Veil status raises resistance to debuffing spells; when a negative status effect is "inflicted", it will instead be neutralized and the Veil status removed. Veil can be cast through the spell of the same name learned by the Synergist role, or through the shroud Aegisol outside of battle.

FFTA Astra Status Symbol

Astra costs 8 MP to cast, and is learned by the Templar (from the Save the Queen) and Alchemist (from the Sage Crosier) job classes for 200 AP. The Hermetic Ezel Berbier also knows the ability automatically. When cast, Astra grants its positive status to all units in an X-shaped area. It costs 8 MP to cast, has a range of 4, and is stealable through the ability Steal: Ability.

The buff's presence is often indicated by a blue triangular prism over the unit's head.

Final Fantasy Tactics A2: Grimoire of the Rift

Template:Sideicon The Templar, Moogle Knight, and Alchemist classes can give units the Astra status. Al-Cid Margrace, as an Agent, can also give a female unit Astra with the Reception ability. Astra can also be granted to units by the Shield of Steel Opportunity Command, which affects the user and the three ally surrounding it.

Astra not only prevents targets from being inflicted with the Doom status, but targets that are already inflicted with Doom can be saved by Astra if Astra is used before the countdown reaches zero.
