Bad Luck (status)

View source
"Luck is decreased in status effects, critical hits, accuracy, and foe catching. Speeds up doom."
―Bad Luck's unspecific hover-over tip, Epic Battle Fantasy 5

Bad Luck is a negative status effect in Epic Battle Fantasy 5, and the opposite of the Good Luck status. It is associated with the Dark element, and its icon is a black and red horseshoe pointing down. It affects many aspects (and always multiplicatively), but none drain the status' length.

Random status has a 5% chance to become 9 stacks of Bad Luck.
