Causes time to stop, halting target's actions.
Description
Stop is a Time Magic spell in Final Fantasy V. It inflicts the stop effect to one target, which halts their movement for a duration and prevents them from evading attacks.
Stop is also an enemy ability that can be cast by Calofisteri, Carbuncle, Black Warlock, Fury, Omniscient, and Ricard Mage.
Obtained[]
Stop can be purchased at Karnak or Istory for 580 gil. Karnak is the earliest it can be obtained.
Use[]
Stop can be a very crippling status effect when applied. It is similar to casting Sleep, though casting Stop means an enemy will be incapable of moving even when hit by a physical attack. As such, Stop can be an effective way to cripple an enemy who is dealing heavy damage. The biggest drawback of the spell is that many enemies and bosses are immune.
