Druid MP = 150% Int
Bard

Paladin		 MP = 100% Int

For a list of the locations of the reagents, check the Britannian Yellow Pages and the side quests page.

In the table below, spells are grouped by type, then sorted by the gold cost of reagents. Indeed, what determines the availability of a spell are not magic points, but the gold to buy reagents.

NES port spells

Classes and MP

Remember that in the NES version "Int" and "Dex" labels are swapped.

The Shepherd has no Magic Points, but she is the only character who can use the Sheep Flute, an item that casts the Sleep spell on all opponents.

In the NES version, when the Stranger becomes an Avatar, his/her maximum MP promptly becomes 99. This holds true for every profession. In the subsequent episodes of Ultima, the Avatar will always be the character with the highest MP.

Profession MP
Mage MP = 200% Int
Druid MP = 150% Int
Bard
Ranger
Paladin		 MP = 100% Int
Tinker MP = 50% Int
Shepherd MP = 0; Flute
Fighter MP = 0


Reagents

Fungus location NES
  • ash
  • garlic
  • ginseng
  • silk

Spell list

The GP cost of reagents does not consider Fungus and Manroot, that can be obtained for free.

Spell Types:

  • Field: spells that can be used outside battle;
  • Support: battle spells that target the allies;
  • Debuff: battle spells that target the enemies but deal no damage;
  • Attack: battle spells that damage the enemies.
