Alephan's Enlightenment

### Description

[Divine Skill] For 3 turns, spells cast by a single chosen ally that usually target all foes will instead be focused on a single foe at increased intensity.

**Alephan's Enlightenment** is the Scholar divine skill in *Octopath Traveler*.

## Effect

Applies the  **Alephan's Enlightenment** buff onto a single ally for **3 turns**.

For the duration of the effect, all non-divine Elemental Attack Skills that target "all foes" will instead target a single enemy but deal double (×2) damage. *Note*: This does *not* apply to standard attacks, Physical Attack Skills or other Divine Skills.

Divine Skill: Can only be executed while at Boost level MAX, which requires the expenditure of **3 BP**.

* Note:  does **not** synergize with *Alephan's Enlightenment*. It will **not** let a spell boosted by Alephan's hit all targets, nor does Alephan's consider skills buffed to hit all enemies by Sealticge's to be valid for the purposes of its damage-boosted effect. The effects of either skill only applies if a spells **base** effect meets its respective requirements.
