how do you recover mp on final fantasy 12?

Question

like after you summon or use a quickening, all of your mp is gone. It kind of sucks. when you really need it. =/

Answer 1

As you walk, your mp gauge will refill. Also, you can unlock different augments on the Licence Board like Inquisitor (Gain MP after dealing damage), Marytr (gain MP after taking damage), Headsman (gain MP after defeating a foe), and Warmage (gain MP after dealing magick damage). Here is the Licence Board, and all augments are in green. Just click to zoom in on the section you need.

Also, Ethers, which can be purchased at the hidden merchant at the Necrohol of Nabudis, restore a small amount of MP. Here is the hidden merchant's location on this map:

It's marked as the "Secret Shop". The merchant will not be visible, just go to the marked section on the map, and an action icon will appear on the screen. Just hit the X button, and he will appear.

Ethers are also found in many treasure chests and dropped from some enemies. Hi-Ethers, which are quite rare, restore all MP. Elixers (vary rare to find) fully restore 1 player's HP and MP, and Megalixers (also vary rare) fully restore all players' HP and MP.

Great question, by the way. I have the guide, so I already knew all this. I'm giving you a star, because I think others will find the info I supplied helpful. Good luck and have fun gaming.
