Paralysis Status - Final Fantasy II (Famicom)

Paralysis

Prevents a creature from acting or evading attacks; cured with Basuna 4

Monsters Antlion, Ghast, Ghoul, Great Malboro, Land Ray, Malboro, Malboro Terra, Mantis Devil, Stunner, Zombie Borghen

Paralysis is similar to Sleep, only harder to get rid of. It won't go away as easily, and requires Basuna 4 to cure. Paralyzed creatures take no actions and cannot evade attacks, making them very vulnerable to physical assaults.
