SaGa Frontier 2 Abnormal Status
Abnormal Status is a status with which a participant in combat can be inflicted during battle in SaGa Frontier 2.
Abnormal Status occurs through the use of Arts (both enemy and ally) and lasts for several battle rounds. Some ailments do not wear off until the end of battle, and most can be cured or neutralised with certain spells (most notably, Recovery Breath) or equipment.
