| ADDED EFFECT | GENERAL DESCRIPTION | NOTES |
|---|---|---|
| Quintcast (5 Chain) | Cast a spell up to five times. | The first spell is guaranteed. Each potential subsequent spell in the chain has a chance to succeed or fail (minimum success rate: 50%), according to the following formula: Success chance = 50 + (catalyst's effect level x amount of catalysts used). |
| Quadcast (4 Chain) | Cast a spell up to four times. | |
| Tricast (3 Chain) | Cast a spell up to three times. | |
| Dualcast (2 Chain) | Cast a spell up to two times. | |
| Venomcast (Poison) | Cast a spell with a chance to inflict Poison status on the target. | A status effect can be inflicted on the target (in addition to the spell's damage). The chance for this to succeed is the result of the following formula: Success chance = (catalyst's effect level) x (number of catalysts used). |
| Cursecast (Attack Down) | Cast a spell with a chance to inflict Mollified status on the target (reduces attack) | |
| Stopcast (Stop) | Cast a spell with a chance to inflict Stop status on the target. | |
| Killcast (Death) | Cast a spell with a chance to inflict Instant Death on the target. | |
| Healcast (Healing) | Cast a spell and heal the caster | The proportion of HP healed is the result of the following formula: Percentage healed = (catalyst's effect level) x (number of catalysts used). |
| Freecast (Free Magic) | Cast a spell with a chance not to consume the elementary energy it was crafted with. | The chance not to consume the energy is the result of the following formula: Chance = (catalyst's effect level) x (number of catalysts used) / 100. |
| Expericast (EXP Bonus) | Cast a spell and give an EXP bonus to the caster. | The amount of EXP received is the result of the following formula: Bonus EXP = (catalyst's effect level) x (number of catalysts used) x 100. |
| Failcast (Misfire) | Gambling effect: either the spell casting fails, or the spell is cast successfully and inflict significant damage. | The chance for the spell to fail is the result of the following formula: Fail chance = (catalyst's effect level) x (number of catalysts used) / 100. Unlike any added effect, this means that the more you reinforce the effect, the higher the chances that your spell will misfire. |
| Powercast (Compact) | Cast a spell of increased intensity (but with unchanged range) | The increased damage is already factored in the catalyst's power value. Powercast spells remain tier-1 spells even if their power exceeds the 100 threshold. |
| Blastcast (Backfire) | Cast a spell inflicting significant damage on both the target and the caster | The increased damage is already factored in the catalyst's power value. The caster's HP is reduced to 1. |
| Maxicast (Limit Break) | Cast the ultimate elemental spell | This effect is set by default @ level 99, even with the single catalyst. The damage dealt can break the usual limit of 9,999. |
| None | - | Some catalysts have no added effect, though many of these can still prove beneficial by adding power to a crafted spell or facilitating its duplication. |
