In addition to the effects described below, it seems that many status ailments temporarily force-equip special "weapons" to cause their graphical changes. Since changing weapons ends the effect of Saber spells, these status ailments will cancel Saber magic as a side effect.
せんとうふのう | Incapacitated | UNCONSCIOUS |
---|---|---|
Effects: Can't interact with anything, counted as dead, and banned from cannon travel. Incapacitated enemies are just plain dead. Symptoms: Ghostly with a cartoonish reaper overhead. Cause with: Damage in excess of current hit points. There are no instant-death skills or spells in this game. Remove with: Revive spell, Angel's Chalice. Royal Jelly can also restore health and remove the status as long as it's used before the character becomes untargetable with normal items (the Round Drop and Omnom Chocolate will simply fail on a character with 0 hit points). Prevention: Avoid damage. Message when inflicted: |
||
[name]に死神がついた | A reaper clung to [name]. | [name] sees the reaper! |
ひだるま | Ablaze | ENGULFED |
Effects: Can't move or act, and health drops continuously. Ablaze also removes Ballooned, Barrelled, and Poisoned status. Given that Ablaze effectively combines Ballooned and Poisoned into a single status ailment, it makes sense that it overrides both of them. Symptoms: On fire, ticking noise as health drops. Cause with: Blaze Wall spell or a weapon enchanted with Flame Saber. Remove with: Remedy spell, Puipui grass. The Petrified, Snowman, Moogled, and Transformed statuses also remove Ablaze. Additionally, this status has a timer (shared with Poisoned) and will wear off when the timer expires. Prevention: Mini Devil Ring Message when inflicted: |
||
[name]は火だるまに! | [name] was set ablaze! | [name]'s engulfed! |
もうどく | Deadly Poison | POISONED |
For convenience, I'll refer to this as "Poisoned" normally. |

モーグリ | Moogle | MOOGLED! |
Effects: Can't attack or use magic. Moogle also removes Ballooned, Barrelled, Transformed, Poisoned, and Ablaze status. Symptoms: Looks like a Moogle. Cause with: Moogle Belt (on allies), one possible effect of Lunatic spell. However, all enemies are immune to Moogle status. Remove with: Remedy spell, Puipui grass, Moogle Belt. Additionally, this status has a timer (shared with Transformed) and will wear off when the timer expires. Prevention: Viledar Ring Message when inflicted: |

||
[name]はたるをかぶった | [name] wore a barrel. | [name]'s barreled! |
チビッコ | Munchkin | SHRUNK |
There are a number of different ways チビッコ could be translated, but it ought to sound cutesy. |
||
Effects: Offense and defense are crippled. Munchkin also removes Transformed status, though that's normally not meaningful. Symptoms: Tiny. Cause with: Munchkin Hammer (on allies), one possible effect of Lunatic spell. However, all enemies are immune to Munchkin status. Remove with: Remedy spell, Puipui grass, Munchkin Hammer. This is one of the few status effects that will not wear off on its own. Prevention: Spirit Bracelet Message when inflicted: |
