    Switch to JP client. They are -ra/-ga/-ja there.

    This arguement came up during the Beta (and devolved into an ugly trollfest sadly), but SE responded and explained why they decided to use numerals instead of 'ga' and 'ra' suffixes with spell names in FFXIV. From what I remember, the reason given was because in FFXIV spells are unique with no specific 'tiers', hence using numbers to identify stronger versions was chosen over the modern 'ga/ra/ja' system.

    Incidentally the earlier FF titles used numbers to identify spell strength - FFVIII was the first FF game to feature 'ra' and 'ga' type spells in English, and later FF titles continued that (and to confuse matters even more, FFXI used both - numbers to identify a spell's 'tier' in strength, with 'ra', 'ga' and 'ja' usually being used to show that spell was an AoE or multi-target spell.). But I digress.

    It's kind of silly that we get the numeral end of something even though all the other english FF games have the normal suffix. For a while I thought that they were just saving those types of suffix's for level cap raising. So then there'd be curaga 1/2/3 and etc. But I guess that's wrong.

    How is it silly? It's just another way of doing something and remember in FFXI? We had Spells that went up to V like Aero V, so what they gonna put? Billzaraba?
