The full list of Technicks is included below. The Standard List is the order that the Technicks are listed in the game. The second list puts them in Alphabetical order.
- Effects:
- Steal an item from a Foe that has an item. You cannot steal any further items after an item has been stolen.
- Tips:
- You should make an effort to Steal from any and all enemies. Stealing is a good way to obtain Loot and earn gil by selling it. Many enemies have items that you will need to steal in order to craft some of the strongest weapons and armor in the game.
- License Points:
- 20
- Where to find it:
- You begin the game with this Technick and do not have to obtain it.
The Master Thief Trophy is obtained when you used the Steal Technick 50 times and successfully obtain items from your target. This means that you will need to use the Steal command a lot more than 50 times.
- Effects:
- Allows a character to hit a flying foe with a melee weapon from a distance.
- Tips:
- This Technick is incredibly helpful for giving melee classes, such as the Knight, Foebreaker and Hunter, a means to attack flying enemies without having to switch to a ranged weapon, using Magicks or switching to another party member that can use Magicks.

In a treasure chest located in the Special Charter Shaft area of the Henne Mines. It has a very rare chance of appearing and will quite often take quite a number of attempts to obtain as it will only appear 10% of the time.
The best strategy for obtaining this Technick (which is probably the most difficult and frustrating one to obtain) is to check the area for the treasure chest and then run back out of the zone to the Phase 2 Shaft area. From there, rezone back in and travel back to where the treasure chest spawns.
Eventually the monsters will stop spawning and you will have a clear route to the chest to make additional runs.
Alternatively, travel to the Special Charter Dig area if you have already defeated Zodiark.
- Effects:
- Lowers the Defense of the target to 90% of their base Defense.
- Tips:
- Very few enemies are immune to this spell and it can often be used quite a few number of times (but not infinitely). This is one of the most useful Technicks in the game and should be used on all bosses and high level Marks as it greatly increases the amount of damage that regular attacks do.
