what's the most annoying status effect
Confusion, I don't like my team attacking me, they usually cause serious damage.
i voted confuse, but zombie and petrify are right up there.
The temperature ailments from FFIX. If a character is frozen, he invariably shatters and dies the next time he gets hit. If he's overheated, he'll die the next time he takes action. Not too nice.
I voted other, like Kawaii for the temperature things. The ones in FF9 were a pain until you wasted gems to equip the prevention ability for them. Also the frozen thing from FF6 was a pain as well.
I hated the Heat status effect...the enemies always inflict that status effect after I've inputted commands. ><Quote:

Virus, from FFIX. It stops your characters from getting exp at the end of battle. I don't think there is any protection against it, and it is VERY annoying as you get much EXP in (SPOILER)Memoria
I'd say Petrify 'cos if you fight something that inflicts it on your entire party, thats it game over. You can at least escape from battle if you effected by the others. Unless it's a boss battle that is. :D
Confusion and Zombie (the ailment in FF5 which reduces zombified character's HP to 0 and has him/her attack my other party members) have always been the most annoying status ailments to me. Many status problems in FF6 also really annoyed me. :mad: As for the Virus status in FF9, I kind of liked that since it allowed me to do some strategic leveling up. I just let those who were already on high levels get infected by Virus, and the guys on lower levels got EXP faster that way.
FFIX's Heat was very annoying, since it was impossible to cure (although a Remedy/Elixir may have worked, I'm not sure) and tended to be inflicted after you'd chosen the character's move for that turn. Unavoidable KO's are not fun.
Stop's also right up there, as there's no curative item. Again, a Remedy or Elixir might do the trick, but I can't remember.
Confusion... I really hate that... Petrification's really annoying as well- along with stop and slow.
I voted "other". I'm with the majority that said the heat and freeze things from FFIX. That was annoying and all my people usually died.
I actually like Berserk, it helps me. Especially in FFTA. The most annoying would be confusion. You can't control them AND they attack you... That bugged the heck out of me.
I voted "other" for zombie. It causes your character to lose all HP, and only 1 item cures it. Zombie causes your characters to attack each other. The only good thing is that they make good human sheilds (they take an unlimited number of damage). It's still annoying though.
confusion.i hate it! :mad2:
