Status Conditions Overview
What are Status Ailments?
Status Ailments are conditions cast upon targets that have adverse effects to them during battle. These ailments usually last for a couple of turns until they are cured or the target recovers.
The effects they cause may include losing a turn, taking damage overtime, or lowering a stat. Some spells can cause two or more of these setbacks to take effect.
List of Status Ailments
| List of All Status Ailments | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Down | Dizzy | Freeze | Shock | Poison |
| Charm | Fear | Rage | Panic | Distress |
Down
The Down status can only be done to a target should you exploit their weakness. Hitting their elemental or physical weakness will cause them to get knocked prone and lose their turn, and will give you 1 More action!
Dizzy
Much like the Down status, the Dizzy status also leads to 1 More action and will knock enemies prone, but can only be inflicted by critical attacks. Being Dizzy will force a target to lose their turn.
Freeze
The Freeze status causes the target to be encased in ice, rendering them unable to move and lose a turn. During this state, the target will be more likely to be hit with a critical hit.

How to Cure Status Ailments
Use Skills that Cure Status Ailments
One of the most prominent ways to cure status ailments is by using spells that do so. Skills like Me Patra or Amrita, though costly in terms of MP, will more than suffice when it comes to keeping your party free of any ailment.

| Patra | Dispels Panic, Fear, and Distress (1 ally). | 3 SP |
| Me Patra | Dispels Panic, Fear, and Distress for the entire party. | 6 SP |
