Menu explanation

Quistishominglaser — Homing Laser, a Blue Magic.

In Final Fantasy VIII, Quistis can learn Blue Magic (青魔法, Ao Mahō?) as her Limit Break. She learns new Limit Break attacks by the use of certain items. Her attacks get more powerful the higher the Crisis Level is (the more disadvantageous position she finds herself in).

Teaching every Blue Magic spell to Quistis in the Steam version earns the player the Blue Magic Master achievement. This achievement is not present in Final Fantasy VIII Remastered.
