'''Slow''' {{J|スロウ|Surou}} is a recurring [[status effect]] from the [[Final Fantasy series|''Final Fantasy'' series]]. Its exact effects vary from game to game, but it always results in a character being able to perform fewer actions in a given amount of game time. In the original ''[[Final Fantasy]]'', it results in a character scoring fewer hits in battle, while in ''[[Final Fantasy Tactics]]'', it results in a character getting fewer turns.

FFVI Slow status

Terra slowed in Final Fantasy VI.

Slow (スロウ, Surou?) is a recurring status effect from the Final Fantasy series. Its exact effects vary from game to game, but it always results in a character being able to perform fewer actions in a given amount of game time. In the original Final Fantasy, it results in a character scoring fewer hits in battle, while in Final Fantasy Tactics, it results in a character getting fewer turns.

Sometimes, this status effect is accompanied by a spell of the same name which causes the status effect. Slow usually can only be cured with time, but inflicting Haste on a slowed character may remove the status as well.

Appearances

The Slow status reduces enemy Hit Rate.
