Cures one character of Stone outside of combat.
Stone is a nasty Status Ailment that you will start to encounter in the Earth Cave. Wh.MAGES can learn SOFT to cure Stone, but you'll need SOFT Potions regardless, in case the Wh.MAGE is turned to Stone himself.
You won't need a lot of SOFT Potions, but remember to stock up in ElfLand before leaving for Melmond, as that town has no Item Shop.

Cures one character of Stone. Cannot be used in combat unless Battle Support is turned on.
The Gold Needle cures characters of Stone, a nasty Status Ailment that you will thankfully only see rarely. Even if you have a White Mage with Stona, you should have a few of these around. After all, there won't be anyone to heal a Stone White Mage. Gold Needles are expensive, but you won't run into Stone until you fight Cockatrices deep in the Terra Cavern, so you can hold off for a while. Just remember that you need to stock up before heading to Melmond, as that town has no Item Shop.

Gold Needles are a very useful Item that cures Stone status. It takes at least Esuna 5 to do the same, and Stone is definitely a status you want to heal, so keep one or two of these around if you're liable to be petrified. Note that Gold Needles are useless in combat, since a Character can only use Items on themselves, and Stone Characters don't get to use Items at all.
