Shining Force II

The spells are the same as the ones in Shining Force CD, with the exception of the levels of Detox, along with the introduction of sorcerer spells.

Shining Force III

• Unlike past Shining games, close to every character that learns a spell will also learn all of its levels, with some odd exceptions and therefore there are no distinctions between levels like in the last lists. The exceptions are: Noon (Spark LV1-2), Arthur (Blaze LV1-3, Freeze LV1-3, Spark LV1-3) and Primula (Heal LV1-2).
• Synbios and Medion learn Inferno only when promoted to their third class, therefore only in scenario III. Arthur only upgrades his magic spells to LV3 on his third class as well. All other characters have a chance to learn everything in their second class, therefore in their respective scenarios.
• Inferno can be hacked into scenario I and II (the english description comes from I) though it has different sprite and values. Charm is also availble for hacking in Scenario I and it also has a different sprite. Enemy spells can also be hacked into the third scenario. Refer to the corresponding spell section above for more details.
