The Ajax (Japanese: アイアス) series of Photon Blasts are powerful abilities that can be taught to a mag in Phantasy Star Online 2. They are distinguishable in that they manifest as a winged aberration that shoots missiles of energy at foes.
Phantasy Star Online 2[]
Photon Blasts are a special attack performed by mags. Mags can develop a single Photon Blast upon evolving at Levels 30, 50, and 100.
When activated, the player poses with a hand outstretched into the air while a ring of light expands around them. By holding the Blast hotkey, this pose may be maintained for up to 10 seconds, during which the player is invulnerable. If you summon your own Blast while another player is activating theirs, and the fields overlap, a Blast Chain will be initiated. A Blast Chain extends the duration of all Photon Blasts summoned by all players affected by the Chain. The duration extension depends on the number of players participating in the Chain. Only the leading player may initiate the Photon Blast in a Blast Chain.
Certain effects can improve Photon Blasts, such as the Summoner's PB Advance Skill.

Trivia[]
- The Ajax series has many similarities to the Phantasy Star Online Photon Blast, Pilla. Like Ajax, Pilla used powerful beams of energy in order to vanquish foes.
- Appearance-wise, Ajax seems to resemble a large computer terminal such as Phantasy Star Online's Epsilon.
