Does the Magic stat affect all magic or only offensive spells?
From "The Ultimate Strategy Guide" FAQ:
Magic (Mag):
Magic is used to power up the magic that a character can use. This includes summons as well as regular magic and enemy skills. The higher your Mag, the higher damage you'll hit with magic.
I can't tell if it affects healing and protection too, or just offensive spells.
Does the Magic stat affect all magic? Or just offensive spells?
Solution 1:
Yes, Magic affects healing. The formula to calculate how much you heal with Cure is:
6 * (Magic + Level) + 22 * Power
So the higher the Magic stat, the more HP that character will heal with a given Cure spell.
