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

Contents

Overview

Effects 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 Recovery-type attacks don't miss, so 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. Luck also plays a role in how much an effect is applied or not.

Low Odds (Represented by a 1) effects activate about 40% of the time the attack hits. They cost very little to add, and it's a flat value; it costs the same to make a 3 attack Low Odds as an 8. They're nice perks but you can't count on them.

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.

Two factors modify these odds. Resisting a status effect 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). Furthermore, the luck of one's opponent can modify the chances up or down significantly; all negative effects have a greater chance of success against unlucky characters, while the opposite is true of positive effects. Consider the best use of such abilities carefully.

Most status effects last for three 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.
