In battle, units are capable of inflicting negative ailments on the enemy, and the enemy can do the same to a player's units. There are various use-items that can remove these negative status ailments and keep a player's party in top shape. There are also spheres that can be equipped that allows units to inflict status ailments with normal attacks, or increase a unit's resistance to specific status ailments. Status ailments (and boosts) do not carry over between battles.
