In Final Fantasy VIII, "Rapture (レビテガ)" is a Limit Break for the character Selphie Tilmitt. It is a "Slot" type ability, randomly triggered when Selphie has low health or is under the effect of "Aura". Rapture's effect is to remove all enemies from the battle, securing a victory, unless the enemies are immune to "Blow Away". This skill ignores "Reflect". However, certain enemies, such as Grat, Vysage, Lefty, Righty, Cactuar, Tonberry, Esthar Soldier (Terminator), UFO?, PuPu, and bosses (except Oilboyles, whom Selphie can't fight in a boss encounter), are immune to Rapture. The frequency of Rapture appearing depends on Selphie's level and Crisis Level. The higher the Crisis Level, the greater the chance of Rapture appearing. While Rapture can make winning battles easy, it's less reliable than Selphie's other Limit Break, "The End", which works on enemies immune to eject, but is rarer than Rapture. The skill's Japanese name is “レビテガ,” related to the “Float” spell.
