Protection Chart
There are 8 elemental defense and 8 special defense, some of these protections are on many pieces of armor/accessories found in the game that grants you protection to one or many elements/statues listed below. Some icons bellow never show up on the status screen since no armor/accessories offer those protections. Thus the player can never have their protection, unless the player uses a cheating device.
