"Oh no! You're poisoned, Sempai! You should heal yourself!"

Contents

Overview

Effect tags are basically additions to an attack (or sometimes the entire purpose of one). Any attack that does something other than or as well as raw instant damage has an effect.

Status effects do not always work. First, the attack can miss as normal (although Ailment and Recovery-type attacks don't miss, so dedicated debuffs and positive statuses are less prone to this). Second, each effect has one of three effectiveness ratings. This effectiveness only changes how often the status is added.

Low Odds (Represented by a 1) effects activate about 40% of the time the attack hits. They cost very little to add.

Medium Odds (Represented with a 2) effects activate about 70% of the time that the attack hits. They are fairly reliable. They cost a little more and are more expensive for higher level attacks to add.

High Odds (Represented by a 3) effects always activate if the attack hits. Their cost is very dependent on the power of the attack. Attacks with a power level of 0 with High Odds effects to try to keep the cost down are allowed, and have many examples in canon.

Resisting the element to which the status effect is attached reduces the effective 'odds' of the attack. Resisting drops it by 1 (so if you resist Fire, you can never gain the Burn effect if someone casts Agilao on you, for example). Being weak against the element, in contrast, increases the 'odds' of the attack by 1. Certain buffs and debuffs (Tetraja and Curse, for example) also play a role in how much an effect is applied or not; their effect is an amount less than 1, but still reasonably significant.

Most status effects last for four turns unless removed. Others have a one-time effect. Re-adding the status effect resets the counter; it does not make you suffer it twice or add the durations.
