocked at level 1. It is available for Blue Mage.

Flavor Text

Ink Jet can be considered a more advanced form of Water Cannon─fitting, as both come courtesy of the kraken. The spell infuses aetherially concentrated water with whatever impure substances are most readily available to create and expel a synthetic “ink,” blinding opponents.

Acquisition

Duties

• Kraken from level 50 Dungeon Sastasha (Hard)

Tips

Acquisition Tips

• Kraken's attack is called Ink Blast and is an AoE attack. Simply dodge them and focus on killing the main body and Kraken arms, not the tentacles.

Other Tips

• This spell is mostly useless, although it is used in the Masked Carnivale stage On a Clear Day You Can Smell Forever to dodge an otherwise nearly-unavoidable gaze attack.
