Shine


 * "Dazzle foes and strike decisively."



Location
Shine is hiding in the upper left hollow tree stump in Contigo, and is brought out into the open via the Force Psynergy. The big potential snag to getting this Djinni is that the Orb of Force that provides the Force Psynergy in the first place is only acquirable as an item in the inventory of Isaac's party when they join Felix's party late in The Lost Age... provided any form of Password data transfer is in effect so as to register that the Orb of Force has been collected from the previous game's Fuchin Falls Cave to begin with. The Orb of Force can otherwise be missed, or not present in Isaac's party at all as a result of The Lost Age being played through without password data transfer at all; if the game file is saved after Isaac's party joins but the Orb of Force is not present, it will be impossible to acquire Shine without a hacking device.

Description
When Set, it increases base HP by 9, base Attack by 3, base Defense by 3, and base Agility by 2.

When Shine's battle effect is used, a holographic image of a Mars Djinni briefly backs up while emitting several beams of light at various angles, and then charges through the target. The target is hit by a Mars-based attack equal in power to the user's normal physical attack with an additional 60 damage points added to the result, and then for each enemy on the enemy side (not just the target) there is a chance it will be afflicted with Delusion.

Ability analysis
Shine is certainly unique among Djinn for having the chance to apply its secondary effect to all enemies and not just the target of the physical assault, and it is very obviously a direct upgrade to the Mars Djinni Fever, which adds 30 bonus damage but only has a chance to apply the Delusion effect to the target itself. Even so, Delusion remains not a great secondary effect because it does not decrease the accuracy of any ability of the enemy that is not its normal physical attack. The Djinn Scorch and Char are equally useful because of their chance to inflict the far better Stun effect, and even though Shine adds 10 more bonus damage in comparison, even it falls out to the Mars Djinni Fury, which adds 10 bonus damage beyond that and is the Mars Djinni with the highest added damage rating.

Name Origin
