— In-game description

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

Flavor Text

A magical imitation of warmachina technology, this technique allows the user to fire a barrage of aetherial missiles. When efficacious─which, bear in mind, is not guaranteed─it sends a shock through the foe that appears to resonate more the greater their vitality.

Acquisition

Duties

Enkidu from level 50 Trial Battle in the Big Keep
Guardian from level 70 Raid Sigmascape V3.0

Tips

Acquisition Tips

Available during the first part of the trial (defeating Enkidu).
Enkidu casts Missile during the Chicken debuff cast by Gilgamesh.
Gilgamesh casts Chicken once Enkidu reaches 50%, and once more at 40%, providing that the Minimise debuff has been cleansed.
Gilgamesh will not cast Chicken if Enkidu is reduced below 30% HP before the first cast occurs.
Cleanse the minimise debuffs ASAP, reduce Enkidu to between 40% and 50% HP, and then wait until Chicken/Missile are cast.
Guardian puts a red Prey marker on a player and fires a Missile at them that leaves a Burns debuff.

Other Tips

Missile works on trash (aka, regular) mobs and bosses not immune to instant death abilities.
If a boss is immune to instant death, it is also immune to Missile, Doom and Tail Screw.
