Stun (status)

"Stunned! I can't move! (But I need to scratch my nose!)"

―Natalie stunned, Epic Battle Fantasy 5

Stun is a recurring negative status effect in the Epic Battle Fantasy series, introduced in Epic Battle Fantasy 2. It is associated with the Thunder element, and its icon is a yellow circle with a lightning bolt crossing it. It prevents the victim from taking a turn and dodging incoming attacks. Additional application of the status will increase the duration of the ailment, but won't affect anything else.

Unleash with Blizzard — 80% chance, 2x length.
Thunderbolt — 10% chance, 1x length, 5 hits. Thunderclap skill bonus boosts per-hit Stun chance to 25%.
