General Information

"FX" stands for "effects" and can be triggered ingame via spells.txt or questscripts.txt. There are SFX (sound effects) and VFX (visual effects), most FX have both.

There exists a more-or-less Complete Sacred 2 FX List with screenshots, however it's tedious to browse.

The list follows a categorizing System for FX:

  • Standard FX refer to FX working both if triggered at the spell routine (fxTypeSpell) and the casting routine (fxTypeCast, fxTypeCastSpecial) of spells.txt
  • Partial FX refer to FX working on the spell routine (fxTypeSpell), but only partially on the casting routine (fxTypeCast, fxTypeCastSpecial) of spells.txt
  • Spell FX refer to FX working only if triggered on the spell routine (fxTypeSpell) of spells.txt
  • Casting FX refer to FX working only if triggered on the casting routine (fxTypeCast, fxTypeCastSpecial) of spells.txt
  • Scripted FX refer to FX which can't be assigned to a Combat Art via spells.txt

However it should be noted that some FX aren't categorized in that system. These include:

  • Hidden FX which are built into the spellclass and/or EiStateName
  • Auto-Trigger FX which are triggered automatically on certain events like debuffs
  • Pure SFX which have no VFX
  • Stable Environmental FX which initially weren't intended to be used by spells and are independent on the casters hand rotation
  • Unstable Environmental FX which initially weren't intended to be used by spells and are dependent on the casters hand rotation


FX Lists

There is a (subjective) ranking system going on:

  • 1: Basically Unusable
  • 2: Subtle stuff, mostly casting FX
  • 3: Standard stuff, not exciting, not bad either
  • 4: Above Average, interesting for mods
  • 5: Exceptionally stunning, maybe even over-the-top
