What are Status Conditions?
Status conditions are ailments and lingering damage that can be inflicted onto both enemies and party members. They can deal continuous damage and elemental vulnerabilities if ignored in battle. Ailments are cured after a few turns or when a battle ends.
You can use a persona or a consumable item to remove status ailments. Understanding how status conditions work can help your party survive annoying battles, including boss fights.
