Stone IV (Final Fantasy XIV)

Stone IV is a spell from Final Fantasy XIV that deals single-target earth-aspected damage to a target. It is the final Stone-type spell available to White Mages before upgrading to the Glare-line of spells.
==Use==
Stone IV deals moderate damage to a single target. Starting from level 64, Stone IV functions as the White Mage's primary method of inflicting direct damage to a single target for Stormblood content, as well as early Shadowbringers content.
Combining Stone IV with at the start of the boss encounter is a common strategy used to unleash a large amount of DPS at the battle's start. After the opening portion of a boss encounter, players should attempt to perform Stone IV at any opportune time when healing is not required. In addition, players must also attempt to weave in their OGCD action when performing their Stone IV rotation throughout an encounter.
Once the player reaches White Mage level 72, Stone IV automatically upgrades to and is no longer usable outside of content synced below level 72.
