The game skips over this, but some units have access to magic. Magic is split into offensive and defensive magic, like Fei's Thunderbolt and Lilebette's Heal. Magic can provide some additional damage, but try to only use magic if you can hit the enemy's weakness.

Defensive magic can help turn the tide if your party is taking a beating. Healing magic can cure wounded units and help them get right back into the fight, and there are also spells that can cure negative conditions.

Magic is very useful, but remember that your MP is limited so cast wisely. You can learn new magic through leveling up and by the use of Arks.
