Restores HP and MP. If you ask a save moogle, he will restore everyone's HP and MP.
Description
The Tent is healing item in Final Fantasy IX that is used with a save moogle to restore 50% of the party's HP and MP, or in battle to fully heal a target but with the chance of inflicting them with status abnormalities.
A Tent is used on the field when talking to Moguo on the world map (blow the Moogle's Flute) or a save moogle inside a location, to restore 50% of maximum HP and MP. Using a Tent with a moogle still restores health to Zombiefied party members. A Tent can be used in combat to fully heal, with a 50% chance to inflict Poison, Darkness, and Silence. Tents can be used on either an enemy or a party member. A Tent does not revive fallen party members or restore status ailments that persist.

Use[]
Tents are useful items for both battle and field. They restore half the party's HP and MP when used with a moogle; the player can use two in a row to fully replenish everyone. It is useful to use the party's MP-consuming skills at will when exploring, and then replenish the party's MP at save moogles. There is always a save moogle before a boss, and so the player can ready themselves. Using a Tent with a moogle is the only way to heal a Zombiefied party member on the field. However, using a Tent does not cure ailments that persist after battle.
Tents can be used in battle to heal a party member, but they may get inflicted with statuses unless they protect themselves with support abilities. This trait can be used offensively against enemies, such as against Gizamaluke.
