Dispel (Final Fantasy XII)

Dispel is a White Magicks spell in Final Fantasy XII, both in the original PlayStation 2 version and the Zodiac re-releases. It is a single-target status enhancement removal spell that also removes Slow and Stop. A multi-target version of the spell also exists, called Dispelga.
The Zodiac versions also have a Dispel Mote item (bought from the Bhujerba–Balfonheim Skyferry route) where the spell can be used with a consumable without cast time.
==Obtained==
Dispel's license costs 40 License Points in the Zodiac versions, where the spell is found in Tomb of Raithwall's Royal Passage. The treasure chest appears in the top right dead end. Royal Passage is reached by going continuously forward (left on the map) from the entrance to the tomb until coming across the second way stone, and then going up
In the original version, Dispel's license costs 45 LP and the spell is bought for 4500 gil from Rabanastre and Nalbina Fortress after defeating the boss at Mt Bur-Omisace, and from Phon Coast.
In the Zodiac versions, Dispel can be used by the job classes White Mage and Red Battlemage.
==Mechanics==
Dispel removes Lure, Reflect, Protect, Shell, Haste, Slow, Stop, Bravery, Faith, Berserk, Regen, Float, Invisible, and Libra.
It does not remove enemies' Invisible, because invisible foes cannot be targeted (the player can reflect magick off their party to reveal them, however), nor Reverse, which is considered a status ailment rather than an enhancement. Though other games in the Final Fantasy series consider Berserk a negative status, Berserk is considered a positive status in Final Fantasy XII and so it is removed with Dispel rather than with Esuna. Dispel does not remove permanent buffs, such as Reflect from a character wearing a Mirror Mail.
Dispel costs 16 MP to cast without Channeling licenses.
==Use==
Dispel is a status enhancement removal spell the player can easily set up via the gambit system (Foe:Any→Dispel works well). Rare Game typically spawn with status buffs already in place, making casting Dispel on them as the opening move a good idea. However, some enemies' statuses cannot be removed and the caster can waste their MP by constantly using Dispel against certain groups that keep buffing themselves.
