Bio (Status Effect)


Description[edit]

Bio (Status Effect).png Bio is a harmful status effect that erodes the skin of its victim, making them lose focus until it wears off or is removed.
Afflicted characters experience a certain amount of Damage Over Time and suffer a reduction to their attack strength.
The amount of DoT damage Bio inflicts is determined by the afflicting ability, or the caster's Dark Magic Skill if inflicted by a spell.
Bio effects generally achieve higher levels of damage (through both base damage and DoT) than Dia spells.
As with other forms of DoT, damage dealt by the Bio effect will wake characters under the effect of sleep.
