Thread: Does Ribbon protect against status/death in this game?

    Default Does Ribbon protect against status/death in this game?

    Well, I havent found anything concerning this and the game info doesnt help... I suppose since ribbons are a legacy of FF it should protect from status/instant death etc, but if not Id rather use protect rings... Which ones do you think are better by the way? Maybe I should use 2 ribbons and 2 pro rings :P

    Ribbons have never protected against instant death / doom, as far as I know. They don't in FFV, FFVI and FFVII at least. There aren't any ribbons in FFVIII, and I never got the Ribbon auto-ability in FFX.
    everything is wrapped in gray

    There are ribbons in FFVIII but they're part of the pocketstation quest

    According to gamefaqs:

    RIBBON
    "Item that always keeps Mog beside you."
    Useable by Zidane, Vivi, Dagger, Eiko, Quina, Amarant, Steiner, and Freya.
    Strength+1, Magic+3, Spirit+1, Defense+1, Evade+5, Magic Def+1, Magic Eva+4
    Reduces Fire/Ice/Thunder/Holy damage by 100%.
    Absorbs Water/Wind.
    Provides Madeen, Ability Up, and Guardian Mog

    So, unless that is wrong, no Ribbon doesn't protect against status ailments and the like like it did in previous games.
