Talk:Status effect

Oh no! The water! I'm in big trouble if I don't fetch it!

"Invincibility"

The way the article handles invincibility is incongruous with the way it's usually handled as a status effect (ex., the "War Hero"-inflicted status in FF8). Invincibility does not include "can't be interrupted" nor "never takes damage" - it has to be something that can be put on and off, and has to be something passive during normal play. Only the Hercules and Barrier Master bits qualify. So, I'm taking all the non-status ones out.Glorious CHAOS! 12:00, February 22, 2010 (UTC)

What about the platinum card effect isn't it a status?Xabryn

358/2 Days Status Effects

I went through and cleaned up the current information on the effects. Whoever initially added the information just took it from the Brady Games guide, but for some reason tried changing the information, but only made it a little confusing. I added a tiny piece of information about the Anti-Status abilities and I rearranged the effects in the order of the corresponding Organization XIII members. I suggest adding a link to this article to the Magic article's See Also list. --ΧƳƵach. 19:40, August 27, 2010 (UTC)

Positive effects

What distinction do we make between positive statuses and passive abilities? (E.g. Regen: I can see how it might possibly be a status in KHD -- if you ignore the fact that it's not named that -- but would you say it's a status in its other appearances?) --Neumannz, The Dark Falcon 07:45, 10 October 2012 (UTC)

if it has a visual effect or is not explicitly equipped. For example, Haste is an ability in days, and a status in dreamdrop."We're werewolves, not swearwolves." (KrytenKoro) 20:10, 10 October 2012 (UTC)

So, what are statuses? Vanish and Aero Shield (in KH) are, because they're induced by commands/magic. And Haste in KH3D, apparently? What else? --Neumannz, The Dark Falcon 20:40, 10 October 2012 (UTC)

Update: KH3D has the following positive effects, which are granted by Spirit magic:

• Protect
• Shell
• Drain
• Haste
• Regen
• Auto-Life
• Combo Assist
• Spirit Roar (maybe?)

Invincibility, Part II

Now I know some Heartless have times where just randomly hitting them doesn't do any damage. The Mad Bumper and Hot Rod, for example. I don't think that counts as invincibility because technically, you just need to find their weak spots or do an attack that they're weak to. But I remember talking about the Armoured Xemnas battles being scripted in KHIIFM, and him having a good minute's worth of frames of invincibility because of how the battles were programmed. Would that count as an Invincibility status, or just outright shoddy programming? Helping others always comes before asking others for help. • TroisNyxÉtienne — 12:55, 9 February 2016 (UTC)

I think we should restrain it to when there is an actual command or ability causing the Invincibility, rather than conflating it with invincibility frames, which is a separate mechanic."We're werewolves, not swearwolves." (KrytenKoro) 01:55, 10 February 2016 (UTC)

Stun/KO

Just putting this here, if someone wants to translate it real quick [1]."We're werewolves, not swearwolves." (KrytenKoro) 13:39, 3 March 2016 (UTC)

Unchained

Not real clear yet on what these do, since I don't have them on my own medals, but I've seen:

• Poison
• Paralyze
• Sleep

I got hit with Paralyze earlier today and it made me unable to use the first Medal I had equipped. Don't know what happens when used on enemies. Rex Ronald Rilander (talk) 03:24, 14 April 2016 (UTC)

From in-game help:

The following sword/shield icons represent status effects. These status effects temporarily change the STR/DEF of the Medals in your Keyblade based on their attributes. These effects have 3 tiers, and the tier number will be displayed on the icon.

The other icons represent status ailments.

   Increased strength

   Decreased strength

   Increased defense

   Decreased defense

   Poisoned. Damage taken during every turn.

   Sleeping and cannot move until effect wears off. Sleeping enemies will wake up if attacked.

   Paralyzed and sometimes rendered immobile.

The strength and defense increases also have attribute variants; all strength and defense modifiers have tier variants. There's icons for most of these on the khu wiki."We're werewolves, not swearwolves." (KrytenKoro) 18:37, 13 May 2016 (UTC)

Lower HP in KHIII Re Mind

As I'm sure many of you know, three of the new bosses in Re Mind have attacks that lower your maximum HP. It does seem to be treated like a status effect since your HP goes back to normal after a short while, and using an item like an Elixer restores it immediately. What name should it be given? And should it be included in this page (under the negative section of course)? Come to think of it, one of the cheats in Re:Coded did this too. Lord Fawful (talk) 23:29, 17 February 2020 (UTC)

There's plenty of conventions to go with if we lack one. You can always resort to Kingdom Hearts's big brother Final Fantasy. Final Fantasy XII has a debuff called "Disease", although it's gradual. Final Fantasy XIII-2's "Wounded" mechanic is probably the one most on-point since it functions virtually the same way. Or you can simply try and describe the debuff with the simplest wording, "Max HP Reduction."--Samoa Joe (talk) 17:25, 18 February 2020 (UTC)

We shouldn't be using a name from a Final Fantasy status with similar effect. I think "Max HP Reduction" would work as a placeholder until we get an official name. TheSilentHero 17:31, 18 February 2020 (UTC)

I've actually never played a Final Fantasy game before, just so you know. Lord Fawful (talk) 18:26, 18 February 2020 (UTC)
