Roddy using Stone in Bravely Default II.
Stone (ストーン, Sutōn?) is an earth-elemental spell exclusive to Bravely Default II. It is the first version of earth-elemental Red Magic players gain access to. Stone and its upgraded versions, Stonera and Stonega, serve as the replacements for the series' recurring Quake spells.
It is the default Red Magic spell for the Red Mage job, being available at job level 1. The spell deals earth-elemental magic damage on a target or all targets on the field. When combined with the Nuisance specialty passive, it has a chance of inflicting the Slow and Stop statuses on the damaged target. It costs 15 MP to cast.
In addition, when Roddy joins the party as a companion during chapter 2, he will occasionally cast Stone on an individual enemy, especially one susceptible to earth damage.
Etymology[]
The Stone series of spells originate from the Final Fantasy series of games. The spells were first introduced in Final Fantasy XI as series of Black Magic spells, serving as one of the game's methods of inflicting magic earth-elemental damage. Its Ancient Magic upgrade was the series traditional Quake spell, a trait carried over into Bravely Default II.
