Why Are Vision Abilities Greyed Out in Final Fantasy Resonance?

Why is an ability greyed out?

In the photographed PC menu, abilities from a character’s currently equipped Vision appear dimmed with an E marker because those abilities already take effect. The in-game tutorial says they do not need to be equipped separately. A manually slotted ability can also display E, so inspect both the Vision and the character’s slots.

Read the state before spending AP

The photographed tutorial and PC menu show different ways an ability can be active. This comparison keeps the marker’s possible contexts separate rather than treating every dimmed row as an error.

For example, the walkthrough shows a character wearing Leah while a previously learned Warrior of Light ability is selectable. The result belongs to that character’s own learned abilities; do not assume another character has the same unlocks.

How do you check your setup?

1. Open Equipment & Abilities from the Main Menu and choose the character whose row is dimmed.
2. Check that character’s equipped Vision and existing ability slots. An E marker alone does not distinguish every source of an active ability.
3. For a selectable learned ability from another Vision, choose an empty slot and review the AP counter. The illustrated PC setup uses a character-specific AP budget.

The photographed tutorial supports the automatic effect of the equipped Vision. It does not establish every platform prompt or the reason for every disabled row; those cases remain To be confirmed. See the Visions overview for the system, party change for the active lineup, and battle basics for combat.
