FFXV Magic Spell Crafting Combinations

Crafting Spell Combinations guide shows the list of created spells, and ingredients needed for their crafting. The magic spells provide a vast variety of different effects. These effects depend on the elemental energy and catalysts invested in its creation. Different elemental energies and catalysts creates different effects. They are not entirely unnecessary. Some of them multiply the effectiveness of the base spell, some add a different kind of magic, while others can even heal. Check out the guide below to find the list of the ingredients and newly crafted spells we’ve found so far.

Note: If you are not entirely sure how the spells work, you can use our Elemancy & Magic System Guide to make it easier.

Elemental Energy and Crafting Ingredients

To craft the spell you’ll need a single elemental energy. These elements can be gathered from the nodes found all around the map. Noctis is the only one that can extract them manually from the nodes. There are also elemental absorbing weapons that can provide small amounts of elemental energy gains during combat. It is quite possible that Gladiolus can also draw some of them from the surroundings using his survival skill, but we can’t confirm this yet.

Unlike elemental energy, to collect the ingredients you’ll have to do a bit more fighting. This is where you can find the most of the ingredients, but it is not the only way. More of them can be found at the vendors. This concerns specifically consumable items. Things like potions, elixirs, phoenix down can all be bought from the vendors. However, the ingredients, as well as the consumables, can be found in the open. On the ground, a bench, in some darker corner and so on.

Magic Spell Crafting Recipe Combinations

In order to create the dominant, let’s say, fire spell, you don’t have to only put fire elemental energy. You can add lighting and ice to the recipe. But in the end, the amount of Fire energy must be dominant over the others. You need to have more Fire energy in the spell than Lighting or Ice to make it a fire spell.

There are also recipe combinations of two effects, let’s say blizzard and thunder. It happens once you combine Ice and Lighting with an elixir. The spell will explode as a Blizzard, and then once more as a Blizzard and Thunder.
