Final Fantasy Wiki

Poison is a status in Final Fantasy X-2 that causes the afflicted to take damage over time; the damage lost per increment is ~3% of max HP. Poison does not wear off after battle. Poison does not tick when under the effects of Stop. The visual indicator is the same as in Final Fantasy X: green bubbles above the afflicted target's head (or body for creatures that lack a distinctive head).

Enemies[]

Many bosses are immune to most ailments, the exceptions being Flame Dragon, Garik and Ronso Youth, Leblanc, Logos, and Ormi, and Yaibal.

Reptiles, basilisks, and bandoleers, plants, undead, tonberries, and machina are immune to Poison.

The following normal enemies are immune to Poison:

  1. Flailing Ochu is not technically fully immune, but has such high resistance that Poison is unlikely to take effect.
