'''Status Effect''' modifies the status of a target in-game entity ([[Special:MyLanguage/Player Character|player character]], [[Special:MyLanguage/NPC|NPC]], [[Special:MyLanguage/Monster|monster]], or a [[Special:MyLanguage/Active Structure|structure]]), altering the target's attributes or behavior. Do not confuse status effects with [[Special:MyLanguage/Aura|auras]], aura is what applies the status effect.

<!--T:3-->
Some status effects can be reverted, while some others apply some permanent changes.

<!--T:4-->
Status effects can be applied by:
* '''[[Special:MyLanguage/Aura|Auras]]''' can apply a status effect for the duration, reverting the status effect when the aura wears off (like {{SkillLink|1000100401}}). Alternatively, auras can sometimes constantly apply some permanent status effect with specific interval until the aura wears off (for example, damage-over-time auras like {{SkillLink|1000800201}}).
* '''Active [[Special:MyLanguage/Skill|Skills]]''' can apply status effect to the skill caster, that will be effective only for the moment when the skill is applied. For example, [[Special:MyLanguage/Recruit|Recruit]]'s {{SkillLink|1000300201}} increases the caster's attack power only for the moment when the skill is used.
* '''Passive [[Special:MyLanguage/Skill|Skills]]''' apply status effects while the skill is available and meets certain conditions. For example, {{SkillLink|1000000301}} provides its status effect only when the player character is wielding a sword.
* '''[[Special:MyLanguage/Equipment|Equipment]] [[Special:MyLanguage/Item|items]]''' can provide status effects for the characters who equip them. For example, {{ItemLink|1022001402}} gives Physical Defense and bonus Maximum Health when a character equips it.
* '''Character [[Special:MyLanguage/Title|Titles]]''' can provide various status effects when the title is active.
