Introduced in 5.2, Blue Mages can learn the spell Aetherial Mimicry from the Corruption enemy found in the Ghrah Luminary boss fight in Pharos Sirius (Hard). Abilities cannot be copied, only magic (including songs, Ninjutsu and Blue Magic). They will cast the spell either onto the character who cast upon them or onto the member of the group with the greatest enmity. When fighting the Mimic enemies in Omega Ruins, Copycat is nullified.Ĭolibri may cast any spell cast upon them within the last 30 seconds. if a character copies Quick Hit or Quick Pockets, they will merely use a regular physical attack or an item, without getting their next turn faster, because the Copycat command doesn't have this "bonus". Copycat is thus not identical to the copied move, but is its own command e.g. Copied attacks are subject to Copycat user's weapon abilities, such as Magic Booster and Magic Plus % factors. Characters cannot mimic each others' Overdrives or Yuna's summoning.Ĭopycat takes MP to use, but can be made useful for mimicking actions that would otherwise take more MP to perform, such as Doublecasting Ultima or Death for getting rid of weaker enemies faster. It is located near the end of Rikku's section of the basic Sphere Grid and the start of Lulu's section, but a Lv. Mime works on spells that fail due to lack of MP.Ĭopycat is a Special ability that mimics an ally's previous command for the MP cost of 28. Mime mimics the results of Tifa's and Cait Sith's Limits, so the player won't need to spin the slots reels again. The user can mimic his/her own Limit Breaks, and the Materia can be linked with Support Materia for interesting results, such as linking it with multiple Command Counters to counterattack an attack with multiple Limit Breaks.
Mimic is a command that that copies the last action taken in battle and can be used by equipping the Command Materia Mime or Master Command. Main article: Mime (Final Fantasy VII ability)
