The rate of Steal success per item by a character of equal level to the monster; these rates will change based on the level difference between the Stealing character and the monster; hover over a percentage to see the base rate (which is based on being 10 levels higher than the monster); this rate is multiplied by 80%±2% per level difference; only one item can be stolen, so an increase in level may in some cases decrease the effective Steal rate of items later in the list
Steal
A monster will never drop an item if an item was Stolen from it during the battle; only monsters present in the final battle of a multi-battle sequence may drop items

The Hi-Potion is a more potent version of the Potion, healing 90–-180 HP to one Character. They can be fairly useful in combat in the midgame, though you won't find that many and they probably aren't worth buying.

Potion restores 250 HP to the target.

Potions are a staple healing Item for quite a while. Obviously, X-Potions are better, but they're also quite rare. Healing Items are mostly replaced by Magic healing once you gain access to Espers, but you never know when you may need a quick Potion.
