Status Effects

Description

Status effects can be inflicted on your character. Most of the time, a monster casts a skill on you, causing you to be cursed. When that occurs, an animation will appear above your head. Different curses will affect your stats in different ways, and can be really deadly at times. Also, when you get cursed, a message will appear in your chat bar, stating that you have been cursed, and will also state the effect of the curse.
To remove a curse, you can either wait for it to wear off, or use a cure potion. There are different cure potions for different curses. There is also the All Cure Potion which, as implied by its name, cures all status curses. The last method to remove a curse is to have a Priest in your party to cast Dispel on you.
