HyperDrive

Attack Type Magic

Bat.Pwr 118 (Ignores Mag.Def)

Target One Foe

Hit Rate Always Hits

Can be absorbed with Runic

Status Seizure

HyperDrive is an incredibly powerful single-target magic attack. It ignores both Mag.Def and MBlock%, and cannot be resisted in any other way. Adding insult to injury in an almost literal way, it also causes Seizure. This is the signature attack of Siegfried when you fight him in the Colosseum, and can be used by Kefka as well.
