Job mechanics
Official Lodestone Job Guide (Always up-to-date)
Balance Gauge is Red Mage's Job Gauge.
Balance Gauge
Red Mages are unique in that they have a Balance Gauge that shows their accumulated White Mana and Black Mana.
You can obtain the two types of mana by using certain spells. Once enough of each has been acquired, Riposte will become Enchanted Riposte, Zwerchhau will become Enchanted Zwerchhau, and Redoublement will become Enchanted Redoublement.
Certain actions and effects will also be strengthened.
If the gap between black and white mana accumulation grows too large, the crystal at the top of the gauge will change color, and it will become more difficult to accumulate the lesser of the two.
Upon learning the trait Mana Stack, the Mana Stack Gauge will be displayed.
Maximum stacks of mana can be accumulated using Enchanted Riposte, Enchanted Zwerchhau, Enchanted Redoublement, and Enchanted Moulinet, then used to execute certain actions such as Verflare and Verholy (acquired at level 70).
Mana stacks are consumed when any magic is used.
