| rdfs:comment | - A special job ability, also known by the fan-coined term One-hour (formerly Two-hour) or the developer abbreviation SP ability, refers to a set of two job abilities for each job that each have recast times of one hour in Final Fantasy XI. The first ability (sometimes referred to as an SP1 ability to distinguish it from the other) is obtained at job level one. The second ability, sometimes referred to as an SP2 ability, is obtained at job level 96. Both abilities are generally among the most powerful available to the character regardless of level. Because of the high recast time, players tend to reserve them for moments of desperation or for special battles where a little extra damage or protection is needed quick.

| abstract | - A special job ability, also known by the fan-coined term One-hour (formerly Two-hour) or the developer abbreviation SP ability, refers to a set of two job abilities for each job that each have recast times of one hour in Final Fantasy XI. The first ability (sometimes referred to as an SP1 ability to distinguish it from the other) is obtained at job level one. The second ability, sometimes referred to as an SP2 ability, is obtained at job level 96. Both abilities are generally among the most powerful available to the character regardless of level. Because of the high recast time, players tend to reserve them for moments of desperation or for special battles where a little extra damage or protection is needed quick. Unlike most other active and passive abilities, a one-hour is not usable if the job in question is being used as a Support Job (IE: a White Mage with a subjob of Black Mage cannot use Manafont). The Hyper-Notorious Monster known as Absolute Virtue is capable of using all of the SP1 abilities of the 15 jobs present at the time of the Chains of Promathia expansion release, often in frequent succession, with additional effects beyond those of players, rendering it nigh unbeatable until the introduction of the the one-hour summon Alexander and his Perfect Defense ability. Mastering a job lowers the recast timer to 45 minutes. The Evolith system also allows equipment to be created that can lower the recast timer by up to 3 minutes.
